Line 38:
*** He was un''harmed''. He ''was'' affected, in the sense that it brought out the Jotun blue in his skin where he was touched. But then, that's really a bit too blatant to be "fridge" anything.
** "Only one of you can ascend to the throne, but both of you were born to be kings."
*** Side note: Am I the only one who saw a pair of immortals being told they were "born to be kings", and immediately detected a [[Shout
*** Actually, [[Tropers/AFP|This Troper]] immediately thought of ''[[
** On the other hand, if you know the originating myths and/or comics, it's not really that big of a surprize to begin with. :)
* Why did SHIELD take Darcy's iPod? Not because it just happened to be with all the other stuff, but because ''it had a picture of Thor on it!''
Line 51:
** In a quick scene we see Loki riding Fenrir to the Bifröst.
* To quote the main page, Thor develops from a "reckless, selfish [[Boisterous Bruiser]]" to [[The Hero]]... in other words, he develops from someone close to the Thor of Norse mythology to being close to the Thor of the comics!
* Crazy meta levels of Fridge... Something: Realizing how much Loki seems to be based on [[
* Look at the Destroyer - it's the ''same size'' as the Frost Giants, armed with a ''burning'' beam weapon that provides some [[Loud of War]] on the side. It's an anti-Frost Giant WMD.
* This is more linked to the comics than the film, but still sorta present by the Donald Blake fake identity thing. Donny Blake is a doctor, and Thor, in the myths, was a God of many things besides thunder, including Healing. Stan Lee's choice to make him a doctor was a glaring refference to Norse Mythology that no one else seems to have noticed.
Line 75:
** Loki was trying to goad Thor into fighting at that point. It's much more likely that it was just an idle threat to piss Thor off, and he didn't actually ''mean'' it. This version of Loki isn't a mustache twirling villain who's going to do something like that [[For the Evulz]].
** Speaking as someone who is very good at playing the emotions of others, I can tell you that Loki was fishing during that exchange. He started with the most obvious triggers that he had known to be effective before, and then got more exotic as each one failed. He was out of control with anger and despair, but that actually makes this variety of lashing out more effective--not just because his visible pain was also causing Thor pain, but because it made him less inhibited and more (temporarily) comfortable with saying things he wouldn't dream of acting on.
** As of [[The Avengers (
* How could Loki not know he's half-giant? [[Norse Mythology]] states this right out, and in this film, Earth got its mythology from Asgard. How could something that was common knowledge on Earth be a secret in Asgard?
** there are many details that don't line up between [[Norse Mythology]] and Marvel's Asgardians. Loki probably had heard it and simply assumed the humans got it wrong, as usual, when really they were on to something in this case.
