"I wanted only to protect you from the truth..." "Why? Because I am the monster parents tell their children about at night?" When I watch Thor for the first time I was shocked by its depth. I thought it would it be just another "smash-em-up" adventure yet the real story ended up being about the fall of two brothers. It was heart breaking and Loki broke my heart more than anything. Tom Hiddleston (the actor who played him) called him a "lost prince" and that is what I tried to show with this video. His downfall... all originating from his desire to prove himself as a worthy son. If you haven't seen Thor... well, this is probably going to be pretty confusing. The short version though is Loki and Thor are brothers. Thor is heir to the throne but gets banished. Meanwhile, Loki discovers that he is actually the abandoned son of the king of the Frost Giants. The Frost Giants are Asgard's sworn enemy. Loki realizes that his adoptive father lied to him his whole life and this knowle! dge begins his downward spiral as he goes too far in his quest to prove himself worthy of the throne. He tries to kill his brother and destroy all the entire realm of the Frost Giants. And yeah... that wasn't short at all but it's a complicated movie so.... *shrugs* Music info is in the video. Voice overs: "I could have done it father. I could have done it... for you... for all of us." "Because no matter how much you claim to love me, you could never have a frost giant sitting on the throne of Asgard ...
