Shocked to learn that that one Eternal's name is not, in fact, "Angelina Jolie". Also all the others have names too, wtf.

Does Richard Madden ever have a beard in the promotional material that has been released? I’m trying to figure out if a McDonald’s toy has spoiled something about this movie for me.

But the real story about Kingo is that I was informed by MCU stans that Kingo is a traditional Japanese name, so I don't know how or why Kingo ended up in Bollywood. Maybe it has something to do with the Eternals nuking Hiroshima.

It's because he doesn't look Japanese.

It's an American production so it doesn't really matter, and 99% sure that the film is not even gonna touch that Indian/Pakistani identity. Though I'm sure that there's plenty of Hindu fascists and reactionaries making up facebook groups to boycott the film over it. poo poo is real bad over there, and even Indian Muslim actors are starting to feel the heat.

Kingo joined the Indian National Army under SC Bose.

I am surprised that it didn't come from adding -o to King, like Eclipso or Sinestro

Kingo and his butler was honestly the high point of the film. But I have the mind of a child.

He got the most reaction from the audience here by far sooo... well, second from the ear deafening squeeeeing when Harry Styles showed up

I get the impression that Eternals probably should have been a Disney+ series instead of a movie. likely wouldn't have solved every problem the film seems to have, but one thing a lot of the reviews agree on is that even at two and a half hours, it's still trying to introduce too many characters and deliver too much backstory for a feature-length running time, and giving those more breathing room wouldn't have hurt.

I saw Kingo at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

The jarring transition is because it's 2 separate shots - one of CGI Angelina fighting a monster, and one of real Angelina finishing her twirl, so there's not actually any transition of all - just a hard cut.

The reason it's in the trailer is because trailers aren't made based on what parts of the movie are actually finished - the VFX studio just gets a list of shots that they need to work up to a level of "good enough", and usually aren't given a lot of time to do it so you have a lot of cut corners like CGI Angelina not kicking up any sand on that beach she's sliding all over.

You can actually imagine the process by which it comes to be. You've got this incomplete but kind of dynamic CGI shot, but it doesn't show your star (and Jolie is one of the few truly a-list people to be in the MCU) so you need to show the star. The thing is, the transition shot isn't finished, but the marketing has its demands, and so you throw them together very awkwardly.

You couldn't make that movie today but I'm glad it exists. Crazy to think it came out the same year as Iron Man, you couldn't get RDJ near a role like that now.

Edit: For those that don't get the reference.
