Loki Season 2 comes to a climax as one of the most complex and well-performed characters gets a very fitting ending (it appears), and my guest Anne and I get into every detail along the way, as we discuss the writing, direction, costuming, and other choices made and how they impact the story as a whole.
The branches get much more literal.
It’s the penultimate episode of Loki Season 2, and Anne and I have quite a bit to discuss, from the gorgeous camerawork to the rise of the God of Stories. Take a listen, and let us know what you think!
I have a feeling we’ll be hearing this line from Tom Hiddleston’s mouth soon.
Continuing our Deep Dive on the second season of Loki, we’ve reached Episode 4. But with that ending, is it the last episode? No, but we’ll discuss our theories on what happens this episode, see where theories went right or wrong from past episodes, and what happens next.
In the episode, we discuss some Soviet-era mosaics and specifically mention a website to view some of them. Said website can be found here.
One particularly appropriate example, in case you don’t have time to click the link above…
The Deep Dive of Season 2 of Loki continues with Guest Anne Valliant. There is much costume discussion, as well as World’s Fair history, as we look at the episode that takes place almost entirely in the year that it’s named after…1893.
The production team did a great job recreating the Ferris Wheel (actual photo seen here)
Did we get an appearance from Turner D. Century? (Maybe, but probably not…)
Continuing our Deep Dive of Season 2 of Loki. Guest Anne Valliant returns from Season 1 to join me for this episode as we discuss the little easter eggs, the production design, the costumes, and of course, the plot and character development. The hair flip counter continues, and we learn…Who is The Phone Ranger?
Anne’s reaction is…well, pretty much what you’d expect.
The “Zaniac” as seen in the Marvel Comic Books…
and the movie poster seen early in the episode. Pretty spot on…
Yes kids, McDonald’s used to actually look like that.
We’re starting a new Deep Dive, but it’s our first continuation, as we discuss Season 2 of Loki. Guest Dennis Riddle joins me for this episode as we discuss the new characters, the new situations, and of course, any comic book connections. Plus, how many hair flips does Loki do?
Let’s go!
Kang the Conqueror makes his first full appearance in the MCU with Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania, which came out earlier this weekend. But who is Kang, and what makes him so threatening that he’ll be the next Big Bad after Thanos? Learn his comic book history, including his many aliases by listening to this episode.
Damn, early 60s Janet is thirsty! Also, thank you Marvel Studios for adapting the Kang Lounge Chair.
Narrator voice: No, he is not.
Why you hittin’ yourself? Why you hittin’ yourself?
Okay. Maybe early 60s Janet had a point…
Just a few of the Avengers seen in “Avengers Forever.” Go read it!
With the Loki show diving into one of Kurt’s favorite subjects (Time Travel), of course he’s going to dive deep into the show as well, looking at all the comic book connections, and theorizing with his guest, Anne V. This first episode we discuss the TVA, Mobius, and all the little moments that made the show so much fun.
Mark Gruenwald, the original face of…
Mobius M. Mobius (Not sure what the M stands for, but I can guess…)
Ravonna (the judge in the show) is…just a little different…in the comics.
