#Hunters episode 6 recap series

ThereвЂ™s narcissism, and then thereвЂ™s this. They did at least get to kiss for the first time, which, on the surface, was where this was always heading, but when you think about it вЂ“ they are effectively the same person вЂ“ is ever so slightly disturbing. It was understandable given the work needed to properly introduce a character like He Who Remains, but I couldnвЂ™t help feeling Loki and Sylvie were sidelined in this finale, demoted to bystanders as others around them had more fun. Tom Hiddleston and Sophia Di Martino with Jonathan Majors. вЂњSure you do,вЂќ says Miss Minutes, before disappearing to taunt Ravonna in her office. вЂњWe write our own destiny now,вЂќ he says, using the royal we. Or perhaps he really has changed and does love Sylvie. We have seen him on OdinвЂ™s throne, possess a couple of Infinity Stones and, as the President Loki variant in episode five, defeat the Avengers in New York, so maybe he turned down Miss MinutesвЂ™ offer because he knows how getting those things pans out. Once upon a time, Loki being offered victory in New York, the Infinity Gauntlet and the throne of Asgard wouldвЂ™ve been enough to make him betray anyone. вЂњIf you think IвЂ™m evil, just wait until you meet my variants.вЂќ вЂA couple of LokisвЂ™

#Hunters episode 6 recap series

In a series not short on references to The Wizard of Oz (episode five saw Classic Loki create an actual emerald version of Asgard), it was only right that one man was behind the curtain, although where Oz hid to appear powerful, Kang is drastically more dangerous than he seems. I thought Majors was magnificent: playful and skittish one moment, chilling the next, shot through with infinite knowledge and acceptance. Jonathan Majors as He Who Remains in Loki. KangвЂ™s arrival, however, made more sense вЂ“ if a scientist from the 31st century discovering multiple versions of existence, winning a multiversal war and establishing the TVA to control all of time is what you call sense. Her going all HAL 9000 here wouldnвЂ™t have been much of a stretch. If it hadnвЂ™t been him sitting behind the door, who could it have plausibly been? Many commenters suggested it would be another Loki variant, while Miss Minutes has become more sinister by the episode. WeвЂ™ll have to wait some time for that, though: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania wonвЂ™t be released until 2023, and thereвЂ™s no Avengers film currently on MarvelвЂ™s roster. I fully expect him to survive any encounter with Scott Lang and Hope Pym and go on to become the next Thanos-level villain in whatever Avengers film comes in the MCUвЂ™s fifth phase. A major character in the comics, debuting in 1963, KangвЂ™s most commonly seen fighting the Avengers. So it was a thrill to see Kang sitting behind that lift door in the Citadel Beyond Time. Having been burned before, I was beginning to think IвЂ™d once again let the internet hype train get the better of me. I, like many others, thought Mephisto was going to appear in WandaVision. It was announced some time ago that the actor, best known for appearing in Lovecraft Country, would be playing the character in the forthcoming third Ant-Man film, and while there have been some hefty hints about his existence in this series, I didnвЂ™t think weвЂ™d see him debut in the finale. KANG! Sorry, He Who Remains, as played by Jonathan Majors. Do not read on unless you have watched episodes 1-6 Time bandit Spoiler alert: this blog is for people watching Loki on Disney+.
