WATCHING THE ETERNALS FOR THE FIRST TIME REACTION/ COMMENTARY | MCU 

I love how the names were related to legends: Gilgamesh was a Sumerian warrior king, Thena is Greek war goddess Athena, Phastos is Hephaestus the inventor, Ikaris is Icarus who flew too close to the sun, Druig is like a druid wizard, Makkari is like Mercury the messenger god, Sersi is like Circe the Greek goddess who transformed things, Ajak is Ajax the Greek warrior, Kingu is a minor God without much power, and Sprite is a refreshing beverage (also a pixie with powers)

Monica immediately recognising Harry Styles was great 😂

What I always wonder about this movie: Was is strange for Robb Stark and Jon Snow to both play characters who are in love with a woman whose name is quite similar to that of a certain other woman?

52:10 - YES! Newton in da house!🤣 56:04 - no, don't apologize: we demand more Newton! 58:15 - that was the voice of Mahershala Ali, or should we say: Blade

Sayyyyy whaatttt Is this Marvel Coming out with all Types of diversity yes please we love to see it!!! Man I Love that Marvel is pushing the change, this movie was a blast although it adds a million and one questions and dare I say it ? "Was Thanos Right?" ahhh man who knows either way guys I hope you enjoy the reaction, As always come check out the Patreon to see where we currently are on our MCU journey (link is in the bio) until the next reaction though take care!!! P.s there’s a little surprise at the end of the video 😉

I liked this movie cause it was a fresh air from the normal heroes

A lot of people hated this movie. I personally thought it wasn't THAT bad and after rewatching it, I liked it more.

Makkari and Druig are already up there in the ranking of the best couples in the MCU, just love them

Nowhere near the MCU’s best but I think it’s a lot better than it gets credit for. Several of the performances were pretty good (Kumail Nanjiani, Brian Tyree Henry, Don Lee, etc.), I really liked its take on Makkari‘s super speed, and the cinematography was gorgeous (the shot of the Celestial looking over London might be one of my favorite shots in a Marvel film to date). I’m curious to see how we’ll see the Eternals and both Dane and Blade moving forward

We need more Newton reviews of the MCU :)

IDC what no one say this movie was good asf in my opinion and the voice in the end credits was Mahershala Ali who is going to play Blade in the MCU, you also should watch the Blade trilogy

Do not apologize for Newton! Soooo adorable. You guys will be such good dog parents. 👏 this is Netwon Reacts now

I really loved this movie and the cast was amazing.

Honestly, it's in my top 5 marvel films. It's so unique and visually amazing

Makari speed looked amazing and it was dope to see eternals and celestials being introduced into the mcu

I don't mind Newton interruptions while reacting! Y'all are just fine!

1:01:30 pretty sure tons of people told you in the comments by now but Dane Witman, the boyfriend of Cersei and the guy in the 2nd aftercredit, is another superhero. He's a British one linked to the legends of Arthur I think (most probably they always link to all mythos) ? And he's actually pretty intriguing as a superhero concept, even though I haven't seen much of him in the comics. The sword he was so nervous to take is a magic sword that thirst for blood. The sword can do all sorts of neat magic stuff like mjolnir, but it also 'demands blood'. The sword can be used for good, but you can see how easily someone's mind can be controlled by the magic sword to become a villain. The sword gas been passed down through generations in his family, and there's almost as much chance for the person wielding it to become a villain or a hero. Thus why he was so nervous/afraid of it. Also why the voice said 'are you sure you're ready for it Mr Witman?' There's a line early in the movie where Dane said he wasn't in speaking terms with his uncle, that's because the previous wielder of the sword was his uncle who was a villain. Talking about the voice, it was the voice of Mahershala Ali, who was already cast as Blade. So it was Blade saying that line. Blade is a vampire vampire hunter. The MCU is just going all in with the rest of its lore they were yet to introduce (looking at Werewolf by night too >>.>>) These aftercredits were really neat and hinting to so much more coming into the MCU, although by the time they finally get their movies...people will have forgotten about these aftercredits x"D BTW your puppy is so cute! Aww ❤️

What a sweet puppy. He is absolutely adorable. No need to apologize.

Yall finally got a dog! Monica looks so so happy!

If I was writing this movie I’d send at least Cersi and Kingo off to meet Ant Man and ask if they could use his Pym particles to shrink Tiumute down small enough he could come out a volcano without destroying the planet. Also I’d have the fact he grew and absorbed so much mental energy from humans on earth that he comes to care about them so in fact he agreed with Cersi in order to save the planet. Then when he’s out in space far enough away from earth they help Tiamute grow back to normal planet size self which in the future he could return and help fight for the people of earth

the character icarus actually did lead the avengers in the comic books

I enjoyed this movie. It was a lot to take in as there were so many characters but overal I enjoyed it. I look forward to diving more into the characters. I did want a lil more from Angelina's character though.

it has been confirmed that the voice at the end of the 2nd credit scene is actually Mahershala Ali playing Blade! the blade at the end is the ebony blade forged by Merlin itself! yes Merlin, king arthur and the round table is part of the MCU now!

Newton is ADORABLE

Probably the most underrated MCU movie, Top 5 for me

the puppy was the highlight

Hi Rico Monica congratulations on getting a new puppy it's so cute🐕 and I absolutely loved your reaction to the eternals I enjoy your reaction I know a lot of fans don't like this movie but I don't cuz it's Marvel we should be all grateful that we got more movies I understand that we're going to have different characters of Marvel at least the story of infinity war and endgame still spreading with new Marvel movies and shows and Monica yes to answer your question that is Harry Styles he is in Marvel and we all can't wait to see the eternals 2 to someday soon

And that was Blade voice at the end of the second post credit scene

This is the first MCU movie where I didn't care for any of the deaths that happened. I don't even know why.

This isn’t the first appearance of celestials in the MCU. Knowhere- the home of the Collector from Guardians 1 and again in infinity war is the hollowed out skull of a dead celestial and Quill (Star-Lord)’s father Ego was also a celestial in Guardians 2

I loved this mivie seen it a few times now don't know why everyone hates it. The two post credit scenes are explianed like this Starfox is indeed Thanos's brother and he is an Eternal himself but Thanos was infused with diviant d.n.a as well hence he looked the way he does. The second ending was Dane with the Ebany sword not sure I spelled that correctly but any way it's basically a sword that gives it's user the power to become the black knight but everytime the person kills with it they loose apart of themselves and become evil. That is what happened to his uncle and the reason why Dane doesn't want anything to do with him anymore. The voice in the background was Blade, the half human and half vampire who was originally played by Westly Snipes and is now being played by mahershala ali.

I loved this movie

That end voice was blade the vanprier slayer coming to the mcu

This movie was so enjoyable. Yea it had "um. . ." moments and the movie was a wasted opportunity and a disappointment from what I expected to get out the trailers. But all and all, moments like Makkari's fight scene, the eternals(Specifically Gilgamesh) consoling Thena after learning her memories have to be erased, Gilgamesh and Thena's relationship, Angelina's performance after loosing Gilgamesh and her performance of a character basically going through Alzheimer's disease, PTSD, anxiety, the cinematography and their unique powers( 5 thinkers & 5 fighters) makes up for the execution of the story, plot points and randomness( that deviant dude on the beach). I do say, all these characters shouldn't have been introduced so quickly and we shouldve met some in movie 2 and that would've given more time for development, interesting storylines andoments ,but i still enjoyed it. 7.5 for me

the giant head that was in the 1st guardians of the galaxy where the guardians went to the trade 1 of the stones for credits was an eternal

Omg Newton is so adorable 😍😍😍😍😍😍

The reason I like Rico’s reaction channel is because he doesn’t shorten it to 30 min like every other reaction RU-vidr (which is annoying)

Yep, humas and earth would have died, but that doesn't imply that the birth of a Celestial is inherently a bad thing, they are the ones who help in the creation of more suns, planets and galaxies, it just fells like a bad thing for us as humans because we come to be affected by the process, but a celestial is beyond any good or bad, which are merely human concepts.

Monica finally got her dog 🥹🥹 lol

Omg Newton is perfection 🥺😍😍😍

Newton is adorable, little teddy

This is very different from the rest of the MCU, they've always been different.When Stan Lee was creating the early Marvel Universe, he had Jack Kirby as his co creator. Stan & Jack created everything except for Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, and Captain America. In fact, Jack created Captain America back in the 1940's without Stan, Stan & Jack recreated Captain America and brought him into the modern world. Anyway, the Eternals are dfferent because they were created by Jack Kirby by himself. Stan had nothing to do with them, which is why they seem like such an odd fit. Jack never inteneded them to be part of the regular Marvel Universe, they were meant to be part of thier own universe. But at some point in the Eighties some editor had them brought into the Marvel Universe, and today we have a pretty good movie about them.

The voice at the end was blade

This is my favorite movie of phase 4 after no way home.

You guys are Officially parents now ❤🥰

I loved Eternals! I know some people think that the MCU is all over the place right now. Black Panther 2 is the end to phase 4 . In phase 5 I think we are going to start to see how all of this fits together.

Newton is awesome. Congratulations. I loved Eternals. Very intriguing premise and beautiful to watch, but I think it would have been better as a series. Great reaction as ever. Thanks for sharing.

Can't believe you're almost at Moon Knight after this! Only one show and two movies left ! I'm still into that Moon Knight phase since it came out lmao.

NEWTON IS SO FRIGGIN CUTE OMGGGGG🥺🥹🤍😍

thena in the comics is cousins with thanos and eros also yeah thanos is an eternal at least in the comics

Can’t wait until you guys get to Thor 4 and also Dr Stange 2.

I can’t wait, next is no way home! Guys if you haven’t already, react to the Batman as well!

Newton is adorable

When thanos erased half of the life in universe he basically slowed the celestial's growth

OMG, how long ago did you guys filmed this? Newt is so tiny here 🥰🥰

Our lord and savior Newton!

Yes Thanos is an eternal with deviant genes that's why he looks different

The only thing I didn’t get from this movie was why not instead of making her human why didn’t she just make her look like an adult? That way she keeps her powers and gets what she actually wants

Welcome Newtonn ❤️❤️

one of my favorites

YALL HAVE TO WATCH BLADE

Newton!!!!!!

This will be interesting. *rubs hands*

Please reaction on Indian movie RRR Must watch 2022

Newton is so cute!

Please Guys react to a Bollywood movie once 🤩 For example "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" It's really good And the most known/famous movie "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham"

Still waiting for Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Spiderman reactions...damn taking so long😪. Also watch the 2 Venom movies as it is connected to No Way Home and MCU.

I can't wait to see you to react to Hawkeye, Moon Knight and Ms Marvel and She-Hulk and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Spider-Man no way home before watching no way home I hope you both watch them all as soon as possible cuz I'm ready to see your reaction to the next Marvel movie or show

I like this movie. Hell the peoples who dislike this.

Dope commentary.

Nice video

Guys add this to playlist, or u r losing views

NEWTON!!!

Why haven’t y’all reacted to Deadpool??

newton🥺🥺

Fig Newton!

This is one of those movies that really benefits from having some time away and having a rewatch. I liked it much better then!

Makkari is already one of my favourite characters ever - and I like Druig because she likes him and vice versa 😂

When they went to Ajak’s house and saw her corpse and Monica said “aren’t they supposed to be eternal”😹😹

I love the Ebony Blade scene with Blade asking Black Knight if he's ready for it

Really loveeee this movie, glad y'all enjoyed it as well❤️

Loved this film, and Phase 4. Each movie and series just feels so different from the other MCU projects, especially Eternals. The cinematography is just amazing

I love this movie so much

In the comics, Thanos is an Eternal, with the Devaint gene, I believe

Guys, don’t worry about apologising for the puppy making cute noises or being slightly distracted while you care for a baby animal - we get it, we respect it, and honestly anyone who doesn’t can grow up 🤷‍♀️

The movie that proved Thanos was right and a hero. The snap prevented the birth of the celestial. So by killing half of all life actually saved every world from being destroyed by a celestial birth. 😂😂

The actress who played sersi was also In captain marvel.

A lot of people disliked this movie for maybe lack of action or not properly introducing a whole new team but I loved it. I think they did a bang on job for an introduction movie of 10 new characters. The aesthetics and the fight choreography was brilliant in this. This is one of my favourite introduction movies from Marvel.

Post credit scene: Dane Whitman is the super hero known as the Black Knight (due to that sword). The voice that spoke to him was Blade. The MCU has a dark side to the world - werewolves, vampires, demons, Ghost Rider, etc, that hasn't been seen except in the Dr Strange movies. In the comics, Dr Strange forms a group of heroes from the darker side of Marvel to fight those baddies (similar to the Avengers fighting aliens and super villains). I suspect Blade and Black Knight will be members of the MCU version of The Midnight Suns.

ALL HAIL NEWTON 🙌🏻

I kind of understand why people hate the movie, but frankly, I loved it. Sure it was a bit long and overstuffed, but it did what it wanted to do and was very different from the usual. Sometimes that's refreshing. Plus the cast was delightful, great chemistry all around. I very much look forward to seeing them again. Especially Dane. Man's basically saw god abduct his girlfriend and said, "Imma grab my family's VERY EVIL sword and go stab that big red bitch". That's love, right there.

I love your little cute dog I think Monica is a great mom 😂

I like this movie because it was fun and cool. But mostly because it didn't try too hard. After Endgame and Infinity war people want 100% all the time. This proves that it doesn't have to aim for the top and still be a blast. A lot of marvel stuff now goes for the top everytime and it's to difficult to maintain. Rather have 10 movies at this similiar level of ambition and enjoyment than 2 diamonds and 8 copper.

Have you watched the other Spider-Man movies, including Vemom 1 and 2? Coz they're gonna connect to Spider-Man: No Way Home

my top 1 phase 4 project....love the movie cutie puppy

I don't see why people have a hard time with the MCU... I've been reading the Comic's/70s "Eternals" 'GOTG" "Man~Thing""Luke Cage"."Shang Chi" Jack Kirby's"DC" the New... God's.. And before that 60s Spiderman, HULK/Dr Strange,Nick Fury "Agent of Shield" "FF"... I was given my 1st long box at 8. Maybe because I grew up with the Comic's...It's a language I speak..

Just binged your whole MCU journey. You gained a subscriber :) I like the pair of you as reactors.

All am sayin is u gotta react to Moon Knight

This movie doesn't deserve the dislike it gets, there were weaknesses of course (that can always be learned from), but I think a big part of said dislike is that it's so different from rest of the movies. Personally I didn't like that the Eternals are appearently the only reason humanity progressed in the past and I wasn't a fan of them using ASL 7000 years ago. I think it would've been better if they made up their own sign language for the scenes in the past and switched to ASL when they were in the modern day. But aside from that I really enjoyed it quite a lot honestly and I can't wait to see more of Kit Harrington as the role his character's gonna take on in the future and am curious to see how their story continues.

While I liked the movie I thought they put too much into it. The Celestials and the Eternals and the Deviants. 10 new characters with different powers... I guess it would have been better to turn it into a Disney+ Show where to could have given each character more room to shine. The movie feels a little rushed. But oh well...
