Moon Knight being directed and produced by Mohamad Diab, an Egyptian-Arab, SHOWS and it is so important:

-The music is amazing. Having Arabic music in a Marvel show and in the main stream was such a pleasent surprise. None of the orientalist sterotypical crap either. There's many songs and different genres used, fitting the scenes they are put in perfectly. They literally put Arabic music OVER THE MARVEL INTRO! They used real songs from real egyptian and Arab artists and the score is made by an Egyptian composer, Hesham Nazih

Episode 2 credits

Song: El Melouk (meaning the Kings) - Ahmed Saad

-No ugly yellow filter that is shown in most western movies and shows when in the middle east or countries such as mexico to show them as "hot, dusty and foreign". Instead when in Egypt the natural looking lighting is kept and the country is shown with It's beauty, and not just in the dessert:

-The language! In most western movies and shows they have very clearly foreign people "speaking arabic" and im supposed to believe their characters know the language when in reality it is not understandable and it is done horribly. Dont get me started on Eternals where there is a whole speech in "arabic" with not a single word correctly said. At least ad lib it.

But in Moon Knight most of the arabic is said by people who can actually speak arabic or well enough by non arabic speakers. The Arabic language and dialects are correct. They also included some Coptic. Oscar Isaac has one line in Arabic and he said it perfectly, sounded like a native. Ethan Hawke had a few that were very accented but still understandable and better than 95% of non arabs pretending to know the language.

-The character of Layla El-Faouly is essential. We needed an Egyptian (secondary) protagonist in this story that is set often in Egypt and based heavily in Egyptian mythology. She is the FIRST Arab female character in the MCU (long overdue tbh) . And the actress herself, May Calamawy, is Palestinian-Egyptian:

The show is doing amazing in authentic representation and avoiding orientalism and sterotypes
