Looks pretty groovy.  I really liked Season 1, right up until that last episode with Mr. Exposition Dump taking a huge dump all over everything.  So after that, I'm keeping expectations in check.  But it looks like Waymond adds a fun little role, and Mo and Lo are back together, so it could be cool.

I'm really intrigued by Ke Huy Quan's OB, and I can't wait to see how much he'll be in the show. Hopefully more than just a couple of scenes or just one episode. Maybe for you, Orbert, this season's variant of Kang, Victor Timely, will be a bit more exciting. Personally, I liked how lowkey the final episode of season one was. There was no bloated CGI battle, no sky beams, no hokey dialog - just world building, and something that legitimately impacts the whole MCU with lasting repercussions that we've seen (unlike some other MCU D+ show endings).

It was Loki lowkey and different, which in that way was good.  And it was interesting enough, but it felt like instead of getting some kind of conclusion, we got a very long introduction to the next big thing, whatever that is, and then him literally telling them that it wasn't the conclusion of anything, but instead an introduction to the next big thing.  So in that way it was disappointing.

Hard to imagine it topping Secret War, but should be good either way.

Phew!  For a second there, I was thinking Secret Invasion and was wondering.

You mean Secret Invasion? Avengers: Secret Wars isn't out yet, and that's a film, not a series.

Either way, with all the delays in MCU content, Loki Season 2 might be the best Disney+ MCU content this year. I'm definitely more hyped for this than I was for Secret Invasion.

Dunno how I typed what I did.  Must have had a case of the Schmeglands.  Meant Secret Invasion.

Personally thought Secret Invasion was the worst MCU film or series so far (yup even worse than Eternals).

I've avoided watching any reviews online as some folks have been able to review episodes 1-4 already.

I've been waiting for this for over two years and now the time is here!

Agreed! Feels like they didn't miss a step from season one. I rewatched the last two episodes of season one before the premiere of season two and it really felt continuous and seamless.

I really love OB and I hope he gets more to do as the season goes on!

I’ve got my stepson staying with us for a few days, and I was just about to start on season 2 when I found out he hadn’t seen season 1 yet. So we’re taking a couple of days to binge watch season one, and we’re hoping to get to season 2 over the weekend.

Wow, episode 1 was really good!
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Not sure when we will be able to discuss freely, but the one thing I'll say is that A+ for Tom's acting. The dude is phenomenal.

Very solid start... Also, in case nobody saw it, there was a post credit scene

Shyte!  jingle.daughter and I didn't stick around.  I guess I'll have to fast-forward to it.  There haven't been too many PC scenes in the TV shows, so we shut it down rather promptly.

Did anyone notice that the town Sylvie landed in (Broxton, Oklahoma) was the location where Thor built New Asgard in the comics?

In the movies, it is.  But in the comics it was in Oklahoma.

It's out, so discuss away.  No point in waiting until nobody is interested in discussing anymore.

I gotta say, seeing how freaked out Loki was about what's coming with Kang, it really got me worried, and that's something Ant-Man didn't quite pull off. Kang felt more like a side character there, not a big scary threat.

I think it would've been awesome if they made Modok the villain in Ant-Man and just hinted at Kang towards the end, building him up as the big bad, kind of like what they did with Thanos, you know, slowly revealing how menacing he is.

But no, they gave us this goofy Modok, and Kang the Conqueror got taken down by giant ants. Seriously, come on.

For me this first episode is like this:

GOOD
The story just flowed really nicely, you know?
They had some cool sounds and visual effects that kept us hooked.
It was awesome to see those characters again, like a breath of fresh air.
Man, the story was so gripping, it had us all on the edge of our seats.

BAD
O.B was pretty funny, but he just talked a lot, which was kinda meh for me.
Some of the acting was a bit awkward at times, but nothing too crazy.

Rating: 9/10

Seems like not many want to anyways  :lol

I liked the episode a lot, but I do worry about the MCU undoing, or messing up, everything they have set up regarding time travel.

No sure we should expect anything else from the character. I just hope they utilize him more in future episodes.

Thank you!  I was wondering why people were talking about Sylvie working at McDonald's when we only saw her for like two seconds.  It might have been in a McDonald's but I didn't clock that.  And she wasn't working there; she was a customer.  Anyway, we had to go back and watch the scene, which at least explained the McDonald's references.

I though the post credit was kind of sad honestly, given what we know.

What do we know?  (No spoilers!)  That she ends up working in a McDonald's in Oklahoma?  That would be sad.


Anyway, I thought it was fun.  I like OB.  I think my favorite part was when Loki was with OB in the past, giving him "memories" of stuff that they'd need in the future (which is really our "present", I think).  It reminded me of Bill and Ted playing "the time game" with De Nomolos.

What we know about Sylvie. She was taken from Asgard as a kid, and has been hiding in apocalyptic worlds even since. She has never experienced "normal" so her looking around the McDonald's room and saying "I want to try everything" is not about the menu, but just life in general, because this is the first time she isn't running.

Ah, I get it.  Kinda sad, but also hopeful.  She gets to do a bunch of stuff for the first time.  I thought maybe something horrible happens to her in a McDonald's.
