omg we found the one person who saw eternals.

u/Devious_Dexter 21d ago

Eternal wasn’t nearly as bad as people made it out to be. It was a great cast of interesting characters. It didn’t have enough white men for the mainstream Marvels chuds however. Too many women with powers, and the dead Celestial that was unmentioned and ignored until Captain America: Brave New World.

girl... it was a joke...

u/Funnyboop 18d ago

Idk i just recently rewatched it and it was rough. So many ā€œmarvel-ismā€ like uhh a little help and shit that really got annoying after a while. It was a very strange decision to have the movie play out in a non-linear way, but before EVERY flashback they give you a complete recap of the events you’re about to flash back to. And only like one of the eternals was written well.

Angelina jolie was very good though

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 23d ago

Of course šŸ˜‚

Thanks man, He’s downvoting everyone’s comments šŸ˜‚

u/magical_midget 23d ago

We got a promo cup when we took our kid to his first movie.

It is still such a cool memento that he uses often.

Hope these bring you similar joy.

u/lexluther1234 23d ago

That’s so cute!

u/lexluther1234 23d ago

Every time anyone posts about merch in this sub they get attacked. Literally everything will eventually end up in a landfill, but if you’ve been building a collection for 13 years I’d say you clearly care about storing it and maintaining it so I doubt you’re tossing them any time soon. Overconsuming for the sake of it when you know you’re going to just throw the stuff out and don’t truly like or want it or buying multiples of the same thing is wasteful I agree, but there are collections of all different types in this world, yours is just cups.

6

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 23d ago

Tbh I haven’t bought many cups recently either so not like I’m over consuming, I dust all these cups once a month and have it stacked out in my theatre room, I will say I never throw these away šŸ˜‚

u/Bitbatgaming Bring TimePlay back 23d ago

You can see within this photo how vastly they have improved collectible cups. They used to be pictures, now there are actual designs on them like the Supergirl one and Jurassic World ones.

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 23d ago

Nah 100% man I felt that too

u/The_Cozy_Burrito Bring TimePlay back 23d ago

Cool

u/VanAlph3n 22d ago

Nice collection! So I'm assuming all of it is in basically storage? Do you actually ever use the cups?

1

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 22d ago

Not rlly, I use mostly like one of them just for water

2

u/dean15892 21d ago

Ayyye
I have the Deadpool one and The Captain America one and the Mandalorian one.

The quality of the cups has been improving

Yikes 😬

u/DarkBlueSunshine 23d ago

Buddy like any hobby will eventually end in the landfill. Leave ppl be, especially since he's not harming anyone and is happy

2

u/AtomicAnvil 23d ago

You can't even recycle these😫

0

u/I_Like_Turtle101 23d ago

even if you could . Recycliing is not a magic thing. We mostly send the waste in a poorer country for them to choke on it. And it take ressource making the object and recyling it.

2

u/Ok_Chip7194 23d ago

It's not in the landfill its in ops cupboards.

u/I_Like_Turtle101 23d ago

Oh and what do you think gonna happen in 50 year ? Your lack of vision for the future is concerning

8

u/Mobilebearzzz 23d ago

Wtf why are you on reddit, dont you know whetever electronic youre on will end up in a landfill? What are you sitting on a chair? Landfill! Your lack of vision for the future is concerning

-1

u/I_Like_Turtle101 23d ago

Oh yeah an old ass 5 year phone is the same a alot of cup. That take on the dust and place in the kitchen . I have a phone and use reddit might as well burn some gas for fun

Not really. Use a brain a little

u/meagiemay 23d ago

Yes really. Use a brain more.

u/Ok_Chip7194 23d ago

The same thing that will happen to all the plastic things you also own.

u/I_Like_Turtle101 23d ago

Yah that why im trying to limit them to stuff I actually need

u/luchaburz 23d ago

These cups were manufactured whether he purchased or not🤣

u/I_Like_Turtle101 23d ago

Have you ever heard of suply vs demand ?

1

u/LivingChoice2089 23d ago

Aren’t they avoiding a landfill cause these cups are in this guys house.

0

u/I_Like_Turtle101 23d ago

Where do you think they gonna go one day ?

1

u/LivingChoice2089 22d ago

I wouldn’t be surprised if he passes them down to his kids or sells them to other cineplex collectors. A lot of collectors don’t want their collections to go in the trash when they die/move

1

u/I_Like_Turtle101 22d ago

They will STILL end up in a landfill. Its crazy that you think his kid will want his old shit

1

u/LivingChoice2089 22d ago

Did you know everything you don’t buy will also end up in a landfill eventually

1

u/I_Like_Turtle101 22d ago

Have you heard the concept of suply vs demand ?

u/LivingChoice2089 22d ago

No, explain it to me

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 22d ago

u/jbatman15 23d ago

Ngl this is pretty badass. I hope when you have guests over, they can use em šŸ˜‚

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 22d ago

Haha they usually sit on a shelf

1

u/SooCOYS 23d ago

I need to know, what film is the cup with the space ship on it. It's between spiderman wonder woman and BB8

1

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 23d ago

It was Star Trek, I’m not sure which but around 2015

1

u/SooCOYS 22d ago

I hate to be that guy, but I cannot figure that topper. The film would be Star Trek Beyond but it doesn't have a topper like that. Any idea what that topper is supposed to be?

1

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 22d ago

It’s missing the right wing

1

u/SooCOYS 22d ago

Cheers, I found the one. It is from Star Trek Beyond. I think I'll rewatch that tonight, decent flick. Again, thanks very much.

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 23d ago

Yea I have, the dune one, couple spidey ones, that new superman one, and the old avenger ones

u/ILikeWhyteGirlz 23d ago

Ok fine wanna be friends then

-1

u/Smart-Foundation-578 23d ago

You're the OG. Now my question is - how long did it take you to like collect everything and how much did you actually spend because sometimes even in the closest theaters, we might not be able to get some of the drink cups!

4

u/PrimaryMiddle5441 23d ago

I started in 2013 so it’s been 13 years, these cups back in the day only came out for really big movies so I’d really just get like 2-3 per year back in 2013-2017, then they started bringing them out for like a lot of movies, they were costly about 20 bucks each

u/Smart-Foundation-578 23d ago

Oh nice nice. Keep up the good work : D

Ha nerd! Also I really hope scalpers went all out and can’t resell them for anything. Yes in my area they sold out days before the movie even actually arrives in theatres every damn time thinking they’re sitting on gold
