Eternals could have been incredible, and there are many amazing factors in this film. The visuals are wonderful, the characters have potential, and the director clearly has talent, with some absolutely beautiful shots. It truly is a beautiful movie. But Eternals being a movie may be its biggest flaw.
The characters were full of potential; they still have some potential. But their stories, personalities, personal struggles, inner thoughts and feelings, major plot details, all of it is rushed, to the point where it pretty much ruins this film. Sometimes they just say a character's detail instead of showing it off naturally or within the story. At times, the film and its script treats the audience like we're stupid. The absurd amount of characters in this film is more of a disadvantage than anything. This film probably would have worked much better as a series, or a multi-part film series, allowing it to span its plot across multiple episodes or movies, and in likely six hours minimum.
This movie is a prime example of how important plot and characters are to a movie, because if you don't have that, everything else you have almost doesn't matter.

We Baby Bears, without considering the original show, is a decent show. It's art style and animation is well done, and the bears are cute, the voice acting is great, and the premise is interesting.
But as a prequel/spin-off to the original series, it's mediocre. While I do like the bears, setting, and art style, it is basically a polar (or ice) opposite of the original We Bare Bears. Ice Bear is more talkative than I'd want him to be, the premise of the show doesn't make canonical sense compared to the much more realistic nature of the original series (or as realistic as a show with walking and talking bears can be).
This series is good on its own and can definitely find a supportive audience, and is better than other shows that aged down characters. But as a prequel to one of the most unique Cartoon Network series, yeah it's pretty iffy. This show probably wouldn't be getting such a mixed reaction if the original series was still running, and not having this basically be a replacement. While I still somewhat enjoy this new series, this also just makes me want a continuation of the original We Bare Bears, even in comic form.

This movie is awful. It's uninteresting, unfunny, and 8-Bit Christmas is just a superior gaming-themed movie.
But the appearance of Scott the Woz did save this movie from getting a 1/10 from me. In fact, he's the only reason I know about this move. His appearance just didn't feel like it wasn't taken advantage of though, even if his cameo was kinda funny, and the only part of the movie I laughed at.
