Actually the organic webshooters came during Avengers Disassembled (in a story that had NOTHING to do with that shit sandwich story but was slapped with the logo for a cheap sales boost). Also, it was Paul Jenkins who wrote the story in question, not JMS, though the story had links to the infamous "magic spider bite" plotline JMS kept shilling in the main book, much to the horror of fans.

And reaction to the move to organic webbing was met with blah than actual hate, due to the way that Marvel underplayed the change with how they did it. IE tossing it into Paul Jenkin's book which by that point was a zombie cash grab book where nothing important happened and where Jenkins was forced to do any and all movie tie-in stories that Marvel was mandating so that JMS could do whatever he want with zero movie synergy stuff interrupting his work, especially since outside a Doc Octopus and Green Goblin via flashback story, JMS was largely disdainful of Peter's rogue gallery and barely touched them/used them in favor of his totem OCs, Loki, Doctor Doom, Dr Strange villains, and more OCs galore.

You are right, man I was way off, I could have sworm Peter got the organic stuff from the Spider-totem storyline, with all the "become the spider, the hunter" bullshit, but it was way later, and it was on 2004's Spetacular SM, which I went to take a look, and now I remember why I never read it, Humberto Ramos art... no thanks.

And soon I would drop Amazing Spideman as well... Sins Past... And after that One more Day. Goddamn, looking back now, fucking Quesada hated Spiderman huh? Jesus the 2000's were rough for Peter.

Anyway, thanks man for the correction.

I know these are dumb sci-fi films that are just excuses for bad costumes and flashy CG effects but man am I sick of the trope that ancient man were too stupid to wipe their own ass without some aliens beaming down from outer space in order to teach them how. For fuck's sake agriculture has been advancing for the entirety of human history and every culture has come up with all sorts of ways to develop new tools, crops, and techniques in order to better cultivate plants and animals. Just kinda salts my rice when people shit on the ingenuity past man as they use all the science and technology you take advantage of today.
I can only assume that people like Bob like this trope because they view science like a tech tree in a video game. As long as you pump in enough science juice and money then you get betterer science! Those aliens are better than us because they unlocked way more of the science tech tree!

Oh man, those humans haven't even developed the technology to float a foot off the ground with shiny CGI effects! How embarrassing!

Fedoratippers like Bob like the "Ancient Aliens/Chariots of the Gods" origin for humanity because it discounts the Book of Genesis. It's also a favorite trope of science fiction writers because it explains why all of the rubber foreheaded aliens on Planet Grok look vaguely human and can have hybrid babies - turns out ALL sentient species in the universe have the same progenitor. (Just ignore the fact that all species on Earth technically come from the same progenitor DNA and humans still can only mate with other humans -or other branches of the human family like Neanderthals.)

I'd say the only franchise to do anything interesting with the "Ancient Aliens" idea was Evangelion, and only because it had the Precursor Race seeding the universe with two kinds of life - Eldritch beings and normal humans, with both crashlanding on the same planet: Earth. (Well, one landed here normally and the other crashlanded, to be specific.)

Does anyone really care about the eternals?

Venom 2 is the only marvel movie I'm actually excited to see.

No, even in the comics talks, The Eternals are taken more as a footnote in Marvel's history as it was Jack kirby's last work for them than the actual story and characters, which weren't really all that good nor memorable, as Kirby was mainly re-using ideas he worked on before. However the comics don't matter in the least anymore.

Regardless, the same could be said about the Guardian of the galaxy, no one cared, but with a clever script and enough exposure, I don't see why Eternals can't be a hit as well. I know a lot of people want to see Disny/marvel fail, but they do employ the best talent around, and while I have zero desire to watch any of these movies anymore, it would be foolish to deny the mass apeal they still hold on audiences.

So who knows at this point, if I had to bet I would say these movies are too big to fail right now, the movie will be a hit by pure momentum, now if Eternal will add to said momentum, then i would say no, and if these next movies also fail to raise the bar in terms of captivating a larger and new audience, then Disney might have some trouble ahead.

Saw the trailer and it seems to be a bastardization of what the Eternals are. Life still evolved normally but pre-humans were genetically modified by the Celestials around the time of Homo Erectus which left the seed for different kinds of super people. Eternals just happened to be one group of god-men who kept to themselves until having a civil war with a group of them fucking off to Titan, Saturn's moon, and the rest being confused for Greek gods whenever they did something (Greek Gods were real too though). Biggest thing they do is fight off the Deviants who are the unstable creations and the source of some monster stories from when they dominated mankind.

The MCU's versions are coming off as more smug puppet masters who are behind every development on Earth which is both off and only going to distance the audience from these characters even more. I'm not looking forward to seeing how this whole thing goes over. Though like others have said, a lot of the creators of Kirby after he returned to Marvel aren't very good but still shouldn't be morphed into this.

If you're going to ask why the Celestials did the experiments that created these groups like the Eternals, read the 2016 Ultimates because it's actually a good book. Basically the Celestials are the creation of a lonely god who they betrayed and took away his power. The entire multiverse is actually a science experiment to see what conditions will cause life to transcend to the level they are and if it doesn't happen, they just wipe the slate clean and start over with a new tweak. We're on the 8th, formerly 7th, cycle of creation which is allegedly the one that will succeed. This is also probably why the multiverse is home to countless variants of the same people.

Different cycles had different themes than the current "super genetics" one like the previous focusing even harder on the sci-fi (the mortal who became Galactus is from here) and the one before that was full of eldritch magic.

Bobby hates James Bond being associated with Amazon's rumored accquisition of MGM; he dreads that very soon people won't need to go to cinemas to watch the latest Bond films:

Oh Bobby, you'd always be the cutest ugly thing I've ever seen.
 
The first image that comes to mind when I hear Chris say' "headspace" is an empty room because it's obvious that he doesn't have a lot going on upstairs.

As for Bob salivating over Eternals, he truly is getting excited over nothing isn't he? As much as I loathe to admit it, Nash is 100% right in saying that Marvel is not selling the film at all. Bob is too much of a knuckle-dragging consoomer to realize that it was tedious and mundane.
 
Eternals: "We didn't interfere until now"
Thanos: *Literally wiped entire planets clean, eliminated a ship load of refugees from Asgard, eliminated half of life in the universe and probably ending thousands of endangered species and was only reversed by time BS*
Eternals: *latte sipping intensifies*

Bob is literally the most "consoom' person I have ever seen. Sure, Marvel has some pretty decent stuff, but he's just so OBSESSED that he can't point out the obvious problems. Hell, CHRIS CHAN thought Sonic Boom, a series that he worshiped his entire life was awful even though it was a stupid reason.

Which strikes me as weird given it doesn't disprove the fine-tuned universe argument or the causality argument - both of which are often used to prove God's existence.

You know as well as I do that if Trump acted like this the press coverage would be far less positive.

Biden's an old man who needs a nice, relaxing cottage where he can live out the rest of his life in peace. He does not need to be dragged around the world being used as a pawn in the power struggle between Harris and the progressives, and both sides who are doing that are honestly sick.

> their God is a lie

Once again, Bob, if you can do what Dawkins, Hitchens and every other euphoric has failed to do and come up with a cast-iron proof that God doesn't exist I'd love to see it. Until then, stop spouting off about things you know nothing about.

White American Christians have absolutely been persecuted in the past - Dissenters (non-Anglican Protestants - think Methodists and Baptists) were persecuted and banned from holding office under the colonial era, and anti-Catholicism was pretty much institutional for a long time in the US. Just to give you some examples, Al Smith lost the 1928 Presidential election because he was Catholic, and an anti-Catholic pogrom took place in Boston less than two hundred years ago.
 
It takes a real shill not to acknowledge that Marvel’s wandered into "who gives a fuck" territory. It doesn't make you racist to say the movie looks pandering, either. Tokenism hasn't changed because it's 2021.

A Chinese director is not a selling point. Treating women and minorites like they have mystical artistic secrets is dumb. It leaves us elevating substandard work.

Bob treats minorities and women like a retarded cousin. "Wow, you made a movie? All by yourself? That's really difficult for somebody like you! Great job, sport! Here's five whole stars, just for you!"

Black Panther is currently rated 96% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Why should it matter if we have, granting what Bobby says, sold something non-existent (our souls) to something non-existent (our God)? We got nothing out of nothing; the joke is on us. So?
