Outside of “so bad it’s good,” I’ll say that it’s a “at least bad made me feel an emotion” mindset.

It’s probably an ok but like with most marvel movies the fanbase is super defensive

Also I’ll never get the stance of mediocre/boring movie is worse than bad movie. Same with games.
The latter will get memed and ripped apart for years by fans/critic and it’s always used as ammunition against creators. Why would anyone want that?

I liked the movie but the marketing felt like it was way overhyping how “different” it was to other MCU movies.

From the previews and plot synopses alone, The Eternals feels extremely pretentious to me.

It just screams “we got someone who does pretenious and boring indie movies to make a high-budget superhero flick.” Doesn’t help that the entire movie ended up being overshadowed by the post-credits scene with Blade making his MCU debut, as well as Spider-Man: No Way Home coming out a month later.

So yeah, what’s an Eternal? _r/joking

All these newer Marvel movies just look the same to me honestly

@Angrybrony
Probably. I thought it looked fine. Too long, but i think most Marvel movies are too long.

@Dex Stewart
well those people are dumb and wrong.

@Khauntzat Adramélekhizarovich Searmaev
People thought it was slow and the characters were uninteresting. That’s the general thinking.

I not understand the Eternals hate.

@Sparx
I’m focusing more on the sillier complaints I’ve heard.

@Thanotos Omega
Edgy

@Meanlucario
I thought most people complained about how long they were and the large amounts of noticeable CGI.

@Meanlucario
I can’t taste, ME3 hasn’t had any download progress for 3 days, and i can’t get my coffee or some food because of the loud crowed of kids here, so yes, venting my hatred for the purist pieces of filth who threaten the very foundations of narrative art, instead of piling that in with all the other crap i have to just deal with was indeed a thing i felt compelled to do,

@Don’t
Nah.

@Thanotos Omega
You need to let it out?

@MeanlucarioMany many many people think that an adaptation must be a retelling of the original story, not a new take on it, these worthless braindead pieces of rot, have no fucking clue how culture works, how stories change overtime as new people put a spin on them, they don’t deserve to be seen outside of a basement shackled to a wall living on fish heads, much less have their critiques given serious consideration,

@Don’t
How?

@Don’t

Tolkien ruined everything.

@Meanlucario
I can’t honestly blame the film for too much. The development was a mess, that not even the actors knew if it was going to be 3 films or 2. It does suck that Guillermo del Toro wasn’t able to stay, I would’ve love to see his take on the Hobbit.

I honestly defend the Hobbit films quite a lot.

Where they way different from the books? Yes. But, so was LoTRs. Like, outside the broad strokes the LoTRs films were vastly different than how things went on the page.

I don’t get the complaint about the Hobbit movies adding in references to LotR. They are connected, Tolkien just didn’t think he was going to make a sequel, so they aren’t that connected outside of Bilbo going on an adventure and his ring. Whether you thought the additions were done well or not is another story. My point is that it would be very weird if Jackson’s The Hobbit didn’t build-up what would happen in LotR.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
Blame the commercials. They focus heavily on the South Park esque elements of it.

The only thing that made my interest dwindle or fade away was Tower of God.

@Penguin Dragneel
I don’t find it much like Southpark.

This talk about Deltarune and Smiling Friends reminds me of my thoughts towards Squid Game. I see it so much on Youtube and I’ve seen it used to death in memes that my interest in checking it out dwindles by the day when I was never even that interested in the first place
