TBH, I felt like Avengers was crammed full as it was. Going into Loki being under the influence of the Chitauri and explaining why it might be different for him vs. with Clint, it just feels like it would have been too much. But they could lay some subtext footwork for it and play around with the concept later on. I don't see it as violating anything within the Avengers itself, but then I'm fond of reveals that cause the audience to rewatch what came before with a new eye. *shrug*

I don't see it distracting people about why a villain isn't being a villain either. The cliched thing is for the estranged brother to reconcile and become a ~part of the team, right? Most people would expect that and not expect Loki to turn on them in the end. I give people enough credit to not get confused about a villain wanting to use the good guys against a third party.

I mean, I'm not hugely attached to the idea either. If I'm wrong about it, it's not like I'm going to go sobbing into my Cheerios or anything. I think it would add something, but other people are free to disagree.

What? *shudder* Why would Loki become part of the team? Ew, god, that would be utterly godawful and I'd HATE that. No way would any of the team ever forgive him or work with him, not after killing so many people, and especially not after what he did to Clint and to Coulson. I don't see what's wrong with Loki either staying evil and only dealing with Thor, or redeeming himself sans mind-control and still only dealing with Thor. After all, he didn't really give a shit about the Avengers did he? It was all "Ant. Boot." and he only fucked around with them to further his own ends and to hurt Thor.

I think you missed the point of my comment, dude. I was saying that's the cliched thing that audiences tend to expect, especially if Loki was mind controlled. My whole deal all along has been that I wanted Loki to be mind controlled but still be a bad guy.

Loki might be willing to use the Avengers as a tool to get revenge and I can see the Avengers taking the uneasy "enemy of my enemy is my friend enemy that I'll deal with later" option. Loki using them but then turning around and backstabbing them afterward is what I was going for, not Loki being a true member of the team.

Yeah, yeah, sorry, I was kind of going on a tangent there. :)

I think that's a cool story actually, but I seriously doubt it's ability to work in a film franchise. It sounds like it would make a much better comic book arc.

Tangents are cool, I was just confused. :D

I've no idea if it's possible to do it in a film but I've been pleasantly surprised by these guys before. Plus the wank! The epic, endless wank! It would piss off the woobie!Loki fans and the woobie!Loki haters at the same time. They'd both be wrong. I'm just evil enough to find that appealing in its own right.

But I'd be cool with it in a comic, too. Just not anytime soon, hopefully, since I'm really enjoying kid!Loki!

Me too! I can't wait for the popcorn party to start 8D

NA
LOL. Dude, no one but Loki fans could expect Loki to end up working with the team, and find it cliched.

The rest of the audience would go "WTF?!"
