Are we sure Kang is the big bad? With sequels for BP, GotG, CM and Ant-Man as well as Fantastic Four and Blade all part of Phase 4 do we really know yet? Or is Kang more like Loki level and the Thanos level is still tbd?
Agree, after a week and definitely after a month I think you are good. I wish they had the spoiler tag. I will usually type something like SPOILER INCOMING and dropping a few lines down to give people a chance.
Yes, I think Isaac is great. The first episode was a little slow due to world building, the next 2 eps I thought were really good, then last week fell off for me. The problem is going to be there are only 2 episodes left, and my understanding is that this is a limited series, so we have had a gradual (to slow) pace that is going to have to jump to hyper drive over the last 2 episodes. I obviously think they'll carry MK over into the movies, but I think the pacing is off for the series.
From my recollection the last spell was that no one in the world would know who Peter Parker was - Strange even said it would apply to him.
Yeah the video I linked above covers what I was wondering, and it appears the answer as to the implications is TBD
I agree with this. I will probably wait until all the remaining episodes are available. A big part of the problem for me is that I do not care about any of these people. I find myself actively rooting for Ethan Hawk.
The difference is we knew Wanda and her backstory which causes us to care. This show has none of that. All I know about this guy is he worked in the souvenir shop at the museum and he has multiple personality. If he got killed off in episode five it wouldn't matter to anyone. That is if someone else could wear the suit.
I agree with this. They may turn it around a bit, but why do we have 6 episode seasons for brand new people. We had an entire movie or two for almost all of the key avengers before they were the avengers and most of those characters were kind of already known. I didn’t know anything about Moon Knight or Konshu and I was aware of some of the Egyptian gods and history. Give it 8 episodes even if episode 1 is just meeting then characters a bit more or maybe showing Mark and Layla, which might have made Stephen’s intro more interesting. It’s just been OK but I wouldn’t miss it.
I thought the last 10 minutes was pretty amazing. The rest of the episode was dull though.
I had a feeling that would come around but Captain America is well known and even Iron Man. How many “super” characters were in those movies? Not Money Penny types like assistants or army folks, but Steve Rogers type or Red Skull villains.
That’s very fair, but my guess is that they chose to introduce the character(s) the way they did intentionally because they wanted the viewer to identify with Moon Knight, specifically the Stephen identity in this version, by having the viewer feel like they were suddenly being thrown into this whole world of all this crazy stuff going on and trying to figure out what the heck is going on as it plays out while only being given access to bits and pieces of the past.
He sounds alot like Venom to me. That would be a hysterically great connection to put together.
I can definitely understand the wanting the user to be disoriented like Stephen was, but I do think they could have given some Mark history and then disoriented us with Stephen.
I did like it when Konshu was talking through Mark/Stephen. It cracked me up the way he would move his body and speak, like it was being forced out of him.
Briefly, and always in the third person for lack of a better term. I know he wears a suit. I don't really know what he's capable of. He's... bulletproof? Really good at fighting? It's kind of hard to tell if you're not a fan of the comics.
Or you were asleep suring the fight scenes. What he could do has been made very plain.
I think you are misremembering. We always see Steven from his perspective. Think of it like Steven on roof ---> Mark fighting on roof and then goes to new place----> Steven in new place. And the part where he is Mark he doesn't know happened at all so from his perspective he is on the roof and then suddenly finds himself in a new place.
I've been liking Moon Knight's aimlessness a bit because I felt like I came in needing the character's backstory. I haven't minded necessarily that they've needed so much screen time to get that backstory out.
Kind of stupid how they did his back story. We knew nothing about Marc for 4 episodes. They barely even hinted at a backstory. Then episode 5 was pretty much all back story. Now there's one episode left. I dont like how they did that.
