First 2 episodes were good but the second 2 were a big step down. Owen and Hiddleston can only carry you too far before you realize the plot (like almost all time travel plots) falls apart the minute you look at it critically. Sure, there's always room (and probably a deserved expectation) for suspension of disbelief, but I expected better for explaining ThE MuLtIVeRsE. Maybe it's just me and I'm sick of time travel bullshittery. Falcon and Winter soldier kinda stumbled in the middle but ended up fine, hopefully this will too.

Agreed…I was wondering what happened after she essentially bombed the timeline.

I think the bombs were just to distract the TVA agents.

Same. I’m looking forward to 6, but I’m almost predisposed to thinking there can be no satisfying conclusion to this world they’ve created.

It’s like Lost all over again.

Liked it in that it sets up things coming up in future movies, as well as the future of Loki.

Kang is not to be fucked with.

His variants are going to be a real problem in the next MCU phase.

I can see why people wouldn't like this episode. As a season finale, it was pretty bad. Lots of talking by someone we haven't seen before and aren't invested in.

I loved it. Honestly had no idea the last guy was Kang, but he was awesome. Actor, dialogue - I thought it was perfect.

The unresolved questions are my issue and effectively negate the entire events of the Avengers movies. And the guy who created the TVA would be light years ahead of a guy like Thanos given what we saw of the infinity stones earlier in the season. Maybe that’s all addressed in the comics but it seems like a total reset of the past decade of storytelling.

Loved the series, concept, writing, acting, the whole enchilada.

Loki will appear in Doc Strange 2

Yeah I liked the episode and season as a whole

I was kind of surprised they actually did introduce Kang in this, knowing he's the main villain in the next Ant Man movie.

Given his power, he seems wasted on ant man movie.

They're lucky Jonathan Majors did a good job hamming it up, because they should have cut that giant exposition dump in 1/2. Show, don't tell and all that. The production design and casting knocked it out of the park, but the action scenes were kinda lacking. There's way too much blue screen in movies (or TV show in this case), and there has been for too long.

Liked it overall, but I think Marvel is getting too dependent on the time travel stuff.

Kind of.

I imagine it will be out late spring 2023.

2 years between seasons is quite the gap for a tv show, but it’s pretty normal for MCU movie sequels.

Well it’s been so long since season 1 that Jonathan Majors got cancelled in between. Sucks for him, seems good in this. Its fine so far, although it could use way more of the title character in it.

$1.99 a month and they still can't get people to watch this garbage. Loki Woman works at McDonald's now and Kang dies...again. :lol:

I've been enjoying season two more than season one. Maybe because most of the episodes thus far have either featured Loki, or Loki and Mobius, and I'm sexist.

Season 2 was great. GotG and this show are the best things since Avengers.

Who would have guessed the way to save Marvel Studios was to hire Owen Wilson and the guy who played Short Round?

It had a pretty good ending. All the D+ shows have weird pacing, some episodes drag ass and some rush through important plot points in a minute.
