I like how we are seeing inside Marc’s psyche (or the manipulation of it). It’s hard to find characters from previous episodes, including the living statue, who were not shown here. I’m seriously wondering if Oscar acted opposite his brother to get the sight lines right. Hippo goddess with childlike voice causing both Marc and Steven to scream? Priceless. I wonder if she is there in relationship to Khonshu, or Hathor
@@Rootedin_Truth I saw it, and I buy it. When I saw Marc and Steven embrace, I got the collaboration vibe. I can’t wait to see them open the second sarcophagus.
You know they’re different people because they scream different, Marc with his fists up and Steven backing up grabbing wildly for anything to protect himself with lmao
I recently re-watched the “Alexander” anime. The one from the 90s that used to come on Cartoon Network, so when he said Macedonia, Alexander popped into my mind.
Steven: This is Macedonian! Me: (screams) Are they really going there?? Steven: This is the long lost tomb of Alexander the Great! Me: (screams again) They did! They did go there! And then I cried.
I need context….Moon Knight is a new character for me (Love him!!). What’s the deal with the tomb being Alexander The Great, apart from it being Alex The Great. Anything else special about it?
@@lynnlovesrobalot The location of Alexanders burial site is not currently known in the real world though its speculated to be somewhere in Alexandria, Egypt.
@@lynnlovesrobalot Basically one of the classic legendary lost historical sites of all time. Finding the tomb would be a little bit like finding the Ark of the Covenant minus the religious associations. Plus Alexander himself is a ridiculously popular historical figure, so it being him personally would be a big deal too. PLUS I'd imagine that'd drop an absolute nuke into the middle of political relations between Greece and the Republic of Macedonia. So a big deal on many many levels.
19:24 Adorable he fact that Steven and Marc were at odds for Layla, going so far as to Marc making Steven hit himself but at the end, they see each other, not through a mirror or reflection, but in person and what they do? They hug each other, being relief and happy to see a familiar face. But kinda sad the fact that this might be the only time these two can physically hug each other.
It just dawned on me that Stephen probably didn't slip and fall but Marc threw him down after punching him, LOL! Also, the fact that they even scream in fear differently. Man, this is top notch!
The hospital seems right out of the comic. He has to come terms with all his other self and it will hit bingo he'll come back. Everything in the hospital is happening in his head. And also if you notice during the credits the Moon is getting Fuller.
I'm not sure it's all in his head. Taweret, the hippo goddess, is associated the rejuvenation of the dead. She's also connected to the River Nile, which is likely where the water Marc/Steven is floating in comes from.
@@RichardStrong86 that's what Im thinking. She prepares the dead for the afterlife, heals them in a sense. And apparently she's also associated with resurrection. My take is that it is "in his head", but more down the lines of this being inside of his psyché/soul. He'll probably need to get his sh%t together before Taweret is convinced to let him go. Presuming Taweret isn't on Ammit's side...
My partner has DID, although she's very high functioning. Disassociation doesn't manifest the same for everyone but more often the personalities are generally very distinct people with fully developed egos, their own wants and needs. While one of your personalities might take an action that the collective you needs to do, the other personalities really don't have to like it. Think of it like coworkers in an office in someone's head. They're not always all at the counter, they don't always get along but they have a job to do.
Layla is egyptian actually in reality , her name is Mai , so she’s egyptian playing an egyptian, we do the clicking sound to scare someone as a prank in Egypt till today
I just love how Marc just pass by that bumping sarcophagus like "I'm already dealing with Steven, I don't want to know who is that obscur personality I don't know about who is capable of killing people like it's nothing" x) Steven us just too sweet for this world, I love him !
I loved the Fight Club, Indiana Jones, The Mummy, Shutter Island, and One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest influences in this episode. Seeing Taweret at the end was fantastic. The visuals in the Psychiatric Ward were marvelous. The horror elements in this episode were also outstanding. The second sarcophagus is another hint at Jake Lockley. Arthur Harrow shooting Marc Spector was cool-blooded. Marc Spector and Steven Grant's interaction in the Psychiatric Ward was a fantastic scene. Layla vs Heka Priest was creepy as hell.
the whole setting really reminded me of the nursing house of the gods in the kane chronicles. basically a place where gods nearly dead or forgotten (or just senile) go to die/fade. ra's body was there in the book.
From TV Tropes: "Layla is a combination of Marc's comic love interest/wife Marlene Alraune and a genderswapped version of Mehmed Faoul, the second Scarlet Scarab from the comics."
I fully expected them to just cut and the episode to end after Marc was shot. So seeing everything after that had me happy, but absolutely goddamn confused. Hopefully they free Jake in the next episode.
I was the same way. "Good episode, but come on, shooting the protagonist is a cheap 'cliffhanger' when we know there are two more episodes coming." After that it just got better and better.
My theory is that the version of Jake here is going to be very different. In the comics, Steven is the suave billionaire, Marc is the brutal guy and Jake is the regular cabbie guy. Here, Marc is the sleek adventurer, Steven is the regular guy with booksmarts, and I'm guessing this Jake is the brutality. As in, he's the one who's been brutally tearing people apart and neither Steven or Marc knows he's around.
Hey guys.... You had to know SOMETHING was up when they cinematically started the episode with an upside down shot. This of course usually means everything we thought we knew is going to get turned upside down.
History nerd here, can confirm! The second Steven mentioned the Macedonian writing I shouted "Alexander?!" One of Alexander's top generals, Ptolemy (who would create the Ptolemaic Pharonic dynasty that gave us Cleopatra VII), stole Alexander's body after his death and moved it to Memphis in Egypt. Probably as a way to help legitimize his claims of Succession. That was such a hype moment that had nothing to do with Marvel lol
For the relationship part of a person with DID, I guess it depends on each alter the person has. Each of the alters value their privacy. Also, please understand that not all alters have the same age, gender, sexual orientation as the primary alter/host. There are alters that are called “Littles” because they are “children” alters, so you can’t expect them to view the marriage of the primary alter the same way.
How does that work though? Do they literally shrink and turn into a child, or do they just believe they are a child in an adults body (assuming the main personality is an adult)
@@itsmaddogofficial No, they just believe they are a child. Though they might hunch themselves to appear smaller, and their mannerisms will change to be more child-like, there's no actual kind of transformation like a person into a werewolf or something along those lines.
@@itsmaddogofficial their mental image of themselves is of a child of "x" years, they will have access to an adult brain, and so will be able to speak complex words and phrases, but their mind will work like a child of that age would, their interests, hobbies... all of a child. These alters are particularly vulnerable so many systems have alters to take care of them.
My first thought when he said that's Greek Macedonian was it was one of the Ptolemys, either Ptolemy 1st (Alexander's General who was given Egypt after Alexander died) or his descendants. But no, they went straight to the man himself. Loved it! Makes sense in this world with how powerful he was and his love for Egypt that he was an avatar.
Taweret actually can be seen as a counterpart to Ammit, which also is part hippopotamus. So the one goddess wants Marc/Steven dead, the other one brings them back to life. The whole psychiatry can be seen as sort a purgatory. And Marc/Steven passed the test by not opening the third sarcophagus. Therefore the friendly "hi". But that is just a theory. ^^
Hectors recent interview with Nic Cage for nerdist was great. Keep up the good work with the channels guys. When this is at 10,000,000 don’t forget us early guys
That was Taweret at the end there, a god. Hathor, the friendly god, can manifest as Taweret. By the way the disc above the head indicates Isis or Hathor.
I really love the little details by the ending of this episode, like the fact that Steven/Marc was cuffed by the ankle to the wheelchair just like he was to the bed in the first episodes. Ps. Now I'm gonna have to rewatch the whole series to see if every we've seen so far could match with the idea of all happening inside his head
One of the best things about how much time a series has given us with each personality (and a lot of it is down to the amazing performance) is how even without speaking you can recognise which is in front with just the way they carry themselves and even their resting facial expressions.
ABSOLUTE MAD LADS DOING THE LEMIRE ALLUSION. Probably one of the biggest risks the MCU has ever taken and I greatly applaud them for it. I’ve been absolutely loving this series so far, I really hope these last two episodes hit the landing
@@ivanrico3589 no. In the comics, the hospital is all in his head and, in this dellusion, Ammit was posing as Dr Emmet (a person Mark has had to deal with in the past). This time, it seems like Taweret, goddess of childbirth, fertility, cleanser of the dead for the afterlife, is somehow trying to heal Marc's mind/soul/psyché before delivering him to his final destination. She's also associated with resurrection. My personal guess is that, much alike the comics, he's not simply allowed to leave. Maybe Taweret has good intentions unlike Ammit, and I think she's actually an aspect of Hathor, so maybe Marc is getting help from an aspect of Khonshu's old friend. Ironically, the egyptian deities often have a couple alters themselves.
Every day of the marvel show is double treat - first I watch it by myself in the morning, then I wait to watch it later with You guys. Dont have many people around me who are into comic book stuff or even marvel that much, so Im glad I can at least listen to some people knowing every single marvel thing up to this point, enjoying the show and discussing it with each other. Been following You since I think Age Of Ultron reactions on Superhero News ( I think this was also the first wave of the trend when the reaction channels started popping up? Or at least when I noticed it, AoU creepy trailer was a blast and is still one of the best trailers to this day, even if it advertises a bit different movie than what we got xD ). Anyway, thanks for letting people like me hang around and at least feel like I can discuss the stuff I geek about with others, mostly because I share most of Your opinions on these stuff and can feel like I participate in a way, by just doing nods of approval to the screen xD
That scene of Layla against that creature was so terrifying, I moved my phone farther away from me...! Hahahaha and my hands on my face Really great episode! I love Layla!
Love the mind bending of the episode. I was expecting the stray jacket scene from the comics but the chain on his ankle was a better call back to previous episodes.
I loved the first 3 and i really adored this one, i read the whole Lemire run last week after episode 3 bc i had a hunch they might pull from it and never in my life did i expect it to pay off as much as it did this week
I'm with Adam, this was my favorite one. I feel there's something about those waters... They made a point to show that Steven avoided the water when coming in. Water often is linked to rebirth, as Taueret is.
That hug between Marc and Steven got me almost crying! So genuine and emotional ! What an actor Oscar Isaac is ! Such a privilege to see him play such a complex character in the MCU, he is perfect as Moonknight
Oscar Isaac mentioned on one of the late night talk shows that he has a brother that did some stand-in work. I wouldn't be surprised if his brother was "Marc" from behind in the scene where Steven is revealed in the sarcophagus.
When he said macedonian, I did not think of Alexander the Great immediately. The first historical figure that came to mind was Ptolemy I, one of Alexander's macedonian general, who was in charge of Egypt and became its pharaoh. It made more sense to me, but it figures that Alexander is best known among the public. He was close second.
I've loved every episode of this show! I've watched each of them multiple times! It feels fresh and not like an MCU property - I also really love Egyptian Mythology!
Have you watched Legion? The TV show about X-Men character David Haller. The last part of this episode has so much vibe of Legion Season 1. The whole season 1 of Legion has that psychedelic atmosphere. So if you haven't seen the show, I think you'll like it
LOVED this episode, even more than the previous ones ! 👍 This feels like The Mummy, these adventure movies in general : a great blend of action, comedy, romance, horror and mystery in exotic landscapes.
the moment the screen ratio changed, I went straight to "omg, it was all in his head??" and then "oh~ we are in his head." idk why my mind was so easily accepting of a simple misdirection. maybe it was because of me watching 'Wandavision.' anyways, it was great episode.
This episode was LIT! So many surprises and winks to reality. I was so excited to watch this with ya’ll, my online friends who actually give a shit and spaz out for this stuff like I do! For a second there when Layla walked into the vault with Alex the Grape and Stephen showed her the relic… I thought she was going to be possessed of sorts, especially after Harrow yelled at her to WAKE UPPPPP.
From what I know about the disorder, they're always very much different identities in one person. They talk about the other identities by their names and in third person, as well as how they take over at different times. The show is actually doing a good job with that but, obviously, displaying it with mirrors and such.
I imagine that the end of the episode is a manifestation of Amit's judgement. Tailored to suit Marc's situation, offering him an opportunity to return with borrowed power from one of the other gods or Amit herself and thwart Harrow's perversion of her balancing act.
For all the complaining about eps 1-3, this episode wouldn't hit like it does if they gave us this flavor from the gate. JUST LET THE STORYTELLERS TELL THE DAMN STORY!!!!
Remember that episode of Batman the Animated Series where Bruce was trying to understand the DID of the Ventriloquist and Scarface; that there were two different persons? Based on the voice recordings? I think you in your something
"I wonder if history nerds were watching him say 'that's Macedonian'--" well I did have to pause the episode and get up and walk a couple laps around the room to get my shit together, so...........yes
Yes, Hector xD I studied history of arts, when Mark said 'its macedonian', I almost said alongside Marc 'Alexander the Great'? But I guess that one was a bit obvious, you dont need to be nerd of anything to get hint of who may be in the sarcophagus. I liked playing last Uncharted game because of that, amount of detail was great, almost always recognised things from exact era and culture they were from, before Drake said it on screen. They put a good effort there into portraying ancient art quite accurately.
Everyone is making the reference to Legion and I understand it, but for me, it was more akin to Mr. Robot. The harsh cut to a different 'reality' without explicitly explaining it to your audiences and let them eventually figure it out on the ride to the finale.
I studied Alexander The Great at school here in Italy (we call him Alessandro Magno and of course we study him since he was a great character in European history) and when I heard the word Macedonian I immediately thought of him and I screamed because I didn't expected hahahahahahaha
You guys - Hector, Adam and Agustin - are here praising the show (which I really enjoy) but the real gem for me is your reaction, how you truly have fun, your jokes which make me crack up. Thank you so very much guys for doubling the fun for me
My read on the scene where Layla confronts Marc about her father's death is that Marc's "partner" was not a person but another personality. When we see the shaking sarcophagus at the end of the episode that they do not open, I think that is the third personality.
Who said Marvel doesn’t have any Oscars😄. We got 2 here. Plus, that last segment at the loco hospital felt a little Legion to me. I’m confident he’ll fit in the MCU now.
God, May Calamawy is too fucking good for this world. But at the same time, I'm glad she is in this world, because nobody else could bring the same life to Layla.

You know they’re different people because they scream different, Marc with his fists up and Steven backing up grabbing wildly for anything to protect himself with lmao
I thought the same thing, I was wondering why no one brought it up
History nerd here 🙋🏻♀️ and yes, 100% got chills when he said “this is Macedonian”. Immediately thought Alexander. Was a great moment
I went straight to Alexander too. And then I thought no that's dumb, it's probably just Ptolemy. Glad I was wrong.
Also (kinda) history nerd. Can confirm that I too immediately thought Alexander the Great. Thank you classic civ
me too. I'm glad I'm not alone!😁

They're "clicking" because their tongues have been removed! :D Funny Egyptian mummy facts! TM
The hospital seems right out of the comic. He has to come terms with all his other self and it will hit bingo he'll come back. Everything in the hospital is happening in his head. And also if you notice during the credits the Moon is getting Fuller.
I'm not sure it's all in his head. Taweret, the hippo goddess, is associated the rejuvenation of the dead. She's also connected to the River Nile, which is likely where the water Marc/Steven is floating in comes from.

so, Oscar Isaac said that for scenes that he was playing with himself, they used his brother as a stand in. May have helped the eyelines be so good.

Love the Lost reference Hector. God loves you as he loved Jacob

Straight-up 'Legion' FX series vibes at the end. Amazing episode!
That hug between Marc and Steven got me almost crying! So genuine and emotional ! What an actor Oscar Isaac is ! Such a privilege to see him play such a complex character in the MCU, he is perfect as Moonknight
Oscar Isaac mentioned on one of the late night talk shows that he has a brother that did some stand-in work. I wouldn't be surprised if his brother was "Marc" from behind in the scene where Steven is revealed in the sarcophagus.
When he said macedonian, I did not think of Alexander the Great immediately. The first historical figure that came to mind was Ptolemy I, one of Alexander's macedonian general, who was in charge of Egypt and became its pharaoh. It made more sense to me, but it figures that Alexander is best known among the public. He was close second.
2:46
I was looking away and shot right back to my screen thinking Arnold was actually there 🤣🤣
You guys are my favorite reactors. Kepe going guys! Love from the Philippines
Jake had to be in the shaking coffin and wasn't opened by Steven/Marc. Plus, the way it ended was so cruel. Lol
I felt like it was a zombie mummy. A “zummie”, respectively, or even a “mombie” 😅 blessings guys
I've loved every episode of this show! I've watched each of them multiple times! It feels fresh and not like an MCU property - I also really love Egyptian Mythology!
10/10 for the “LANGUAGE!” Censor alone 🤣🤣🤣
Okay, we need to call out how amazing that Beetlejuice impression was by Adam!!
Have you watched Legion? The TV show about X-Men character David Haller. The last part of this episode has so much vibe of Legion Season 1. The whole season 1 of Legion has that psychedelic atmosphere. So if you haven't seen the show, I think you'll like it
LOVED this episode, even more than the previous ones ! 👍
This feels like The Mummy, these adventure movies in general : a great blend of action, comedy, romance, horror and mystery in exotic landscapes.
the moment the screen ratio changed, I went straight to "omg, it was all in his head??" and then "oh~ we are in his head." idk why my mind was so easily accepting of a simple misdirection. maybe it was because of me watching 'Wandavision.' anyways, it was great episode.
Everyone is referencing One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, but the last half of this episode made me think of Legion, on FX
This episode was LIT! So many surprises and winks to reality. I was so excited to watch this with ya’ll, my online friends who actually give a shit and spaz out for this stuff like I do! For a second there when Layla walked into the vault with Alex the Grape and Stephen showed her the relic… I thought she was going to be possessed of sorts, especially after Harrow yelled at her to WAKE UPPPPP.
I've been waiting for this since, like, 2015/2016. I am SO EXCITED.
The sandals were CROCS (Ammit)!
Agustin's reaction to that clicking noise was priceless.
This epilogue of the episode reminds me SO MUCH of Marvel's LEGION pilot!
He gets powered by the size of the Moon. Full moon full power. When it comes to terms with all his other self will become a really good hero.
OMG, what an episode!!!
I have no words.
I want Episode 5 right now!
I need answers for what I saw at the end!
From what I know about the disorder, they're always very much different identities in one person. They talk about the other identities by their names and in third person, as well as how they take over at different times. The show is actually doing a good job with that but, obviously, displaying it with mirrors and such.
Hi, literal historian here, and...yep. As soon as he said, "That's Macedonian," I started screaming. I might have a problem. lol
I imagine that the end of the episode is a manifestation of Amit's judgement. Tailored to suit Marc's situation, offering him an opportunity to return with borrowed power from one of the other gods or Amit herself and thwart Harrow's perversion of her balancing act.
“I thought those were cupcakes at first” 😂😂😂 Agustin pls
I haven't heard a good Beetlejuice impression in a while and damn...Adam really knocked it out of the park.
For all the complaining about eps 1-3, this episode wouldn't hit like it does if they gave us this flavor from the gate. JUST LET THE STORYTELLERS TELL THE DAMN STORY!!!!
This is my favorite episode. SO GOOD. Felt like watching the Mummy.
Remember that episode of Batman the Animated Series where Bruce was trying to understand the DID of the Ventriloquist and Scarface; that there were two different persons? Based on the voice recordings? I think you in your something
Great analysis guys. As always.
"I wonder if history nerds were watching him say 'that's Macedonian'--"
well I did have to pause the episode and get up and walk a couple laps around the room to get my shit together, so...........yes
Yes, Hector xD I studied history of arts, when Mark said 'its macedonian', I almost said alongside Marc 'Alexander the Great'? But I guess that one was a bit obvious, you dont need to be nerd of anything to get hint of who may be in the sarcophagus. I liked playing last Uncharted game because of that, amount of detail was great, almost always recognised things from exact era and culture they were from, before Drake said it on screen. They put a good effort there into portraying ancient art quite accurately.
Yeeeessss!!! This is what makes a good show a good show... Keeps you wanting more. *rubs hands together* C'moooon next Wednesday! 😁
Adam! You know what I’m gonna say Adam! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 🎉🎉
And that end scene was just marvelous
Is it about my RBF again 😂
@@HeroesReforged nay nay. You enjoyed this episode 🙌🏼 it was a welcomed surprise😁
Everyone is making the reference to Legion and I understand it, but for me, it was more akin to Mr. Robot.
The harsh cut to a different 'reality' without explicitly explaining it to your audiences and let them eventually figure it out on the ride to the finale.
Not seen WTF moments like these since Legion. Missed it
Thanks!
Adam is right I think. The real reality is what we've been seeing before the hospital. Also ooof the horror scenes.
I studied Alexander The Great at school here in Italy (we call him Alessandro Magno and of course we study him since he was a great character in European history) and when I heard the word Macedonian I immediately thought of him and I screamed because I didn't expected hahahahahahaha
Quick reaction ..I am here for it ! :) I really like the Moon Knight. it is new, it is different...i love it. Also love your reactions guys !
This episode was by far my favorite. I enjoyed the first 3 a ton but this was like mind blowing.
You guys - Hector, Adam and Agustin - are here praising the show (which I really enjoy) but the real gem for me is your reaction, how you truly have fun, your jokes which make me crack up. Thank you so very much guys for doubling the fun for me
My read on the scene where Layla confronts Marc about her father's death is that Marc's "partner" was not a person but another personality. When we see the shaking sarcophagus at the end of the episode that they do not open, I think that is the third personality.
Who said Marvel doesn’t have any Oscars😄. We got 2 here. Plus, that last segment at the loco hospital felt a little Legion to me. I’m confident he’ll fit in the MCU now.
Get the boys to 100k!
God, May Calamawy is too fucking good for this world. But at the same time, I'm glad she is in this world, because nobody else could bring the same life to Layla.
