Subscribe to the NEW CHANNEL for more Pitch Meetings: / @pitchmeetings
Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is going all-in on the Disney Plus shows. From Wandavision, to Hawkeye, to Falcon and the Winter Soldier, they’re really pumping things out. The latest show on the slate was Moon Knight, starring Oscar Isaac as several versions of Oscar Isaac!
Moon Knight definitely raises a few questions. Like how much do we actually see Moon Knight in the Moon Knight how? How was it so easy for Harrow to convince the gods that he’s innocent? Why didn’t they just use an iPhone map to check the star map? When is death actually fatal in the MCU? Who knew it was that easy to escape from the afterlife?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Moon Knight! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

I do really appreciate how Ryan doesn't mock the fantasy aspects of ancient Egyptian religion like the anthropomorphisized animal gods, the Duat, or the Field of Reeds. He does joke about how strange and silly it can be, but he doesn't imply that it's stupid or too weird for general audiences.

[@Ambar42]

Why should he, though? Most of entertainment is made up of mythological fantasy.

[@danielled8665]

True and this was so much more accurate to the mythology than that movie literally called "Gods of Egypt" where almost no one was Egyptian, Set was Scottish, and almost no cool animal heads in sight. Except Anubis he did a great job.

[@DeathnoteBB]

@@Ambar42 He… he shouldn’t. That’s their point. Some people do and they appreciate that Ryan has the sense to not.

[@Ambar42]

@@DeathnoteBB Err... yes. I know. Either you have to read my comment again or you don't know what the sentence "Why would he?" means. Edit: Ok, maybe because I accidentally wrote "should" instead of "would". Not that you can't get the sentence without the right word but still: my bad.

[@DeathnoteBB]

@@Ambar42 Ah. Well to that I still say, sadly people do. Cinemasins is the example I have off the top of my head. In the Moana video he mocks the drum in the movie because “that barely looks like a drum.” Apparently assuming all of history has only had one kind of drum. So I also appreciate Ryan for apparently doing even some research into the religion, since a lot of it is less confusing with context, like the reed field and animal gods. Meanwhile Cinemasins can’t bother to research drums.

@@thedreamscripter4002 I'd love to see a one take scene, possibly also used in the trailer for season 2 (assuming we get season 2), where we get to see the entire fight between Jake Lockley and how he defeats Harrow and his men. The scene starts with Jake Lockley escaping from Harrow (while unmasked) and knocking Harrow to the ground as he gets to his feet. He turns to look at at Layla, as the hood manifests itself over Jake's head (we only get to see it from behind). The camera is now positioned over Moon Knight's shoulder, and we see him throw deadly projectiles from his cape at the men covering Layla, killing them instantly. The camera then moves towards Layla who manages to free herself, and turns to look at Moon Knight who is now beating up Harrow (similar to him beating up the Jackal in the first episode and trailer). He stops, and slowly turns around to reveal Jake Lockley's suit as the comic book black and white suit.
