Hey I know this isn't related to Moon Knight or Marvel but seeing as you guys haven't reacted to a DC movie in a while I have a suggestion. Justice League: Gods and Monsters. It's an alternate universe story on the Justice League. There are also 3 minisodes that take place before the movie. It is really is a great movie and I think you guys would really enjoy it.
Ngl, the idea of Marc getting home, seeing the fish is dead after not being fed for two days, and presumably going out running around town trying to panic buy a new one-finned fish because he knows how much Steven loves the fish is both hilarious and low-key kind of adorable lmao can't wait to see what happens next
You just made me realize the explanation to how the fish grew a fin... everything just clicked for me alongside the woman at the shop saying he already came in, thanks Cady! :) 4:35 AM (yep!) 5/7/2022
The postcards he gets from his mom are the same ones they sell at his museum. Perhaps Marc was also writing to him as their mom to give him some familial emotional support.
Yeah I thought about this too. And I think the date is the same thing, don't think Marc intended the date for himself, instead he made moves to help Steven.
Ya also the date . That mark asked being Steven for him to keep Steven at ease. And also replacing the gold fish to not making him emotional. It's nice that mark is taking care for Stevens mental health
Some things to know about Dissociative Identity Disorder: -it’s a covert disorder, meaning that it’s quite common for alters to not even know that they have the disorder -it can only develop in childhood through repeated trauma -blackouts are one of the main symptoms, losing hours, days, or even weeks sometimes -it’s quite common for alters to have different accents. It’s all based upon what the child can view as someone that can protect them, and ideas they have already. So if the body knew of American accents or grew up around them, it’s extremely likely to have an American alter in Britain -alters tend to have the job of acting like the host, in this case that’s Steven. So most likely if Marc is fronting at some place that Steven is supposed to be, then he can pretend to be Steven -co-consciousness is what happens when alters can communicate with one another when one is fronting. It’s essentially them being in the passenger seat of the car
Ty for this. There are so many people who believe this isn’t a real thing and only fiction but it’s not and can be really difficult. I hope they somewhat represent DID properly in this show unlike other shows and movies (ex: split)
@@jessjasmin06 To be fair Moon Knight's DID is much more mystical. Not sure how the show is doing it but from what I understand from the comics his DID only came after he got his powers.

Granted the lack of cooperation is not helping , but hopefully if the end of the episode means anything at the very least Marc and Steven will be able to swap more smoothly now that the latter is aware of the former.
The writers said that there is three personalities. One is Marc who is also moon knight, the other is Steven grant and the third is Mr knight. I wonder if Mr knight has a regular human counterpart like Marc who is also moon knight.
@@calebstephan2083 I'm wondering if Mr. Knight is the one that arranged that date though, I'm not very familiar with Moon Knight comics, but just based on promotional art, it seems like Mr. Knight might be more likely to arrange a steak dinner, and if Marc set up the date he'd have had to impersonate Steven's accent really well (which is totally plausible)
Possible since I think Jack Lockley has been hinted at by Oscar Isaac. Make sense to have a in between between Marc and Steven who is independent of the Moon Knight abilities like Steven while still have a more confidence personality like Marc
Same here. But I can see the next episode being the same events from Marks point of view because that scene where Steven has a broken jaw we don't see him fall. But we actually see him falling to that point in the trailers they released.
I've seen so many complaints about very little action in the episode (not here but on Reel Rejects video). It's such a great episode. I don't get why people can't appreciate storytelling and great character detail. They seem to only want mindless action.
@@Angela-bm3lp I mean, it’s not really GREAT character detail. He’s awkward and that’s most of what we learn about him. We don’t even know what he wants from his life.
Of all the things to be confused about in this episode, I never would've thought that people calling Steven the wrong name (to indicate that he's pretty insignificant) would be misconstrued.
@@levipeterken4020 It's unfortunate, I've seen many reactors either cut that scene out of their reaction or find it humorous. There's nothing wrong with that, but I just found the scene so heartbreaking. Almost had me teary eyed lol
Now I’m just sitting here imagining mark and konshu in the pet store looking for a fish with one fin and eventually getting fed up like “screw it he probably won’t even notice” and just picking one.
I have DID and I was pleasantly surprised at how accurate this was. Of course it has a fantasy element but the experience of losing time/blacking out was so real it almost made me cry. Super excited to see the rest :)
Do you mind if I ask you a question: How does it feel to have DID and how severely does it affect your life? I'm just curious but trying to stay sensitive.
@@itsmaddogofficial No worries, that's a big question though. In the beginning it was a lot like you see in this episode of MK, weird little things that add up until you think you're going crazy. People calling you the wrong name, saying you scheduled a date, etc. The vegan thing actually happened to me lol I used to be vegetarian but my alters would eat meat so people said they saw me eat meat and it was so confusing. Also similar to MK with the cellphone, I always found social media accounts on my phone under different names, with very different personalities. But the thing is I had some awareness like 20% of the time someone else was fronting. So the way it felt was that I was pretending to be someone else online, and I happened to black out when I was pretending. It sounds dumb but I didn't know any different so I genuinely thought other people blacked out a lot and hardly remembered anything. Then after I was diagnosed it opened the door, I wrote notes to my alters and responses started appearing. We started working on communication, and doing trauma work ofc which helped us grow closer because some alters were/are "hid away" to protect the rest of us from knowing their bad memories. Now I have blackouts a lot less but they still happen. If I'm close to an alter I will remember, for example where they went or who they talked to, but not the details. Otherwise switching in is like waking up. Kinda similar to the show in that, I don't go anywhere in between, my consciousness just skips ahead suddenly. But the show is pretty dramatized, it is more gradual and fuzzy, not just BOOM I'm somewhere else. Sometimes it happens in the middle of a conversation and I have no idea what I just said. Sometimes I still have dumb moments like, my alter will order a coffee and then later I'll ask whose it is (I don't drink coffee). But mostly we are good at communicating and keeping track of stuff, we all have our strengths and come out at different times, and we work well together.
@@Richie___Rich thats really interesting, and the way you write to yourself is really smart. Im glad its getting better for you! Im not surprised that the show is a little dramatized because i cant imagine the time chunks you miss are that big. Thanks for talking about this, i really just wanted to learn more about it from someone who actually experiences it.
definitely agree that we don't need cameos in this show. so far it's been feeling like a more refined pre-mcu superhero movie like ghost rider and blade with the mystical, more serious tone and high concept.
The scenatist said that at first there was référence to other Marvel media, but they scrapped it to let marvel integrate the character when they want in the timeline
I love how the Anubis type creature is chasing Steven trying to kill him and then when he turns into moon knight the creature is scraping at the door trying to get out like nope no thank you
@@thenameless7810 What do you think Anubis is? He is the jackal headed God of the dead that's why I said Anubis type creature because it's not just a regular jackal
In the lore Anubis is like a judge, he judge whether you are worthy to live, if failed ammet will then devoured the victim. Anubis is a god not to be mistaken as a jackel. There are multiple jackel deity in the Egyptian legends.
I LOVE how on every reaction I see of Moon Knight. The reactors say the same thing I did watching the car scene " FINAL DESTINATION". We as a soceity have all been traumatized by those movies.
Just wanted to say, schizophrenia is having hallucinations and paranoia. Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is having multiple personalities within the same individual. They are very different things.
There is a trope in some of the comics that he IS hallucinating, that Moon Knight and Khonshu arent real. Unreliable narrator type stuff. So its implied he has both.
@@ryanparker4996 which you CAN have. You can have both schizophrenia and DID because they have very different symptoms. I know a few systems who have multiple mental health diagnosis...a few with schizophrenia and DID.
I agree with Rick about Gus the one-finned fish dying of starvation. it seems like Steven went to sleep, then Marc woke up and went to do a bunch of Moon Knight stuff in western Europe (including scarab stealing) but it took longer than he expected to get back due to Steven's interference. By the time Marc got back to England, Gus was dead. So Marc bought the new fish to cover for the excess lost time, then went to sleep. Then Steven (whose last memory was of the final destination logs killing those 2 guys) woke up screaming. Which is really kind of sad. I know it can be hard to keep goldfish alive even with daily care, but poor one-finned Gus didn't deserve his fate. Superheroes need care plans for their pets, their jobs are too unpredictable.
@@theawesomeman9821 this isn't meant to be full on action it's exploring the mystery behind moon knight I get that this series might not be for everyone but it's different and not the typical MCU show we're used too non stop action is calm but I'm excited to see more of the story.
its no longer called multiple personality disorder but Dissociative Identity Disorder, in this sense Marc and Steven are not different "personalities", they are different people entirely, so they are called "Alters"
What a fantastic show! I liked that they cut the action scenes out to put us in the prospective of Steven grant. The music and horror elements were Great!!
@mmm mmm the voice is already deep. It just doesn't sound mysterious and the way it talks is like a teen girl. "Truck! Truck, stupid!" It's literally just like Venom.
Yeah, very common misconception which Eric mentioned. But you can still relate his experiences of schizophrenia like hallucinations and voices in your head or thinking you're someone else.
Yeah, they have pretty different symptoms. But you CAN have both disorders be comorbid. So you can have them both at the same time. But yeah, in this case it's just DID.
@@AnxietyRat it may well be both in this case, he sees a bloody Egyptian God, shouldn’t that point to Schizophrenia? Or do DID persons also see things that don’t or shouldn’t exist?
@@dlilwon They can. It's not super common but it can happen. That's the one gripe I have with the show. The dissociating is visually looking more like hallucinating...and they are not the same experiences. But yeah, some systems can visually see their alters in the world around them but most just communicate internally. Alters can also sometimes see their internal apperance in mirrors and not see the body. But other systems do see the body in mirrors but don't identify with its appearance... like looking at a stranger. It's a very varied disorder. Each system functions in different ways so it's a hard disorder to super accurately portray. As it's slightly different for each person. The Egyptian God would point to schizophrenia IF we didn't know that in this universe gods actually exist. And in this case an actual Egyptian God has chosen Marc to be his worldly Avatar. We meet other gods Avatars in a future episode from what screenshots have told me.
@@AnxietyRat in the current iteration of the comics Marc had schizophrenia signs as a child, and then when he became empowered developed DID because of the trauma.
@@GothicalDarkAngel The 2014 Ellis run is good for newcomers. After that the Charlie Hutson one (even though the Charlie Hutson version gets really violent).
Moon Knight has been in my top 3 superheroes out of both DC and Marvel since I was around 10 years old. Super excited for fans of the MCU to experience Moon Knight and hopefully it has piqued peoples' interest enough to pick up the comics.
Not gonna lie, the vegan breaking down and ordering the best cut of steak he could almost broke me. It's so weird to see Oscar Isaacs as Steven, but I expect he's going over the top as a contrast to the Marc personality, similar to how William Defoe did it in the first Spiderman movie
@@morgane.n The vibe I got from it is that he was so fed up with his life at that point that he just gave up and thought he may as well try it. He may have been vegan as a moral choice rather than dietary restriction.
Given that Marc is a Mercenary, I think mark taking over throughout the episode, excluding the end, was just Mercenary Marc being a badass in Normal Marc form.
@@charlesgonzalez1406 idk how it will be in the series but Marc is or was the mercenary in the comics, that's part of his origin story. Steven is rich dude kinda like Bruce Wayne and the third personality is a taxi driver guy.
@@charlesgonzalez1406 marc's a badass, khonshu (the god) is the power source and idk if they are gonna throw jake lockley in here with the other two. it seems we got a fine rapport with just the two of them.
I think he's checking. Marc is dead or not after fall from that high building. But still- after that he waved back and do nothing is funny. Is he confused? 🤣
You gotta think that with Thor turning out to be real in this universe, all the other religions and myths have to feel at least a little more probable. Tons of people ought to be researching or at least taking an interest after all that's happened.
So is Thena literally the goddess Athena? Meaning Zeus never had her? And she was never apart of the Greek pantheon? Would be interesting to be see the MCU Hercules
Jesus is probably a Eternal think about it his father is probably Archen he can turn water to wine walk on water and create unlimited food and is very fond of humans
Cannot remember the last performance that got to me when the lead lost out on a date. Brilliant acting from Oscar and love how they are setting it all up
I love that the audience is in the same page as Steven. We have no idea what's going on or when he got the powers. We don't even know which personality was the original - Steven or Marc. Also, I wonder if the mum exists. For all we know, he may be speaking to a dial tone.
With how DID actually functions there is no original personality. Because the trauma that happens to create DID happens before the personality is fully formed in a child. They are both equally real people.
@@Fivreld From the comics Marc is the host. he is the one the body is named after(that's not the case with every systems host but in this case Marc is also the host) and who has the DID diagnosis.
There are always 3 reflections for the 3 personalities inside him. Also note there was no title card, because we didn't know moon knight but next episode we'll get one because we know who he is now. We've known everyone that's had a tv show until now. Cool we didn't get one because we didn't know him.
I don't have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder, but from what I know, the system has alters with some being more dominant than others. The alters may have different roles such as the protector, etc. Alters may not always be aware of what another does
This whole episode makes SO much more sense now that I know he has DID. This bit of information makes me so much more excited for the rest of this show
Aaron seems to expect everything to be explained as it’s happening. Like, it’s a series my dude… there are more episodes. Let the mystery unfold naturally.
I really have no idea how he's that confused. I know nothing of Moon Knight, didn't see any trailers, just decided to watch it and I feel pretty comfortable with what's going on. Obviously there's mystery, but not confusion. So I'm not sure how he got that lost 😂
Man, Eric is so cavalier about his eye. I recently had eye surgery, not only to remove a cataract and implant a lens, but to remove the oil they put in the back of my eye during my previous surgery to reattach my retina, both of which involved the removal of the vitreous gel in my eye. My eye is a bit swollen and gnarly and red.
I don't know if it's been mentioned, but Eric should go see an eye doctor. If it was a burst blood vessel (subconjunctival hemorrhage) it shouldn't have any pain other than possible slight discomfort. Don't hesitate when it comes to your eyes. Go see an optometrist asap. (opthalmic assistant and optician here). Love watching Blind Wave reactions, wish only the best of health to you all.
@@CryptikConstruct Thank you for poorly placed and mostly off topic public service message. We can all feel the concern you have for another person's suffering.
@@Well...Darn. how is it off topic? Directly related to the post and the topic of health care. If it was free, or cheap as chips, like the rest of the world then maybe people would see a doctor. Did the truth trigger you?
@@CryptikConstruct Silly Simon. Somebody had the audacity to react poorly to your pronouncement so they must be triggered? Anyway. I didn't call you a liar. I didn't suggest that your PSA was not factual. I'm not even saying I disagree with you. That said, the topic of the original post was the concern for Eric. Sure, it was concern for something medical, but the actual subject was compassion. This would be why I used the words "mostly off topic" instead of "completely off topic." So, did calling you out on the fact that you used the most flimsy of excuses to rage against the health system trigger you?
Dope episode. Moon Knight fan since 1993. The visuals in this episode were glorious. I'm getting Fight Club, Indiana Jones, Ghostbusters, The Mummy, Jacob's Ladder, and Donnie Darko vibes from this show.
Just so you guys know there is a real mental disorder called Disassociate Identity disorder (DID) which include multiple identities within one body known as "alters" and stems from childhood trauma. Many of the memories of the alters are not shared which can mean loss of time for some. There are positions in this system but the one I want to talk about is "The Host" which is essentially the alter which is clueless to the existence of the system and is created as a defense mechanism to be able to life their day-to-day life without the burdens of past traumatic memories. While in real life DID comes from repeated trauma to children under 7ish, if I remember correctly, I believe that in the case of Moon Knight this is a result of the original Identity gaining the powers to become Moon Knight. Also as a side note people who have DID sometimes consider terms like Multiple Personality Disorder or referring to different Alters as "Personalities" outdated and offensive since although they split off from one mind they are full people with their own complexities and quirks. I am a friend of some people who have DID so I'm glad that so far Moon Knight has been able to present a piece of media that portrays the condition mostly accurately. Otherwise, loved the reaction, been watching for a while. :)
A common misconception is that moon knight itself is a separate persona like Steven, but it’s actually just Marc with an extra thirst for vengeance, same with mr. Knight except he’s a more calm and collected version of Marc, while Steven and his other personality are completely different identities
I think we're gonna see Marc's perspective. How he killed those people and the car chase scene and I think the broken jaw was caused by him falling from the castle.
The girl asking about the reeds I’m presuming was actually asking Marc, since in the comics he actually dies and is brought back by Khonshu (the bird skull in mummy rap) and that’s when he gets his powers, how she knew about that and if she really is a just a random little girl (unlikely) idk tho
The reason Marc was telling steven give him control because he knows how to use and summon the suit and whenever Steven passed out while driving the truck it was mark fighting because he was a mercenary before he became moon knight, and the dude calling steven a parasite was konshu the moon God
Um... these guys are not well-informed with Moon Knight and his origin. Let them find out about who the "God" is when the show reveals it to them organically.
"What else makes sense!? That he went to Germany, saw someone's life-force get eaten, when in and out of consciousness..." Why, yes, Aaron. That is exactly what happened.
Also it is not called Split personality or multiplier Personality disorder any more it is now called Dissociative Identity Disorder or DiD. and it is when a person, most likely a kid goes through repeated trauma and the mind can't handle it anymore so the brain creates an alter to protect itself from harm. and that alter is know as a protector. But, the alters do have real memories and they are also real people. This was a good way of showing how involuntary alter changes are. For what I know about DiD, you can really lose days even when one of you alters decides to front. Seems Steven is a fairly new-ish alter so whatever happened to Marc to make Steven take over for so long must’ve pretty large trauma (which alters are born/created which is through Massive trauma). I appreciate the fact they (the host and alters) Haven’t made an “Evil” alter yet. Again DiD is about managing trauma not causing it. Yes, some alters (known as Protecters) can be rougher on the outside ( aka in front while the host is in the mind). But, never straight-up causing problems on purpose only to protect the host and the other alters. And Marc is the host as for Steven he is the one who is the most out aka in front so he can have some social life. Also Marc always had DiD as a kid/teen he has 4-5 alters
Omg someone who knows what DID is and didnt say split personalities. The amount of reactors/commentors iv seen call it split or multiple personalities is astounding. Also I think Jane from "Doom Patrol" is also a good exmaple of an alter fronting majority of the time. Im glad the shows are doing there work when it comes to disabilities & disorders.
Steven does give permission for Marc to take control at the end, so there’s a chance he actually is aware of what’s going on at the end. But maybe not, I doubt they’d want to have all the Steven being confused storyline end at episode 1. Not sure though.
Just to clean up Aaron's thoughts/questions Speculation/Potential Spoilers - - - - Steven and Marc are in one body. They are a person who has DID. However, Marc during some sort of mission doing whatever he does was possessed by a God or something that allows Marc to become Moon Knight, but Steven can not.
@43:45 IIRC this was the premise of a short-lived TV show, "My Own Worst Enemy", starring Christian Slater as a mild-mannered family man with a split personality that's a Jason Bourne type.
Oscar Issac killed it in this first episode in a matter of 40 minutes we went from not knowing anything about him to character development for this guy and felt for him and were rooting for him.
If you ask me, Moon Knight feels more like their getting back to their Netflix MCU roots, making me think they could’ve introduced Moon Knight a lot sooner and on Netflix with Daredevil and co
The mummy you guys see following Steven around is actually the Egyptian Moon God Khonshu who gave Marc Spector his Moon Knight Powers. It's his voice we hear throughout the episode instructing him. Also if you guys notice, every mirror shot of steven has 3 reflections, this is deliberate as there are 3 alters in that body, Marc Spector, Steven Grant and Jake Lockley. I'd say we learned about Steven in this episode, in the next one we'll learn about Marc and get a glimpse of Jake, and in the third one we'll learn about Jake and the show will go full auto from there.
26:22 Schizophrenia doesn't have multiple personalities. They can have delusions, the can have hallucinations, they can be disorganized or maybe kinda emotionally flattened affect... but split personalities is not schizophrenia
22:40 - There is more than just Steven and Marc. During the scene at 7:40, the voice knows it's not Marc... yet it only realizes it's talking to "the idiot" a few moments later.
When he is on the phone. What if he is talking to Marc!! Leaving messages and then marc can listen to them when he is in control so he knows what Steven is doing!!
I’m pretty sure Konchu, Marc and Steven are all existing in the entity. When driving the truck, Konchu talks to marc, “Wake up Marc! If he (Steven) loses the scarab, I will kill you both.” When Steven threw the gun, Konchu says to Marc, “Did he (Steven) just throw the gun?”

Do you mind if I ask you a question: How does it feel to have DID and how severely does it affect your life? I'm just curious but trying to stay sensitive.
@@itsmaddogofficial No worries, that's a big question though.
In the beginning it was a lot like you see in this episode of MK, weird little things that add up until you think you're going crazy. People calling you the wrong name, saying you scheduled a date, etc. The vegan thing actually happened to me lol I used to be vegetarian but my alters would eat meat so people said they saw me eat meat and it was so confusing. Also similar to MK with the cellphone, I always found social media accounts on my phone under different names, with very different personalities. But the thing is I had some awareness like 20% of the time someone else was fronting. So the way it felt was that I was pretending to be someone else online, and I happened to black out when I was pretending. It sounds dumb but I didn't know any different so I genuinely thought other people blacked out a lot and hardly remembered anything.
Then after I was diagnosed it opened the door, I wrote notes to my alters and responses started appearing. We started working on communication, and doing trauma work ofc which helped us grow closer because some alters were/are "hid away" to protect the rest of us from knowing their bad memories.
Now I have blackouts a lot less but they still happen. If I'm close to an alter I will remember, for example where they went or who they talked to, but not the details. Otherwise switching in is like waking up. Kinda similar to the show in that, I don't go anywhere in between, my consciousness just skips ahead suddenly. But the show is pretty dramatized, it is more gradual and fuzzy, not just BOOM I'm somewhere else. Sometimes it happens in the middle of a conversation and I have no idea what I just said. Sometimes I still have dumb moments like, my alter will order a coffee and then later I'll ask whose it is (I don't drink coffee). But mostly we are good at communicating and keeping track of stuff, we all have our strengths and come out at different times, and we work well together.
@@Richie___Rich thats really interesting, and the way you write to yourself is really smart. Im glad its getting better for you! Im not surprised that the show is a little dramatized because i cant imagine the time chunks you miss are that big. Thanks for talking about this, i really just wanted to learn more about it from someone who actually experiences it.
Got teary eyed when Steven missed his date! Great acting from Oscar!!!👏👏
IKR, that actually hit hard
I’ve seen a couple reactors laughing at the scene lol, but man he did a great job
He's a great actor🤩
truly
@@Zbeast5972 There's nothing wrong with laughing but I'm shocked at just how many people did laugh. I found that scene to be so heartbreaking
definitely agree that we don't need cameos in this show. so far it's been feeling like a more refined pre-mcu superhero movie like ghost rider and blade with the mystical, more serious tone and high concept.
Same! 🙏🏽
yeah, i like to think than moonknight himself will BE a cameo in upcoming mcu projects
@@Frank_Ditch I think that's what they're intending by making this a limited series
@@ryansmith-jr4gn first ghost rider was good. Second one trash
The scenatist said that at first there was référence to other Marvel media, but they scrapped it to let marvel integrate the character when they want in the timeline
He doesn't need "permission"from Steven, he needs Steven to not fight him on it so he can do his part to keep the system alive
I love how the Anubis type creature is chasing Steven trying to kill him and then when he turns into moon knight the creature is scraping at the door trying to get out like nope no thank you
That was 😎 very cool.
That is a jackel
@@thenameless7810 What do you think Anubis is? He is the jackal headed God of the dead that's why I said Anubis type creature because it's not just a regular jackal
@@wheelz9414 yup but that is not Anubis , I am just saying that that is just a jackel.
In the lore Anubis is like a judge, he judge whether you are worthy to live, if failed ammet will then devoured the victim. Anubis is a god not to be mistaken as a jackel. There are multiple jackel deity in the Egyptian legends.
I LOVE how on every reaction I see of Moon Knight. The reactors say the same thing I did watching the car scene " FINAL DESTINATION". We as a soceity have all been traumatized by those movies.
I fucking hate driving anywhere near logging trucks thanks to that movie
I never even saw the movie yet it still triggers me because people have referenced it so much over the years. 😄

Aaron: "He's ruinin' his feet"
Moments like these are why I watch blind wave
Just wanted to say, schizophrenia is having hallucinations and paranoia. Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is having multiple personalities within the same individual. They are very different things.
Yeah, most people use the terms interchangeably. It doesn't bother me, I don't blame anyone for not knowing everything.
There is a trope in some of the comics that he IS hallucinating, that Moon Knight and Khonshu arent real. Unreliable narrator type stuff. So its implied he has both.
@@ryanparker4996 which you CAN have. You can have both schizophrenia and DID because they have very different symptoms. I know a few systems who have multiple mental health diagnosis...a few with schizophrenia and DID.
You don't need to have paranoia to have schizophrenia. You need a combination of negative and positive symptoms to have schizophrenia.
@@AnxietyRat Do you know if it is possible for an Alter to have schizophrenia and others not, in the same system?
I agree with Rick about Gus the one-finned fish dying of starvation. it seems like Steven went to sleep, then Marc woke up and went to do a bunch of Moon Knight stuff in western Europe (including scarab stealing) but it took longer than he expected to get back due to Steven's interference. By the time Marc got back to England, Gus was dead. So Marc bought the new fish to cover for the excess lost time, then went to sleep. Then Steven (whose last memory was of the final destination logs killing those 2 guys) woke up screaming.
Which is really kind of sad. I know it can be hard to keep goldfish alive even with daily care, but poor one-finned Gus didn't deserve his fate. Superheroes need care plans for their pets, their jobs are too unpredictable.
Just finished watching the episode. This series looks extremely promising!
Be ready to be let down by eps 2 through 4 then.
I'd give it 7/10 parts of it was boring
@@theawesomeman9821 this isn't meant to be full on action it's exploring the mystery behind moon knight I get that this series might not be for everyone but it's different and not the typical MCU show we're used too non stop action is calm but I'm excited to see more of the story.
@@maxmacraft6614 I'm happy for you
its no longer called multiple personality disorder but Dissociative Identity Disorder, in this sense Marc and Steven are not different "personalities", they are different people entirely, so they are called "Alters"
Calvin- “It’s like an ancient ruin”
Aaron- “He’s like ruinin his feet”
😂😂😂 I love Aaron
Love the fact a ton of the trailer clips are from the fist episode. It makes viewing so much better imo.
I thought the exact same!
What a fantastic show! I liked that they cut the action scenes out to put us in the prospective of Steven grant. The music and horror elements were Great!!
I’ve already put it above the other first eps Marvel brought up
It reminds a bit of analogue horror you find on UA-cam. Good stuff.
@@shadowmahesh9876 100%
i just hate how they made the god's voice sound. it sounds just like Venom and doesn't fit at all with the horror visuals of Khonshu.
@mmm mmm the voice is already deep. It just doesn't sound mysterious and the way it talks is like a teen girl. "Truck! Truck, stupid!" It's literally just like Venom.
Not Schizophrenia, it's Dissociative Identity Disorder.
Schizophrenia is something different.
Yeah, very common misconception which Eric mentioned. But you can still relate his experiences of schizophrenia like hallucinations and voices in your head or thinking you're someone else.
Yeah, they have pretty different symptoms. But you CAN have both disorders be comorbid. So you can have them both at the same time. But yeah, in this case it's just DID.
@@AnxietyRat it may well be both in this case, he sees a bloody Egyptian God, shouldn’t that point to Schizophrenia? Or do DID persons also see things that don’t or shouldn’t exist?
@@dlilwon They can. It's not super common but it can happen. That's the one gripe I have with the show. The dissociating is visually looking more like hallucinating...and they are not the same experiences.
But yeah, some systems can visually see their alters in the world around them but most just communicate internally. Alters can also sometimes see their internal apperance in mirrors and not see the body. But other systems do see the body in mirrors but don't identify with its appearance... like looking at a stranger.
It's a very varied disorder. Each system functions in different ways so it's a hard disorder to super accurately portray. As it's slightly different for each person.
The Egyptian God would point to schizophrenia IF we didn't know that in this universe gods actually exist. And in this case an actual Egyptian God has chosen Marc to be his worldly Avatar. We meet other gods Avatars in a future episode from what screenshots have told me.
@@AnxietyRat in the current iteration of the comics Marc had schizophrenia signs as a child, and then when he became empowered developed DID because of the trauma.
Im so happy that people are starting to learn about Moon Knight. He's been my favorite for years and I'm just unbelievably excited
I want to know more about him. I didn't even know of his existence until two years ago. Which comic issue(s) should I begin with?
@@GothicalDarkAngel The 2014 Ellis run is good for newcomers. After that the Charlie Hutson one (even though the Charlie Hutson version gets really violent).
@@GothicalDarkAngel You should also read Jeff Lemire’s run
Moon Knight has been in my top 3 superheroes out of both DC and Marvel since I was around 10 years old. Super excited for fans of the MCU to experience Moon Knight and hopefully it has piqued peoples' interest enough to pick up the comics.
Not gonna lie, the vegan breaking down and ordering the best cut of steak he could almost broke me.
It's so weird to see Oscar Isaacs as Steven, but I expect he's going over the top as a contrast to the Marc personality, similar to how William Defoe did it in the first Spiderman movie
And in No Way Home.
The turn to the Goblin was so good.
why did he order steak if he's vegan? that's what I didn't understand
@@morgane.n he was shocked that a woman wants to date him. So he was just following along 🤣🤣
@@morgane.n He did that to spite himself because he hurt someone's feelings.
@@morgane.n The vibe I got from it is that he was so fed up with his life at that point that he just gave up and thought he may as well try it. He may have been vegan as a moral choice rather than dietary restriction.
Given that Marc is a Mercenary, I think mark taking over throughout the episode, excluding the end, was just Mercenary Marc being a badass in Normal Marc form.
Pretty sure the third personality is the mercenary, while Marc is just a vigilante/hero, dunno much about Moon Knight tho
@@charlesgonzalez1406 idk how it will be in the series but Marc is or was the mercenary in the comics, that's part of his origin story.
Steven is rich dude kinda like Bruce Wayne and the third personality is a taxi driver guy.
@@afxboc ah ok, thx for the info, although I think they changed the part about Steven being rich
@@charlesgonzalez1406 yeah, it does look like that they've changed it
@@charlesgonzalez1406 marc's a badass, khonshu (the god) is the power source and idk if they are gonna throw jake lockley in here with the other two. it seems we got a fine rapport with just the two of them.
When he was eating the chocolate alone it broke my heart. I dont think I have ever cried so hard for something so futile
Good rule of thumb: The more confused and angry that Aaron is, the better the show is.
That's why The Room is a masterpiece.
Clearly Marc is paying most of the bills as no way could Steven afford such a large flat on a gift shop workers wage in Central London.
"Well, I'm sorry. You may have been a poor fish owner." that got me XD
This was the best first episode out of all the disney plus mcu shows
The most funniest part of this episode everyone is missing that guard in the window that waved back at Steven when he was supposed to be shooting him.
I think he's checking. Marc is dead or not after fall from that high building. But still- after that he waved back and do nothing is funny. Is he confused? 🤣
No one missed that
Right like why does no one talk about that 😂 the “what are you doing?” 😭
I love that Aaron is making this much more complicated than it actually is.
😂😂bro Aaron always over complicates things either that or he's always lost when reacting lol.
that is aaron during every discussion
14:39 “it’s his mom” made me spit my tea out all over the screen. 😂
You gotta think that with Thor turning out to be real in this universe, all the other religions and myths have to feel at least a little more probable. Tons of people ought to be researching or at least taking an interest after all that's happened.
The Eternals clearly inspired some myths as well.
So is Thena literally the goddess Athena? Meaning Zeus never had her? And she was never apart of the Greek pantheon? Would be interesting to be see the MCU Hercules
Jesus is probably a Eternal think about it his father is probably Archen he can turn water to wine walk on water and create unlimited food and is very fond of humans
Oh man I wonder what heros and villains inspired the Hindu gods
@@taegotkash no, she's named after Athena in the comics.

My brain hang for sec, but now i get it.
@@suryaditaufan7285 Mark technically died, but brought back to life by Konshu if he becomes his avatar.
I love that the audience is in the same page as Steven. We have no idea what's going on or when he got the powers. We don't even know which personality was the original - Steven or Marc.
Also, I wonder if the mum exists. For all we know, he may be speaking to a dial tone.
With how DID actually functions there is no original personality. Because the trauma that happens to create DID happens before the personality is fully formed in a child. They are both equally real people.
i'm guessing what they're trying to ask is who the host is, marc or steven.
@@Fivreld From the comics Marc is the host. he is the one the body is named after(that's not the case with every systems host but in this case Marc is also the host) and who has the DID diagnosis.
I'm really hoping the quality of this series stays as good as the first episode! This pilot was superb!
There are always 3 reflections for the 3 personalities inside him.
Also note there was no title card, because we didn't know moon knight but next episode we'll get one because we know who he is now. We've known everyone that's had a tv show until now. Cool we didn't get one because we didn't know him.
I don't have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder, but from what I know, the system has alters with some being more dominant than others. The alters may have different roles such as the protector, etc. Alters may not always be aware of what another does
This whole episode makes SO much more sense now that I know he has DID. This bit of information makes me so much more excited for the rest of this show
Aaron seems to expect everything to be explained as it’s happening. Like, it’s a series my dude… there are more episodes.
Let the mystery unfold naturally.
yeah, love Aaron but he sure does love his storylines spoon-fed to him. Either way his questioning keeps everyone talking so that’s good
My guy Aaron is always lost lmao 🤣.
I really have no idea how he's that confused. I know nothing of Moon Knight, didn't see any trailers, just decided to watch it and I feel pretty comfortable with what's going on. Obviously there's mystery, but not confusion. So I'm not sure how he got that lost 😂
@@stephenmoore1801 it’s not confusing. He just likes his narratives to be very very spoon fed to the viewer.
At first I wasn't sure if I'd like Moon Knight but after watching it I've fallen in love
Man, Eric is so cavalier about his eye. I recently had eye surgery, not only to remove a cataract and implant a lens, but to remove the oil they put in the back of my eye during my previous surgery to reattach my retina, both of which involved the removal of the vitreous gel in my eye. My eye is a bit swollen and gnarly and red.
I don't know if it's been mentioned, but Eric should go see an eye doctor. If it was a burst blood vessel (subconjunctival hemorrhage) it shouldn't have any pain other than possible slight discomfort. Don't hesitate when it comes to your eyes. Go see an optometrist asap. (opthalmic assistant and optician here). Love watching Blind Wave reactions, wish only the best of health to you all.
Unfortunately the US health system is about profit not health of patients. Pretty much every other country does it better.
@@CryptikConstruct Thank you for poorly placed and mostly off topic public service message. We can all feel the concern you have for another person's suffering.

@@CryptikConstruct Silly Simon. Somebody had the audacity to react poorly to your pronouncement so they must be triggered? Anyway.
I didn't call you a liar. I didn't suggest that your PSA was not factual. I'm not even saying I disagree with you. That said, the topic of the original post was the concern for Eric. Sure, it was concern for something medical, but the actual subject was compassion.
This would be why I used the words "mostly off topic" instead of "completely off topic."
So, did calling you out on the fact that you used the most flimsy of excuses to rage against the health system trigger you?
Dope episode. Moon Knight fan since 1993. The visuals in this episode were glorious. I'm getting Fight Club, Indiana Jones, Ghostbusters, The Mummy, Jacob's Ladder, and Donnie Darko vibes from this show.
Just so you guys know there is a real mental disorder called Disassociate Identity disorder (DID) which include multiple identities within one body known as "alters" and stems from childhood trauma. Many of the memories of the alters are not shared which can mean loss of time for some. There are positions in this system but the one I want to talk about is "The Host" which is essentially the alter which is clueless to the existence of the system and is created as a defense mechanism to be able to life their day-to-day life without the burdens of past traumatic memories. While in real life DID comes from repeated trauma to children under 7ish, if I remember correctly, I believe that in the case of Moon Knight this is a result of the original Identity gaining the powers to become Moon Knight. Also as a side note people who have DID sometimes consider terms like Multiple Personality Disorder or referring to different Alters as "Personalities" outdated and offensive since although they split off from one mind they are full people with their own complexities and quirks. I am a friend of some people who have DID so I'm glad that so far Moon Knight has been able to present a piece of media that portrays the condition mostly accurately. Otherwise, loved the reaction, been watching for a while. :)
Dissociative* don't worry 90% of the time I can't spell that word either lmao
@@jaytiny8 bro ngl i spent 5 minutes on that word alone and stll spelt it wrong lol
A common misconception is that moon knight itself is a separate persona like Steven, but it’s actually just Marc with an extra thirst for vengeance, same with mr. Knight except he’s a more calm and collected version of Marc, while Steven and his other personality are completely different identities
Aaron singing and dancing “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” is the best thing ever
I think we're gonna see Marc's perspective. How he killed those people and the car chase scene and I think the broken jaw was caused by him falling from the castle.
The girl asking about the reeds I’m presuming was actually asking Marc, since in the comics he actually dies and is brought back by Khonshu (the bird skull in mummy rap) and that’s when he gets his powers, how she knew about that and if she really is a just a random little girl (unlikely) idk tho
Maybe the girl is just in his imagination in his head since Steven really wants to be a tour guide.
One of Mark's personalities is a little girl ... I think that's her
The reason Marc was telling steven give him control because he knows how to use and summon the suit and whenever Steven passed out while driving the truck it was mark fighting because he was a mercenary before he became moon knight, and the dude calling steven a parasite was konshu the moon God
Um... these guys are not well-informed with Moon Knight and his origin. Let them find out about who the "God" is when the show reveals it to them organically.
So Konshu is the God that lends “Moon Knight” (aka Mark) his powers correct?
The rare Aaron prediction being dead wrong (that he was dreaming, no way it could have been real, etc).
"What else makes sense!? That he went to Germany, saw someone's life-force get eaten, when in and out of consciousness..."
Why, yes, Aaron. That is exactly what happened.
Also it is not called Split personality or multiplier Personality disorder any more it is now called Dissociative Identity Disorder or DiD. and it is when a person, most likely a kid goes through repeated trauma and the mind can't handle it anymore so the brain creates an alter to protect itself from harm. and that alter is know as a protector. But, the alters do have real memories and they are also real people.
This was a good way of showing how involuntary alter changes are. For what I know about DiD, you can really lose days even when one of you alters decides to front. Seems Steven is a fairly new-ish alter so whatever happened to Marc to make Steven take over for so long must’ve pretty large trauma (which alters are born/created which is through Massive trauma). I appreciate the fact they (the host and alters) Haven’t made an “Evil” alter yet. Again DiD is about managing trauma not causing it. Yes, some alters (known as Protecters) can be rougher on the outside ( aka in front while the host is in the mind). But, never straight-up causing problems on purpose only to protect the host and the other alters. And Marc is the host as for Steven he is the one who is the most out aka in front so he can have some social life.
Also Marc always had DiD as a kid/teen he has 4-5 alters
Thank you very informative. I also recommend a youtuber who has DID. I can’t remember the name but they did in an interview with Anthony Padilla
@@Blazecap DissociaDID
Omg someone who knows what DID is and didnt say split personalities. The amount of reactors/commentors iv seen call it split or multiple personalities is astounding.
Also I think Jane from "Doom Patrol" is also a good exmaple of an alter fronting majority of the time. Im glad the shows are doing there work when it comes to disabilities & disorders.
@@wisewillowgames ya I am very glad that this show is showing/talking about this disorder
SPOILERS
In the comics Marc is gunned down and kind of dies so that might be the trauma you mentioned.
this episode was crazy can't wait to see more
I really do love hearing about their life experiences, just fun to listen to
Steven does give permission for Marc to take control at the end, so there’s a chance he actually is aware of what’s going on at the end. But maybe not, I doubt they’d want to have all the Steven being confused storyline end at episode 1. Not sure though.
It’s really fun seeing people react to the show that don’t know about Moon Knight have multiple personalities
My favorite premiere of the Disney Plus Marvel shows and probably my favorite Marvel show premiere since Daredevil.
As a Mark myself, I am beyond pleased that there's finally a Marvel hero with my name (even though it's spelled wrong)

So fucking great
Moon Knight at the Museum
Oscar Issac killed it in this first episode in a matter of 40 minutes we went from not knowing anything about him to character development for this guy and felt for him and were rooting for him.
Marc Specter is the Mercenary, he can fight on his own. Marc can also call the Moon Knight. Steven is an alter- identity.
The music in the last scene was perfect. I’ve literally watched the ending like 10 times
If you ask me, Moon Knight feels more like their getting back to their Netflix MCU roots, making me think they could’ve introduced Moon Knight a lot sooner and on Netflix with Daredevil and co
11:39 That is painfully Accurate on our Autobahn in Germany
The first episode was so good! Can't wait to see more
The mummy you guys see following Steven around is actually the Egyptian Moon God Khonshu who gave Marc Spector his Moon Knight Powers. It's his voice we hear throughout the episode instructing him. Also if you guys notice, every mirror shot of steven has 3 reflections, this is deliberate as there are 3 alters in that body, Marc Spector, Steven Grant and Jake Lockley. I'd say we learned about Steven in this episode, in the next one we'll learn about Marc and get a glimpse of Jake, and in the third one we'll learn about Jake and the show will go full auto from there.
26:22
Schizophrenia doesn't have multiple personalities. They can have delusions, the can have hallucinations, they can be disorganized or maybe kinda emotionally flattened affect... but split personalities is not schizophrenia

"Everybody's got a gun!" Maybe Switzerland?
22:40 - There is more than just Steven and Marc.
During the scene at 7:40, the voice knows it's not Marc... yet it only realizes it's talking to "the idiot" a few moments later.
It's Khonsu talking
I'm so happy you guys are going in blind. I really hope you enjoy the series as more information is revealed!
Me and these guys literally said the same thing when watching this, "Final Destination!". 🤣
Aaron's advice could save so many movie characters: " just leave ok, shit's weird."
When he is on the phone. What if he is talking to Marc!! Leaving messages and then marc can listen to them when he is in control so he knows what Steven is doing!!
I've been waiting for this ALL DAY.
Hearing your analysis on this show makes me hope that you'll give Legion a second chance and that Mr. Robot will eventually win the poll.
I’m pretty sure Konchu, Marc and Steven are all existing in the entity. When driving the truck, Konchu talks to marc, “Wake up Marc! If he (Steven) loses the scarab, I will kill you both.” When Steven threw the gun, Konchu says to Marc, “Did he (Steven) just throw the gun?”
Loved this episode! Cannot wait for the rest of the episodes
17:53 No, a worse kind of chaos:
*MENTAL ILLNESS*
The reason why he transformed into the costume at the end was probably because it was night, when Moon Knight's powers are amplified.
