After an exclusive run in theaters, Marvel’s The Eternals will be heading to Disney Plus on January 12, 2022. Unlike Disney’s previous experiment of making subscriber pay extra to watch some premium movies, they’ve decided The Eternals will be available for free (you still have course need to pay a subscription fee to access D+).
In addition, Eternals will be one of the Marvel movies presented on Disney+ in an “IMAX Enhanced” version, which will give subscribers an expanded aspect ratio.
I haven’t seen it yet, but according to Rotten Tomatoes, The Eternals ranked the worst Marvel films of all time… even lower than Black Widow (which I thought was so-so) and Shang Chi (which I absolutely hated). Just based on how everyone say that The Enternals is not a Marvel-esque film, I feel like I’m already hating it. I guess I can’t make that judgement yet until I finally see it on Disney Plus this January 12th.
Hopefully, Spider-Man: No Way Home will save Marvel from a series of terrible films.

Admittedly, the latest Disney Plus’ show, Hawkeye started off extremely slow… even with a double episode release for the pilot. What they should have done was released the first three episodes at once… because, man, episode three sure made up for all the setup in the first two episodes.
The show took inspiration from the Hawkeye comic book by Matt Fraction & David Aja, and clearly the art direction was stolen from Aja’s art style.
Taking place after the Avengers: Endgame, Hawkeye finds himself saving a Kate Bishop in his old Ronin costume. One thing leads to another, and now all Hawkeye wants to do is find his way home for Christmas.
What I like about the series is that you hear Christmas songs everywhere! There’s lots of Easter Eggs for comic book fans, and I think it does a good job in balancing humor and seriousness. The funny stuff, like Larping, may actually be too silly… but as far as I’m concern, the fight sequences and action makes up for the unbelievable comedy.
Like all previous Marvel television shows, like WandaVision, Loki, and Falcon and t he Winter Soldier, none of these Disney shows ends very well. They sure have a strong start, but it just always fails to stick the landing.
I’m hoping, since the Hawkeye show is based on the comic book, that it should have a good ending. If anything, at least it would set up the Echo show or, perhaps, a new Black Widow series… although there’s a lot of buzz that this show will re-introduce Daredevil and the Kingpin.

Comedian, Bill Burr is wrapping up his 2021, this December.
For television, especially Star Wars fans, they might actually know Burr as Mayfeld on Disney Plus’ The Mandalorian. Say what you will, but I felt that Mando saved Star Wars. Disney really destroyed the brand with their movies… but thankfully, at least th TV shows didn’t suck. Everyone is really looking forward the new third season to The Mandalorian (entitled The Book of Boba Fett) in 2022.
Anyway, Burr has made a name for himself with his Monday Morning Podcast (it’s one of the most downloaded comedy podcasts), as well as appearing on Saturday Night Live last October, as well as appearing on movies and television shows.
Tour dates:
Dec 16 – Indianapolis, IN – Murat Theatre
Dec 17 – Indianapolis, IN – Murat Theatre
Dec 18 – Indianapolis, IN – Clowes Memorial Hall
Dec 30 – Phoenix, AZ – Arizona Federal Theater
