I will wait for the inevitable "Previously, on X-Men..." YouTube video that's just random out of context things from each episode that make the show seem like it's batshit insane.

redshirt posted:What's the odds of them doing the Dark Phoenix arc? Exactly 0 because they already did it in the 90s show that this one is a sequel to.

redshirt posted:Oh cool it's a sequel, I thought they were just remaking it. Yeah, that's the reason why it's called X-Men '97, because it picks up right where the old cartoon ended in 1997.

redshirt posted:I only read the comics in the 80s, I never saw the show. I was too cool in the 90's, man. I watched the 90s show on and off when it was airing, mainly because it came on at like 9AM on a Saturday and I have always even as a kid been a lazy poo poo who likes to sleep in, but it was one of those shows that didn't feel like it ever talked down to kids and confronted some real heavy poo poo in like nearly exact words. Hell, Professor X bends Magneto into submission once by forcing him to psychically relive the Holocaust. And while they don't show any overt Holocaust imagery, there's enough context clues there that even children are like "OH gently caress THAT'S THE HOLOCAUST, WHAT ARE YOU DOING CHARLES?!"

Internetjack posted:Wasn't there a storyline in the show or comic that had Wolverine and Jubilee together on their own? I remember that even as a kid I thought it had a mild pedo vibe to it. I remember the first X-Men movie by Bryan Singer paired up Wolverine and Rogue together in a Lone Wolf and Cub relationship for most of its arc. There wasn't anything creepy about that relationship though, which is ironic given that Singer himself was a creeper.

Jelly posted:true for the first episode imo, which I feel was a throwback Yeah, I've only seen a couple clips of 97, but the part where Magneto's in front of the UN going "I am trying to a be a better person, and even though you literally just showed me why I was right to be a villain in the first place and you're not worthy of my trust, I'm going to keep trying to be better, and if you give me a reason to end your asses then that's purely on you" was loving baller.
