    This show made me realize I don’t want an X-MEN movie…. Gimme an HBO budget sized series to properly let this ensemble soap opera breathe and showcase everyone’s powers.
    10/10 series. THANK YOU for all your coverage :)

      Are 10 episodes still good with all the story they're teasing? It looks really packed like there's:
      - the Gambit resurrection as Apocalypse's horseman
      - the fate of (feral) Wolverine without his adamantium
      - Scott and Jean meeting their future daughter and young Nathan (reversed Messiah Complex?)
      - the other half of the main cast stuck in ancient Egypt during Rise of Apocalypse
      - Forge/Bishop possibly forming the New Mutants era

    I'm glad Grace appreciates X2 too. X2 had the world, the rules and the characters established from the 1st one, which was also good. So X2 was "let's play" with what was established. A few new characters into the franchise with pivotal roles, the alliance with Magneto and his switch back, the human problem, the cruel Striker, played convincingly by Brian Cox, Pyro changing teams, Nightcrawler, Lady Deathstrike, etc. I felt like I was watching the 90s cartoon

      To be honest, I didn't really like how TAS handled Apocalypse. He seemed to be defeated so easily and just kinda gave up after being overpowered.
      Angel/Archangel story arc was also kinda botched because it felt rushed in TAS. Like Angel was a full-time X-men member in the comics and had actual ties and relationships with the team but in the show he was like a temporary guest cameo so it didn't feel as strong when he ended up betraying the X-men for Apocalypse.

    What really surprises me about the show is that each character had something to contribute. Many shows have a big cast but they don't know what to do with them. Not X-Men 97.

    What Scott said to Wolverine totally redefined my perspective for the character.The twist in that famous line turned him From a killing machine to a survivor. That´s good writing. Powerfull and concise.

    Im so happy that Logan was just a side charcter in this show because we've spent pretty much the last 24 years with him being the main focus in the movies that it felt so fresh for everyone to get their spotlight. Especially Rogue and Cyclops.

    I never understood why it was so obvious that X2 is “clearly” the best X-Men movie

    • @DylanMadd
      @DylanMadd Місяць тому +4

      It’s tough to insist now for sure. When it came out, it was one of the best comic movies ever made. By a lot. Gotta be a mix of nostalgia combined with a dose of annoyance at how watered down and confusing the Fox movies wound up.
      EDIT: Answer is the film was good natured, had a beginning and an end, and a clear sequelesque progression from the good vs bad mutants in the 1st movie. Again at the time, those elements were an achievement. It was BEFORE Spiderman 2 came out. So there really were no good comic book sequels at all on any level. Blade 2, Batman Returns and Superman 2 were the only things out there.

      X2 was released around the time when the X-men and the Brotherhood first really got to work with each other both in the films and comics. It synergized really well, and the heroes working with villains haven't really been as prominent in cinema at the time.

      @@DylanMadd i understand why back then, but even now people say it’s obviously the best x-men movie but i think it’s days of future past which has become one of the most underrated superhero films imo. i also think first class is becoming overrated just a lil

    • @phillconklin382

      Because it clearly is. It has the best intro in all of superhero movies with Nightcrawler. A great fucking story, iconic action scenes, and that twist with Jean at the end spectacular. But Days of Future Past is easily close second followed by Last Stand.

    Thank you so much Grace for this breakdown. This is so so so… AMAZING! The show literally was such a great show. The finale was the best. A lot of great things happening. I don’t know why they fired the producer do… It’s so crazy because this truly was amazing. So I hope they didn’t fire him because of some BS. I truly hope that they can keep the core of this season to for next season, so there’s not gonna be no confusion or silliness going on. It was just such a great X-Men 97 is everything

Talking about next season possible characters, speculation about storylines, a possible Spider-Man 99 (Maybe including his amazing *mutant* friends: Iceman and Firestar? 👀), what could happen to Beau deMayo considering the great reception, and what effect this series could have on the MCU's X-Men: Inspirations and takeaways? Thank you for the great work!

    Bastion took Cables arm which contains the time bube thing, which he presumably intergrated within himself when he gave himself an upgrade. He even did a speudo bodyslide while fighting Rogue. So for me he 100% just body slid who knows where and is not dead
