in retrospect the old redtext was a little over the top, I think I was in a bad mood that day. it appears you've learned your lesson about slagging our gods and masters at beamdog but I'm still going to leave this av up because i think its funny

god bless
I've already re-watched various cartoons I grew up with. Some held up surprisingly well. Others... not so much.
Re-watch highlights for me included Captain Future (the German version - though this is notably older than the 90s), Batman: The Animated Series, Gargoyles and Reboot.
Parts may have been uneven but all of them had a lot of entertainment value.

X-Men... probably doesn't hold up quite so well as the above. The voice work is often quite, uh, special, with the entire world being made of ham. But at both its best and at its worst it's rather entertaining, it's only when it's mediocre where it suffers the sin of just being boring.

Most of the shows I'd recommend if you want to hurt yourself are more from the late 80s and I've re-watched everything I personally would dare to already, so I'll just wish you good luck with your X-Men adventure.

Some things to keep in mind for your X-Men marathon:

- Cyclops is the most massive square and phenomenally useless
- Jean Grey exists to faint from exhaustion from using her powers or pretty much anything really
- Gambit is really sketchy at all times
- Storm will not say anything without it being a pronouncement of immense importance. I believe her powers require her to yell, or they won't work.
- Xavier is not very good at his job
- Wolverine really, really wishes he could use grown-up swears
- Beast is Smart, which is why he reads books and quotes things, like smart people do.
- Rogue is actually great, except she's never around when you need her, or forgets her powers half the time she actually is.
- Jubilee was supposed to be audience stand-in. They do pretty much nothing with her.
- So many Liefeld-era characters, cameos and designs! Woo!
