to be fair, you did mention how Will Smith doesn't take villain roles

LMS just extrapolated your comment to make a general statement about black actors, which is weird, but I think I understand the logic

I saw Eternals this week. I liked it quite a bit, and am a little surprised at how mixed the reaction was from both critics and audiences. Sure, it could have cut a good 20 minutes and would have been better for it (contrasting with both No Time to Die and Dune recently which were about as long but in my opinion earned it) and there was stuff like that one Deviant which felt underdeveloped, but I have a hard time seeing what is so much worse than any other MCU movie. And quite to the contrary, I think it had some really good, different ideas. I would admittedly rank it at the bottom of a Phase 4 films list, but its about on the same level as Black Widow - mid-tier Marvel perhaps, but still good.

I think I just found the two lead actors' performances so dull I was glad when Kingsley brought some life into the movie.

Speaking of performances, regarding the pre-credits scene I've heard that people were more receptive to Brie Larson's performance as Captain Marvel here, and while I get it that wasn't really my reaction at first, albeit like I've said I always felt like the woodenness of her acting is vastly overplayed at best.

I get it XIII.

EDIT: I was at least still discussing something that was in Shang-Chi. I get it people are tired of me bringing it up but I felt someone would be wondering what I thought. Also viewing the scene again I understand better, but my opinion has not changed. And that's fine. And with some of the other actresses, I was trying to be respectful and said the wrong things to that end. I understand I shouldn't use these threads just to get my thoughts on the MCU in. Fair enough. No need to rub it in.

I mean, I keep complaining about what others think! And with Captain Marvel, while I'm sure the board will see this coming a mile away I was genuinely excited about the movie for its premise and cast (Samuel L. Jackson is one of my top 5 favorite actors, and I've been a fan of Jude Law ever since watching A.I.), so I would have been disappointed in it had I not heard so much smack talk about it ahead of time. Maybe watching Chris Stuckmann's average review of the film before watching it didn't help (he gave it a C). And yeah I am more than a little obsessed with how some people act like Brie Larson hijacked the movie for the sake of her feminist agenda when there's no goddamn evidence for it whatsoever, especially considering the film has probably the most non-threatening and mass-market friendly feminist message possible and yet still gets criticism over it. Then again I shouldn't be surprised at anti-progressives complaining about anything progressive, but it still boggles my mind.

I'm also just all-around enamored with the casting of the MCU and feel like there hasn't been a major misstep so far on that front. I especially enjoy seeing an actor I like from elsewhere appear in the MCU, like William Hurt's cameo in Infinity War bringing back fond memories of A.I. and A History of Violence. And yes I was kind of disappointed when Hurt's much-advertised role in Black Widow amounted to near-nothing.

warming up to Hawkeye though, and Kate's still great. I like the build-up on Jack / stepdad / Tony Dalton going on particularly in that 2nd ep with the fencing scene

I actually thought the musical was pretty weak. Maybe because it was just a side piece that they didn't put too much effort into? It didn't look or feel like something that would be dominating ON Broadway so much as a local theater company taking their stab at it. It would be hella fun if they did a full length version of it that they really put the effort behind.

It was lame as shit but MCU fans have to pretend they like everything.
I watched it after watching Red Notice, and maybe it was just grading on a curve, but it had ten times the effort and creativity put into it.

That might just be an indictment of Netflix movies in general.
