I suppose a lot of people must be watching the series recently because of Avengers: Doomsday.
It's the fifth TV series to achieve this feat on Letterboxd, after Squid Game, The Queen's Gambit, WandaVision, and Adolescence. Loki and WandaVision are the only live-action Marvel series to have achieved this feat.
Meanwhile, the only Marvel Studios films that haven't yet reached the one million mark on Letterboxd are The Marvels (594k) and Captain America: Brave New World (870k).

Those 2 were the only ones I enjoyed watching. Rest all were meh to utter dog shit.
SteelfireX2025-12-20 20:03
Well, if you're trying to make a hot take, this is certainly one.
g0dgamertag92025-12-20 21:35
It’s pretty lukewarm except I’d include wandavision with meh to dogshit
8P69SYKUAGeGjgq2025-12-21 03:58
Wandavision being bad is a "core of the sun" take.
g0dgamertag92025-12-21 05:03
“Meh to dogshit” could mean it’s either 6/10 or 1/10. I’d have wandavision higher on the meh to dogshit scale so idk what’s so crazy about that.

I would say Loki and WandaVision have the best writing, but some of the other shows have decent writing. I thought FaTWS and Hawkeye were solid and worthwhile.
closetsquirrel2025-12-20 20:12
Moon Knight was great, and if you count Werewolf by Night that was also fun.
EightBiscuit012025-12-20 21:19
4 of these are COVID shows and the 5th is Adolescence. Nothing really to add, just that it goes to show how little there was to do besides watch TV
ilovecfb2025-12-21 20:24
Good point, I feel like Queen’s Gambit and Tiger King were cultural zeitgeists at the time and now their impact feels completely negligible
Bergerboy142025-12-22 06:52
QG at least lead to a surge in new chess players and interest on the internet.
Jack_Hatchet2025-12-20 22:51
It’s hilarious how skippable The Marvels seems to be. That’s still the only film I have no intention of watching years later
DeferredFuture2025-12-20 23:01
The plot of the movie is actually relatively important and the movie itself is decent. I’d rewatch it over Quantumania, Brave New World or Love and Thunder, so there’s that.
ProbablyCarl2025-12-20 23:09
Yeah but the Internet said it's a bad movie so lots of people think they are clever for parroting the opinions of others without making their own judgement. Definitely better than the movies you mentioned.
DeferredFuture2025-12-20 23:16
I can see why audiences would think it’s pointless because the trailers didn’t really do it justice, but yeah it really is an important movie in the multiverse saga, or at least it was supposed to be.
Maybe they’ll cut out a lot of the plot line in Doomsday since the movie bombed and it will retroactively become unimportant, who knows. But it’s clear as day watching it that it was _supposed_ to be important. I wish people would just give it a chance instead of writing it off because it bombed.
ShadesOfTheDead2025-12-20 23:25
That isn’t necessarily true. I’ve never watched it because the premise just doesn’t interest me.
SecretWarsIsComing2025-12-21 00:04
It’s got some great beats, and a few that are meh. It’s sad when Agents of Shield and Captain Marvel did a better job of highlighting Kree and Skrull life than Skrull Invasion and The Marvels. Add to that a dance and song-centric fight or two, and a Cats/Fleurken-fest sidequest, and it just rang a bit too Disney-fied and less Marvel-liciousness.
But again, there are some banger beats to the story, the acting is all great, and as others said some pivotal stuff happens here that connects Monica’s (and the Marvels’) story up between CM, WandaVision, Ms. Marvel, and future multiversal twists/turns.
ShadesOfTheDead2025-12-21 05:45
>as others said some pivotal stuff happens here that connects Monica’s (and the Marvels’) story up between CM, WandaVision, Ms. Marvel, and future multiversal twists/turns.
I wouldn’t say that just yet.
SecretWarsIsComing2025-12-21 06:41
I’m hoping atp they push forward because I want to see The Marvels become central characters, and I’m invested in what MOM and NWH brought to the table, too.
CaptHayfever2025-12-21 05:41
"I personally am not following a trend" doesn't mean "there is no trend."
ShadesOfTheDead2025-12-20 23:16
>The plot of the movie is actually relatively important
I wouldn’t say that just yet.
DeferredFuture2025-12-20 23:17
I guess what I meant to say is their intention was for it to be important and that shows in the movie, but obviously they could retroactively make it unimportant.
photon1701d2025-12-21 03:17
How is the plot important? Since that movie, there has been nothing or relevance that followed it up, other than Beast appearing in Doomsday. Was Monica Rambeau even mentioned? We have not seen Nick Fury since then. No mention of Skrulls or Ms Marvel. As of this moment, you could remove the marvels and secret invasion our of the mcu and it would not mean a damn thing. I'm not saying that they were bad but just piss poor story telling on MCU's part.
beardofjustice2025-12-21 00:45
While not the greatest, there is a fight scene involving teleporting that I think is one of more original fight scenes marvel has done
Affectionate-Bus9272025-12-20 23:59
The Marvels is such a good movie.
Any-Transition952025-12-21 02:11
Ok it's not a great movie, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. It's a fun Summer superhero flick, and that's all it manages to be. The villain was terrible, on par with Thor Dark World, but at least the Marvels action sequences were fun to watch. The movie is not even close to how bad Love & Thunder, Quantumania, or Brave New World were, yet people make a bigger deal out of The Marvels, because they have ulterior motives.
Affectionate-Bus9272025-12-21 02:16
in my opinion it is a great movie, dark world was a great movie too, i love quantumania and majors as kang is peak.
Affectionate-Bus9272025-12-21 20:07
crazy how hateful people are, just my opinion, didn't even want to argue or fight. but if you really want, i can do this all day...
BarackaFlockaFlame2025-12-21 14:43
I got downvoted like crazy for saying that I had fun with the movie but that the villain did absolutely nothing for me. Like c'mon, that wasn't an enemy people will really remember at all.
forevertrueblue2025-12-28 05:50
The actress (Zawe Ashton) already had some crossover with Marvel fans which might be why; she was in a Broadway play with Charlie Cox and Tom Hiddleston and they did that whole Marvel Halloween joke and is in a relationship with the latter. Regardless she wasn't the issue with the character.
Repulsive_Season_9082025-12-21 07:22
No it's not.
herostone92025-12-21 07:27
Yea you are definitely off the mark there. Your opinion but the majority have spoken. It was a flop at the box office and it’s at 50% on most review sites.
I saw it opening weekend and I’m a diehard MCU fan and still thought the movie was lacking.
eyebrows3602025-12-21 10:24
> 50% on most review sites
63% critics, 79% audience on RT. If "most" of the sites *you* like to look at are below that, I think you're indicating the type of sites you like to frequent. Anyone critical of drinking in some capacity, perhaps?
herostone92025-12-21 17:52
Cool you picked one site. Still the movie was a big ass flop so justify that.
eyebrows3602025-12-21 18:18
YouTubers are not "sites".
Anyway, thanks for confirming who you are!
herostone92025-12-21 18:20
Imagine being so delusional. Takes 5 seconds to find this fact - ‘The Marvels’ Ends Box Office Run as Lowest-Grossing MCU Movie in History
*Mic Drop*
eyebrows3602025-12-21 18:25
Imagine thinking you're on such a "crusade" against "the wokes" that you think stating a fact *that I'm already clearly aware of* is a "mic drop" moment. Get over yourself.
herostone92025-12-21 19:20
You sound upset 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Affectionate-Bus9272025-12-21 20:01
"the majority" in the Third Reich loved Adolf Hitler
herostone92025-12-21 20:03
Salty too huh
ViralGameover2025-12-20 18:50
Loki is incredible, easily the best thing they put out.
Agatha, WandaVision, Daredevil and Hawkeye are all up there for me, but Loki was just different.
sillysocks342025-12-20 19:54
Loki just felt more cinematic. Everything else felt like TV and that’s not necessarily a knock it’s just that the quality of Loki overall was on another level.
feetandballs2025-12-20 22:45
The highest stakes, biggest sacrifice, redemption arc, mystery element. Lots going for it story-wise.
AEveryDayIdiot2025-12-20 23:07
One thing I love about Hawkeye was its low stakes, felt refreshing and was just overall Christmas fun.
mrgo0dkat2025-12-21 21:04
And the music
Joshieboy_Clark2025-12-21 18:13
How the handled Loki is how Disney should have handled Doctor Who
forevertrueblue2025-12-28 05:51
Loki felt like TV to me in a way too but in a good way
closetsquirrel2025-12-20 20:13
Loki was all the best parts of Marvel and Doctor Who mashed together in the best way possible.
Mr-Stuff-Doer2025-12-20 20:55
If the ending didn’t make half of S2 pointless I’d say you might be right. But the season had one of the longest episodes of MCU TV spent developing a character who literally did nothing
evapotranspire2025-12-21 07:45
Who literally did nothing? Is holding the entire Multiverse together "nothing"?
eyebrows3602025-12-21 10:26
> developing a character who literally did nothing
Sometimes the journey *is* the point. You don't have to punch some villain in the dick at the end of it to be considered to have "done something".
"Developing" *is* still "doing something".
tigerhawkvok2025-12-21 12:58
Kinda the wrong subreddit, but life before death, strength before weakness, and journey before destination.
Aarxnw2025-12-20 22:01
Loki was ridiculously good, Owen Wilson killed it. Haven’t enjoyed a show like that for a long time.
physicscat2025-12-21 03:20
I just credit Tom Hiddleston, he truly loves this character.
And so do I.
Golbeza2025-12-21 12:31
I was so surprised with how good Agatha All Along was. I randomly put it on a few months ago while I was home sick and watched the whole thing in a day.
robodrew2025-12-20 20:12
I literally JUST rewatched this the other day. It's so, so good. Tom Hiddleson is an incredible actor.
Woooferine2025-12-21 06:12
Yes, he is.
If you haven't watched it, now is the perfect time to watch *The Night Manager*, since season 2 is debuting just right around the corner.
And Olivia Coleman (one of the few excellent parts of Secret Invasion)!
TheMoorNextDoor2025-12-20 20:21
Loki is the best TV show so it deserves to be 100% acknowledged and tuned into before Doomsday.
KlausKinki772025-12-20 20:25
For All Time, Always!
evapotranspire2025-12-20 20:31
My favorite thing Marvel has ever done (and that's a high bar). Excited to see it attain this accolade.
ArchdruidHalsin2025-12-20 20:41
I refuse to log it until they finally quite fence-riding on the inclusion of TV shows. Theoretically a TV tab is coming in '26.
Meylody2025-12-21 02:37
Where did you hear about it being added in 2026? I'm also waiting for this
ArchdruidHalsin2025-12-21 02:42
I'll admit, 2026 is me being hopeful. But they confirmed it back in '24 and [this was four days ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/Letterboxd/s/jmAipbo5Ye)
TheJack0fDiamonds2025-12-20 21:28
Loki and Wandavision there sitting pretty and deserved. I wish Agatha would follow suit. These three are really up there for me of the D+ MCU shows.
EarthboundMan52025-12-20 22:18
It's funny I actually went in and removed my ratings for the Marvel shows on Letterboxd because they announced they're working on properly implementing TV shows to Letterboxd, I thought it was supposed to be finished by now but no.
gdude99772025-12-21 01:29
is s2 worth the hype? i watched loki s1 when it came out and was GLUED to mu screen every week. s2 i never got around to watching, or i watched the first episode and never got back to it. Should i binge it tonight.
spooktember2025-12-21 04:23
S2 was phenomenal. With S1 and 2 you get a whole story. It was refreshing.
forevertrueblue2025-12-28 05:54
There seems to be a divide on which season was stronger, though both were well-liked.
At the risk of overgeneralizing S1 was more about character development and marinating on what it means to be a Loki, or "good" or "bad" in general, while S2 is more about the Multiverse plot and complications surrounding that. (I prefer S1 overall.)
Darksol5032025-12-21 02:39
You’re welcome.

marvelcomics222025-12-21 04:31
I didn't know Letterboxd has televison, wait I just checked they're starting to add shows.
bontakun2025-12-22 15:49
I strongly don’t want TV on letterboxd. It’s just scope creep.
essentialsdic2025-12-21 18:42
Loki series is among marvels top work. I still think about season 2 often
JDeegs2025-12-21 23:56
Very recently rewatched season 2, not because of doomsday or anything, just felt like revisiting it.
It is so incredible, particularly the last 3 episodes.
When it came out it was like a good book you couldn't put down - i didnt really know where they were going with the story and just couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next
Spacegirllll62025-12-22 09:22
I wrote one of my college applications essays on the score “Purpose is Glorious” from that show. Genuinely a life changing score and it’s a beautiful show as well
Jarita122025-12-28 13:06
Tom getting more freedom to do whatever he wanted, especially in S2, really showed. The long dialogues, almost theater setting for some scenes, it made it work and original.
The ending made me ironically want to see more of THIS Loki than thinking it was a perfect ending. I thought that for a while but I really need him to get some sort of happy end and to see him fully powered kicking ass of the bad guys for once
