| Me: | So when you see the 4 year old boy pull the little girl's hair... |
| Students: | He likes her! |
| Me: | Now they are around 11 or 12 and he grabs her arm and wrestles her to the ground even though she calls him a jerk and yells at him to leave her alone. |
| Students: | That is just how boys are. |
| Me: | Now they are 18 and he grabs her arm and-- |
| Students: | Oh, that's not okay. |
| Me: | Really? How would he know? How would she know? How would you know? You just told me that for the first 17 years of these children's lives that you thought it was cute, sweet, and natural for a boy to grab a girl and be rough with her. |
| Students: | Oh. |
| Me: | Oh, is right. |
let me just tell you briefly about these amazing camera shots and their symbolism:
shot #1: Thor and Loki as kids are equal with their father almost out of reach for the both of them (his face is out of the shot) - though they are standing next to each other, still Odin is the one separating them.
shot #2: Odin still separates them,thy still are inferior, even though they both have grown to match him (you see Odin fully). However while Loki faces him (yearning to live up to his father’s expectations), it it him Odin shows his back, while his left shoulder is pointed to Thor his true son and only heir, who is not able to look at his father due to his conflict towards him. The brothers now start to turn their backs on each other: the beginning of their paths parting.
in case you thought there weren’t enough reasons for this movie to make me cry like a fucking child.
Not to mention the fact that Thor is always, always, on Odin’s right-hand side, the side reserved for the heir. Loki remains on the left, the weaker, less important side.
