I think Gus the gold fish died while Marc was away so, he bought another one to make sure Steven doesn't noticed, but he did because Gus was literal his only friend so of course he'll know if something changed with him.

Oscar's English accent in trailers had me worried, but he really made a great choice. It just works so well with the character. Loved this pilot, it felt so much more cinematic than other TV shows, and I'll even excuse the poor CG in the car chase just because of Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go.
Some information about Ammit. In ancient egyptian mythology when someone dies their Soul is weighted against a feather, to see if it was pure and if it is heavier than the feather, impling that their Soul was not pure, their Soul is eaten by Ammit. That is what happend with that two people in the village, one was pure, the other wasnt. Ammit is also called the devourer of the dead.
I love how they started with Steven instead of Marc! The fact that they showed it from the POV of Marc's alternate personality was a brilliant move! And Khonshu is voiced by F. Murray Abraham which was amazing! Like when he said "DID HE THROW THE GUN?!" in disbelief was so damn hilarious! This is an Egyptian God facepalming basically LOL 😆😆😆
I thought Steven was the host since he has an actual job and most people know him as Steven? Or.. is that Marcs double life ( outside of the mercenary work), and he just applied for a job in Steven’s name because he fronts more often than the others or him in general?
@@dylancole1910 Marc is the true personality won't say much because the story for this character as a whole is amazing don't want to spoil anything. But Marc is main and Steven is secondary
@@kroneexe I know this is in hindsight, but the point does end up being that there is no 'main' personality - Steven and Marc are both equally important.
Yeah... love how they confuse the audience so you feel what he feels... and it's hilarious the monster at the end is trying to run from him... ohh and the fact his other personality tried to get him a date, what a cool personality, he is his own wingman.
I still wonder whether, when he asked her out, Marc put on a bad Cockney accent to pretend to be Steven, or if she just somehow didn't notice/comment on his sudden shift in accent? 😂
@@IceMetalPunk probably did put on Stevens accent. DID is a covert disorder on most cases so alters will often pretend to be the host. Including putting on their accent....some alters manage it better than others.
Random fact: Ethan Hawke came up with that himself. It wasn't in the original script. He thought it's something his character would do and the director agreed
IT HAS BEGAN!!!!!!! This episode was great!!!!! I'm glad that Disney is allowing Marvel to give a dark and brutal tone to their content!!!!! Enjoyed your reaction!!!! 🙏🏽💪
Just got done watching it myself. I'm actually surprised of how good it is so far. It's very interesting and trippy as hell. Shocked to see more blood. And the score was so good!
"Oscar Isaac was in Star Wars and... now the MCU, he's everywhere!" Yet still, Ming-Na Wen is the only actor to perform a Disney Hat Trick, being in Disney (Mulan), Star Wars (Mandalorian), and the MCU (Agents of SHIELD). Uncontested victory for Melinda May! 😁
BTW, I think that since Harrow believes that Amit judges people by everything they've done, and everything that they WILL DO, he walks on glass every day as penance for anything bad he might do in the future.
His powers don't cause his disordered but won't spoil anything. I'm glad moon knight is getting recognized he is a very complex character more so than batman honestly
This was the best Disney+ first episode of a series I've seen yet! Even though there are a lot of questions you're left with, they actually give you a LOT of information about the character and the world not only through the dialogue but through the characters' actions.
17:00 idk why but when nikki slapped steven's arm i almost spat out my drink 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 NIKKI PLZZZZZZZZ!! 😭😭😭 btw i had that same reaction with the glass in the shoe 😬😬😬
I absolutely loved being in Steven's POV in this episode! We got to feel the confusion, and went on this journey with him. It was only the first episode but I feel like it was well done! Can't wait for the rest of the season.
I've been a super fan of Moon Knight for years and I always wanted him to get his own show or movie. I'm so happy that his time has finally come and that everyone can see how fricken cool this character is. I love it. Thank you so much for making this reaction video! You two are awesome.
Only a couple minutes in and aww adorable kitty knew to come comfort Nikki! Good kitty! Now to watch more. Also please let the kitty know that I love them.
Apparently the gaps in memory are pretty accurate to systems who have Dissociative identity Disorder when another personality takes over. Also having difficulty with friendships and relationships. So that's neat! The use of mirrors for showing conversations between the alters is neat. Also, great reaction! Looking forward to more. 🙂
He has a split personality of Steven and Marc. Marc is already the Moon Knight and Steven thinks he just has a sleep walking problem, because he wakes up wherever Marc has been. Everything in the episode did happen and we’re just seeing one of Marc’s missions from the point of view of Steven as they constantly switch control.
I've come to love the Disney plus shows. As we finally begin to dive into Marvel phase 4 it will be great to see how these shows change the landscape of the MCU. Oscar Isaac killed it in this first episode, and it will be great seeing how Moon Knight fits in the large MCU, if at all.
I just click like..... when I see these 2 badasses.....no question I just loved the fact that Nikki and even sometimes Steven were rendered speachless because the series was so good.... and I love their voices
Thanks for your reactions on this first episode can’t wait to see the next episode and your reaction to it. RIP-Gus. ( didn’t realize it but another reaction channel mentioned because Steven was gone for two days Gus died from not being fed. Because of that Marc bought a new Goldfish for Stephen so he wouldn’t notice. But of course he Did!)
This is the first time I've noticed the stuffed spider behind you; he's adorable 😍 Does he have a name? Also, fun fact: in ancient Egyptian religion, Ammit did not judge people. Upon death, Anubis would use the scales to judge whether a heart was worthy (by weighing it against a feather from the goddess of truth). If it was unworthy... Anubis would toss the heart to Ammit to eat, leaving the soul restless for eternity. So here, it seems like they're going with "Ammit got tired of waiting for Anubis to toss her scraps and decided to get an avatar on Earth to judge -- and feed off -- hearts early", which is really cool. I hope (though I'm not holding my breath) they explore how Anubis feels about Ammit stealing his job...
I'm thinking it will turn out Ammit's actions threaten to cause chaos/mass destruction (because she's upsetting the natural order by doing something she isn't meant to) so the Egyptian gods are trying to stop her. Perhaps they entrusted Khonshu with that task and he in turn is acting through his avatar, namely Moon Knight.
And why won't Disney get with the times and release the entire show at once. Geez. This isn't the 50's. Give us the entire show at once. This is why you'll never overtake Netflix.
Something I loved is how they put us in the perspective of Steven throughout the entire episode. Because Marc is the main host body, and the one who was resurrected by Khonshu, it puts us the viewer in Steven’s shoes as if we’re experiencing his mental troubles and questioning of reality with him. Very genius imo. And I’m sure we’ll get to see Marc’s comic origin and becoming MK (or a version of it) through flashbacks. As someone who’s been a fan of Moon Knight for years, I was incredibly happy with how this first episode was, and love that they saved the suit reveal towards the end. Honestly gets a 10/10 from me
Marc is jumping outta the window instead of using the door and his disorder is causing him not to realize it and the fact that Konshu is roasting him throughout the episode is fucking hilarious. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He's not jumping out the window, he's using the door. He's just replacing all the "safety checks" before he lets Steven take over again, so Steven doesn't get suspicious. Same way he replaced Gus, who probably died after 2 days of not being fed.
Love this concept where the main character has no idea what’s going on. Kind of hope they continue with this as he starts to learn or figure out what’s going on. Like the time skips or waking up in random places. Also really loving the horror vibes in this episode
I was waiting for that chaos line and Steven didn't disappoint & neither did Nikki with her reaction. I felt the same way watching this, Steven. Reminded me of Memento soooo much. One of my top 10 favorite movies. Can't wait for the next episode & y'all reaction to it. Cheers
Not fully showing the monsters is so good, anyone who watched X-Files back in the day knows that. Our brains will imagine something more real and scary than CGI, with the benefit of saving them money on a TV show budget. Love it.
I’m hooked already, I suffer from amnesia due to a car accident I was in. I can relate to the main character here. I’m glad you guys are to watching it with me ❤✌🏼🍻
I'm so happy to watch this through your eyes. The confusion of you guys is just lovely. But also, later on you might want to google some stuff about a certain mental illness. It's quite fascinating and exists in real life. Obviously not like this in the superhero way, but yeah.
@@oduinn7948 I know that, but going by them having no clue of what's going on in this episode, I thought it pretty obvious that they don't know. And since I assume the show will expand on this, I wouldn't wanna be the one to explain everything.
@@oduinn7948 yeah, as the other person said they went into this blind didn't even read the episode description which says what his mental illness is. So his mental illness is a spoiler to them, probably.
What a performance from Oscar Isaac!! I legit had to look him up because I was sure he’s American…yup no one ever convinced me like that wow! Great reaction guys can’t wait for more
I'm constantly amazed at how certain other channels and their followers moan and whinge about these shows. Criticism is absolutely permitted but it's unbelievable what enormously creative shows and sheer amount of choice we have now. All they can do is moan. We had nothing like any of this once.
Harrow's magical ritual obviously draws upon things such as: blood, pain, endurance, possibly personal privation (same reason religious flagellants think they receive power or grace), or personal sacrifice. It's not common, but such things can be part of the Egyptian & Western (which was partially derived from Egypt) magical traditions/practices.
I grew up reading comics, but know nothing about Moon Knight, so I watched it just like you guys did. Always enjoy your reactions when I check in to your channel.
I knew Nikki would drop her first omg during the glass breaking scene. Going in blind is a perfect strategy. We get to feel what Steven is struggling with along the way.
Hey Nikki. I have a cat that lays on me just like that. Her paw has to be on my chest. Great reaction. I didn’t know what to expect with this show but I absolutely love it! I can’t wait for the next episode!
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.
IM SO HYPED NOT JUST FOR MOON KNIGHT BUT BECAUSE SO FAR THIS IS THE BEST PORTRAYAL OF DISSOCIATIVE IDENTITY DISORDER IVE EVER SEEN IN HOLLYWOOD ALL OF THE OTHERS HAVE BEEN VERY OFFENSIVE TOWARDS PEOPLE WITH THAT DISORDER!!!
I mean...Mr. Robot was better than this tbh. Or United States of Tara was also a very good one. But this isn't a bad one! Not like Split was. I hope they continue to represent it relatively accurately in this show.
I can't say I'm that familiar with the Moon Light material, but I do know Steven's character seems to be something new or adapted from the known personalities. What makes it clever is Moon Knight is already an established character, you're learning about it through Steven's own first experience and confusion. Absolutely loved the transitions between Steven being in control.
I know nothing about this character either and this was prolly the most confusing episode of TV I’ve ever seen 🤣 enjoying it so far, thanks for the reaction!
@@IceMetalPunk haha maybe I should have used different wording, I mean it was a very jarring first episode of tv, I love guessing while I watch stuff , but I guess that’s what their going for with this show and it’s style
all i remember about Moon Knight from the comics was his time in the West Coast Avengers. led by Hawkeye. included members recovering alcoholic Iron Man, Wonder Man, Mockingbird, and Tigra, with whom Moon Knight had a fling.
I know this is an old video but I loved this show. It might not be the best but I just genuinely loved every minute of it. I really hope they do a season 2 but I won't hold my breath.

Sadly that fish probably died too while Steven/Marc left to Egypt.

What a performance from Oscar Isaac!! I legit had to look him up because I was sure he’s American…yup no one ever convinced me like that wow! Great reaction guys can’t wait for more
I am loving this show. I've been reading Moonknight comics for years 😆👍
Same so glad the direction they took by using one of the secondary personalities instead of using Marc as the main one very interesting take
it's fantastic how people even me were just as confused as Steven when he blacked out....class show.
Love how excited y’all got throughout the episode. Looking forward to more reactions!
I'm constantly amazed at how certain other channels and their followers moan and whinge about these shows. Criticism is absolutely permitted but it's unbelievable what enormously creative shows and sheer amount of choice we have now. All they can do is moan. We had nothing like any of this once.
anyone who remembers 'only 3 channels to pick from' is have a great time right now...
At least Marc gets things done and doesn't act like a big sad like Wanda.
Harrow's magical ritual obviously draws upon things such as: blood, pain, endurance, possibly personal privation (same reason religious flagellants think they receive power or grace), or personal sacrifice. It's not common, but such things can be part of the Egyptian & Western (which was partially derived from Egypt) magical traditions/practices.
I love that you guys went into this blind. Moon Knight is such a cool Marvel character.
Hello, cute cat! So glad you're watching this
Saw them..... clicked like...no question.....they know....they rule my world
Writers: how much confusion we want?
Marvel: yes.
I grew up reading comics, but know nothing about Moon Knight, so I watched it just like you guys did. Always enjoy your reactions when I check in to your channel.
I knew Nikki would drop her first omg during the glass breaking scene. Going in blind is a perfect strategy. We get to feel what Steven is struggling with along the way.
Hey Nikki. I have a cat that lays on me just like that. Her paw has to be on my chest. Great reaction. I didn’t know what to expect with this show but I absolutely love it! I can’t wait for the next episode!
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.
pretty sure marc dying and being resurrected’s trauma is what caused steven to be “born”
I'm gonna call this "Nikki's slap of chaos"
Really intriguing first episode.
Agreed
I had no idea to what expect but I really liked the episode! I think this show will be pretty darn good!!
That slap on the hand😂😂
He is neither good or evil thats chaos for you, an extremely neutral force.
“My feet hurt!” 🤣
IM SO HYPED NOT JUST FOR MOON KNIGHT BUT BECAUSE SO FAR THIS IS THE BEST PORTRAYAL OF DISSOCIATIVE IDENTITY DISORDER IVE EVER SEEN IN HOLLYWOOD ALL OF THE OTHERS HAVE BEEN VERY OFFENSIVE TOWARDS PEOPLE WITH THAT DISORDER!!!
I mean...Mr. Robot was better than this tbh. Or United States of Tara was also a very good one. But this isn't a bad one! Not like Split was. I hope they continue to represent it relatively accurately in this show.
Oh to watch a show with your cat held tenderly in your arms lol
I can't say I'm that familiar with the Moon Light material, but I do know Steven's character seems to be something new or adapted from the known personalities. What makes it clever is Moon Knight is already an established character, you're learning about it through Steven's own first experience and confusion. Absolutely loved the transitions between Steven being in control.
I know nothing about this character either and this was prolly the most confusing episode of TV I’ve ever seen 🤣 enjoying it so far, thanks for the reaction!
You must not have watched Dark then lmao
Or Legion
Ahaha no I haven’t seen those tbh 😆
@@spencergadoury Yeah, definitely don't watch Legion if this confused you; you'll be totally lost the entire series 😂
@@IceMetalPunk haha maybe I should have used different wording, I mean it was a very jarring first episode of tv, I love guessing while I watch stuff , but I guess that’s what their going for with this show and it’s style
Beyond happy Nikki immediately called out Big Pimpin lmao
Finally watching the reaction! I so far am intrigued with this new show and I love Egyptian history!
all i remember about Moon Knight from the comics was his time in the West Coast Avengers. led by Hawkeye. included members recovering alcoholic Iron Man, Wonder Man, Mockingbird, and Tigra, with whom Moon Knight had a fling.
I've never heard of this show either, I'm going in this blind, too....but I love watching your reactions...:)
I am soo happy that "Oh hi mark" is a thing now for Nikki.
The Room reference had dying on the floor laughing
I know this is an old video but I loved this show. It might not be the best but I just genuinely loved every minute of it. I really hope they do a season 2 but I won't hold my breath.
