Big fan of the podcast. I was kinda shocked yesterday that you guys didn’t cover what I thought to be the biggest story coming out of the Eternals premiere. And no, I’m not talking about the spoiler, but I’m talking about the ones who spoiled! I couldn’t believe that some reporters were openly talking about the events of the post credits scene. Is this… allowed? Based on your lack of comment, I have to assume there’s either some journalistic loyalty or maybe this is more normal than I would expect. Will there be consequences for the spoilers? Doesn’t that hurt his job? Or am I over blowing everything!! I don’t know what to think but I’m still frustrated and I’m hoping you guys can break this down for me.” Also mentioned: All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
