Moon Knight #15

After the internal meeting of all three of Moon Knight‘s personalities in the last issue, issue #15 catches up with Marc Spector at his psychiatrist where he explains the new status quo of each version of himself getting time in control and all three using their various skill sets to help Moon Knight’s cause and telling his people about his condition. Honestly, it’s about the healthiest Moon Knight has looked in some time with Steven Grant hitting the high end and Jake Lockley in the back alleys and dive bars.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law – Episode 5

  • Title: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law – Mean, Green, and Straight Poured into These Jeans
  • IMDb: link

We don’t get any super-heroing here, and although Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) goes back to court it’s as a defendant rather than a lawyer. Our lead is incredibly passive throughout the episode except for one brainstorm where she comes up with a plan that utterly embarrassing herself in court (which, to be honest, isn’t really all that embarrassing) to win the case and control of the name She-Hulk from Titania (Jameela Jamil). The only other subplot are generic jokes of men being stupid and She-Hulk being dragged to get a new wardrobe she doesn’t really want which doesn’t even pay-off on-screen in the episode other than a tease for the eventual introduction of another character.

Pinocchio

  • Title: Pinocchio (2022)
  • IMDb: link

Beloved by fans and critics alike, although 1940’s Pinocchio may feel a be dated in spots there is nothing about the film that calls for a new version of the story (let alone three in one year – including one with Pauly Shore?!). However, Disney (in all its wisdom) has chosen Pinocchio for the latest “live-action” adaption of one of their classic animated films (featuring multiple CGI characters, of course). The results are a longer running time, an unnecessary backstory for Geppetto (Tom Hanks) that never leads anywhere, and far less magic.

Little Demon – Possession Obsession

  • Title: Little Demon – Possession Obsession
  • wiki: link

Using what her father (Danny DeVito) taught her, Chrissy (Lucy DeVito) starts to employ possession, at first for the thrill but later in an attempt to help people. The episode fits into the theme of Chrissy learning about abilities she’ll then struggle with in her everyday life. Her efforts are stymied both by the town’s growing unrest at all the unexplained behavior and losing her own body temporarily to her father’s rival. “Possession Obsession” offers lots of body swapping and eventually a bloody public spectacle (raising the question whether or not the whole town realizes the antichrist is living amongst them).
