When Loki said "trust my rage." He meant that even though Thor usually can't trust him, he can at this time because he is enraged over their mother's death.

Frigga is not Loki's actual mom, though he does have a closer relationship with her than with the rest of his adopted family. Loki's magic is not inherent to him, he's not born with it. She is a very powerful magic-wielder in her own right, and she taught him how to use magic.

[@vly9257]

I agree, the "reason" for this movie is to build flexibility in the way we (the audience) feel about Loki, by showing the brotherly nature of Thor and Loki's relationship

[@twilightdream]

I feel the same way. Loki is one of my favorite characters, and his relationship with Thor is also one of my favorites and how it’s further developed in movies like Ragnarok and Infinity War.

The 'Another!' cup smashing thing has historical roots, kinda. In reality, sometimes when a toast had been made, they'd smash to cup to make sure no greater toast could be drunk from it.

[@talidelabocha9675]

I have a few small FunFacts that you may have overlooked. When Thor comes back to earth, Jane isn't played by Natalie Portmann, but by Chris Hemsworth's wife Elsa Pataki. She was there during the shoot and whenever it came to the kissing scene, all 3 had to laugh so hard that the director ordered Elsa to grab a wig and play Jane. The other fact is the scene where Jane slaps Loki. In fact, Thor can be seen flinching slightly there. Loki's saying that he likes Jane comes from Loki knowing that Thor also got a slap or two in the face.

[@alexhefnerstvmovievault]

That’s such a cool fact! Love that!!

[@radicalreactions1633]

Jane PUNCHES Loki, that wasn't a slap. Tom admitted that she clocked him one and that HE enjoyed it. It comes from the fact that Loki likes strong women, it has zero to do with Thor, in fact Loki's clearly flirting with Jane in the background after getting punched.

[@amberkiely8521]

Lokis character is AMAZING. its so complex. Even automatically pushing Jane out of the way. Jane doesn't even LIKE him but because he admires her he INSTANTLY sacrifices himself, no question, because secretly he WANTS her to like him, he wants anyone to like him. Despite his sarcastic and uncaring attitude to everyone, he is desperate to be loved, to have someone to save.

[@emilyrln]

Yes! In addition to caring about Jane for her own sake, I think Loki also cares about her for Thor's sake because he loves his brother and wants him to be happy.

Loki is glorious, and I am... _beyond_ happy that he's got a Disney+ series, with a second season already in the works. Tom Hiddleston as Loki... can be pretty horrible in what he does, but he is just _such_ a wonderful character, and even just the first episode of Loki breaks my heart. No watching it until you make it up through Endgame, though! Also, I love the fact that the reason Loki survived in this movie was because the test audiences just... _didn't_ believe that he was actually dead. They'd planned to let Loki go at that point, but everyone who saw it was just like "Yeah, he's playing a game."

[@MrZomg17]

When Loki sacrificed himself for Jane he became worthy

[@user-lc3wy7ih8f]

23:00 I laughed so hard. "I have never flip-flopped between if I love or hate a character this much" lmao join the club. I watch this movie purely for the Loki scenes he is so funny but also very emotionally damaged but also a badass who is willing to sacrifice himself for the people he loves. I enjoy a complex morally grey character who's unpredictable and has cool magic powers. Btw, he didn't fake his death, he almost died but must have regained consciousness later on and saw an opportunity to avoid being thrown back in jail, so he took it. Isn't it interesting that Loki as Odin offers Thor the throne, and only keeps it when Thor refuses? The reaction when you said Odin's a good dad, but found out it's actually Loki 2 seconds later is so funny. Tbh Loki makes a better dad than Odin. Actually saying he's proud, something Loki has probably never heard from him his whole life. I think Loki is right to take Odin's place after that man called his own son a prisoner and said his birthright was to die. Oh great remind him that his parents didn't want him, as if he didn't already have severe issues and tried to k*ll himself not that long ago. They don't even ask what happened to Loki when he fell through the void for who knows how long. They'd just rather lock him away for 4000 years wtf.

[@Stephanie-es7wv]

[@radicalreactions1633]

No, Loki FAKES HIS DEATH, that's all over the interviews about them having to bring him back because they were afraid of the fan backlash. And Loki IS NOT ODIN'S SON, he was Laufey's son. We don't know whether his father wanted him or not, it's just bullshit repeated because fans truly believe what Odin says and they shouldn't, he's a narcissistic sociopath.

[@wolfe6220]

Alex: Thor and Odin seeing eye to eye *laughs* Me: *smirks in Ragnarok*

[@KakashHatak3]

Someone probably already answered your question about the funerals but just in case I'll answer too. If a viking died in battle, they would be sent to sea on a boat (or their own boat) and the boat would be filled with goods(if they where higher ranking/more important they would have better goods). The boat would then be set on fire, and a Valkyrie would come and take the dead to Valhalla(Viking heaven for those who died in battle).

Really?!?

[@brazelton13]

Actually it was in the Chris Evans Cap costume, because Tom Hiddleston just really wanted to wear it, and it mostly fit but was too short 🤣 but Tom did the scene and then Chris just copied Tom, so you have Loki being cap on screen.

[@robertfalk3767]

So, at the end, that was a character called The Collector. As the name implies, the dude collects things. The rarer, the better. He'll come up again later. He's also played by Benicio Del Toro, a very.... unique acting talent. Also remember that Loki is the God Of Mischief. His greatest power is deception and guile. I am so hyped for you going through the MCU, by release date, every week. There is so much more amazing shit to come.

I've been a big fan of the idea of them exploring the relationship between Thor and Sif in the movies; In the comics Sif is one of Thor's most prominent partners (behind Jane Foster) and I just prefer their dynamic much better; Jaime Alexander is beautiful, she looked very good next to Chris, they have good chemistry in their limited scenes and in interviews for this movie she talked about how an earlier version of the script was going to lean even more into showing Sif feelings for Thor which she has had for a loooooong time.

[@toxikelement1372]

This is one of my favorites. I think most people don't like it just because they're not interested in back stories very much. They just want to get to the "good sh*t" action fight stuff that is all the other movies. The story was great, it's just that no one has patience anymore since most movies that had come out over the years have less and less substance. The elves were outstanding, well written character development and more insight into them as brothers. Loki even saved Thor's life. Yes, Loki also got stabbed for real and used the opportunity to escape. MCU had planned on Loki dying. It was a legit emotional scene for them. Then at first showing people were saying how "there's no way Loki's dead. He got out." REFUSING to believe that was real. That's when they decided to write and shoot the ending of him showing up in Asgard etc. This info I got from watching a live interview with Tom Hiddleston.❤
