Eternals, or For Your Consideration

from Marvelous! Or, the Death of Cinema · host Nicole Veneto

In which Marvel Studios proves they can one-up DC in the ponderous epics department by releasing a two hour and twenty minute movie that feels longer than the seven thousand year timespan of its vacuous, shambling plot. They thought they where going to win an Oscar for this? The gangs all here to discuss all your favorite memorable characters like... uh, 'kingo', and... droog? Also: Male body dysmorphia, the empty themes, dry and murk cinematography, a sleepy and wasted cast, awful pacing, woke racism, the abuse of Jack Kirby's legacy and ask the question: All these movies suck, so why was this the one that critics and audiences turned on?Thank you to our $10 Executive Producers: Isaac, Porridge Fist, Walt Lewellyn of The Black Casebook, Tropical Doves, Jim (shout out to Jim!), Tiaer, jprestonpoole, Sam, Lohik, bernventers, and Owen2.Fundraisers related to Los Angeles 2025 firesIf you can, please consider supporting these organizations in support of Palestinians or find an abortion fund in the US to donate to:ANERA (American Near-East Refugee Aid) PCRF (Palestinian Relief Children's Fund)MAP (Medical Aid for Palestinians)National Networks of Abortion FundsThank you for listening!
