THE FANDOM ZONE 240: "The Friendly Type" Is Up!

 
"Well, as far as I know, the only melody Khonshu enjoys is the sound of pain."
-- Marc Spector, Moon Knight: "The Friendly Type"

Hello again, everyone! It's time for another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast!  This time, DJ Nik and I discuss "The Friendly Type", the third episode of the Marvel series Moon Knight, featuring Oscar Isaac as Steven Grant/Marc Spector, Ethan Hawke as Arthur Harrow, May Calamawy as Layla El-Faouly, and Gaspard Ulliel as Anton Mogart!

In this episode, DJ Nik and I talk about things like my Columbus Blue Jackets beating Nik's Montreal Canadiens, three writers not boding well for a script, Gaspard Ulliel dying from a brain injury following a skiing accident, Khalid Abdalla playing Dodi Fayed in The Crown, the large amount of infodump in the episode, the creative decision to show the Gods of Egypt through their human avatars, when Marvel Studios will likely reboot the Marvel Cinematic Universe to bring back characters like Captain America and Iron Man, some comics background on Anton Mogart the Midnight Man, the Easter egg of the giant clock hitting midnight, female versions of Moon Knight in Marvel Comics, the implication that Marc Spector was involved in the death of Layla's father, Marc and Steven starting to share control of Marc's body, Mr. Knight being able to turn back the night sky, the shoutout to Madripoor, Anton Mogart being the monkey in the wrench, Layla having underworld connections as a skill set, the choice of using modern Egyptian music as opposed to traditional Egyptian wailing, Marc finally starting to open up with Layla, my humble relationship tip that women prefer it when you're honest with them, Khonshu being a really bad trial prosecutor, Oscar Isaac's weird voice when acting possessed by Khonshu, wondering why Layla didn't download an astronomy app on her iPad instead of getting Khonshu turned into a small stone statue, Khonshu's version of the Bat Signal, wanting to see a solo Moon Knight movie, the Dead Boy Detectives TV series getting picked up by HBO Max, new Fandom Zone Fanmail from Jesse Jackson and Holly Mac, Nik returning to Next Stop Everywhere to discuss "Legend of the Sea Devils", and more!
