I guess 10 minutes of screentime didn’t warrant it?
Sorry, I had to.
Uhm, I’m sure there is a technical reason for this, but I’ll go with:
-he isn’t an Avenger
-he isn’t the name of a franchise (like RDJ as Iron Man, Evans as Captain America, etc.)
-he isn’t a major part of the movie
-Marvel is full of dumbos who thought they had a second class character but hired a first class actor to play him and then didn’t properly explore said character when said actor gave the world an intriguing, complex, and fascinating portrayal that goes beyond anything else said dumbos have put on screen
Not sorry.
Kevin Feige said all this shit after Thor and The Avengers about how they were “putting their chips on Loki” because the movies wouldn’t work if Loki wasn’t a compelling villain… but his popularity took off beyond what they wanted him for. They intended him to be a function, not really a character. But when your Shakespearean director hires another Shakespearean actor, you’re going to get a character – and one who’s more interesting than the characters you’re trying to foreground. So they did their best in Ragnarok and IW to reduce him back to a function.
Loki is the Philosopher King
