thoughts?

Ngl I can’t say I’m particularly interested. Never seen these ppl before and no clue what the bad guy is or tie to the MCU will be made.

Hope that changes but for now I’ll just await Loki and BWDO.

Haven’t watched the trailer yet but just from looking at the thumbnail I’m probably not going to be too interested in it.

Terra

Could make interesting additions.
Not excited for it whatsoever though, I'm more excited about a few other upcoming projects.

Notice they said 'Captain Rogers', because Captain America is Sam Wilson. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I like the Concept of the Eternals but it just seems so spread out with so many “MAIN” characters

DrZola

Eternals were a Jack Kirby passion project way back when he returned from DC (I believe after his New Gods comic fizzled, which seems a lot like Eternals).

Eternals have popped up several times in Marvel comics, but have had a tough time gaining traction. Last I recall, they were all killed. Then all resurrected.

Their relative anonymity is a wildcard that could go a couple of ways: like GotG, a less well-known property, they could explode into the scene with fresh takes on heroes pulled from a blank slate; or they might be the same type of project as the comics—redundant, derivative, boring. Or worse: preachy.

One key element missing that was in GotG: James Gunn. Like him or not, he’s a dialogue genius.

With all that said, this trailer doesn’t spark this lifelong Marvel fan’s interest. It has an odd vibe. The predictable comic clip at the end doesn’t stir me either. It feels forced.

I hope it is great. But...eventually, Marvel is going to lay an egg.

This is the first MCU trailer that didn’t have me screaming “TAKE MY MONEY!”

I’ve never been a fan of the Eternals anyway. Kirby’s original concept was fine, but these characters should have existed in their own universe to explore more adult themes as Kirby intended. Once they got shoe-horned into the 616, they became just another super-race like the Inhumans or Kree, having to fight pointless battles with other superheroes and villains while losing anything that made them interesting.

Unfortunately, since Marvel does such a great job of tying everything together, this will be important in the grand scheme of things and thus warrant being seen, but it did not grab me out of the gates.

It kinda reminds me of Marvel's Inhumans

Don’t insult the movie this early

I’m not a huge eternals fan, but I do know this movie could be decent. Basically, it’ll be perfect gods (eternals) vs ugly gods (?) (deviants)
However, I’m only interested in the celestials that will probably pop up in the movie. That said, I really don’t care about the eternals that much. I would be WAY more hyped if they announced a movie on any of the marvel ‘supermen’ (Hype, sentry, BM, gladiator)

Tesladon

I’d rather have another season of Daredevil or Jessica Jones.

Dr.strange multiverse of madness is what i really want.

But imo MCU has never made one bad movie.

Eternals will be 🔥it will probably turn into a great movie that you didnt know you needed

I collected Guardians and Eternals as a kid. So I'm excited to see some heavyweight characters that others may not be familiar with. Plus I think Guardians will introduce some huge storylines to the MCU that are more mainstream.

FYI... Marvel execs was "blown away" by how good the movie turned out.
Different can be a great thing sometimes... but we shall see. 😌

And when exactly has Marvel Execs been a reliable Indication of a good movie? It's not exactly a large pool of opinions there.

Fair enough.
All I know is I was a fan growing up. And people said the same things about the first Guardians movie if they were unfamiliar with the comics.

Maybe Eternals will be a dud. But I doubt it. It looks like exactly what the comic was. Something off the beaten path. Marvel needs those kind of movies too.

To each his own. I'm excited!

KDoggg2017

Doesn’t look quite intriguing from the trailer. I hope the movie has quite a surprise rolled up its sleeve since there is an Oscar winning director on board.

Some trailers show all the impressive scenes before you even make it to the theater.
I think this was the reverse strategy of saving the good stuff for later.

Their relative anonymity is a wildcard that could go a couple of ways: like GotG, a less well-known property, they could explode into the scene with fresh takes on heroes pulled from a blank slate; or they might be the same type of project as the comics—redundant, derivative, boring. Or worse: preachy.

My suspicion is that the reason for an Eternals movie is that they sit at the crossroads of several different directions Marvel wants to go next. Their connection to Celestial manipulation gets you to cosmic entities like Galactus, which gets you indirectly to the Silver Surfer and the Fantastic Four. And via Celestial manipulation they also get you to mutants, which gets you to the X-Men.

I think the Eternals' anonymity is a deliberate decision here. It allows them to lay the groundwork for downstream movies in a movie where expectations are intrinsically low. If the movie underperforms, well, it was a bunch of unknowns anyway and the downstream movies will cause people to quickly forget it. If it overperforms, then they look like geniuses and they can always build on it as they did with Guardians.

So will The Eternals be the link to mutants in the MCU?

Doctorwho13

Always liked the eternals as a B or C group in the marvel universe. Neil Gaiman did a great mini series a while back as well. I’m interested in seeing it. As for MCOC they’ll squeeze them in as they are wont to do.

I think you are correct here. It’s a low risk gamble—flop, and it’s a not a huge deal. Succeed and you prove again that Marvel has a golden touch with lesser properties that DC lacks with its biggest enterprises.

I’m hoping the teaser is deliberately vague in an effort to reveal as little as possible. It would be refreshing to see a Marvel movie de novo without the inevitable hype and previews.

But...it’s a bit jarring seeing Angelina Jolie in a Marvel movie, and that gets me concerned as well. Where Marvel has succeeded is (mostly) with new talent, emerging talent, washed-up talent, unknowns. Here and there an established name. This movie feels different and I hope its star power doesn’t drag it down.

If I recall correctly, didn’t Eternals begin filming before Shang-Chi? I hope that means we will get more stunning CGI than the trailer sneak peek—should be lots for a “cosmic” film.

We will see...

Yeah they did. Probably will be a decent amount of cgi, but Chloe Zhao does favor a ton of on location shooting and natural lighting
