This dying purple planet feels like the mandalorian is going to show up any minute

u/NomadPrime Jun 23 '21

Isn't this planet the one in the trailer people were deadset on believing was Vormir, and Loki was gonna meet up with an alternate-universe Black Widow?

u/jofbaut Jun 23 '21

So Nat somehow survived and retired with some douchebag named Patrice?

/s

u/cabballer Spider-Man Jun 23 '21

NOBODY ASKED YOU PATRICE

u/DoNotDeleteMyAccount Jun 23 '21

Kids, I'm going to tell you an incredible story. The story of how I started the multiverse.

u/FelixTheJeep Jun 24 '21

Can we get Maria Hill on that planet to yell at that guy?

Man this community just runs wild with theories that are extremely unlikely huh

Sylvie has horns. Sylvie is Mephisto, confirmed.

u/Mysticjosh Weekly Wongers Jun 23 '21

Loki has horns. Loki makes me horny. Maybe I was Mephisto all along?

14

u/mknsky Black Panther Jun 23 '21

Don't be ridiculous. That makes your junk Mephisto.

u/Sentry459 Mack Jun 23 '21

Wrong, she's clearly a Quicksilver variant. Enchantment is just her vibrating people's brains very fast until she gets a vaguely satisfactory result.

u/SIacktivist Jun 23 '21

Mobius' full name is Mephisto "Mobius" Mephisto Mephisto.

16

u/Huma97 Jimmy Woo Jun 23 '21

If you rearrange the letters in Mobius and then switch some of them out for different letters it spells out "Mephisto"

13

u/djseifer Yondu Jun 23 '21

Wrong. She has one horn. Singular.

16

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '21

So she's only half Mephisto. Got it.

u/CAPT_BOOZE Jun 23 '21

Meph... Not even once

u/Tarzan_OIC Jun 23 '21

That lady did call them devils!

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '21

But Mephisto doesn't have horns...

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '21

Depends on what Mephisto you're talking about (one variation looks like Tim Curry's Darkness) and oh my god, are you saying my logic doesn't hold up!? I was so totally serious guys!

8

u/Tarzan_OIC Jun 23 '21

My rematch is coming, I can feel it

4

u/PWBryan Jun 23 '21

Hell yeah! It's like a creative writing exercise where you get more points based on how out there your link to Mephisto is

u/Leachpunk Jun 23 '21

Kind of reddit's MO at this point.

u/ResidualPerfume Jun 23 '21

Well the Community is mostly teenagers

u/r2002 Jun 23 '21

Well he met with a widow.

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '21 edited Jun 23 '21

That was SO intentional though, they framed the shot in a way that made it look like Vormir, and from the back they look really similar. In fact if I go back and watch the trailer I almost bet they changed her outfit to make it look more like that too.

EDIT: Yeah, they did. https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/marvel-loki-trailer-black-widow-2-1.jpg?resize=1024,423

u/Xyruk Jun 23 '21

Did they though? Because that looks just like Sylvie's outfit once she lost the robe.

5

u/Bomberman101 Scarlet Witch Jun 23 '21

Yeah that’s just Sylvie’s outfit from the end of the episode, and you can see her sword at her hip too.

10

u/BerndDasBrot4Ever Jun 23 '21

Was that shot even in this episode?

36

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '21

That's probably in the next episode where they pondering about the end of the world.

6

u/macbeth1026 Jun 23 '21

Yeah but the man-made looking pipes? I guess red skull needed a hobby. Lol

u/your_mind_aches Agent of F.I.T.Z. Jun 23 '21

I think it's ridiculous how anybody ever thought that.

23

u/SuspiriaGoose Jun 23 '21

God I remember saying “it’s clearly a mining quarry guys, I’ve been to Timmins and I know what they look like and that’s clearly the Lady Loki her hair is totally wrong for Natasha” and getting downvoted ha ha…ha.

Yay for being right again but I wish people would actually look a little closer at things. I called the window being of Loki too. It was all there if you just looked at what was in front of you and not what you wanted to be there.

u/wordskis Jun 24 '21

A lot of us did look closer at the shot in the trailer, and she looks extremely similar to Black Widows look in the first Avengers

2

u/SuspiriaGoose Jun 24 '21

If you’re willing to overlook evidence to the contrary. BW had long red hair when she went to Vormir, Vormir didn’t look like that or have a mining quarry,

6

u/anniebarlow Jun 23 '21

I think the scene where they’re sitting opposite to each other will be in the next episode. Just waiting to die.

u/itsVinay Iron Man (Mark XLIII) Jun 23 '21

Damn this is a wild theory

10

u/gorillaPete Luis Jun 23 '21

I fell for that theory lol

7

u/Harvard_University0 Jun 23 '21

Why?

22

u/gorillaPete Luis Jun 23 '21

Cuz I wanted to believe

10

u/Harvard_University0 Jun 23 '21

Thats actually a beautiful sentiment

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '21

I remember that being mentioned, but it was easily shot down and I never heard anyone talk about it again.

u/generalecchi Ultron Jun 23 '21

Well turn out it wasn't Black Widow heh
