The producers and writers are keeping it close to the vest about Odin now that Loki took over Asgard disguised as him. It's been debated that Loki imprisoned him or killed him to take the throne. I still vote he killed Odin because of the daddy issues, which intensified in Thor The Dark World, and for self-preservation:  by tipping off Kurse about the secret passageway to the palace Loki indirectly caused Frigga's death. (He certainly wouldn't have been sorry if his snitching led to Odin's and/or Thor's end.) With the queen no longer around to shield Loki for his crimes there's nothing to stop Odin to re-instate Loki's original execution order, especially if Odin learned of Loki's big mouth. I think the alternate argument is pushed by Loki fans because regicide is an irredeemable act (in this case) and the only way to deal with it is Loki's permanent end.

Thoughts?
