Another big difference for me, and surely this boils down to personal preference, is that I cared more about these characters (and the impact of the sequence on the overall Cinematic Universe) much more than I cared about whatever was going on with Morpheus and whoever, so it was more interesting on those merits alone.

It might be true to some extent but the writing in this show was mostly outright spelling out what characters think/feel and explaining what's happening. That's hardly sublime storytelling by any standards. WandaVision, for all its flaws, managed to portray character's inner struggles in more subtle, complex and interesting way. And that's despite its main plot. Compared to this, it was The Wire. Felt like it actually had something to say. This feels mostly like a set up for other stuff. And no, I don't care about the Architect either. My point was this was just as lame and lazy. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jay 39,156 Posted July 16, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2021 The biggest crime this show did for me was drastically underutilizing Owen Wilson. He was great and the character he was playing had potential to be really interesting, but then he disappeared for half the show and never got to realize all the potential that was there. I hope he's a much bigger part of season 2, and they write to Owen Wilson's strengths more! mstrox, Once and Edmilson 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed it at that time and the acting and production were fine but it didn’t feel more than the sum of its parts. I did enjoy the music though. A little eclectic at times but think I’ll invest in the albums (which are pleasingly not every single note but seem to be curated albums). I think too many years of time travel and end of the universe Doctor Who stories means that such an apocalyptic setup seems a bit meh. I mean. The universe will be saved.

Knight of Ren 967 Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 First episode of S2 already released! I recently rewatched the first season, and I think it's one of the best things Marvel has done after Endgame, even if it has some flaws, and I found the finale a bit underwhelming. Even so, it was so much fun and this new episode continued this, with some unexpected twists and turns, but also lots of great comedy between Tom Hiddelston, Owen Wilson and the new character played by Ke Huy Quan! The main set piece near the end of the episode was quite emotional as well, and the show has already hooked me for the rest of the season! I hope they can do justice to Kang an establish him as a proper threat, because so far his appearances on Loki S1 and Quantumania haven't approached the same level of power and mystery that Thanos had in his first appearances. Natalie Holt's music continues to be great, and I think all the main themes from the first season returned in the episode, with the exception of Loki and Sylvie's theme, which I hope gets expanded upon, because it's one of my favorite parts of her score!

Popular Post Knight of Ren 967 Posted October 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2023 If I'm not mistaken, what played there was what I call Loki's Nordic theme, which is a sort of emotional theme for the character, usually played in that instrument, which I think it's called a nyckelharpa: And Loki and Sylvie's theme played only a couple of times during the first season, most notably during their kiss: But it isn't always so clear what the themes really represent so who knows...

tomsmoviemadness 3,466 Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Loki - Season 2 x Ep. 1 The MCU has had a rough time lately. For a lot of people the films have been hit or miss and some of the series were really bad. I actually really enjoyed and partly loved chunks of Phase 4. Phase 5 got of to a rocky start with Quantumania. A film which didn't work on multiple levels. Then Guardians Of The Galaxy, Vol. 3 was fantastic and felt like a step in the right direction. But then came Secret Invasion, which was a waste of time, momey, actors and a waste of some of the best source material in comics. It was just bad. I was a bit scared for S2 of Loki because the creative team has fully changed. Especially director Kate Herron made an impact on S1. But I have to say that after Ep. 1 this show is just as good and maybe even better than S1. It has very high stakes, great humor, fantastic production design and effects, awesome (new) characters and just an overall feel that everything was thought out really well. Loki has always been one of my favorite characters of the MCU ever since his introduction. He is very interesting and Tom Hiddleston just oozes charisma. He IS Loki! The supporting cast is also great. Owen Wilson is great especially his chemistry with Hiddleston. Wunmi Mosaku adds a lot of gravitas to her role which I really enjoy. The addition of Ke Huy Quan is maybe the best thing about the episode. He is fun, funny and really gells with the whole vibe of the show. He's spectacular! Kang hasn't even showed up, but he already feels threatening. Something which wasn't the case in Quantumania at all. I'm excited about the rest of the series and hope the emotion and stakes continue throughout. It's been a while since I felt that in the MCU. Natalie Holt's music remains incredibly strong. The synths and choir parts were especially impressive. Can't wait for the music in future episode and the albums! Jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
