I hope Storm will get more screentime, but it has been amazing so far

maybe we're thinking of different characters, cuz like...uh, i'm talking about a woman.

that said, they did seem to put Wolverine on fucking roids xD

I can't say I don't believe you, cuz I've seen this even within anime shit from the same studio - but like...it was consistent af back in the 90s.

You're missing out, we got a scene of her practically nude and she got felt up pretty good in the most recent episode. The envelope has been pushed very far for a Disney cartoon show.

I feel like this would've gotten even more attention, for the exact opposite reason, all things considered.

bruh, shit got real in episode 5! like damn! O_o
Ive been very much enjoying it. Can anyone clarify exactly what rogues powers are? Its been a while since Ive seen the movies, but in those it seemed like she could absorb other peoples powers and use them.

But Im not sure Ive seen her do that in this series. What specifically are her abilities?
yes, enjoying it greatly. me and my bro have been watching the episodes together over the phone, which is awesome. we watched TAS together as kids all the time.

i do wish we were getting more than just 10 episodes though. a couple of the episodes so far have seemed really rushed, and could have done better with some slower pacing and being given multi-episode arcs, or even a full episode, as in the case of the 2-episode split in episode 4.
It don't matter. None of this matters.

She can do that, and does it just by touch even if she doesnt want to. She can also fly and is super humanly strong and durable, but they didnt go with that in the movies.
I've only seen the first 2 episodes. Waiting till they are all out so I can binge it all at once. That being said the first one is still my favorite one. That scene with Storm and the sentinels was badass.

Thank you for the clarification.

Rogue's super strength and flight aren't part of her mutant powers. She got those by absorbing them from Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel), which badly injured Carol and left Rogue with those powers semi-permanently.

Its the same quality. Just different levels of intensity. One is setup, the other a shit hit the fan episode.

I haven't seen it (yet), but I'd probably spend the whole time bitching about how Rogue isn't hot enough - despite her being significantly more attractive than in the live action movies or Evolution.

It's not just the loss in cup sizes or the complete erasure of her ass (which was only really one scene -- Rogue's a boob queen). The hair and outfit look a little muted. I hate to get into waifu wars, but there's legitimately some animator out there who thinks that Jean Grey, the Ginny Weasley of comic book redheads, is better than Rogue? Or that some Jean-faced goblin queen could ever match her? Get the fuck outta here with that.

No actual spoilers were in that post. I just blackboxed it because I knew a lot of people would sooner skip over that post than read it. I had to let it out and I've let it out. So, bye for now.

I disagree. Episode 4 could've been great, but the pacing was ultimately the biggest contention for me because they tried to stuff 2 different plot points in a single episode and none of the bigger moments in those episodes landed for me. I honestly think if they put those 2 plot points into two separate episodes, it would've turned out soo much better but I get that they're limited on episode count.
DI MOLTO!
'I have not watched it'

-- Streaming only
-- I already know what happened to most of that cast after the first cartoon ended (especially Jubilee)
-- It is easier for me to conclude that this cartoon is for the people who vaguely watched the original

As a matter of fact, from the rumblings I heard since the first cartoon ended, my favorite X-men Rogue is either dead or became so powerful she is some other worldly being. That is why I'm fine with not revisiting this, among other reasons.
Yep. Also need to catch up on recent reading, but I'm following the mini series comic bridging the previous series and this one.

huh? why on earth are you "concluding" that? this literally picks up right where the original cartoon left off. you seem to be fundamentally mistaken about what this series is.

That would have not been made had there not been a company trying to get people to subscribe to a streaming service.

Not mistaken. I know what this 'sequel' is, but also realize this has taken way too long since the first cartoon ended and several comics (and games) have done their own interpretations of the characters since then. I didn't even bring up the many things I've seen Cyclops doing since the first cartoon ended.

none of this has anything to do with this series. you're being really weird about this for some reason, lol, and you are just coming off as really cringey.

The original show is still a separate continuity from any game or comic or other show. You've seen different versions of Cyclops do other things.

Pretty much everyone who has said they haven't seen it, is basically making shit up as if they've watched it.

None of the X-men in 97 have displayed any real power buff so far. Other than Gambit, everything that's been shown, particularly Rogue, was already in the previous show. I'm gonna assume you're talking about some comic storyline, which doesn't matter in relation to the show, but whatever.

How long do you think Gamefaqs as a message board has been here having discussions about what happens in the comic books? It was here that someone had to tell me that Cyclops wasn't entirely blind when up to that point I thought he was.

I don't mind learning stuff, but I also admit I don't keep up with comics or try to keep up with my favorite characters past the media they are featured in. I already prefer video games because you can play them alone without asking people who aren't as 'geeky' to sit down and get into the lore.
So far it is amazing.

Ive been pleasantly surprised. Some things i like better than the original, some less, but its mostly faithful to the old show and that's all i really hoped for.

I like Morph getting more screentime and how they use him as a bit of fan service character, like they thought "we might not get to use Psylocke in this series, so let's have Morph turn into her for a few moments during a fight"
He's also used to reference parts of the original comics version of some of the episodes. Like how he fit the role of Magik for the Inferno adaptation.

its also nice that you dont have to have watched the original show to follow this.

surely it helps to add some context but at the time this show aired, i just catched it whenever it was on. its not like i watched it all the way through. lol

would be nice if Disney Plus added the original series tho. heck might as well!

Well obivously no. Who was watching a Saturday morning cartoon back then and thought past all of that once the credits rolled? Most of us (then) just saw it as a cartoon.

Venom became one of my favorites solely due to the 90's Spiderman cartoon. I know there are other versions of him and I know about the Sony films, but after that cartoon went off the air, I was one of those that said "Oh well.."
