Perhaps. And yet while Thor 1 Loki's actions were reprehensible, they were understandable. Avenger's Loki was under mindcontrol (If the fan theories are right) and that excuses quite a bit.

Actually, yes. In the comics, Adamantium beats virtually anything.
In Thor 2, taking Odin's place is a bit less understandable than the rest of his actions.

That's Asgardian for Second Base. Then there's pillaging and burning.
I really have no idea what to make of that. Either he did something to Odin, or Odin was indisposed and he was taking the chance to make Thor look like an ass when he wasn't there when Odin did show up, or he'd killed Odin and taken his place, or...something else?
Take your pick, that was an odd note to leave the movie on.
You have to admit, succeeding in gaining the throne with (presumably) no one the wiser was a pretty slick move, though.
Oh yeah, slicker than owl shit. I figure there has to be more to it than that since Loki craves recognition at least as much as power.
Also, I don't think he was mind controlled in The Avengers as @RocjawCypher mentioned some people believe, but I do figure that having fallen through that abyss of whateverthehell plus whatever Thanos and his guys did to/with him did have Loki in a very altered mental state.
I don't really think that Loki would have invaded Earth, given the choice, since he wanted power in Asgard and Thor had only spent a weekend on Earth before that point so the only reason Loki would consider it a big thing for Thor is if Thanos and crew had put that brainbug there.

Taylor: "Vidi, vici, veni." *lights cigarette*
Thor doesn't want the throne, Frigga is dead, and Odin is indisposed. Who else within the royal family could take charge?

If Loki decided to troll Taylor she'd probably just go "I'm so fucking sick of this shit." and bring out the spiders that would freak out the Allfather and sic them on every single Loki-like thing there. If its invisible, I'm sure she'll find it by the inability to fly bugs through that area of air. More than one of them? Sic giant spiders on them all.
Loki will soon learn that when Skitter tells you to shut up and get to the point, you apologize. Even if you are a walking apocalypse in the form of a god.

Ask not what Taylor can learn from Loki, but what Loki can learn from Taylor. And a multi-dimensional connection to a cast off organ of an incredibly advanced species that's capable of mind control on a variety of levels.
Oh thank god! Pun not intended...
Hulk/Taylor is a go! All the misunderstood heroes deserve someone to look after them, and they compliment the abilities of each other quite nicely.
Also, that armor? Considering what she got up to in homemade spidersilk, and combined with the other benefits she'll be getting, that's just awesome! Though I'm less a fan of the boob plate...

In Avengers? Mind controlled? No, having the nice big gun of Thanos at his neck? Oh, yes. He couldn't risk pissing big and purple off, he had to go through with the invasion. Which he did, as poorly as possible.
And, by faking his own death, now Thanos thinks he's dead and won't come after him, leaving him free to make a play for the stones himself now that he has an idea.
As for the time period, I'd actually say that this is likely in the same timeframe as the first Cap movie. Remember, there's only 'two' capes on the planet according to what we've been told. Cap, Stark, and Hulk make three.
Cap and Skull make two.
Taylor came to scalp nazis and play with spiders, and it's the middle of winter.

Meh, I'm not seeing it.
I can see Taylor/Ward, but I can also see her murdering him horribly after the shit goes down so iunno.
So... did anyone else notice that the Queen Administrator, despite being non-sapient, is afraid of Odin? Or was that just me?

Fury: And remember not to piss off Banner.
Taylor: Why..?
Natasha: Big green rage monster.
Taylor: *points at picture of hulk*
Fury: Yes. Now don't annoy him.
*later*
Fury: WHAT DID I TELL YOU, SPECIFICALLY, NOT TO DO?
Taylor: UUrurughghghg sorry too busy drooling over beefcake to answer
Natasha: *shrugs* She's got a point, sir.
Fury: *facepalm* Why couldn't she just be one of the Thor groupies
Thor: *smashes through the wall excitedly* I HAVETH GROUPIES?!

All joking aside, the most important ship I can see is an adoptive-sister-ship with Skye. The two are so alike it's ridiculous, and Taylor might appreciate the irony of being to someone else what early-canon Lisa was to her.
By the way, Thor doesn't speak anywhere near as Shakespearean as his comic counterpart(s). If @Heather Sinclair is using the MCU, he doesn't have to worry about that.
I hate Skitter wankers. There are so goddamn many of them and every one is irritating as fuck.
And while she's calling those spiders, Loki appears behind her and slits her throat. Game, set, match.

"And then Taylor became High Queen of the Nine Realms..."
Meh. She's welcome to it. I don't know if anyone noticed, but the Nine Realms kind of suck. Earth isn't bad, Asgard is pretty cool, but the rest of the Nine Realms look like shitholes.

"What! Earth is poking the infinity stone of space! This means War!"
"Against who sir?"
"Everybody!"
"Wont Odin get mad and send his armies?"
"Fuck him! Hes so weak he let his sons just walk into Joutunheim and wreck the place!"
"But what about the Bifrost?"
"They wrecked that too! Theres nothing he can do to mess with us now the pompus prick!"

Ignorant but learning.
That you make some friends, become a warlord, end up saving the world and probably have a bunch of cults founded based on worshipping you? Not sure that will make Loki rethink the idea.
To be fair they are accurately representing canon Skitter's abilities. She had plot armor so think not even Thor's hammer would leave a dent.
That worked out pretty well for them, didn't it?
And goddamn Svartalfheim really looked like ashy shit, didn't it? The other Realms are likely better than that, but after a god look at Vanaheim, I wouldn't expect much.
Is Niflheim a thing in the MCU? 'Cause that place is the very definition of shitty world. Muspelheim likely sucks balls too...
Oooh! Is the Mimir's Well a thing in the MCU? I wonder If Taylor would be willing to make a sacrifice to it for power like Odin did? She might have the grit to survive hanging for nine days on Yggdrasil too...
I thought she was just surprised at the ridiculousness of the situation: being reconnected to her host, where she was, Taylor's slightly different attitude. But that makes sense, too.
