Oh dude, I had a LOT of concerns about Frigga' s death but they handled it so much better than I thought they would. She gets a badass fight scene, and she dies defending another woman (Jane) from certain death. She is defiant to the end and never gives in to what Malekith demands of her. Odin is devastated and does stupid things because of it while Loki and Thor pick themselves up and band together, putting together this crazy plan involving all of their friends to get out of Asgard in order to stop the elves, to save Jane and to get vengeance for their mom. I know it's a fridging but Loki's entire motivation is Frigga and there are wonderful character moments where they talk about her and what she meant to them. There's a gorgeous funeral with almost all the asgardians present; I cried very hard.I don't want to spoil too much, but during this adventure Loki does some great stuff with Jane, too.
Loki's death was a fake out the entire time. It's sad to watch him apologize to Thor and turn blue and gasp out, but it's so obvious he isn't really dead that it almost takes you out of the moment when it does happen. He was never actually dead at all. The way he reveals himself again will blow your mind and leave you with more questions, I think.
Plus all of the jarring funny stuff happened after Loki's "death" not Frigga' s, iirc.
Everyone sounds so positive about this movie -- way more than I expected. I'm looking forward to the fight scene a lot, but ugh, my feels. ;; Couldn't we have a vengeance arc and then get her back?
The spoiler gifs have started to pop up on tumblr. Augh, some of that dialog is so very not okay. ;;
If you see any good Frigga fic, could you shunt it my way?
