Original troper here: look at the part of the trailer just before [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=7p7rocHEecE#t=75s Thor does his big NO]] (1:19, I believe - don't read the next bit unless you want trailer spoilers). [[spoiler: Look at who is the apparent ‘sacrifice’: who else would be wearing leather with green material for wrist-guards? Thor’s always preferred red and blue highlights and Jane’s not wearing leather. It’s already been established that Loki is probably not the type to kneel voluntarily. And apparently this is at the hands of MALEKITH THE ACCURSED, who is not some puny human or burly non-magic Asgardian but an accomplished Dark Elf magic-user not likely to be fooled by Loki-reflections. However, trailers are reputed to be repositories of misdirection of the finest quality, and the people behind these movies know that poking a hornet’s nest of Loki-fans is probably a good way to make sure they’ve got an audience.]]

[[WMG: SHIELD will show up with Phase II weapons.]]----
An extra-dimensional invasion of Dark Elves? This is exactly what Phase II was designed for. It wasn't ready in the Avengers, but the Chitauri invasion probably made them step up their time table. You just know SHIELD's been monitoring Jane anyway. When Jane travels to Asgard, Selvig and Darcy will probably alert SHIELD as soon as they can. At the very least, the United Kingdom's military/police will show up to fight the Dark Elf invasion.

* Alternatively, the film could just start him on a redemption arc which spans for a few more films (Avengers 2 & 3, Thor 3, etc). Like the troper said above, his actions can't be forgiven with a "warm hug and a rueful smile". A redemption arc spanning several films would be just as believable as him dying, as there would be plenty of time for him to make up for his mistakes and facing the consequences of what he's done.

As much as it pains me to say it, I think that Loki's redemption will come at the cost of his life - he'll jump in front of either Thor or Jane to save them from a Malekith-attack (there's a big NO from Thor in the trailer, maybe this is why). I mean, he's done a lot of terrible things, things that can't really be atoned for by the administration of a warm hug and a rueful smile. But then again, it might not be on the cards, it's in Marvel's best interests to keep the Loki-arc open because there are hordes of people counting down the days for this just for the chance to see the God of Mischief in action again - piratemonkey06.

** In that case, [[MouthOfSauron the Other]] will probably show, either part way through the movie to remind Malekith of their deal (like he did with Loki in ''Avengers''), or will appear in TheStinger to retrieve something of his to give to Thanos.



Malekith & Kurse's villainy will finally force Thor to go all out, Jotunheim style, perhaps following a WorldofCardboardSpeech. He'll end up causing a sizeable amount of collateral damage with lightning-amped hammer slams and the like. Maybe it'll be enough to take down Kurse, maybe it won't. This may put some strain on his relationship with Jane.

[[WMG: By the end of the movie Lady Loki will appear.]]
In Marvel canon, I'm pretty sure that he takes over Sif's body to become Lady Loki. Sif looks pretty jealous of Jane being brought to Asgard in the trailer, so maybe Loki will either be able to manipulate her into letting him take over her body, or will take it by force at her lowest emotional moment.

It will spend a little time on Earth, but a majority of the film will be spent on Asgard, with Jane, Darcy and Dr. Selvig as FishoutofWater and Thor attempting to help his friends navigate this strange new world, as they did for him.

[[WMG: Thor and Loki's EnemyMine.]]
These two are well known for teaming up in the comics. This is pretty much only when Asgard is under threat, though; after all, Loki can't rule Asgard if it's destroyed. In the Cinematic universe, though, Loki even said himself in the first film he doesn't want to rule Asgard; he just wanted to be Thor's equal. So how would Thor convince Loki to team up with him in this film? Their mother dies. [[http://screenrant.com/iron-man-3-thor-2-spoilers-rumors/all/1/ In this article here]] there are rumours that this may happen. Frigga is the only one left who Loki still cares about, and with her death (possibly at the hands of the Dark Elves), it gives him a pretty good reason to briefly forget that he hates Thor's guts so they can team up and avenge her.

[[WMG: By the end of the movie, Loki will become the Kid Loki of ''JourneyIntoMystery''.]]
This movie is supposed to put Loki on a redemption arc. However, considering how many people Loki got killed in the first Thor movie and ''Film/TheAvengers'', it'd be pretty hard to redeem him fully without falling for ProtagonistCenteredMorality. But what if Loki does a HeroicSacrifice in this movie, and thus [[RedemptionEqualsDeath redeems]] himself? By the end movie Thor (or Odin) will then resurrect him as a kid (just like in the comics), and since the new Kid Loki isn't technically responsible for the old one's crimes, they could set him up as a proper AntiHero. Thus they can use one of the most popular interpretations of Loki from the comics, and also set up the plot for ''Thor 3'', where Thor and Loki will have to work together to defear Surtur.

Either [[spoiler: Malekith]] is hiding in an obscenely cold place, or [[spoiler: Malekith]] refuses to work with either humans or Asgardians, so Thor and Odin have to send Loki to talk to Malekith. Loki has mixed feelings on the whole thing. On the one hand, he's being used. On the other, they do need him...
