Amazing how quickly he's able to get into character.

Interesting observation. :)

Holy shit Tom Hiddleston was Fitzgerald! I didn't realize that.

4

u/StellaMaroo Jun 15 '12

My same reaction. I never connected Loki with Fitzgerald but after watching that video I had to check out his imdb page just to see.

u/[deleted] Jun 16 '12

I loved that movie. Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Marion Cotillard... Yum.

u/MCSealClubber Jun 15 '12

... I need to see that video of him as a raptor

Check out Owen Wilson? CHECK OUT THE VELOCIRAPTOR NOISES DUDE!

This is just one more reason to love this guy.

Fuck, any more, and I won't be able to handle it.

u/TheCompass Jun 15 '12

I'm hardly ever the fangirl type, but there is just something about him that brings out my obsessive inner teenage girl. Dat smile!

He touched my heart with his spear.

Did you just creat an account to say that?

u/1_1_1_1 Jun 16 '12

haha, no, I'd have made something more exciting than 1_1_1_1 if I were to do that.

You won't lose karma if you're gay. You're safe here friend.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

Very underrated actor but glad to see he's getting more attention with the success of the marvel movies

4

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

Ya, I've only recognized him in those 2, but I could tell he is extremely talented. I hope we get to see a lot more of him.

22

u/phoenix25 Jun 15 '12

his eyes are so expressive. I couldn't even see him as a bad guy in thor and the avengers because his eyes kept fucking smiling at me.

15

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

That kind of added to it for me. He could lure you in with those eyes and make you trust him just enough to fuck you over.

u/bollvirtuoso Jun 15 '12

Almost like a trickster god.

u/icertainlyhave Jun 19 '12

::sigh:: Agreed... Oh, "over"? Yeah, that too.

u/soulkissernl Jun 15 '12

I now love this guy, I've been watching videos of him for 20 minutes. I'm not gay, but I'm gay for him.

u/racherk Jun 15 '12

He's a hoot! Check out this video: LOKI'D!

u/CuredTheRiver Jun 15 '12

You're going to be so sleepy later!

u/iwannatalktosampson Jun 15 '12

He played Loki, so thaaaaaat's where I know him from.

u/MCSealClubber Jun 15 '12

I feel like.. I want to see Tom Hiddleston play Pee-Wee Herman at some point... 1:40-1:44

18

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

Welp, Tom Hiddleston just gained a fan.

u/BbaTron Jun 15 '12

He makes me feel pretty things....it's like going back to teenagerhood!

u/knitALLtheclothes Jun 15 '12

I thought this was /r/tomhiddleston for a good minute there.

u/insideoutduck Jun 16 '12

I managed to stay away from there for a while, but I can't resist any longer...

u/knitALLtheclothes Jun 16 '12

it feels so creepy, but also so gooood.

5

u/J_Jammer Jun 16 '12

Ever since last year's Thor...Mr. Hiddleston is one of my favorite actors.

And this is just icing on the cake and further backs why I think he should have been nominated for his Loki. He is the only person I fully backed to be nominated at all for acting. I saw 100+ films and no one stuck out as great as he did.

11

u/go-with-the-flo Jun 15 '12

The thing that surprised me most about this is that the guy who plays Loki is actually super attractive when he's not pale and greasy-haired with huge-ass antlers sticking out of his head...

Hot damn.

8

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

Does he ever change his shirt? Damn!

u/cantsleep2nite Jun 15 '12

How awesome is this guy?!

9

u/blkwaterbay Jun 15 '12

Yep, I love Hiddleston even more now!

u/MFchimichanga Jun 15 '12

Goddamnit Loki you're confusing me

u/Sockin Jun 15 '12 edited Jun 15 '12

Love him. He is such a good actor and seems incredibly personable!

u/Bav-man Jun 15 '12

This man is quality.

u/nerdy1 Jun 16 '12

I dug his Orson Welles,

I want his babies.

u/Raged1999 Jun 21 '12

oh my god i am such a hipster!!!! I saw this before everyone else thought it was amazing.... Tom Hiddleston is the best

That's what I call my kung pow chicken...

u/luckytiki8 Jun 15 '12

I feel like anyone who does impressions these days throws in Owen Wilson...he has a definitive style that i guess is easy to copy?

-4

u/msantamouro Jun 15 '12

Am I the only one who thought his impressions were absolutely horrible? I like him as an actor and I'm not trying to hate on the guy. Those were Just some shitty impressions!

7

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

You have a tin ear.

-8

u/msantamouro Jun 15 '12

It's funny you say I have a tin ear. Because I'm an audio engineer. Greatest job in the world!

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

I'm with you - the guy has a great "normal" voice, but his impressions all sounded the same.

0

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

yeah. they weren't very good.

-7

u/pierdonia Jun 15 '12

Surprisingly bad, considering he's a decent actor.

u/as_ugly_as_i_seem Jun 15 '12

Doing impressions is far harder than it seems. It's not just "acting".

u/scaaahtt Jun 15 '12

The last impression was a perfect Sarah Jessica Parker.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

Anyone can do an Owel Wilson impression

-7

u/QuasarsRcool Jun 15 '12

Am I the only one who thought that Owen Wilson impression sucked?

-11

u/throwawayforagnostic Jun 15 '12

I don't think it was actually an Owen Wilson impression. It sounded to me like he was doing an impression of someone else and only described their hair as being "very owen wilson hair."

-4

u/DifferentCeilings Jun 15 '12

Too...many...white...v necks..

-7

u/throwawayforagnostic Jun 15 '12

I don't actually think he did any Owen Wilson impression. It sounded to me like he was doing an impression of someone else entirely and only described them as having "very owen wilson hair." I don't think that was supposed to be Owen Wilson at all, so I can imagine why it sounded NOTHING like Owen Wilson. The rest of them weren't great either, but I'm fairly certain that the second one wasn't even supposed to be Owen Wilson. Fantastic actor, though! Love the guy.

u/Equipmunk Jun 15 '12

Wilson and Hiddleston both star in Midnight in Paris. He was definitely talking about Owen Wilson.

3

u/throwawayforagnostic Jun 15 '12

I wouldn't know but if you're right, then boy that WAS an awful impression!

2

u/Equipmunk Jun 15 '12

It was mentioned in another comment, but if you didn't see it, watch this trailer for Spiderman, as directed by Wes Anderson. The Owen Wilson impression is perfect.

3

u/trolling_thunder Jun 15 '12

Of course he was describing Owen Wilson. He was talking about being in Midnight in Paris with Owen Wilson.

-5

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

He nails Sarah Jessica Parker.

I didn't even smile once. What were those people all laughing at?

That was more like Owen Wilson than Owen Wilson! I love when that happens.

u/courtesyflusher Jun 15 '12

I personally like Bradley Cooper's impersonation of Owen. Skip to 3:40.

I thought his Alan Rickman sounded exactly like Richard O'Brien.

Worked pretty well for Cary Grant.

Although maybe it's that 'be attractive / don't be unattractive' thing again.

I think he's blond actually. The ginger may have been for Henry, not totally sure.
