W-4 and Phone Book

Amazing the things you find on the internet.

De's W-4 from 1954.

Happy to find the above as I was able to confirm this entry in the February 1955 phone book with the address. This was a small apartment complex built in 1940, 2 stories with 8 units. They moved here in 1953 after returning from NY in 1952 and staying with friends at first.

@cheer-deforest-kelley Another address for you!

I just rewatched Thor 1 (In honor of Loki for his birthday) and one of the main things I noticed was how few lines he actually had. He spoke so little you could almost count the amount of times he did actually speak. And it wasn't because he wasn't in the scene either. There were literally scenes where he either had one line or was just standing there. Obviously this changed closer to the end (not really). I also noticed how illogical people were in the movie on so many levels (*cough* Warriors 4 *cough*). This movie also (better than it intended) illustrated how little/poor Loki and Frigga's relationship really is. (And why I think Loki's reaction to her dying in Thor 2 was over exaggerated) Frigga could/did not help Loki during his mental breakdown and the sad part is that during Frigga's explanation scene, it was clear Loki knew she was lying. And even if she was telling the truth, it brough him no comfort. And after he shot Thor (she could have but it was just off screen) she didn't talk Loki down from destroying Jotunheim. If she did, she failed anyway so it reallydoesn't matter. She as a mother should have been able to stop him if you ask me. This is my short summary of the movie in which everyone and everything was stacked up against Loki for no logical reason, was in Thor's favor (who had no character development what so ever) and how Frigga and Odin are horrible parents. Speaking of Odin, why do he and Thor fight in every movie? Seriously this dude needs to figure out what he wants for his kids. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!

The fact that Loki has fewer lines and a lot of times he conveys his feelings and thoughts with his expression shows KB's genius choice in directing and Tom's wonderful acting skills. Because it's totally a deliberate choice to show how Loki is always in the shadows, unseen and unheard and also one of the ways to emphasize how his and Thor's personality contrast with each other.

Yeah W4 kept making accusations with no proof and dismissed Loki's points as mere jealousy and even his orders as a king just because they didn't like him and they wanted to drag their vulnerable human friend back home while they were on the brink of war. I think they relied on solving everything through battles so much that they weren't used to thinking logically.

This movie also (better than it intended) illustrated how little/poor Loki and Frigga's relationship really is. (And why I think Loki's reaction to her dying in Thor 2 was over exaggerated) Frigga could/did not help Loki during his mental breakdown and the sad part is that during Frigga's explanation scene, it was clear Loki knew she was lying. And even if she was telling the truth, it brough him no comfort.

I wouldn't say their relationship was poor, but rather complicated as it's the same in real world and in families where the children experience abuse. It's not really sth black and white. Loki loved Frigga even though he was hurt by her too, so I don't think his reaction was exaggerated in TDW. Frigga clearly understood how Loki felt to be in the shadows, shared her magic with him, but she didn't understand him enough to realize how deeply Loki was hurt by finding out the truth and how much Frigga's attempt at placating him hurt him too.

And after he shot Thor (she could have but it was just off screen) she didn't talk Loki down from destroying Jotunheim. If she did, she failed anyway so it really doesn't matter. She as a mother should have been able to stop him if you ask me.

I don't think there was time for her to talk Loki down. Most probably Loki went to the Bifrost as soon as he could. And Loki wasn't really in a state to listen to anyone as he didn't trust even her words when she said that they loved him. And parents can't always stop or persuade their children to do things. I don't think that's fair expectation to have from them specially when their child is an adult.

the movie in which everyone and everything was stacked up against Loki for no logical reason, was in Thor's favor (who had no character development what so ever)

I think that was a deliberate choice too because as the screenwriter of the movie said, if you see the events from Loki's pov, he is the hero and they wanted to show that how everyone is against him when he originally just wanted to save Asgard and the nine realms from Thor's rule.

Thor's character development was that he learned genocide is bad and learned humility from humans. The movie's problem regarding Thor's arc is that it's not clear how and why Thor learned genocide of Jotuns is bad, considering they were seen as monsters while humans were seen as ignorant and harmless. So how valuing human lives resulted in valuing Jotuns lives? I think in-universe, Thor doesn't really know the answer himself as it's a new concept for him. He is unable to answer Loki why he can't kill an entire race while Asgard always view people who did genocide as heroes.

Speaking of Odin, why do he and Thor fight in every movie? Seriously this dude needs to figure out what he wants for his kids.

Oh he knows what he wants for his kids. For them to obey him and agree with what he has planned for them. The problem is his kids have ideas of their own that is different from his plans for them! Outrageous! :D
