This has nothing to do with Krakoa but a story about how the mass destruction of this island and its people, it was here that Emma Frost survived thanks to discovering her second mutan power.
i don't know who Cable meant when he said "he's coming"... who or what mutant villain is behind this??
@@therandombits4315the Master Mold-esque 3 headed wild sentinel is likely what Cable was referring to.
@@ensvenskateist3564it's Krakoa-esque in theme only (prosperity, a council, a gala) so you're right that it's specifically adapting the Genoshan massacre by wild sentinels (which should have been what Coy referenced first, but maybe the fresher mutant-island story of the past few years is what he's more familiar with).
Another great video as always!
Dude… this literally may have been one of the best episodes of TELEVISION I’ve ever seen
yes!, finally soemone that feels the way i do about it, respect , that shit went hard
That episode will be legendary in 10 years time.
My day won't be normal. I can't get over this episode. Gambit my favorite too. Holy moly
This thing was upsettingly good, my only criticisms of which are that the episode could have been longer and the dialogue a little more natural
Fax
This was both the best day and the worst day for Gambit fans
Mostly worst, like: "WHY DID HE DIEEEEEE" kinda worst. Like he died after... what do they call it again... being c*cked. He handled it really mature as one could ever hope. Sad thing is that Rogue did choose him at the end. But at least he went with a boom, what a chad
I feel like the production team knows they really only have a couple seasons at most to finalize the series from back when (especially considering the pump+dump turnover of the streaming era)
I’m totally appreciating the dramatic weight they’re offering this stuff
💯
@@kamishin7135 it's comics (adjacent). He'll be back. So honestly I'd say in the end it will be mostly best. Showing what he is capable of if he goes all out and isn't being the light-hearted charmer that day.
Bro you nailed it. Peep my username 😂 longtime fan. I feel like I’m happy that they made him have his “I am iron man” moment because in the comics and old animated series he was mainly a side character and comic relief. But the die hards of the comics know he’s got alpha/omega level power capability but just doesn’t want the responsibility lol so this moment was him finally stepping up. What a way to go out. Butter sweet
"And yet you allow so many of them to become terrorists..."
Magneto's wit is fucking godlike this series.
gets his heart broken, gives her the space she needs, saves her from herself, saves everyone with the sacrifice play.... Gambit
he was always my favorite of the xmen, if this is his swan song (i highly doubt it is, but if it is) he went out like a true hero
i think he is still alive. One, he hasn't become Omega level yet. 2, His only ability shouldn't killing him. the fact that he wasn't vaporize, I think he heart rate is just really really low and rogue mistaken him for dead. I'm hoping he is just in a coma
@@rustyshield Gambit doesn't 'become' an omega level mutant. It's just a potential he had at one point that he straight up got lobotomized to have taken away. His omega-ness is just an oddity of his backstory rather than something that he ever really deals with in story for the most part. Though who knows, maybe they'll give us his fight with new son at some point.
Either way I'd be shocked if he was gone permanently. either he's alive like you said though I doubt it given rogue touched him. Her powers wouldn't care if he was in a coma. More likely is simply that Cable finds a way to undo all this. You don't randomly have a time traveling savior show up.
This was a classic Gambit storyline because it establishes, as so often happens with him, that under his suave morally grey thief exterior he is INCREDIBLY heroic and surprisingly emotionally mature.
Saves everyone with the sacrifice play : "Have no fear"♦️♟️ "Gambit is here"
The nerve of Jean being upset with Scott for having a long distance conversation with his baby's mama while she was kissing on Logan. The drama in this show is top notch.
but people told me this show is finally giving Scott respect. So that was a lie
Madelyne kissed him like they had been doing that way before
That's what made Jean pissed
And thats the thing that made her interrupt their scene
Jea is clearly confused due to her memories too so she isn't really mentally okay either
It's a mess for all 3 that's really non of their fault
I say Scott take Madelyn Logan take Jean and they call it a day cause this too much😂
BIG FACTS
I mean it wasn't just a long distance convo they're having a psychic affair lol
I cried!!!!! I thought of indigenous communities, and no matter how much treaties happened, this was always the outcome.
You are not the only one. This series pulls you in that world.
me too lol 😢
Ew... Cringe....
@@yellow242Really? That’s what you have to say about a comment like this
@@yellow242 You literally DO NOT DESERVE the X-Men.
The writer of this episode was in both nightclub shootings in orlando. Apparently he wanted to put the terror that was felt there into this episode. Also the fact that a holocaust survivor fought a nazi robot with a train was amazing.
And used it like a whip in a land where mutants had once been made to work by slave drivers.
This episode went so hard. The relationships, the Cable/ Madeline reunion, Magneto's PTSD flashback to the Holocaust, Gambit's sacrifice. I was at a loss for words afterwards.
Not to mention, you can actually see the watcher in the background when the fireworks go off
@@zeldagameryt4018what? I didn't notice that!
@@rodrigobarba930 Yeah, he’s there if you look close enough. Which now means The Watcher, Madame Web, and The Beyonder now exist in this universe
Gambit’s line “Remember it” from 90s was bitter sweet. My favourite X-man better return, but if he doesn’t…..he went out a warrior! Respect ♠️♣️♦️♥️
And as a savior😢
He'll be back. Guarantee it.
He will
he didnt needd to go out at all. it's just that the writing is so bad in this show they failed to give Gambit any intelligence.
Shocking!!! I hope he’ll come back!
"Your heart may beat for me but I can't feel it. "
And then,
"I can't feel you. " While making contact.
Didn't think they could make his death hit any harder, yet she delivered this line!
THE TRAGIC SITUACION OF ROGUE MISTAKES regarding love are so deep and moving. FIRST there are the retorics about Gambit and Rogue relationship. ROGUE saying "I cant touch you, so I cant feel you", but Remy saying "THERE ARE DEEPER THINGS THAN SKIN TOUCH TO FEEL", also the fact KURT told Gambit "HE FELT GAMBIT AND ROGUE SOULS TOUCHES EACH OTHER THROUGH EYES". Just for Rogue to realize that when she Touches Magneto "THAT DOESNT FEEL AS DEEPER AS REMYS FEELINGS". Just to at the end, when she finally touches Remy's Skin, the one thing she tought it was required "to feel him", SHE NOTICES SHE CAN'T FEEL HIM ANYMORE, BECAUSE HIS SOUL IS GONE 😭😭😭😭... so tragic OMG...
@@shalotstage Well described, my fella
@@shalotstagedamn deep, my dude!!!
😢
Shed a tear!
That part broke me, I was on the edge the Whole time but THAT line is what got the tears going 😢
@@shalotstageOMG, THIS 😢
That ending. This was like X-Men's version of the Red Wedding.
when Gambit said "Remember it" my heart broke in two. and then when Rogue said she couldn't feel him in the end, my heart shattered into a million pieces. this was the best episode of X-Men I have ever seen and I'm not exaggerating. btw, I love the matching shirts, fellas! 🥰
it was so anime. Reminded me of Naruto... self sacrifice, with some of those hidden leaf ninja.
@@rustyshieldbest type of animation 🤷🏽♂️
I loved the anime feel to this. And I just bawled at the end 😭
Gosh. I am so happy this show has turned out so great! This episode was effing amazing.
"Remember it." That throwback line hit me like a freaking truck. Gambit went out like a true warrior. I hope it's not really his end and he manages to come back.
Same my guy.
Gambit went out like a G. Damn.
I dont think we will see the last of gambit this season.
he's coming back lol they're not gonna kill off magneto.
It’s the comic book way
Gambit went out in style, that line hit right in the feels
This was a very emotional episode.😢
@@hamhockbeans ending with Rouge like that, and Gambit never knew Rogue chose him. 😭
The names Gambit.... remember it.
@@Dravakinyeh he did.
She came back to fight alongside him, not Magneto, remember?
Gambit was smilin straight thru- he got his girl back.
“We will not shall live or days, wondering if we could’ve saved more.” was such a beautiful line. What incredibly written show. My god. I got absolutely CHILLS AND EMOTIONs FROM THAT.
For 32 years, my dreams of hearing an 'Ace of Base' song on an X-Men show have finally come to fruition.
As someone who grew up on the original X-Men series, comics, and Ace of Base, this episode could have peaked when Happy Nation came on and I would have been happy. And then it just kept getting better.
I knew it I heard it somewhere and my best guess was from "Ace of Base".
Never heard of Ace of Base before this episode but ive been playingHappy Nation on repeat since i watched this episode. Whoever put that song in the soundtrack for this episode needs a raise because the whole sequence when that song was playing was amazing
Ace of Base ruled the 90s. Loved, and still love their music. This choice of song was perfect.
@@twocylinder6964they have like 4 banger songs.
24:42 What a line!
“I can’t feel you.”
Giving the WandaVision vibes with that line. Wanda was also grieving over her lover’s body when she spoke that line.
Amazing Episode!!!
That line broke me! Gambit is my favorite X-Men
I understood that reference
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I through that too 😢
As soon as Cable showed up, I knew something was up. By the time this episode finished, my jaw was wide open. What a show!
Same omg what an episode
I freaked out when I saw the Watcher in the sky ... I'm still freaked out lol
@@askani21What?? is that the fade of something (not sure) in the sky before the fireworks??
Magneto saying “hab keine angst” was so beautiful 😢can’t stop thinking about it
Weird how that translated it though.
It means “have no fear” - not “don’t be afraid”. The sentiment is equivalent. But it literally means “have no fear”.
“Have no fear” is better. Either way sentiment in the scene was awesome.
It still breaks my heart. Calls back to the 2nd episode when Magneto promised Leech he would never be afraid again. And I can’t imagine the weight of guilt for sending them to Genosha, believing they would be safe there.
That line from night crawler: There is no love without sin. For love is measured against how many sins you can forgive. Or something like that. Right up there with Vision's line about love and grief
The way rogue says “I can’t feel you” was the same way storm said “I can’t feel it” referring to the weather
And Wanda in Wandavision
with the additional irony of Rogue finally being able to physically touch Gambit but no longer being able to feel his love or emotional presence totally heartbreaking!
When Rogue touches someone, she literally feels their memories and thoughts in her head, as well as powers if they’re mutants.
The fact that she can’t feel anything from him is just to hammer home that there’s nothing there to feel/absorb from him. He’s dead.
@@filipealbanolmthat one was the best of the three, but rogue saying the same line as Wanda was still cool
Magneto said don’t be afraid in German to the kid is just gut punch
No he didn’t. He said “Have no fear”.
They mistranslated what he said.
@@arc7375brother, that means the exact same thing.
@@arc7375that's straight up the same thing
It has generally an equivalent meaning, yeah. But it literally translates differently.
German is a very specific and precise language. What he literally said was “Have no fear”.
bruh,
'We shall not live wondering if we could have saved more'
Magneto
My favorite character!
The Schindler's List reference...
Magneto whips a sentinel with a train like it was a belt!!!!
that was very cool to watch.
I’d love to the Rogue flying alongside Gambit on a motorcycle in live action. A lot of these scenes are so cinematic
I would love more Rogue meeting captain Marvel.
The visuals of animation are way better than live action could ever hope to be
@@yotuel9064Then she could get her other powers in live action. The super strength and flight.
@@cbfwebs That's the plan.
so glad to see Gambit finally flex his powers to their full potential. it’s such an interesting power set and he’s always held himself back, so seeing him go all out like that was so satisfying
Wait until you find out that Gambit true power. He is an omega level Mutant
Gambit at full power is almost godlike. Gambit was scared of his own power so he had Mr. Sinister take some of it away.
not his full. Gambit became omega level in the comics... not sure if it will happen here. Im thinking it may, cause they cant be killing gambit off so soon.
@@delanohunt6074 Death Gambit incoming. Apocalypse gonna bring all the homies back.
Yeah, it's nice to be reminded every once in a while that he's actually one of the most scarily competent X-men when he decides to drop the charm for a bit.
I always thought Gambit was one of the coolest X-Men. This episode confirms it.
Of all his awesomeness, I particularly enjoyed the use of his scarf as a way to blow up the train.
Seeing Nightcrawler return with Adrian Hough voicing him again was awesome! I really liked the story they told here with Rouge and Gambit here now that Magneto has kind of upended their lives and relationship. And that ending eas insane. "Sugar... I can't feel you " That line hit me like a truck.
His teleporting animation looks so smooth!
I liked that he was more fun, like he is in the comics, vs overly religious. Tho they still had that meaningful exchange about sin and forgiveness.
@@LeVidocqHe’s religious in the comics…
@@Mads97415 yes, but he wasn't always, they just chose to emphasize that in the earlier show
I’m glad they showed Kurt :) I was just wondering last week if they were going to show him
When the song at the Gala started playing I kept wondering why it was so familiar until it became more menacing and Madelyn Pryor had her psychic flash. It was the music from her vision in Gyrichs head! Chefs kiss to details. This episode was dark, wild, and officially one of my favorite x-men episodes of any X-Men series
Seems like her vision wasn't so much a premonition under her own power, but accessing Cable's memories via her connection to baby Nathan (and Gyrich's plan tying into it).
Indeed!
Ace of Base - Happy Nation.
@@arc7375 No wonder the beat and voice sounded familiar.
@@RUclipsWatcher264An amazing 90s song from an amazing 90s band in an amazing 90s-set show!

Thats makes things so much more clear. Damn thats deep.
I dont think he is dead. Probably a coma. That blast should have vaporize him... but it being his energy that caused the blast, I feel the negation of self harm from ones power is taking affect here. Just like how cyclops and havok cant hurt each other with their blasts.
That was some of the best 30mins of tv i've ever seen. This show hits way more than i ever could have expected.
Cable was rushing in because he knew it was a bad call to play Ace of Base during an episode where Erik flashed back to the camps.
Wow!
Bro!
The bittersweet thing is that Maddie probably died in the attack - but her last thought was to recognise that her son had survived his viral infection.
At least she got to meet her son before she died.
I'm just happy someone realized it was ace of bass..it was stressing me out
indeed! very meta, but in a dark way
Emma saw Cyclops in Madelyne’s head and was like, “I got next!”
😂😂😂😂
Scott has a thing for Telepaths, so Emma’s off to a good start! 🤣
died laughing that scene... im such nerd.... 10/10 episode. If the rest of the series is trash... we still will always have this episode.
Astonishing X-Men reference.
Scott & Emma forever! Should always have stayed there, as Morrisson, Whedon, & Bendis all wrote them as equal partners.
@29:30 to be fair to the journalist, she didnt know they had lost their son, thats why when Cyclops said he had no children she was surprised and said she had saw the file
THIS WAS THE MOST ACTION PACKED EMOTIONAL RIDE EVER IN ANIMATION👀 SHEEEESH 😵💫
The parallel between the end of this episode and wandavision of “I can’t feel you.” Insane writing
not being creative is not good writing
@@snappapop3277it is when it fits the situation like a glove. Did you actually watch the episode?
@@snappapop3277 it's called symbolism dumbass, it's quite literally a staple of good writing
@snappapop3277 you of all people don't understand what good writing is. Lol just pure hater
Please don’t compare this to wandavision…that show was absolutely awful…this is actually really really good. Best marvel release since end game.
I noticed the reference with Cyclops, Madelyne Pryor's psychic entanglement with Jean Grey finding out, kinda like that whole drama with Cyclops, Jean, and Emma Frost from the comics. But this time, they switched it up with Madelyne instead of Emma. And Emma's knowing smirk? Total psychic power move, like she's got the inside scoop on everything
Loved it.
Jean can kiss Wolverine, but Scott can`t talk to the mother of his child?!?! Talk about toxic!!
Oh Emma took note of what Madelyne was doing on The astral plane and with that smirk may even try it herself
And during Morrison’s run of New XMen, Emma took onto the astral form of Jean during their affair. So to make it Maddie is just ugh chef’s kiss.
@@RandomNPC001Worse in the comics at least here he still have feelings for his baby momma.
When they said they were bringing back X-Men animated series, I never thought in a million years they'd go to this level production. This is giving me phase 2 vibes, MCU is back. 😢👏🏽👏🏽
24:42 "I can't feel you" Wanda says the same thing after breaking in to S.W.O.R.D. to see Vision in episode 8 of WandaVision.
Iron Man sacrificed himself to save the universe
Loki sacrificed himself to save the Multiverse
Gambit sacrificed himself to save his fellow mutants.
Part of being an x-man is making the ultimate sacrifice
to save that whole island
@@JamesJohnson-lu5kk the X is the their cross to bear.
And in one episode they made Gambit's sacrifice way deeper and more emotional than an entire decade of MCU movies starring Iron Man.
The switch in tones near the end is wild 🪦
they started the ep wayyy too happy lol
They pulled a Darker Tone similar to the marvel Netflix punisher mix with attack on Titan jujitsu Kaisen dark ending.
jfc that last line from Rogue hit like an absolute freight train…went from perfectly stable and just a lil upset but enjoying a normal episode, to instant tears and sobbing in a single sentence. Wildly good direction.
Gambit having the last line before he dies was bad ass
Did you notice The Watcher in the sky before the party? He knew what was about to go down.
+dustinrobles4110
He wasn't there
@@thealjohnsonshow2188he was. At 20 minutes and 40 seconds in they put a faded silhouette of Watcher in the sky before the first fireworks go up.😊
Yes that’s when I knew something big was about to happen
@@Spideymrw pretty much figured something big was about to happen from episode one when they named Genosha. Knowing its fate in the comics, I immediately thought, *"Well this isn't going to end well!"* and sure enough they wasted no time getting to the massacre.
The way it played out I suspect Cable and time travel are going to give it a redo though, ending with a different outcome than the comics side of things. Here's hoping.
@@thealjohnsonshow2188 15:47 That is Watcher in the sky. His silhouette on the left. Barely visible, as it should be.
Jean can kiss Wolverine, but Scott can`t talk to the mother of his child?!?! Talk about toxic!!
He was having a psychic affair for a month, Jean kissed Logan once
He kissed Madelyn in the astral plane too though, not to mention he said he'd still been talking to her for months. It'd be different if they still had their kid, but they don't.
It was years before Scott ever cheated on Jean. She cheated on him multiple times in their relationship.
To be fair though, Scott was “cheating” on Jean with Jean.
Maddie *_is_* Jean.
I don’t think y’all understand toxicity which makes sense. she was just told the most romantic thing that she needed to hear and kissed the man who delivered the thing she needed to hear.
That’s not toxic.
I didn’t expect X-men 97 to straight up make me cry marvel animation is the future
"Happy Nation" is the song played for the dance, and its by Ace of Base. I feel INCREDIBLY old saying this, but that was my JAM as a teen girl back in the late 90s.
This episode shook me to the core. I wasn't expecting to cry, we will never forget the name Gambit 😢
Cable would probably reset this.
that blast probably activated his Omega level powers... I dont think he's dead. Because he does become omega level in the comics
@@RUclipsWatcher264 in the comics genosha was bombarded by sentinels. So, I don't think a reset is happening. I think magneto and those in his sphere survived, cause they didn't show bodies.
@@rustyshield Gambit is dead man. RIP. One day he'll return.
Just finished the episode, as soon as I saw the watcher I was like this is not going to end well, probably my favorite most darkest episode ever
That was a telling sight.
The watcher? How’d I miss that? Where did you see him?
Right before the gala when it shows the night sky, you can see the outline of his head on the left of the screen. @dxnny2727
@@dxnny2727 In the sky, when you have a scene of the stars that then pan down just before the gala, is in the left side.
@@dxnny2727Scroll the XM97 episode to 20 mins 40 seconds or right before and you'll catch his silhouette in the sky right before the first firework goes up before the gala kicks off.
"Happy Nation" is really suitable for this episode.
Overwhelming is an understatement. Xmen 97 is turning out to be the best superhero action adventure show in years
The Genosha E is for Extinction storyline by Grant Morrison was the first X-Men storyline I read, so to see it play out in a show SHOOK me. 10/10
One of the greatest Marvel Television Episode!
I want this exact thing in live action. But it might be impossible, that's how insanely good the visuals in this episode were. The music, the tone, the character development, the action, the story, holy shit.
I’d agree but the Loki season finale takes the spot for me
@@cable7152 live action wishes it could be this good. It just can't compare visually to animation. Live action is held back by the fact that it has to look real.
@@JessAnderson1988Exactly
@@JessAnderson1988 amen
"Remember it." That pierced my soul!
The way Cable said "No, not again" right before he got sucked back in through time makes me think he's been at this trying to go further & further back in time to stop the catastrophe. We might get a future episode where where it shows from Cables perspective, him time traveling repeatedly until he finally can warn the people of Genosha & stop whats to come.
Lads, I legit lost my mind watching this episode. Insanity.
Born in '93 and the X-Men is my literal bible. This episode was not only 10/10 XMTAS, but one of the best episodes of TV I've ever seen.
This is such a tonal shift from last episode, but absolutely impactful stuff. I thought it was a good choice to have Scott lose control during the interview as it sets up the later events of the decimation of Genosha. Mutants have to try and appease humans time and time again, yet they are never truly accepted as an equal sapient being. It was honestly quite hard to watch the attack on Genosha as it felt like a real terrorist attack. So many feels and emotions.
And I also loved the Scott/Madelyne storyline as they deal with the loss of Nathan. I completely understood the “mind cheating.” They both lost a son and Scott knows for sure that Madelyne was the one who carried Nathan in her womb for nine months. He has a lot of pain from when his father abandoned him, and being forced to do that with his own son was very traumatic for him. I think that psychic cheating with Madelyne made so much sense and is an example of a deviation from the source material that actually feels earned and opens up interesting possibilities. It feels so at home given this story. On another note, Wolverine showed a lot of maturity by telling Jean that she “just forgot the rules for a sec.” He didn’t take advantage of her at all. Good stuff.
I’m not big on a lot of romance drama because it usually seems cheap, but I actually thought it was handled well here. Everyone made sense as to why they had such turbulent romantic feelings to the point where it felt earned. The X-Men is very soap operatic, so I get that it needs to be done. I thought they handled it well enough to not be annoying. Watching Rogue’s journey from lamenting not being able to touch Gambit to kissing Magneto and realizing that “some things are deeper than skin” to holding Gambit’s lifeless body in her arms was soul crushing 😭. She ended up losing both of her paramours.
And Magneto speaking german to Leech as they were about to die 😭😭😭
This is some of the best work that Marvel has put out and hopefully the MCU can handle the X-Men like this.
Can’t wait for the next episode.
This is definitely a test run for the MCU.
It hit me the same way, as suddenly I felt like I was experiencing a real life attack and my body couldn't get rid of that emotion
last episode was following two separate different story arc. This episode was also a separate 2 story arcs.
Funnily enough, although it looks like a tonal shift from what Beau said about this episode it makes total sense. Beau links this episode to the effects of experiencing the shock of 09/11 growing up. Deeper than that, though, is how he connects the Genosha storyline to the real world attack on the gay club Pulse, where he used to go back in the day. Dozens of gay men died at that attack, and Beau really managed to make the Genosha attack feel more personal on the cartoon than it was in the comics.
So, the Motendo episode according to him is about the way Jubilee had to grow up, leave the nostalgia behind, and deal with the real world, just like he was forced to grow up after these traumatic experiences. In this way, although it looks like a tonal shift, Motendo was sort of in the perfect spot before this episode.

That’s a great point. Gives last week’s episode much more meaning in hindsight. Brilliant work.
The cherry on top was that Gambit alone was able to take out that Godzilla Sentinel when no one else could, and while being impaled!
What an episode… first thing in the morning this sure as hell woke me up. We know Cable is involved so there will be timeline changes which most likely bring Magneto and Gambit back as I can’t imagine they’d kill of Magneto and Gambit, Magneto alone is too large a character for the story and the entire plot of the shows return with him taking Prof X’s place to just kill off.
I am in shock. I have goosebumps on my arms. The attention to detail, the echo of sound from the sentinel, the use of Gambits power, the German language and I believe hebrew, the reflection in motorcycle mirror, the eyes capturing the dispair. The emotion felt. I dont know what to say. It was truly the most amazing. I cant put words together
On Gambit: I think that part of his lore is that he is actually an Omega-level mutant. But out of fear of his own powers (based on a future timeline where he destroys everything), he intentionally has Sinister limit his abilities. All-time favourite Marvel vs Capcom character, all-time favourite X-Men
Yup! In an alternate future, he becomes the New Sun. His abilities are super crazy. Remy eventually is able to beat his future counterpart, and as you said, had Sinister weaken his abilities so that he'd never become that villain.
MvC: royal flush.
Here we go again with the Gambit is omega level. Give it up already. He was alpha at best. He wasn't one in the past and he still isn't in the present. Even the Hickman's reboot which literally made the omega level classification so cheap and meaningless didn't include him on the list.
Nuff respect, you did your homework. Remy always had a big heart and he rather keep things simple than have all the attention of home. He always the one to get blame but honestly more loyal than a dog. He can take a L and still win😊
MvC: Come oooon Monamine 🔥
This is the greatest depiction of an X-Men story on screen like ever. Certainly one of the best scripted TV moments of the past decade. Incredible triumph.
And Professor X's last words to Gambit in TAS are hitting like a mack truck now: "How often must the scoundrel prove himself a hero before he believes it himself."
facts, this is literally comic book panels coming to life.
its been years since something has made me anticipate a week going by to watch something
The minute I heard that song play I thought it sounded like ACE OF BASE, looked it up after and yep. 90s ENERGY ON POINT!
Happy Nation. It also sounded on episode 1.
@@jaimepe4765Jean and Maddie’s psychic shock was a memory from Cable who already lived the event.
In Episode 1, when using Cerebro, Maddie (thinking she’s Jean still) awakes in a barren wasteland, and a face in the wind flies towards her saying “not again”. This is what Cable said in this episode.
Jean and Maddie got the psychic feedback because even though Maddie is his mother, she and Jean are identical and biologically share a connection to Cable.
This epsiode was so gut wrenching. It was Infinity War meets Empire Strikes Back. They highlighted Gambit, Rogue and Magneto so well as we get to see the pain, suffering, anguish, happiness through their lens. Also the cameo with Beau DeMayo felt like a sad sendoff almost feeling so meta. The ending scene with Chris Potter this time voicing Cable instead of Gambit was a nice change. He does sound little like Josh Brolin.
This is the X-Men version of the red wedding. This changed everything.
its the comic retelling of the Genoisha island massacre, which was written way before the Red Wedding.
My jaw is on the floor and my mind is on the walls from being blown.
They adapted E is for Extinction from Grant Morrison’s run of New XMen with the Genosha Massacre.
Only without Cassandra Nova.
A lot of the adapted comic arcs have been changed and streamlined really well, and I think they work a lot better. Especially the Inferno arc. They saved Scott from being a deadbeat Dad that abandoned Maddie and Nathan for months overnight when he found out Jean was alive.
I think the show portrays the stories better than they were in the comics.
It's amazing that they brought that three headed sentinel to life too. That thing is scary as hell!
@@arc7375i definitely think Cassandra gonna be in this
People say they finally did gambit justice but y’all I’m ngl NIGHTCRALER IS PEAKK🔥👀 (imo)
That "hab keine angst" and the "I can't feel you..." both got me.
Also, I think Greg is the only reactor I've seen actually mention the Watcher during their reaction.
Gambit was a very important x men memorable. Honestly, it made me take in a shock this way that such an emotional and overwhelming and broken moment came to pass. And seriously, Rogue was in his last moments.😭😭😭
This episode made me go through a range of emotions, lol
I hope Magneto and Gambit are alive. This will definitely turn Magneto back to a villain.
Magneto is alive I'm betting he was pulled out of time at the last second but just him
They are so dead…cable will have to change the time line…I could see these events also leading to an incursion for secret wars…great stuff
@biofixphysicaltherapy5353 but that's not how time travel works in marvel you can't go to the past and fix everything
@@wintertrooper7918 that’s true …he looked pretty dead to me same as gambit🤷♂️ although that could be depending on what universe ur in?🤷♂️
Don’t worry. I’ve been picking up hints that laters seasons will adapt the Krakoa arc. Which means all dead mutants will be resurrected.
This was like the greatest soap opera ever for 3/4ths of the episode, and then The Red Wedding happens.
It honestly feels like X-men has never been better than this.
I've been an X-Men fan since 1990 - this is the screen adaptation I've always wanted
Whoever steps into Beau Demayos role for season 3 has HUGE shoes to fill.
Something tells me that after the success of this season, they'll rehire him.
And a lot of steroids to shoot up, porn to film, and X-Men staff to bully and harass.
They would be MORONIC to not bring him back, this show is AMAZING so far.
Why did they fired him?
He has onlyfans and doing some disgusting stuff if you work for Disney and doing some sick shtt you not working there
This episode was so amazing! Seeing Nightcrawler return in this episode was cool! 👍
We got to see Cable also.
So many cameos. Multiple Man dancing caught me off guard. And Exodus??? Also was that Legion with the Morlocks?
Madeline wasn't snooping, Madeline was the "Jean" talking to Scott in that scene, and Jean caught them.
Yep. Was clear that way.
I’m surprised nobody is talking about Magneto and Rogue’s dynamic. Notice how when they first met he’s placed on a “throne” and then he mentors hers. He sees how much she admires him too. Also how the only thing connecting them is touch. Every time they talk he enters her personal space. I feel like he knows that only reason for her to come back to him is physical contact. I think during the gala Gambit’s word finally rang true for Rogue. I think was able to free herself from Magneto’s touch.
Gambit was my favorite from episode 1. Glad to see I had the right judgment. He went out like a warrior saving people and showcasing his power incrediblely. He's so cool and powerful in my eyes.
The amount of feels in this episode.
Any time a group of people just tries to exist feeling happy and safe following all of the rules they're asked to; "oh to play by their rules and still they come for you" indeed. 😶
Gambit's self sacrifice for the people he loves broke my heart, but then also had me calling out Rexplode with "THIS IS HOW YOU AVENGE FALLEN FRIENDS WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE AND MAKE THINGS EXPLODE: TAKE THE KILLER WITH YOU". (I know Rex lived, but like that's a Grey's Anatomy universe level fluke)
Wait until "The Invincible War"...
I loved the dramatic, love/turmoil between Rogue and Remy, Madelyn/Jean/ Scott drama aswell and Magneto’s Train whip moves on the Sentinel Kaiju. This episode was legit shocking ! The editing and lack of score in the background was amazing and saddening.!the last line by Rogue!😭😭
Can we het some kind of award for Lenore Zann? Her delivery of "I can't FEEL you" is CRUSHING
The best episode so far I don’t know how they will top this
its a story arc... it can only get better, if you read these comic book arcs. If you know, you know
If that guy who left this show wrote this . They need to bring him back!! Asap with a raise outstanding show !!
Problem is he didn't just leave. They fired him. Hopefully what they fired him over is something patchable.
@bajansamurai No Joke, they fired him because they found out he had an Onlyfans
@@xallenjr I'm aware of that story but I don't know if that's the whole of it.
I really hope the onlyfans rumors aren't true. That's not a reason to fire someone. It's much easier to find nudes of several Disney actors than it is to find nudes of Beau DeMayo. A lot of talent has a history of actual wrongdoing and the list of famous people with onlyfans accounts is pretty long. Demonizing people for sex work is outdated, but I hear his onlyfans wasn't even explicit. It was mostly just a hot guy with muscles in sexy outfits.
@@AllGreyEverything that's why I felt there was more to it than the Onlyfans
Whats always been amazing about this show is that it always felt like this. It always felt mature, it always had crazy stuff happening in episodes. I can not wait for the next one. Its astounding the way they brought this back. The hype is real af for me
*Someone takes a breath*
Coy: OHHHHH IN THE COMICS
Dude, every time that someone would say that the nowadays MCU is dead, I´ll show this clip, perfect, just perfect
X men 97 isn't apart of the mcu
Yeah i think its more like marvel animation having its own thing while mcu still doing something
that’s just it, this isn’t the mcu. let’s see how they do they x men 💀
The mcu died with iron Man mate and even before that it was dying. Alsó xmen animation is nőt mcu
XM97 is from Marvel Animation. It clearly shows that in the intro. Also, the show runner who unfortunately was fired had already said in an interview that XM97 is in its own shared universe along with the Marvel/Fox animation properties of the 90s. It's not part of the MCU. Thank the Phoenix for that. I don't want the present MCU to ruin this masterpiece.
You could see the outline of the watcher in one of the shots over Genosha. Almost as if this event is a key moment in the multiverse
Funny how Greg saw it and Coy was oblivious, even after Greg said something.
Guys, Scott was talking with and mentally kissed Madelyne! Madelyne was not snooping, Jean caught them!
my 10yo is home sick and we just watched it together. I'm so proud of him because I glanced away at the transition to the night scene in Genosha and he yelled "that was the Watcher!". I rewound and once I confirmed he was right I knew shit was about to go down.
Still though, DAYUM.
After episode 1 I was like "oh man, no way they top cyclops and storm" after episode 2 I was like "Oh goodness, they ATE with magneto, no way they top that' now after episode 5 I cant even imagine how they'll top rogue, nightcrawler and especially GAMBIT. This show is a MASTERPIECE. ABSOLUTE CINEMA
its just getting more intense...episode after episode. They really copy pasting the comic books, and I falling in love man. So , good.
lol when Magneto and Rogue sky danced the music playing turned it from Disney+ to Skinemax 😂😂😂
Cable tells them to turn off the music, so they could hear the explosions over the fireworks, as the island was already being attacked.
this episode was the one of the best damn things to ever be shared with people, wow
Yo,I cried like a lot! The first time, and then again watching it with you and then I watched it again to read the captions at the end.
Just crushed
Gatdamn i been watchin Xmen since i was 8yrs old and am 40 in 2024 and ine ever seen anything like before or......
This is what *MINDBLOWN* feels like dude!!!
Same I'm 50 and been a fan since the early 80s. My jaw was on the floor.
@@OGYabbydude,
Watched every single episodes of TAS, XMEN EVOLUTION, WOLVERINE & THE XMEN (Albeit only 1 season) and every live action version of Xmen Fox Universe.
The only thing that kinda comes close is DOFP future battle scenes with the Sentinels and even that aint ready for ep5 Xmen '97!!!
*HOLY SHITTTTTTTTT!!!!*
😮
That's not Legion, it's Erg (a Morlock). Similar hairstyles.
For reals no way would Legion be hiding and not doing anything useful
Legion would've turned that super sentinel into a bowl of soup and ate that shit. I thought Coy was a big comicbook guy, Erg wears a freaking eye patch.
@@WhatAmIAStrangerlol, imagine thinking the son of Xavier, one of the most powerful mutants and such a major character that they even made a show about him, is just chilling in a basement with morlocks, hiding, and gets 1 second of screen time.
22:21 gambit has always been badass. Hes been in a lot of fights that they won. Maybe not because of him but he was apart of that winning strategy. Cant believe they went there. Full applause and RIP to remy. Definitely has ALWAYS been one of my favorite x-men. Magneto, Xavier, and cyclops and gambit. I often struggle not naming him as my favorite since there are so many cool characters. Just love his swag and jacket and that rod he has!! So cool!!!
I lost it when Rogue echoed Wanda's sad tome..."I can't feel you..." Tears!!!! Well done Marvel Animation writers!!! Major kudos!!! Did I see the Watcher in the fireworks in Genosha?
Did anyone notice the sign "Magneto was right" eerily prophetic...where Magneto always said there would be a war against the mutant when we (the mutants) least expect it. Magneto was right, Xavier was wrong. Well done story!!
