Whoever thought this video was a good idea clearly had no clue on the differences of this film. Eternals is a film but no where near the height of an avengers film and justice league is suppose to be dcs version of avengers so why don’t u compare avengers and justice league then u can debate it!

I loved the Eternals, and I had no problem connecting to them. And they did have complex relationships. Like you have them in a family - some are closer, some are not and some don't like each other. And most of them had not seen each other for 1000 or 2000 years. And I would compare ZS Justice League rather to Endgame. It did not include origin stories like the Eternals. Eternals had to tell the origin story and have a story line in the present and set up later movies. That was so much different than what ZSJL was, which could jump right into action with heroes everyone knew and some of them had a history known from other movies. You can't compare them.

It was something unique and never before tried and I love it for that.

And honestly, this could have been a 2 parter, to just really flesh out and so I can see some of my favourite characters get more screen time. But even without it, it was great. And I understand why they didn't go for a 2 parter, it would have been too much of a risk from a lot of point of views.

While I agree that Eternals would have benefited from being a TV show, but I dont think enough people realise how unrealistic that happening actually was. Having the same Actors, locations, VFX's using a TV budget would have either resulted in something like the Inhumans's, or would have made this easily one of the most expensive Marvel show to make.

You're holding it against the Eternals that you pretty much felt that none of them would die in the final battle (when--in fact--some of them DID die in the film), but not holding that against the Justice League? You thought one of the Justice League members was going to die??? In that direction of the argument, absolutely no comparatively higher stakes in Snyder's Justice League existed. For my own part, I definitely thought Druig might have kicked the bucket, and you misrepresented Ikaris' role in the death of Ajak.

To be fair, I think most people liked Makkari/ Druig & Gilgamesh/Thena despite their little screen time. Most would agree a longer screen time to get to know the characters and their motivations would work much better. Like on Disney+ One gripe against this I heard though is that the graphics/visuals would have suffered (but Wandavision was good though? So save the huge CGI fight to like episode 6 or 7). The main couple got the most screen time but personally didn't "feel" their love or chemistry, and I walked away thinking Ikaris was an uncaring, unfeeling, duty-first android with no-human traits despite living among them for centuries. I agree with Kingo. He should have cared the most. And we didn't even get a name for the villain. Only comic book aficionados would recognize him while most audiences would understand him as a Deviant who obtained consciousness... but is he an anti-hero or a villain? It isn't clear. Sprite should have been at least indifferent but siding with Ikaris because of crush that is told the audience mid-movie is a little out of left field. The Black knight/Blade references would have gone over most non-comic readers heads especially since it was tacked on at the end. I think emotionally, I probably connected more with Druig, Phastos, Thena & Gilgamesh, Makkari (because she's a sweetheart), then Ajak (probably because I saw her as the mother figure). The long and short of it is, the characters and the plot needed more "breathing room." Instead of a rich, smorgasbord of ideas, motivations and plot elements, shrunken down to 2 hours reduced it into a bland, not messy but tangled narratives and dull characters, which would certainly be likeable had we seen more of them. And more "show don't tell" elements would help loads.

Eternals feels like a while separate story and world to the rest of the MCU. The Celestials have been used as an Easter Egg but don't seem important at all in the midst of the multiverse getting all wishy-washy. I expected to see our learn more about them in Those L&T but again they were just a background shout-out. Seems like their backstories were meant to take shape in the exchanges of dialogue between the characters but only hinted at references. The deviants still make no sense to me and why aren't Celestials trippin over the multiverse getting cracked a couple of times already?

They’re completely different types of movies. Why are they even being compared in this way?

I disagree with Ryan's take on having an emotional stake in the Eternals' final battle: Most of the Eternals - sans the most powerful of them, Ikarus - were trying to evolve from what they recently learned (5 centuries after breaking up) the Celestials originally programmed them to do. This conflict kept my interest knowing they've spent centuries concealing their powers - including not fighting against Thanos. Yep, Sersi may have looked purposeless at the start of the movie however she had to push her powers beyond her limits in order to stop the Celestial in the Earth from being born AND be the new Eternals leader. Despite this difference, I'm still a big fan of this channel.

Eh I like eternals.. felt like they could have gone deeper and further into history and the mythologies they supposedly created. Will admit that sprite was just a terribly written character arc

I still liked the Eternals sorry and Cersi had compassion and love

At the end of the day what Eternals really needed was a Zack Snyder-like stylistic flare. Because next to its underdeveloped characters, Eternals’ biggest flaw is that it never actually lives up to the scope and scale of its own ambitions. It’s not nearly as intimate or massive as it thinks it is.

Ryan, I’m disappointed by how off the mark you are about so many of the points you made about the Eternals. There are plenty of stakes and danger in the final battle, and people did believe that any of their lives were in danger because you have 10 new characters with no fan favorite/plot armor to keep them alive, and two of them have already been killed. Even at 3 on 1 odds they can barely slow down Icarus, plus Thena could turn on them all randomly. Then the Deviant shows up, and they now have to fight to keep it and Icarus apart, but still beat both of them in time to use the uni-mind. And they freaking lost. Icarus beats them, and his love for Cersi is the only thing that saves them. because the pain he's been enduring since he killed Ajax was already bad enough, plus the now exposed betrayal and hate his family now has for him. He couldn't have bared to hurt Cersi any further. The thing that just flat out angered me, was your claim about Sprite. She didn't turn on her family over some crush. Just like Claudia in Interview with a Vampire, Babydoll in Batman TAS and Monster girl in Invincible, her permanent childhood has been hell. Her introductory scene in the bar literally points that out. For over 7000 years she had been a child and will be limited for her eternity, and if her only release is being rebooted and you literally have a cosmic deity giving you an out and saying it's right, a very depressed person is probably going to take it. Her feelings for Icarus were just a factor that made it easier to do. And her family understands that too which is why they forgive her, especially after seeing Icurs leave in shame. Families fight but they also make up. Saying it's just some childish crush further enforces my belief that many detractors of this film either don't pay attention well enough, easily forget key information or are not able to understand deep characterization unless it's spoon-fed to them. Kingo didn't care about his film legacy, he literally said he only cared about “not fighting his family.” He believed in the utilitarianism of Arishem's plan. He said it wasn't their right to change it. Even his buddy Karuan understood this and didn't beg him to change his mind, and he is human. They are immortal gods, they don't have the same outlook as humans. Icarus purposely cut himself off from humanity when he found out the truth so it would be easier to do what was right. Cersei was more than “just someone who loved people”, she showed Humanity how to grow and thrive, she was basically the surrogate mother to humanity. She is the first of them to make contact with humans, and it's with a child. And in the present day, she is a teacher of children. All of her flashback scenes are about growing and creating life, and now she is fighting to save it. Phastos initially wasn't going to go because he didn't think they could do anything to stop it, and wanted to spend the time he had left with the people who gave him a life worth living and love after being alone for over 500 years. That reason has been validated in real life and stories since the beginning of time. And why would he think they had a chance of stopping it? He just found out that Ajak has been killed, and everything they were told was a lie, and the best plan they had was based on Druig, who he was not only constantly at odds with in the flash backs, but also the reason the family broke up in the first place after blaming Phastos' technology. I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! I even went and personally message all the people who helped you on the Mrs. Marvel videos and thanked them for their help and hard work. Screen Crush is my first go-to spot after I'm done with my favorite fandom media. I've seen you infer so many things from the smallest word usage or scene framing, or sound byte or song usage. So i know you don't need everything to be laid out like a road map. This movie gave viewers more than enough scenes and moments to establish these relationships. I have yet to meet anyone who said they weren't excited to see more of Makkari and Druig together and the fandom that has sprung up around their friendship. Or anyone who wasn't a huge fan of Gilgamesh and very much into his relationship with Thena. The character scenes gave us more than enough to fill in the blanks to their family dynamics….unless you are someone who has never had one, nor watched any media about families. If this wasn't an MCU movie, or even just came out before everyone wanted to see everything connected and spelled out immediately, it wouldn't fall prey to these kinds of criticism. No one was commenting on how quickly Neo was bonding with Morpheus even though they barely hung on in screen time shown, and event that time was just exposition dumps. Or Trinity falling for a guy she barely knows, and once again barely spent much screentime with, but no one has a problem thinking he’d sacrifice himself for Morpheus, or Trinity’s just meet your true love confession would work. We know that characters bond and interact off-screen. This film is in my top 10 favorite MCU movies for how different and refreshing it is. And while it may be the lowest rated, more than half the people who saw it liked it, and in many of them flat out LOVED IT! It’s weird how so many people on and offline i ask about the movie love it as much as i do and deeply connect to it, and just as baffled by people who say they didn’t feel anything for these characters. But I don't have an issue with that. I only take issue with arguments that the filmmakers didn’t do their job correctly to give the story and characters enough time to tell it right because so many people did feel like did about it. They could have done more, but they definitely did enough to make it engaging and fulfilling. Plus you finally get an amazing final battle with no CGI army, and with real stakes that feels like a battle between gods and you can clearly see what is happening and the strategic battle tactics of a team working like a batte-tested unit.

One of my biggest gripes with Eternals is that it should have been a Disney+ show. Why wonder woman is better than captain marvel? Black panther vs Lion king? Why Avengers infinity war worked and Last Jedi didn't?

In terms of run-time yes - with a longer runtime though comes a more thinly stretched budget. The powers of the Eternals require a lot of VFX - which means a Disney+ show budget simply wouldn't cut it.

So it boiled down to because 1 movie is 4 hours long and had time to flesh out characters, while the other did not? Would probably be more fair to compare Eternals to the theatrical release of the Justice League.

I wasn't aware the snider cut worked. Better than the original, but that's a low bar to clear.

Eternals worked great for me. People went to see Eternals not knowing what to get but they got a deconstruction of old DC tropes and an inconsequential re-imagining of DC heroes and didn't even notice the absolute genius of it. People went into Justice League with only a vague idea of DC heroes looking for a better understanding of the original tropes but they got an inconsequential re-imagining of DC heroes and didn't even realize the idiocy of it.

@@boreddude3898 Fr. The characters in Eternals were analogs of superhero genre concepts and philosophies and THAT is what the movie was about more than the literal characters themselves. It was an achievable goal, and they nailed it. Eternals was entirely free to BE a deconstruction and subversion of tropes, and that's WHY it TOTALLY worked. JL, however, should have been a celebration and justification of those same tropes, reinforcing their relevance for a modern audience. All Snyder and WB managed to do was give us an obnoxious bad faith take on a world they should have just presented in a way that was true to the source material and reflected the good intentions of the tropes within. But, DC insists on being "mature" and cynical about their own characters, constantly deconstructing them instead of actually trusting them to be what they are - VERY lame imo and neither JL worked for me AT ALL.

Even then though, Snyder falls short on THAT, and its incredible how even with a 4 hour runtime they were still only able to make something surface level and passable at best

Like, there is no way in hell Eternals and Doctor strange 2 are among the worst in the franchise. Its incredibly weird seeing people suddenly talk about how Thor 2 is better than film A or B when at the very least recent films have made SOME attempt to have their own unique identity, not just in genre but visual style

Eternals was a great film but small just to understand 10 charecters

Actually if you looked at them or bought them, the lego set for the spaceship gives the lead devient the name of Kro. The deluxe action figure which was possibly an exclusive to some store also was called Kro.

ZSJL slaps eternals into the sun the director of eternals literally said most of her inspiration was from the DC movies

They both worked in their own unique way for what stories they were both trying to tell they both have their own unique charm Can we stop comparing things and just let things coexist The closest thing they have in common is that Chloe zhao based ikarus’s characterization on cavil’s portrayal of Superman

I find it hard to believe anybody cared about the Eternals enough to consider it divisive. Comparing a standalone movie to a team up with multiple character building movies behind it is a dumb premise. And Joss’s flash got him a standalone movie. Attack the actor all you want, but before the fall he was building quite the following. A highlight of an otherwise long movie that felt long. Twice.

It's the "lived up to the hype" part that got me...

I had a really rough few months personally where I watched Eternals and Encanto-seemingly a very odd combo!- more or less on repeat. The truly odd thing was how much they had in common: both were about inherited trauma, and the troubles that come from trying to read REALITY in that circumstance. People do what they have to, and it hurts, but is necessary. I’m serious, the combo sold me. @ScreenCrush when the CC glut has passed do a trauma vid. ✌️

I thought eternals was good it was different but with all the familiarly of the mcu it was a nice different change, I enjoyed the final battle it was interesting and had good moments of hyped

It's wrong to compare these two movies. Justice League is not only double the length but is a TEAM movie. Eternals is an ensemble movie. This is the biggest thing that people get wrong when comparing Eternals to other suphero movies.

I don’t agree on this with you, you’re the same person who said eternals were a family conflict so there shouldn’t be a third act

I honestly think the main character of eternals is Earth itself. If you care about Earth, that's all it takes to enjoy the movie.

I've been saving this video for a year because I planned to watch Eternals first to avoid spoilers but man I just couldn't get into it. Now that I've finally watched this video I realize I didn't miss anything lol

Palpatine gets me more than “your mom” at this point

I agree with a lot of the points, but by the time the final battle in ZSJL came, I was just exhausted. Felt like more of the same. I didn't care that much.

I can see how this could have worked much better in long form, by say playing up not superman as some kind of paragon of loyalty and giving him enough saving the day moments throughout a season having him not so much turn on his team but be the only one to stay loyal as his team turns on him and their space god could give that actual emotional impact and if there are say galaxy wide steaks that make it important for the birth of this new eternal where there is a real argument to be made that sacrificing all of earths people would actually save more lives than it would doom.

I liked Eternals, it was beautiful with great actors, but I agree, jamming 5000 years into a 2.5hr movie didn't work. I'd have liked a long form series too.

As soon as I watched Enternals I said, it's not terrbile, just OK. Should have been a Disney+ show, each character getting their own episode and a final episode, possibly an extended one, to showcase the finale.

I like this take on Eternals. Never read their comics so didn't know anything about them going in, or at the end. Wasted time. Should have been at least introduced in a show for a season before they got a movie.

I think if they made a 6 episode anthology series on Disney+ where each episode told a short story about a different character, the movie would have been a lot better. The avengers had basically 5&1/2 movies to develop fewer characters than the eternals.

I think Eternals is a much better film than the Snydercult- I mean, the Snydercut.

I miss these types of videos

I love this channel, but this video had a whole different vibe, outside of you running your ad for the game twice, you had like 20 different quick cut/sound bite jokes which took away from the nerdy deep dive into the topic at hand. Not trying to be a hater. Huge fan of the channel, but this video is just way different than the others and not sure why. Figured if it was something you were experimenting with I'd offer my two cents of don't mess with success! I like the light jokes, and even a few cuts, but this was rapid fire one after the other. Almost like a spoof. What makes your videos so good is the deep dive into topics and taking them seriously. Unpacking them and looking from all different angles. Just my thoughts! Respectfully!
