    The thing about Scott/Cyclops is that force beams from his eyes are being constantly generated, he can't shut off his power. So whenever his eyes are open, he'd be blasting whatever he's looking at. However there is a special substance (ruby quartz) that neutrailizes his optic beams. That's why he wears a visor or special glasses at all times.

      He's always been kind of a boring character. The "straight man", serious, business-like. It's not his fault, he's just got to be the no-nonsense, field team leader. If and when they ever bring him into the MCU, they should write him some scenes where his personality can really shine. His powers are fairly limited in flexibility. All he can do is shoot very powerful blasts from his eyes. Great as a destructive weapon, but not much use for anything else. Unlike most of the other X-Men: Storm can manipulate weather in many different ways, use the wind to fly, hit people with lightning; Wolverine has his claws, regeneration, and heightened senses; Iceman can encase people in ice, make structures out of ice, use ice to slide along the ground really fast; etc.

    An interesting distinction between the X-Men and the MCU is that almost everyone in the MCU *gains* their powers in some fashion. Captain America was the result of super soldier experimentation, the Hulk accidentally poisoned himself with gamma radiation, Wanda volunteered to be experimented on by Hydra, and so on. In the X-Men the characters are all born with their powers, whether they like them or not. A great bit of writing is that one of the most "put together" characters, Scott/Cyclops, has almost no control over his power and is a force of massive destruction unless he has his visor. Because of this characteristic, the heroes and villains in the X-Men are more human and normal; some of them choose their paths and some of them have no choice.
    Also, here's a fun little "blooper" from the original movie:

    FUN fact after the x men were created in 1963 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby they gained huge popularity in the black and gay LGBTQ community. Living in a society were they were mistreated and discriminated against black and gay comic book readers saw themselves in the characters through the civil rights and gay rights movement’s.
    Seeing what the comic did for the black and gay community the creators of the comics adapted the characters to spread awareness through subtext and show people who weren’t from the minorities what it was like being marginalised.
    Marvels first major openly gay character North Star is an x man and and is one half of the first same sex marriage depicted in marvel comics. Professor x and magneto also represent the fight for the Silvio rights movement with Professor X and his vision of harmonious human-mutant coexistence standing in for Dr. Martin Luther King, while Magneto's rigid attitude toward the defence of mutant kind reflected the philosophy of Malcolm X.
    Through out the films you’ll see how marvel carried on this tradition with hints and gay coded dialogue through the x mens fight for freedom and equality being a metaphor for what it is like as part of the LGBT community and being gay.

      It was about both movements, after the civil rights movement in 1954 and the gay liberation movement starting in the 1960s and lasting till the 1980s along with stone wall of 1969 the creators of the comics decided to adapt the x men to represent marginalised people over all, but more specifically gay and black people.
      Over time the X-men have become more representative of gay and LGBT rights though, seeing what the characters did for people of the community and how much the creators could subtly correlate being a mutant to being gay specifically.
      The mutants having to hide there identity to not scare humans, the humans looking for a cure for being a mutant, the mutants powers being genetic are all metaphors for social issues the creators chose to put in the comics to represent the struggles of the gay community. As he said the first major openly gay character is an x-man and is the first gay marriage in marvel comics.
      It’s also why the creators of the movies Cary on what they did and are doing in the comics because LGBT issues and rights are what the x-men as a whole mainly represent now, Bobby parents not knowing he’s a mutant is a metaphor for being gay, him having to tell them in x-men 2 and his mothers response saying have you tried not being a mutant is a metaphor for coming out, rogue thinking she needs the cure and humans wanting a cure for mutants is a metaphor for conversion therapy and people thinking you can cure being gay and so on and so on, so the x men represent both but not long after as the comics progressed the x-men mainly became a metaphor for what its like for the gay and LGBT community and the issues they face.

    When I tell you X-Men was my JAM as a kid...
    My uncle had stacks of long boxes, FULL of X-men comics, and every summer I'd find a quiet spot in my grandma's house and just read all day. I watched the cartoons religiously (90s baby so I was lucky enough to be around for both the OG animated series and X-men Evolution).
    These live-action movies started coming out when I was 10. I remember being a little underwhelmed by it, even back then, because even though they handle the central concept pretty well, there's SO MUCH they don't show... The X-men franchise's greatest strength is in its characters and their relationships with each other; you read the comics and you're there for the actions/missions, sure, but you're there for the soap opera drama and emotional beats in-between their adventures just as much.
    While I think X2 comes the closest to feeling like its source material, the "Singerverse" never quite _gets_ that, imo, but it deserves the fans it has. It helped get the superhero movie genre on its feet and its always cool to look back on to see where it all started. Without them, we never would've gotten Iron Man or any of the MCU. I'm hopeful that if someone with passion for the franchise can get behind the director's chair, the MCU could revitalize it and do things right. At this point, its one of the only properties it has that could bring the MCU back to its former glory...

      Adamantium is stronger, but vibranium has the special property of completely cancelling all vibrations when it hits things or things hit it, which is what makes it strong (bullets that hit it lose all kinetic force, not necessarily because the metal is particularly strong). That's how Cap's shield is able to ricochet like it does, it doesn't lose energy when striking objects.

    If you want to see "Gandolf" in a villian role watch him in Apt Pupil. It's a thriller about a high schooler that finds out his neighbor is a Natzi war criminal. The cop who finds the injured security guard( Mystique) is the guy who wrote the movie. Magneto can control magnetic fields which allows him to fly. He has no mind powers. In the 90's marvel comics sold the tv and movie rights to their most popular properties( X-Men, Spiderman and Fantastic Four). So when they started the MCU with Iron Man they couldn't use "mutants" in it. So in Age of Ultron, they could use Wanda but she couldn't be a "mutant". Which is why the Mind Stone was used to create her and Pietro. Fox was using Quicksilver in their movies so they let MCU use him in only 1 movie, but he had to die in it. Disney now owns Fox so the Mutants are slowly getting used and mentioned in the MCU.

She's also been in many other famous movies, including Almost Famous, Jane Eyre, and The Irishman.

    When this movie came out, long long before ANY ideas about the MCU happening, I got sooo pumped. I grew up reading X-Men comics and there were rumors even in the 90's about an X-Men movie being made, so when this came out I was sooo freakin excited. It was so awesome seeing it in the cinema. Absolutely loved it. :)
    To maybe help answer some stuff:
    Rogue ius played by Anna Paquin in this and she's been in a bunch of stuff. Probably most famous for the movie The Piano when she was much younger. You can look it up.
    20:17 - if you look at that scene again, Wolverine takes note of the broken tree. If a tree falls, it normally uproots itself, but this one was deliberately broken, so yeh I think Sabretooth knocked it down to setup the ambush.
    33:40 - So Magneto is tuned into the electromagnetic fields around the Earth, so he creates an electromagnetic field around himself to make himself "fly" - he creates a field and floats in his field. He can use the field to push himself around, which is how he flies.
    But yeh, so stoked you're watching X-Men movies now. I think my favourite is X-Men 2 which is hopefully next for you guys.

    A Wolverine is a part of the same taxonomic family as weasels and badgers, and are well known for their ferocity and strength disproportionate to their size. They also can be found mostly in the Northern US and Canada. That is why the character's name is Wolverine :P
    Yes, Scott (Cyclops) has to wear those special glasses all the time because his eyes are constantly emitting kinetic force beams, only being stopped by his eyelids or by the glasses, made of ruby quartz which reflect the energy harmlessly. The visor he wears on missions lets him focus the beams into a single optic blast, hence Cyclops.
    Rogue in the comics ended up fighting Ms. Marvel (the future Captain Marvel) and killed her via her power, which caused her to absorb ALL of her powers permanently, so she can now fly, has super strength, and is invulnerable. These films kind of did Rogue dirty in that this never happens and she stays as just a power vampire.
    Storm is one of the most powerful mutants alive, able to control the weather on a global scale when she really gets her dander up.
    Charles Xavier is known as Professor X, and is also extremely powerful. He and Magneto are, well, frenemies, because they used to work together to further mutant rights before Magneto took on his mutant supremacy bent. Magneto is something of an anti-villain, in that his goals are noble, but his methods are very questionable at best.

And the astonishing answer to how many Oscars Sir Ian McKellen has won is...zero; though he's been nominated twice. He was mainly a stage, TV and Shakespearean film actor until late in his career though so whilst his major film roles are huge in pop culture they don't represent a significant portion of his acting career.

    In the comics. Considering Peter's mutation. Him and Magneto once bump heads when he tried to hunt him/recruit him. He's pro human so he would be on Charles' side when the x-men have civil wars.
    Which is on a side note why he isn't worthy cause he would still not kill his enemies which is why unlike Peter, steve is a soldier like logan and were buds in the 40's or in the present.
    Some mutants mentioned or seen in one shot like the students he (Charles) talked to or every power mentioned when someone mentions about mutants being evil or how one's could be powerful start appearing in the second movie to X-men apocalypse
    (Clue) when kelly says she could rob a bank and she was in Charles teaching session running through the door

    Growing up and reading comics it was good to read things like X-Men, using art/science fiction to explore both how wrong prejudice is and to see someone who goes through changes and struggles to understand their bodies after such a change how to exist in a world they now see differently. Also to see how someone either lets that prejudice and hate change them for the worse or rise above and continue to make the right choices and do the heroic deeds.

    1:13-Stan Lee spent a lot of time coming up with popular catch-phrases like "Face Front", "'Nuff said", "Excelsior", and "Millenia". This film was before Disney bought Marvel, But it's box office success persuaded them there was big $$ to be made if they partnered up for the first Spider-Man movie. (Wolverine debuted in Incredible Hulk #181) 36:32-Yeah, Eric already had lots of hate, but what pushed him over the edge and turned him and Charles into frenemies is explained in "X-Men-First Class" 2011...Be warned the final scene is heartbreaking. Loved the dialouge between them in both movies..straight from the comics!! .

    I was very nervous when this movie was announced. It was 1999 and I heard that FOX was doing an Xmen movie??? How???? In the comics, the Xmen all had colorful costumes and I was fearful that they wouldn't take it seriously and it would be a campy piece of crap that would set back superhero movies 20 years. I had tears of joy watching this and the way they pulled it off, made it serious and gave me hope that future superhero movies would be in this more serious vein. A few years later we got SpiderMan, Daredevil, Hulk, Fantastic Four and Ghost Rider. Some good, some bad, but then Marvel got their sh^t together and created a studio in 2006 and made Iron Man and Incredible Hulk in 2008. The rest would be history.
    Now that you have watched all 3 Xmen movies (Patreon), everything else will start to be fleshed out a little more for you about the Marvel characters. In 2018 Disney bought Fox so now Marvel has control over the Xmen and will recast and reboot the franchise in the near future. We haven't seen it yet so hopefully, you guys will get all caught up on EVERYTHING and we can all watch this unfold together when it happens.
    Bonus nugget: In the comics, Wanda loses her mind and whispers, "No More Mutants" and destroys the Xmen. Is this how they will reboot the Xmen into the MCU and kill the Fox universe Xmen off??? Who knows?

    Magneto can fly by creating a personal magnetic field around himself like a force field that he can control at will. It can ataches itself to Earth's own magnetic field as well making it possible for him to travel trought it's lines. He also has his costume made with metalic fiber mixed with the fabric. This force field like his powers are invisible to the human eye but in the comics the artist draw it like a purple eletric/magnetic type of energy to be more visually striking and for the reader to be able to understand when he's using it.

    The X-Men comics were born during the Civil Rights movement of the 60s and hs always drawn parallels to prejudice… on top of it, Magneto is Jewish and was in a concentration camp during WWII when his powers first manifested - so he takes the human vs mutant thing personally
    Early in the comics, Xavier was very MLK like and Magneto was very Malcom X like… and the comics always walked that fine line with its villains. They always had very understandable motivations

The guy that played Toad, Ray Park, was also the physical actor for Darth Maul(meaning he was in the make up/on screen and did the stunts) in Star Wars Episode 1. Also, the white stripe that appeared in Rogue's hair is actually the character's signature look in the comics.

    This movie was a lot of hype for us Marvel fans that had never had a successful "proper" superhero film. (I am not counting the Blade trilogy, I didn't even know it was Marvel when my my wife and I walked into that theater) DC had already had three decades of hit and miss movies with the Superman and the Batman series of films.
    My only real problem with this film from a comic book standpoint is at the grand finale when Wolverine saves Rogue by giving her his regeneration powers, why did the old injuries suddenly reappear? That isn't how healing works. One you're healed from an injury, that's it. So taking his healing factor away should just mean he won't heal from new injuries.
    As an example, if you decided to put out a campfire with a fire extinguisher and then you indeed do put it completely out, then I come take away your fire extinguisher, the campfire doesn't re-light itself. Still the movie was a total win and I realize they had to do something to *show* that she was absorbing his abilities and it was potentially dangerous to Logan.

    While I grew up reading all of Marvel and DC comics, X-Men was my favorite. I still remember when I was 10 years old (1996), and my Dad was reading the paper and he said "hey come look at this" and there was a small article about Fox making a live action X-Men movie. I lost my shit lol. So 4 years later this came out and I went with my Dad to the theaters to see it. At the time I was a LITTLE disappointed, it's not as dark and gritty as the comics can get, and they focused too much on Wolverine while everyone else is relegated to side characters, and it has that Pre-MCU "super hero movie will never be cool" vibe to it. But this movie really kick started the superhero movie craze (technically Blade came first in 1998, but this is the one that really turned heads), and I look back on it fondly now.

    Some very brief history FYI:
    Marvel had to sell franchise movie rights in the middle 90's to prevent their own bankruptcy. From those sales, FOX owned the movie rights to X-Men & Fantastic Four franchises. Sony had grabbed the Spider-Man movie franchise. Paramount bought Hulk & a few other Marvel franchises.
    Marvel Studios owned all their unbought other franchises for movies and had been developing their huge MCU Thanos story line since 1996. Disney bought Marvel in 2009 at a huge bargain since so much of the MCU Thanos story had already been fleshed out in pre-production. Disney's acquisition of FOX happened later - initiated in 2017 and finalized in 2019.

    Also the movies makes it seem like Wolverine is the main character in the comic which he often isn’t the sole protagonist . He does have his own comics but the X-Men comic is about everyone who’s important/leaders which he is. Some of the students they showed are Easter eggs for famous heros that you’ll see in the future movies. Storm is my favorite (random). They also changed a few of the hero’s backstories. Rouge started as a bad guy with the brotherhood then became a good guy. Stuff like that is changed.

  • @paulkondon
    @paulkondon 7 місяців тому

    My favorite X-Man is Cyclops. He has a great power, but needs the visor to control it. Because it's very limited in its use - blasting things - his real value to the group is as the leader. One of the great things about Marvel characters is that no one can do everything, and they work better as a group. And in that group, there needs to be someone to coordinate them, and know whose powers are best in which situation. He showcases that at the end, telling Storm to lift Logan, but knowing her wind isn't very precise, Jean needs to steady him. Logan goes up being great at close quarters and difficult to hurt, but Scott is there as the last resort to blast everything if all else fails. That's always the key puzzle to solve in every story, and the most powerful characters might not be the one who can get the job done. The same way that Black Widow and Hawkeye continue to prove their worth when there is Iron Man, Thor and the Hulk. And Cyclops is like the Captain America of the X-Man, keeping everyone organized and on mission. He can sometimes seem sullen and moody as a result, because he feels he has to live up to the expectations Charles placed on him. While Charles was comatose, Scott tells him something of this, where he will take care of the X-Men if needed - knowing full well he can't fill Charles' shoes.

    One of the best comic book movies ever, in my opinion because it is the best showcase of how the X-Men character’s personalities really are in the comic books. Edit: The only personality that wasn’t quite right in the movie is Rogue/Marie. Rogue is actually very independent and tough and she’s only really vulnerable with Wolverine and later on Gambit, her future husband, but that’s many, MANY comic book issues later. But man, do they carry on this very involved passionate relationship.
    A very cool Avengers related fact from this universe is that Magneto is Scarlett Witch’s father, so Quicksilver her brother is his son as well. Magneto had a LOT of affairs with both mutant and human women over the years, so he has quite a few kids wandering around in this universe.
    He is a Holocaust survivor and he lost his entire family in Auschwitz. The only reason Eric was spared was because the Nazis were fascinated by his mutant ability to manipulate any form of metal, and it is later on that Apocalypse, (an ancient bad ass villain you will meet in a later movie), enhances these powers to be able to tap into the very magnetosphere of the entire planet if the mood takes him. He has a daughter called Polaris who shares his powers, but I forget what else she can do.

    Rouge is from Meridian, MS. She's one of the few Southern Marvel characters. Played by Anna Paquin from True Blood and Scream 4 plus a lot more. The Mutants (there are numbers teams of them like the X-Men), Avengers, Fantastic Four, Spiderman and many more should be in the same universe. But back in the 80's Marvel got in big financial trouble and had to sell off the rights to many of their characters. So you wound up with all these movie studios owning rights to just some of the characters. However, Disney bought up all the competition. So now they are all going to be added to the MUC starting with Deadpool. Well technically Black Widow had a hidden mutant cameo with Ursa Major and one just openly cameoed in The Marvels with no explanation. But Deadpool 3 is where they really show up and may get some explanation. By the way don't assume you've seen Iceman before. He has an exact duplicate twin. The only way you can tell them apart is the credits or in real life if they are together one is three inches shorter. The other one stared in the SyFy series Killjoys. And also like the MCU this is not the 616 universe AKA the comic universe. So these movies introduce all the mutants out of order. The original X-Men were Jean, Cyclopes, Iceman plus Beast and Angel. Storm, Wolverine and more were introduced as the second team years later.
