First episode is online at Disney plus. I've only watched the first 5 minutes, but Storm and Cyclops are already more fun than they were in all 3 of the first movies combined.
I wonder if they will redo this episode from the original. Easily the best episode they made:BadMoonRisin said:
Second episode was incredible. Really loved Magneto.rhutton125 said:
So far so good. It feels like old times!
Not surprised there would be some modifications from the 90's era depictions, when Jim Lee had turned every female character into:BadMoonRisin said:
This happened in the 90s cartoon?? I may have to go find these. Never saw the original.DustysLineup said:Not surprised there would be some modifications from the 90's era depictions, when Jim Lee had turned every female character into:BadMoonRisin said:
I'm 50. Never heard of Tranzor Z and I watched alot of that stuff back then.DustysLineup said:
Are you joking, or much much younger than me. Those gifs are from old Tranzor Z cartoons. Jim Lee's drawings of female characters in the 90's X-Men comics just always made me think of the rocket boobie robots of Tranzor.

nothing like 30 comic book issues all crammed into 25 minutes of cartooning.
I don't disagree that it would be cool to draw these out to build the story. Having sad that, I do disagree that this episode told the story badly. I thought it was awesome.C@LAg said:
said it before, saying it again., they need to stop cramming so much story, badly, into 30 minutes.
Could be AMAZING if they spent a whole season adapting a long story arc instead of doing a story arc per episode.
This week is E for Extinction storyline
1. Nice Uatu the Watcher cameo. Indicator that the **** is about to hit the fan.
2. I find it hysterical that the character on Genosha all hang around in their formal superhero costumes all day instead of just wearing normal clothes. (yeah, I know it was so we could readily spot all the cameos)
but this is a problem that has been in the comics for almost a decade now. The X-Men used to be depicted in regular clothes all the time - when relaxing in the mansion, recreating outdoors, etc.
Now it is hero outfits. 24x7, sadly a forced and artificial brand marketing by Marvel/Disney.
3. Val Cooper is Mystique.
4. I hope they are not co-opting the Scott/Emma storyline with a Scott/Madelyn one.

you seem to be wanting an intense amount out of a cartoon based on a totally ridiculous cartoon from 27 years ago.C@LAg said:this is america. where you have the right to be wrong.MASAXET said:

It was just a point of discussion, man. I didn't mean to be rude. What is the meme spam I'm posting? I don't know what that means.C@LAg said:The Porkchop Express said:you seem to be wanting an intense amount out of a cartoon based on a totally ridiculous cartoon from 27 years ago.C@LAg said:this is america. where you have the right to be wrong.MASAXET said:

and yet you seem to be satisfied with the banal pablum that Lucas/Disney puts out all the time. I prefer more. Even from franchises
People are allowed to have different opinions than you, you know.
lighten up francis. it was a joke response.
you do not seee me *****ing about alll the meme spam you post in the various franchise threads.
Back when Cyclops was awesome (and now is again)Quad Dog said:
I loved the call back to the old X-Men arcade game in this most recent episode. That thing took so many of my quarter.
Agree. Of course it'd be cool if the show was something different and more narrative-based. But let's not forget what it is at it's core: a Saturday morning cartoon.The Porkchop Express said:you seem to be wanting an intense amount out of a cartoon based on a totally ridiculous cartoon from 27 years ago.C@LAg said:this is america. where you have the right to be wrong.MASAXET said:

I think we're about to see Cyclops go full "by any means necessary" for a bit.The Porkchop Express said:Back when Cyclops was awesome (and now is again)Quad Dog said:

Hopefully we can all agree that Colossus was the best character in that game
