Welcome to the ball move pull podcast the officially unofficial podcast for Loki. I guess I don't know. We're talking about Loki season one episode four titled the next event.

0:11.0

Aaron what do you think of this episode.

0:14.0

I thought I thought it was pretty good I think that they.

0:19.6

I like how they're humanizing both Loki's.

0:23.2

And actually everyone at the TVA with the possible exception of provona and it's this also for kind of a bummer episode was also really funny I thought the verbal word play was was really good almost to the extent that like there they were competing across purposes because.

0:40.0

I think it was understand that Owen Wilson's going through an existential crisis and just a lot of like mixed feelings about Loki and the he's but he's been so funny in his quips and shit that like it kind of.

0:49.3

Steels energy, but also I'm not sure exactly how serious we're supposed to take this showed it's about entire civilizations being wiped out and just using that as like a backdrop to it's like essentially like a primo camping spot is the end of an entire civilization you know.

1:05.3

It's just so kind of like baseline black comedy that like I if they ever go for like a genuine emotional beat I wonder if it'll land.

1:15.1

Even like you know like Loki's doing some personal development, but it's all through the lens of getting kicked into crotch through a possibly turtitude yeah.

1:24.6

Yeah yeah yeah, but but in torture in almost a slapstick kind of way.

1:30.7

So but but I but I liked it like because I'm not getting to you know caught up in the I guess the drama of of Loki and I'm I'm in it for the comedy and for the plotting which is going to be interesting if if we take Michael Waldron as word and he's going to.

1:44.7

Like blend a whole bunch of like really melancholy leftover stuff at the in the season but no I I really liked it and I appreciated the twist also everybody if you have not seen the after credit scene please I beg you before you send feedback please just stop right now before you're spoiled.

2:04.7

It's like a 30 second scene just just just fast forward through the not all the credits because you know you got the black and you got the stylish credits which are the actual credits and then you have.

2:14.7

Like the 10 minutes of boring black and white just just faunch it all the different you know international versions and whatnot watch that and then you can start the episode because I could already tell that a lot of people haven't seen it based on some comments I saw on Twitter and whatnot what you think.

2:30.7

Yeah I like this episode I for a lot of the same reasons you did I think the writing the dialogue especially is very crisp very smart and playful.

2:42.6

I like that about these really all of Marvel stuff is like that with the exception of maybe Ragnarok which I hate but the thing I kept the kept coming back to me this episode is what we said about last episode which was.

2:59.6

Boy there's something else going on behind the scenes here right this can't just be this straightforward thing that we're seeing because.

3:07.5

Boy that didn't really feel like it paid off for it it was going anywhere and then like we expected the subterfuge we expected the trick and then so far no trick so I'm like sort of retroactively more disappointed in last episode.

3:23.5

I was kind of holding out hope for this one to recontextualize everything.

3:28.4

But that didn't happen and I maybe it's me the reason needs to recontextualize my feelings on Loki because.

3:36.5

If I keep holding out hope for that big twist that big thing that's going to blow my mind and this week wasn't it right I mean like it might have been for some people but I think we saw this coming.

3:47.2

Episode one or something with the TV stuff with the time keeper reveal.
