Well if they are gonna go a movie with the IG it seems like it would make the most sense if that actually was the infinity gauntlet, unless the collector is collecting the gems for him and going to present them to Thanos or he comes in and takes them by force. Other then that, seems he would have to go to Asgard and grab them or somehow trick Loki into getting them for him which I highly doubt Loki can be tricked.
Collector is collecting them thats for sure. If its for his own purpose of for Thanos , I dont know.
About Loki: remember in Avengers that "the other" told loki that if he ****s up, that there is no where in the universe he can hide from thanos? Also Loki is working for Thanos. thats why Thanos gives him the scepter in the first place. Even if Loki is not happy working for him or has his own motives , the fact remains he is working for Thanos non the less.
If Thanos decides to claim the "gem" that is on Asgard im pretty sure Loki would have to hand it over to Thanos, especially if Thanos already has a few gems in his collection or he would stomp his ass beat. Loki knows what Thanos is capable of. Or else he would not be working under him since Avengers.
