"The Marvel EIC Chair has a certain curse that goes along with it: it tends to drive people insane, and ultimately, out of the business altogether. It is the notorious last stop for many staffers, as once you've sat in The Big Chair, your pariah status is usually locked in." Christopher Priest
The brief appearance of the The Celestials in GOTG got a huge fan reaction. Perhaps that was one of the things that got them thinking about an Eternals movie?
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
Since the MCU is starting over again they need something that will delve in to the origins of superpowered beings and Marvel History - there is no better IP than Eternals for that. Even If it is a boring movie at least it will have set up a lot of other movies going forward.

I'm not a fan of Disney or their "Let's make everything Guardians of the Galaxy, add more quips and pop culture references/songs" formula but I can't imagine anyone in their right mind is saying, "Hey guys, have you seen what DC is doing? We need to emulate that!"
Oh, you don’t need to imagine it. The Russos straight up said it.

They probably should have gone the Fantastic Four route, introduce Doom and other aspects of the wider Universe. Then bring Eternals in and finally X-men.
But I do find Eternals a weird comic to put on screen, unlike Fantastic Four or X-Men or the Avengers, they don’t really have any defining personalities. I’m enjoying the current run, but to put this on screen for 2 and a half hours would bore to living Hell out of me.
Honestly, I’ve been tired of the MCU since the first Avengers so my excitement for this one is pretty much minimum.

I always thought the concept of this movie was a big reach. Heck the concept of the comic is a big reach. But thats ok, live and learn.
Civil War was not a response to BvS, it was planned long before. BvS and Justice League were in response to Avengers. It's the DCU that is responding to Marvel's success, not the other way around. If you read the quote in context, they a.ready had Civil War pitched and Feige said that BvS announcement made him agree to it.
I mean why would the most successful franchise in history respond to one with mixed success?
