BrianWilly posted:I did think it was somewhat surprising that Kingo, a guy who seems very invested and involved with humanity and in fact has a human friend right there with him, was the one who opted out of saving humanity instead of, like, Thena or Gilgamesh or whoever else had been living out in the desert for years. Like, what did he say to his valet the exact second he walked out on the others? "Super sorry to you and all that you love, but you have to die according to my religion"? Sort of. He loved his family and he loved humanity but he didn't want to fight his family. It might sound a little cowardly but it's reasonable.

Yea, Kingos reasoning made sense and he clearly states it clearly in the movie. I've seen to many people complaining that he just vanishes which suggests they either didn't watch the movie and are just copying what they saw on cinema sins or they just weren't paying attention.

He's also pretty clear on where he stands and why. I mean sure he cares about his valet and humanity, but as far as he's concerned God himself said they need to go and Cersei's team is fighting against that. If you knew for a fact God existed and had been guiding you for thousands of years you might have trouble deciding to go against him

Jack Kirby was better at names than basically anyone other than Stan. That being said, I am curious as to what his aim was with "Similar to existing mythology, but a lil different" stylization for the Eternals, considering the a lot of the mythological figures already existed in the 616 Incidentally I knew it was "Dark-side" from Super Friends reruns

Darkseid has it bad, but it could be worse. Look at poor Ra's Al Ghul where they screwed up how to pronounce his name in the movies.

It's a phrase in a real language. People stubbornly insisting on the wrong one is kind of lovely. Raysh is wrong. Roz is also wrong, but closer than Raysh.

The Hulk that shows up is a Hulk robot that some college students built that the Uni-Mind makes real via cosmic radiation.  (I mean yeah, Marvel Comics is a company inside 616 but it's clear from the language that all the Marvel characters are fiction here) Ultimately it was very much like the New Gods where Kirby really didn't want to do superheroes but the company was very much in the superhero business. Then after the series got canned with some dangling plot threads, years later Roy Thomas came in and wrapped them up during his Thor run which means... well there's Thor now so welcome to the Marvel Universe, Eternals, hope you survive the experience.
