@joemanfredi6267 Ай бұрын

(in chess) an opening or end play in which a player makes a sacrifice, typically of a pawn, for the sake of some compensating advantage. The definition of a Gambit. Often in use to save the king or queen. What queen did Gambit sacrifice for? He lived up to his name. A sacrifice for something he viewed greater than himself. At the end of the original animated series, Prof X, the last words to Gambit were, "How many times must the scoundrel play the hero before he believes it?"

In chess, a gambit is a sacrifice to gain an advantage usually to protect and advance the queen. In this case Gambit made the ultimate sacrifice. A very poetic symbolism. A bittersweet moment. That is why this episode for me cuts deep and now you know why he is my favorite X-Men and even my favorite Marvel character of all time.

This episode also made a point of introducing Moira McTaggart. In 2019 it was revealed that she was actually a mutant who can reset the timeline through a reincarnation power where she retains memories of her past life like reseting a game. Then she was depowered by the same gun that shot storm in episode 2 while Sinister cloned her with her reincarnation power intact, calling them his "Moira Engine" and using them to manipulate the timeline to perfect his plans. Original Moira has also become an insane villain in recent years and uploaded her mind to an android body after a future Wolverine killed her.

The world has its way of ripping us from the innocence of our youth. Our Saturday morning X-men cartoon no longer exists. Those of us who grew up with these shows have seen enough to know that the world is not a happy place. Our safe spaces, our sanctuaries aren’t as safe as we believe them to be. This is why this show hits us so hard. Yes, it’s great to see our heroes use their powers in cool and awesome ways, but at the end of the day, they’re just doing their best, just like we all are, and like us, they don’t always get the win. There are some points in time that can’t be undone and this might be one. With both Charles and Magneto gone, it feels as though the coin has been tossed, the X-men will need to decide on which side they land. I’m a little scared y’all.

The level of courage with the adult conversations and terrifying stakes this show has shown. I know it's the X-Men & I know no one ever stays dead in the comics, but Beau & the rest of the team have it in them to keep Gambit dead for a long time just to really cinch in the stakes of what's happening. Cable might actually fail on this Edge of Tomorrow path. I think after reading what Beau said about the Pulse Nightclub and 9/11 with regards to the approach to this show, all of us who grew up with this show are seeing that passage of time in our lives now. We're older and this show is paralleling us. And it shows that we don't have superhero fatigue - we just want the stories to reflect the real-life realities. And of all things, Disney+ has arguably had three of the best shows the last couple of years - Andor, Shogun and now this.

The showrunner posted an explanation for why this episode plays out like it does (worth reading, made me love it even more), and one of his big points is that Gambit's death is supposed to be a reminder that "some stories are cut short." So even _if_ they go back in time to fix things, I'm pretty sure Gambit won't be saved. That would take away a lot from this episode's impact and its intent.

Yeah, even if they're able to intercept the Kaiju-Sentinel before it hits Genosha, they may not be able to stop it without a similar move by Gambit. Still, I could also see just having this moment, and especially making those who saw it in real-time wait a week between episodes, being enough to convey that message.

This event in the comics is also what triggers Emma Frost second mutation to become diamond. It's how she survived the attack. They for sure put Emma on Genosha on purpose. Putting Moira McTaggart on Genosha for this was a wild move though with what was revealed in the comics about her back in 2019.

The “I can’t feel you” line hurts bad enough, but the voice actors delivery of it just makes it absolutely heart breaking

I think this is one of the few times that we are all super excited to use time travel to fix the deaths. Like how many times have we been like ‘of course they will find a way to bring them back 🙄’ and this time it’s ‘you better find a way to bring them back!!! 😭’

“Sugar I can’t feel you” That line hits so hard and then the fade to black with theme song playing so slowly and eerily. A week later and I’m still in shock.

Great reaction!!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that feels that way about Gambit. Gambit was finally let off the chain to just highlight how awesome hes ALWAYS been!!!

This show’s whole thing seems to just be “hey guess what! You have a new favourite X-Man every week!”. The MCU iteration already had a lot to live up to, this show is just raising that bar higher and higher.

Theres a moment right before the party where the overhead shot of Genosha has The Watcher in the sky with stars as his eyes. Almost as if this moment is so pivitol in the multiverse he had to be a witness.

I know this tragic story where 16 million mutants died and if it's not the Professor's sister behind this because both Gray and Prier had what looked like a psychic attack so Cassandra could be behind this to knock out telepaths before geneside started happened, but then I started thinking that we've just been introduced to one of those ancient evil gods of mischief that goes by the name of The Adversary, and that character loves chaos and despair and what's more despair than what happened in this episode.... This evil known as The Adversary cannot be defeated by normal means without sacrificing life. Another enemy can be Bastion. What really tugged at my heartstrings was when you look into Cabel's eyes and realize that it's his mother in front of him and that he couldn't save her.

I'm just sitting here still emotionally drained from this episode, days later. But, knowing that Beau DeMayo said that "This (episode 5) is just the warm up for episodes 8, 9 and 10". This is a warm up? A warm up?! I don't think any of us are prepared for what is coming in the next 5 episodes.

My advice is to pick a character you like and jump into the X-men universe that way by reading or watching their bios. It’s like falling down a rabbit hole!
