Vikings season 4 première

                                            Source: History Vikings

Hail Vikings,

I can officially say that Vikings season 4 will première on the 18th of February 2016 Thursday at 10 PM.

It will have 20 episodes so double the episode as we know before. Part 1 is 10 episodes and part 2 is 10 episodes.

(History Channel) and EW

The main players on the picture above are great. It is all again about betrayal. If I only look at the picture there is a lot going on. There you can see a Christian believe in the picture. Floki and Bjorn is most interesting. I think Ivar, Aslaug and Floki will betray Ragnar with the help of Bjorn. Although Bjorn asked for the arrest of Floki I think he only did it because Ragnar asked Bjorn to do it.

Bjorn and Floki the guarded and the guardian angel. Floki believes in the gods and has been faithful to Bjorn. Or will Ivar rule the table?  

Rollo and Kalf are almost with the back to each other. Rollo knows Kalf and Lagertha like one another. He has a totally different live so he has changed a lot. He turns his back to all what is old next to him his new wife who absolutely will try to kill him because she doesn't like him at all. In the trailer, she got a knife does she have the guts to kill him or is Rollo up to something else? 

We have two kings on the picture Ragnar still has issues to settle with King Eckbert but will he survive another journey to Wessex? Will he even make Kattegat in time? What about Paris will he see his brother Rollo again? All questions we will be given trough the season.

The relationship between Judith, King Eckbert and Aethelwulf seems different. The Wessex family torn apart. King Eckbert and Judith seem to have different agenda. Judith look fond of her father in law where King Eckbert only thinks about his self.

What will happen if Athelstan totally take control in Ragnar mind will it drive Ragnar crazy in the believe of Christianity or will he die a pagan. Ragnar will be in control of the outcome of Floki, Bjorn, Lagertha and Kalf. I think we will see Lagertha rule in Kattegat but will it be with Kalf and will Bjorn approve the relationship between Kalf and Lagertha. Tension will arise between Lagertha, Kalf and Ragnar that is for sure maybe Bjorn place is there to have the old family finally back together. 

The dead play of Ragnar in season 3 and the people who told them their deepest secrets are in trouble. He heard them when he was inside the coffin. What we know is that the relationships will never be the same. The confessions by Floki, Rollo and Lagertha will take his toll is an advantage Ragnar.  

Below the Vikings music played live for the International TV series Gala. Got this from Clive Standen's Twitter. To get in the mood for the new season.

Floki as Loki through the seasons

http://www.history.com/shows/vikings/pictures/season-3-episode-7-paris/vikings_s3e7_gallery_2

Hail Vikings,

Today I want to compare Floki with Loki through the seasons of Vikings.

In the first season, we got our first introduction to Floki in the woods. He hears trees talk to know which one he needs to build a special longboat for Ragnar. Floki builds this longboat on his own island where no one from the earl can find out he is building it.

There is a story where Loki did not build a longboat himself, but the story looks like what the perfect Longboat made of. In The creation of Thor´s Hammer. We find out that dwarves build Loki a ship. That ship has the same building experience what we see with Floki´s longboat.

We also see Floki as healer together with his wife Helga to heal Ragnar from the wounds that almost killed Ragnar. In later seasons, we find out he knows more about herbs and the rest of nature that could help him save or could fake the dead of someone's live. He also hides Ragnar in his house for a while. 

Loki in Skrymsli and the peasant child tells us there was a peasant child who gambled away by his dad. The story is about hiding the child not be found. That is what Floki does for Ragnar because the earl must not find out Ragnar is still alive.

In the second season, Floki changes side a couple of times. In favor of who he likes. He conflicted with himself and Ragnar. Ragnar change to the other belief which he drawn into by Athelstan makes Floki the distrusted guy in a way. At the end of season two, we see him more and more conflicted he only believes that the gods of his religion is the one and only gods that exist. In the finale of that season, he tricks Jarl Borg and King Horik in his downfall. By protecting Helga and the newborn child, he pushes everyone away. 

If we take Loki´s story The kidnapping of Idun we see an almost similarity to the blood eagle we see Ragnar doing at Jarl Borg.  

In season three, we see a lot of things happening in Floki´s live. He kills Athelstan out of jealousy. He shapes shift into a dog to avoid Rollo. He is continuously in conflict by the gods and feel if the gods betrayed him.

Loki likes to shape shift a lot into different things, people or animal. Out of jealousy, he kills Baldur in the story The dead of Baldur. Is Athelstan Baldur In Floki's story? After that he will be bound in the story Loki´s bounding.

That brings us to this seasons, four expectations about Floki. When I saw the trailer and saw him in chains and after that in the cave screaming. I was immediately convinced it had to do with the bounding of Loki. 

The only thing I can´t figure out yet is that the suggestion in the interview with Kevin Durand who played Harbard / Odin. What kind of role he will be playing in this bounding. Or is this just to get me on the wrong foot again. The only thing I can think of is will Harbard / Odin take part in the bound of Floki? Or is it something else he is coming for Ragnar perhaps if he dies or is he going to help Ragnar get Floki / Loki bound? Is Floki totally going to lose his religion and is this why Harbard / Odin will come? We see Helga and Floki in the cave together. Will they be back together or is Helga Sigyn in the Loki / Floki story.

Faith, Love, Loyalty and Betrayal

History Channel

Hail Vikings,

I wanted to talk to you about a lot of things hidden inside the trailer.

Some things I didn´t discover before. I started off with watching the trailer a couple of times, then I take a look at the text in the beginning. To find more and more hidden secrets.

Betrayal

Did I really see Richard Armitage in that trailer? I do think so I don't know who he will be playing, but I know it was the one who is telling us about Rollo's betray on Ragnar. Will he betray Ragnar for real I don’t know they don’t show it to us in the trailer everything is possible?

Is Ragnar going to the betrayal on Kwindreth and what will go to happen if she finds out? How will this develop if there is a new woman on her way to Kattegat? What will she do if she finds out about betrayal? We know what she did to her own brother and uncle.

How about Ragnar and Aslaug? If Ragnar will hear from anyone what she did with the priest in Kattegat? Will there be love between them again.

Lagertha and Kalf were getting close at the end of the season will it hold knowing Ragnar knows how she really feels about him. Will she betray Kalf the way he did to her? I would love to see that happen.

Faith

In the trailer, we see also what seems to me the younger Athelstan as god figure but it could also be that he appears in Ragnar dreams, King Eckbert, or in Judith’s. It could also mean that Judith’s son Alfred is grown into a handsome young men.

Floki locked in a cave the chains are like Jesus on the cross is it to convert Floki or to put Floki ashamed. What would be the reason behind it only time will tell. Will Floki turn into another faith? I think he will stay truth to the gods.

Is Rollo going baptized again? He is going to get married. What will this mean for him? When baptized will he see it as fun like the first time or will he this time take it seriously? How will it go between him and Gisla I think it is just a matter of time.

Love

The love between Ragnar and his dead soul mate Athelstan will it survive? What does it mean for Alfred? Will the love continue between them or is Ragnar going to protect him from King Eckbert. Will Ragnar even find out there is a mini Athelstan born. What does it mean for Ragnar as Alfred appears?

How deep will the love from Ragnar be to another child Magnus (Barefoot) the one he did make with Kwindreth. Is there still love between Kwindreth and Ragnar?

Ragnar told Floki he loved him but because of him killing Athelstan. It leaves him no choice to judge him.

At the end of the trailer, we see Helga and Floki together do that mean that we have a couple who is also a loving couple in the mythology of Loki. I will come back to that later on.

Brother love is it possible in betrayal? I do think so. They love each other but will it concur another betrayal if it is a betrayal anyway. Should Ragnar not be happy for Rollo. Rollo who’s live just starts to get something in common with Ragnar’s.

Could there be love between Gisla and Rollo? I wonder and think it won’t work. If you watch the trailer I would say they have a love-hate relationship just like he has with his brother.

Vikings season 3 'Born Again' part 2 Spoiler Alert

http://www.history.com/shows/vikings/pictures/season-3-episode-6-born-again/vikings_s3e6_gallery_5

Hail Vikings,

After watching episode 6 again I  came trough so much new information that I am writing a part 2

The old men from the settlement who came to Ragnar by Floki lost a child and watched him die in the cold of ice and water. Ragnar knows the feeling after what happened when the Wanderer came around and did this to his own children. 

We have 2 new-born babies. One in Wessex and one in Kattegat. Porunn gives birth to  a girl called Siggy  after the died Siggy who saved Ragnar children. In Wessex the child is born from Athelstan and Judith get a boy Alfred that will be Baptized. King Eckbert thinks the child will be special because he sees Athelstan as a holy men. There will be a Baptism for Alfred but there is also a ritual with water that Bjorn does for the Gods with Siggy.

After Bjorn names his child Siggy, Aslaug gets nightmares and see her children drown together with Siggy. This reverse to the old men again but also to her feeling of guilt. I do think she has seen the drowning and the saving of her children. I think she also has it because she wouldn´t have left the children alone in the first place. Ragnar tells Aslaug to never leaves his children unattended.   

In the scene where Judith gets punished for what she did with Athelstan, King Eckbert decide to humiliate both Judith´s ear for humiliation of Aethelwolf. King Eckbert tells Aethelwolf that Athelstan is a men of god. Eckbert connects Athelstan with Jesus because Athelstan crucified and resurrection from Jesus that is what happened to Athelstan. Eckbert also talks about Judith being the virgin mother Mary was and then the role of Athelstan would be god, an angel or Joseph.

After this Athelstan wakes up after the blow of the light. The light is god. He is lying on the floor in the place Jesus has on the cross. When he got up he tells `I was dead but I am reborn`. From Christianity we go to the Gods of the Vikings. Floki gets a sign while he made a figure Odin and it tells him blood need spelled. Floki gets into a flow of outrage in this outrage he hurt Helga but she knows like Floki knows that he doesn´t want to hurt her. She knows what will happen and she will keep it still.

Floki goes from his own boatyard and goes to Kattegat but he musn´t been seen by anyone. Because of the flow the music takes you and the people of Kattegat he is unseen in Kattegat but when Rollo cross his path we will see the trickster god Loki in Floki again. There are three possibilities here in this scene. Floki turns himself into a dog as shape shifter, second could be it was a distraction set up by Floki his son the wolf changed in a dog Fenrir or it could be the disguise of Floki in the story of Freyr and Byggvir where Loki disguised himself into a dog. The dog distracts Rollo from Floki. Floki could pass him without getting noticed although I do think Rollo and Ragnar knew about Floki´s plan. But there I am not sure. Rollo´s reaction is kind of strange when the dog is left. It seems it vanished into nothing.

Vikings season 3 'Scarred' with spoilers

http://www.history.com/shows/vikings/pictures/season-3-episode-4-scarred/vikings_s3e4_1

This was the episode we where waiting for. A main character got killed in this episode. The speculations where high and never could we imagine what was going to happen. We all got it wrong but there is still 6 episodes to come so who knows what will happen (dead, treason, torture) next it is not yet the end of this season. Next week we are half way trough the season with a funeral coming up. With that said I will begin to say what a twist and turning is coming up this episode.

We start off in Kattegat with Aslaug who is very tired because Ivar is crying a lot because he is in pain. Aslaug gives up and want to go Siggy tried to stop here but Aslaug leave here children once again. She goes to the Wanderer. While she is away Siggy want to regain power or she want to have the memory back when she was wife of an earl.

The Wanderer tells us another myth who could be identified with Odin the Allfather. The myth he was telling is about Olaf his son High duke at that moment but will be king when he meets Odin in the myths. http://www.hwlongfellow.org/poems_poem.php?pid=2027 

A strange thing happens between Aethelwolf, Rollo and Floki. Rollo and Aethelwolf speak of friendship. Rollo needs to tell Floki why this is so important and here we see a Rollo who start his political career. We saw a little last episode of his politics but now we see more politics of him.

If we take Floki in this conversation he gives the blame to the baptism of Rollo who also makes him a christian. Floki is a men of gods.  He talks to them and they are angry. After a while Rollo talks about this conversation with Ragnar. Ragnar wants to challenge the gods. Rollo made up his mind and go to search for Floki to tell him that he will never let it come to that, another political decision he makes.

Lets talk about King Eckbert and his plan to rule Wessex, Mercia and I think he will rule Northumbria as well in time. He wasn´t prepared that Lagertha would go back and didn´t fall for his plan to let her stay. Athelstan is also one of the persons who will go back with Ragnar. King Eckbert told him that this is the wrong decision. Athelstan thinks he is wise to leave because he want to give Princess Judith the space to stay with Eathelwolf. I think in the end this is a wrong decision. To be continued.

The King Eckbert and Ragnar scene is a fun to watch I like the way they get a long with each other. They both love politics. they both love the same women, they know each other too well.

When Siggy goes after the two sons of Ragnar on the ice to save them once again (King Horik) it becomes her dead. I think she didn't know what the Wanderer was capable off. She distrusted him and went to the seer last episode and he couldn't do a thing for her.

In another piece of this episode we see that the Wanderer is there for people who suffer. He sees Aslaug, Ivar and Siggy suffer. So the Wanderer (Odin) told Helga and Aslaug that Siggy is in Valhalla. Most blogs I read where talking about that Siggy needed to go to Hellheim. I will stay with my decision that the Wanderer Odin in person took the decision to let her into Valhalla. Odin is the one who decide where the died would go.

And then the surprises of this episode Princess Kwindreth become a queen herself by poisoning her own brother. Also we have a return surprise from two characters. Erlundor son of King Horik is back with his wife Torvi the ex-wife of Jarl Borg who is dead due to the Blood Eagle and they had a child of Jarl Borg with them. Born after the dead of Jarl Borg. This is the backup for his own crowned Earl Kalf to get rid off the Lothbroks.

Extended version Vikings Trailer season 3

All I have to say is that I love this trailer so much.

I had to see it several times to see what is going on.

I am way too excited, I want to see this season 3 so bad and I need to wait longer than you guys. I cannot wait for this.

How about the music I love the music of this trailer it tells us that this is a different time a darker one then before.

What we see is the battle between father and Son. The Son who want to do something else than where his father wish for. The battle between feelings and wisdom. strategy, power play and betrayal. A seer who see the future. Lagertha who is asking about her dead.

What we see in this piece of the trailer is very important. It tells us a lot of what will be happening. A couple of phrases I would like to take out of this meeting between the seer and Lagertha.

About the mythology use in this trailer. There is more mythology coming your way. If we look closer to the phrases said in the trailer we found out that there going to mix greek mythology with Nordic mythology. I will get a few phrases out. The marble city is that Rome, the Taj Mahal or Greece we are talking about? If we take Greece it is Athens or about the Greek goddess Athena. If we talk about Rome it where the buildings of that time.

• The first phrase is I see a harvest with Blood this could go with the story of Ivar the boneless and tells us about The Vengeance for more information see http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-vengeance-of-ivarr-the-boneless-4002654/?no-ist
• The second one is city of marble This could be either Rome or Athens but also the Taj Mahal associated with this city of marble. If it is Athens it will be a mixture of Nordic and Greece Mythology. It is about Athena.
• The third is about burning brawling ocean and that is a funeral of that time. We know already that someone is going to die. 

We see Floki embodied more and more as Loki. How do you know you might wonder.

• Eckbert in the trailer tells us about truly April (Loki 's favourite day is april fools day)
• If we see Ragnar hurt by the spear thrown by someone unknown for this moment (If Floki made this spear it has to do with Baldr and Loki mythology) Is this why Floki is holding a crown (is Floki seeking for power?)
• We attack Paris, Tricks are worse (Trickster Loki)
• Floki and the trees (blood brothers Odin/Loki or both made from Yggdrasil) Or is he trying to trap or save someone with the trees
• Floki tells Ragnar how many must die for the Christian he is not amused with Athelstan

Is Loki bound in human from Floki?

Will they give answers to the questions

• Who is going to leave Ragnar?
• Who is going to Walhalla or heaven is someone going to die and at the end will this be Ragnar or Lagertha who is going to ask it to The seer? Or someone else.
• Why is Ragnar that angry with Helga?

This trailer also tell there are more confusing things. If you saw both trailers the one from comic con and the one we see now there is a lot of difference. Some of it is the same but every new character is already introduced except for one the daughter of the France King.

Set the dates in your agenda Vikings season 2 DVD/Blu Ray will come sailing near you

http://shop.history.com/detail.php?p=651354&SESSID=7fd52782c928fb95d02691a038bdd68a&v=history

Hail Vikingfans

After the success of Vikings season 1 and the DVD/Blu Ray of the series. In March we saw the new season opening of Vikings season 2. Today I found out that the DVD and Blu Ray from season 2 will come out on 7 October 2014 in the USA in Europe this will be 3 November 2014.

Vikings season 1 recap

We see Ragnar and his family brother Rollo, wife Lagertha and his kids Bjorn and Gyda on the farm. We meet Floki the boat builder and his girlfriend Helga. The madly powered Earl Haraldson who has one thing he would like most killing Ragnar because he has different ideas on sailing and navigating his lovely wife Siggy. After they raid they come back with a monk called Athelstan. When Earl Haraldson decided that he want to kill Ragnar he tricked Ragnar and badly wound him to dead. Ragnar finds out Rollo at the earl who tortured him to tell the hiddingplace of Ragnar, Ragnar wants a dual from men to men. After a duel with Earl Haraldson Ragnar became earl and started to live in Kattegat he decided to go to raid again. Lagertha get a miscarriage. In the first series Gyda died due to the plague.

There are some extra footage on the DVD/Blu Ray behind the scenes.

Viking season 2 recap

We will see the game between characters with words and without. Raiding started to get better. Great battle scene to start with. A marriage and lot of tricks of illusions. Wrong ideas and wrong explanations all to get us on the wrong foot about a few roles. Did we know how Floki would trick us. The outcome is great and surprisingly different from we thought it would be.

With season 3 date to come soon it will be in March I think. We can’t wait for the next season. While waiting for this we are able to see, catch up on, and not have to miss them because they are on DVD/Blu Ray with season 2.

What is the (ex) Viking cast doing now?

Which Vikings Character will be dead halfway in the series just an beforehand conclusion based on what you see?

indecisivespice

During the panel of Comic-Con it was announced that we will lose a beloved character in the serie Vikings. There were two of the main characters not at the panel this year.

Floki played by Gustaf Skarsgård and Athelstan played by George Blagden. If you watch the trailer you don’t find a direct answer.

If you look further there might be an answer to that into the trailer. In the trailer is less Athelstan and less Floki but Floki is there at the end. A sign that Athelstan will die?

On the other hand the seer tells us about “stones and bones, a river two shores, three sides” etc. If you take Floki who is a trickster and named after the trickster god Loki. There is a story in Loki’s history with a couple of things in it who reference to what the seer says.

When Loki was in his darker sinister form he insulted the gods and fled. He made a house with three or four doors so when the gods went out looking for him he could escape through the doors. (three sides) Loki’s children Vali turned into a wolf and Narfi was killed by Vali this was necessary for bones to bound Loki onto a rock (stones and bones). This would mean that Floki would be the one who is going to die or at least bound.(1)

Who dies we will know when we see the season but I will tell you in either way I wouldn’t like the idea of killing Floki nor Athelstan but as Clive said in the panel “everybody will die in the series some day because it is part of the history”. We know that but we love the characters so much that we are forced to believe that they couldn’t die at all.

There is a king who is going to die does that count as a beloved character maybe Eckbert? Or are we trapped in the idea of those getting killed and will it be Ragnar? The trailer also show us that Lagertha and Eckbert are going to bond? Would that means jelousy or will she marries Ragnar again?

What we do know for sure is that Rollo played by Clive Standen will be there in a fourth season if they keep track of the history of Rollo. “The raiding on Paris will continue if season 4 will be a go”says Michael Hirst.

Viking Panel and sneak peak season 3

The panel of Vikings did tell us

We are off to Paris, half way one of the main characters will die, there will be raids to other countries and yet again there will be bigger conflicts between characters.

The Paris attacks will continue if there is going to be a season 4 that is announced in the panel. Everyone thought at that moment season 4 was definitely a go, but they didn't hear it right. Everybody on twitter cheered that moment.

Also the rumours started who would be dead during the season. The trailer didn't give that information away. I do have a kind of opinion about this after seeing the trailer. I am not going to rumour about that.

"Bjorn will grow older, bigger and stronger". Alexander Ludwig who plays Bjorn told that.

The teaser trailer looks great and tells us a  lot about the storyline of different characters. It tells us a strategy and what the seer sees for someone it is not clear who or what was asked. it gives you an idea of what it will be in season 3 instead of giving big storylines away.  Go and see the teaser trailer for yourself.
