Question:[BLACKOUT]In the comics is Loki an adopted/stolen son from the Ice Giants home world or another realm? Or is he the actual blood son of Odin and Frigga? My understanding of Thor mythology not Marvel is that he was always his blood son. Was this just done for the movie story arc? If so, do you think it was needed or should they done without it? In other words do you think this takes away from Loki's character of no truly being an Asgardian?[/BLACKOUT]
Yes, Lok is a stolen son from the Frost Giants realm in the comics as well.
Thanks. I never knew that. I guess that explains a lot. I was hoping they didn't just change this for the movie's sake.
I wish they had used the growling, echo-ey sound effect that was in the trailer for that scene.
I said before I always felt that bit was kind of creepy and alien but it felt appropriate to me since they aren't exactly human regardless of what they look like. Too bad they changed it.![]()
Trivia time; in the Norse mythology, Loki is the son of Fárbauti (Father) and Laufey (Mother). And they're not frost giants but ordinary giants.
Actually one story Has Odin KILL Laufey and THEN adopt Loki as a baby. Tho what Loki was doing on a battle field as an infant was never explained. lolYes, Lok is a stolen son from the Frost Giants realm in the comics as well.

BTW, I have now watched it 7 times. Hahah .... I'm obsessed.
The odd camera angles made it more unique
Be glad you escaped. I'm still stuck in Lexington. Winston/Greensboro isn't to bad though.
What the...you're like a little girl with Titanic. haha
Saw it last night with the GF (to her protests, she wanted to see Something Borrowed but I wasn't having that).
Absolutley loved it, it far exceeded my expectations. Had good action, drama, and laughs. Really liked everything in Asgard. Hemsworth and Hiddleson were both fantastic. Portman was wasted, but whatever. Dennings was a riot.
Best action scene was probably the frost giants battle near the beginning, but Thor vs. Loki was very cool as well. The opening battles with Odin narrating were also very cool. Had a very epic feel to it when it was in Asgard. Loved Jaimie Alexander as Sif. Wish she was Wonder Woman.
For post conversion I thought the 3D was good too.
Might be my favorite Marvel Studios movie, to be honest. I can't rank it higher than Iron Man based on one theatre viewing, but I thought it was totally sweet. Definitley hope it gets a sequel.
**** (out of 5 stars)
lol well with all the different Ragnarok cycles you can be right as well. lolThat's what I was referring to, but I used the word stolen instead of adopted, my bad.
