Good second episode, except the brief moment at the end. Built up what the other Loki variant was up to and set up a pretty big cliffhanger.
Click To View Spoiler Female Loki
IMDB has her listed for 5 episodes, so this doesn't look like a one-off event. |

I must have zoned out for a second and missed something. How did Loki figure out Alabama 2050 as the spot Loki was hiding? He talked about the blue gum, and cross referencing something?

It's why they went to Pompeii and he created a ruckus. The gum identified the point in time, they only needed for the corresponding event. |

TY all for spoiler tags... Didn't realize the 2nd episode aired before I started reading.

Fucking spoiler tags. What a PITA just to read the thread. Can’t we just discuss the show without worrying about some sensitive types who haven’t seen it? WTF are they even doing in this thread if they A) Haven’t seen the show and B) Don’t want to be “spoiled”? Geez, fuck ‘em!

I liked the opening scene and I liked the closing scene. Pretty much everything in between was mostly "eh," IMO.
Loki swatting at Miss Minutes was funny though. |

I really hope that "female Loki" wasn't the Enchantress because the Enchantress is supposed to be sex on a stick and in that scene she had about as much sex appeal as a Walmart greeter.
Speaking of which: anyone else notice that for women and gay guys the MCU is filled with eye candy, but for straight men we pretty much just have Elizabeth Olson? |

Next episode is gonna be real interesting based off of those little timeline resetting bombs she planted.

Quoted: Within the first minute we get a powerful black woman who doesn’t put up with a white males bullshit. In this case, a gender fluid white male god. She then proceeds to brutalize him with a baton, in slow motion no less. I guess Loki is only a God when the script calls for it. Not long after, we get a strong Latina women who looks eerily similar to AOC as a judge. Guuuurl power! Luckily a CIS white male (Owen Wilson) is able to mansplain to her why they need Loki, much to the powerful black womenz char-grin. I hope you guys like your weekly dose of subtle SJWism. I personally watch now to see how subtle or not subtle it’s getting. So far, I’d give Loki a B+ for keeping white male hate relatively low key where people with sub 100 IQs are not seeing past the BS. View Quote I have a feeling your screen name doesn’t check out. |

This is by far the best post-endgame series that the MCU has put out.
It’s the first one I’ve watched and enjoyed. |

2nd episode was a lot better than the first. I hate every TVA character with a passion except Moebius/Owen Wilson. I don't know if TVA are intended to be so dislikable.
Hiding before disasters to not alter timelines was a neat concept.

View Quote Floki looked pretty enough, though not sexy or not yet I guess. Dunno anything about Enchantress. While I agree Elizabeth Olsen is top, come on there's still Scarlet, Colbie Smulders, Haley Atwell and others. Granted not much of those seen and not many fanservice shots anymore. |

I don't think Lady Loki is the Enchantress. I hope they save the Enchantress for Thor, as she's typically in his rogue's gallery.
I think if you look at "Into the Spiderverse" - it sets the bar. In different realities or timelines, characters can look wildly different. Exhibit A: Peter Parker, Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, etc are their reality's Spider hero. I think Marvel tested the waters with that movie to see how comic book adaptation of characters would be accepted by mainstream audiences (I.e. non-comic book reading audiences). That movie hit critical acclaim, so they got the answer they were looking for. It's a good movie too, I recommend it. Here we have a couple options: 1) All Loki variants stem from the main MCU Loki, and they're doing the shapeshifter thing, per mythology upon which the character is based. 2) All Loki variants stem from different realities that don't necessarily stem from the "sacred timeline" or when they do stem from said sacred timeline, reality is somehow altered, so that variants like Lady Loki can exist. If this is the case, then there's something going on with the TVA that we're not yet privy to (which is highly likely). 3) Something else I haven't figured out because I don't have enough information (also highly likely). I thought it was interesting that Lady Loki had powers that MCU variant Loki doesn't have - the ability to possess people. Her appearance baffled me too. I wasn't expecting the blonde talk to the manager haircut. In the comics, she looked a lot like Cate Blanchett's Hela, which is probably what drove the creative choice for blonde hair here. I do agree that she's just average and not "Uber hot", but I don't necessarily need to see Bimbo Loki running around either. The other creative choice is that Marvel is distracting us with Lady Loki so we don't start asking lots of questions about the TVA and the Time Keepers. I suspect we may not get an answer on this. In WandaVision, we got a very soft answer that Wanda is a "nexus being" that reappears at different points in time (either as a reincarnation or host, I don't know). But it sounded a lot like they lifted the Phoenix and rebranded it as the Scarlett Witch. I'm beginning to think that although Loki has engaged Moebius in some of the bigger questions about the Time Keepers and their true plans, we may not get an answer there. I hope I'm wrong. |

I think the female Loki is pretty hot. And to be honest I would rather have a decent looking great actress than some perfect 10. Because of the job that hiddlestan has done as Loki any variants had better be awesome.
Something fishy is going on with the tva. That scene with Owen Wilson and the judge lady was laying it on thick. |

So, fuck disney.
But also, I like their MCU stuff. Solution: Torrent the show. Deny them membership and viewership. Profit. |

Quoted: Serious question, ignoring how weak the storylines have been in nearly all things disney why would anyone support that leftist extremist organization? View Quote You know what? I despise completely every single professional, semi professional, and college sportsball teams, I mean ALL of them. I despised them long before they became the obvious in your face SJW, anti American garbage heap they are today. I hated them long before the overpaid sportsball team players began to complain how they are treated while ignoring the large sums of money they get paid to play sportsball. But do you know what I don't do. I don't go into a sportsball team discussion thread and try to pretend that my animosity towards the sportsball some how or another makes me a better person than the people who enjoy the sportsball team. Or that those who enjoy the sportsball are lesser beings. Do you know why that is? It is because, while I am strong in my beliefs and the stands that I take, I am not a week minded cowardly jerk that thinks my views are so much more stronger and "right" that everyone has to believe, and practice the exact as me. Take the hint and move on. |

I fell asleep somewhere between the 4th or 5th scene where loki and owen wilson were busy in flipping through piles of files and books, talking (and talking) - and the scene where loki has another long conversation with another character about boring shit.
So the other loki is a woman is that what I missed? Who could ever have had seen that coming? That can only mean that either a talking animal or a baby are going to be introduced next week. Id say a talking car could be next but the sentient clock face hologram thing (much cute! such t-shirt!) will cover that base. |
