Today we are rewatching “Thor: The Dark World”. And, let’s admit, Loki is the only reason this movie is worth watching. I mean, I don’t feel anything about Thor’s relationship with Jane and they are almost the main part of the movie. Well, they, a quite good action (as always) and the idea of the importance of Infinity stones. And Loki. (Spoilers!) Even the opening scene, with him in chains still arguing with Odin is great (in its own way, of course, actually, my heart is bleeding while I watch it). And then, when Thor takes him from the prison – the scene with illusion is so moving! And then, his jokes are the only actual jokes in the whole movie! And later, when he “dies” (well, here I didn’t feel something special, because I knew that it was just a play for Thor) it’s also very impressive. To be honest, after that scene I’ve watched the rest of the movie “half-eyed”, the only scenes I was interested – Loki in the appearance of a guard talking to Odin, Loki in the appearance of Odin talking to Thor and mid-credit scene teasering “Guardians of the Galaxy”. So, I enjoyed half of the movie, the rest of just alright, but nothing special.
Darcy Lewis appreciation post because she’s amazing, funny and adorable 🥺❤️
The strongest evidence that the Battle of New York was a flop is that Loki could use the tesseract at any time.
"But Hlòriđi, just because he can use the tesseract that doesn't mean he could open it large enough for an entire army!"
Alright, let's say he can't...let's say he absolutely needs Eric Selvig, and whatever element he took from that party in Germany. Those are essential components.
Why not take Selvig to Thanos, at the very minimum after Selvig told him about the element, popping in, popping out, and opening the Battle of New York portal from the space side, because...it's a door, they open on both sides. Now that the battle is over, and he "lost" his safetest option is Asgard, the city with the impenetrable shield and is full of war gods and where Thanos didn't even try to attack with the Power Stone until after the planet was already destroyed. Or, now that he has the Space Stone he can evade Thanos forever on his own terms.
The moment you find out that the actor who plays Bootstrap Bill in Pirates of the Caribbean, plays Eric Selvig in Avengers.
1.5 years in this fandom and I'm only discovering this now?!
Hey, I hate to be a.. hater, but I never liked Jane Foster. Now I'm concussed at the moment and muddled as hell, but she seemed sort of unessential... unimportant.
Yeah okay, I get it she was important to the first film, and I gaurentee that if she and Thor weren't just shoved together, they would have been better as friends. They have no chemistry. Sure she's an astrophysicist, and he's from another ass planet, but what do they have in common? Yeah they broke up, and everyone understands why, they weren't right for each other. But the absolutely ruined her character with it, they made her relationship with Thor the only thing she is. And in my opinion, Dark World would have been better if the aether possessed Loki. Or Darcy. Hel even Selvig. Thor and Loki are brothers and a good way to show that Thor still cares would have been to show him fighting for him to live. They get the aether out, and Loki pretends to fake his death after getting stabbed last time. Perfect lead to Ragnarok, Loki still dies, and it ends up showing more of Thor's greif, losing his mother in the fight to save his brother, and losing his brother anyway.
Or Darcy. Thor has a thing for women who can take him down admit it. I'm not saying they should have been together, cause gods know Marvel would fuck up her character too. You can see in Thor's eyes that Darcy reminds him of Loki. Her wit, sarcasm and bluntness. She's like a little sister to him. He would do anything to save her. Tell me I'm wrong.
Selvig was made to remind Thor of Odin. Not a lot. But they have that sort of relationship. And he and Odin could have had that type of relationship if he had focused on being a good father and raising both his kids instead of grooming both for success and only allowing one to take the throne, and at the time it being the the one the least capable of it. They would have had a similar dynamic of Odin had done that.
All these people have a real relationship with Thor and the only way for Jane to be relavent was shove them in a relationship. And only because Thor's the 'dumb blond' and Jane's a genius, Eric and Darcy are bystanders, and Loki's the bad guy.
I don't have much knowledge on the Marvel comics. But that's what I've gathered from the movies. Jane was unnecessary (I forgot the word earlier) to the movies and if she and Thor weren't in a relationship I would feel less strongly on the topic than I do now.
But that could just be cause I ship thordall.
BUT WHY THE EVERLOVING FUCK WERE DARCY LEWIS, LADY SIF, AND ERIC SELVIG NOT IN ENDGAME
LIKE NOT EVEN IN THE CREDITS
