Oscar Isaac is clearly the best thing about this show, his ability to change his facial expressions, gait, voice, and mannerisms is astounding.
Man's physical acting is so top notch he snuck an entire third character in and no one realized it until the finale.
I mean...they wouldn't have if people who read the comics hadn't exploded about it all over the internet.
My favorite part was when Khonshu was speaking through him. His facial expressions were cracking me up. May Calamawy had a similarly great scene when Taweret spoke through her.
it really is
I don't think it's fair that he gets Star Wars, Dune, and MCU. Give someone a shot.
@@erakfishfishfish Khonshu speaking through Mark sounded like 'Broken' Matt Hardy
I hate when people get annoyed about the "bad" accent in this show. That's on purpose! The reason the accent is bad is because Steven is based off of what Marc thinks a British accent would sound like coming out of him. So when he broke down and created Steven, based off of the movie character he liked, it wasn't a natural accent obviously. It is literally an American who thinks he's British and is trying his best to imitate the accent.
Thank you! I was just explaining this to someone three days ago!
Not only that, but it was an American CHILD whose only exposure to a British accent was bad adventure movies.
Don't justify a bad accent like it's on purpose. It's not some 5D chess play of filmmaking.
But tbh, I thought it's a good one.
@@jankyyard5610 It’s not an excuse- it’s the point.
There are a lot of British people that actually said that his accent wasn’t bad and was accurate enough to fool them before they started to watch some of the interviews. There was actually one person I was watching reactions to this show that was British and she said that it was an inflection that doesn’t get represented in television very often for no reason in particular. So, it could be that most Americans watching the show aren’t used to that variant of the accent we recognize. I’d have to agree because personally, for me, if I hadn’t known that Oscar wasn’t British he would have fooled me too. I was a bit surprised because it’s an accent I’ve never really heard before, and I used to watch a lot of a British television when I was a teenager, so, I got used to the usual types of Brits.
Some actually thought he was doing a bad New York accent for Marc🤷🏻♂️😂
"Don't know who Moon Knight is? Neither does he!" WOW that hit so hard; I love how removed this show is from everything else in Marvel, you can watch with no other knowledge, and it's a nice break from frantically binging content before release day
Fr bro, its amazing
I know like it’s such a breath of fresh air to finally have a non MCU tied MCU series
Am I the only one who really enjoyed this? The end got out of hand but I went in expecting a by-the-numbers marvel show and got some really interesting character and world development out of it
A lot of people enjoyed it but it didn't make much sense at the end

ok
“Don’t know who Moon Knight is? Neither does he!” Good one!

Was totally expecting, "Neither does Disney!"

This is essentially the only Disney+ marvel show you're able to watch without watching almost everything marvel related since 2000.
And despite that, still sucked.

But it kinda did underwhelming. It’s not a billion dollar film after all
@@Peterincan man, can we be a little less judgmental, i know its not on par with the best MCU movies but its miles ahead of anything that marvel made recently, so just let us enjoy this.
@@Peterincan it's miles better than Dr Strange 2.
@@lawliet25 what you smokin?
I actually enjoyed Hawke’s performance. Some lines were whack and the third act did him a disservice but I think he did what he could with the material. The standout for me was the ending to one of the episodes where he’s talking to Khonshu’s statue about how his torment forged him.
How they had Ethan Hawke and didn't give him more and better stuff to do is wild.
@@senatorsparky He served his purpose in 6th episodes, maybe if he had 9.....
That moment Screen Junkies forgot the most important part of this entire series: Moon Knight's third personality, Jake Lockley
I think that was on purpose.
Don’t spoil
@@maydaytweezy3000 HT always bring up important plot points, everyone knows to expect spoilers if watching HT
I figured them mentioning Khonsu when naming the three personalities was their nod to Jake, but I could be wrong
Yeah I noticed that;
That Steven's impersonation at the end was flawless.
That was bloody brilliant
This is how I towlk!
"a bit boring inuit..." made burst out laughing
'innit?'
Innit?
Big props to whomever came up with *One Flew Over the Khonshu's Nest.* That was a good one.
Thats Republicans joke about the body was a pretty sic burn, LoL
The GOP joke was top class

I’m sorry but I absolutely loved this show from start to finish it was a breath of fresh air to see marvel allow. Director to have actual creative vision for the first time since endgame
Wandavision was also pretty creative and original.....for a while i suppose
Me too
Breath of fresh air is the word!
Preach
I disagree with you about Ethan Hawke. I don't think he was phoning it in, I enjoyed his performance. There was a subdued intensity about him that just made him enjoyable throughout even if he wasn't a flashy villain till the end. I really enjoyed the series over all and definitely would wish it'd get a sequel to see where they'd go. Oscar Isaac was awesome.
I don't know how true-to-comic this series is, but I definitely enjoyed the cinematography, cast and acting. To a non-comic reader, this feels like a breath of fresh air compared to yet another radioactive-manifested superhero.
So you just like looking at pretty pictures ?

Loved this show, top-notch acting of the main casts and I don’t mind the blackouts bc we are first seeing it through their eyes and like us, the boys don’t know about the 3rd persona. Sure they could have given us one more episode to let the show breathe a little more but I enjoyed watching it. The Republicans line had me laughing Non stop
Gee, wonder why
Dude, "doesn't do justice to the subject matter of mental illness"? This is the best (and by best I mean most respectful and researched) portrayal of DID I've seen in media. There are a few Hollywood spins on it (cuz Hollywood), but from what I've seen from DID System CZcamsrs, it seems to tackle elements in a pretty respectful way (other than the complete lack of a trigger warning at the start of episode 5). The black outs are true to DID, so that part where action got blacked out didn't bother me. It's from the point of view of Marc and Steven, so we'll get to Jake's POV once Marc and Steven are ready to explore that and get to know him better. Also, Konshu is not an alter in their system. He's a god possessing them, just like how Taweret possessed Layla in ep 6. But the line about an Eygptian god possessing the first Jewish superhero was exactly what I thought too. Such irony.
DID is mind-bogglingly rare (and even debated if it even exists). The DID people on TikTok and CZcams are pretending to have it for attention
Nah
I personally think Mr. Robot was better at using DID
@JanusPapers There are plenty of fights in the series. Some are just cut out due to switching identities to keep those identities hidden until later.
The thing about DID youtubers is that you really shouldnt take medical advice from mentally ill people.
He deserves an Oscar just for that joint screaming in terror scene. It’s a completely different type of terror across 2 of the same face, so subtle, so beautiful
Oscar for Oscar Isaac for giving an Oscar worthy performance.
Would be an Emmy but yeah

They don't award Oscars to TV or streaming sh*t.
@@generalyellor8188 Your right for TV it's an emmy, but for movie,.. Coda just won 3 Oscars, so streaming sh*t has won Oscars... It was released via streaming on Apple +...

Which is never mentioned by any character across 6 episodes
@@Vapouriste Because it's evident in how he creates the outcome.
@@adamliebreich-johnsen6104 Not in the slightest. It bears no consequence on any interaction across the entire season.
@@Vapouriste because it's irrelevant to discuss to the main story . It's just sudden details that are made for viewers to realise . It's called SHOW NOT TELL .
It doesn’t change the issue of it being bad. Steven is still supposed to think he’s British which is laughable if he heard himself lmao
Ye, this is probably the only one of their videos where I don't agree with a lot of the criticisms. Idk how you can portray the whole problem of mental illness whilst making it a superhero show that is capable of entertaining people at a commercial scale. I feel like that have done a beautiful job given all the criteria (I have not read any of the moonknight comics and am not commending on that one point). I love that they never showed certain fighting scenes. Makes things a lot more menacing. Plus, it is not like we have not seen what moonknight is capable of. So, the rest of it can be left to imagination. Only problem is that I hope the hype they have created for the third personality does not overshadow the next movie or show in this thing.
Never showing fight scenes made it even worse not menacing, also defeating the main villian was also a blackout made it even worse..
Are people actually hyped on jake lockley?
Did you see the mid-credits scenes in the final episode? Answered some of this.
@@suyogd2235 damn, I didnt think people were divided on this. I saw it with a bunch of friends. We were annoyed about the whole thing first. But, everything else about the show seemed good. So, that slowly stopped being a focus. Atleast, that is what I thought the writers' intentions were.
@@TomDytorn I am :D

This just got a whole lot realer
I've heard people say how his British accent is terrible (I think it sounds fine but I'm not British lol). But then someone made the great point that Steven Grant is an alter and not actually British so really it's an American who thinks he's British putting on the accent so it's fairly accurate
It’s not terrible, it’s good. I’m english
I’m English too and I have to admit it did bother me a first, if felt off to me and he was saying slang weirdly. But like you say I completely forgave it later when you discover that Steven is an alter ego he’s not actually from the UK so he’s basically Mark’s idea of a London accent, I think the point is it’s supposed to be a little fake sounding.
But that doesn’t change the fact the actual British people weren’t like..WTF.
if someone puts on a bad accent in front of native speakers they don’t usually just act like this is normal
@@ceezyjeffezy2213 yeah fair enough if someone started talking to me like Steven here I would be wondering what is wrong with you? Maybe that’s why everyone around him in London basically hated him. But then again, it is London.
Londoner here. It’s good, I don’t think a British person would realise that quickly.
Having said that, some parts are weird which I don’t judge him for. On set apparently there were British people Oscar Isaac would ask to confirm if what he said sounded believable and they would just breeze over it and not help him, “yeah, sounds fine”.
Sounds like Typical British indifference to me.
1 thing i appreciated about the show was how it incorporated the Mr Knight personality. Steven had no idea what layla meant by "suit" but he did technically have access to knoshu's armor. So his personality conjured up a "business" suit style of the armor of konshu while Marc has the traditional moon knight suit
The Mr Knight suit Steven conjured was actually a white version of the gold homeless man Steven talked to in episode 1's suit
@@doofgaming4158 woah never though of that.
@@doofgaming4158 Is he homeless? I thought he was just a guy that does a Living Statue act at that place
@@GweiTheLeafChild His name is Bertrand Crawley and atleast in the comics, he's a homeless man who likes to act
@@doofgaming4158 you just blew my mind. I never thought about it that way, damn Steven is so messed up in the head. the statue guy who he shares his life secrets with is the only thing that he could use to form his suit? jesus Steven get into therapy, how is he the coping personality?

surprised by how critical the ending of this video was
Considering how many things they got wrong about the show (Konshu is not an alter, Jake is, Marc has DID, not PTSD, Marc didn’t kill Layla’s father, and why did they make it sound like Steven was the one in the field of reeds?), they didn’t seem like they were very invested.
@@MsDiving1 yeah, they definitely didnt watch the show 🤦

"Didnt do mental health justice?" I've heard a lot of ppl with DID appreciate the show and say this is actually a good media representation
*DID* they really say that?
I understood but they didn't remain in the path of mental illness which was fascinating but they directly went to the big kaiju fighting, big monster fighting one another since episode 5 was so good and suddenly it becomes big monster fighting.
@@parveenakhter981 I mean it is a marvel superhero show first. So they had to get around to it.
Ain’t no way people with actual DID black out and do stuff off screen
I genuinely don't understand anyone who didn't like Moon Knight. I was enthralled by it. And I'm not a massive comic book person (though I am definitely a major MCU geek), yet this entire show was pretty great. *Oscar Isaac is so amazing that there is no award great enough to adequately honor him for his performance.*
I'm curious where people got the idea that Moon Knight is bad or not popular... Like, most reviews have been positive and it got more chatter than any Disney+ series since Wandavision.
The Edgy and dark section of internet, who wants everything Edgy and dark, and everything rated r, and nonsense violence instead of meaningful character build ups.
It was unmeasurably better and more entertaining than falcon and winter soldier, that's for sure.
None of these aimless,meandering and bloated Marvel shows are good

I feel like the marvelly superhero part was nothing too out of the ordinary or special, but the acting (mostly Oscar) made this show a blast. Hope to see more of him
Agreed. If they focused on that part instead of the cookie cutter 'save the world superhero's stuff this could have been pretty excellent.

If you liked him in this, and you like folk music, you should watch Inside Llewyn Davis. Oscar Isaac has an almost supernatural ability to make you root for him and like him no matter who he's playing.
I also love Layla because she’s a badass all by herself and not a Mary Sue. The acting and emotional rollercoaster she goes through was all too real
@@fffianist Except his character in ex machina. His acting was excellent but his character awful.
Wish the filmmaking and writing could keep up with Oscar Isaac's performance, he legit deserves an Emmy for this
Okay, but I really have to clarify because I see a lot of people getting this wrong: Marc did NOT kill Layla’s father (and neither did Jake). Additionally, Khonshu is not one of Marc’s alters, although this idea has been played with in the comics, it is made very apparent in the show that Khonshu is a separate entity.
nice that's what i thought too. Steven obviously doesn't kill people and Marc isn't the ultimate survival personality, back then, before Khonshu it was actually Jake, he was the sociopath. Also yes Khonshu is not his alter, Marc/Steven/Jake are his avatar, they get to channel the power he gives them, but he has nothing to do with them.

He was amazing but idk about being best in the mcu. Thinking of Charlie Cox' Daredevil here.
@@TeenPerspektiva Charlie is great but Oscar’s role is so much more demanding. Not only does he have to convincingly play two separate characters that feel like they are different people, but he also has to explore the inner turmoil of what DID entails all doing this while interacting with himself and others. he also does a great job at switching between personas seamlessly. And you never doubt his performance for one second
@@B-Mag Not two bro. Jake Lockley is the best.
Oscar massively over acted in this... in some sense it was deserving, but still, the honest trailer clearly showed how silly some of his “huge acting choices” were.
I like that the whole show was kinda silly and over the top anyway, so Oscar’s performance worked. But in my opinion, it takes a truly great actor to do an amazing job playing a subtle and nuanced character, not just a flamboyant, larger than life character.
In this regard I’d probably put Isaac’s performance alongside Elizabeth Olsen’s performance in WandaVision. They both had to do silly cheesy stuff and make it work alongside deeply emotional intense stuff.
Apart from maybe 2 examples, the fights are only blackouts when the personality in control is unaware of the personality taking over the body (Steven being unaware of Marc, both being unaware of Jake), the rest of the show had actual fight in most episodes that this glossed over since it went against the point that only applies to the first episode.
Overall this seems like a pretty disingenuous “honest” trailer.
there's only 2 fight scenes with actual people in the show and even most of that is just cgi instead of actually choreographed fights
erm except the final battle in the market place.. where the 3rd peresonality takes over. what on earth are you talking. moon knight is in this for 2 minutes 17 seconds. out of like 200 minutes

Fans: Marvel fight scenes all look the same.

To be fair, all that Evil Dead energy was clearly being channeled into Multiverse of Madness.
Shop smart... shop S-Mart... YOU GOT THAT?!!!
I was picturing Marc going "little goodie two shoes, little goodie two shoes" from the mirror or something.
I’ve seen more people saying it represented mental health issues accurately than the other way around
I don't trust the opinion of those who don't have mental illness, and I also don't trust the opinion of those who have mental problems because it is already self-explanatory that they are not in their best minds. LMAO.
It felt very accurate to me, a few creative licenses excused.
@S. G. I also felt that it nice that they didn't try to 'fix' it. They showed that it can be managed and life can go on still having a mental illness
I'm seeing the opposite
It's just very Marvel. They scratch the surface of an issue but really only go skin deep before it gets to serious.
I was skeptical of this show at first, but it actually pulled me in. Great actors and writing that wasn't actually terrible for once.

@@plasticweapon Yeah, it was. Got any actual counterpoints?
At first I wasn’t that much into this series but it got better by the end when they started exploring Marc and Steven’s origins.

to say that they dug down deep to get moon knight, is absurd. all of the main avengers are C-B class characters for marvel.
I thought it was an amazing show and the cast killed it. I’m surprised by how critical the ending of this video was.
The 3rd kaiju ending (using using the celestial was a big reach) and comparing variants to multiple personalities was also a stretch instead of pointing out Mark's dumb logic for not killing th bad guy
@@jiralord7642 yeah that I can get on board with, his decision felt a bit out of nowhere. If Mark and Steven had made the decision together that would have made more sense but they didn’t show that in any way. I also think they way the portrayed the beginning of DID was done well. This was a disappointing video that didn’t give this show enough credit. The only time they referred to Layla was when they called her Mark’s wife.
@@hqb5276 Yeah there skipping of Layleh's character felt odd with no praise or hate, only criticism is she doesn't know his past (which Mark goes to great lengths to hide). Mark and Steven agreen to quit being Moonknight felt proper, but saying Khonshu abandoned his morals when he told them to kill the mass murdering cult leader fused with the mass murdering goddess felt like bad writing even if Jake lockley's scene was good
@@jiralord7642 the decision not to kill Harrow kinda made sense. Mark was sick of killing for Khonshu, it was obvious. It's not like Mark wanted Harrow and Ammit to live, he just wanted the vulture that's had him strung for years to do it himself. Plus Steven and Mark's decision not to kill him worked in favour of revealing the third personality in the end
True. It's like they are nitpicking
Man, I love how the MCU has already created a completely revisionist history of comics.
In the late 90s, the insanely unpopular avengers went through a ton of revisions and retcons in an attempt to bring in new readers. Hero's reborn, Hero's returns, and Avengers vol 3 all flopped and by the 2000s when discussions about the Iron Man movie were starting up, they were considered largely unsellable. Thor, Cap, ant man, and Hulk have all had several revival series (previous to the MCU) that were cancelled before they could even finish. Burning though there A-listers? The core MCU cast was so low on the list that D-listers wouldn't return their calls.
Moonknight, on the other hand, had seen 8 consecutive successful runs and even somehow survived Bendis Bendising the whole thing up in Vol 6. If you were to take a snap-shot of the pre-MCU comic landscape and compare it to the MCU today, Moonknight is probably the second most popular member of the MCU.
Yeah, it's so interesting that Marvel was ready to sell all it's characters to Sony for next to nothing and Sony thought they were so useless they turned everything down except Spiderman. In a different universe we might have had a Sony version of Avengers instead.
Bendis gonna Bendis
The best part of the age of Khonshu is the run after it
Moon knight really wasn't all that popular tho. His runs were successful but only to a relatively niche audience. Hes never been Spider-Man or wolverine popular
I specifically called out that fact that he's the SECOND most popular because Spiderman is more popular, and Wolverine is not in the MCU.
So I'm not really sure how your WELL ACTIUALLY is relevant to my comment that the MCU wasn't made up of A-listers, and that Moonknights relative popularity was higher then anyone else in the MCU at the time.
4:25 Oh god damn I laughed so loud and hard at that my dog yelped awake and started barking like crazy, I feel bad but also god damn thats spot on.
That still shot of moon knight and the punishers conversation was legitimate hilarious.
I don’t know about how accurate this was to the comics. But for me its easily the best series Marvel has done.
Read Warren Ellis’ run, then Jeff Lemire’s run of Moon Knight, and you’ll see they got a lot right, even while changing many things about his alters.
Legion. It ruined Moon Knight for me in advance. They have certain similarities, which set certain expectations... And Legion is just so much more fresh and out there and stylish.
@@JaySeal108 Agree he did a amazing job terrific actor.
@@SomeThingOrMaybeAnother Legion series is a fresh new take on his comics and he didn't much had any that type of Asylum story before the series and Moon Knight is based on his Jeff Lemire run.
It's mostly been accurate to his Jeff Lemire run and the character's motivations in deeper level.
"What's his name ? White batman "
That got me 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
Basically 😂😂
I still don't get why people call Moonknight the Batman of the mcu. I can't find any similarities whatsoever...
@@Gisechan They removed most of his similarities. His equipment is mostly Batman-stuff but with moon instead of a bat
*moonknight core fans twitching angrily*
Wow one of those rare times when Marvel allows someone to do something different and suddenly everyone's a critique. Videos like this is the reason why marvel only produces generic content. When such a well-known youtube channel can't appreciate the subtle details of a really engaging show then what incentive does the studio gets to really be bold!?
It's not like there wasn't any action sequence!! No mention of the intricate presentation of Egypt, no mention of the adventure style horror elements of the show. No ! Let's just mention the obvious and show everyone how stupid we can really be. If Steven's British accent didn't feel adorable to you, there's something wrong with you!!
I hope you see the no of dislikes to this video and do better in the future.
This is one of my favorite Marvel shows honestly.
Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law is one of the most underrated animated series in like.. Ever. Props for the reference!
4:30 LMAOOOOO that took me out completely XD
"Ready for action? Moon Knight isn't!"
I think that's my favorite line. 🤓
3:07 you forgot the iconic “take the body, Mark! Take the body!”
2:52 "ugh this reminds me when Four Loko was still legal" I will NEVER forget how insane those were lol
3 errors. Khonshu is not the third, Jake Lockley is. Khonshu is a being outside of Marc/Steven/ Jake on an alternate plan so others can’t see him until he got free from being imprisoned.
Marc/Steven/Jake didn’t kill Layla’s father. The man he worked for did and since Marc tried to save her father and others he was shot and left dying where Khonshu found him.
Third, Marc is the one that made it to the afterlife in the Reeds. Not Steven.
I think the last one was a joke about what Steven would've said if he was the one to get there, but I agree with the rest of your comment.
I think the first error was intentional, they didn't want to spoil the end
It's spoilers after all
Konshu takes over Steven's body when before the god council.
“Marvel has used up their A-listers”
*shows Iron Man*
ME: “Huh, how things change”
How cool it would be if we could see all the black out fights play out in season 2 because we get to see things through Jack's perspective 😌
“Don’t know who Moon Knight is? Neither does he!”
That’s…true.
I think it's actually a secret MCU plan. The infinity saga was all about the sky beams, now we're moving on to kaiju and variants. I'm thinking eventually we're gonna get sky beams that open portals to variant worlds that leak out kaiju.
MOOOOOM! Billy's leaking Kaiju all over the kitchen again!
So… Pacific Rim?
I am 100% okay with this. In the words of Peter Venkman "I love this plan! I'm excited to be a part of it!
@@CelibateCetologist I really want to see a second Pacific Rim movie
They'll have Galactus fight Devil Dinossaur
That “Republicans” line was priceless. Well done.
Yep, it's your body unless the state deems you need a vaccine....
@@mehmeh533 you’re right, genius. It’s the exact same thing, isn’t it?
It was spot on.
I’m pro life, but that was hilarious.
lol literally coping lmao
I'm so glad someone else shouted WRONG KID DIED from Dewey Cox at that scene
Such a fitting title for the series, good one 4:44
Gotta disagree with the part about not fully utilising its cast, bub.
Oscar, Ethan, and May were easily the best thing about this series, with some superb camera work and cinematography, kickass music, and a little bit more maturity for a Marvel flick which is always appreciated.
But the impression of Steven at the end got an almighty chuckle out of me so we'll call it even...Stevens...not even sorry...
........
Definitely under-utilised. They probably carried the show if anything.
"You think you own this body? It belongs to me." Well done.
Republicans!
Oscar Isaac was phenomenal since Ep1. That steak scene was just heart breaking.
Realizing he was unconsciously faking all the phone conversations he had was even sadder, they perfectly nailed the revelation.
One of the best honest trailers!! 🤣🤣🤣
I really enjoyed Ethan Hawke's performance in this show ... I know you joked that he phoned it in, but I think it was really appropriate for the character
I tried to say this with your rationality but ending up just telling Screen Junkies to F____ Off, lol.
ethan hawke has never and will never phone in a single performance, that’s not the kind of actor he is
I think he did a good job, but nothing special. Just the typical 'wise cult-leader who is also evil' deal we've seen in all sorts of movies/games
Konshu isn't a personality. He's the God that instructs Moon Knight. Jake Lockley is the third.
Yeah… they also got the name of the mental disorder wrong and said that he killed Layla’s dad, which he didn’t. Not sure they watched this one.
In the original run it was just Marc and Konshu in his head, that's why everyone thought he was crazy. Also he had no superpowers, he was literally just a white batman copy. I mean Thor and Hercules are walking around; why is Konshu only in Marc's head; wouldn't a god give him powers? Eventually other writers decided that Konshu was "real" and gave him other personalities to make him "actually" crazy.
@@sreidlik *probably never saw
*scene, that's
@@MsDiving1 Unless they are turning Jake into Bushman.
Have y’all ever apologized to Andy yet?
the quality of honest trailers are dropping so fast!!
I love seeing all the positivity about this show in the comments!
Hell’s yeah lads, moon knight was awesome!
I haven't read the comics, but I did enjoy the show. Definitely one of the better live action series.
Makes sense why you liked the show then, you haven't read the comics. They stripped out the character to make a pg13 fantasy adventure, when he should've been given the R rated treatment, to keep it lightly.
@@matheusmoreira9951 accxkktually
@@matheusmoreira9951 it was disneyfied
@@matheusmoreira9951 The silver age comics are not even Rated T 😂
@@matheusmoreira9951 I have read the comics and still liked the show. Marvel has done worse with a lot of characters. Current Dr strange and Spider-Man for example. They're nothing like comic versions of themselves and very annoying to watch. At least moon knight was fun to watch.
“One flew over the Khonshu’s nest.” Absolutely! Perfect! Brava!
finally seen it...aw man you're always right ...one flew over the khonshu's nest is brilliant
I had never read a Moon Knight comic, but this series hooked me on the character.
- the Russiancomicbookgeek channel here on youtube has made some really good moon knight motion comics. He is so much more badass in the comics, he does not have the needy Steven personality in it so if thats a big part of what you liked about the show it could be a let down.
@@Babidi111 probably would be a let down, because I love Steven.
Comics are better
@@DoomMomDot MCU Steven >>>>>>>>>> Comic Steven.
I think Moon Knights character in the show is pretty different from most other interpretations. I think in the comics he is more like Batman, a popular rich guy by day and the Moon Knight by night.
"This reminds me of when Four Loko was still legal" That line is gold
It was funny but it's legal in 49 states still. It never really got "banned"
"You own this body? haha."
REPUBLICANS
HAHAHA. Amazing! :D
This is amazing
