Here’s what we know about The Eternals. The Eternals are the superheroes based on the Marvel Comics with the same name. They are God-like heroes who have existed on the Earth since the beginning. They have seen mankind evolve and develop with time. The Eternals chose not to interfere with the lives of the people on the earth. The Eternals have been hiding on the planet for thousands of years. And were still hiding when Thanos invaded the planet and swiped off half the population.
Since the trailer dropped on 24th May 2021, fans have been giving mixed responses. Some have hyped the cinematography and others have criticized the production and whatnot. But the major thing that came out after the trailer launch was one question. The question is- Why did the Eternals not stop Thanos? Where were these God-like superheroes when that giant creature was about to end everything? Here’s what we know about the issue.
Why did The Eternals not stop Thanos?
The Eternals were living on the Earth for thousands of years, peacefully. They saw the growth of the planet, the growth of various civilizations, along the demolition. They were there to help mankind in every possible way. And one day, they decided to stop interfering in the lives of the people and stay hidden. As a result, the God-like superheroes kept their profile hidden from the world and kept waiting for the right time to reveal their identity. Also, the reason for hiding was to protect the Earth from the Deviants. With the re-conciliation of the Eternals, after thousands of years, fans have gone crazy to see them back in action. On one hand, people are excited to see the Alien cum Gods in action. On the other hand, fans are angry about their absence from the scenes when Thanos arrived. The question has turned out into memes that are flooding the internet. For some have taken it as their way of stopping the Deviants. While the others are accusing them of being ignorant and neglecting the crisis on the planet. Whether it was their way of stopping the Deviants or not, The Eternals should not be blamed alone. There are other superheroes who did not show up to help the Avengers at the time of crisis. Superheroes like X-Men, Wolverine, and the Fantastic Four were completely out of the scene, just like the Eternals. There must be some problems, some reasons which stopped the Eternals from helping the Avengers and stopping Thanos. We should wait for the film’s release to know the actual reason.
