Loki LAUFEYSON and not Odinson. Nice touch to differentiate that he's a bit more evil than the dead one in the Prime timeline.
Also damn Tom Hiddleston hasn't really aged since Avengers has he
Love the idea. Tough to get something to clash as hard as the actual logo with the dextures and lighting and colors available etc, but you got pretty close.
Sidenote, the show director confirmed today that this is not a mephisto reference, they just had a bit of satan imagery because Loki is also a god cast out of heaven etc
Hah, really making sure we don't get any repeats of Wandavision.
It's really unfortunate, I still see people going like "Will MoM live up to Wandavision's failed promises?" as if the entire point of Wandavision was to set up Mephisto and FoX-Men mutants and it's just....gah.
Hahaha, I noticed that in the video, too, wtf? I legit can't tell if it's just because of how weird Wilson talks, because it definitely sounds like they chopped something together.
Excited to see where this show takes us. I'm all for dimension and timeline hopping craziness.
Pretty sure we might see Utopia for the first time in this show before it appears again in Doctor Strange.

Technically it's tonight if you want to stay up until 1:50 AM CST.
Wouldn't it be 2:50 CST for the end of the episode? Premiere is at 12 pacific which is 2 central.
Isn't Laufeyson his real name regardless of what Loki calls himself? The TVA would use his birth name just like if he met Red Skull guarding the Soul Stone.
I doubt it's to differentiate him from the dead Loki, just stating a fact/Easter egg that some might have forgotten

Don't know what the original ot title was but I'm guessing it was bad lol. Either way time to inject more Marvel into my veins. I work till 4am so I'll have to watch it as soon as I get home from work.

It turned out to be a sexist joke from a known shithead (not sure why the original OP went with it, to be honest). Fortunately, I was made aware of it quickly & the change was made to the title you see now.
Watching the Loki recap episode for Marvel Legends now, and I forgot about Loki crying as he's threatening Thor before the final fight in the first Thor. He is really is a fantastic character. I'm actually ok with him being retconned into being influenced by his scepter in The Avengers to explain his more straight-up evil tendencies in that movie.
My best guess is that this show's version of Loki starts to get redeemed a bit when he learns about Freya dying in Thor 2 and the Asgardians being nearly wiped out in Ragnarok/Infinity War. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up trying to use the TVA to his benefit, only for the reveal to be that he's trying to save his mother from dying before being forced to accept her death.

The first 2 are 50 something minutes each. I'm hoping they're all basically the same.
With all the run times added up were Wandavision and Falcon & Winter Soldier roughly equivalent across the series?
Would be fun if they had Loki transform into different forms for different episodes.
Older, female, kid, animal? etc.

Even though I kinda hate the original Thor movie, the two scenes of that film I actually enjoyed were that scene, and then of course Loki's breakdown in front of Odin when he realizes he's half-Jotun. Hiddleston absolutely brought it in those two scenes, and they're basically the only reasons it made sense or them to have Branagh direct the movie.

Loki is canonically listed as genderfluid in the MCU as of recently, so there's reason to be hopeful for Lady Loki.
I hate these midnight PDT drops, it's 3 AM here on the east coast when it actually releases. I won't have time to watch this until until that evening, so I have to spend the day dodging spoilers everywhere. /whine
Super excited for the series, though - I love time shenanigans, I'm really excited to see Marvel do more of them.

We're finally getting another show. The wait felt much longer than it really was. I am totally excited for tomorrow (for this and PSO2 NGS)!
The Space Stone they ended up getting in the Time Heist was from the Seventies. They had to make another time travel trip because Loki escaped with it in their first attempt.

OP
The Space Stone Steve put back was from the 70's (Tony took it from a SHIELD outpost where Howard Stark & Hank Pym were at the time). The 2012 Space Stone was their first botched attempt after 2012 Hulk barged in angry about taking the stairs & caused the open briefcase holding the Space Stone to slide over to Loki.
Oh wow. Is it because he made big pauses between words and they wanted to cut it to make it faster? What the hell haha
I'm particularly looking forward to writer Michael Waldron's contributions between this and Multiverse of Madness, especially since the latter had to be reportedly rewritten from scratch when he and Raimi came in. He's mentioned in interviews wanting to touch on the time travel introduced in Endgame and between both it really seems like he's gonna be the architect for how alternate timelines and dimensions work in the MCU, which sounds really exciting.

If you mean the Avengers in general, Steve put the Stones back from the moment they were taken. So chronologically, it was like they never left (as Hulk said). If you mean Steve spending his life with Peggy, it's likely because he didn't take an Infinity Stone from its intended place in history (which, as the Ancient One said, creates time branches that break reality). Mobius even mentioned in one of the trailers that taking the Space Stone was what broke reality.
