kav Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/eternals-worst-marvel-movie.html Eternals is generating some of the worst reviews ever for a Marvel movie. According to Rotten Tomatoes, a review-aggregation website for film and television, Eternals has the lowest average of recommendations for any Marvel Cinematic Universe film – only 57%, based on 148 reviews. Considering that the film hovered at 75% at one point, before taking a sharp drop down to 60%, it would seem that the number of fans and critics dissatisfied with the film continues to grow.

I can see people not reading the book finding it boring. There wasnt really much drama to be honest. If youre looking for CGI battles and giant beings erupting from earth's surface, eternals might be better than Dune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big sci fi reader growing up.. Asimov, Bradbury, Herbert, Heinlein etc..... I felt Dune would have been much better served with a series sort of like G.O.T. where they could have fleshed out the characters, their backgrounds and created more drama if not an intelligent ---script. The movie was just this big beautiful pastry from the outside, which one you digested it - it was tasteless and formless. I am amazed at how many people sing this movie's praises. Perhaps the bar has sunk so low or maybe my bar is just too high... regardless - Dune the movie remains forgettable.

Larryw7 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I love how Silvermane lumps all of the DC movies together as "failures". Aquaman made a billion dollars. Shazam! is a very well loved film. Family members who don't like comic book movies loved Shazam. Despite the controversy that erupted around Batman vs Superman, it made 800 hundred million. Take your head out of the water and see that the world is not centered on the Marvel Cinematic Universe. There's more out there in the line of entertainment than a bunch of formula films from " the House of Ideas". theCapraAegagrus, Finhead and Bosco685 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kav Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 If someone really loves the MCU then they should be critical when they produce a stinker.
