For a 44 minute finale, I think it was a pretty great way to wrap this season up. It’s open-ended with Steven and Marc thinking they’re living normal lives but Jake is screwing everything up. If there was a Season 2, it can explore that dynamic over another six episodes which I would be fine with.
I kinda disagree that they think they are living normal lives. They both understand there is another aspect, which is why they continued being chained to the bed until they figure out this other aspect.
Jake is the Protector alter. Jake is most likely created as an alter to take the beatings. He comes out when Marc feels defeated, trapped, unable to escape...extreme trauma.
The face reaction when he turned around, yup that's Jake. Goddamn, Oscar Isaac's acting is so chef kiss he better win an Emmy for his incredible acting! By the way, great reaction guys. 🔥
If you are talking about the face turn in the car then yes If you are talking about the Mental Assylum scene then you are wrong That was Marc Turn on the subtitles & then you will know
He killed the Avatars, not the gods themselves. He stated that the those Avatars were just judges (not warriors) so they had no idea how to fight, like Harrow and Marc are specifically fighters.
It's worth noting that in the comics, Khonshu's relationship with the other gods is pretty different. He's actually by far the most powerful of them, as he has existed for far longer, and was originally a god of time before he became the Egyptian god of revenge and the moon. The only Egyptian god who could even remotely face him was Ra, and he did so. They battled many times over the millennia, but no matter how close it got, Khonshu always won. That is why Moon Knight is the most powerful of the avatars, at the expense of his sanity.
@@Nekotaku_TV That's how it is in the comics, not the show. In the show, they reversed the roles. In this series, Khonshu is one of the weaker gods. It seems like they're implying that he USED to be extremely powerful, but not so much these days. The other gods keep saying stuff that makes me think that.
I think having an avatar makes you weaker? Khonshu's avatar is stronger and way more capable because he lends him more power than the other gods? Moonknight seems stronger then some of the other avatars.
if you remember earlier in a season when they first introduced the council gods,they said how they didn't have trust in the humans and how they rejected the humans so they basically used the humans just as Avatar just as their mouth and their eyes. So it makes sense why they didn't empower their avatars with the power and why konshu and Ammit always stood out as outsiders amongst the gods
The reason they don’t release the other god is the same reason why you don’t bust all the people out of prisoner to fight a villain you don’t know their loyalties
The latest I heard is that there isn't a final decision on season two but previously, Mohamed Diab said in March that he felt the character would be part of the MCU for the next ten years, and expressed his hope that Moon Knight would eventually get his own feature film.
Harrow didn't kill the Gods. He killed their avatars , just like khonchu was still alive when marc died momentarily. It was explained in earlier episodes that the other gods left earth long time ago after choosing their avatars who would their eyes and ears to observe. Since all avatars were dead those gods had to choose new avatars and there wasn't enough time that's why osiris avatar said the only way is to make more avatars, layla released khonchu and osiris (the god, the avatar) opened up the gates between afterlife and physical worlds so marc / steven's soul can return back (as tawaret exclaimed "oh osiris you soft heart") and once it came did momentarily and was able to heal as marc is tha avatar of khonchu and he had already been released
This finale was pretty well rounded I think, nice action; bit of emotion, and the wrap up of Arthur harrow, then the introduction of Jake lockley, massive props to Oscar Isaac for a world beater performance with this series too!
During the credits sequence You can actually see Jake's Moonknight suit if you pause at the right time. When the suits are changing. Idk if anyone else noticed. Dope reaction, i was also mind blown at the end.
@@wolfrodah honestly I didn't find the exact same pic of him but there is one at a theater or something and he is wearing that Moonknight shirt i can send you a screenshot
Oscar x 3 for an Emmy! No doubt about it. Jake is the one that truly makes Moon Knight menacing and a worthy candidate to form the Midnight Sons (if the adaptation does evening happen). Marc and Steven can kiss and make up all they want.
Midnight Sons is the rumored endgame: Blade was in Eternals, Joe Berenthal's Punisher is coming back, Werewolf by Night and Elsa Bloodstone are both cast for the 2022 Halloween special, and there are rumors they're redoing Ghost Rider (possibly with the guy from Agents of Shield) and possibly shoeing in Black Knight (from Eternals) as well.
honestly when he says to steven "you are the only real super power I ever had" I wept. First real show that actually in a weird way shows the power that comes from loving yourself and not some perfect second person or family member.
They totally trolled us with the 'ending,' until the post-credits scene lol. Would have loved more time in the finale, but for the 40+ minutes they had, really enjoyed it.
The Ammit and Khonsu`s Kaiju Battle was manificient . Khonshu is the God of gaslighting. Switching between Moon Knight and Mr. Knight in the fight scenes was badass. Moon Knight, Mr. Knight, and Layla vs. Arthur Harrow were extraordinary scenes. Layla's superhero suit looked marvelous. Give Oscar Issac's all the Emmy awards. I loved the limo and Khnoshu's tailor suit in easter eggs in the post-credits. This limo comes from the comics, specifically the 2014 Knights of the Moon series by Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey, and Jordie Bellaire. Well, Khonshu is visiting Mr. Knight's tailor! The image of Khonshu in costume frequently appeared in Jeff Lemire and Greg Smallwood's 2016 series Moon Knight, which provided much of the inspiration for this television series. Overall, I enjoyed the Moon Knight TV series. My favorite part of this episode was Layla rescuing the Egyptian girl and she asked Are you an Egyptian superhero? The Layla and Taweret team-up was also amazing. Jake Lockley was giving me hit-man vibes. The shot of Moon Knight flying into the Moon was dope. Hippo!!
We have to take into consideration that Marc and Layla are actually skilled fighters, whereas the other avatars in the Enead were most likely not chosen for their combat capabilities, nor would they have been trained by their respective deity in that regard unless they were "vengeance" seekers like Khonshu. Plus, I think Ammit's power would be stronger than the other gods since it took all (even more than who we saw as the current Enead) of their combined efforts to seal her in the past.
When Jake become the avatar it must be the best R rated fight scene, Marc was on the ground and Jake comes out then knocks Harrowe out! He must have absorbed ALL the violence in their life and that is why JAKE was the one to really make the deal with Konshu. We need an R rated movie.
Protector: You are right that with DID, there is often a protector personality and that's not Steven. Marc created Steven on that day to be the good boy, free of blame, guilt or memory of his Roro's death; also free of any memory of the abuse--which is important! Notice how Marc pushes Steven out before he sees the beating, so Steven's memory of their mother remains free of that. But Marc also leaves before he sees it...which means neither of them gets to see the creation of the protector identity who Marc also probably brought to life that day: Jake. Someone tough and mean who can't be hurt or broken by his mother's emotional or physical abuse. Up to that point, Marc took the beatings, but after that, I'd bet it was Jake, with Marc waking up, as he does, from a black out.
guessing the next time we'll see Moon Knight will be in the Werewolf By Night special coming to Disney+ in October. and more Layla as Scarlet Scarab in the MCU immediately.
Fun fact, Suraj. From IMDB "For the scenes where Steven and Marc interact with each other, rather than have Oscar Isaac try to act against a green screen stand-in or an extra, Marvel hired Isaac's brother, the journalist-actor Michael Benjamin "Bro Dameron" Hernandez, to serve as his double as a way to help Isaac act opposite himself. Isaac said during a 'Moon Knight' press conference that his brother is the closest thing to him there is on earth. This way, Isaac was able to seamlessly differentiate between the characters and was able to feed off of Hernandez's energy, as if he was acting against himself."
Well tbh, as Harrow said the other Avatars aren't warriors and had no combat experience and Harrow attacked them before they had the chance too do anything. I wish he just put then into stone or just cut their ties with their Gods. Death was not needed. This was the best MCU Disney + show by far for me. My ranking so far 1. Moon Knight 2. Hawkeye 3. Falcon and the Winter Soldier 4. WandaVision 5. What if? 6. Loki
Just for those unaware: Jake Lockley isn't Spanish, he is a New York cab driver who is more violent/aggressive than both Marc and Steven. That being said, he does know how to speak Spanish, but he is supposed to have more of a New Yorker accent when talking English. [Same as how Steven talks with a very English accent]
In the comics Jake Lockley has a Bronx accent. In the psych ward scenes when you heard an accent different from both Marc and Steven it is Jake coming out. He’s not Spanish, he’s most likely a polyglot because he’s supposed to be the one hitting the streets gathering intel, so it would make sense that he should speak multiple languages so he can get information easily without a language barrier in the way.
ACTUALLY, Marc's parents are, I believe, Sephardic Jews which means they may have come from a Spanish speaking country--or their parents, Marc's grandparents did. It might also be the secondary language spoken in their community, just as Jews descended from parents/grandparents from Eastern Europe might speak Yiddish. This is probably why the Jake persona is fluent in it. But as Steven saw himself as British, I'm sure Jake also sees himself as from NYC and, thus, when he speaks English, does so with a heavy NYC accent right out of something like "Taxi Driver."
@@xackwerley9184 No reason you should have know about his parents being Sephardic..in fact, I don't know if I'm right about that either. I just checked Wiki and there are actually more Ashkenazi Jews who immigrated to places like Mexico and Brazil than Sephardic...so I might be all wrong on that score. But Sephardic Jews did migrate to North Africa, including to Morocco and Egypt where they spoke Spanish. It'd be very interesting to learn that Marc's family can trace their heritage back to North Africa, maybe even Egypt? Or maybe they will be from Guatemala like Oscar Issac 😉I guess we'll find out come season 2 (at least, I hope they give us more on his background in season 2).
@@moonwalk1031 I would really like to be given more information about Marc’s heritage too as it’s something they don’t cover very much in the comics other than acknowledging he’s Jewish. Let’s hope for season 2.
Don’t forget guys that Konshu was shunned because he refused to give up his presence in our world. The other gods essentially retired once Ancient Egypt fell. So I believe he and his Avatar are more powerful. They haven’t spent time on earth in a long long time.
About the avatars being destroyed by Harrow so easily, isn’t it established in stories usually that gods are only as powerful as the faith people have in them? I think Ammit even mentioned that Khonsu was low on it; it makes sense for Harrow to objectively be the strongest avatar when He’s spent so long assembling a little cult of Ammit worshippers lol. Only Layla and Marc/Steven “believe” in Khonsu
I think they just weren’t trained as fighters or physically as strong as Marc, they have no reason to anyway, plus the gods probably haven’t fought in decades.
@@juanpablorodriguezjuarez8144 yeah that too, but Khonshu was also way weaker than Ammit + her line about him being low on faith, which is why I thought about it . You’d think even a non fighter, would have some sort of divine powers to at least bind evil yknow
The song in the post credit scene as the limo is driving away is Frank Sinatra's My Way Of Life which is a perfect song for Khonsu and Mark/Jake relationship. Laya is the Scarlet Scarab in the show in the books its a completely different character.
I think that was everyone's reaction... When it ended I was like "I don't know how I feel about this... I... I think I hate this" after the end credits scene "LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
From what I take it the Gods that are in the Overvoid and their Avatars aren’t as powerful as if their they were in the same realm like Khonshu/Ammit and their Avatars. The Gods didn’t die, just their Avatars. And then for Ammets sealing, they used the same ritual as when they force them into stone, but they trapped her in flesh. From what I heard Ammet Godly Spirit isn’t DEAD, her ‘Death’ just forces her out of this plane and back to either Duat or to the Overvoid to be punished by the other Gods. 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤯🧠 They really didn’t do a good job with the other gods and avatars but oh well, that Jake Lockley reveal was worth it!! I love that they made Jake either rich (like Steven is in the comics) or he’s a limo driver instead of a cab driver
Interesting detail I caught. So Harrow's Ammit staff transforms into an axe. Also notice that the weapon Alexander the Great was buried with was an axe. Harrow also did mention that the staff was a gift from Ammit to her avatar. So it seems Ammit loves axes lol
I know nothing about Moon Knight...but, I do think the third personality was probably created to cope with his mercenary work, some sort of DID PTSD hybrid (which would make for a pretty effective killer with zero feelings). I don't think he knows the mom, I don't think he keeps close contact with everyone. I think he's truly a lone wolf (who apparently asks tour guides out, probably just for "fun").
@The Normies, 3:18 Marc is the one Wendy birthed into the world. He's the original one, and Steven said last week "you made me up," so I see no problem with you saying he's the made up one or not the real one--Steven felt that way too. The thing is, Marc accepts Steven. Steven filled the void Randall left, and from what the story seems to be pointing to, made Marc fill whole again. Steven never had a heart/soul since he's a creation of Marc's trauma. 3:49 is it though? Marc manifested his childhood hero to be his protector. When danger is near, Steven Grant has no fear--we see him roleplay as his childhood hero with his little brother! I pretended to be whatever hero was popular during my childhood, and it looks like Marc did the same. Steven was a bad ass in his movie, Steven was a little different, sure, but that's probably because his nemesis was his mother and he couldn't (wouldn't) fight her. 4:28 Obviously, you haven't seen the episode yet, so you might have already come to this conclusion, but Steven likely wasn't the only one created that day. Steven was charged with protecting Marc and Marc's innocence, which he could only half do. Steven has no memory of their abusive mother, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's later revealed that that's when Jake came into the picture and took the hits. I also wouldn't be surprised if Jake is another alter based on a different action hero, maybe something their mother liked. Wendy's abusive nature forged an actual killer and a tank, Jake Lockley...maybe. We'll have to wait and see where the story goes with in the future, but with Steven being designed around a movie character, I wouldn't be surprised if Jake is based around a Spanish speaking assassin. 8:47 To be fair, Khonshu came to them with NO proof. And the person he accused was the avatar he abused, so I'm not mad at them for disregarding Khonshu's claim--he was the boy that cried wolf. 11:23 Steven filled the void Randall left Marc. Steven is his brother now. In the eyes of the god, Steven is nothing, but a part of Marc that must return from where it came. Steven's death made Marc whole again. Marc placing his own heart in Steven's hand was beautiful; he was willing to share his life with Steven as an equal. 14:00 Arthur gave them the chance to step aside. He said that they were judges, implying that they were not warriors, thus no match for him, and we saw how that played out, not well. Osiris is the god of the afterlife. Ammit is called the devourer of the dead, lol. Osiris had the last laugh though didn't he? As god of the afterlife, he allowed Marc to return, thus defeating Ammit in the end. 16:59 Rick James? LOL! 17:29 O'koye, Shuri, Nakia or Ayo? Which one? 17:35 Kendo doesn't have sticks. Those are escrima sticks, a weapon used in a martial arts from the Philippines. 18:27 Best moment in the reaction right here. Look at Runa's face, man. The joy! 19:26 Jake uses whatever he's got. In the alps he used what Steven had on hand, which was nothing. In Cairo he had what Steven had on hand, which was again nothing. Now that it is Marc who was in trouble, he used what Marc had which was Khonshu's ceremonial robes and dude wrecked $#!+. The fact that Layla asked Marc if he was himself should tell you that he did that as he is. There was no transformation and whoever did that didn't hesitate, the hesitation to kill Arthur is when Layla ceased being gobsmacked to ask who was standing before her. Jake might be the Dexter Morgan of the three. I loved your reaction, but Runa's excitement steals the show =D Edit: Needed to correct a name. My bad m(_ _)m
4:52 That could be a answer to that scene where Mark asks Steven what did he do and steven answers "it wasn´t me" sure was the birdo being tired of the dumdum one
I used to think Pat was the “only-action” guy who only liked spectacle over substance when it came to movies/TV shows but is it just me or has he become more deeper in his film critique? His point earlier in the vid about how he thought Steven was the original and Marc was the alter was well put-together.
Moon Knight isn't done. He's a member of the Midnight Sons. Along with Blade, The Black Knight, Ghost Rider, Doctor Strange, etc. You've got 4 members set to go. Werewolf by Night and a few more comes later this year. Morbius was also in there but that depends on Sony.
they really knows how to make a reveal worth and special, that after credits wouldn't be worked if we already saw Jake in action, but they only show us what he can do and the result of it 💀 its coldest reveal
I'm glad they decided to make it a season finale, rather than a series finale. Oscar Isaa'cs performance is just too great, to have it only be for one.
In that final scene in the mental asylum/ purgatory place, I’m pretty sure we see both Steven and Jake talking to Harrow. The other personality there talked with a thicker New York-esque accent, something we haven’t seen Marc speak in at all. This could also tie in to Jake Lockley’s comic book origin of him being a cab driver. I liked how they revealed him as being the secret third personality, that neither Marc nor Steven know about
After rethinking i dont think it was rushed, i think it was perfect just the way it was. We have to remember that this was mainly to focus on Steven and Marc's relationship and their trauma together. And that's what happened we went through all of it. Hopefully if theres another season they will introduce more of Jake and how he became an ulter. 🤌🏾 Probably the only issue i had was the end credit but then again Jack may not have killed him? 🤔 if they did damn i really enjoyed Ethan Hawk in this show. I loved the combination fight Marc and Steven working 👏🏾 was SO good! Lastly, I NEED MORE OF Taweret and Layla. GIVE THEM THIER OWN SERIES PLEASE 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Regarding the "creating an alter to be stronger than you" or "making one to deal with the mother beating him", I've seen people mention thinking that Jake was the one that was taking the beating, so it COULD be that an alter was made to deal with the mom hitting him, being strong, and maybe being the one that was setting off mom, it was just Jake, not Stephen. And for Layla, it's that she's a retooling of 2 comic characters, moon knight's love interest in the comic and the Scarlet Scarab (an egyptian super hero from the old days that once fought the avengers)
"The name 'Moon Knight' is slightly cooler now, but it's still kinda dumb." What would you rather he be called? White Knight? Captain Moon? Mummy Man? NIGHT KNIGHT???
Just imagine 5 people who never fought---or even held a weapon---in their lives. Now pitch them against a trained killer with a couple decades of experience. Even if they are all armed the same, who do you think would win and how long would it take? This is exactly what happened in the pyramid.
The 3rd personality was always there. Remember in episode one when Steven woke up somewhere in Europe the first time Khonshu ever spoke he said: Khonsu: "Go back to sleep, worm. You're not supposed to be here... surrender the body to Marc". Steven: "What body?" Khonshu: "Oh no, The idiot is in control". Why did Khonshu phrase his last line that way given that he already mentioned one of the personas by name "Marc"? It's because when Khonshu said "worm" he was addressing the 3rd personality that he thought was in control, and when he realized it's neither the 3rd personality not Marc he then said "the idiot" and he was addressing Steven.
I like this theory a lot, but why would he be calling Jake “worm”? Based off the ending it seems like he’s on better terms with Jake than he is with Marc lol. I got the impression he likes Jake the most cuz he’s the most ruthless
@@xreaper2451 Except he didn't just say idiot, he said "Oh no, The idiot is in control". It's like he was certain that Jake was in control but then Steven's accent hit him.
@@zaynrivers7433 I'm guessing that back then he only had an arrangement with Marc. He made a pact with Marc at the tomb as we all saw. Probably after Khonshu and Marc parted ways he made another arrangement with Jake.
@@xreaper2451 Imagine talking to someone and saying "Hey, how's it going? Hey, what have you been up to?" You don't typically acknowledge/greet someone twice in the same meeting. Makes more sense that he thought he was speaking to someone other than Marc or Steven.
I loved all of the cultural details they inserted in the last couple of episodes.I was wondering if Rana noticed that the battle took place on top of a Foul and Falafal shop, the ultimate Egyptian icon? That was so clever. Also great to see other parts of the world in a Marvel production, especially parts traditionally villainized by American media. For that, and an Egyptian Layla, I think we have the Egyptian director of this production, Mohamed Diab, to thank. The most wonderful thing was that the Egyptians were actually speaking real, Egyptian Arabic, rather than shrieking gobbledygook, as Arabic speakers usually do in American movies (I"m looking at you, The Mummy). However, Egypt also has an enormous army, and they probably should have shown up during that final battle, lol. Unfortunately, as per usual, this production was actually filmed in Jordan and not actually Cairo, since getting foreign filming permissions for Egypt is nearly impossible.
Oke oke, before seeing this chapter i really hope Mark could keep some of the brittish expressions of Steven. I need a scene with both moonknight and spidey argeuing about real sheesh in brittish
those action sequences are awesome, the fact that they are really doing the stunts on their own especially with costume is insane, if only you have seen Oscar Isaacs training, he really put his heart into it and learned different martial arts!, and to see his Jake Lockley was insane!, as if there are three persons acting more like triplet brothers... i hope he can get an emmy award for this and i would love to see if there are season 2 or a movie here!
Jake finally introduced, Khonshu still playin games, Marc & Steven have become 1, Scarlet Scarab is going to be Layla :O that was some fire shit I did not expect, and Rana in is Red. Solid finale and reaction xD
It all makes sense now! Marc was the original kid that his mom hated and was not kind to him so he escaped that reality by being Steven. Jake Lokely is the ulter who got the beating, and that is why he has no empathy
For a 44 minute finale, I think it was a pretty great way to wrap this season up. It’s open-ended with Steven and Marc thinking they’re living normal lives but Jake is screwing everything up. If there was a Season 2, it can explore that dynamic over another six episodes which I would be fine with.
This series had everything. Horror, DiD, kaiju, action and emotional drama.
This is the first time someone copied my comment and used it on a different video, I feel so honored 😭
I kinda disagree that they think they are living normal lives. They both understand there is another aspect, which is why they continued being chained to the bed until they figure out this other aspect.
Still wish it was an 1hr full(not including credits)
Every episode was around 36 minutes. Not close to 44 at all.
Jake is the Protector alter.
Jake is most likely created as an alter to take the beatings.
He comes out when Marc feels defeated, trapped, unable to escape...extreme trauma.

The Psych ward is just pretty much his conscience, his internal thoughts.
Harrow is so dangerous because he truly believes in all of this. He's wholeheartedly *willing* to die if Ammit calls for it

The Ammit and Khonsu`s Kaiju Battle was manificient . Khonshu is the God of gaslighting. Switching between Moon Knight and Mr. Knight in the fight scenes was badass. Moon Knight, Mr. Knight, and Layla vs. Arthur Harrow were extraordinary scenes. Layla's superhero suit looked marvelous. Give Oscar Issac's all the Emmy awards. I loved the limo and Khnoshu's tailor suit in easter eggs in the post-credits. This limo comes from the comics, specifically the 2014 Knights of the Moon series by Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey, and Jordie Bellaire. Well, Khonshu is visiting Mr. Knight's tailor! The image of Khonshu in costume frequently appeared in Jeff Lemire and Greg Smallwood's 2016 series Moon Knight, which provided much of the inspiration for this television series. Overall, I enjoyed the Moon Knight TV series. My favorite part of this episode was Layla rescuing the Egyptian girl and she asked Are you an Egyptian superhero? The Layla and Taweret team-up was also amazing. Jake Lockley was giving me hit-man vibes. The shot of Moon Knight flying into the Moon was dope. Hippo!!
We have to take into consideration that Marc and Layla are actually skilled fighters, whereas the other avatars in the Enead were most likely not chosen for their combat capabilities, nor would they have been trained by their respective deity in that regard unless they were "vengeance" seekers like Khonshu. Plus, I think Ammit's power would be stronger than the other gods since it took all (even more than who we saw as the current Enead) of their combined efforts to seal her in the past.
I agree with Mickey, I'm good with this, it was like reading a comic. I'd love a Season 2 to see more of Jake and Layla's stories.
laylas costume is my favorite in the whole mcu. my second favorite is falcons. its the metal wings.
18:24 First thing I thought when I saw this is, "Oh, this is gonna make Rana SO happy!" 😁🏆
When Jake become the avatar it must be the best R rated fight scene, Marc was on the ground and Jake comes out then knocks Harrowe out! He must have absorbed ALL the violence in their life and that is why JAKE was the one to really make the deal with Konshu. We need an R rated movie.
Marc made the deal with Khonshu. He has the memory of doing so.
We got to see Marc make the deal, he got stopped from offing himself by Khonshu.
Protector: You are right that with DID, there is often a protector personality and that's not Steven. Marc created Steven on that day to be the good boy, free of blame, guilt or memory of his Roro's death; also free of any memory of the abuse--which is important! Notice how Marc pushes Steven out before he sees the beating, so Steven's memory of their mother remains free of that. But Marc also leaves before he sees it...which means neither of them gets to see the creation of the protector identity who Marc also probably brought to life that day: Jake. Someone tough and mean who can't be hurt or broken by his mother's emotional or physical abuse. Up to that point, Marc took the beatings, but after that, I'd bet it was Jake, with Marc waking up, as he does, from a black out.
oh my God Jake was shown in the office, they have been showing Jake in multiple episodes talking to Harrow with a New York Accent
guessing the next time we'll see Moon Knight will be in the Werewolf By Night special coming to Disney+ in October.
and more Layla as Scarlet Scarab in the MCU immediately.
@@ibaxterrwoof No
Dude are you freakin serious 😭👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My guess is if they really want Moon Knight in the MCU it’s going to be in Blade
Fun fact, Suraj. From IMDB "For the scenes where Steven and Marc interact with each other, rather than have Oscar Isaac try to act against a green screen stand-in or an extra, Marvel hired Isaac's brother, the journalist-actor Michael Benjamin "Bro Dameron" Hernandez, to serve as his double as a way to help Isaac act opposite himself. Isaac said during a 'Moon Knight' press conference that his brother is the closest thing to him there is on earth. This way, Isaac was able to seamlessly differentiate between the characters and was able to feed off of Hernandez's energy, as if he was acting against himself."
Well tbh, as Harrow said the other Avatars aren't warriors and had no combat experience and Harrow attacked them before they had the chance too do anything. I wish he just put then into stone or just cut their ties with their Gods. Death was not needed. This was the best MCU Disney + show by far for me.
My ranking so far
1. Moon Knight
2. Hawkeye
3. Falcon and the Winter Soldier
4. WandaVision
5. What if?
6. Loki
Runa's "wait what?" Needs to be a meme
It's her standard reaction for everything and she's the one taking copious notes all the time.
Trueeeee
@@ReallyDeadpool E is silent in true...
HIPPO! \😄/
that was priceless, lmfao
The Thiccopotmus has an avatar!
Just for those unaware: Jake Lockley isn't Spanish, he is a New York cab driver who is more violent/aggressive than both Marc and Steven. That being said, he does know how to speak Spanish, but he is supposed to have more of a New Yorker accent when talking English. [Same as how Steven talks with a very English accent]
In the comics Jake Lockley has a Bronx accent. In the psych ward scenes when you heard an accent different from both Marc and Steven it is Jake coming out. He’s not Spanish, he’s most likely a polyglot because he’s supposed to be the one hitting the streets gathering intel, so it would make sense that he should speak multiple languages so he can get information easily without a language barrier in the way.
ACTUALLY, Marc's parents are, I believe, Sephardic Jews which means they may have come from a Spanish speaking country--or their parents, Marc's grandparents did. It might also be the secondary language spoken in their community, just as Jews descended from parents/grandparents from Eastern Europe might speak Yiddish. This is probably why the Jake persona is fluent in it. But as Steven saw himself as British, I'm sure Jake also sees himself as from NYC and, thus, when he speaks English, does so with a heavy NYC accent right out of something like "Taxi Driver."
@@moonwalk1031 You’re probably right. I didn’t know about his parents being Sephardic Jews. Thank you for the insight.
@@xackwerley9184 No reason you should have know about his parents being Sephardic..in fact, I don't know if I'm right about that either. I just checked Wiki and there are actually more Ashkenazi Jews who immigrated to places like Mexico and Brazil than Sephardic...so I might be all wrong on that score. But Sephardic Jews did migrate to North Africa, including to Morocco and Egypt where they spoke Spanish. It'd be very interesting to learn that Marc's family can trace their heritage back to North Africa, maybe even Egypt? Or maybe they will be from Guatemala like Oscar Issac 😉I guess we'll find out come season 2 (at least, I hope they give us more on his background in season 2).
@@moonwalk1031 I would really like to be given more information about Marc’s heritage too as it’s something they don’t cover very much in the comics other than acknowledging he’s Jewish. Let’s hope for season 2.
Spidey I've never had falafel either but omg Rana's shocked face. . Priceless
Steven said he always thinks about *killing* his boss but wouldn't actually do it so what if it's Steven who created Jake to handle this sorta stuff.
Don’t forget guys that Konshu was shunned because he refused to give up his presence in our world. The other gods essentially retired once Ancient Egypt fell. So I believe he and his Avatar are more powerful. They haven’t spent time on earth in a long long time.
Did anyone get flashbacks when Konshu was like..Rise! And Live again... to Gargoyles. WE LIVE AGAIN!!!
Whenever my mom sees this, she might make that connection too 😂 she loved that cartoon
About the avatars being destroyed by Harrow so easily, isn’t it established in stories usually that gods are only as powerful as the faith people have in them? I think Ammit even mentioned that Khonsu was low on it; it makes sense for Harrow to objectively be the strongest avatar when He’s spent so long assembling a little cult of Ammit worshippers lol. Only Layla and Marc/Steven “believe” in Khonsu
Fighting against spellcheck I know everything is probably spelled wrong lmao
I think they just weren’t trained as fighters or physically as strong as Marc, they have no reason to anyway, plus the gods probably haven’t fought in decades.
@@juanpablorodriguezjuarez8144 yeah that too, but Khonshu was also way weaker than Ammit + her line about him being low on faith, which is why I thought about it . You’d think even a non fighter, would have some sort of divine powers to at least bind evil yknow
fun fact one of the Arabic graffiti that is shown during the fight says "Khonshu is alive"
The song in the post credit scene as the limo is driving away is Frank Sinatra's My Way Of Life which is a perfect song for Khonsu and Mark/Jake relationship.
Laya is the Scarlet Scarab in the show in the books its a completely different character.
They already explained the psych ward, it's a representation of the place you go before afterlife.
I also think it's also supposed to be the "inner world"
From the comics, the Egyptian Superhero was named Scarlet Scarab.
Disney’s gonna throw every cent they have at Oscar Isaac to keep this fire burning, and I can’t wait!
When Marc was being encased in stone, I could have sworn he was about to say, “you complete me."
I think that was everyone's reaction... When it ended I was like "I don't know how I feel about this... I... I think I hate this" after the end credits scene "LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
From what I take it the Gods that are in the Overvoid and their Avatars aren’t as powerful as if their they were in the same realm like Khonshu/Ammit and their Avatars. The Gods didn’t die, just their Avatars.
And then for Ammets sealing, they used the same ritual as when they force them into stone, but they trapped her in flesh. From what I heard Ammet Godly Spirit isn’t DEAD, her ‘Death’ just forces her out of this plane and back to either Duat or to the Overvoid to be punished by the other Gods. 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤯🧠
They really didn’t do a good job with the other gods and avatars but oh well, that Jake Lockley reveal was worth it!! I love that they made Jake either rich (like Steven is in the comics) or he’s a limo driver instead of a cab driver
Ammmit's hair is EVERYTHING!!! also Braids with charms on them, not Dreads
23:49 end credit
Interesting detail I caught. So Harrow's Ammit staff transforms into an axe. Also notice that the weapon Alexander the Great was buried with was an axe. Harrow also did mention that the staff was a gift from Ammit to her avatar.
So it seems Ammit loves axes lol
I know nothing about Moon Knight...but, I do think the third personality was probably created to cope with his mercenary work, some sort of DID PTSD hybrid (which would make for a pretty effective killer with zero feelings).
I don't think he knows the mom, I don't think he keeps close contact with everyone. I think he's truly a lone wolf (who apparently asks tour guides out, probably just for "fun").
@The Normies,
3:18 Marc is the one Wendy birthed into the world. He's the original one, and Steven said last week "you made me up," so I see no problem with you saying he's the made up one or not the real one--Steven felt that way too. The thing is, Marc accepts Steven. Steven filled the void Randall left, and from what the story seems to be pointing to, made Marc fill whole again. Steven never had a heart/soul since he's a creation of Marc's trauma.
3:49 is it though? Marc manifested his childhood hero to be his protector. When danger is near, Steven Grant has no fear--we see him roleplay as his childhood hero with his little brother! I pretended to be whatever hero was popular during my childhood, and it looks like Marc did the same. Steven was a bad ass in his movie, Steven was a little different, sure, but that's probably because his nemesis was his mother and he couldn't (wouldn't) fight her.
4:28 Obviously, you haven't seen the episode yet, so you might have already come to this conclusion, but Steven likely wasn't the only one created that day. Steven was charged with protecting Marc and Marc's innocence, which he could only half do. Steven has no memory of their abusive mother, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's later revealed that that's when Jake came into the picture and took the hits. I also wouldn't be surprised if Jake is another alter based on a different action hero, maybe something their mother liked. Wendy's abusive nature forged an actual killer and a tank, Jake Lockley...maybe. We'll have to wait and see where the story goes with in the future, but with Steven being designed around a movie character, I wouldn't be surprised if Jake is based around a Spanish speaking assassin.
8:47 To be fair, Khonshu came to them with NO proof. And the person he accused was the avatar he abused, so I'm not mad at them for disregarding Khonshu's claim--he was the boy that cried wolf.
11:23 Steven filled the void Randall left Marc. Steven is his brother now. In the eyes of the god, Steven is nothing, but a part of Marc that must return from where it came. Steven's death made Marc whole again. Marc placing his own heart in Steven's hand was beautiful; he was willing to share his life with Steven as an equal.
14:00 Arthur gave them the chance to step aside. He said that they were judges, implying that they were not warriors, thus no match for him, and we saw how that played out, not well. Osiris is the god of the afterlife. Ammit is called the devourer of the dead, lol. Osiris had the last laugh though didn't he? As god of the afterlife, he allowed Marc to return, thus defeating Ammit in the end.
16:59 Rick James? LOL!
17:29 O'koye, Shuri, Nakia or Ayo? Which one?
17:35 Kendo doesn't have sticks. Those are escrima sticks, a weapon used in a martial arts from the Philippines.
18:27 Best moment in the reaction right here. Look at Runa's face, man. The joy!
19:26 Jake uses whatever he's got. In the alps he used what Steven had on hand, which was nothing. In Cairo he had what Steven had on hand, which was again nothing. Now that it is Marc who was in trouble, he used what Marc had which was Khonshu's ceremonial robes and dude wrecked $#!+. The fact that Layla asked Marc if he was himself should tell you that he did that as he is. There was no transformation and whoever did that didn't hesitate, the hesitation to kill Arthur is when Layla ceased being gobsmacked to ask who was standing before her. Jake might be the Dexter Morgan of the three.
I loved your reaction, but Runa's excitement steals the show =D
Edit: Needed to correct a name. My bad m(_ _)m
❤❤❤
LOL.. at (17:25) "Wonder Woman ?" 😂 I also thought that beforr. Previously you said that she looks like Falcon.
4:52 That could be a answer to that scene where Mark asks Steven what did he do and steven answers "it wasn´t me" sure was the birdo being tired of the dumdum one
The Field of Reeds is just one of the afterlifes. Hippo mentions how lovely Wakanda's Ancentral Plane is.
thiccpo and spidey walking into the bar. i can picture the jhony bravo like meme
I used to think Pat was the “only-action” guy who only liked spectacle over substance when it came to movies/TV shows but is it just me or has he become more deeper in his film critique? His point earlier in the vid about how he thought Steven was the original and Marc was the alter was well put-together.
i love how jake lockley is like a mafioso muscle man. he's like the marvel version of arthur shelby
Also, that moment when Teweret was talking through the dead guy reminded me of Lucifer. They did that a couple times there.
Rana speaking her native tounge.....HOTTTTTTTTT
Moon Knight isn't done. He's a member of the Midnight Sons. Along with Blade, The Black Knight, Ghost Rider, Doctor Strange, etc. You've got 4 members set to go. Werewolf by Night and a few more comes later this year. Morbius was also in there but that depends on Sony.
Regular people in the MCU see purple light from the Pyramids.
"For God's sake, what now?!"
The third property will be the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series! Mark my words its gonna be huge for Disney Plus
Random but YES!!!!! I’m excited for that
The third is Jake Lockley. He never really had a definite costume he had a creepy mask but it was changed to him just rolling up the Mr. Knight mask.
they really knows how to make a reveal worth and special, that after credits wouldn't be worked if we already saw Jake in action, but they only show us what he can do and the result of it 💀 its coldest reveal
I'm glad they decided to make it a season finale, rather than a series finale. Oscar Isaa'cs performance is just too great, to have it only be for one.
In that final scene in the mental asylum/ purgatory place, I’m pretty sure we see both Steven and Jake talking to Harrow. The other personality there talked with a thicker New York-esque accent, something we haven’t seen Marc speak in at all. This could also tie in to Jake Lockley’s comic book origin of him being a cab driver.
I liked how they revealed him as being the secret third personality, that neither Marc nor Steven know about
15:11 May Calamawy deserves just as much praise as Oscar Isaac for how effortlessly she switched between acting as Taweret and Layla.
I love that everyone is yelling confused and Rana is there just "huh"
Bro her we go finale time moon knight for life
I love how this 6 episode mind adventure went and only took the end credit scene for Jake the 3rd the great to kill Harrow and Ammit lol.
After rethinking i dont think it was rushed, i think it was perfect just the way it was. We have to remember that this was mainly to focus on Steven and Marc's relationship and their trauma together. And that's what happened we went through all of it. Hopefully if theres another season they will introduce more of Jake and how he became an ulter. 🤌🏾 Probably the only issue i had was the end credit but then again Jack may not have killed him? 🤔 if they did damn i really enjoyed Ethan Hawk in this show. I loved the combination fight Marc and Steven working 👏🏾 was SO good! Lastly, I NEED MORE OF Taweret and Layla. GIVE THEM THIER OWN SERIES PLEASE 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Regarding the "creating an alter to be stronger than you" or "making one to deal with the mother beating him", I've seen people mention thinking that Jake was the one that was taking the beating, so it COULD be that an alter was made to deal with the mom hitting him, being strong, and maybe being the one that was setting off mom, it was just Jake, not Stephen.
And for Layla, it's that she's a retooling of 2 comic characters, moon knight's love interest in the comic and the Scarlet Scarab (an egyptian super hero from the old days that once fought the avengers)
"The name 'Moon Knight' is slightly cooler now, but it's still kinda dumb."
What would you rather he be called? White Knight? Captain Moon? Mummy Man? NIGHT KNIGHT???
Layla with super suit has same energy when we first saw Falcon.
Suraj: *sees anything cool happen in a show*
Suraj: "This is anime!"
Just imagine 5 people who never fought---or even held a weapon---in their lives. Now pitch them against a trained killer with a couple decades of experience. Even if they are all armed the same, who do you think would win and how long would it take? This is exactly what happened in the pyramid.
not sure if anyone has mentioned it, Ammit's voice actress is Saba Mubarak. a Jordanian actress like Rana! 😁
Season Finale Moon Knight and gonna watch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness today... what a Crazy Week for Marvel Fans
Chris and Marketa have one of the worst timed vacations
I love Moon Knight's costume changing action sequence.
Holy Hell...they DID it they wrapped it Up in 1 Ep!!!!!!! EPIC
The 3rd personality was always there. Remember in episode one when Steven woke up somewhere in Europe the first time Khonshu ever spoke he said:
Khonsu: "Go back to sleep, worm. You're not supposed to be here... surrender the body to Marc".
Steven: "What body?"
Khonshu: "Oh no, The idiot is in control".
Why did Khonshu phrase his last line that way given that he already mentioned one of the personas by name "Marc"? It's because when Khonshu said "worm" he was addressing the 3rd personality that he thought was in control, and when he realized it's neither the 3rd personality not Marc he then said "the idiot" and he was addressing Steven.
Nice theory but he could literally just be insulting Steven in multiple ways
I like this theory a lot, but why would he be calling Jake “worm”? Based off the ending it seems like he’s on better terms with Jake than he is with Marc lol. I got the impression he likes Jake the most cuz he’s the most ruthless
@@xreaper2451 Except he didn't just say idiot, he said "Oh no, The idiot is in control". It's like he was certain that Jake was in control but then Steven's accent hit him.
@@zaynrivers7433 I'm guessing that back then he only had an arrangement with Marc. He made a pact with Marc at the tomb as we all saw. Probably after Khonshu and Marc parted ways he made another arrangement with Jake.
@@xreaper2451
Imagine talking to someone and saying "Hey, how's it going? Hey, what have you been up to?" You don't typically acknowledge/greet someone twice in the same meeting. Makes more sense that he thought he was speaking to someone other than Marc or Steven.
I loved all of the cultural details they inserted in the last couple of episodes.I was wondering if Rana noticed that the battle took place on top of a Foul and Falafal shop, the ultimate Egyptian icon? That was so clever. Also great to see other parts of the world in a Marvel production, especially parts traditionally villainized by American media. For that, and an Egyptian Layla, I think we have the Egyptian director of this production, Mohamed Diab, to thank. The most wonderful thing was that the Egyptians were actually speaking real, Egyptian Arabic, rather than shrieking gobbledygook, as Arabic speakers usually do in American movies (I"m looking at you, The Mummy). However, Egypt also has an enormous army, and they probably should have shown up during that final battle, lol. Unfortunately, as per usual, this production was actually filmed in Jordan and not actually Cairo, since getting foreign filming permissions for Egypt is nearly impossible.
Oke oke, before seeing this chapter i really hope Mark could keep some of the brittish expressions of Steven. I need a scene with both moonknight and spidey argeuing about real sheesh in brittish
I love how only one of the cops was worthy. 😆
those action sequences are awesome, the fact that they are really doing the stunts on their own especially with costume is insane, if only you have seen Oscar Isaacs training, he really put his heart into it and learned different martial arts!, and to see his Jake Lockley was insane!, as if there are three persons acting more like triplet brothers... i hope he can get an emmy award for this and i would love to see if there are season 2 or a movie here!
Jake finally introduced, Khonshu still playin games, Marc & Steven have become 1, Scarlet Scarab is going to be Layla :O that was some fire shit I did not expect, and Rana in is Red. Solid finale and reaction xD
It all makes sense now! Marc was the original kid that his mom hated and was not kind to him so he escaped that reality by being Steven. Jake Lokely is the ulter who got the beating, and that is why he has no empathy
This episode was epic!! Micky had the same reaction as me, "NOT THE FOOD!" LOL
Inb4 this year's Halloween costumes.
They didn't actually kill all the gods, they just killed their avatars. The gods are still alive, somewhere.
I think it's safe to say that this is the best marvel series on disney+ so far
16:32 Knew the "swings" was about to come
I think I’ve fallen in love with Oscar Isaac, Marc, Steven, Moon Knight, and Mr. Knight lol. He’s just so charming!
