The Marvel Cinematic Universe certainly knows how to hype up a future release and the reception around the teaser for Eternals proves this. The characters are largely unknown to mainstream audiences, but the presence of actors like Angelina Jolie, Gemma Chan, and Richard Madden has prospective viewers excited.

As most MCU fans are known to do, they’ve taken to social media and created memes to make their hype for Eternals known. With the movie ushering in Phase Four of the MCU, it’s worth checking out how fans have reacted to this new era of the series arriving with the Eternals.

10 It’s A Game Of Thrones Reunion

By now, fans of the MCU expect several things to be the same from one movie to another. However, Eternals is bringing together actors who already shared the screen in a big-time series. As it is, both Richard Madden and Kit Harrington played members of the Stark family in Game of Thrones.

This particular fan feels their mind has been blown by the two actors appearing in an MCU movie. It’s certainly interesting to see how their chemistry will be like this time in the more family-friendly, superhero backdrop of the MCU.

9 It’s A Good Year

At the beginning of the year, Black Widow was the most anticipated superhero movie to look forward to and the list has since swelled. Of course, the MCU isn’t the only one to release new content, with this fan showing their happiness at the fact that a number of new releases are on the horizon.

Chief among them is the premiere of Eternals, which will be released around the same time as Dune and the two volumes of Money Heist. All in all, Eternals is going to be the icing on the cake for what should be a good second half of the year.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY

8 Music Brings Everything Together

Not only are Kit Harrington and Richard Madden reunited by the MCU, but another Game of Thrones alum, composer Ramin Djawadi, is contributing to Eternals. As Game of Thrones fans are aware, the show’s musical mastery was in a class of its own.

Due to this, the fan in question is voicing their gratitude through a Wayne’s World clip and it most certainly applies in this situation. It also effectively ensures that Game of Thrones fans will check out Eternals while present MCU fans will get to experience Djawadi’s musical expertise.

7 When The Eternals Had No Care To Give

The Eternals are confirmed to be among the most powerful beings in existence in the MCU, with these characters said to be as strong as Thanos was. And yet, it’s hard to believe that they did nothing when they saw so many world-ending disasters happen.

After all, there have been at least three major events such as this, starting from the Chitauri Invasion, to Ultron’s near-extinction level event, and finally the Battle of Earth. With the Eternals missing each time, this fan suggests the characters simply didn’t care.

6 It’s Still Too Soon

Despite two years having passed since Avengers: Endgame, fans are still mourning the losses of Captain American and Iron Man. The Eternals trailer had a voiceover acknowledging their absence, with this fan still finding it hard to stomach.

According to them, Steve Rogers’ conclusion was largely unsatisfactory and Eternals making reference to him as if it’s time to move on is the last thing they want to do. All in all, it was clear the purpose of this narration in the trailer was for fans to accept that a new phase in the MCU has arrived.

5 Now That’s Representation

The most significant way the Eternals will shake up the MCU is by bringing in a diverse cast that’s never been seen before in the franchise. Kumail Nanjiani, a Pakistani-American, was shown taking part in a cultural dance during the trailer.

This Pakistani fan is proud of the MCU’s bid to be more inclusive and is making his approval known. It’s definitely a breath of fresh air to see all kinds of people of the world are included in this franchise and Eternals should be the first step toward this.

4 Scarlet Witch Isn’t That OP

WandaVision brought new revelations for the MCU with Scarlet Witch said to be the most powerful character in the universe. However, the Eternals are supposed to be centuries old, meaning their powers should be greater.

Due to this, this particular fan finds it hysterical that people are still touting Scarlet Witch as the MCU’s strongest hero. In fact, they expect the Eternals to make a mockery out of Scarlet Witch’s feats. It’s only when the movie comes out when fans will know for sure how to settle this debate.

3 Turning A Blind Eye

In addition to the Eternals turning a blind eye to all the calamity on Earth, they’re guiltier of their inaction when Thanos completed the Snap. This led to the Blip, which is the term given for the time when half of all life was eliminated.

Considering how powerful these characters are supposed to be, they should be held accountable for not doing anything when the world needed help. This fan tweeted this meme as a way of portraying the attitude the Eternals had during the Blip.

2 Who Needs A Plot When These Actresses Are There?

The actresses featured in Eternals are fan favorites, Gemma Chan previously appearing as a different character in Captain Marvel while Salma Hayek and Angelina Jolie are legends in the industry. This fan has made it clear they only intend to watch for the actors.

It’s understandable, too, seeing as Eternals is a movie whose plot hasn’t been revealed in detail and whose characters haven’t been mainstream popular until. The MCU has cleverly picked a cast whom audiences are aware of in order to entice them into checking out Eternals.

1 Just Here For The Comments

It’s not for certain just how great the powers of the Eternals are, but if they have the ability to perceive things beyond their physical locations then this meme may just be true. If they did know how the Avengers treated Captain Marvel, the Eternals may well have been enjoying the show.

After all, it appears as if it would have been entirely too easy to stop Thanos had the Eternals joined the fight, which is something Captain Marvel was blamed for when she didn’t show up in Avengers: Infinity War.
