Moon Knight - SPOILERS

[pukunui]

Finally sat down and watched the first episode. That was fantastic!

The idea that Ethan Hawke's character walks around with broken glass in his shoes is nuts!

Looking forward to the next one.

That opening scene nearly did me in . . . oof, hard to watch!

One of the best intros to a guy I have seen in a while. Within 1 minute you knew how both methodical and dedicated this guy was.

My first thought was "Wait, is this seriously how they're introducing the villain of this show? Wow. They really are!"

It's amazing how one scene like that, which had no dialogue, was able to convey so much about a character in such a short amount of time.

I noticed the too-nice apartment myself, although that's very Hollywood. Not sure if they'll explain it, but in my head, I decided Mark takes care of Steven . . . replacing dead goldfish, subsidizing a nice apartment, asking hot tour guides out on dates . . .

Yes, the flat would be insanely expensive, but there are lots of ways to explain how Steven came to have it, especially given his strange background.

I didn't think the interior was as well researched as some of the London things though. I worked in buildings in walking distance of the British Museum, and they are mostly converted Victorian townhouses, with high ceilings, lots of light, and twisty floorplans.

too nice?

Everything was worn and faded. The flooring didn't even have any gloss or stain left.

This is classic Hollywood slum house where nobody has the money for a bucket of paint.

Now I'm sure even that is too expensive in real world money for a gift shoppist to afford, but I wouldn't call it nice

Well, he is a bus commute away.

We get a brief glimpse of the area outside his building, but I couldn't spot anything that would place it more precisely than "fairly central London".

Yeah, the thing looks like someone's spare attic space.

Some might say "dedicated". Others might say, "dangerously fanatical".

Which is the problem. If you could afford a flat in that location, you could easily afford to have first rate interior décor!

I thought it looked like it might be around Seven Dials, or maybe Soho. Either of which you could walk or bus to the BM, depending on how energetic you felt.
