May. 10th, 2011 06:27 am1. Loki is basically Percy Weasley to me. A super-conflicted, morning sunshine turning into a wintery mix of betrayal and treachery in the afternoon Percy Weasley. Also, a natty dresser.
This means that I love him and his manpain a lot.
2. The implications of Loki being pass-offable as an Asgardian in this are fascinating to me because dude, the Frost Giants! They look nothing like Asgardians! And the baby that we see in the movie is totally Frost Giant blue. And it keeps up even after Loki finds out that he's an FG and is outed by Thor. So you have to assume that the Frost Giant blue is Loki's "natural state" and all his little human skin and so forth is magic laid on top or through-and-through shapeshifting, a la the proper original. Can other Frost Giants shapechange in this movie? Is it something from Odin? Has Loki ever seen himself in his "natural" shape" is? Are all Frost Giants capable of badass magic like Loki?
I mean, there is a bit where Thor and Co. are fighting the Frost Giants, and Loki gets froze a bit, and he looks down, and his arm goes back to being what it was. What was the way he explained this to himself afterwards?
All of these things are interesting and painful and metaphorical and I love them a lot.
3. DIDN'T PEOPLE REALIZE THAT THE PUTATIVE MOM WAS ONLY PREGNANT ONCE? Unless they were passed off as . . . twins?
4. I want Loki's adventures on Earth where he learns how to be a natty dresser like you see in the interrogation booth. :D The Hive was suggesting maybe this was because he was living inside the skin of somebody who was a natty dresser. :D I love it. :D
