I'll buy any Cruise figure I can get my hands on. The man's a legend.

You boomers can keep your Ahnuld dollies. I'm going to buy my... non-existent Cruise figures... Bah, hope dies last. I reckon we'll get Iron Cruise within the decade when Secret Wars becomes a reality. Real CruiseChads don't give up!

Might as well ask for a Sanford & Son figure:

Hey, I've got Pope Jude Law in my Ultimate Wishlist, so...

If one doesn’t watch the post credits you will walk away pissed off and confused lol

Are we talking about the midcredit scene or there's something else at the end?

PS: I liked this bit from the episode.

Spoiler

She'd make for a pretty cool figure, but it'll never happen.

I still do feel the story could do without Layla. Either way, if she stays, I guess Falcon has to share the bird-like wings space.

I've said it above that the entire series could've been a 2.5 hour movie easily, but what can you do. As far as useless love interests or [current day] girlbosses go, I didn't mind Layla. I liked her, all things considered. She's just a reworked Marlene, and I can't say I'm mad they changed her a bit.

After reading much fan rage with the finale, SOOO glad I didn't bother with this...

Just finished it and I’d put it in my top 5 Marvel adaptations. *Shrug*

It was everything I wanted adapted from the Moon Knight comics I read.

This show didn't really grab me. I didn't really think it had much of a point. Nearly all of the MCU has been connected at this point, so for this one to be standalone was ... different.

It's just odd that the MCU is getting to the point where there's so much of it, it can't always appeal to everyone all the time. I don't read ALL the Marvel comics, so why should I expect to see ALL the Marvel TV shows/movies?

You really don’t, and that’s okay.

The movies and comics have wildly different themes and tones. Squirrel Girl is a totally different animal (no pun intended) from Daredevil, which tells different stories than Fantastic Four, which are different from Ghost Rider, which is quite unlike Captain America, which is a different flavor than Guardians of the Galaxy.

The content has bounced from backdrops of space sci-if, high fantasy, monster movies, old war movies, teen dramas, rom-coms, heist movies, espionage thrillers, crime procedurals, sitcoms, horror films, and kung-fu origins. Those were never meant to appeal to all people, but they all do have an audience.

So are his parties.

So are his parties.

Everything about the Cruise is legendary!

I would get all Cruise figures too. A dedicated line would be great, all the different Ethan Hunts.

I love the Cruise but I'd never buy a character I'm not invested in, no matter the actor. But I'd be in for Lestat, Jack from Oblivion, Cage from Edge Of Tomorrow and Mav from Top Gun. Then again, these things cost ~300€ each now, so I really should stop saying "I'd buy that" when in reality I mean "if I had infinite money and space it'd be cool". Just trying to figure out my X-Men shelf for the coming decade is a nightmare, let alone trying to figure out my favourite one-offs.

I'd buy a (Louis and) Lestat (and Iron Cruise if he ever happens) no matter what though.

Prefer to form my own opinions personally, I loved this show and plenty of other people seem to too

 

[nexus]

I really liked this series. I'd been lukewarm when it was announced, but it's probably my favorite MCU Dis+ to date. Can't please everyone.

 

[matticus]

Wait until Ms. Marvel releases. Then they will appreciate Moon Knight like they should.

 

[chrisstbh]

I’d love to know what Ammit considers an evil deed though cause that was a lot of people killed

I am quite apathetic about this show. I didn't like it, but didn't hate it either. It just didn't make me feel anything. It was just content. Another D+ entry that only convolutes the MCU and makes it harder to keep up with.

Mostly forgetable for me. There is no denying Oscar Isaac did a great job though.

 

[Wor-Gar]

So how was the finale? And what does it have to do with Tom Cruise?

Exactly. It was just there for me, and I've been an MK fan for decades. Loki remains the only D+ series I've enjoyed. But yeah, as always Isaac did a great job.

So how was the finale? And what does it have to do with Tom Cruise?

Everything is improved if you add some Cruise!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Everything is improved if you add some Cruise!

Not Star Wars. Not Indiana Jones. Not James Bond. Not Pirates. Not LOTR. Not Die Hard. Not Batman.

Maybe only a Jurassic Park sequel and a John Wick sequel. He might fit into the Matrix too, now.

Cruise isn't even in the gif you chose...
