Moon Knight

[3db]

I watched E1 on Disney Plus last night and f'in WOW!!!* I'm hooked!! This promises to a great series. The lead character actor does an awesome job with this.

 

[afterlife2]

I saw it last night too. I enjoyed it too. Hopefully it develops well. Oscar Issac is great in the lead role as is Hawke.

Can't wait to watch this.

The Dream of Oscar Isaac

In which the star of 'Moon Knight' survives a hurricane, wears tie-dye, trips on mushrooms, hosts 'SNL,' and creates art that gets at the rich and baffling complexity of the human experience. But not necessarily in that order.

I dunno man. I'm watching a show named Moon Knight, I'm 90% of the way through it and there's neither hide nor hair of any Moon Knight!

*Edit: FINALLY! Sheesh. Starting ep 2 now.

Just saw what I thought was a movie trailer for Moon Knight rather than a series, but guess it'll probably be both these days from Disney....

I’m watching this series. The double-personality thingy with Steven-Marc is annoying. But I guess nobody is perfect.

Seems to be good overall so far.

Both of me have been enjoying the series so far. Blows all the SW character stories out of the water.

I think my biggest problem with it is the Steven character. He is so unbelievably inept and frustrating to watch.

Not to mention, how much moon knight have we gotten in the first 2 episodes?

I don't hate it tho, still good enough to keep me invested.

Having difficulty getting into it, the protagonist is very is winey and not "Likeable" It's like an Egyptian venom, and I didn't like either of those movies. I am not as familiar with that Marvel Character, will give it a few more episodes to see if captures my interest. I like Oscar Isaac, but not so much here.

This is exactly my issue. Steven is a whiny inept idiot...

Here's a video breakdown of Moon Knight, episode 2, "in which Moon Knight escapes a bunch of vegans by killing their dog...". Lolol

I agree. I can't stand that Steven character. What a loser.

But it has my interest. Definitely still watching for the Marc guy and other characters, not that loser Steven guy.

Another breakdown from other angles. This guy likes to point out similarities and helps give you some background into the character as seen from the comics in comparison to what we've seen so far in the show. He has another channel "Comics Explained" where he covers entire multi issue story arcs from past comics.

 

[Cos]

I didn't want to spoil it, I did the same. I was a comic book guy, and I never even knew about this character until he joined X-force

This dual personality is what makes this series so enjoyable. Its what also made the first Venom movie enjoyable to watch. The whole good guy whooping bad guy's ass gets tiring. Captain America has got to be one of THE DULLEST Marvel characters out there. No depth of character, personality, nadda, zip!!! BORING!!!!

Steve is an inept bungular, Marc appears to be a classic douche bag!!! The semi MoonKnight suit and tie killed me. It was funny.

 

[Pogre]

The semi MoonKnight suit and tie killed me. It was funny.

That suit is actually comic book accurate, tho it represents yet another personality instead of just being Steven like the show. Mr Knight is like his detective persona and Moon Knight is the beating up bad guys personality. Although Mr Knight can kick some ass too.

I agree that the multiple personalities add depth and layers to the character and is absolutely comic canon, but Steven's ineptitude and stupidity are almost too much to watch.

That's kind of the point.

 

[Pogre]

That's kind of the point.

It is, I agree, but sheesh.

Me too. Almost ready to walk away.

It is, I agree, but sheesh.

He acts it a little too well?
