We’ve got a new “Pitch Meeting” video to share with you that features series creator Ryan George as Screenwriter Guy offering an amusing pitch for Marvel’s Loki to Studio Executive Guy. As always with these videos, there are a good amount jokes made at the expense of Loki.
While Loki was a great series that Marvel fans enjoyed, there are plenty of things about it that can be poked fun of, and this Pitch Meeting pretty much covers all of them.
Since his first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe more than a decade ago in 2011’s Thor, Tom Hiddleston’s Loki has stood out as a super charismatic villain in a sea of less-than-charismatic Marvel villains. Subsequently appearing in several Marvel movies and surviving multiple on-screen deaths, Loki is now the star of his very own series on Disney Plus.
Loki definitely raises some questions though. Like why wasn’t Loki’s time travel allowed by the TVA if it’s exactly what caused the Avengers to time travel, which WAS allowed? How does watching a quick video montage completely change Loki, who was literally just slaughtering thousands of people in New York just a few moments ago? How do Loki’s actions in Pompeii not create a butterfly effect, when he causes people to perish in different positions than intended? Has nobody with enchantment powers ever been pruned before? When will we get to see Owen Wilson on a jet ski?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Loki! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
