Marvel Studios - Moon Knight series

[abake]

So I watched this, and it was kinda fun, but... where are the other MCU characters supposed to be while all this is going down?
What's the time frame for this?
Oh, and why was everybody pissed off with the finale?

PS: I liked this bit from the episode.

Spoiler:

She'd make for a pretty cool figure, but it'll never happen.

This was a fun addition to be sure. If HT were to make a figure, I'm guessing those glorious curls would require rooted hair. So a slightly longer and darker haired version of HT's AoU Black Widow - but this time the frizzy mess would be on purpose lol...

Like comics, I always go with “they were busy doing other things”.

I believe it was stated that, so far, this is the latest story in the MCU chronologically (at least until MoM).

As for the finale… I liked it! A lot! But it was a bit rushed, and ended with a lot of loose threads concerning major characters like Layla

Spoiler:

and Jake.

I really liked the show from start to finish, but it does leave me hungry for more.

Cool, thanks.

As far at the actual show, yeah, I liked it. Oscar Isaac was his usual brilliant self, although the brit accent seemed a bit off to me. Ethan Hawke was great as well, and since those two basically carried the show, I feel we were in good hands most of the time.
Layla was meh, as far as I'm concerned, but the dynamics between Layla, Marc and Steven were funny in a way. The fact that she liked both completely different personalities makes one think she was actually more interested in the body!
Also, they went full-on WW with her in the finale, huh?

I agree with an earlier assessment that I WISH WW had been handled as well as Layla’s upgrade.

I’m quite familiar with the comics, and I was familiar with the comic counterpart, but I wasn’t actually sure the mad lads would go through with it, but they did and I’m quite happy.

As a Brit I can confirm that OI's Steven Grant accent was accurate enough, some of us do sound like that haha.

Really? I thought she was far cheesier than anything Gadot did in BvS, WW or ZSJL. Oh well, to each their own

Mostly referring to WW’s Golden Armor, which was just… there. For Layla, it felt far more significant.

I skimmed over s3. I just cannot stand Evan Rachel Wood, Tessa Thompson and Thandie Newton.

It really should have been the one season.

Same.

I really doubt it'll ever happen, but it's a good looking costume regardless.

Me, I have another Egyptian lady I'd love to get in figure form

Spoiler:

I've never played Overwatch but I really, uh, "like" Pharah (and Mercy)... Samus and Pharah would look phenomenal on a shelf as 1/6th figures. Alas...

I can't say I'm familiar with her. Personally, I was always partial to Anck Su Namun from The Mummy lol.

But wasn’t the point that he got the accent from that cheesy Tomb Buster tv show with the overdone accent?

Ah, I remember her well... Pharah's from that Overwatch videogame. It was all the rage for a couple of years, especially with the Tumblr/Twitter/Deviantart-spheres (and R34 too...), but then it slowly died. I think. I never played it, I just really liked some designs.

Overall the strongest MCU show for me.

But I feel the last episode went too formulaic considering how good the previous ones were.

With the exception of the surprise ending and after credits scene…those were good.

OI was still fantastic.

The addition of the female superhero was very forced to me. First time I felt that for any show or film really…..

And the GCI for that character was really horrible.

Ill watch another season, especially if the make Moon a serious multiple personalitlity character , with like 10 personalilties …

This show did deliver on alot of fronts, but I also felt like Moon Knight was actually a secondary or tertiary character….

I guess its supposed to be an origin story, but being it really wasnt, it kinda ended up odd…

IMO...

Spoiler:

...audiences could've used more time to warm up to Moonie after seeing him for the first time. Shortly after he find out that he exists, we get Mr. K and then no Moonie at all. By the time he comes back then we get another hero. Sheesh.

 

[Bleah]

I’d love to know what Ammit considers an evil deed though cause that was a lot of people killed

Touching yourself.

The practical suit looks so good, not sure why they had to CGI it most of the time. Like when Marc comes back out of the pool it's clearly a full CG character and it looks awful, like why?!

Shame the HT figure looks nothing like it too.

It's a one shot of the suit transformation, which has to be all CGI. I get your point though.
