Title: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on March 30, 2022, 05:07:52 PM Episode One
Fantastic. Loved everything but the last minute or so. Oscar Isaac was great and the villain is done a lot better than I had feared. Easily the best first episode of Marvel's tv stuff. Except for maybe Loki... I can't remember that one off hand ;D Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jeff on March 30, 2022, 08:13:09 PM Great news. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet but it's good to hear they're off to a good start.
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on March 31, 2022, 12:04:45 PM I really dug it!
And my one contrary friend, who is always contrary as if that makes him look smarter, texted about 20 min "This is really terrible." Whatever dude, you're an ass! :D Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Gay Titan on March 31, 2022, 01:06:52 PM I really dug it! And my one contrary friend, who is always contrary as if that makes him look smarter, texted about 20 min "This is really terrible." Whatever dude, you're an ass! :D We all have that one friend like that. :D :D Last night was a bit hectic with errands and the kids, so I am watching it tonight as well. Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Wringer on March 31, 2022, 04:16:25 PM Really good start but I thought we were going to get a 2ep drop...guess not
as a Mega-fan I'm going to be supper picky but while not a huge fan of weak willed Steven Grant (prefer him as the successful businessman) I did like the Frenchie name drop via missed messages (DuChamp) and I do like, what I am now calling the MoonMummy costume. Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on March 31, 2022, 06:01:17 PM as a Mega-fan I'm going to be supper picky but while not a huge fan of weak willed Steven Grant (prefer him as the successful businessman) I understand completely :) But Right now I am so happy with the first episode I am okay with the change. :D :D Oh yeah, Someone, one of the Youtube guys, Ohhh, good catch I thought, regardless if they use him or not Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jeff on April 01, 2022, 02:50:02 AM I watched it this morning and also loved it! Great start to the series. I had my doubts after seeing the trailer so my expectations were in check. So thankful I had nothing to worry about. One of the best starts for a Marvel show - in line with Loki.
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jeff on April 01, 2022, 02:51:01 AM And it’s good to see Wringer back!
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on April 03, 2022, 02:44:20 PM Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on April 03, 2022, 02:48:43 PM Well, it only took a live action Moon Knight
:D ;) Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Wringer on April 06, 2022, 01:42:14 AM I never really left, just not chiming in.
But MK certainly helps. Perry...I was thinking the same thing with Jake. If it were my show, I would have used Jake as the personality that actually knows he's one of many and fills in Marc/Steve about what's what. Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on April 06, 2022, 02:31:23 AM I guess I can see where they didn't want Grant to be yet another billionaire superhero, but there's a part of me that does wish that this museum gift store personality was Jake, since that seems much more low brow of a character (to me)
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on April 06, 2022, 05:56:09 PM Oh, not sure how I feel about this weeks episode two.
While watching the first half of this episode, I was still madly in love with this show. Then, well, then the show went a little south for me when ;D And hey, then that four or five minutes that I wasn't 100% happy with was over pretty quick and it all came back around to being good. I do still enjoy the show, just that ... that suit stuff man. :-\ And oh yeah, I wonder why Marlene's name is Layla in this show? Did Marlene not test well? ;D Or is it that Layla in Hebrew means Night? I wonder ;) Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on April 07, 2022, 02:23:25 AM Not Marlene at all.
A different character entirely. I had to look her up. I'm still totally onboard with this yet. A bit of some goofiness in the middle of the ep, but honestly, this series is so good so far, ...don't go so 'Marvel' on this to add the comedy and slapstick, everybody is a sarcastic comedian. Sometimes dark and painful is dark and painful, but still enthralling! Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on April 07, 2022, 09:52:14 AM Not Marlene at all. Yes, a brand new character for the show, but they are using her as a replacement for the Marlene character. Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Gay Titan on April 07, 2022, 03:47:40 PM The second episode was much better than the first. I love the suit mix-up.
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on April 07, 2022, 10:24:44 PM ... I love the suit mix-up. WHAT?!?! Where the hell is my slap emoji? ;) ;D Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on April 22, 2022, 10:54:15 PM I am still here. I am liking the series still.
I know what I would do differently, or write differently to really make it GREAT, in my estimation, but I guess I'm fine with it. It's not my favorite of the other shows. And it's a show that is just really, REALLY, 'super-ok'. Oscar Isaacs is really doing great differentiating himself and his rolls, and that's just fine. OH! PERRY JEFF I just remembered somethign from the video I just want full suit crazy action and brutality.... Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jeff on April 22, 2022, 10:58:47 PM I'm caught up to episode 4 and I also like this so far. I do like the way Oscar plays the different personalities. Lots of fun.
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on April 22, 2022, 11:07:45 PM Can we just pretend to imagine...instead of a Defenders mini movie...just...Daredevil v Punisher v Moon Knight as a Netflix show?
DD crosses paths with the Punisher again, but this time Moon Knight is involved. All 3 are hunting the same targets, but for different reasons. Matt is prosecuting someone, Punisher has tracked down the criminal ring to the antagonist, but Moon Knight needs the man alive....for some kind of vengeance, in some form, that he doesn't understand from Khonshu. No team up action in this! Just blood! And fists! and pain, and hurt, hurt people all over! Moon knight with pink and red greaves up to his elbows in blood. An immaculate creepily white cape! Punisher says this magic is nuts! DD has to be the level headed one and not punch someone into obliviion! OH, I can dream. :D Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Gay Titan on April 27, 2022, 12:49:01 PM Can we just pretend to imagine...instead of a Defenders mini movie...just...Daredevil v Punisher v Moon Knight as a Netflix show?

Maybe a cameo by Danny Rand or the death of Jessica Jones. Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jimmy T on April 30, 2022, 07:15:55 PM Death of Jessica Jones had me rolling with laughter!! :D :D :D
Ep 5 was a fantastic MK episode. Just to watch Oscar Isaacs carry the entire ep on his talent and skill in acting. Just wow, and that ending, so good! Almost completely makes up for the hero Moon Knight and all his super powers being held down by men with sharp sticks in episode 3. ;D Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jeff on May 01, 2022, 08:11:27 PM I with you guys. Episode 5 was great! Can’t believe next episode is the last!
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Perry on May 04, 2022, 03:33:54 PM Moon Knight's ep6 thoughts...
Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Jeff on May 04, 2022, 09:40:55 PM While my reaction to episode 6 is not as.....passionate as Perry's, I'd have to agree that they did not stick the landing on this series. The after credits scene is promising though for a season 2.

The after credits scene is promising though for a season 2. LOL. I am somewhere in the middle. I enjoyed the action sequences but got lost on who the super-powered Layla was supposed to be. And you're right... MK can't fly. Title: Re: Moon Knight Post by: Wringer on July 01, 2022, 11:49:32 PM YUP...MK don't fly
I enjoyed the show for what it was but while they tried to stay away from the stark-like character, then ended up with the Invincible Moon Knight. suit out of nowhere, high level super strength and flight. there was no reason to change Marlene to Layla and keep her history the same...certainly didn't add anything. Hopefully they power him down with his break from Khonoshu with maybe only the Jake personality with powers and love the idea if MK v DD v Punisher. |
