#honesttrailers #loki
This video feels like they went in Wanting to Dislike the show just because it’s Marvel
That's what I got from this video too. It's so unfortunate that the good projects like Loki S2 and Guardians 3 get dumped with all the bad stuff.
exactly
It’s all marvel rubbish
It is not good, and I don't understand why people keep saying it is. The only good part of the series was the finale, everything else was characters doing random things with no reason or consequences.
Nah is disliked cause it was bad
Glad the comments show that I’m not the only one that enjoyed Loki season 2
Same
It was good
Copium
Funny how the comments section is copium hard
Yeah... Ngl, it doesn't feel like they watched it at all and just wrote some lazy script. Wish we ended up with an extra episode or two... But this show was solid.
"A sad green throne potato" Well someone on the Honest Trailers writing team didn't understand Loki's character arc. The whole point is that Loki started out craving a throne he couldn't have, that, despite his beliefs and delusions of grandeur, he had no claim to, and ended with taking a throne he didn't want to save those he cared about. He learned what it truly means to be a god, not some mad power trip or dominion over everything but to be willing to sacrifice yourself and stand alone if it means protecting those that are important to you.
LoL essentially what I came here to say about that exact line.
I really liked the ending, it had me getting emotional when Marvel hasn't touched my heart in quite a while. I liked Loki's redemption.❤️
Beautifully said ❤ and he ended up with the biggest throne that exists.
I absolutely agree! Sad green throne potato! Yes! Total tool on the stool!
You do know Disney pays them to do this, right?
I really enjoyed this season and didn't find the plot confusing. It actually gave me hope that the MCU can get good again.
And let's be honest, Doctor Who is much more Wibbley Wobbley Timey Wimey than this show. When you have one character at the end of their life meeting someone at the beginning of theirs and they have a relationship? River Song and The Doctor starting with Tennent and ending with Capaldi. I really enjoyed the groundhog day aspect of Loki too. It's always entertaining like in Edge of Tomorrow. Then to realize the futility of the repetition/effort; to knowing what must be done.
First time I've really found one of these just not that funny. Usually they have a few digs, but the jokes work because they understand the thing they're poking fun at. Didn't feel like it in this case. No it's not confusing, we've seen groundhog day and all the versions of it, we've watched Dr Who. It's not the complex. But then I did spend centuries studying temporal physics.
This show was actually good and I had fun watching it.
@@Gm7.photographyyeah i didnt find this one funny either. I was straight faced whole time i watched it
Oh me too.
This honest trailer definitely reeked of "everyone hates the MCU now so let's just pile on to get them sweet internet points"
agreed, like you see all the negative stuff online, so you're just going to repeat that so people like the video
I mean, I really liked the first season, and thought this season was crap but for the last episode or two.
100%
But lots of internet talking heads have been claiming that Loki season 2 was good, so if they wanted trendy internet points they would've tried to say positive things about it.
Welcome to the internet.
Loki is literally holding the whole MCU timeline together, its poetry
Which is kinda like an in-universe explanation of why almost everything past endgame sucks
No
@@ninjanibba4259 Yes
That explains why it's all crashing down. Loki the trickster doing exactly what he's always done.
@@chiarruzini1191 no DC's Flash wishes they had a good character arc like Spiderman and Loki
They did not talk about the visual aspect of loki season 2 which is amazing, the framing, color and whole vibe of the series is great.. i didn’t expect this much hate from the honest trailer team tbh
Yes! I don't think the visuals of this show has been talked about a lot. The colors, the contrast between cool and warm tones, the composition, the sets if you can see how good and how consistent everything was all throughout the series, you will never be able to unsee it
> i didn’t expect this much hate from the honest trailer team tbh Same. Really weird how much they're digging into it. The visuals also improved it in another aspect - all those steadicam wide-angle long-take shots really gave the actors time to emote and sit in the role, instead of cutting away every few seconds. The heavy film grain they added really gave it an interesting feel too.
bro its sarcasm not hate @@johnnypopstar
@@Abhishek-bb7bj then it's really well disguised "sarcasm" that's got everyone here fooled
@@Abhishek-bb7bj Yeah no, go watch their honest trailer comment video. Not sarcasm at all. Fix your brain.
I really liked Loki 2, it felt like a separate show from the entire MCU which is a good thing now.
How is that good
The finale is, in my opinion, one of the most glorious episodes of all the MCU shows.
That's an extremel low bar to surpass
It's the best by far. Doesn't mean much
@@mikelytou well damn, that is quite the good point, in full retrospective
@@uriargaman7241 ouch. Yet valid
That's like saying it's the slimiest turd, it's still sh*t.
I don't get the hate here. I don't think this season was perfect, but it was sooo much better than anything else Marcel put out this year.
Thank you. Signed: Marcel
Just cause it’s better than the other stuff doesn’t make it good. It was visually amazing but that’s about it
*cough cough* Guardians 3
Im just tired of people who can't seem to remember that even when Disney wasn't pumping out constant content we still had Iron Man 3, the first two Thors and the Hulk. Loki was good some MCU stuff (ironically also Hulk) is bad and that won't change no matter how much or how little content they put out.
I still think Hulk gets a bad wrap. @@shaftshaft
This is one of the few honest trailers I’ll walk away from confused. This season was glorious and the perfect ending for Loki.
The callback to Thor with him saying what kind of god he wanted to be. Thereby creating Yggdrasil, the world tree. He became what he always wanted, just not in the way he ever expected. I would be completely satisfied without a third season. You're right, it is the perfect ending for Loki.
Really not, it was an endless series of ultimately pointless mcguffins and questionable character choices
Owen Wilson didn't said WOW. It is not perfect.
How does he physically hold "timelines" in his hands? Is he giant now? What even IS a "timeline" in this show?
@@skepticalbadgerI mean... he actually is a giant. Spoiler alert for the original Thor film...
I liked this season, funnily enough I found this season the opposite of what this video is saying. It wasn't boring, it wasn't confusing, it literally told you the plot in episode 1 and just worked towards ending it. So the rest was just getting to know the characters and doing the mission required.
Yeah, I wouldn't worry about HT going down on it, they've had a thing about MCU stuff for a while now - most of the 'jokes' are just bad criticism that is clearly written by someone who hasn't actually watched the trailer subject...
so howd he control time slipping?
I think the issue that honest trailers is working with here is that the science doesn't make sense, and that there are obvious plot holes. It's not a confusing show to watch, but trying to logically make sense of a few things is confusing because logically, it doesn't make sense, so you have to ignore it. I was surprised by how little positivity went into HT about this show because even if the science was convoluted, it was a really good show with great acting, amazing dialogue, and some great themes
@@mckookie2967 The same way any character in any show or movie with magic in it does: at some point they just "can".
yeah, over the past year or so i feel like this has become less about "honest" trailers and more about "cynical" trailers. It's just nitpicking everything like cinema sins now.
I think screen junkies didn’t realize that the majority of people actually loved this season
haha frl
are the people who liked this sh!tshow in the room with us?
Because honest trailers actually knows quality
Yeah, not sure the direction they were going with the jokes. Loki was the best show since ... uh, Loki.
@@Dudecox They just truthfully represented the show.
Not sure what got you guys feeling this way but this season was actually phenomenal. Shame you didn’t like it
Agree. I LOVED it. My husband rarely ever watches TV, but we watched both seasons of Loki together. We watched the last 5 episodes in a row and I cried so much at the end.
Same. it was a great season. I feel like a lot of the negativity in this video is just copy and paste from other haters online.
Same. It was quite the awesome rollercoaster
Lon has this agenda towards hating every project of marvel studios. Honest trailer is suddenly becoming what they think and not about being honest
Dan murrel leaving the screen junkies has slowly turned honest trailer being unfunny
Did...did yall watch the same show the rest of us did?? Loki was fabulous. The music, the colors, the cliffhangers, all fantastic.
I assume you didn't include "story," "character development," and "any reason at all that we should care what happens to any of the characters and/or timelines," for the correct reason that those things weren't in the show?
@@douglasr.beyers5747 ikr, the plot's a complete mess
Nah, it was dogshit.
“…let time pass…” Möbius’ development was crazy, shame you thought only about the snacks.
The show was actually one of the few things Disney has done good lately
No it’s not
Your bar must be -earth's core
TBH it's the only Disney MCU show worth watching.
@@ninjanibba4259 Lol! Trying too hard mate...?
@@artichokie791 trying what to hard? Mate?
I did not expect so much hate for some much needed richness in MCU character arcs, and this is a great, poignant wrap to Loki’s. In spite of its flaws, I loved Season 2.
Screen Junkies are all in on hating Marvel at this point
I dunno about Loki nailing the character arcs. I mean for the most part they did get Loki’s and to a slightly lesser extent Mobius’ but I don’t think most of the other characters did.
@@bloodiedfox Absoutely.
Agree.
@@skylerorton2058they didnt say being comic accurate. They said it had rich character arcs.
This was actually a great well received universally liked season. This is a weird honest trailers
Not even close to universally liked. It was at a level that all their shows should consider the bare minimum. This is the richest studio on Earth and for comparison to a legitimately great show, look at Andor (Disney owns Star Wars too)
"LIKED BY ALL!!" - Some random KZhead commenter.
Yes, having an opinion is a weird Honest trailer
@@CamJamesit was still liked by most people.
No it wasn't. The people *talking* about it liked it. That doesn't mean that "most people" liked it. Some found it dull, plodding, repetitive, and a major step down from the first season.
it was great - proof that when you tell writers to write a friggin FINALE instead of always leaving a door (or 200 doors) open at the end, they're capable of doing it right.
Of all the Marvel shows that have come out, this is the one Honest Trailers has the biggest gripe with??
At this point they basically see Marvel and try to come up with what's the worst things they can say about it. How did we go from honest and funny to basically cinemasins
Who says they have the "biggest gripe" with it? The trailer is about this series but that doesn't mean they dislike it more than other marvel shows/films
@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 They did sound quite down about it...
Honest Trailers morphed into Cinema Sins so gradually I almost didn’t notice.
Yuuuuup. It's just distilling it down to nitpicks and "I didnt like it" "so hard to follow" crap. It's not fun anymore. It's just cynical.
Loki S2 was one of the better things to come out of Marvel in recent times and finale gave a much satisfactory ending to one of the most interesting characters in MCU.
That doesn't make it good
@@rohanking12able agree to disagree
I loved this season! This Honest Trailer feels like a rare miss.
yeah , i mean first episodes were kinda slow and there was some pointless fillers here and there but the season finale was the best thing since endgame .
Disagree, this show feels like what Andor did to Star Wars. I had a hard time caring about anything happening. The best MCU properties and Star Wars BALANCE the fun and slow burn. Pure fun and pure slow burn SUCK.
Loki S2 was a breath of fresh air in the recent marvel phase. I feel y’all definitely underrated this one.
Is that a statement that our standards have dropped since Endgame? 🤔
Personally, I quit watching after Ep 2. The show never attempted to hook me, oozing entitlement, like it deserved my love and attention just because it was MCU. Then I switched over to One Piece, and if Loki is “a breath of fresh air” OP is pure oxygen at the top of an endless canopy of trees.
@@DarkHarlequin i guess their expectation dropped so low after Secret Invasion, that they keep praising this show lol
That doesn't even make sense. Like what? What do you mean by it "deserved love". It's a show. It either hooks you or it doesn't. @@michaelcaboose8685
@@michaelcaboose8685 Loki is different from other shows, it doesn't try to hook you.
The best thing about this video is everyone in the comment section defending the show. I LOVE YOU GUYS!
Yeah, HT seems to have stopped being "honest" and just gone "mean" a while ago. :-/
First thing I did when I saw how negative they were being was to check the comments and was so relieved
@@jamielondon6436😢
I know, the show and soundtrack was incredible!
It feels like the HT writers did exactly what they blamed Loki of doing - Got lazy and copied the Marvel hate from everywhere. Just completely missed the boat when it came to following what actually took place in this season.
This felt like a Cinema Sins video.
The lack of recognition how entertaining this was, and how wonderful it was to have Ke Huy Quan back... I mean, come on! Every time he said "Temporal Loom", I flashed back to Temple of Doom. Such a great character, such a fun actor.
He was literally the only cast member having a good time. Him and maybe Eugene (Casey) and Jonathan (Kang). Everyone else looked utterly miserable and gutted for the most part.
Tom Hiddleston should get a second place medal for the most running after Tom Cruise
all the Toms gotta run!
Huddleston needs to get first place so that Cruise will run himself to death to prove that he is not too old.
Have you SEEN DOCTOR WHO? The show everyone and their mother said this takes inspiration from? 😂
200th like
Reply 5, Tom a tom tom tom! Nom
Did they not watch the show and see Mobius trying to reconcile his TVA job with the realization that there is a completely different life for him on the Sacred Timeline? Definitely not just “one personality trait “, he was quite a fascinating character
ikr? Mobius had a really emotional arc this season, finding out he's a widower with two kids hit hard for me. I loved Owen Wilson in all of Loki - can't wait to see him in Deadpool 3!
So he had two new traits instead of one. Very fascinating.
@@nathanieldiaz5254it's an already established character. It's not like they could change him completely
@@chiarruzini1191he’s never been established, dude was an enemy to Loki then he wasn’t That’s not a character
@@chiarruzini1191 Wow.
Normally these are great, but this one feels like the HT team went into it determined to not like it because of MCU fatigue. I'm glad to see the comments agreeing that you guys severely underrated this series.
The comments literally don't agree. Along with them bringing loki back from death a 4th time
People used to say, Loki is carrying the MCU. Now he is doing it in a literal sense...
I got to disagree with this one for first time but that Clock Block line was Chefs kiss.
What about Tik Tock Influencer? I laughed at that.
I agree. HT is piling on Marvel hate train with no nuance. Is almost everything they've produced these two three years, yes, but were there good gems here and there, also yes. Loki Szn 2 outdid my cynical movie analysing self, especially one that dislike the direction marvel is going.
Same here. @@JustThatOneRandomGuy
Please don't let whichever ScreenJunkies employee who doesn't know the difference between plot and story write an Honest Trailer ever again.
I wish i could elevate this comment cause this is the one.
Their playful ribbing has turned into edgelord sanctimony. It's unbecoming.
YES!!!!! I am so relieved the majority of comments call out how blatantly skewed this Honest Trailer and its so-called commentary was
Loki 2 definitely one of the few good things of this MCU phase
The only marvel content I actually looked forward to.
The ending was an amazing goodbye for a character that we've known for ages and i could write an essay on how good it was
That aint the end. They're 100% pulling him back out for Secret Wars.
@@robbybevard8034 i know but i wish they don't or only bring him back in very very dire situations
Awesome could you please send me a copy to explain what happened and why it mattered? (Also why so many characters played against type and just motivations in general for the cast, cheers!)
@@theamazingbatboy I had to look up what happened myself.
@@theamazingbatboy Idk if OP is doing this but I actually wrote about the end when it came out! On The Mary Sue. (And I did talk about some of the things you mentioned.)
I‘m a little bit surprised and disappointed you did not mention how Loki throws his head back to flip his hair in every other scene… and it looks gooooooood ❤❤❤
Ikr😂 once you see it you can't unsee it. It's so distracting
it took me to season 1 (when he got pruned) to realize he thwips his hair all the time, cant unsee it now especially in season2, its kind of his shtick and i like it
The last time we'll see the Famous Hiddleston Hairflip will be just before Loki steps out onto the ramp and become the God of Stories
I thought I was the only one that annoys! Look down...pause....flip hair! Ughhhh, NOT AGAIN! Bro, this is not the movie Flashdance! Lol!
I'm here for it.
This season gave Loki a perfectly tragic/heroic ending. He finally gets to be a true hero by making a sacrifice FAR greater than anything Thor has ever done in the MCU, and no one except for Sylvie and the TVA characters are likely to ever know about it, especially if Marvel does end up chickening out of their Kang Dynasty/Secret Wars plans like some rumors have been saying they might.
That's extremely shitty. Why even have these heroes to just say well its always been loki
Loki was honestly the BEST show on Disney+ that I also enjoyed. Absolutely a great ending, music, and a Tom Hiddleston who has earned at least a few nominations for next year's award season. So does Ke Huy Quan for his amazing deadpan deliveries.
I could be wrong but I feel like the writers of this episode not only jumped on the hate marvel train but also didn't actually watch Loki just skimmed it or read some negative articles on it. It is so much better than this video makes it out to be
True. Season 2 is a masterpiece
This one feels like a personal grudge. The season was fantastically well made and acted. So much vitriol and sass. WTF is this, CinemaSins?
Yea..usually I love Honest Trailers but this one is bad. Seems like they were just going on the MCU is bad thought..because that is what everyone is saying.
Dude, I was about to write this comment! Nice!
agreed
@@athos2001Just because you disagree with their criticism, doesn't make it bad criticism.
It doesn't even feel like the same people. Just a hate Marvel bandwagon vid. Which they probably would've been fine doing that with any other later title... But this just feels lazy and pointed for no reason.
Wow, you guys did not give this season enough credit.
"Did someone forget to take their vitamins?" killed me!
Yeah. He *did* look sickly in this season.
Loki S2 is one of the best things to happen to Marvel since Endgame.
Natalie Holt was the definite MVP of this season, my god what music she wrote!
My wife and kids asked "You want to watch the credits?" No. I want to listen.
this
100% agree. The final scene with the new braams arrangement of the established Loki outro theme was absolutely epic and sent shivers down my spine. Loved the outro theme in season 1 already.
Her composition is goated.
Have to agree the newly revised score is incredibly crafted and hits hard emotionally.
I liked they gave Loki real closure weaving Yggdrasil, for all time.
Always.
@@koczy666 😢
And they never explained how he did it.
@@VinceValentine Why do you need to have everything explained. Can't things just be? And he probably did it.... because he's a Norse god, isn't he?
@@justfellicitya No, things can't "just be". He didn't have this power in the movies or in season 1 or even in the previous episodes of season 2. You can't just pull stuff out of your nose, that's terrible storytelling.
I really enjoyed Season 2. it felt like the best thing the MCU has done in a while. the ending was fantastic.
The viewership numbers beg to differ.
Loki is the best Marvel show so far, change my mind...
Loki 2 was one of the few new Marvel shows that was actually good. Rare miss by Honest Trailers. There’s honest criticism, then there’s cashing in on Disney hate.
Agreed, they got it wrong this time, which is rare.
I thought the same thing but it didn't occur to me that they were specifically jumping on the 'I hate everything after Edngame' theme that runs so strong in the fanbase these days. Well said
Too critical of a very very entertaining and refreshing mcu show . Also, the sound design was god tier.💪
Critical? I'd say they're verging on being Disney shills, almost. This show was awful, both seasons. A show co-starring Loki with none of the characters from the comics or stories from the comics.
@@antona.8659you know the tva existed in the comics right? Also is it that bad that they wanted to tell an original story?
@@antona.8659wait. You're mad the show is an original idea and not pandering?
@@antona.8659 It's not edgy to hate Marvel any more, chum. It's depressingly basic.
@@johnnypopstar I don't hate Marvel. Matter of fact, I love Marvel. By Marvel I mean Marvel Comics. Hence why I'm so pissed that my favorite Marvel character and his supporting cast, Thor and Loki, have been reduced to walking jokes and silly anti-heroes.
Loki season 2 raised the bar in every aspect of making television - truly masterful!
Loki is the best thing Marvel has made post-Endgame. A show that understands it's character and doesn't just resort to a big battle in the finale but actual heartfelt moments.
I normally love these but I couldn't disagree more this time. Loki S2 was amazing. :)
Nah they rigth it was a complete mess
@@kevindelgado1459 I think you're talking about Secret Invasion
Nope, they were absolutely right about it; it's an incoherent mess
Amazingly messy indeed.
It was super confusing (I still don't know what the loom does!) but it was funny and the characters had good chemistry! I've never heard of the OB guy but I have to see what else he's in because he was hilarious!
I loved the metaphors that he did about Loki "projecting what's going on in the MCU..." but I also really liked this season, and especially that ending episode.
yea it's the best MCU project I have watched in a pretty long time
I didn't really care for the first four episodes of this season, but I felt like the last two episodes more than made up for it. Thought it was good stuff and a good arc for Loki.
Yeah this whole season is about the MCU. The TVA is the MCU when you watch it with that in mind the show is a bit weird
one of the first honest trailers i outright thought was bad because of how wrong it was. I mean, sometimes I get you gotta stretch to make the joke, and its always been fine, but this take on Loki 2 is like its written by an AI that has read a bunch of news articles about how the mcu is strugglgin and everyone has marvel fatigue.
Someone able to create introspections and transpositions right here. Glad to see that people are not that empty after all.
I think this is the first time that I have strongly diverged from Honest Trailers thoughts on a show/movie. Aside from this I have always found the commentary accurate and hilarious. I was surprised that they disliked this so much. I loved Loki Season 2. It also speaks to the strength of Honest Trailers that this is the first time I remember disagreeing with their opinions. Kudos! lol
It's crazy that Loki is holding MCU together...metaphorically and literally
Movie-wise, we’re not getting anything until Deadpool 3. This is still fazing out from the former head of Disney’s mandates for more projects & faster. Marvel has been course correcting, but we won’t see the results of that for a while
loki series: nominated for best drama series at critics' choice awards honest trailers: this is a waste of time TV 😂
Right? So much hate for a good show...
Also three separate acting awards.
@@ed_mekeel3 i get having criticism, nothing is above it and noting is perfect. but this felt like a speech of a hater who maybe had genuine points but they were drowned by them looking for reasons to hate on *everything.*
This was a waste of TV time for me personally. Trying to carefully follow the story for 5 -seasons- episodes and then, screw the almighty loom, here's a tree instead.
@@John_C_J What? Two seasons. Lol
I mostly liked this season. It spent a bit too much time spinning its wheels, but it had some interesting ideas, most of the cast is still great, and it ended better than most MCU D+ seasons. I thought the part of the Honest Trailer about how this season is an extended metaphor for MCU phases 4 and 5 was great though, and the starring section was excellent.
That’s all the MCU is now, ideas with bad execution
I also enjoy cOnSoOmiNg the products
@@NPClownumber81googolplex That's great. I'm happy for you!

I never really like Loki season 1 and thought it was the worst of the MCU at the time but season 2 was fantastic to me and it helped redeem my feelings for the entirety of it
"In another life, I would have really liked doing tech support with you" - Loved this :D Season 2 was fantastic, messy exposition and all
IDK Honest Movie Trailers, I was actually kind of living for Loki giving that God-Emperor Of Mankind energy at the end, there. 🤷♀️
Season 2 was great and its ending was a masterpiece. You all missed the mark here.
No one watched it
I missed the whole second season, the first was crap.
Season 2, like season 1, was awful. The ending was awful. Loki is a character assassinated, flanderized caricature of what he once was.
@@emmanuelcrejbongah6925well that just simply isn't true because I know I watched it and there are a lot of people in here who are saying it's good. How can they say it's good and that they enjoyed it or even be critical of it if they didn't watch it? What you're saying doesn't seem to make any sense. No one watched it?

@@antona.8659You are literally insane lol
This honest trailer is really harsh for a show that is significantly better than the other Marvel Disney + shows. Season one and two are so good and great character development for this variant of Loki. You can tell hard hard work was put into the making of both seasons to make them be so cohesive. Disappointed with this honest trailer.
Honest Trailers are always harsh--that's their whole thing!
@@jg-2900 Not necessarily, that's CinemaSins. Honest Trailer was also honest if they liked something.
Loki season 2 is a work of art. The finale was incredible too!
"Oooh! Clock-blocked!" Okay you genuinely made me laugh with that.
Yeah nah, this season was awesome! Making Loki the God of Stories like in the comics is just perfection!
You really underrated Loki S2. I thought the ending was beautiful, epic, mythic even. Hiddleston was amazing. The visual effects were better than we've seen from Marvel in a while. The music was gorgeous. KHQ was adorable throughout. You guys come off like too-cool (in your own opinion) gatekeepers on this one.
"MYTHIC"? In what part of the myths did Loki go on silly adventures with bunch of characters that never existed in the comics, let alone in Norse Myths? What about his wife Sigyn? Why does some guyed named Mobius is his soulmate instead of his actual wife from mythology? The show was awful.
@@antona.8659wtf do you mean “soulmate”. And seriously what is the problem with telling an original story
He wasn’t ‘amazing’ apart from a few scenes and I’m a huge fan of him!
@@antona.8659This show has nothing ‘Norse’ in it apart from Yggdrasil at the *VERY* end! 🙄
I wasn't a Loki fan before this series - he was cool, but he wasn't my favorite character - but this series absolutely changed my mind. It's incredible to see where he came from to where he ended up, what he was willing to sacrifice and go through to protect the people and things he cared about. Even if you didn't know what was happening story wise, this is one of the most GORGEOUS MCU shows they've ever had - I was left stunned after every episode in season 2 and idk who the VFX artists were but I hope they get kudos (bc we know they're not getting a raise - thanks Marvel.) Loki the show was truly one of the best parts of phases 4 and 5 and an absolute perfect ending to one of the characters who's been here since the beginning. (Though I would not be surprised if marvel tried to bring him back somehow...)
But we have to *KNOW* what’s happening in the story. It’s the most *IMPORTANT* parts of a show! 😤 The writers left so many holes.
I loved Loki before the show so I hated the show. There.
Fans: Hey Screen Junkies, Loki s2 was awesome, maybe you should be positive in this video Screen Junkies: EVERYTHING IS GARBAGE!!
I liked Loki Season 2. A lot.
gotta be honest not sure why you seemed to dislike this so much this is best thing the MCU has done since endgame
"best thing the MCU has done since endgame" isn't a high bar. thus you can be "sure why you seemed to dislike" also you forgot spiderman. so the premise itself is false.

This season was one of the best pieces of content Marvel has ever put out

How was he a side character in S1? The whole thing was about him becoming a more emotionally strong person and showing it at the end, which continued in S2.
Only the first & last two episodes mattered in my opinion writers were just filling time with many side quests that lead nowhere but finale was worth it ( you guys were really honest here lol)
I disagree, without the middle episodes the last two episodes would felt rushed. Loki's sacrifice would only made sense after trying every way they could though of. those were necessary for character development.
@@user-pn6qq1zr3x did the McDonald’s inclusion help add depth to Loki’s sacrifice?
@@twistmygrinder4777 Sylvie wanting to experience a normal life does. Mobius wanting to enjoy a normal earthly meal does. obviously, the conversations should take place somewhere. McDonald's was just somewhere for the scenes to happen. Besides, those episodes had far more than just McDonald's. They tried to go other routes to save those timelines and in the end, Loki found out that there was no way they could keep the device and save all the timelines at the same time.
@@user-pn6qq1zr3x they could've done that in one another episode, but three felt like too much stretch just for Lil character motivation, although he was already very motivated to save timelines in firstw two episodes, it felt like writers added extra drama just to make standard mcu six episodes
A lot of people raved about the ending but I just can’t help but feel it was pretty all over the place until that end two episodes really, like if 2/3rds of your series is mediocre at best but with 2 amazing episodes which are at the end too it’s quite hard to recommend.
Loki season 2 finale is a literally top tier masterpiece
Same! I don’t think it was just “really good!” I think it was exceptional!!!!!
I haven't disagreed with a Honest Trailer this much since the time they've said "Be a man" from Mulan was a filler song
Right?? Season 2 is literally one of the best things MCU released period.
Meet MCU s next big villian... . . . *😂 HE who won't go away..*
“Laughed out of a Dr. Who writer’s room.” Yup.
It finally happened. Screen Junkies got so disconnected from the audience that they completely misread the room
Heaven forbid they have their own thoughts instead of telling people what they want to hear.
The Room is a movie, not a book. Get your facts right next time
The comments section is not the hero we deserve but the hero we did not know we needed
Loved the line about Owen Wilson. "Woww. Im cheerful with a hint of sadness behind the eyes. Woww"😂😂😂
Loki S02 is an actual masterpiece in general, you cannot change my mind CinemaSins.
Never thought I would heavily disagree with a Honest Trailer in my life. Yeah Marvel hasn’t been at it’s best in last few years and I’ve hated a good handful of projects myself, but this show was truly amazing! The marvel hate trend is getting so stale and boring it’s eye rolling at this point.
Ditto.
This show was NOT "amazing". It kept you BARELY interested because you want to see where they r taking it, but the majority of the season was underwhelming to say the least. There was no antagonist so it sacrificed MAJOR character development to fabricate conflict. Amateur writing compared to the first season
@@kyleferguson4236 It may have kept YOU barely interested, but I was hooked and eagerly anticipating each episode the whole season! And the payoff was stellar!
@@tamlynhart but y tho? What kept u "eagerly anticipating each episode"? Did u actually believe they wouldnt fix the stupid door by the end of it? I'll admit the finale was pretty decent, but the payoff was NOT worth all the garbage filler with character motivations going every which way and no running theme other than "generic scifi emergency that nobody knows how to fix"
Nailed it
I think Honest Trailers missed the mark here. Loki Season 2 was great!
They have been a lot more cynical of late it feels
@@xger21 Yeah. Even guardians 3 they could not bring themselves to praise.
Viewership was terrible though the season 1 premiere had 13.5 million US viewers in it's first week while season 2's premier had 10.9 million GLOBAL viewers in it's first week.
I also thought it was great and a nice send of for Tom s Loki
@@Ushio01viewership doesn't equate to quality. Andor is probably the least watched star wars show too
This season was rough in places, and the worst part by far was the insane overacting from the He Who Remains variant. But despite that I think this was a beautiful and somber way to finish Loki's character arc! I feel like his finale couldn't have been more perfect for everything he went through and became. Loki was always complex, surprising, and at times very heartwarming. Not to mention that I feel like he was one of the only villains to have a different power set than the heroes. Like how hard is it to write a villain who isn't just the bad version of the hero? Sorry, that was a random soapbox. The point is that I disagree with Honest Trailer's idea that this was just a boring or lazy ending.
Even though this was a last minute change, this season is so much better than the first season.
Wow, didn't honest trailers used to say when something was genuinely great. Kinda sad that they are just turning into so many other critics and saying its bad because its the mcu
No, have you not watched the video? They specifically tell you every fault of the series
@@rantallion-hr5xp a lot of which are not valid and just the same "oh but the mcu is bad now. Anyway even after pointing out flaws they usually say that something good is good.
@@rantallion-hr5xp did u watch the season though? if u did, u would know that most of these criticisms are not valid. usually what makes these reviews funny and the jokes land is that even if they exaggerate, there is some truth to them but here the writer is basically clip chimping, using out of context clips to make a false point. u know ur review, be it comedic or not, is bad when u have to resort to right-wing style propaganda tactics to make ur points xD
I’ve been cooling on Pitch Meeting for a while because Ryan started doing that. Now, Honest Trailers does it too. It’s saddening.
Imagine thinking Season 2 of Loki was bad, when it's literally one of the best things they've done in the MCU so far..
The first 6 episodes are them trying to save the TVA without ever giving us a reason (for those episodes) beyond "or something bad will happen". That was incredibly badly done at the very least, but I did enjoy it overall too.
I loved it, especially the finale, but it seems these guys didn't. Each to its own!
Misplaced frustration with other Marvel properties has made you hop on the train to hate Loki just because it has Marvel in it's name
Yeah, hate to say it but seem like SJ read the wrong room here...
Nope. It was just sloppy writing this season. The show disappointed in every way. Wasted such a great character in Loki.
@@theMLBfan*EXACTLY!*
Cmon this was a masterpiece when I was watching it every week, don’t do them dirty like that
It would have been a thousand times better if Mobius was actually just a variant of actual Owen Wilson.
Loki season 2 might not make a whole lot of sense plot wise, but it is immensely narratively satisfying. I especially loved watching Loki and Mobius interact, their relationship is beautiful. Loki season 2 is the first time Marvel has actually made me cry. That last scene with Mobius watching his life on the sacred timeline, feeling lost and without purpose, and Loki all alone on his throne, with the burden of the entire multiverse on his shoulders...may just be the most heartbreakingly beautiful thing ever
I hate this show overall but some of the emotional aspects were indeed touching.
I loved S2 of Loki. Full disclosure I binge watched it on psychedelics. 😝
If Loki wasn't the best Disney+ Marvel show before, it officially is now. Fingers crossed he and Thor reunite in whatever Secret Wars does with itself.
Hopefully without Taika
They probably won’t. I still am hoping Thor 5 comes out though, just without Taika
@@scoot702fulhopefully without taika.
What? Are you dense?
Definitely not. Andor by far. First season of the mandalorian second
Anyone else want them to remake this "Honest" trailer? 🙋🏻♀️
"Clock blocked" Hahahaha damn, had to pause the video.
I can say that SJ must not watch a lot of doctor who because this was an amazing homage to it
How
They actually watched *all* of Doctor Who
Homage to Doctor Who? maybe not. But this being more complicated or more ridiculous than Doctor Who? Never. The Doctor had Amelia Pond bring him back from nonexistence by having her think of him with the phrase "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue." This was after the universe was destroyed and restarted. Loki season 2 is only slightly wibbley wobbley timey wimey.
