Moon Knight - 1x6 Gods and Monsters - Group Reaction 

Jake is the Protector alter. Jake is most likely created as an alter to take the beatings. He comes out when Marc feels defeated, trapped, unable to escape...extreme trauma.

For a 44 minute finale, I think it was a pretty great way to wrap this season up. It’s open-ended with Steven and Marc thinking they’re living normal lives but Jake is screwing everything up. If there was a Season 2, it can explore that dynamic over another six episodes which I would be fine with.

16:38 fun fact. Bast (wakandan)/Bastet (Egyptian) has her avatars. The black panthers.

The face reaction when he turned around, yup that's Jake. Goddamn, Oscar Isaac's acting is so chef kiss he better win an Emmy for his incredible acting! By the way, great reaction guys. 🔥

He killed the Avatars, not the gods themselves. He stated that the those Avatars were just judges (not warriors) so they had no idea how to fight, like Harrow and Marc are specifically fighters.

It's worth noting that in the comics, Khonshu's relationship with the other gods is pretty different. He's actually by far the most powerful of them, as he has existed for far longer, and was originally a god of time before he became the Egyptian god of revenge and the moon. The only Egyptian god who could even remotely face him was Ra, and he did so. They battled many times over the millennia, but no matter how close it got, Khonshu always won. That is why Moon Knight is the most powerful of the avatars, at the expense of his sanity.

Harrow is so dangerous because he truly believes in all of this. He's wholeheartedly *willing* to die if Ammit calls for it

Rana introducing herself in Arabic is everything! ❤

Harrow didn't kill the Gods. He killed their avatars , just like khonchu was still alive when marc died momentarily. It was explained in earlier episodes that the other gods left earth long time ago after choosing their avatars who would their eyes and ears to observe. Since all avatars were dead those gods had to choose new avatars and there wasn't enough time that's why osiris avatar said the only way is to make more avatars, layla released khonchu and osiris (the god, the avatar) opened up the gates between afterlife and physical worlds so marc / steven's soul can return back (as tawaret exclaimed "oh osiris you soft heart") and once it came did momentarily and was able to heal as marc is tha avatar of khonchu and he had already been released

The reason they don’t release the other god is the same reason why you don’t bust all the people out of prisoner to fight a villain you don’t know their loyalties

Loved this show so much!

Steven remembers the good life Mark remembers the yelling and pain (emotional) Jake took the beating hence more he is more violent

Me, watching this with my family: “Wow. Their stunt double is eating this up” …Oscar Isaac seriously had me referring to him as two different people.

HIPPO! \😄/

The latest I heard is that there isn't a final decision on season two but previously, Mohamed Diab said in March that he felt the character would be part of the MCU for the next ten years, and expressed his hope that Moon Knight would eventually get his own feature film.

Moon Knight episodes ranked 1. 1x06: "Gods and Monsters" 2. 1x05: "Asylum" 3. 1x04: "The Tomb" 4. 1x01: "The Goldfish Problem" 5. 1x02: "Summon the Suit" 6. 1x03: "The Freindly Type"

if you remember earlier in a season when they first introduced the council gods,they said how they didn't have trust in the humans and how they rejected the humans so they basically used the humans just as Avatar just as their mouth and their eyes. So it makes sense why they didn't empower their avatars with the power and why konshu and Ammit always stood out as outsiders amongst the gods

This finale was pretty well rounded I think, nice action; bit of emotion, and the wrap up of Arthur harrow, then the introduction of Jake lockley, massive props to Oscar Isaac for a world beater performance with this series too!

The Psych ward is just pretty much his conscience, his internal thoughts.

Just for those unaware: Jake Lockley isn't Spanish, he is a New York cab driver who is more violent/aggressive than both Marc and Steven. That being said, he does know how to speak Spanish, but he is supposed to have more of a New Yorker accent when talking English. [Same as how Steven talks with a very English accent]

Oscar x 3 for an Emmy! No doubt about it. Jake is the one that truly makes Moon Knight menacing and a worthy candidate to form the Midnight Sons (if the adaptation does evening happen). Marc and Steven can kiss and make up all they want.

I agree with Mickey, I'm good with this, it was like reading a comic. I'd love a Season 2 to see more of Jake and Layla's stories.

Layla's costume is one of the coolest superhero outfits I've seen in years.

From the comics, the Egyptian Superhero was named Scarlet Scarab.

guessing the next time we'll see Moon Knight will be in the Werewolf By Night special coming to Disney+ in October. and more Layla as Scarlet Scarab in the MCU immediately.

Did anyone get flashbacks when Konshu was like..Rise! And Live again... to Gargoyles. WE LIVE AGAIN!!!

They totally trolled us with the 'ending,' until the post-credits scene lol. Would have loved more time in the finale, but for the 40+ minutes they had, really enjoyed it.

We have to take into consideration that Marc and Layla are actually skilled fighters, whereas the other avatars in the Enead were most likely not chosen for their combat capabilities, nor would they have been trained by their respective deity in that regard unless they were "vengeance" seekers like Khonshu. Plus, I think Ammit's power would be stronger than the other gods since it took all (even more than who we saw as the current Enead) of their combined efforts to seal her in the past.

Protector: You are right that with DID, there is often a protector personality and that's not Steven. Marc created Steven on that day to be the good boy, free of blame, guilt or memory of his Roro's death; also free of any memory of the abuse--which is important! Notice how Marc pushes Steven out before he sees the beating, so Steven's memory of their mother remains free of that. But Marc also leaves before he sees it...which means neither of them gets to see the creation of the protector identity who Marc also probably brought to life that day: Jake. Someone tough and mean who can't be hurt or broken by his mother's emotional or physical abuse. Up to that point, Marc took the beatings, but after that, I'd bet it was Jake, with Marc waking up, as he does, from a black out.

21:54 man i just realized that Mark's fish swam right while Steven's swam unbalanced

About the avatars being destroyed by Harrow so easily, isn’t it established in stories usually that gods are only as powerful as the faith people have in them? I think Ammit even mentioned that Khonsu was low on it; it makes sense for Harrow to objectively be the strongest avatar when He’s spent so long assembling a little cult of Ammit worshippers lol. Only Layla and Marc/Steven “believe” in Khonsu

When Jake become the avatar it must be the best R rated fight scene, Marc was on the ground and Jake comes out then knocks Harrowe out! He must have absorbed ALL the violence in their life and that is why JAKE was the one to really make the deal with Konshu. We need an R rated movie.

The third property will be the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series! Mark my words its gonna be huge for Disney Plus

Well tbh, as Harrow said the other Avatars aren't warriors and had no combat experience and Harrow attacked them before they had the chance too do anything. I wish he just put then into stone or just cut their ties with their Gods. Death was not needed. This was the best MCU Disney + show by far for me. My ranking so far 1. Moon Knight 2. Hawkeye 3. Falcon and the Winter Soldier 4. WandaVision 5. What if? 6. Loki

Disney’s gonna throw every cent they have at Oscar Isaac to keep this fire burning, and I can’t wait!

During the credits sequence You can actually see Jake's Moonknight suit if you pause at the right time. When the suits are changing. Idk if anyone else noticed. Dope reaction, i was also mind blown at the end.

The Ammit and Khonsu`s Kaiju Battle was manificient . Khonshu is the God of gaslighting. Switching between Moon Knight and Mr. Knight in the fight scenes was badass. Moon Knight, Mr. Knight, and Layla vs. Arthur Harrow were extraordinary scenes. Layla's superhero suit looked marvelous. Give Oscar Issac's all the Emmy awards. I loved the limo and Khnoshu's tailor suit in easter eggs in the post-credits. This limo comes from the comics, specifically the 2014 Knights of the Moon series by Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey, and Jordie Bellaire. Well, Khonshu is visiting Mr. Knight's tailor! The image of Khonshu in costume frequently appeared in Jeff Lemire and Greg Smallwood's 2016 series Moon Knight, which provided much of the inspiration for this television series. Overall, I enjoyed the Moon Knight TV series. My favorite part of this episode was Layla rescuing the Egyptian girl and she asked Are you an Egyptian superhero? The Layla and Taweret team-up was also amazing. Jake Lockley was giving me hit-man vibes. The shot of Moon Knight flying into the Moon was dope. Hippo!!

Steven protects the mental & Jake protects the physical when Mark can’t handle it.

Steven said he always thinks about *killing* his boss but wouldn't actually do it so what if it's Steven who created Jake to handle this sorta stuff.

oh my God Jake was shown in the office, they have been showing Jake in multiple episodes talking to Harrow with a New York Accent

13:38 "I will release you *both*" Slick, Khonshu.

I know nothing about Moon Knight...but, I do think the third personality was probably created to cope with his mercenary work, some sort of DID PTSD hybrid (which would make for a pretty effective killer with zero feelings). I don't think he knows the mom, I don't think he keeps close contact with everyone. I think he's truly a lone wolf (who apparently asks tour guides out, probably just for "fun").

I love how this 6 episode mind adventure went and only took the end credit scene for Jake the 3rd the great to kill Harrow and Ammit lol.

From what I take it the Gods that are in the Overvoid and their Avatars aren’t as powerful as if their they were in the same realm like Khonshu/Ammit and their Avatars. The Gods didn’t die, just their Avatars. And then for Ammets sealing, they used the same ritual as when they force them into stone, but they trapped her in flesh. From what I heard Ammet Godly Spirit isn’t DEAD, her ‘Death’ just forces her out of this plane and back to either Duat or to the Overvoid to be punished by the other Gods. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤯🧠 They really didn’t do a good job with the other gods and avatars but oh well, that Jake Lockley reveal was worth it!! I love that they made Jake either rich (like Steven is in the comics) or he’s a limo driver instead of a cab driver

I used to think Pat was the “only-action” guy who only liked spectacle over substance when it came to movies/TV shows but is it just me or has he become more deeper in his film critique? His point earlier in the vid about how he thought Steven was the original and Marc was the alter was well put-together.

They already explained the psych ward, it's a representation of the place you go before afterlife.

Marvel isn't the first to inject comedy into a serious moment. Shakespeare famously did it as well and it was his way of appeasing unruly audiences that didn't enjoy serious moments. If you're going to copy anyone, might as well copy the GOAT of capturing an audiences attention. And good writing has peaks and valleys, you cant have a super serious 2 hour film and still expect to draw massive audiences. Read a comic or watch an indy film if you want that. Stay in school, kids

so the third personality killed Layla’s dad?? 🤔. I thing so. by the way, you can see Jake in costume at the ending part of the credits, you see jake then marc the steven

Don’t forget guys that Konshu was shunned because he refused to give up his presence in our world. The other gods essentially retired once Ancient Egypt fell. So I believe he and his Avatar are more powerful. They haven’t spent time on earth in a long long time.

-Harrow doesn't kill the gods, just their avatars. And its not surprising they were defeated so easily. We were told they were just used to observe. Also we know the gods are drawn to specific characteristics, for lack of a better word, that will make them a good avatar for that particular God. So it stands to reason that the gods who are there are not looking at fighting ability, a strong sense of Justice, or balance scales. -The stand in is actually Oscar Isaac's brother. - You do not know why those other gods were imprisoned. So releasing them would be a horrible idea. There could be someone worse than Ammit. -Ammit was trapped in Harrow's body. Similarly to being in the statue but mortal. She has no powers to tap into. -I think there is a strong chance when we saw Marc and Steven in the apartment. It was hinting that Jake was doing them as Marc had been doing Steven in the beginning

Moon Knight isn't done. He's a member of the Midnight Sons. Along with Blade, The Black Knight, Ghost Rider, Doctor Strange, etc. You've got 4 members set to go. Werewolf by Night and a few more comes later this year. Morbius was also in there but that depends on Sony.

Rena is so beautiful 😍 Egyptian goddess I want to marry her 💍

Spidey I've never had falafel either but omg Rana's shocked face. . Priceless

Oscar can fucking act!!!!

18:24 First thing I thought when I saw this is, "Oh, this is gonna make Rana SO happy!" 😁🏆

Runa's "wait what?" Needs to be a meme

I'm glad they decided to make it a season finale, rather than a series finale. Oscar Isaa'cs performance is just too great, to have it only be for one.

Oke oke, before seeing this chapter i really hope Mark could keep some of the brittish expressions of Steven. I need a scene with both moonknight and spidey argeuing about real sheesh in brittish

After rethinking i dont think it was rushed, i think it was perfect just the way it was. We have to remember that this was mainly to focus on Steven and Marc's relationship and their trauma together. And that's what happened we went through all of it. Hopefully if theres another season they will introduce more of Jake and how he became an ulter. 🤌🏾 Probably the only issue i had was the end credit but then again Jack may not have killed him? 🤔 if they did damn i really enjoyed Ethan Hawk in this show. I loved the combination fight Marc and Steven working 👏🏾 was SO good! Lastly, I NEED MORE OF Taweret and Layla. GIVE THEM THIER OWN SERIES PLEASE 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Jacks lockley everyone

Similar to WandaVision this show is more enjoyable watching it a second time

How do you feel about the names, Iron Man, SpiderMan, Superman, Antman...? And you think Moon Knight is dumb? Ok doooood.

Scarab beetle is actually super fast when flying unlike falcon.. But it make more sense if they go on "the butterfly" path with layla because it aligned more with tawerer powers

Season Finale Moon Knight and gonna watch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness today... what a Crazy Week for Marvel Fans

I have yet to find any conformation that Moon Knight is getting a second season. From what I hear Disney made it a limited series so it could be nominated for an award in that category. However that doesn't mean they can't change their mind.

Bro her we go finale time moon knight for life

I think that was everyone's reaction... When it ended I was like "I don't know how I feel about this... I... I think I hate this" after the end credits scene "LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

The 3rd personality was always there. Remember in episode one when Steven woke up somewhere in Europe the first time Khonshu ever spoke he said: Khonsu: "Go back to sleep, worm. You're not supposed to be here... surrender the body to Marc". Steven: "What body?" Khonshu: "Oh no, The idiot is in control". Why did Khonshu phrase his last line that way given that he already mentioned one of the personas by name "Marc"? It's because when Khonshu said "worm" he was addressing the 3rd personality that he thought was in control, and when he realized it's neither the 3rd personality not Marc he then said "the idiot" and he was addressing Steven.

The Thiccopotmus has an avatar!

"The name 'Moon Knight' is slightly cooler now, but it's still kinda dumb." What would you rather he be called? White Knight? Captain Moon? Mummy Man? NIGHT KNIGHT???

Killing avatars, not gods.

The avatar council got trounced by Ammet because, as they had previously stated, they were only observers. Moon Knight, and now Scarlet Scarab are warriors.

To all the people who were saying stuff like "that wasn't Jake last episode, the author already confirmed he wasn't in the series🤓" congratualtions, you played yourself.

honestly when he says to steven "you are the only real super power I ever had" I wept. First real show that actually in a weird way shows the power that comes from loving yourself and not some perfect second person or family member.

Chris and Marketa have one of the worst timed vacations

Rana speaking her native tounge.....HOTTTTTTTTT

This was the best episode of the series and the best Marvel TV series I NEEEEEEED MOON KNIGHT SEASON 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ammmit's hair is EVERYTHING!!! also Braids with charms on them, not Dreads

I feel like they could’ve used another episode to spread the finale out a bit, as it felt very rushed, and the world ending stakes were barely present. I would like to spend some time watching Ammit causing real devastation, and dive deeper into Mark and Steven uniting and coming back to fight. Idk, the show was so great, and the ending was good, but not as good as the previous episodes.

Khonshu is the only Egyptian god that still believe in having a avatar warrior, the rest of the Egyptian gods have given up on humanity and just got avatars to be their eyes while they do not interfere, Khonshu was exiled for meddling with humanity, and that is why Harrow (Former Khonshu warrior avatar & currently Ammits avatar) kills them so easily.

In the comics his dad actually sent him to a physchiatric ward for his DID which is why I think he created a fake psychiatric hospital in the underworld. My assumption is that based off of the comics Jake was created as a defender to fight the Nazi serial killer so his personality has no remorse killing cause that’s what he was created for. Whereas Steven was more a protector to cope with his trauma.

I WANT MORE MOONKNIGHT!! DAMN SHOW IS LIT

I think it's safe to say that this is the best marvel series on disney+ so far

@The Normies, 3:18 Marc is the one Wendy birthed into the world. He's the original one, and Steven said last week "you made me up," so I see no problem with you saying he's the made up one or not the real one--Steven felt that way too. The thing is, Marc accepts Steven. Steven filled the void Randall left, and from what the story seems to be pointing to, made Marc fill whole again. Steven never had a heart/soul since he's a creation of Marc's trauma. 3:49 is it though? Marc manifested his childhood hero to be his protector. When danger is near, Steven Grant has no fear--we see him roleplay as his childhood hero with his little brother! I pretended to be whatever hero was popular during my childhood, and it looks like Marc did the same. Steven was a bad ass in his movie, Steven was a little different, sure, but that's probably because his nemesis was his mother and he couldn't (wouldn't) fight her. 4:28 Obviously, you haven't seen the episode yet, so you might have already come to this conclusion, but Steven likely wasn't the only one created that day. Steven was charged with protecting Marc and Marc's innocence, which he could only half do. Steven has no memory of their abusive mother, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's later revealed that that's when Jake came into the picture and took the hits. I also wouldn't be surprised if Jake is another alter based on a different action hero, maybe something their mother liked. Wendy's abusive nature forged an actual killer and a tank, Jake Lockley...maybe. We'll have to wait and see where the story goes with in the future, but with Steven being designed around a movie character, I wouldn't be surprised if Jake is based around a Spanish speaking assassin. 8:47 To be fair, Khonshu came to them with NO proof. And the person he accused was the avatar he abused, so I'm not mad at them for disregarding Khonshu's claim--he was the boy that cried wolf. 11:23 Steven filled the void Randall left Marc. Steven is his brother now. In the eyes of the god, Steven is nothing, but a part of Marc that must return from where it came. Steven's death made Marc whole again. Marc placing his own heart in Steven's hand was beautiful; he was willing to share his life with Steven as an equal. 14:00 Arthur gave them the chance to step aside. He said that they were judges, implying that they were not warriors, thus no match for him, and we saw how that played out, not well. Osiris is the god of the afterlife. Ammit is called the devourer of the dead, lol. Osiris had the last laugh though didn't he? As god of the afterlife, he allowed Marc to return, thus defeating Ammit in the end. 16:59 Rick James? LOL! 17:29 O'koye, Shuri, Nakia or Ayo? Which one? 17:35 Kendo doesn't have sticks. Those are escrima sticks, a weapon used in a martial arts from the Philippines. 18:27 Best moment in the reaction right here. Look at Runa's face, man. The joy! 19:26 Jake uses whatever he's got. In the alps he used what Steven had on hand, which was nothing. In Cairo he had what Steven had on hand, which was again nothing. Now that it is Marc who was in trouble, he used what Marc had which was Khonshu's ceremonial robes and dude wrecked $#!+. The fact that Layla asked Marc if he was himself should tell you that he did that as he is. There was no transformation and whoever did that didn't hesitate, the hesitation to kill Arthur is when Layla ceased being gobsmacked to ask who was standing before her. Jake might be the Dexter Morgan of the three. I loved your reaction, but Runa's excitement steals the show =D Edit: Needed to correct a name. My bad m(_ _)m

Jake finally introduced, Khonshu still playin games, Marc & Steven have become 1, Scarlet Scarab is going to be Layla :O that was some fire shit I did not expect, and Rana in is Red. Solid finale and reaction xD

Saddest thing is that this is a limited series and we won't get a S2

Hey guys :D just letting you know that there's a high pitched sound its quiet compared to other audio but super high pitched going through your whole reaction. idk if its Mic set up or something in the editing but its constant and makes it hard to listen to you guys chat before and after. the show sounds drown out the tinny high pitched sound doing reaction. but if you listen before and after with good headphones it hurts... my headphones are fine with any other media.

Odd thought, if Marc and Layla hook up, is that like 3 way? 4 way? Do the gods count? How very confusing.

Man, Ammit is pretty hot to me actually 😂

The 3rd one has been there from the beginning. Just need to pay attention. Who do you think asked that girl at the museum for the date? Steven didn't and Marc wouldn't so it had to be Jake.

Just imagine 5 people who never fought---or even held a weapon---in their lives. Now pitch them against a trained killer with a couple decades of experience. Even if they are all armed the same, who do you think would win and how long would it take? This is exactly what happened in the pyramid.

Also, that moment when Teweret was talking through the dead guy reminded me of Lucifer. They did that a couple times there.

those action sequences are awesome, the fact that they are really doing the stunts on their own especially with costume is insane, if only you have seen Oscar Isaacs training, he really put his heart into it and learned different martial arts!, and to see his Jake Lockley was insane!, as if there are three persons acting more like triplet brothers... i hope he can get an emmy award for this and i would love to see if there are season 2 or a movie here!

I Really Like This Episode Good Acting Good Fight Scene Good Sad/Happy Scenes And Lastly The Third Best Post Credit Scene I Do Think Episode 5 Is Better Though

I think the gods' avatars were easily taken out because the human hosts were judged and deemed evil so the avatar died

20:56 Actually he didn't. His scale still balance at this point. According to Ammit. 24:16 Ammit was bound. She can't use her power at all. You seriously thought the Gods would bound Ammit in there if she can still use her power.🤦🏻‍♀️

IT HAS BEGAN!!!!!!!! This is going to be great!!!!!

i love how jake lockley is like a mafioso muscle man. he's like the marvel version of arthur shelby

In the early episodes, most likely all the transitions into the dead ppl we seen were probably by Jake not Marc right?

Hope we get a lot more Moon Knight…and hopefully Marc & Steven still have their powers
