Welcome back everyone this is going to be my brand new loki trailer video big surprise they
dropped a new loki trailer in addition to all the big marvel phase 4 movie trailers yesterday
there's a whole bunch of new easter eggs we'll break it all down if you're brand new to the
channel of course i'll be doing all the episode videos for this so be sure to subscribe to get
all those videos we'll also do that disney plus giveaway for memberships all you have to do to
enter is just be a subscriber and leave all your predictions for the loki series in the comments
i love the way loki rolls into this trailer though like owen wilson says everywhere you
go destruction the death of worlds and loki just shrugs like yeah exactly so even though all this
new trailer footage is all about tom hiddleston's new version of loki it's mostly through gugu
mbatha-raw's character ravonna renslayer she's actually a really big deal in the marvel lore
with some huge connections to king the conqueror that i'll talk about in a second because obviously
we're going to get a version of him during ant-man 3 quantum mania in a lot of this being framed
through owen wilson's character talking to her about loki playing the mobius character obviously
his character's name a big reference to time because of the way that they're playing on all
the conventions of time travel during the series they're taking a very doctor who and hitchhiker's
guide to the galaxy's sense of humor to the series with the way they play on a lot of these time
travel tropes so if you really like the craziness of wandavision and you felt like falcon and winter
soldier was a little too regular like a little to stock in trade i feel like loki is really going
to crank up the dials on the craziness and it sounds like they had a much clearer idea of what
they wanted the series to be when they plotted this out and that's one of the reasons why it's
getting a season 2. if you didn't see the good news either they've already renewed it for season
2 tom hiddleston will be coming back so it'll be one of those marvel disney plus series that does
get multiple seasons it's just in between season 1 and season 2 he'll cross over to thor 4 love
and thunder but the whole thing here is that you have judge ren slayer presiding over loki's trial
after they drag him in for destroying the timeline when he stole the tesseract the space stone from
the main mcu timeline in avengers end game then they show you the series of the ever increasing
branching timelines from the main timeline that just goes on forever into the future i'll explain
the time variance authority and the time keepers in a second but where they are here this whole
city that you see which looks amazing but the time keepers themselves the statues that you see here
these big statues are beings that exist at the end of the timeline like the very end of time
at the end of the universe like literally the end of everything their technology their science is
so advanced that they create the time variance authority to sort of police the timeline and
make sure to keep its integrity so you don't have characters like king the conqueror running around
messing with things to their own will that's exactly what the loki character just did like he
messed with the timeline created all these branch timelines so now the time variance authority
kind of like the time cops step in to clean up these alternate timelines and close them down
in ren slayer here just at least initially doesn't think that this version of loki is anything
special and will just cause them more trouble than he's worth while mobius owen wilson's characters
trying to advocate for him like he might surprise us he might change which is a clever reference
to the redeemed loki from avengers infinity war who sacrificed himself before thanos killed him
the cool thing that you may not have realized in this is because they sort of exist this pocket
dimension where they are is at the end of time they witnessed the original timeline
where he redeemed himself thanos assembled the infinity gauntlet snapped everyone
then the events of avengers end game the blip happened they've already been able to witness
everything that's ever going to happen in this timeline which is how they know when it's changed
in a bad way that they need to step in and fix like how would you be able to fix something if you
didn't know what it was supposed to be originally but owen wilson's character mobius knows that this
version of loki had he not stolen the tesseract would have eventually become the redeemed version
of loki just given a couple more years so just to explain the stakes of the series when they pick up
like the thing that's hanging over loki said they released this new plot synopsis and a log line
for the series which basically says this new loki has to help close down all the alternate branching
timelines in realities with the other versions of loki that he inadvertently created through
his actions or he faces deletion from the timeline like if he doesn't play along with them the time
variance authority will make it like he never existed they'll just go back in time to the exact
point where he was about to take the tesseract and kill him preventing him from creating all
these branching timelines in the first place which might seem hardcore but it would be the simplest
solution to the problem just go back and make it so that he never did any of this stuff and
it does sound like they've done things like that before but mobius is giving loki a chance to fix
things himself also the twist here the reason why they want this loki is because there's all these
other alternate loki's that he has to go after in the branch timelines who are even worse than he is
and i think he's trying to rehabilitate him into one of their star time cops so to speak like i
said they've already confirmed loki season two and i think the idea is that through multiple
seasons of the show as loki crosses over between the future marvel movies eventually he will redeem
himself like the original loki redeemed himself in avengers infinity war and become a truly good
character with a lot of mischief and classic loki jokes along the way but while they're
having that conversation they intercut it with the separate scenes of loki trying to pull a
fast one on rensslayer the other time variance authority troops trying to escape their facility
and failing miserably added that's the whole joke of the series because all these people are from
the end of time they're so advanced they have so much technology that there's no way that he's able
to pull a fast one on them but i have a feeling they're gonna have a lot of fun with that during
episode one where you initially see him here right after they capture him and he just spends
a lot of that first episode in the early moments trying to escape and failing miserably at it it
looks amazing if you've ever read any of the king war storyline or any classic king the conqueror
stories that featured him in his original time period during the far future it looks a lot like
this i'll talk more about kang the conqueror and his connection to the timekeepers in a second but
then you see other footage of loki using his magic to dry himself off it's not just illusions that he
creates like that like when he changes his form he uses magic just like scarlet witch or doctor
strange would use magic but then you see a much longer version of what seems like the pompeii
scene with him just grandstanding while the people are panicking running around going crazy
while the volcano seems like it's erupting in the background then it sort of turns into this funny
twist on the iron man jericho scene from way back in marvel phase one much to owen wilson's chagrin
like he can't believe what's going on here this might just be from early on when he's giving loki
the tutorial and what it is that they do at the time variance authority just taking him around
to different places in time explaining how they try to maintain the integrity of the timeline by
gardening and plucking out bad actors eliminating bad branch timelines i think the idea is that in
the loki series because he used an infinity stone it created way more branch timelines like in a
way worse way than you would normally see with someone messing with the timeline like when he's
in this processing queue here you see another person anybody who's being processed by them is
somebody who has tried to mess with the timeline i love the idea too in this waiting room you see a
scroll standing nearby you just have to imagine this is the marvel universe so you'd have many
different characters from other series crossing over into this many different types of aliens
then i love this other scene with the reference to the first avengers movie in that scene where he's
just used the tesseract to escape the avengers tower and avengers end game and he winds up
landing in what seems like the gobi desert on the opposite side of the planet he wakes up to the
faces of those people who are just confused about what's going on and gives them the exact same
speech that he gave at the beginning of the first avengers movie when he stepped through the portal
i am loki and i am burdened with glorious purpose the funny thing about that you get to remember
when this is happening in the timeline he just did that because this is right after the end
of the first avengers movie so he basically said the exact same thing just a little while ago
also the owen wilson joke about everywhere he goes there's death destruction of worlds is a clever
reference to the destruction of asgard during thor ragnarok which technically has not happened yet in
this loki's timeline remember owen wilson has seen the entirety of the original mcu timeline so he
saw the events of thor ragnarok avengers infinity war avengers end game but just to talk about kang
the conqueror connections and easter eggs the big connection to kang the conqueror during the loki
series or at least one of the big connections is that gugu mbatha-raw's character ravonna renslayer
is actually kang's long time love interest in the comics they didn't start out that way he
pursued her and she didn't want to have anything to do with him but eventually he won her over
we know that they cast jonathan majors as their king the conqueror of the mcu for ant-man 3
in the wasp quantomania they finally gave us a date for that it's coming out february 2023 so
they'll be filming that movie pretty soon i'm not expecting to see a ton of king the conqueror cameo
scenes during the loki series like if we're talking about wandavision in our experience
during falcon and winter soldier sort of tune your expectations accordingly i do think we're gonna
get a lot of easter eggs and references that'll help set up kang and explain where he comes from
world build so that when we actually get to ant-man 3 and you see him it all makes sense and
i love the idea that kang himself was originally part of the time variance authority like maybe
he's a former time keeper himself or one of the former judges like rent slayer but kang's deeper
connection to the time keepers these giant statues that you see those are representations of the time
keepers themselves these beings that exist at the end of all time in space kang was born in the far
distant future many thousands of years in the future after they'd learned to manipulate time
and he sort of becomes this warrior across many different timelines and multiple realities
eventually he becomes very embittered when he loses his son in many different timelines and
his love interests ravana renslayer many different alternate versions of her wind up dying eventually
the timekeepers recognize what an asset he could be for them and they try to recruit him to be a
force for good in exchange for that they offer him immortality so he winds up accepting their offer
and through that becomes the immortus character who sort of exists in this other alternate limbo
dimension so maybe we'll see a version of that play out in the mcu eventually like you have king
the conqueror the regular version of him who's just hopping around in different timelines being
a villain then throughout his story loki's style you see many alternate versions of him popping
up in the timeline i know a lot of you are also asking which other characters from the thor movies
are going to cross over onto the loki series and what's going on with loki or this version of loki
crossing over into thor 4 love and thunder we do know that loki references thor and heimdall during
the trailer during that db cooper scene like he says brother heimdall i hope you're ready as the
bifrost catches them after he jumps out of the plane we see many versions of loki and alternate
versions of asgard so i do think that it's a safe bet that we will see at least a couple of
the bigger thor characters from the movies showing up on the series and cameos all the marvel disney
plus series are meant to set up movies so it sounds like the loki series will also help set up
some of the events of thor 4 love and thunder then the events of loki season 2 whatever that plot's
going to be will take place after the movie but if there are any other big easter eggs that i haven't
already covered in my videos that you saw in the trailer here just write them below in the comments
and let me know what other bonus videos you want me to do for the loki series before we get episode
one there will be a bunch more trailers between now and then too i'm still working on a couple
of the trailer videos from yesterday my next one will be for that new shang chi trailer footage so

phase 4 trailer in that brand new eternals trailer and click here for my other shang chi
