Great reaction! And the fact that we’re thrown in the middle of it and not know anything was def intentional, I feel like it’s supposed to reflect Steven’s reality.
Steven, or rather ‘Marc’ suffers from Disassociation Identity Disorder, or DID. They did a good job of portraying it so far, as it’s not unusual for the multiple personalities, or “Alters” to not remember what the others did, as memories do not transfer between personalities. That’s why some people with DID are misdiagnosed as sleep walkers or schizophrenics. People can have anywhere from 2 to dozens of personalities per person. The personalities are each born from traumatic circumstances, as a way to cope with the situation they find themselves in. Some can have alters that are childlike, formed when they were children and frozen in terms of mental age. Some people have older alters, fantasy alters (ghosts from attempted suicide, animal personalities from pretending to be animals to cope from trauma, etc) some people even have fictional characters as alters! The brain is incredible in the ways it will adapt and reshape itself to maintain its own sanity and protect you!
@@SpartanandPudgey it’s important to note that these “ alters” are considered real people who all have real lives, memories, opinions, nationalities and different accents even. They live in a headspace that the brain constructs when they aren’t acting as host to the body. In my perspective of this show I kind of think that while most of the Moon Knight lore have “ Marc” as the host, I think in showing Steven’s perspective first kind of leaned towards the idea that they probably changed who’s host for the show, especially since we know from this first episode that he’s out so much that the others have created a whole physical life for him to keep him out of the whole mercenary, possessed by a God stuff- and just probably them in general.
@Dylan Cole I’m thinking Marc is still the host. But they are starting out with Steven because he’s not aware of the other personas, while Marc is. So we get to experience Steven’s confusion with him, which seems like a very deliberate creative choice
@@rileyribble6733 like I said, I think it’s possible that Steven took over as host shortly after he split off. Since he’s out the most, enough so that he can have a scheduled job, an apartment in his name ( assuming it is, anyway), and a pet, to me, that all points go evidence that Marc mostly comes out to do Konshu’s bidding and leaves the normal life stuff to Steven- like maybe he had a life before that but the whole God possession made it difficult to do so and that’s why Steven exists. I’m not saying that Marc wasn’t the original host, but depending on the situation some alters can shift roles if it’s needed. Steven doesn’t remember or isn’t aware of the others, so Marc probably thought it was easier to let him host and go on thinking he’s a sleepwalker to keep Steven in the dark.
I love that the hell hound wasn't even trying to wait around for Marc's moon knight suit to fo around him. it knew that if it didn't finish him b4 he fully transforms then it's got no chance! then Marc literally drags its Ass back into the bathroom like he was trying to give his dog a bath lol.
In answer to some of your questions... Yes, Egyptian Gods are involved. Ethan Hawke follows Ammit while the god that imbues Steven/Marc/? as the Moon Knight is Khonshu. He is the voice that keeps calling the Steven identity an idiot. And in that last fight scene, what Moon Knight killed was a Jackal. Jackal's were believed to be 'death canines' who escorted souls to the afterlife.
Thanks again for another great reaction. You guys have quickly become my favorite reactors on youtube. I love the interaction you have with each other and with the chat on your premieres.
@@SpartanandPudgey Yup. Here's the interesting part to me. Other members include Wanda & Vision, US Agent, War Machine (Rhodie) and Kate Bishop. If you have been following the MCU mini series rollouts, we are slowly getting the members being introduced. Armor Wars will add a little more War Machine story. Another member is Mockingbird who is Hawkeye's wife. Her symbol is on the back of a watch from the Avengers movie Age of Ultron.
Hrm, people are being a bit too spoilery, imo... Oscar Isaacs normal accent is American, what you hear in the mirrors. It's the British accent that he's affecting.
Nah mate you've got ir all wrong, Moonknight is a supernatural character, he does tend to fight crime sometimes but he is 85% supernatural so you'll see him fight mostly creatures, monsters and ghosts
if you both like daredevil and moonknight you may like arrow, Hes a batman like character with a bow n arrow with martial arts (like batman) that kills it is pretty long n i think it dose drop off btu i know yall do pulls but a random arrow option people may like. Arrow has a big fan base for hero tv shows he also in the comics fights characters that EASLY hold there own and have BEATEN batman many times people just underrate him because batman is practically the most known n overhyped character n i rly like batman im no comic dweeb but batmans cool af oliver cooler tho
And people compare him to Batman lol. Because in the comics he has powers. Yes this show relies heavily on Egyptian mythology. And yes that creature is a Jackal. And I don’t know what you mean about “darker” if you mean gore no, it’s obviously not gonna have Gore but from what I heard it is brutal and it does have blood but not gore. But what I like about this show a lot is that it’s psychological with a bit of horror elements. Can’t wait for your reaction to episode 2. Also there’s 7 episodes so 6 more to go.
@@SpartanandPudgey I think the tone is like stranger things because that show had like multiple tones like horror, bit of comedy, suspense, sci-fi, romance, and coming of age. For Moon Knight it’s Psychological, action, a bit of humor (but quickly gets serious), bit of horror elements, and fantasy. I think the show will get better. plus 7 episodes! And episode 2 gave me some answers which that’s all I’m gonna say. But so far this reaction was interesting and I expected that from everyone in this 1st episode because moon knight isn’t that well known.
Excited to see these reactions since I never heard of Moonknight before this series. I heard he was a more violent version of Batman! I think this was one of the better marvel tv pilot episodes
You guys really should watch all the marvel Disney+ shows because all of them lead into the movies and all of them are Canon and you guys would be really be confused if you haven't seen any of them and go to see a movie like doctor strange or another one and be wondering why things are happening
@@SpartanandPudgey I know but if ye read comic about moon knight ye will know some background of series like who is Marc, why he have 2 personal, who is khonshu
@Spartan & Pudgey - "Why is my man a vegan? Get some meat on the man´s muscles..." For your information: Chris Hemsworth (the actor who plays Thor) is a vegan. So yeah... I think their muscles will be just fine without meat (in fact, WAAAAY bigger than yours, little man).
i knew id trigger someone with that comment 😂 if we are being specific, he 'maintained' his already built muscle for a short time while being a vegan. He usually eats lots of steak and built his body doing so, as his trainer has stated.
Great reaction! And the fact that we’re thrown in the middle of it and not know anything was def intentional, I feel like it’s supposed to reflect Steven’s reality.
I like that outlook Alex! interesting indeed. thanks for joining us!

Yeah the brains ability to deal with trauma is outstanding! thanks for the explanation thst helps!

Slight correction. It's dissociative. Not disassociative. They are two different words and dissociative is for the disorder.
He said there is chaos in you not there is a scale in you lol😂
haha thanks for clarifying that 😂
@@SpartanandPudgey 😁😉
I’ve been watching reactions all week this show is going to be SO good.
we are excited!
I love that the hell hound wasn't even trying to wait around for Marc's moon knight suit to fo around him. it knew that if it didn't finish him b4 he fully transforms then it's got no chance! then Marc literally drags its Ass back into the bathroom like he was trying to give his dog a bath lol.
haha epic scene!
He said praise Ammit, did not call Steven Ahmed. Lol
New series! What did you all think of Moon Knight? what are you hoping for in this series?
Been here since ATLA but just found these reactions now watching these 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽💪🏽
The sand is so that if he gets up in the middle of the night, he will know because of the footprint it would leave behind.
ah yes makes sense! good pick up
Yesssss I knew it!!! -Pudgey

ahh ok! thanks for clearing that up! can't wait to find out more
Harrow said there is "Chaos in you"
Thanks again for another great reaction. You guys have quickly become my favorite reactors on youtube. I love the interaction you have with each other and with the chat on your premieres.
Awww thanks Greg!! Like always, we have so much appreciation for your support 🥰💜
My wife said the same about checking the date on the phone, but in Steven's defense, I myself never check the day on my phone.
Never?!?!?!? Fair enough 😄
@@SpartanandPudgey nope, I base my days of the week on when the kids are at school 😆
hahaha if it ain't broke, dont fix it!
Moon Knight is my number 1 favorite Marvel character ❤
Love to the pair from India
Moon Knight was a member of Hawkeye's West Coast Avengers in the comics.
oh I didnt know Hawkeye had his own Avengers, thats pretty cool
@@SpartanandPudgey Yup. Here's the interesting part to me. Other members include Wanda & Vision, US Agent, War Machine (Rhodie) and Kate Bishop.

Another member is Mockingbird who is Hawkeye's wife. Her symbol is on the back of a watch from the Avengers movie Age of Ultron.
we haven't watched the other mini sereis but are planning to on the channel after moon knight!
Hrm, people are being a bit too spoilery, imo...
Oscar Isaacs normal accent is American, what you hear in the mirrors. It's the British accent that he's affecting.
Dont worry,
We know when to stop reading before it's too late! but yes a bit too much in some comments 😅
I don’t know if you guys have it on, but you should put on captions. It gives more contexts with some things you guys missed. Love the reaction !
Thanks for the recommendation!!
And we are happy to have you join our journey 😀
No CC mate that will spoil some things, just use SUBTITLES.
🔥
Nah mate you've got ir all wrong, Moonknight is a supernatural character, he does tend to fight crime sometimes but he is 85% supernatural so you'll see him fight mostly creatures, monsters and ghosts
We are ready!!!

By darker we mean taking itself more seriously similarly to the daredevil netflix show.

Oh wow really?
We had never heard of him till the series either!!
Glad to have you on board for this journey!!
all the other series are pretty great, but take place after the movie arcs
Haven't watch this ! If you guys are watching, I will watch
that sounds awesome Labib!
You guys really should watch all the marvel Disney+ shows because all of them lead into the movies and all of them are Canon and you guys would be really be confused if you haven't seen any of them and go to see a movie like doctor strange or another one and be wondering why things are happening
we are planning to do more following this one!
@@SpartanandPudgey This is the only one I dont know if its connected to the MCU "yet" still might be tho
Very late ...did you notice the place he woke up in was actually Latvia ! Home of a very famous DR
Nope. Latvia is a real country, Latveria is where Doctor Doom comes from. Different countries.
@@moreau1755 ok yes i should google first but yes Latveria thanks
Who is she!! Goodddaamn 🙏
Obviously his girlfriend or wife show some respect
Newbies marvel comic ay?
Definitely our first marvel series
@@SpartanandPudgey I know but if ye read comic about moon knight ye will know some background of series like who is Marc, why he have 2 personal, who is khonshu

Oh right, definitely haven't read the comic!!!
