…an NYC underbelly “mini” universe. Hawkeye kind of revealed that seedy New York world, Daredevil is back, Moon Knight is coming, and even Spidey signaled a more local approach at the end of NWH. I’d imagine Bernthal’s Punisher will get the redux treatment here in the next 18 months too (probably in the form of a Moon Knight or She Hulk cameo), and we know Blade is coming.

It’s such a feat that they can now do these ground level stories at the same time they’re doing international stories (Falcon and Winter Soldier) and galactic stories (Eternals/Guardians). They scale up and down but somehow still achieve a synergy across all of these shows and movies.. It’s something to behold even if not all of the art is always great.

A lot has to happen I admit, but there’s a realistic scenario where we’re seeing Daredevil, Moon Knight, Punisher, Blade, and maybe Spider-Man altogether in a street-based New York setting. How unbelievable is that?

I have very few gripes (Isaac's accent mainly) but I love how they're introducing the multiple personalities and whoever is voicing Khonshu is good. It feels a bit venom-like, but the way he's talking to Marc/Steven is very comic accurate to me.

On the longer series, the villain is shrouded until the last 2-3 episodes. EHawke is the first thing you see, bright as day, and the other personas and hero appear dead last.

Now we don't have to wonder anymore. Not only did he butcher the pronunciation and tones but he also even said the words out of order. Yikes. I've pretty much seen enough of any Disney+ show at this point.

Hope they continue to lean into the identity crisis stuff, it's a really intriguing angle that most superhero characters don't have. And Isaac's obviously a really good actor.

Obviously has some of the usual Marvel show shortcomings (occasional cheap looking CGI, awkward edits during action, etc.), but there's a lot of promise that this can become of the best to date.

When Marc "awakes" and is stabbing the guy he looks into the blade and Stephen says that he didn't do it.

So if not Marc or Stephen then who?

In response to Reply # 35


          

When the woman at the museum asks Stephen if they're still on for Friday at the "best steak house in town" and Stephen's confused, the woman wasn't surprised at all at Stephen's British accent when he engages in conversation.

Marc has an American accent and, while he could have faked a British one temporarily, we now know Marc is only pushing Layla away (divorce papers, refusing to take her calls) to keep her from being Khonshu's next avatar. He still seems to love her and probably wouldn't cheat.

Which means it probably wasn't Marc who asked the woman at the museum out. It had to be another identity that ALSO has a British accent.

I'm not sure if personality number three is supposed to be Jake, who in the comics doesn't fuck about.

Man, it was beautiful watching the skyline scenes, this show is great and to be honest, deserves more than a six-episode arch IMHO. Tea the CGI could use some work and the action sequences could be cut better like Longo was saying, but I still think this could have a run like Daredevil.

I wonder if part of the problem is having big names and trying to secure these folks for long periods. Or it's just Feige's and Disney's way of doing things to keep our beaks wet for what's next.

Undoubtedly a way to keep his scheduling freedom and secure a much bigger bag down the road. Also probably a way for Marvel to save money short term (which, side note, drives me completely crazy, because they've been making absolutely absurd profits, so they can afford for these TV shows to pay for more physical sets, prep time for action, effects artists... anyway lol).

But there's zero chance if Moon Knight is a buzzy hit that they won't bring Isaac back. They have to. Marvel's bringing back everyone. They brought back fucking Thomas Haden Church from Spider-Man 3 and the Andrew Garfield villains, lol. If they can put someone in a movie that the audience can recognize and cheer when they appear? They'll do it.

27. "Question for the finale of Episode 3 (spoiler):"
In response to Reply # 0
Thu Apr-14-22 01:26 PM by Frank Longo

  

          

... if Khonshu remembers every night sky, why didn't he just look at the iPad and tell Marc to tell Layla how to move it into place? Also, why didn't Khonshu just tell the other gods, "yo, Arthur has the scarab"? Instead he went into some vague-ass rant that made him look deranged, lol. Khonshu is such a messy drama queen, I swear.

(I get that they did all this just to have a big finale for the episode and for the narrative-driven reason of getting Khonshu separate from Marc/Steven... I was just watching thinking, "Is this *really* the easiest way to figure this out? To change the night sky for the entire world?" lol)

i thought they wanted to keep arthur from finding it. why go out of your way to find it when he will obviously end up finding it thanks to you.

They need to stop Arthur. They're trying to find Ammit because that's where Arthur is heading

In response to Reply # 36


  

          

when they went to the temple arthur was already where the scarab took him. then after the temple arthur followed them. i guess they could had edited it so we watched things out of order but it didnt seem to make sense. it seemed to me that where the scarab took arthur was a fail.

this is probably taken care of in todays episode so i will watch later. i could very well be confusing or missing something too.

Like, at this point, just call Professor Xavier to sort dude’s brain out because where tf are we even at in the story now?

The ending was scary like Legion’s psych ward where we didn’t know if Aubrey Plaza was the Shadow King or some other kind of psychic leech.

Legion is STILL my favorite Marvel related TV series. (the Netflix/Marvel Jessica Jones and Daredevil are high on the list too) but Legion wins out for its out-of-the-box presentation/story telling. They weren't afraid to some creative chances and it paid off imo.

Cool fights and purple lasers, but ending back in the mental hospital kinda left us at square one.

Total disconnection from the MCU was mostly cool but also doesn’t lead us into anything else, big-picture wise.

It would’ve been nice to see Jake get busy with the powers one time, but maybe that’s a season 2 thing. Maybe Blade can set up S2, if it gets renewed.

Glad Konshu got the last laugh with Jake, but I would've like to have seen an episode with Jake as the avatar.

overall pretty good series.

the asylum shit was phenomenal. really blew the story open and made it much more layered/intriguing.

i agree that the finale was kinda a letdown.

they shoulda at least let us see homies 3rd personality take everybody out.

it was too pivotal a moment not to show how things got turned around in such a dire situation.

i just loved Oscars performance so much in this. The Marc/Steven relationship was my favorite thing about this show by far, and thats really due to Isaac's skills.

Too much of the penultimate episode and finale looked like video game cut scene CGI, imo. I realize these TV shows will have some budgetary restrictions... but you're also fucking Disney. You have plenty of money. Ramp up the effects budget by a few million and give these artists a little more time.

Still some really dumb plot stuff, as with all of these shows, where common sense is dismissed for narrative convenience. Like, the show needed Layla to follow Harrow for the finale, so they just... had her toss a scarf on her face? In those wide shots, we saw he was traveling with a pack of like nine people. Nobody said, "Hey, who's that?" at any point? Word? lmao

I also think the way they kept delaying the Jake reveal for the post credits was ridiculous. Multiple times this year, they had Marc and Steven say to each other after a massively violent outburst, "that wasn't me who did that!" "well, it wasn't me!"... and then they just moved on without examining it further whatsoever, lmao. Like, again, I get that these shows are trying to save big moments for endings and reveals and what have you... but goddamn, man, people still need to behave like people, lol.

That said, it's still one of the better Marvel shows, specifically because the Marc/Steven dynamic worked like gangbusters and Oscar's performance absolutely carried the day. Even when some of the situations got crazy and the CGI got silly, Isaac was able to ground his performance and convey genuine emotion. His acting in the finale was among the best performances in any Marvel thing to date.

I also liked that this wasn't directly tied to pre-existing characters or moments-- it felt like its own thing and even managed to feel tonally distinct from the other Marvel movies/shows for the most part. I'd love to see Marvel continue to take storytelling/character/tone risks and push away from the formula wherever they can. They're Marvel. People will watch whatever they do, so they can afford to take some stylistic swings imo.

Marvel better get off their ass and pay Isaac. I'd love to see a Moon Knight movie instead of a TV show, with a proper budget, but I realize that may be asking too much.

In response to Reply # 48


  

          

i feel like with each episode i liked it less and less. the writing seemed pretty bad. it felt like it was written for kids but a lot of the themes were too mature for that.

i think i ended up annoyed by all the characters lol definitely at the bottom of the disney marvel shows for me.

i typically enjoy most marvel stuff so im surprised i couldnt find something to latch onto for this one. oh well, on to the next.
