Misacek01 wrote: I'd also add a bit of my own: There's a rather mysterious line (which doesn't seem to serve much purpose given its prominence in the film) in Thor 1 that goes: ''"[Loki]: You have great power, Heimdall. Did Odin ever fear you? [Heimdall]: No. [Loki]: And why is that? [Heimdall]: Because he is my King. And I'm sworn to obey him." ''This suggests that Heimdall's power rivals even Odin's, and that the only reason Odin doesn't consider Heimdall a threat to his dominion is that Heimdall is not interested in such. It might just be the gratuitous setting-up of Heimdall as badass (although he does precious little with it in the first film, and not much more in the second), but it might've also been a set-up of an eventual revelation that Heimdall has an Infinity Gem. This i agree with plus the orange/amber colors that are often shown on him either on his armour/and eyes, not to mention the casting of idris elba in a role of an asgardian senrty was overplay by marvel Unless it was setting up this the whole time But my main theory still is that Hőfund heimdalls sword has the stone embedded into it, by the dwarf king of nidavellir
