Marvel characters such as Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor have been known to the masses for years. I’ve also loved that Marvel Studios often takes a chance on the “lesser-known” comics property (for lack of a better term!). Marvel certainly hit it out of the park with GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY success! Fans, of course, can hope that the Eternals will see a similar success with their film (films?).
My Marvel-action loving 10 year old very much enjoyed THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER series, eagerly anticipates the return of Loki, and the introduction of Shang-Chi. However, he gives Eternals a pondering “hmmmm” in reaction. I told him, like I tell any Marvel fan, give it a chance. Yes, given the glimpse of this teaser, it may feel different in tone than other super-hero movies. Maybe more of a fantasy vibe? None the less, I’m excited and can’t wait to see more Celestials grace the big screen!
