I guess thats the thing adaptations are always gonna feel the need to leave out shit for the sake of simplicity and I get it in some cases but if it gets to like “well we need to focus on his DID and dont have time to go into him being Jewish : (” well the comics had plenty of time for both in the same runs so maybe cut out some other shit!

#and yeah whatever years of character history vs 6 episodes of a show but the MacKay runs doing fine talking about both !#It doesnt have to be fucking one or the other what is this!#And I KNOW why they did that its because they wanted to do the fucking Lemire run in season 1 #Because everybody knows the Lemire run and they didnt think to just change the fact that it skirted by the impact Marc's religious-#-upbringing had on him (because the Lemire run also kind of made this mistake and was also relying on #the reader knowing the characters previous history. But I think its a flaw with it)#its a weirdly common take in general with Moonknight that you cant focus on one aspect of the character without leaving out the others and-#I think its a bad take.
