      eternals was fine and you can very clearly see the tension between the movie zhao wanted to make and the movie marvel wanted to make

      I thought that made for an interesting tension in the movie. It really pushed the limits of what an MCU movie could be.

      the best parts of the movie were the wordless interiority and abstraction that were completely jarring next to CGI pre-vis fights and generic quippy dialogue

      Yeah, the interiority was striking -- but also fits well with the theological subtext & the technological sublime of the Celestials. Wasn't a completely successful movie but there's a lot going on in it which I've been thinking about since seeing.

      the strongest version of this movie would have really leaned into the questions of faith, belief and divinity that clearly animated zhao

      Yeah, I'm going to try and do something on the theology of the film. As far as I can see from the reviews, no has picked up that Arishem is Hashem & the Eternals are angels in the Miltonic tradition (i.e. divided on how they relate to the Divine)

          That and the question of then as colonizers/instruments of genocide.

          Have you seen many reviews that dig into the theological elements? I’d love to see some that tackle Ikaris as a fundamentalist/evangelical

          Glad someone else saw this. I'm confused by the Snyder comparisons because the Eternals aren't gods, they're angels. Arishem is the God(and judge) in this.

          No way I kept thinking how Arishem sounds like Hashem but wasn't sure if this was a reach.

          Also please write about the Theology of it. That to me was the most interesting part.

          Jack Kirby read Chariots of the Gods? and thought wow that would be a sick comic book.
