Thor:Villains can also be attractive

After watching Thor ,the Marvel movie, in fact, my private favorite is not Thor, but Loki, the big villain in the film.The main character in Thor, of course, is Thor, the sun-dapper prince.Just talking about another prince, black hair Loki seems to have caught the attention of the audience.I am really confused by such a person who seems to be a supporting role.It's not a simple character, it's both good and evil, which is interesting, much more interesting to me than Thor.

The first chapter of Heroes and hero worship by Carlyle, is closely related to this comic story, which is about the history of the Nordic gods represented by Odin.Marvel's myth is to absorb nutrition from myths around the world.The comic concept of Thor comes from the Norse mythology, which is naturally no doubt.God Odin is a great hero, which is explained in Carlyle’s book.This one-eyed Viking pirate, the owner of the Hall of the Spirit, is at the heart of the Nordic story and is the guardian of all pirates.

According to Carlyle, Thor’s last appearance in front of the Danish king was on a sea boat, covered with a cloak, with extraordinary looks .This is the last time the Nordic gods appeared in the world, and there have been no such legends since.
In Norse mythology, Loki is a god who turns from the front to the negative,a "sinker" in the dark world, somewhat like Lord Vader in the "Star Wars", the black warrior, the father of Skywalker.Loki is good at strategy and blackmail. This basic character has been preserved byThor,the film of Marvel.Rocky is not Odin’s biological son,he is just the adopted son of Odin.The origin of his mischief has become a battle for the throne, trying to prove his worth to Odin and to fight for his father's love, this is brand new plot.
As for fighting along with Thor, there are many examples in the original Nordic mythology.From the Nordic mythology, Loki and Thor have always been good friends in some sense.But in the film, Loki became a spoiled symbol as a younger brother.However, I think that the reason why Loki is now being loved by the audience and willing to constantly "resurrect" him,is that In modern times, the great and glorious image of "hero" has begun to lose popularity.People start to like heroes with shortcomings, and they like the deep and mysterious personality of heroes.
The creation of the so-called "Dark Hero" is an important trend in the current Hollywood hero-themed movie.The mystery of the "complexity" of such characters is the focus of excavation, Loki is such an example.Why did the original villain Loki be so "attractive"?I think it is actually the integration of the elements of tragedy and some sort of consensus in the modern sense:Heroes are also people with shortcomings. Heroes or villains have special weaknesses and defects, which are more in line with human nature.The mystery of human nature is the eternal secret of exploring and excavating.It is even more an attempt to turn a villain into a hero.
