episode of X-Men 97.

6
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:21,560
Pretend that you are 12 years
old again and you have a variety

00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,960
pack of chips, so they're small
and you might eat more than one.
8
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:40,320
Oh yeah, and so we're eating.
We, you know, people would ask
9
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,120
they're like, are you doing
X-Men?
10
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,320
There's three episodes then and
there's not been an episode.
11
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,680
We did three body problem.
There's a lot of threes going
12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,480
on, but we wanted to do it and
we're doing it now.
13
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:52,680

OK.
Do you want crop tops?
18
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,560
Because we've got crop tops.
So many.
19
00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:10,240
Do you want long ponytails?
We got them.

We have three episodes.
It is going to be a lot of
37
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,560
spoilers, so we do not want to
spoil this for you.
38
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,240
Please go watch it, they're 30
minutes long.
39
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,880
And then come back and join us.
All right, so let us officially
40
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:09,600
take a bite of X-Men. 97
episodes 1-2 and three written
41
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:14,440
by Beau de Mayo and directed by
Jake Casterena, Chase Conley and
42
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,520
Emmy Yoramura respectively.
Still reeling from the loss of
43
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,000
their leader, Professor X,
Wolverine, Cyclops, Jean Grey,
44
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,960
Morph Rogue, Gambit, Jubilee,
Beast, Bishop and Storm must
45
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,480
come together to face new
adversaries including anti
46
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:34,640
mutant technology, mysterious
clones, evil scientists and love
47
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:37,160
triangles.
Crop tops abound.
48
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,200
The dream of the 90s is alive in
the X Mansion.
49
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,720
That's.
Literally explains all X-Men
50
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,160
comics, just in that short
little thing.
51
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,880
It's not even X-Men 97.
It's 100% just the X-Men.
52
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,600
X-Men is just taking love
triangles and then giving the
53
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,680
people powers.
Oh yeah, yeah.
54
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,680
It is a mutant soap opera.
Yes.
55
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:04,520
Drama and powers.
That is what this is.
56
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,040
Before we get into everything
right, do you have history with
57
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,440
the X-Men 97 not 97 X-Men
animated show.
58
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:14,760
I'm going to get these who
confused.
59
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,400
Yes, just X-Men and X-Men 97.
It's hard.
60
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,200
I absolutely do, yes.
I loved the original X-Men show.
61
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:27,880
I think actually the X-Men show
is what got me into comics as a
62
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,440
kid.
And what's funny is that, like
63
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,600
when when I've watched them as
an adult, those original
64
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,880
episodes from the 90s, I don't
think as a kid I realized how
65
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,840
serious they were.
Like, I was just excited for the
66
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,440
powers and the crazy characters
and the Sentinels.
67
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,200
So to go back and watch them,
and now watch the X-Men 97 as an
68
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,640
adult, you're like, there was a
lot going on here.
69
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,120
Yeah, there's a lot.
And the episodes, it's funny
70
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,440
because I think throughout my
life it's always been there,
71
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,000
right?
That that is the thing that's
72
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,480
always been there.
And you always know that theme
73
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,360
song in your head.
You can always see the intro in
74
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:00,880
it.
You can always see, you know,
75
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,720
Gene fainting every single time.
And it's one of those things
76
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,600
where like watching it as you do
get older, you're like, wow,
77
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,440
they really like milked some of
these storylines.
78
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,000
It's a lot of like, it took a
long time to get through some of
79
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,839
this stuff.
So one of the good things about
80
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:21,120
this is that they it feels like
it, but like it's brisker.
81
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,920
Definitely, absolutely.
Because I feel like in the old
82
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,480
one, right?
Episode 3 of of this new run
83
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,320
could have been at least four
episodes.
84
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,920
I mean, Storm, you know,
spoilers right out the gate.
85
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,280
Storm losing her powers and
looking out a window.
86
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:38,560
Could have been a couple
episodes.
87
00:04:38,840 --> 00:04:41,240
Like that's how that's how it
was structured.
88
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,560
We could have seen her write the
letter in real time.
89
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,960
But there is just that that
feeling of, you know, I think
90
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,280
most people are aged.
This is the thing that got them
91
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:53,560
into comics or it's always we
know that, right?
92
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,160
It's like Batman, Superman,
X-Men and Spider Man.
93
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,840
Those are the things we know
because that's what we grew up
94
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:01,400
with.
And there's just such a fun
95
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:06,600
feeling of, like, Fox kids.
Yes, serial Saturday mornings or
96
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,880
whenever you could watch it, but
Saturday mornings.
97
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:14,200
And just like living with those
characters I love now, knowing
98
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,440
what they mean and what they
were trying to say.
99
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,680
And this carries through.
I want to know though, when you
100
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,800
were younger, who's your
favorite character watching it?
101
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,280
You know, I liked the Blue
People.
102
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,040
Beast and Nightcrawler and
Mystique were always my
103
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,440
favorite.
I liked Mystique because, like,
104
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:33,960
she's cool and I love those
powers.
105
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,840
But like Nightcrawler, I always.
I don't know if it's because I
106
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:38,920
grew up in like a religious
household and everything, so I
107
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,760
could kind of like it was like
familiar to me.
108
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,880
But I loved Beast.
It's like he doesn't look like
109
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,600
he would be so nice and so
gentle.
110
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,080
And he is.
And he's super smart.
111
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,360
He's delightful.
I really like him in this for
112
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,760
me.
So I think that when I was
113
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,000
trying to be, you know, not a
homosexual, as a kid I was like
114
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,840
Cyclops is my favorite, but in
reality, Storm is my favorite.
115
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,480
Yeah, Storm is still your
favorite.
116
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,400
I had a storm action figure and
she had a a see through
117
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,680
lightning bolt on her chest and
you press the button on her back
118
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,360
it lit up.
That is really cool.
119
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,960
It was awesome.
I had some action figures, but
120
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,440
it was like the ones I didn't
care about, like at the time,
121
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,160
like Wolverine and Cyclops and
Jean, I was like.
122
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,760
I had a cyclops too, and he he
spoke that cyclops of.
123
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,360
Course he didn't.
Yeah, he never stops.
124
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,480
He really, he really is the
straight man of the group.
125
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,680
He's Mr. Serious.
So getting into this new
126
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,600
incarnation or continuation, I
should say, because it's 97,
127
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,640
it's like a few months after the
original series ends.
128
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,880
The really cool thing about this
is not only is it the first
129
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,920
property under Marvel's
animation banner, but it's
130
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,520
outside of the MCU cannon, but a
continuation of something that
131
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:53,840
happened 30 years ago.
Yeah.
132
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,840
And so myself and I know a few
people were hesitant with it,
133
00:06:57,840 --> 00:06:59,120
right.
It's like how are you going to
134
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:05,160
be able to capture those things
that captured people then to now
135
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,480
and continue it?
Like not that you have to prove
136
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,680
while you're doing it, but are
you going to be able to do that?
137
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,800
I right.
I'm just going to say it.
138
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,080
I think they did and exceeded my
expectations with it.
139
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,600
Yeah, absolutely.
I for sure was leaning into the
140
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,160
nostalgia of this.
I mean, I think of someone who
141
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,760
is on the precipice of being 40
years old.
142
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,200
I am looking back to the things
that keep me young, and this is
143
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,200
one of those things.
So I was immediately excited
144
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,240
about this.
And I think that having some of
145
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,240
the original voice cast coming,
hearing those voices, it's just
146
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,760
tethering us to the property.
And I think that they're still
147
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,440
bringing that drama, they're
still bringing these characters,
148
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:52,040
but the animation now is so much
more crisp and so fast.
149
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,240
These fight scenes are
incredible.
150
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,560
Yeah, it's it's interesting,
right?
151
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,480
Whenever it's not like a fight
scene and stuff, it kind of the
152
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,880
show gives me like a lo fi feel
to it almost.
153
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,000
And the the animation is
amazing, but there's just like
154
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,560
oh camera movements that that
they do with this animation.
155
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:13,520
The fight scenes are so fast and
it's like, I don't know what I
156
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,880
was expecting, but I'm so glad
that they're showcasing what
157
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,120
they can do and my favorite
thing about these fight scenes,
158
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,240
particularly the first one.
Cyclops.
159
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,400
The first, or I guess I should
say the Sentinel one, the big
160
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,920
one with the whole team is that
we got to see them work so well
161
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,400
as a team.
Like that's what I want.
162
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,840
That's what I want of the X-Men.
It's like they live together,
163
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,280
they teach together, they fight
crime together.
164
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,360
They need to be like a well
oiled machine.
165
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,760
They cry together.
And they sleep together.
166
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,320
Babies.
Multiple of them.
167
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,120
But that's what I want to see,
right?
168
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,680
We see Gambit, you know, putting
his powers on Wolverine's claws
169
00:08:48,680 --> 00:08:51,000
and then morph, turning into
BLOB and then shooting him up.
170
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,760
I'm like yes, this is what I
want.
171
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:57,960
Yeah, I think that when we saw
the the fight before it when
172
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,280
they're rescuing whose sunspots
eventually.
173
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,120
But he's just known as Roberto
at this time.
174
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,960
When we see Cyclops come in and
he is like black, like what are
175
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,120
what are.
I always just thought of them as
176
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,400
lasers, but they're like, what
is, what is it called?
177
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,880
So I'm just going to explain it
this way.
178
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,640
So GAIL Simone, who's going to
be writing the X-Men, she's a
179
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,800
phenomenal writer.
She likes to go on Twitter and
180
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,240
say things that like if you
know, you know.
181
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,800
And so she did a poll of who has
the best heat vision, Superman
182
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,000
or Cyclops and people that know
Cyclops.
183
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,040
It's not cheat.
It's not, it's concussive force,
184
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,360
concussive.
So it's more of like a a force
185
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:46,840
and not necessarily like heat.
It feels more like it's solid.
186
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,160
Like it could punch you in the
face.
187
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,960
Yes, he uses it to push, right.
And I think that what was so
188
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,520
cool is that he was really
manipulating his surroundings
189
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,000
with it and moving around the
place, which was so cool.
190
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,920
And then later on when they're
going to the Sahara to fight the
191
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,600
Sentinels and and and Trask, he
uses it.
192
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,520
He's falling from the plane and
you're thinking, why is no one
193
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,080
saving him?
And he uses it to, I don't know,
194
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,480
stop himself from dying.
To get his superhero landing,
195
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,440
What do you mean you don't know?
That's what it was.
196
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,320
It was so cool, that whole
scene.
197
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,920
I mean, there's just so many.
I feel like at the end of this,
198
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,920
we just need to do like a top
ten moments from the season
199
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,600
because there's so much things
that happened so quickly but are
200
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,160
just so cool.
Like, I really liked in that
201
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,400
scene Rogue having to like carry
two people.
202
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,560
She's like holding Beast by his
underpants because that's the
203
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:40,200
only thing that she can grab
onto.
204
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:43,120
But the his superhero landing is
so cool.
205
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaking of Cyclops, Cyclops has
a tried history through fans and
206
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,600
comics and everything.
I have been one of them.
207
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,960
Of not being on Scott
Summerside.
208
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,640
I have my feelings about him.
This makes me love him.
209
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,320
I love him.
I I know his character.
210
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,280
I know his, his type of leader.
I know that he wants to be the
211
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,360
best he can.
He's going to make mistakes, but
212
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,680
like you can tell he really
cares about them.
213
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,280
And also he's cool as hell in
this.
214
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,520
I He wasn't cool before, He's
cool now.
215
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:18,160
Yeah, I think that seeing him in
action is where he gets his cool
216
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,000
points.
When he's not in his full, you
217
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,760
know, Cyclops mode, when it's
the drama, he's very cut and
218
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,440
dry.
He seems like he's very black
219
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,800
and white.
And that's when he sort of loses
220
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,360
points, when you're kind of
like, oh boy, here he goes
221
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:33,960
again.
Here's dad to ruin the fun,
222
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,640
right?
Even during beignets.
223
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,160
Let him make his beignets.
Gambit's like, Gambit's making
224
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,600
beignets and he's like, damn it,
not your beignets.
225
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:51,720
So, Adam, so Speaking of like
the the show before and the show
226
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:57,320
now, do you feel like if you
didn't watch the original, would
227
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,440
you like understand what's going
on?
228
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,800
Like, do you think they do they
did a good job to where you
229
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,640
don't have to do that because
remember they have to like
230
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:08,680
capture like my brother's age
audience, you know, the ones
231
00:12:08,680 --> 00:12:12,520
that are like 18 now.
I think so.
232
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,400
I think they give you enough of
it in the sense that, you know,
233
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,600
the the show opens up with
saying, like Xavier is dead, you
234
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,080
know, he's been assassinated and
we're like, oh, OK, got it, you
235
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,360
know.
I forgot I remember.
236
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,000
Now Gene's pregnant and you know
Cyclops is there.
237
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,880
And then we also see our friend
Wolverine kind of awning in the
238
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,280
background.
So I think they lay the work for
239
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,080
us to know the major plot points
that we have going on here.
240
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,840
Although I don't think you would
know what the Sentinels are.
241
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,440
So that's the only thing I
think.
242
00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:45,480
Only thing I think you would be
lost on.
243
00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:47,480
Yeah, it might be one of those
things where they're just such
244
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,960
an iconic image where it's like,
OK, I get it, they're big
245
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,400
robots, someone extinct, like
kill when all of Mewans I I
246
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,200
liked it.
I think that they did it in
247
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,560
subtle ways as far as like in
the intro, they change it every
248
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:02,680
episode a little bit and you get
some of those big storylines
249
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:05,720
like the Dark Phoenix Saga and
you see some of that and it's
250
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,000
like, oh, I've seen that image
before.
251
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,400
I get what that.
Means we even got, like, sewer
252
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,840
people.
Yeah, we got the sewer people.
253
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,760
Yes, the the Warlocks.
The Leech made an appearance.
254
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,640
Yeah, little Leech.
He reminds me of Dobby, the
255
00:13:19,680 --> 00:13:21,240
third person thing.
How dare you?
256
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,560
He does.
Leech is better than.
257
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,680
He's like, don't hurt Leech,
right?
258
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,880
Yeah, he does talk in that that
manner.
259
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:34,320
So as far as the stories go,
they are taking huge stories.
260
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,160
One particular, I guess more in
the third episode with Inferno,
261
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,840
with Madeline Pryor and Gene the
clone and Nathan and Cyclops.
262
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,920
It's a big, long story and they
condensed it down into really
263
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:50,080
one episode and I'm loving that.
What I think that they're doing,
264
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,680
even just based off of some of
the titles, is that they're
265
00:13:52,680 --> 00:13:56,000
taking these big events or these
massive things throughout the
266
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,680
history of X-Men and kind of
condensing them.
267
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,680
But they're doing it in a way
where each one kind of flows
268
00:14:02,680 --> 00:14:04,320
into the next one.
It's really smart.
269
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,160
It's smart storytelling that
they're doing.
270
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,240
They're.
Giving us cliffhangers at the
271
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,040
ends of all these, right?
And so in the first one, it's
272
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:16,920
the appearance of Magneto saying
that Professor X has given him
273
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,720
everything.
And then, you know, I mean we,
274
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,160
we, I'm just going to bring it
up now.
275
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:26,960
The, the, the lush, the
gorgeous, the skin tight, purple
276
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:32,240
Magneto outfit, he said.
Jumpsuit sleeveless with opera
277
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,720
length gloves.
I went through some things
278
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,960
watching this and it was like,
everybody in here is hot.
279
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,280
Everybody in here will show lots
of skin, right?
280
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,720
It's like we got Gambit and the
crop top making beignets and I
281
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,040
was like, what are they doing in
this?
282
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,520
Like he doesn't.
He doesn't fear the splattering
283
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,040
oil from the deep fryer.
Not on those apples, no.
284
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,520
But then when Magneto came in, I
was like, OK, he's like updated
285
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,800
a little bit.
He updated his look When you see
286
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,840
him in the second episode in
just that outfit and the Big M
287
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,440
outfit and the way he still
talks and does these monologues
288
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,480
and soliloquies and everything,
and it's like they didn't have a
289
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,800
right to make Magneto so fine.
He said M is for mother.
290
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,600
M is for magnificent.
Look at this baby.
291
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,480
Yeah, he's giving grant
speeches.
292
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:33,000
He's like, look, I know I've,
you know, done crimes against
293
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:37,520
humanity, but my friend
Professor X said stop.
294
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,920
So I'm going.
To I mean, let him, let him.
295
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,760
I love a complicated villain,
but it gets complicated when
296
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,200
that villain is very good
looking.
297
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,160
The hare.
Makes Peaches like he does.
298
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,760
I do want to talk like for one
second.
299
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,520
I just love when you see him,
when he goes into Professor XS
300
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,520
office and he's reading his last
will and testament and it is a
301
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,280
tome I like.
Did he itemize?
302
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,720
Everything that is.
So Professor X, he's like, I'm
303
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,080
going to get this bound in
leather.
304
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,760
Make sure you have like metal
clasps on the edge so that they
305
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,320
don't get dented.
Oh my gosh, that was a fancy
306
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,480
last will and testament I.
Want one?
307
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,240
Well, OK.
It'll be this big.
308
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,640
We'll get on it.
I want it.
309
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,400
Yeah, I have.
I have nothing to leave to you.
310
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,720
We're going to leave it to our
Patreon members.
311
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:33,240
You're in our.
Do you want our plants look at
312
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,000
these microphones?
They're not cheap.
313
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,640
No, that's what I'm saying.
Congratulations.

00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,680
But OK, going back, we'll get
back to Magneto.
315
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,840
They definitely do a good job of
connecting these episodes,
316
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,360
right?
And then at the end of episode
317
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,760
two, we have the cliffhanger of
the, you know, extra gene gene
318
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,640
dose.
Oh my God, you.
319
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,160
When I forgot we were talking
about because Magneto just
320
00:16:55,160 --> 00:17:00,120
scrambled my brain.
You knew who the real gene was
321
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,079
by her fainting within two
seconds of being on screen.
322
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:07,359
So.
I need the X-Men.
323
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,599
I don't understand.
I love her, but like no girl.
324
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,800
And so I have a problem.
I I've been thinking about this
325
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:18,040
and it really bothers me that
one of the most powerful mutants
326
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:22,000
that is like on the level of
Professor X happens to be a
327
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,760
woman and every time she uses
her powers she faints well.
328
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,560
Yeah, I mean, I think that just
might be one of the times.
329
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:35,720
And two, if you have this person
that can literally stop a fight
330
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,000
and two seconds of it happening,
they always have to make these
331
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,440
things of like they can't use it
that much or they can do like
332
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,920
this one cool thing of like
bringing everybody out of
333
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,360
Dante's Inferno and then she has
to like take a nap.
334
00:17:49,360 --> 00:17:52,600
It's the whole 11 effect from
Stranger Things, which I always
335
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:56,680
talk about, right I And it's
funny because I do feel like
336
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,040
the, oh, you know, these these
female members of this group are
337
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,280
just incredibly strong.
They're so.
338
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,000
I mean literally and just in
every sense of the.
339
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,480
Word.
Yes, yes, absolutely.
340
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,760
And I do think it's funny,
'cause I'm like, sometimes I'm
341
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,920
watching, I'm like, why doesn't
Rogue just take her gloves off,
342
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,280
right?
Like they're they're like,
343
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,280
waiting to cue storm up to do
something really cool.
344
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,800
It's like just let her
electrocute them immediately.
345
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,800
Yeah, yeah.
I mean she could but you know
346
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:29,600
she has her issues with it And
Lenore Zan doing Rogue again is
347
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,360
like, it's it's so interesting
with the original cast that did
348
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:34,840
come back with like Wolverine
and Storm and Rogue.
349
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,000
They still sound like them but
time, right?
350
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,400
But oddly it's comforting.
It's like I I still feel like
351
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,160
it's them and like the other
character, other voice actors
352
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,440
that are doing the other
characters of not the original
353
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,440
ones.
I think they're doing great.
354
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,440
I love that Morph's voice is
different, thank you.
355
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,760
But I don't have a issue with
any of that.
356
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,600
I think at first I was just like
think I can't not hear their
357
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,400
voices in my head.
And I was like, oh, this is this
358
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,960
is fine, this is fine.
I think I have it.
359
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,600
Quickly went away.
Yeah, I mean, I mean,
360
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,800
personally, I don't think I've
watched it recently enough for
361
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,800
me to really remember those
voices.
362
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,200
And I think the fact that
Storm's voice is the same, I
363
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,280
mean it.
You can't beat that.
364
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,160
And it's just incredible.
I mean, seeing her make the sand
365
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,080
into glass and then make a glass
tornado was just incredible.
366
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:31,280
I there's there's like there's
three moments in these three
367
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:36,440
episodes that like I love so
much and that is one of them.
368
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,480
Like that is the Storm.
That is the Omega level threat
369
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,760
that you want to see is.
At first when they all landed, I
370
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,560
was like, where is Storm and
called in the forecast?
371
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,200
I don't know.
Like the X-Men run things in
372
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,080
Marvel.
The MCU hasn't even gotten to
373
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:55,880
the X-Men yet.
Like they're dipping their toes
374
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,040
in them now.
We just got a wink.
375
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,960
We just we're just getting them
and I'm very excited with how
376
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,240
they're handling this.
Like yeah, they do have a
377
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:07,320
jumping off pad and that like
nostalgia factor, but like if
378
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,920
they do stuff like this, if they
treat them with care, this is
379
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,480
what the.
MCU This is what Marvel needs.
380
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,600
They need that kind of jolt of
energy to get people excited
381
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,360
again.
Yeah, and the X-Men are here to
382
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:21,000
save that.
You know, and there's such a
383
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,520
difference within an animated
series and what they can do in
384
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,760
30 minutes compared to some of
the Marvel, you know, live
385
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,040
action shows in 30 minutes.
I mean, we're getting the drama,
386
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,000
we're getting the character
building, we're getting the
387
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,280
action and seeing the powers.
So it's it's so much jam packed
388
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,320
into one thing and you can't
help but love it.
389
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,640
Well, and there's also still
time for, like, those soap opera
390
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,640
monologues.
There's always a room somewhere
391
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,720
where Gene and Scott are just
talking to each other.
392
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,240
Yeah, that's what they do.
Yeah.
393
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:50,840
They make a baby and they do
that.
394
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,800
Yeah, and then I mean Rogue and
Magneto are talking to each
395
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:54,520
other.
OK.
396
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,440
Can we talk about that for a?
Second, you know we can.
397
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,240
Do you think, what do you think
is happening there?
398
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,000
Because like, we rewatch them.
Obviously they're very short and
399
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,480
it's fun to rewatch them.
And I think by the third one I
400
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,640
was like, did did we ever find
out like what was happening with
401
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:10,440
them?
We haven't.
402
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,680
And then I'm sure there's ten
episodes I think, for the
403
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,640
season, so I'm sure it's going
to happen.
404
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,680
But what do you think is
happening between them?
405
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,720
So there was a conversation.
Now.
406
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,080
Now granted, as we all know in
the history of a Bite of right,
407
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,120
Noah is the comic book
encyclopedia.
408
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,320
I am a peruser.
So I don't know the history of
409
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,960
these characters, but there was
a conversation between Magneto
410
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,120
and Rogue where he says, you
know, have you told them who you
411
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:38,880
once were?
And she's like the past stays in
412
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,880
the past.
So I'm going to let that Kitty
413
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,840
stay in that bag.
Meow.
414
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,120
I love sayings.
Yeah, I.
415
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,040
Love.
So there's some history between
416
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,840
the two of them.
I don't know what it is right
417
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:54,800
now, but in that moment, you
know, it seems like he's the
418
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,920
only one that can handle his
skin.
419
00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:00,920
Yeah, I mean, he is.
He creates A electromagnetic, I
420
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,560
don't know, science powery stuff
to where she can touch him.
421
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,840
It complicates things because he
can touch her.
422
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,600
I I think they're playing with
us.
423
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,360
I don't think that there's
anything romantically now
424
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,160
happening between them.
But I think for Rogue, and
425
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,560
that's kind of her character,
right?
426
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,360
Like, if you can just try to
imagine, like, never being able
427
00:22:23,360 --> 00:22:28,120
to touch anybody, I mean, at all
would probably mess with you,
428
00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:28,880
right?
Yeah.
429
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,720
How's her?
Her story and how she grew up
430
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:35,200
and everything?
And so I'm curious if she is
431
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,400
seeing 'cause she was one of the
first ones to kind of defend
432
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,120
Magneto with taking over the
X-Men and being there.
433
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,160
And not just for the history,
but I think she's more willing
434
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,240
to accept that because he can
give her something that she
435
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,680
can't normally get.
But I think it's more of just
436
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,640
like maybe they're just walking
their perimeter of Xavier School
437
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,400
and just like holding hands,
'cause she, you know, like, I I
438
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,000
don't know of anything Erantic's
going on.
439
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,400
If there is cool another another
love triangle.
440
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,440
But.
I mean, yeah, it it was a weird
441
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,160
moment, right?
Because once they come out of
442
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,000
the office, Gambit is standing
there, He thinks something is
443
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,320
going on.
And then in our next episode,
444
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,400
Morph is looking at, you know,
their touch screen outside of
445
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,760
the training room, and it seems
that Magneto and Rogue have
446
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,160
booked like the next three days
in there.
447
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:22,320
More.
Yeah, That's a lot.
448
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,920
Yeah.
I I mean, I I hope.
449
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,560
I'm just saying, I hope that
they're not doing anything
450
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:31,960
because I need Magneto to like,
stay the course.
451
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,560
I don't need him to fuck up.
Gambit's going to be real sad.
452
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,480
I don't want Gambit to be sad.
Me either need to be sad.
453
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,600
Gambit.
Listen, let's talk about Gambit
454
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,080
for a second, OK?
He's crop tops.
455
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,320
He's ABS.
He's talking about himself in
456
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,320
third person.
You can't help but love the guy.
457
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,320
He cooks beignets.
Yeah, yeah.
458
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,800
They said don't forget he's from
New Orleans.
459
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,440
I do feel like out of Louisiana,
I feel like out of everybody.
460
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,560
Even though his image is like
taking over the Internet by
461
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,160
storm, I think he's the one that
has, like, has had the least
462
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,240
amount of story time so far.
We have so many more episodes to
463
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,320
go through, so I'm excited to
see that rogue, Magneto, gambit
464
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,800
stuff happen.
But I love him.
465
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:17,520
I think his powers are so cool.
I mean, he was even in the 90s
466
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,840
and before he was walking around
in the bisexual flag colors
467
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:25,200
like, you know, like, I mean who
you have to be like super
468
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,120
confident to just be like I'm
going to have this like plaited
469
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,440
bright pink, hot pink vest and a
trench coat and pull it off like
470
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,760
it's just amazing.
Pull it up, 100%.
471
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaking of trench coat, I also
want to talk about Jubilee a
472
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,840
little bit.
So what I'm liking for Jubilee
473
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,400
now is that she's no longer the
youngest one, right?
474
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:51,160
So we're seeing Roberto very
much going on the same ride that
475
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,160
she went on in the original
series.
476
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,120
So she's kind of like the older
sister.
477
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,640
It's like a it's a fun full
circle moment.
478
00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:02,680
And I think that people this,
those are the few moments that
479
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,000
like if you did watch the
original, you would know how
480
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,840
cool that is and the growth for
that character because she was
481
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,440
the one that was scared and did
run away.
482
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,440
She did everything that Roberto
did and now she gets to be the
483
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,480
one that can empathize with him
and recruit and also welcome
484
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,200
more people into their family.
She's the perfect person to do
485
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,440
that A. 100%.
Jubilation.
486
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,920
Amazing.
Jubilation Lee Also dancing.
487
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,680
I I love that scene and I like,
I keep thinking about that
488
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,880
scene, especially when I think
about the animation for this.
489
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,280
It's just like it's so cool,
like how far we've come with
490
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:39,160
animation and it's like how
everything could change in
491
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,480
certain tones of colour and then
you have her powers moving and
492
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,640
then also the depth effect.
I don't it's just so cool.
493
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,200
Like those little moments.
I'm like, it's really cool.
494
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,560
Like they really thought about
the animation.
495
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,680
Yeah, I it's it's really funny.
I was really well watching it
496
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,280
again the second time.
I was really reflecting on when
497
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:03,440
Sailor Moon Crystal came out and
the animation was just
498
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,560
atrocious.
Well, the last season of the
499
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,000
X-Men animated show was not
great.
500
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,720
Was not great but but I'm but I
guess my point is is like it's
501
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,400
nice to see a revival of
something from my childhood be
502
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,960
given the care that we wanted to
be given.
503
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,440
Whereas something that I truly
cherish and love was like so
504
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,600
wonky for the first couple of
seasons.
505
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,480
Something you can't defend.
It's like, yeah, I know it's
506
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,360
bad.
I know and I really tried so
507
00:26:25,360 --> 00:26:28,400
hard, but like sometimes her
eyes would be like up one up and
508
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,360
one down they went and fixed it
later, but Yikes.
509
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:36,480
But But anyway, Speaking of
another update, Bishop getting
510
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,720
that haircut.
Oh, got the haircut.
511
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,000
I love that Bishop got the
respect he deserves.
512
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,520
I like that he got scenes and
showcasing his powers.
513
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,520
He's just so every I don't know
like what There's nothing bad I
514
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,280
can say about this show.
I, I, I don't even want to call
515
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,160
this a review because it's like
we're just.
516
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,720
Talking about, yeah.
And it's amazing.
517
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,040
Like, I think the only thing it
could be like, oh, they could
518
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,600
have like done this storyline a
little longer, but like, I don't
519
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,920
care.
Like I chop it down, give me the
520
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,920
cool beats and let's go.
Yeah, I mean, I I we were
521
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,440
watching it and I was like, man,
Bishop is really hot and Noah
522
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,880
goes, they're all hot.
They.
523
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,640
Are every single one of them.
They really are.
524
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,320
There's really there's a couple
more, like, really sexy moments
525
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,680
that I want to talk about.
But to just spread them out
526
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,600
through the episode, I won't do
that just yet.
527
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,400
If you had to pick a highlight
from these three, what would you
528
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,520
you pick?
It could be anything.
529
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,120
It doesn't even have to be like
an action scene.
530
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:36,560
It could be like a conversation
or just a scene.
531
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,320
A conversation or just a scene,
You go first.
532
00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:43,080
OK, Magneto talking to the UNI.
Was.
533
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,840
That like, but not even like,
not the whole scene.
534
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,320
The whole scene's amazing,
right?
535
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,280
More when he brings them up.
Yes, and he talks to them and
536
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,560
what AI mean.
If this man wasn't perfect
537
00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:58,960
already, I don't care about his
wrongs.
538
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:04,720
He wasn't perfect already.
He has them floating up in, I
539
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,000
don't know, atmospheres, The
stratosphere.
540
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:11,160
Let's just say that it's cold.
Almost space in space.
541
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,920
Pretty much.
And he says don't make me let
542
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,880
you down one.
Like literally let you down.
543
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:22,320
But like, don't make me do what
you think I'm going to do.
544
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,920
Like I'm trying.
I'm doing what Xavier wanted me
545
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,640
to do.
Work with me or it's not going
546
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,200
to go good.
But like, I just, Oh my God.
547
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,840
As soon as that happened, I was
just like amazing.
548
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,600
Yeah, Oscar.
Yeah, when he when he basically,
549
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:44,040
you know, sort of crucifies the
executioner on that giant seal
550
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,880
and lifts him up.
I was wishing that he did step
551
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,520
on his face.
I would have really loved that,
552
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,320
especially because what he did
to Storm.
553
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,680
Yeah, let me tell you about my
least favorite moment.
554
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,800
That, yeah.
That because my favorite X-Men
555
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,920
Storm, guess who's not, doesn't
have any powers, Storm.
556
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,120
OK, I will say that scene where
he's like, I could crush you.
557
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,160
And then a second, like, I just
love he.
558
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:11,120
Magneto's conversation really
summed up what the X-Men are and
559
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,520
kind of what they're an allegory
for what they stand for.
560
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,720
And it's when he says, you know,
Storm lost her powers and she's
561
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,080
on the ground and she he turns
to them and he says they've used
562
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,600
their awesome power to not just
help you, always help you.
563
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,640
And this is what you do to them.
You want them to be powerless
564
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,920
and scared and you don't care
just because they're different.
565
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,640
And that's what the whole X-Men
is about.
566
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:41,240
But I will say from just what
I'm thinking they're going to be
567
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,600
doing with Storm or what I hope
there is a period of time where
568
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,920
this kind of happens to Storm
and she becomes so badass.
569
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,600
She's like punk Storm and she's
like extreme with hand to hand
570
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,640
combat.
I'm just very excited to see
571
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,280
like this arc, even though it's
like, oh, she's like the Omega
572
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,160
level mutant, like, come on.
And you know, like, you know,
573
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,680
who didn't need personal growth
storm.
574
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,600
And we're making her go through
this.
575
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,280
I mean, so annoying.
That is very true, but we're
576
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,960
getting Forge out of it, and I
love Forge so much.
577
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,320
I can't wait to see what they do
with him and like how they're
578
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,480
going to do his powers, but he's
very cool.
579
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,600
Yeah.
Storm, she does not need
580
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,320
personal growth.
And she's also like kind of the
581
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,840
the glue that holds the team
together in a lot of ways.
582
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,440
Because you saw Gene talking to
her, it's like I need to tell
583
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,120
you something that I can't even
tell Scott, and that's who Gene
584
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,040
is.
So it's going to be really
585
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,600
interesting to see how long
she's not going to be with the
586
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,520
team and how that affects that
dynamic.
587
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,360
Yeah, 'cause they're a little
bit in disarray at the moment
588
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,880
when we left them off, right?
So it is discovered that
589
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:52,320
pregnant Gene who has Nathan the
baby, is actually not Jean,
590
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,160
she's clone gene.
Clone Gene.
591
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,640
And so.
Brimstone clone.
592
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,000
I think that's what Magneto
might have called her.
593
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,880
Mama, she's the Goblin.
She is clone Gene Brimstone
594
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,640
clone Goblin Queen, which she
just came up with her by herself
595
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,080
and then Madeline Pryor.
I really loved that episode.
596
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:15,080
I think from like an action and
like cool standpoint, it's it's
597
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,600
just amazing.
But I do want to point out
598
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:23,280
Beast's bedside manner because
when episode 3 picks up, he's
599
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,160
doing a science thing, trying to
figure out like which one's the
600
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,080
real one, which one's the clone.
And in the room full of people
601
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,920
including the clone, he's just
like, she's the clone.
602
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:38,640
This is the real one.
And it's like, dude, like was
603
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,080
there.
Not like AI, don't know gentler
604
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:42,920
way.
Or maybe like Cyclops.
605
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,560
I need to like talk to you real
quick.
606
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,560
No.
He's like, we're family, OK?
607
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,080
There are no secrets in family.
Everyone needs to know.
608
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,720
By the way, she's a clone.
Yeah, And he's also like this
609
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,400
Jin laying down.
She's old.
610
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,320
You Not so much.
Yeah, you're not so much
611
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,320
something's up.
I think it's really interesting.
612
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,480
And I'm curious if we're ever,
ever going to find out how long
613
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,880
that they were separated for.
Because I I know, spoiler in the
614
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,920
comics.
This is the cool thing about it,
615
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,240
though.
Like, I know that they told
616
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,200
these stories really briskly,
but the original stories are
617
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,000
there.
So it's cool to like, just go
618
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:19,200
watch them or read them and then
come back to these so you get
619
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,600
like a Cliffs Notes version, but
then you can get the whole
620
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,080
thing.
I really recommend reading that.
621
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,120
That's kind of cool stuff.
Scott, not so much.
622
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:30,760
But what's it called the
relationship between like Gene
623
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,200
and Scott and everything he His
first marriage to Gene was to
624
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,560
the clone.
So, like, there's like a running
625
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,600
joke of, like, is he going to
have to have another wedding?
626
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,240
Is it still legally binding?
Right.
627
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,920
So it's like, when were they
replaced?
628
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,320
Was it after the Dark Phoenix
saga?
629
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,680
And when was that?
How did she get captured
630
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,360
exactly?
I missed the Sinestar.
631
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,280
Well, she faints a lot, so
that's true.
632
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:54,760
Kind of easy.
Fell out of the sky.
633
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,120
He's like, I got one, I have a
backup, don't worry.
634
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:02,120
I got the sleepy one.
Yes, does I miss the sinestar
635
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,360
who who I feel like did not get
enough screen time?
636
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,960
But he got just enough, though.
I feel like just for like a
637
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,520
little intro, he was terrifying.
He's not a.
638
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:14,920
Baby and and green Goop I.
Love that visual of him just
639
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,480
being like, fuck them kids.
That is the most buoyant baby
640
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,000
I've ever seen in my life.
Because no matter what, that
641
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,760
baby is just floating in the
middle.
642
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,000
I don't know.
I don't know how buoyancy works,
643
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,960
but.
I really loved it.
644
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,320
I think I loved what they're
doing with some of these
645
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,360
characters because they have the
whole history, right, of the
646
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,240
comics up until now to work
with.
647
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,640
So like, I'm curious to see how
far in that we get.
648
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:44,360
There was one joke and this is
more for like kind of Kirkoa era
649
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,200
X-Men fans.
But the when Jubilee was trying
650
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,400
to figure out sunspots, powers,
and she's like, do you like, do
651
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,480
you make like Gold balls or like
whatever?
652
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,200
And she's like, that'd be weird.
There is literally a character
653
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,720
that makes Gold balls.
Then like, he was a joke for a
654
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,000
while because it's like, what do
you do with that?
655
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:05,200
But in Kirkoa era, he's used
with the five mutants that can,
656
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:06,760
like, bring people back from the
dead.
657
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:11,320
So like his gold, like embryo
balls or whatever, it's like
658
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:12,800
that's where the clones get made
in.
659
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,120
But so it was just like a fun
little Easter egg there.
660
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,239
Throughout this whole thing,
there's so many Easter.
661
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:19,239
Eggs.
I even feel like that
662
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,239
conversation is an Easter egg,
because in the first episode of
663
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,320
the original series, Storm and
Rogue are talking Jubilee.
664
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,800
And you know, Storm is like, I
am mistress of the elements.
665
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,239
My name is Storm and she's like,
my name is Jubilee.
666
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,320
I blow stuff up.
My name doesn't make sense like
667
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,159
yours.
But they're pretty, yeah.
668
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:41,600
Back to.
Dancing.
669
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,320
So back to really horny and sexy
moments.
670
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:50,040
I'm kind of curious about Logan
and Morph.
671
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,320
Let's talk about Logan for a
second.
672
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,639
There's a couple scenes with
Logan and more specifically one
673
00:34:56,639 --> 00:35:01,000
I'm loving Morph so much.
He they have not gotten a lot of
674
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:06,280
screen time yet and I want more.
But there's the scene where he
675
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,840
goes to Logan and Logan's in the
tree and like, he has chips and
676
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,360
beer and he's like, oh let's you
know, hang out and he's like,
677
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,040
no, then he's like, I'll turn it
to stay routine.
678
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,480
He's like, let's wrestle.
Right.
679
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,640
And they wrestle.
And then in the third episode
680
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:22,160
when he goes to take a shower
and short King Harry King Logan
681
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:28,880
is butt naked in the shower.
Morph like very like confidently
682
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,000
and like without like seeming
like they were going to push any
683
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,280
boundaries was like, do you need
me to help you with those hard
684
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:39,080
to reach spots?
I was like wait, this is like
685
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,160
beyond consent.
This is past consent.
686
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,120
Of like there is consent.
Well, like what I mean is like
687
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,880
consent had already happened and
this is after that.
688
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:52,840
So I'm like, are they like, do
they kiss?
689
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,120
They might be canoodling a
little bit, because let me tell
690
00:35:55,120 --> 00:36:00,200
you something, they are anytime
they can rip Wolverine's costume
691
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,880
up and show that hairy bot of
his OK.
692
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,800
It's not just chest hair, Mama.
It goes on the shoulders down,
693
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,520
the arms on the back.
He is our little bear cub short.
694
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,720
King.
It's in the intro, like he's in
695
00:36:11,720 --> 00:36:13,640
his underwear.
He's in his underwear and then
696
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:15,880
his costume comes on, which it
seems like it should be the
697
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:20,240
reverse, but it happens.
Speaking of the intro, weird
698
00:36:20,240 --> 00:36:23,400
that we didn't even mention it,
The intro, the song, it is back
699
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,560
and it is better than ever.
It hit so hard.
700
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,640
It's amazing.
Just I felt like I had to say
701
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,880
that at some point during this.
We have watched all three of
702
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:39,120
these twice and we watched the
theme song every single time I
703
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:40,360
There is no skipping.
Well, no.
704
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,720
I'm mad at Disney for even
having a skip button.
705
00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:45,480
You don't put the skip button.
Not for this on that at all.
706
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:46,280
No.
No.
707
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,960
And also the end credits where
they do that thing where you
708
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,600
never see all of them get
selected and spin around.
709
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,600
They do that on purpose.
I every single one.
710
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,520
And I've watched it twice.
I've been like, oh, they're
711
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:58,920
going to do new ones when you
pick up.
712
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,000
Oh, it's the same ones.
Nope.
713
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,800
And torture you let.
Me.
714
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,840
I know what their powers are and
their names I want to see.
715
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,360
That would be cool as a
screensaver, wouldn't it?
716
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:09,400
It would.
Be right.
717
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,160
Oh my God, I would love that.
Are screensavers even a thing
718
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,160
anymore?
Yeah, I have one of jellyfish.
719
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,240
Oh, lovely.
Yeah, mine, I guess.
720
00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:20,000
Anyone who just goes to sleep,
listener or watchers, you know
721
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,800
how to do that.
Just like, send it to us.
722
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,840
I love that.
We need to know how.
723
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,880
So if you could, I feel like
this is going to be a question
724
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,480
that's going to be, if you're
listening to this on Spotify or
725
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,360
even on whatever, you can just
comment at us or e-mail us or
726
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,800
whatever.
If you could, in these three
727
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:42,520
episodes, be any of the mutants,
any one of them, which one would
728
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:46,000
you be?
Because remember, Storm lost
729
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,480
their powers, right?
Now I know, I know, I know.
730
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:54,320
Don't don't yell at me.
I think, well, my God, I'm going
731
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:55,800
with Gambit.
Wow.
732
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,680
That's interesting.
Because, like, right now, he's
733
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:00,920
really not in the drama.
He bakes.
734
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,360
That's why you want.
Baking.
735
00:38:02,720 --> 00:38:07,280
He's wearing crop tops, OK?
He has a beautiful hair, head of
736
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,240
ginger hair.
So I'm because I for a minute I
737
00:38:10,240 --> 00:38:13,520
was going between Wolverine and
Beast because of the hairy
738
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,680
thing, but I think I'm going
gamped.
739
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,680
No, you could be anybody.
You don't have to be who you
740
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,480
think you are.
No, I'm well.
741
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,840
I just feel drawn to them.
I see.
742
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,240
Because you know, but I'm not a
I'm not a smart as beast anyway,
743
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,360
Who would you be?
Oh man, Jean Grey.
744
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:32,520
No Madeline Pryor.
The Goblin Queen.
745
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,080
I mean, I don't even care.
It's like she is sexy as hell
746
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:37,840
and she's like, I'm the Goblin
Queen.
747
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,800
It's like yes you are.
Yeah, I'm like, I don't know
748
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:46,480
why, but yeah, I don't get it.
But yes, you absolutely are.
749
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,760
Sure, we can name ourselves
whatever we want.
750
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,160
Yeah, me too.
I'm the I'm the Cream Puff King.
751
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:53,040
Like, whatever.
I don't.
752
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:57,920
Know where you're going.
Thanks, guys.
753
00:38:58,240 --> 00:39:01,520
Real bad.
No.
754
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,520
OK, so I I'd probably be Beast.
I just love that he's like doing
755
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,720
his own thing.
Yeah, and like, he does really
756
00:39:07,720 --> 00:39:10,320
cool stuff, but like most of the
time he's just like tinkering on
757
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,560
his.
He puts on his classical music.
758
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,160
Yeah, and puts on his.
I love.
759
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:18,680
I love that he just puts on his
coat and he just still is in
760
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,160
underwear.
I love One of the first times we
761
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,520
see him is when Sunspot is like
resting and recuperating and
762
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,480
he's walking on the ceiling
towards him.
763
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:31,520
He just, you know, the thing
about Beast is that he is Beast.
764
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,560
Yeah, he is truly himself and he
has accepted who he is.
765
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,360
Oh yeah, you know what I mean?
He's just living in it.
766
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,760
Yeah, I love.
I love him.
767
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,600
I love that because I feel like
I would want that life of like
768
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,080
because I always like to work on
things, but I feel like I don't
769
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:46,760
ever have enough time and stuff
like that.
770
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,840
And it feels like he can always
just work on whatever he wants
771
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:51,960
and also just be enough
underwear and a coat.
772
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,040
Like, that's amazing.
Yeah, so blue.
773
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,360
That's so cool.
Yeah, he's like, oh, you can.
774
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,520
What did he say?
You can call me my Gnome De
775
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,600
Bloom, beast or whatever.
He said.
776
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,920
It was so good.
I love when he's also like
777
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,560
quoting random things and he's
like Mark Twain.
778
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,200
He's like, I'm not smart.
It's like, I've read that two
779
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:12,360
beasts.
Like, calm down.
780
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:16,400
No, he's like, listen, I got Mr.
and Mr. Summers fighting all the
781
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,680
time.
I got to hold it together.
782
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,000
I'm the only one.
OK, one of the last sexy moments
783
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,840
that I'll talk about is won.
The fight scene between the
784
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:30,000
Goblin Queen and Magneto was
breathtakingly amazing.
785
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,960
The amount of colors and
movement and everything was just
786
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:34,520
so.
Costume gets torn up.
787
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,920
That's where I was going.
Thanks for ruining my last sexy
788
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:40,640
moments.
Yes, when he lands on the ground
789
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:44,480
and it's for two seconds and
he's just kind of bare chest
790
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,240
ripped as hell.
And I'm just like, why you guys?
791
00:40:48,240 --> 00:40:51,520
We know he's already sexy and
you just had to take off some of
792
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:55,120
his costume.
They said look at his nipple and
793
00:40:55,120 --> 00:41:00,160
we were like.
But that that scene was so cool,
794
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,240
and I love that they were able
to showcase Madeline Pryor's
795
00:41:03,240 --> 00:41:06,760
powers that are outside of Gene,
because she has those powers
796
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,480
that Gene has, but she has those
like extra like sorcery and.
797
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,920
Yeah, she can like hypnotize
people to fight for her.
798
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,000
Sorry morph.
So, so good.
799
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,880
Which is really sad for Morph
because that's like his whole
800
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:18,200
thing.
It's like he was get napped and
801
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,040
then tortured by some Mr.
Sister.
802
00:41:21,240 --> 00:41:24,240
Yeah, and it's like, oh, you're
fucked up, But we got to see
803
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:30,000
Magic and Lady Deathstrike and
Sidelock and Blossis and couple
804
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:31,320
other people that I'm forgetting
at the moment.
805
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,360
But I was just who was.
The one that raised all their
806
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,240
hands.
That's funny.
807
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,040
That was really fun.
I might be getting Mortal Kombat
808
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,280
characters mixed up.
Definitely.
809
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:42,720
I don't know if you definitely
are, but I could see that.
810
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,880
All right.
So yeah, I mean to wrap this up
811
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,440
and to make this like a review.
Fantastic.
812
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,760
I think that this is like, this
validates, Like, how do I say it
813
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,960
like, this validates the
nostalgia, right?
814
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,640
It's like, this is the thing
that I hope that they do because
815
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,320
there's so many, like, legacy
projects that they do like, it's
816
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:07,000
a continuation of the thing that
happened 50 years ago.
817
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:11,360
And it never works out well.
This is working out in every
818
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,080
possible way.
I know they have so many more
819
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:18,560
episodes to do, but if they keep
it up with like this, I think it
820
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:23,200
might be like the best thing
Marvel's ever made since the MCU
821
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,120
was pretty.
Wowzers I.
822
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,600
Hey, I'm just saying, it's just,
it has everything that I want.
823
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,240
Yeah, The X-Men.
I I know I'm with you, the
824
00:42:31,240 --> 00:42:31,880
X-Men.
Really.
825
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,960
You know, we've been living in
The Avengers world for so long
826
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,240
with the MCU.
It's so exciting to get back to
827
00:42:37,240 --> 00:42:41,040
the X-Men and I think that we're
getting into our first two
828
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,760
parter, I believe coming.
Up to it's like.
829
00:42:45,240 --> 00:42:47,560
It's like A2 parter and then I
think there's like a three or A4
830
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,160
parter towards the end of the
season.
831
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,720
They had to do.
Well, now it's officially, yeah,
832
00:42:52,720 --> 00:42:55,240
X-Men from the. 90s because
like, that was the thing that
833
00:42:55,240 --> 00:42:59,560
was unprecedented about kids.
Television was that, like, it
834
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,440
was multiple parts.
Like you had to watch the
835
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,280
multiple parts to understand
that.
836
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,640
So cool.
I just, I just love that they're
837
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,360
doing it.
And some of the names of the
838
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,680
episodes coming up, I'm like,
oh, they're doing that one, OK.
839
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,720
Let me also let me say something
go ahead world.
840
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:20,240
How is it that I get to work at
around 8:00 AM and there are
841
00:43:20,240 --> 00:43:25,400
already ass loads of spoilers?
Yeah, I mean smokes.
842
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,240
There are.
The unfortunate thing is that
843
00:43:27,240 --> 00:43:30,080
it's not coming out at like
normal time, our time and
844
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,320
everybody's time.
And there's people that just
845
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,000
it's like midnight and they're
like, oh, I get to watch it and
846
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,080
it's like 3:00 AM our time.
Stop it.
847
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,080
OK, just we just can't go on
social media until we watch it.
848
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:43,560
That's like my job.
I know it.
849
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,880
If you got, sorry.
So I always have to like, kind
850
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,520
of like watch something and I'm
like, OK, I got it because I'd
851
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,400
be mad if I get spoiled.
The Goblin Queens.
852
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,520
I got spoiled with her
transformation.
853
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,840
Yeah, her magic, JoJo.
Her magical girl transformation
854
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,760
was the first thing that came up
on social media.
855
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,160
And I was like, well, I mean, I
knew she was Madeline Pryor, but
856
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,160
like, I wanted to see.
It yeah, I wanted to be like I
857
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,840
was right.
I I'm very excited to see where
858
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,040
they go.
They have packed so much story
859
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,400
and so much stuff into 330
minute episodes.
860
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:18,560
I'm excited.
I I'm here for it.
861
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,080
We have quite a few to do, so
we're going to be releasing
862
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:22,880
these on Saturday mornings.
Get your.
863
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:27,400
Favorite Serial?
I think that's it, right?
864
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,080
Any final thoughts?
No, that's it.
865
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,880
It's just a lot of fun.
The nostalgia point is just
866
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,680
overflowing.
It makes me want to start
867
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:38,520
collecting action figures again.
I went through our old our
868
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,240
collectible cards from the
comics, and I was trying to like
869
00:44:41,240 --> 00:44:43,680
piece together the X-Men team.
We didn't have all of them from
870
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,360
like the current like the ones
that are in this one, but we
871
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,000
have most of them.
I might post them.
872
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,760
We'll see.
But you know, I love those
873
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:50,840
cards.
They're so fun.
874
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:51,880
Yeah.
All right.
875
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,080
So till next week.
We'll see you next Saturday.
876
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:56,720
Goodbye.
Bye.
