They softened the crescendo at the end of the new version of the song so it doesn't slap as hard. They also took out the sound of the big clock tower bell at the very end of the song which is obvious if you are looking for it. Overall I'm sticking with the 90s version.
@@meric12131415yep. There are two crescendos in the song. After each of them there is a singular "Gong" sound, or something that sounds like a church bell. This video uses the old song so you can hear it in this video.

It's crazy how smooth and aesthetically appealing the original intro was, when you consider it was completely made with hand-drawn cel animation, without the aid of computer graphics.
Can someone tell me what’s wrong with the shadowing in the “new” version? Check out magneto towards the end. Too of his head is “shadowed” but not his eyebrows.
More detail helps, even if the actual animation in the show could be stiff at times. Frankly the new animation is about one notch above Archer in some ways.
I’ve noticed this a lot too with anime from the 90s or early 2000s that has gotten a recent reboot. The art is “cleaner” but it lacks a lot of detail and comes out looking flat.
@@emprabrea All of the shapes are heavily simplified. It looks a bit like these early flash cartoons with these thick lines. It seems the direction all animation art is going though. X-men evolution also had that difference with the original cartoon.
Yeah, don't know why, but their faces are really weird, soulless, little creepy. Compare Rogue from the 90s with modern Rogue - modern has this empty stare, like doll. Jubillee, Jean Grey, Magneto and Professor X also look like robots.
They definitely made this series not to replace the original X-Men show but to improve on it. It genuinely feels like they made this for X-Men fans. Not superhero fans, not action fans, X-Men fans specifically.
'97 has brighter colors and sharper image, but doesn't do well with shading / shadows for some reason. most noticeable in Storm's intro, in '97 the lighting on her remains the same despite the dark sky/clouds and lightning she conjures; while in the OG the animators made sure to cast a shadow over Storm when the dark clouds roll in, and also backlit her against the bright flash of lightning in the background.
Yeah I'm honestly not too crazy over new art style just because it's just something with their faces I'm not vibing with for some reason. Not going to stop me though I'll probably get over it
It had to be, it was competing with Batman the animated series intro. In fact Batman TAS intro motivated other great intros like x-men TAS intro, spider-man TAS intro and even gargoyles theme.
Yeah, me too. And her face as well .. in OG she looks older and more serious. Rogue is missing a bit of her character’s sexiness- her belt now is straight 😒
In what way? They deliberately matched the animation rates (or lack of), particularly in this opening where they're lining up which frames nearly exactly, and the line density is about the same on average, just much more even (the original flipped between bare outlines and absurdly rendered) You can prefer one style or the other fine, or think they should be able to do much better, but either way they're not being lazy here.
@@carlosramirezjr.7282 2D animation by computer is actually easier than doing it by hand. It's easier to fix mistakes, less space is taken up by character reference sheets and tools (pencils, ink, loose paper, etc), so the only reason this animation is choppier and sloppier than the old style is that the animators weren't given as much time, money, or direction to work with.
It's so sad how people think digital animation looks better than hand drawn frames the old one may not be as flashy but you can pause at any frame and the detail won't disappear
