Somewhat surprisingly, Loki has become one of the most popular characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, if not the most popular character.
Tom Hiddleston has done an incredible job as the Asgardian God of Mischief, playing both villain and anti-hero to date with great success, and amidst a sea of superheroes he has stood out emphatically.
To date, he has had some brilliant moments – a lot of which have been funny thanks to Hiddleston’s witty and charismatic portrayal of the character and the great chemistry he has with the actors around him.
This article will list the ten funniest Loki moments in the Marvel Cinematic Universe so far (in chronological order)…
“Damn” (Thor)
Loki wasn’t at his funniest in his first Marvel Cinematic Universe outing – 2011’s Thor – but he still made us all laugh once or twice, most notably in the fight between his and Thor’s group and the Frost Giants of Jotunheim.
The Asgardians were all set to leave without a physical altercation, with King Laufey having warned them that a fight would trigger a full-on war between Asgard and Jotunheim – one that Odin had fought hard to avoid for many years – but one of the Frost Giant sentries said “run back home, little princess” just as they’d turned to leave.
Loki knew Thor wouldn’t let that lie, humorously uttered “damn” and the inevitable fight began. The Asgardians were never really troubled in the battle, but they were soon massively outnumbered, which prompted Odin to appear – and any humour that was left in the air was quickly dissipated by his more than understandable anger at his son.
