Jonathan Majors is great.

 

[Cogburn]

Well.

Season 2 please.

 

[Hivemind]

We never got to see Owen Wilson say “wow” while riding a jet ski

 

[Cole Caulifield]

Best marvel TV show by far. Liked every minute of it.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Great ending. Jonathan Majors will be an excellent big bad in the movies. This is a great setup for his appearance on the big screen.

Surprised that there will be a second season but I'm into it.

... but it closed by announcing during the credit sequence that the Marvel series would return for a second season, which explains all the loose ends left dangling across its timeline.

So would Season 2 come out in 2022? With Kang’s big screen debut slated for the third Ant-Man in 2023, that would make sense.

Season 2 must set up Kang we will see there as the main villain.

 

[Very Stable Genius]

Well that was quite the dud of an ending episode. Seems like they sacrificed it to expand the MCU.

Another thing I read this week is when we see Frog Thor, if you listen carefully you supposedly here him make noise, like grunting to get to Mjolnir the director said that she actually got Hemsworth to record the noises! Chris Hemsworth Had a Blink-and-You’ll-Miss-It Loki Cameo

It wasn't only their best show, but the best thing Marvel Studios has done.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

That's..... Quite a take.

You wanted a big cgi fight didn't you?

 

[BaconNater]

Great show.

However I worry about my simple mind trying to keep up with how the MCU is going to go from here.. guess we shall see

 

[Jussi]

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Loki will be on Multiverse Of Madness.

 

[Power Man]

So they merged He Who Remains and Kang?
Or is He Who Remains a variant of Kang?
Either way, he was goofy and annoying AF

No, he's one version of Kang. The one that doesn't turn into Kang The Conqueror. Sylvie killing him leads into that creation.

That was the best finale and ultimately the best show of the three so far (I thought other two were also great) but I also feel like it was the least conclusive or possibly least satisfying of the finales because it's more of a cliff-hanger.

Also not to nitpick but does anyone else think the new villain was too cartoonish and goofy to be taken seriously? There were some moments where he felt a bit menacing so maybe a variant of him will be different but I dunno, felt like an older more cinematic actor would've been more of a presence. Richard E Grant come to think of it, he has a villainous face too.

Either way, excited for Dr Strange 2 or Loki 2 or wherever the hell we're going on this wild ride. You guys remember movies like Civil War when having a superhero fight blew our minds? Ah a simpler time.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Even if it was mostly stalling, does the fact that it was "good" stalling and I enjoyed it make it "good"?

In a sense, the Lokis were given the only free choice that could be made in this universe, and it was reduced to a 30 second fist fight at the end of the last episode, and they didn't even have Tom Hiddleston Loki commit to keeping He Who Remains, only that we should "think about it". When this should be the central conflict of the show! At least they thematically brought up this idea of free will, being damned before you've done anything wrong, etc. repeatedly so it wasn't out of nowhere nor thematically irrelevant like the Agatha reveal in WandaVision.

Once again, ever since the dud of Civil War, they've brought up interesting ideas and then done nothing with them. At least the stalling here was interesting. A fight in a Wal-Mart about to be obliterated by a super hurricane, a colony of people all doomed to die to an asteroid, these are aesthetically interesting set pieces much more interesting than "Look, we're doing a rip off of Modern Family with Marvel characters!".

Also not to nitpick but does anyone else think the new villain was too cartoonish and goofy to be taken seriously?

He was the "good" version of himself. Also, he was from the 31st century, so his enunciation was off, like he was trying to do an English accent with an American voice (which also subtly hinted, in the moment, that he shouldn't be trusted).

Keep in mind this version of Kang is dead, and whoever we see will be a more evil variant of this one. Look at the various Loki deviants we saw.

It adds to the intrigue since we got a glimpse of his personality but the next time we see him it will be probably be a more terrifying version who might show a bit more unhinged psychotic behaviour.

Even in his explanation Kang noted that while some variants of himself wanted to learn, others were keen on domination. He was the only only to discover Aolith and leverage him to create the sacred timeline. With that version of Kang dead, one of the more violent and evil versions has take over, as evident by the statue we saw at the end of the episode.

As you said though we are going on one hell of a ride in the next phase of the MCU. I loved this show and the other two before it.

ah ok

[BertCorbeau]

The next Spider-Man and Dr Strange movies just got a hell of a lot more interesting

 

[Static]

The talking endings are so much better than the fighting endings.

 

[Power Man]

The next Spider-Man and Dr Strange movies just got a hell of a lot more interesting

Totally
I’m really looking forward to those 2 movies
