Loki (Disney+ Series) ***NOW DEALING WITH SEASON 2!***
 
I didn't see a thread so screw it. This was probably the one production I was least interested in but what else are we going to do under the circumstances? It's got an odd vibe to it and I'm not really a fan of 'alternate timeline' stories but Tom Hiddleston really just owns this. He can probably do this role in his sleep at this point. The animation with 'Miss Minutes' that explains the situation is probably the greatest thing. There's enough to keep me watching so let's see how this goes, huh?

Lock Jaw 06-10-2021 09:31 AM

Nice production design but seeming the most "unnecessary" show so far. Of course it's only been one episode.

Lock Jaw 06-10-2021 09:39 AM

Also, mighty convenient that a Gamora who comes from the past isn't a time variant, but a Loki that comes from the past is.

Maybe that's where she vanished off to at the end of Endgame.

Lock Jaw 06-10-2021 10:07 AM

I think it is confirmed she is in Guardians 3 isn't it?

The multiverse is going to play a large part in future events and this show is a major introduction to it, so I wouldn't call it unnecessary.

Well it's not Gamora's show, so there's no real reason to mention her in it. If Guardians 3 doesn't address it, then yeah it will be a plot hole.

I can buy the "it was supposed to happen" excuse for the avengers, since their actions have such an impact on the entire universe, but it will be disappointing if they use the same excuse for Gamora.

Shadow 06-12-2021 11:18 PM

Oh boy. I can already see where they want to go with this show and it's gonna be great.

I'm only using tags out of courtesy, because it isn't really:

Clearly rampant speculation because it's only one episode, but
SPOILER: show
I'm guessing the whole "sacred timeline" thing is artificial. They're forcibly trying to streamline the timeline(s) for some sort of cosmic convenience. It's how you end up with Red Skull being a stone guardian and, of course, an office full of copious copies of infinity stones. I'm guessing this is going to "end badly" and lead into the next Doctor Strange.

Another thought I have about this is that I think Loki in particular prob'ly bucks destiny a lot, and that there isn't just the "other one" running around. In fact, I'm also almost willing to wager this isn't the first Loki that Mobius has tried to or has succeeded in recruiting.

M-A-G 06-13-2021 12:50 PM

LOL, I just noticed in the room where Loki takes a ticket, there's a poster on the wall that says "BEHAVE...or get your clock cleaned!" :lol: I want one.

Seanny One Ball 06-15-2021 05:11 AM

I thought it was fantastic, probably the best first episode of all three shows.

McLegend 06-15-2021 10:49 PM

Everyone likes Tom Hiddleston, and the general consensus is that he’s a good actor. So why doesn’t he do anything else?

What am I missing?

Fignuts 06-15-2021 11:13 PM

He's probably just picky about his roles. He certainly can afford to be.

mitchables 06-16-2021 12:45 AM

i get what you're saying but hiddleston has played loki 8 times (including this series and the upcoming what if...?) since 2011

in the same period he has starred in 3 short films, 13 feature films (plus one cameo), 2 documentaries, 2 tv movies, 12 episodes of a tv documentary, a handful of random tv appearances between 1-6 episodes, an upcoming tv series, four theatre productions and two radio shows

so what i think you mean is he doesn't do anything else that you've engaged with

Lock Jaw 06-16-2021 12:57 AM

Well he wasn't Loki in those other things so why would I

mitchables 06-16-2021 01:45 AM

no for sure, i would've seen like maybe two of the other things in that body of work

i'm just saying it's not really fair to be like "why doesn't he do anything else" when he does heaps

I get that same vibe from people who ask about a certain band or artist that has 'disappeared' but it's like, no, they still do stuff; they're just not pushed as hard as whatever the new hotness is that the record companies want you to swallow.

Sooooo this is Enchantress. Either that or they've merged the Enchantress and lady loki characters.

If it's not her, I'm going to feel quite cheated over not getting an MCU version of that character.

M-A-G 06-17-2021 10:58 PM

OK, so evidently IMDB made a whoopsie because
SPOILER: show
they listed the variant at the end of the episode as "Sylvie" before changing it to "The Variant". Sylvie was the second non-Asgardian Enchantress so this is a bit odd.

Listed as Sylvie Laufeydottir. "Dottir" infers female gender as opposed to Loki Laufeyson. So it appears they are indeed merging the characters.

There were a couple of moments that make me think Loki is setting her up to think he’s useless.

I kinda thought that, too. Also, in the grand scheme of things, I think Mobius AND his boss might also be Lokis (she always seemed to be short about the time lizards being "busy" in a way that was very Wizard of Oz-ish) who have been doing this for so long they may or may not even *remember* they're Loki.

Explanation: this timeline is a big long con and completely INFESTED with various versions of Loki, but since every Loki thinks they're more clever than every other, each one has a similarly impactful idea of the TVA; be it rule over it or destroy it or whatever. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing is kinda like The Citadel of Ricks and was started by Loki as a means of fulfiling his dream of ruling.

Or, you know, I can be completely off the mark and just need to watch the gorram show to completion.

Shadow 06-28-2021 09:31 AM

The latter will probably be for the best.

This would be fantastic. I thought they established that he is for sure dying to Thanos. I'm thinking they might introduce Fantastic 4 in some fashion towards the last 2 episodes. And it would make sense if they're going by Mobius from the comics.

RP 06-30-2021 07:58 PM

I feel like Kang is for sure happening and there will be strong reference to Fantastic 4 if not an actual appearance from Reed Richards maybe ( John Krasinski maybe? ). Kang is casted and coming and it would make a ton of sense to wrap Kang, Mobius and FF4 at the end of this series.

I wish this series was 8 episodes instead of 6.

Huh. Didn't notice he was a frog, but got enough of a glimpse to know it was Thor.

That actually makes Gator Loki make more sense, and most of the variants might agree with me if he weren't buried out of view.

Now *that* I completely missed. Now I have to go back and try to scour the scene for any other stuff they shoved into the refuse pile.

I like "our" Loki's reaction to the perpetual betrayals in like two minutes. He's completely done with what is obviously his own bullshit.

I wonder how many years of practice it took "Lonely" Loki to learn to build cities like that?

And finally, for some reason, I kept picturing classic RPGs in my head, but every party member that comes and goes is named Loki except Sylvie (and I still suspect Mobius who has been in the TVA so long, he doesn't even remember he's one).

Loki left the party.

Loki and Loki have joined the party!

Loki is poisoned.

Loki used HEAL ALL on Loki! Loki has ganed 29HP! Loki has gained 35HP! It did not work on Loki! Loki has gained 27HP!

Right path, totally wrong suspect... but considering they didn't even introduce said suspect until now, I guess it's close enough for government work. Also, it only makes my Citadel of Ricks analogy work if Rick populated the citadel with Jerrys and Beths and plenty of other characters that weren't him or Morty at all, and that Rick was actively trying to hide himself from every multiverse instead of dimension hopping with the portal gun.

Also, the reveal itself gave *just* enough away if you are familiar, but if you're not, it's still a mystery of exactly who the fuck this is (until nerds who can't wait push up their glasses and belch out the name in the next few days because they can't help themselves on social media). Especially the detailed animated armatures during storytime.

I really like the line: "... and, for a while, there was peace. Narciscistic, self-congratulatory peace."

That whole speech gave serious Ozymandias vibes; basically more Watchmen than Watchmen, because the stakes are far larger.

I don't know if Kang is taking over the Thanos role. He's slated to be the villain for Ant man 3. I think Dr. Doom is the way to go for the next multi phase threat. Though I could see Kang/Immortus/Rama Tut/ Iron Lad playing a part in future events.

SPOILER: show
Kinda what I meant about his expositional monologue. "I've been called many things... Conquorer..." was slid in there. Also, with his little animated action figures, when they began fighting eachother, with the battle armor instead of the "peaceful" versions of him with lab coats, it was clearly Kang. But outside of hardcore comic fans, people don't know who or what Kang is, and this did a masterful job of keeping that a secret in the bounds of the MCU.

Also, one thing lost in all this that I'm sure will be addressed later is the fact that The Tessaract is still at the TVA, which means our known and established MCU timeline is fucked up and missing an Infinity Stone... unless when the TVA reset the timeline, it actually forced the ending to the original Avengers where Loki never escaped...

https://i.quotev.com/img/q/u/16/6/29...hcxrp-imag.jpg
"Here's the thing: multiverse theory's a BITCH!"

Anyway, here's another prediciton: after everything gets resolved, and Loki gets back to where he's supposed to be, he's going to pull the same trick "Lonely" Loki did to get around being killed by Thanos. What he does with that remains to be seen, becasue even though he seems to be growing as a person from all these hijinks, everyone from the actual timeline only thinks of him as they know him.

Shadow 07-15-2021 09:51 AM

Honestly TVA Loki is on a more rapid course to becoming a better person then main timeline Loki did. Basically he didn't need 2 more movies to become a person Thor could openly admire is what I'm saying. Just needed 5 episodes of a really good tv show.

SPOILER: show
Man I hope they show what happened when Kang took over the TVA at some point. Would love to know why Mobius and B-15 are still working for it after what went down. Also where's Renslayer in all this? My guess is she's back at the beginning of time trying to do a course correct.

I liked Loki a lot as a show. Looking forward to season 2!

The way the actor who played He Who Remains performed the character was strange and unnerving, it felt a bit Shakespearean and theatrical in an extremely old school way.
I liked it, I hope there’s a lot more from him.
If he is the new main baddie he’s already leagues ahead of Thanos in terms of performance.
It would be nice to have a more thoughtfully portrayed villain.

Lock Jaw 07-15-2021 09:26 PM

Would be "Cool" to see him "regularly appear" in movies/shows.... like the opposite of Thanos where he appeared like a handful of times post-credits doing 1 thing.

Dunno about that. Everything about him screamed Immortus.

I watched the series over the past 24 hours, and I enjoyed it a lot. There was some serious Stanley Kubrick vibes in the early episodes; presumably as a result of the music. I liked the production design as a whole.

I think out of all three of the Marvel series, this one is my favourite, and I look forward to season 2.

I liked it, I hope there’s a lot more from him.

It was (a large) part his performance, and also something about the camera slowly pushing in and out while he would talk. It was almost like we could feel the centuries of trying to essentially save history from... well, himself drove him mad, and we were at least temporarily going on that ride as well.

But he did kinda have that Kenneth Branaugh style Shakespeare play movie quality to him. If he redid Othello today, pretty sure this guy'd get the role.

Another thing to add to the fan wishlist outside of getting Damage Control (which I did!) and Alpha Flight: Lokigator reemerges in a new Howard the Duck film!

And I also want the April Fool's Day joke about "Disheveled Man" in the new Dr. Strange movie to actually be real.

Actor reminded me of Benny from OG Total Recall
