Thor: The Dark World (2013)

[Nightmare Asylum]

Yeah, that. it just kind of came out nowhere with only seconds left in the film. My thoughts may change on it after I see how it plays out, though.

Didn't really seem to come out of nowhere to me.

Spoiler

I thought it was pretty obvious that the guard that returned and approached Odin to tell him Loki was dead was actually Loki himself (the way he spoke and the general look on his face gave it away). So the moment I saw Odin slouched over in the chair at the end, I could see the reveal coming.

Spoiler

I figured Loki had survived, but the replacing Odin seemed a bit abrupt. Especially since Thor couldn;t have left that bigass room yet.

Let's put a different twist to it...

Spoiler

There is no Loki.

Perfection.

I'd pay good money to see Fassbender and Hiddleston play against one another.

It was pretty awesome that he shared some scenes with Benedict Cumberbatch in War Horse. So British.

Ahem, question about that cameo scene:

Spoiler

so, Loki shapeshifted into different characters. Didn't he shapeshift Thor as well when they were walking down the corridor or does my memory betray me? How is that possible? If Loki can shapeshift himself and whoever he wants to without them detecting it... well, the possibilities are endless. Is this ability canon for his character in the comics?

Besides, yeah I never bought that he was dead either. Marvel would be crazy to kill off their most popular creation in the movies and besides... we know that Marvel loves to resurrect dead characters just because they can, right...?

They've done it ONCE, and the way AoS is going I'm not even sure if it's technically a resurrection!

Anyways, as far as Loki's shape shifting goes, I kind of saw it as an evolution of his holograms from the previous films. Like he learned how to use them in other forms than just himself and use them as disguises on him and other people. I don't know if he can do that in the comics, but there was a pretty big instance where he was stuck in

Spoiler

Sif's body.

So, you acknowledge that they did it once... mwuhahahaha. Found the weak spot of you Marvel fanboys, I have... mwuhahahahaha....

Well, ok... giving it some thought, Loki has some formidable skills then. With a bit of insidious planning, he could get out of that cell without much trouble if he wanted to, me thinks. Btw, I kinda liked how Malekith's right hand monster... man or whatever he was, let all the prisoners out to cause chaos in Asgaard... except Loki. As if he could sense that this guy... best not to let him roam free. Loki just looked right back at him, not giving a shit in the world lol...

I feel the need to point out that this movie has black hole grenades in it. That is awesome.

This part was kind of cool.

"Don't you ever regret teaching him your magic?"

"You and your father cast long shadows," Frigga began, hoping to finally make Thor understand. "I had hoped that by sharing my gifts with Loki, he could feel some sun for himself."

I thought they gave him an infinity gem.

Spoiler

The Aether is an Infinity Gem.

Does that mean the tesseract is another?

Yes. When Sif and Volstagg gave the Collector the Aether they said something along about already having the Tesseract in Asgard and it not being safe keeping two Infinity Stones in the same place.

Spoiler

Now I'm imagining a wacky scene where Thanos tries to jam a bunch of red goop and a large cube into the Infinity Gauntlet.

[close]

[Nightmare Asylum]

Spoiler

Well as it was seen in Thor the Gauntlet appears to already have gems in it:



Could potentially be that the energy from the Tesseract and the Aether need to be transferred into those gems rather than the objects themselves put into the Gauntlet. We already know from the Hydra weapons, SHIELD's Phase II weapons, and the element in Tony Stark's arc reactor that the Tesseract's energy can be harvested used in alternative ways. And Malekith essentially absorbed the Aether into himself.
