    You missed the best part! Loki shapeshifted into a woman after Thor was in the dress. Loki could have made himself look like Freya from the beginning, but the idea of getting Thor to dress like a woman was too funny an idea for him to pass up.

      The shapeshifting rules are not universal when it comes to these ancient stories. Thor also has the ability to shapeshift, but it's seldom used in the stories.

    Loki's sassy poses in this episode killed me, especially 5:23
    This is one of my favorite Norse myths (my parents are big classics nerds, so I grew up with tales of Greek and Norse mythology instead of the more typical fairy tales). As others have mentioned, Loki is a shapeshifter, so he easily could have disguised *himself* as Freya instead of Thor, or even cast an illusion over Thor, but instead, he put the burliest, most macho of the gods in a dress and just laughed his ass off as the Frost Giants failed to notice the extremely obvious ruse. Not often you get myths that are pretty much just straight comedies. Well, except for all the murder at the end. This *is* still a Norse myth, after all.

      I would say it depends on the exact stories. You got to remember these stories weren't concrete like christianity eventually became. With how most of the stories are structured it would appear Loki is a brother, as he is treated as an equal peer to Thor. If your region didn't know or recognize the versions of the stories where Loki was Odin's brother not Thor's you might believe that instead the two are indeed brothers. We see this with Greek and Egyptian gods, one story two gods are siblings, others spouses, others unrelated, and still others they are parent and child or all of those at once.

      because Loki is Thor's adopted brother in some canons of Norse mythology; It's not exclusively in the depiction of the Marvel films.

In this myth specifically, Loki is normally described as being Thor's brother.

      Maybe. But Loki would not have been able to escape with the hammer if he went alone. Loki could actually have been impregnated by the frost giant if he was forced to remain as a woman. One way or another Thor had to go to the Frost Giants and he had to be under a veil to diguise himself, which means Thor had to appear as Freya.

    Loki was not Thor's brother I have to say this. Loki was the blood brother of Odin (no blood relation). Upon their oath they promised each other never to drink or dine without the other, though that oath is almost always usually forgotten lol

    I love the idea of Thor dressing up as freyja and forced to deal with a horny giant but it’s also sad that we didn’t get the other side of the story where freyja her self goes and when the giant gives her Thor’s hammer she does the exact same thing Thor did but with Thor’s hammer to set an example

    In the version I read, Loki suggested the plan as a joke, and then Heimdall suggested it seriously. the Aesir were skeptical of the plan at first, but went along with it since Heimdall could see the future.

      Personally, i prefer Neil Gaiman, especially how he does Freya’s words:
      Freya: “You may not have my cloak.”
      Loki: “Thor’s hammer is missing, I need to find it.”
      Freya; “I’ll get you the cloak”
      Absolute gold.

  • @jacobandrews2663
    @jacobandrews2663 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love the video but IMPORTANT CORRECTION: Loki was NOT Thor's brother instead, he was an ambiguous figure that sometimes counted as part of the aesir and sometimes as part of the jotun. Loki also made a pact with Odin where one would not drink until the other was served as well, they were made blood brothers by that oath they made to each other. Loki often found himself adventuring with Thor, but he was not related to him
    Maybe you guys could make an informative pop-up correcting the mistake

    As much as I may take a crack at the MCU’s interpretation of Norse myths, I would have love it if, as a throw away line, Loki brought this up. Or if Thor was tossed into a bridal store in one of the fight scenes and a veil fell on him before he flew out.

    I hope you plan on covering another story about the time another giant lord used some illusions to make fools of Loki and Thor. Also, it's not surprising how frequently in these Norse legends we get an antagonist who would try to get the hand in marriage of the beautiful Frey twins only to fail (though there was that one time when they targeted the goddess in charge of the apples of youth)

      @Suppertimepuss2 the norse gods are real. They've dug up actual statues from the ground from people who knew them centuries ago. There are people who worship the norse gods today. Just because Jack Kirby and Larry Lieber made up a comic book inspired by norse myths doesn't elevate the comic books to a "telling."
