The Eternals was the only marvel movie I straight up stopped watching, about 40 or so min in. I haven't seen the Marvels but not sure how it could be worse

Eternal was a bit of a slog but I ended up happy I watched it, connected to the characters, and willing to see a sequel.

Marvels was entertaining at times but an unmemorable movie that I was mainly happy to not pay theater prices for

A lot of it was the characters.

  • Kamala was a fantastic character in Ms Marvel and the highlight of this movie as far as it goes but somewhat a dead end for her. Bummer.
  • Monica still isn’t developed as a character. I want to like her but she’s still a nothing that barely makes sidekick material
  • I’ve never liked the Carol character in Marvel. I don’t know if it’s poor writing or disconnected acting but definitely the weak part

It doesn't help that Carol is pure Mary Sue and therefore boring. Kamala is why I expect Marvel's to be better than Eternals
