Phastos. Phastos has a family back home. His love for his husband and son drive him to want to save earth, despite seeing some of humanity's greatest tragedies (that he helped engineer by bolstering our technology). He finds love amidst the pain he's witnessed.
Kingo. Kingo is a kind of self-love. He seems to think of himself first in his narcissistic personality, and abandoning Sprite. In the end, he grows a little, where his love for his friends help him make the choice not to fight them (though he doesn't wish to help humanity).
Sersi. Sersi loves Ikaris deeply, but loves humanity more and does her best to save the earth. In the end, she is extremely forgiving. She forgives Ikaris, and Sprite. She radiates power, and makes her choice out of nothing but love, believing humanity is worth saving.
Love was always there, embodied across all of the characters in a myriad of ways. I thought this was beautiful, because at the very heart of the movie is a question I found I've been grappling with as of late: is humanity deserving of love? Some days I'm not sure.
Some days I find it really easy to slip into my doom scrolling ways, and to think "fuck all of this." That the end is near, and nothing matters. That people are inherently cruel and that's all there is to it. I saw these same thoughts reflected in the Eternals.
Their various doubts, regrets, rage, and love for humanity all packed into one. They wept for themselves and for each other. They experienced betrayal and learned how to live with it.
They pieced themselves back together as they watched humanity rip each other apart, and still, after thousands of years, decided we are all still worthy of love.
They reminded me that all of these feelings can co-exist, and that ultimately, it's okay to love something that's flawed. It's okay to hold onto hope, and to believe humanity is worth saving.
