I still don’t get it lol

Who’s the 2nd Jean, Mystique?

How about that.

It's Madelyne Pryor would be my guess (or the Jean is actually Pryor).

I think it's great so far. But, why does it look like X-men '87 with the hair styles, clothing styles and film grain? Reminding me of the Bionic Six.

I saw the first two episodes and the redone intro suuuucccks, it felt flat and very flash-animation like and the reworked theme sounds like a cheap videogame midi cover, hated it.

Thankfully that's pretty much all my complaints as the show itself is fantastic and I really enjoyed every minute of both episodes so far! I was really worried just by the intro that it the show will be cheap, lazy and full of nostalgia bait but that's not the case at all. Although they could use less of the "Me, my X-Men" line since that's so lame.

For a seasoned comic fan such as myself, this weeks episode was nuts. They essentially crammed years of continuity into 33 min. Crazy!

Love the reveal at the end. The surprises are few and far between (being intimate with the source material), but it’s no less fun seeing them surface.

Disney/marvel didn’t have to go this hard on this show. It could have been a crappy nostalgia bait show but this is the first time since I think wandavision that I waited impatiently for a marvel episode to drop .

I always said xmen is better than the avengers. The fights and animation are so good and the way they balance out and showcase each xmen’s skill is amazing.

Gosh we really had like years of crap xmen content from fox or things that focused on wolverine. It’s refreshing to get stuff like this.

Really great 3rd episode and the writers should be commended for literally having zero "Remember this?" or "He said the thing!" moments all these shameless nostalgia pandering properties do nowadays <cough> these dumb Ghostbusters sequels <cough>.

Since this is getting good feedback so far and if it does throughout this season, is this due to the recently fired creator/producer/writer? Now that's he's gone, would you think the next season will be the usual disney crap?

DeMayo had already finished writing Season 2 so we're good for another season at least.

It’s a miracle that this show is so good.

That last episode of OMG. probably one of the greatest I’ve ever seen probably in my top three X-Men episodes

It started off so lighthearted too.

Oh ****, it's Wednesday!

Oh ****, it's Wednesday!

And you’re gonna wish it wasn’t.

 

[ironwez20]

Sheesh. This is probably the best marvel show in a long while

 

[ironwez20]

Man that ending was absolutely insane. This is exactly why the xmen are always above the avengers imo

 

[Jay Virtual]

Just finished the last episode and it was absolutely terrific. I've been sick of superhero stuff since Endgame, I felt many of these adaptations are just samey and ubiquitous (except The Batman) and I think this is the most I've been interested in a Marvel property in a long time. I'm so glad they didn't just rely on "remember this?" moments like most other nostalgic properties do and actually have a worthwhile story to tell. Totally invested from this point on.

Whatever DeMayo did...who cares, bring him back!

 

[ironwez20]

Yea what did he do that was so bad ? Make this show good and raise the bar for superhero animation and marvel? Bring the dude back! Who cares if he has an only fans
