It wasn't just the series.

Waititi started that trend going with his blatant disregard for any character associated with the Thor title, and a good sized dose of blatant disrespect for the previous story and it's creators while he was at it.

The series just took Taika's crappy takes and dialed it up to 12.

Also, tags.

oh and another thing! what was the point of having Loki develop friendships so that way he could "have a meaningful relationship for the first time in his life" when Thor was RIGHT THERE the whole time???

The movie saga:

The series, for some reason:

#true #it wasn't a fantastic relationship #but it had promise and up until gagnarok; was getting to a more meaningful good between them #one of the reasons I hate ragnarok is what it did to thor & loki both separately and as two men raised from childhood together for 1500 yrs #Taika took Thor's growing character and threw him back to 2011 pre-ebanishment arrogant asshat Thor #and the result that and his personal opinions of loki coloring the story was utterly disappointing and frankly disgusting to me #it had it's moments #and it was clear they were (laughably mind you) TRYING to keep some of the established lore regardless of Jenga Block Boy..#but in the end it was the insubstantial background sort; while the characters were trashed from the ground up #Bruce; Valkyrie; Loki; and yes the title character too got srsly #pretty sad tho that they did focus on Frigga #& leave out & off the fact that she had her part as Odin's wife & Queen & the woman that raised and taught him:to never prepare him for 201 #pretty sure she knew she didn't give birth to that #pretty sure she knew him well enough at some point to know how he would have reacted if done wrong as Odin did it too #yet she did and said nothing for 1500 years and Loki recognized that too #meanwhile; Thor was lied to as well #and if you take Gagnarok and the extra lies of the third sibling into account?#Odin staying on earth specifically top lure a Hela who destroyed Mjolnir with one bare hand; to the middle of a very squishy; human Europe?#All to avoid the consequences of Odin & Frigga's shitty choices & bad parenting?#Reminder on that point: both of their natural kids went diehard for genocide .. that's the norm they raised as examples #Gagnarok should have been a VERY different movie #and would have if Taika had alllowed Thor to maintain his growing conscience #and actually see the similarities and nasty actually Odin was; rather than making fun of it in the first prison scene on Sakaar after ->#valk enslaved him
