One clarification, I think when Scott is saying "better" he means morally better, like, if the X-Men were as morally bankrupt as most of humanity, mutants would already have wiped humanity out. The only reason we're still around is because of Professor X and the X-Men's commitment to defend everyone, mutant or not.

Next thing i know im sobbing into a towel at 1am trying desperately not to wake anyone up. This show is just amazing

@onyx081 Ай бұрын

I don't think Magneto is actually dead either. I think that Leech just disabled Magneto's powers so the Sentinel wouldn't be able to detect his mutant signature and therefore perceive him as being dead as a result of it's attack.

@dirtandsilkk Ай бұрын

The original wasn't aimed at kids....dude a member died in the first two episodes. Not everything animated is meant for kids

@bajansamurai Ай бұрын

@@dirtandsilkk Being fully serious now, I can attest that back then "aimed at kids" did not mean "shy about the subject of death". Many cartoons had a death portrayed or implied back in the '80s and '90s, but what kept them kid friendly was that they didn't have a hyper violent portrayal of the deaths. It was aimed for the teen demographic mostly, with just enough restraint that younger children could still feel comfortable watching most of it. They styled many things to go over kids heads so they'd just be enamored with the pew pew and one liners. Gallons of blood, violent vaporization and thirst scenes were not part of those first seasons.

@dirtandsilkk Ай бұрын

@bajansamurai again. Going back to the 60s, many animated series were not meant for kids. The lack of blood and violence were to adhere to the laws of the FCC. Shows like Hunter, A-Team, Knight Rider, New York Undercover, etc all were not meant for children but American TV laws prohibit use of tons of blood and violence. Childhood favorites like Flintstones and Jetsons were never meant for kids from sheer subject matter. Based off The Honeymooners and Dick van Dyke respectfully, these shows were based off real life scenarios like work,bills, raising kids and having them. But because of the fact that they were animated, Americans assumed they were for kids. They even featured the same laugh tracks found in the sitcoms.. so no. X-men were marketed to kids due to American views but were not meant for kids due to subject matter

@bajansamurai Ай бұрын

@@dirtandsilkk That's an oversimplification of what happened back then. All of those shows were aimed at kids by the "protections" described. What made them transcend the limitations was the fact they could keep (or incorporate) adult themes that weren't obvious or cared about by the children too young to understand them. Jetsons, just as one example, had the presence or the kid and staple humanized pet dog to appeal to kids, but it was parent friendly by having the intertwined adult concerns (which comes down to recognizing parents sometimes had to sit through these cartoons anyway). The stigma also was that cartoons of these types were never seen as adult animation either, so no networks were creating them to pull in adult audiences as much as they were taking successful adult live action shows (e.g., A-Team) and extending their life cycle with a younger audience. This is network craft 101.

The animation was so on point , when magneto talks to the quiet council, and you see the glass perspire from the heat and ice melting , I was so hooked and amazed I want 20 seasons!!

Eagle-eyed X-Men fans will notice that the view from the Blackbird's windshield, KNOW that, That's NOT the island of Genoaha, but the exact same image of Krakoa from Johnathan Hickman's HOX/POX. Also, 2 more notable deaths from the episode were Banshee and Marrow as they were flying. They were warning others, and directing them to get to the gardens and we're blasted outta the sky. One more notable cameo took place, but this was s major character in the comics: ISCA THE UNBEATEN, Genesis' sister, Apocalypse's sister-in-law showed up as well!

"Happy Nation" is such an awesome deep cut. I wonder who on the X-Men '97 production team is the big Ace of Base fan. Oh and I also wore out the Ace of Base "The Sign" cd. So you're not alone my dude.

As soon as I saw the Watcher in the sky, I SHOULD have known it was about to be a massacre....I should have known. 😢

To be honest, I have a theory that the reason the Sentinel said omega level threat eliminated is because as the shield broke leech canceled out magnetos powers that way he wouldn’t die or be refinished by the scanners. I just have a feeling that Leech essentially sacrifice himself for who he saw as his savior, becoming magneto’s savior himself. I could definitely see that weighing on magneto and creating a deeper character arc.

Hands down best episode ever. The bars in this episode from multiple characters alone HIT! Give Beau his flowers in abundance. Oddly enough IMDB credits him along w/ Stan Lee and Jack Kirby for writing the episode. Ummmm...hooooooow? lol Lil confused. Didn't Gambit get his powers restored back to full potential by a younger sinister? I know with his battle with New Sun his power levels went back to normal but when they indicate normal is that pre-procedure levels or post-procedure levels? I do have one complaint if any of the episode...possibly said person was fighting on other parts of the island and the ep just focused on Mags, Gambit and Rogue...Exodus was on the island...bro where was yooooooou?! lol Thanks for vid!

Episode was Awesome... But I think a lot of folks missed the Scott line... "How MANY!?" I'm seeing the Cyclops who adopts " The Dream by any means necessary" mentality and the X Men start going HARD against every threat to mutantkind.

Magneto's death.... I was genuinely broken. He's my fav, and he got his lick, but FUCK MAN

The interview with Cyclops reminds me of how I've always loved that the X-Men and most mutants express more "Humanity" to normal humans, than normal humans express to them.

I can’t wait till storm gets her powers and gives us a display on omega level mutants like magneto did.

It's wild because E is for Extinction was the event that got me to walk away from comics

@shadowsaiyan Ай бұрын

Fall of X did that for me. Lots of parallels between them. I feel like E is for Extinction was Moira's rehearsal dinner for Fall of X, but completely unknown to the readers 😭😭😭
