So, correct me if I missed something. Last season, TVA quietly and without hesitation erased the extra branches of time to preserve the sacred. In this series, when some branches were bombed, everyone was somehow too upset. "It's millions of human lives!", and in the past there were millions of human lives, but they continued to erase everything without question. What has changed now? At what point did TVA employees start thinking about their lives? I specially recently revised the first season to refresh my memory, but I still didn't fully understand this moment.
@margafred: maybe it's due to the fact that they are now more emotionally involved? Like before, they didn't consider themselves to be those people from the branches, but now they understand that in general, they were all abducted from there and their lives may be somewhere there
@margafred: as far as I understand, there was one branch earlier, and individual renegades were erased in it. And since the events of the end of the first season, branches have appeared. That is, in fact, the multiverse was created at the end of season 1 of Loki.
@Mekc: in general, they did not erase a separate outcast, but just one individual thought differently and created a whole branch with billions of lives, a whole universe, and it was completely erased, this individual was taken away and judged for having created that new universe that they erased, and in the end they erased him too.
As explained above, there were no branches. There were individual variants that were seized and destroyed. At the end of the first season, they found out that they were the same options, and the options became personalities. And whole new universes were formed with other personalities. Therefore, everything has become more complicated.
@a1144282: Each of the TWA employees was an option, manifested in a separate branch from the sacred timeline. The timeline was corrected, the branch was destroyed, and the option was taken to the TVA, the memory was cleared and put to work.
Well, I'm saying that the options could not exist in the main timeline, that is, there were branches branched, and the person above writes that there were no branches, there were separate options.
@a1144282: a person made a "different" decision - a branch appeared. It was found, taken away, the branch was destroyed. Nothing has changed. At the end of that season - they decided to let them grow = it's okay. It took some time, there were a lot of branches, the universe began to crack at the seams (well, or only UVR)
@Wefast: A branch is already a universe that has taken a different path. The destruction of a branch is the destruction of this universe. And it didn't bother anyone.
@margafred: most likely, the agents were not told (and they did not think about it) that after extracting the options and leaving "some kind of cleaning device" there, they simply cleaned the branch. all non-variants were "erased". And since the agents had no memory and blind faith in the trinity of caretakers, then they did not sweat. "they" versus "us"
Now everything is more complicated. And the agents found out that they are also options. And that the "device" destroyed the entire branch along with the people. And twa itself became a multi-universe... And, apparently, also fixated in time. "we"
@margafred: they didn't care before because they didn't know they were the same people as the ones they were deleting. And then they found out and their empathy suddenly "turned on"😅
@margafred: where were you when watching the first episode of the second season? TVA employees now know that they are also options, and that branches must exist.
Of course, I'll get the cons again, but I don't give a shit. I continue to believe that this series is the main disappointment of the year. if Loki was Loki in the Marvel films (up to the last scenes with him), now Loki is just Hiddleston who plays either himself or his usual aristocrats from the "British communal apartment". of all his imbecile skills, they left only the opportunity to occasionally throw a puny fireball (and let me remind you, in the Torah their ent began with the fact that he is a kagbe GOD and the main trickster), and the whole story boils down to running after a woman who, according to their ent, is such a type of timeless homeless woman and is constantly on the run and eats according to their hints almost rats, which, however, does not prevent her from finding time somewhere for styling and coloring in blonde. the feeling that the fanf from the ficbook is being filmed is simple
@ZombieZaya: Last season I was saddened by exactly two things: Sylvia, who is absolutely not Loki (as it turned out later, the director displayed herself in this heroine, so it's clear why there is no Loki vibe) and the disgusting chartacter development-a of the main character. If in Marvel films, we see how Loki changes gradually, from film to film (between which a lot of time passes), then here from a Villain (and we had Loki exactly a villain, sample 2012), he turns into an antihero in just a few days. On the other hand, the first season had a great Mobius, a great atmosphere and some interesting cameos. Plus, the Kang version from the ending was just gorgeous (as much as it was dull later in the Ant). And the second season feels like it doesn't add anything new to the good sides and continues to strengthen the bad ones.
@ZombieZaya: I also can't understand what happened to Loki, he can't read his mind like Sylvie or am I confusing something? even in this series, how much he ran after the brow, when he had to catch up with him instantly, well, at least some shadows showed, mostly disappointment in the character, like an ordinary person
@luvrok: then it's strange, and the excuse about non-working magic in TVA seems weak, because initially they were in a different timeline, why wouldn't Loki read the mind there
@sadakiyo: apparently, this Loki is not capable, but in the third Torah he read the memory of the valkyrie when they fought Each screenwriter comes up with his own list of abilities for Loki🙃
@ZombieZaya: I agree with you, I have a difficult relationship with this series too. He seems to be about Loki, but from Loki himself they cut off everything that made him them, and explained this by saying that magic does not work in TVA. Why? "Well, the prost doesn't work and that's it, leave it alone." Hiddleston plays well, but (and here you are right again) as if someone else, not_loki, the character was completely lost. In this series, the shadow of OG Loki flashed: magic tricks at the beginning, the interrogation scene is partial, but this is not enough and it always slides into some kind of melodrama. With the same success, literally anyone could do it all instead of Loki.
@scarcelyinside: if infinity stones don't plow here, then magic, too, they are in a separate world from everything else. Its own laws of time and space.
@Fangorn345: well, I say, we will justify our laws with "because because", which limit the central character. This is good for his development as a person, because he has to look for other methods, but he also practically does not use magic in other timelines now.
Not that it's a filler series, but for a season of 6 episodes, it seems to me that such series need to be shortened. Communication between Loki and Mobius (and how he appeared) delivers, but the Docs were sorted out in just a minute, and the rest of the time they just chatted. It was a cool scene with shadows, but it's literally a drop in the 50-minute sea.
Something is wrong, the way Loki was running after a random person at the beginning caused disappointment. "I am God, you stupid creature," disappeared somewhere. Here and earlier in the first season, it's definitely not Loki anymore. It is impossible to change the behavior and character of a character in 5 minutes!!!🥺😭
I love Loki, but for some reason there's not much left of Loki here. In movies, you always expect a trick from him, but here he's a positive character.🤨
@Fangorn345: Chronologically, 2 weeks have passed there since a maximum of 1 episode of the last season. I can see how a villain at his peak becomes a hero in less than a month, it should be a smoother transition.
@luvrok: with 6 episodes per season, 2-year breaks, and more strikes with a smooth transition, there would clearly be problems. So thanks for the development, but there is.
@id333375238: He was smarter in the sacred timeline, but it still took him a couple of years to rethink himself, and this is the organic growth of the character.
Damn it, I forgot that Tom is so handsome. 😂 But I don't like the fact that they did it to the character. It's some kind of Loki from Aliexpress.: no abilities, no character. Not only that, but he's been completely unhinged since the movies. Mobius also reminded him (!) that he was the god of deception, and only then did they come up with an interrogation plan. What is it anyway? For Loki, deceiving and improvising in chaos is like breathing, it's the same basic trait as Tony Stark's LC suit. They make Loki into a positive character in the series, when he should essentially be an antihero. He must have negative qualities, he must achieve a good goal, but certainly by bad methods. But here he turned from an antagonist into an exemplary boy scout, and lost his whole core. It's a shame, in short.
However, this does not mean that I do not like the series. The plot is quite good. Visually, everything is beautiful, the style is excellent, the dynamics between the characters are still good, as in the first season.
@hinarien: I think a redesign arc is good if it's well done. But often, alas, it is done either as a sharp 180-degree turn without any consequences for the character (well, like they scolded and that's it, I'm forgiven), or through a sudden heroic death.
Immediately, everything became clear to me by the last episode, for example.
MEETCUTE TIME NERDS. OB & Casey - MEETCUTE TIME NERDS. They're so adorable. Not a bad series, but mostly just a fanservice one.
I missed Loki doing his divine magic stuff. It's really amazing that Loki uses magic in his TV series "Loki", green & sparkly... Sylvie's new bi hairstyle is fire, it suits her very well.
Considering how much attention the series paid to Brad's ranting about the hero-villain dichotomy of Loki, I began to expect Loki to use the Black Widow's way of extracting information-"Oh, I got what I needed by letting you chat, thank you." I hung up the expectation myself, I got upset myself :D the fact that he ended up just freaking out (but beautifully, because Hiddleston).
The ending of the first episode: Loki is catapulted through time right into the arms of Mobius. The ending of the second episode: Loki comforts Mobius by putting his hand on his shoulder.
I like this Locius moment, which comes immediately after Sylvie left, and Loki "Please don't, it's harder to stay" made an active choice not to follow her (a glorious parallel to the second episode of the first season) and stay in TVA, stay with Mobius.
As mentioned above, Loki and Mobius' relationship is the heart of the series. It's nice to watch their scenes together. Sitting at the table (twice in the series) Locius is so domestic! Liked lime pie date
- Well, come on. You are the God of Mischief. Right?
It was damn nice to see Loki using his powers in the episode, as well as using dirty methods to extract information from Brad. It's like the good old Loki is back with us))) Although I personally don't complain about changing the character for the better, it was inevitable when I got my own project. However, hopefully, the moments that set Loki apart from the rest will also appear in the upcoming episodes. The episode itself didn't seem like a passing episode to me, there was quite a lot going on, and we even had time to dig into Loki and Mobius' heads. I think Brad, in his insulting speech, voiced what Loki is still afraid of - that he can only ruin everything. Plus, I stomped on the sore spot of Mobius with his identity crisis. I didn't expect to see him so freaked out, but it was cool))) I'm sure this season will reveal his past life.
I didn't understand what Sylvie was holding at the end of the episode. It is strange that it is her timeline that remains, out of the rest that were destroyed.
It seems like I'm watching the series with pleasure, but I can't help but agree that Loki is "no longer a cake." It feels very strongly that this Loki is exactly that variant and bears little resemblance to the original one (although it was taken not from some other timeline, like the same Sylvia, but from the SACRED ONE) It is very similar to the situation when a child's beloved pet dies and the parents give him a new one so that he does not get upset. A new pet may be cool too, but it will never be the same one that is no longer there.
BUT I liked the series anyway, and much more than the first one. At least there were echoes of the former Loki and these shadow fucks of his as a reference to the first Thor. But still, he doesn't feel like an independent character, it's just that Mobius and Sylvia take Thor's place in turn, as if the authors are afraid that Loki alone will either be boring to watch, or the fandom will fall from an overdose of Tom's charisma and there will be no one to give the series high marks.
@Annie10792: I guess it's because he's back in her life. Even at the end of season 1, he said that he "just wished her happiness." And so, if you look at it from her side, she "destroyed the main evil" together with TVA, and now she wants and tries to live that calm and happy life. But then Loki shows up again, "dragging" TVA with him and interrupts her serenity.
This X-5 is a strange character. In the last episode, he was thrown in as if he had always been in the series (he wasn't in season 1, was he?), he behaved like a loyal TVA dog, and now suddenly he's a fugitive. It's kind of inconsistent from the point of view of the script.
While no special plot development has happened in 2 episodes, Wilson and Hiddleston interact well, but Sofia Di Martino does not play the character, looks wooden against the background of the other heroes.
I got distracted and didn't think about the series until the evening after the first ten minutes, and then a couple of times I wanted to stop and do something more interesting. Everything seems to be OK, but it's boring to watch. Thank you at least for some of Loki's powers, even though there are very few of them, and this has been infuriating since the first season) imho, he should run faster than an ordinary person, he was hanging out in space and did not die) I keep dreaming that he uses the powers of the ice giant, but of course there is no hope at all) chatter with Mobius is cute
I understand that the budget of the series is not the same as that of the Marvel films, but Loki of the "Avengers" sample, ready just once to throw a ball of energy at a fleeing opponent, is somehow sad. Still, the God of Deception deserves better - some ambitious setting like the battle with Thor on Bifrost or the Battle for New York. Well, the dynamics with Mobius are nice, but they lack the drama of a brotherly relationship with Thor, in which Loki revealed himself in a particularly multifaceted way. You can't recognize him now (
@IndieAme: Loki's punch should be like God's, like Thor's. Against a person, it's gg right away. And here he hits like a human, I don't really understand this trend of a hero without superpowers, of course we see that loki has powers, but shooting a fireball a couple of times is of course nonsense. The same thing happened in Sokol and Winter Soldier. The Winter Soldier doesn't have a physical advantage, but he fights people with the serum on equal terms, and WHY is not clear.
The Winter Soldier has superpowers from the serum, he is tough and wields various types of weapons. + bionic arm adds power Therefore, he is physically on an equal footing with people with serum
@luvrok: I'm with you, I've been wondering all along why the Falcon is so strong, and even fights almost cooler than the Winter Soldier at times. Probably because it's black, and the agenda was just in full swing))
Sylvia has strange complaints about Loki, he's actually been hanging out there for a couple of days, what's he got to do with it. The second season is very strange so far. I expected more and more. So far, so good. It's like a children's play. Loki and Sylvie are like both Gods by themselves, but are they only capable of a small flash together? Yeah. Of course, Sylvie just has 0 wyba Loki. As they picked up a completely unsuitable actress from the very beginning, so it went, it didn't get any better
something is not clear, the last episode dealt with Loki's bug, in this one they abruptly switched to some kind of x-5, who was some kind of random hunter who escaped, I didn't even notice him in episode 1, it's unclear what Sylvie has to do with it at all, or I just missed something. Can someone explain this moment? Loki has abruptly become some kind of super positive character this season, what nonsense, he should be alive and balanced, and it's unclear what they made of him, a super kind man who wants to save everyone and he cares about people, I don't see any loki now, I see Tom Hiddleston, an actor, who plays a character that I do not know at all. I've barely finished it, it's a bit of a drag
@luvrok: He doesn't want a Kang war, as he's already met one. He was looking for Sylvie from the previous episode, and then they came across this X-5 in the timeline, who was sent to look for Sylvie just as they originally thought, so they decided to torture him, because no one else knows where Sylvie is. Can I explain to you why Loki needs Sylvia? Or will you understand that he has fallen in love with her?
It's kind of a dull episode, and it seems that the whole plot has sagged. Sylvie was terribly disappointed; they searched for her so much, they wasted so much effort in the frame to escalate the pursuit of her - but in the end there was nothing for it: she was sitting there at the cash register like a stupid girl.
the only thing I liked was the designs in the UVI again.)) and that they had a lawn mower there that made noise during the interrogation.))
Mixed feelings. It seems that the actors are pleasant and the dialogues are interesting to listen to. The relationship is developing somehow. But the plot of the series is five minutes long. The filler is as it is.
50/50 series, you can throw your sneakers From the good: we saw Loki's magic again, although not in all its glory, such a cute relationship between Loki and Mobius smacks of a good bromance, and yes, information-seeking in Loki's style. From the bad: why the hell did they turn the charismatic, cunning and quirky God of deception, whom we fell in love with just like that, into a non-hero who is desperately trying to save the universe? And there is no logical explanation for this heroism ( A separate story is Sylvia, but I don't like her, in season 1 even more or less, and here bue... especially the hairstyle)
I've already seen so many outrages about this series on the Internet, and every time I understand more and more that people are not ready to read the meanings and rather obvious thoughts. Both the first episode and this one are amazing. By the way, I really love the pie scene, which I've seen a lot of negative things about. "nothing happens in the episode, Loki and Mobius just sit eating and talking about feelings." So that's the point! The series is literally from the very beginning about therapy and talking about these very feelings. about how Loki changes, realizes something, accepts and understands things about himself. It's all about mental problems and paddocks that Loki eventually learns to deal with. And that 's what makes the series cool .
@CatCastiel: Do you not understand what kind of therapy? Does Loki have to change? Is he a man with feelings? Loki must be an antihero and always lose!
Everything is very strange. The sequence of actions and dialogues is not visible. What is happening is not clear, the attitude of the characters to what is happening is not clear. It feels like one episode has been lost somewhere. But it doesn't matter, everyone here is very much an actor and they act very much. They'll play with their faces like this and the viewer will understand what's going on. The director wanted to make a series about the adventures of two police detectives with chemistry between them. Morpheus was well thought out for this purpose. But why did they sacrifice the Asgardian god? But so that the audience doesn't complain, let's give him a couple of old tricks. But the viewer saw them and remembered that something was wrong, and this was no longer some kind of Asgardian god.
I'm terribly disappointed with the second season, apparently I won't watch it anymore after this episode. I was thrilled with the first season, and I was really looking forward to the second, but then everything that made the series interesting seemed to be lost. I don't understand at all what's going on, where everyone is going, why, what they want, who needs to empathize with, who doesn't, everything is somehow confusing and meaningless.
The first 2 episodes are very dull. It seems that everyone is worried about some temporary branches, but it is not clear where this came from. The relationship between Morpheus and Loki in season 1 looked much more lively and interesting, because one is so positive, and the other is like a villain, but in doubt. and such a tandem was wonderful. Right now it's not visible
@Anaida999: not everyone is worried, or rather worried about the fact that branches have appeared. But when the truth about the versions became known, some began to worry about them (for example, a black employee).
@DeadDanny: Oh, yeah. Even if the camera can only close from the inside (well, that is, to the main mechanism of closing / opening from the outside, an addition such as a latch on the toilet door) is this already stupidity, can the person sitting in the camera close and not let anyone in? If the camera doesn't actually close from the inside, then why would this clown believe that it was closed - he worked there.
Actually, as many people say, I don't understand why Loki stopped being an antihero or a villain. As I understand it, he is several thousand years old, he has always been dodgy and sneaky, with hidden intent. Immediately, he tries to save the universe, but why is not clear. In the movies, he had at least some kind of path to self-sacrifice, and even there he wasn't so positive.
P.S. they show us the Earth, but what about the rest of the world? What kind of Asgard, guardians and others?
While everyone is outraged by the plot stuff, I'll admire the soundtrack again, no matter what happens, just let me listen to the music for Loki from Natalie Holt (I'm really waiting for the album to be released for this season)
The second season so far looks weaker than the first. But ... the hunted, hysterical, panicking Loki from the first series could quite understandably become the Loki who tries to save the world in the second series in a short time. Just because it's scary. And if nothing is done about this "scary", then everything is gone (this was the case in the third Torah with the advent of Hela - Loki dramatically changed his tactics of behavior). And who's left to save the world? So Loki is working his ass off, while simultaneously dealing with his new girlfriend and their "cockroaches" in her head. "Staying is the hardest part." But Loki has something to fight for and something to lose, it's a different beast. He stays. I believe they'll show us the real Loki when things get really bad. Besides, Loki wasn't perceived as pure evil in the movies. No. He wants peace for everyone, but in his own way. He doesn't want extermination, he's not Thanos. He craves attention, respect, and love. This is the complex of the younger brother, who has been in the shadow of the elder all his life. And since everything is easy for the eldest by birthright, Loki has nothing left but manipulation, control, and the imposition of fear. However, as often happens in life, other people around you make you a different person. Therefore, one cannot compare Loki's relationship with Thor and Loki's relationship with Mobius. These are other roles. As for the UVEI and their sudden empathy for the deaths that occur with the destruction of the branches, there is a huge miscalculation that, no matter how hard you try, you will not be able to explain. I do not believe that throughout the existence of the timeline, none of the agents thought: "Do we have the right to "play God" and decide who lives and who dies?". Now it looks like the agents "changed their shoes in the air" and SUDDENLY realized that they were doing something wrong. The viewer probably just has to come to terms with this plot. Still, the series is not bad, compared to the latest Marvel movies, it's very watchable.
@Tesh: "I don't believe that throughout the entire existence of the timeline, none of the agents thought, 'Well, anyone who thought about it, had their memory erased or had their own erased. In the end, there were only those who didn't think twice. Artificial selection in action.
bro on the directors remembered that Loki is not just a dick from the mountain, but a god from another planet, which has cool super powers, but they remembered literally for two minutes. I don't understand why they use Loki's powers so rarely, don't they? I want more action
@-Damons__blood-: the authors specifically belittle the force, as it was in another war, when Cap fought Stark in a suit on equal terms, otherwise he dealt with everyone in two minutes using magic and his physical strength (and he, for a moment, is an ice giant/ Asgardian god)
I miss the old TV series formats, where there were many episodes per season, most of them were fillers, but throughout the season they either explained ENT or added details to the grand finale of the season.
But Tom Hiddleston is expensive, so you have to talk through the exposition and immediately move the main plot.
@sokobath: And it also affects the perception of TVA. I like the surroundings of the place, the scenery. And in episode 1 of season 1, I was thrilled with their power. For example, I was very struck by the scene where the infinity stones, which the characters ran after all the movies, were just garbage for them. It seemed like something new and powerful. But then they started sucking very quickly.
LostFilm: "Did you really think you could escape?", original: "that you could escape from me?" LF: "elegant", original: "rude" LF: "... I'll put you back in the cube", original: "in Gizmo (device name). Do you want to be squeezed in a cube?" LF: "Without you... it's hard", the original: "It's harder... stay"
And Loki is good - he even controls a shadow 😎 UB was a good character. It's nice that he wasn't hired for a single episode. "I was following you" "No, I was following you" 😆 I hope all this damage will have a silver lining, like it will give the UVR more time to deal with the situation - open the doors, install that device... By the way, if the UVR explodes, will the hinges still remain or what? Next: we deleted the branches this time, and then what? A coup and take control and bring back the old order? After all, the ramifications can continue to repeat... PS Lisa Arrin continues to frame everyone here 😆
God, how depressing everything is, I want to watch the series at 1.5, or even all 2. Loki is just a pathetic joke, the dialogues seemed to be written by teenagers in the stage of maximalism and philosophy. And this flawed Mobius punch scene in the face of a runaway security guard, even I can play better without the basics of acting. The secret invasion was a wild mess, but at least there was blood, and here is a kindergarten, a fairy tale of 5+ years. The first season of Loki had potential, the second one is just being dumped in the trash. It's very sad
Sylvie is just nothing) especially with that hairstyle. By the way, do you understand why she is so aggressive against Loki? It feels like I've missed a couple episodes.
At the beginning of the series, I got the impression that I was watching Mission Impossible, I was missing the title soundtrack and Tom Cruise running next to me =)
Sylvia is such a non-existent character that I hope this was her last appearance. It's a passing episode, but finally Loki used at least some of his abilities, but he's still not the character I've come to love. But for the sake of Hiddleston's wild charisma, I'm looking further.
Has Loki learned to deal with his feelings? It's gorgeous!! He found Sylvie, but he didn't beg her to stay or run after her when she left again. I decided to fight. Worthy. Although the moment of knocking out information was interesting.
What the? I feel like I missed a couple of episodes. Who is ix5, why did he run away? Why doesn't he say anything? How does he know where this Sylvia is? Why does everyone need it so much? What kind of nonsense is this?
They have a lime pie eating scene, but they didn't eat anything in it. If I had been there, there would have been nothing left of that pie on the second take. And they just pretended to eat.
@bohdanZPM: For the life of me, I can't remember who told me, but the point is that this was the first time a man starred in a food scene, and in the first take he ate heartily. But cinema works in such a way that in the end he had to overeat in the second take, the third, the fourth, the fifth and all the subsequent ones so that he could not see this food anymore. It is necessary to eat at home)) In general, in this case, it is quite possible to conclude that they wanted to show this. that this conversation was more important than the food.
I didn't understand how it happened that Sylvia's line ended up remaining. Well, okay, obviously this is not her last appearance. But to be honest, I hope this season doesn't come down to finding Loki's love, because I'd like to see something else. It's not about Loki's love interests, it's about the fact that Sylvia is kind of repulsive. It's still unclear if she ran over them. In fact, it all started because of her. McDonald's advertising is excellent, of course, it's just unobtrusive, I would say))))

Now everything is more complicated. And the agents found out that they are also options. And that the "device" destroyed the entire branch along with the people. And twa itself became a multi-universe... And, apparently, also fixated in time. "we"
TVA employees now know that they are also options, and that branches must exist.
I continue to believe that this series is the main disappointment of the year. if Loki was Loki in the Marvel films (up to the last scenes with him), now Loki is just Hiddleston who plays either himself or his usual aristocrats from the "British communal apartment". of all his imbecile skills, they left only the opportunity to occasionally throw a puny fireball (and let me remind you, in the Torah their ent began with the fact that he is a kagbe GOD and the main trickster), and the whole story boils down to running after a woman who, according to their ent, is such a type of timeless homeless woman and is constantly on the run and eats according to their hints almost rats, which, however, does not prevent her from finding time somewhere for styling and coloring in blonde.
the feeling that the fanf from the ficbook is being filmed is simple
On the other hand, the first season had a great Mobius, a great atmosphere and some interesting cameos. Plus, the Kang version from the ending was just gorgeous (as much as it was dull later in the Ant).
And the second season feels like it doesn't add anything new to the good sides and continues to strengthen the bad ones.
Each screenwriter comes up with his own list of abilities for Loki🙃
He seems to be about Loki, but from Loki himself they cut off everything that made him them, and explained this by saying that magic does not work in TVA. Why? "Well, the prost doesn't work and that's it, leave it alone."
Hiddleston plays well, but (and here you are right again) as if someone else, not_loki, the character was completely lost. In this series, the shadow of OG Loki flashed: magic tricks at the beginning, the interrogation scene is partial, but this is not enough and it always slides into some kind of melodrama.
With the same success, literally anyone could do it all instead of Loki.
Some kind of conversational series came out and besides Tom's game, nothing important was shown.
I really like the character O.B.

In movies, you always expect a trick from him, but here he's a positive character.🤨
But I don't like the fact that they did it to the character.
It's some kind of Loki from Aliexpress.: no abilities, no character. Not only that, but he's been completely unhinged since the movies. Mobius also reminded him (!) that he was the god of deception, and only then did they come up with an interrogation plan. What is it anyway? For Loki, deceiving and improvising in chaos is like breathing, it's the same basic trait as Tony Stark's LC suit.
They make Loki into a positive character in the series, when he should essentially be an antihero. He must have negative qualities, he must achieve a good goal, but certainly by bad methods. But here he turned from an antagonist into an exemplary boy scout, and lost his whole core. It's a shame, in short.
However, this does not mean that I do not like the series. The plot is quite good. Visually, everything is beautiful, the style is excellent, the dynamics between the characters are still good, as in the first season.
this is a new modern cartoon: redemption arc...
Immediately, everything became clear to me by the last episode, for example.
I missed Loki doing his divine magic stuff. It's really amazing that Loki uses magic in his TV series "Loki", green & sparkly... Sylvie's new bi hairstyle is fire, it suits her very well.
Considering how much attention the series paid to Brad's ranting about the hero-villain dichotomy of Loki, I began to expect Loki to use the Black Widow's way of extracting information-"Oh, I got what I needed by letting you chat, thank you." I hung up the expectation myself, I got upset myself :D the fact that he ended up just freaking out (but beautifully, because Hiddleston).
The ending of the first episode: Loki is catapulted through time right into the arms of Mobius.
The ending of the second episode: Loki comforts Mobius by putting his hand on his shoulder.
I like this Locius moment, which comes immediately after Sylvie left, and Loki "Please don't, it's harder to stay" made an active choice not to follow her (a glorious parallel to the second episode of the first season) and stay in TVA, stay with Mobius.
- Well, come on. You are the God of Mischief. Right?
The episode itself didn't seem like a passing episode to me, there was quite a lot going on, and we even had time to dig into Loki and Mobius' heads. I think Brad, in his insulting speech, voiced what Loki is still afraid of - that he can only ruin everything. Plus, I stomped on the sore spot of Mobius with his identity crisis. I didn't expect to see him so freaked out, but it was cool))) I'm sure this season will reveal his past life.
It is very similar to the situation when a child's beloved pet dies and the parents give him a new one so that he does not get upset. A new pet may be cool too, but it will never be the same one that is no longer there.
BUT I liked the series anyway, and much more than the first one. At least there were echoes of the former Loki and these shadow fucks of his as a reference to the first Thor. But still, he doesn't feel like an independent character, it's just that Mobius and Sylvia take Thor's place in turn, as if the authors are afraid that Loki alone will either be boring to watch, or the fandom will fall from an overdose of Tom's charisma and there will be no one to give the series high marks.
- just what you need!
How good is Tom in this episode
Everything is shown normally, there is no confusion. Tom is gorgeous.
Did you enjoy the conversation about the Avengers
And the series is great, Tom is great as always)
And they're all like, "everything is complicated."
I keep dreaming that he uses the powers of the ice giant, but of course there is no hope at all) chatter with Mobius is cute
Still, the God of Deception deserves better - some ambitious setting like the battle with Thor on Bifrost or the Battle for New York.
Well, the dynamics with Mobius are nice, but they lack the drama of a brotherly relationship with Thor, in which Loki revealed himself in a particularly multifaceted way. You can't recognize him now (
Therefore, he is physically on an equal footing with people with serum
Loki has abruptly become some kind of super positive character this season, what nonsense, he should be alive and balanced, and it's unclear what they made of him, a super kind man who wants to save everyone and he cares about people, I don't see any loki now, I see Tom Hiddleston, an actor, who plays a character that I do not know at all.
I've barely finished it, it's a bit of a drag
Can I explain to you why Loki needs Sylvia? Or will you understand that he has fallen in love with her?
Tom Hiddleston plays the transitions between emotions superbly.
Sylvie was terribly disappointed; they searched for her so much, they wasted so much effort in the frame to escalate the pursuit of her - but in the end there was nothing for it: she was sitting there at the cash register like a stupid girl.
the only thing I liked was the designs in the UVI again.))
and that they had a lawn mower there that made noise during the interrogation.))
I hope the third episode will be more interesting
It seems that the actors are pleasant and the dialogues are interesting to listen to. The relationship is developing somehow.
But the plot of the series is five minutes long.
The filler is as it is.
From the good: we saw Loki's magic again, although not in all its glory, such a cute relationship between Loki and Mobius smacks of a good bromance, and yes, information-seeking in Loki's style.
From the bad: why the hell did they turn the charismatic, cunning and quirky God of deception, whom we fell in love with just like that, into a non-hero who is desperately trying to save the universe? And there is no logical explanation for this heroism (
A separate story is Sylvia, but I don't like her, in season 1 even more or less, and here bue... especially the hairstyle)
Loki is not Loki, but some kind of stupid fuss instead of a plot.
That's the kind of guy fans want...
.... such strange 💀 💀 💀
The relationship between Morpheus and Loki in season 1 looked much more lively and interesting, because one is so positive, and the other is like a villain, but in doubt. and such a tandem was wonderful. Right now it's not visible
Oh, yeah.
Even if the camera can only close from the inside (well, that is, to the main mechanism of closing / opening from the outside, an addition such as a latch on the toilet door) is this already stupidity, can the person sitting in the camera close and not let anyone in?
If the camera doesn't actually close from the inside, then why would this clown believe that it was closed - he worked there.
P.S. they show us the Earth, but what about the rest of the world? What kind of Asgard, guardians and others?
the hunted, hysterical, panicking Loki from the first series could quite understandably become the Loki who tries to save the world in the second series in a short time. Just because it's scary. And if nothing is done about this "scary", then everything is gone (this was the case in the third Torah with the advent of Hela - Loki dramatically changed his tactics of behavior). And who's left to save the world? So Loki is working his ass off, while simultaneously dealing with his new girlfriend and their "cockroaches" in her head. "Staying is the hardest part." But Loki has something to fight for and something to lose, it's a different beast. He stays. I believe they'll show us the real Loki when things get really bad. Besides, Loki wasn't perceived as pure evil in the movies. No. He wants peace for everyone, but in his own way. He doesn't want extermination, he's not Thanos. He craves attention, respect, and love. This is the complex of the younger brother, who has been in the shadow of the elder all his life. And since everything is easy for the eldest by birthright, Loki has nothing left but manipulation, control, and the imposition of fear. However, as often happens in life, other people around you make you a different person. Therefore, one cannot compare Loki's relationship with Thor and Loki's relationship with Mobius. These are other roles.
As for the UVEI and their sudden empathy for the deaths that occur with the destruction of the branches, there is a huge miscalculation that, no matter how hard you try, you will not be able to explain. I do not believe that throughout the existence of the timeline, none of the agents thought: "Do we have the right to "play God" and decide who lives and who dies?". Now it looks like the agents "changed their shoes in the air" and SUDDENLY realized that they were doing something wrong. The viewer probably just has to come to terms with this plot.
Still, the series is not bad, compared to the latest Marvel movies, it's very watchable.
But Tom Hiddleston is expensive, so you have to talk through the exposition and immediately move the main plot.
And in episode 1 of season 1, I was thrilled with their power. For example, I was very struck by the scene where the infinity stones, which the characters ran after all the movies, were just garbage for them. It seemed like something new and powerful. But then they started sucking very quickly.
LF: "elegant", original: "rude"
LF: "... I'll put you back in the cube", original: "in Gizmo (device name). Do you want to be squeezed in a cube?"
LF: "Without you... it's hard", the original: "It's harder... stay"
And Loki is good - he even controls a shadow 😎
UB was a good character. It's nice that he wasn't hired for a single episode.
"I was following you" "No, I was following you" 😆
I hope all this damage will have a silver lining, like it will give the UVR more time to deal with the situation - open the doors, install that device...
By the way, if the UVR explodes, will the hinges still remain or what?
Next: we deleted the branches this time, and then what? A coup and take control and bring back the old order? After all, the ramifications can continue to repeat...
PS Lisa Arrin continues to frame everyone here 😆
When he uses his abilities, he'll blow his head off a thousand percent.
Although the moment of knocking out information was interesting.
And does anyone know what kind of disc she has in her hand?
- Where are we?
- I was following you.
- No, I was following you.
- Mobius. You were walking ahead
of me ahahahahahahahahhh
