I just saw the last episode of the Marvel mini-series Loki tonight.

It was pretty cool. During the main confrontation in the show, there were continued accusations that a character was lying which left some details in doubt. It certainly gives plenty of grist for a discussion by Marvel fans. I don’t think he was completely dishonest, but that’ll become more obvious as Marvel continues develop its Phase 4.

Some of the mysteries from earlier episodes weren’t really solved. They were just left in the dustbin and replaced by newer mysteries in episode 6. However, you don’t need to spell out everything in block letters to carry a story. More discussions…?

It was fun to watch it with my sister. We knew the story well enough that we didn’t have to keep asking each other questions about the plot. We’d been spending the last couple of weeks saying “Where are you?” “Have you seen episode 5?” etc. We did well at not revealing spoilers to each other. Once we were done, I paired my phone with the TV so that we could watch a few YouTube commentaries.

Mobius (Owen Wilson) is my favorite characters in the series. Mobius’s low-key humor and self-satisfaction were entertaining. He was always smug and one step ahead.

My favorite YouTube commentator is Emergency Awesome. It was nice that his videos make it easy to avoid spoilers. He also had videos about the trailers for the upcoming episodes, but I avoided those also.

It wouldn’t be a Marvel movie without an obligatory fight scene. The “green” flashes that were used later in the fight seemed to be “Oh yeah! I have a gun” during a sword fight. Why did the characters wait so long to pull out their magic?

Emergency Awesome said that he would be making commentaries of the upcoming What If…? Marvel animated series. imdb.com said that it’s 11 episodes would start August 11.
