Jean: .... He's Here
Wolverine: Who? Apocalypse?
Best line
Jean- THE BABY!!!
Wolverine- Oh crap.
(Best funny moment in history)
Bruuuuuh 😂
"Don't make me let you down" is BY FAR the best line.
And then Jean uses her powers to throw his coat and keys at him as he stands there motionless, just brilliant.
Wolverine from the 90's would never say that....
I think Grace forgets how fast paced the original show was. Episodes moved at a fast pace and cramped in a LOT of story into a short period of time.
no tey really didn't the episodes were mostly self contained stories.
Like fr in the original series Apocalypse just casually appears in like episode 6 lol
@@dragonwatter Take Xmen Season 1 finale. It starts off resolving last weeks cliffhanger (magneto kidnapping a Senator) to deciding to go on a suicide mission, to defeating mastermold all within 22 minutes. That is a VERY fast pace.
Exactly!
I rewatched the series this month and everything was happening lightning fast, it took a bit to get used to.
"Don't think! Be silent! Heed my comments and you will survive" my new fave Storm quote !
Who else got chills when the Sentinel said
Omega level threat detected
And then enter Storm
About frigging time ❤❤❤😅😅
She's been an omega mutant in the comics for a while
@@connorbingham4764 yeah in the comics, we all know that, and I know that 🤣🤣
But she never got recognition on screen
So it’s a huge moment
And then they made her powerless.... :(
@@kyuubidemon95 I know 🥹🥹
@@liampd4342 i want melodramatic scenes with storm not her leaving the x men.... :(
I don't know what grace is talking about. This show is just like the original. Cliffs notes of the best comic story lines. This is better than the original series.
2 episodes are better than the entire 70+ episodes of the original series ? What a joke.
I honestly love how Wolverine isn’t like front and center. He know he’s cool and awesome so it’s nice seeing him truly as a secondary character and not the main like how he’s been depicted for the last 24 years, and even in this very year!
That’s so true!
This is classic X-men. This is incredible
Exactly it's not wolverine and X-men (No pun intended) it's X-men. We finally get why Cyclops is the leader of the X-men
I know right. When was the last time Cyclops was the leader of the X Men?
Wolverine is a fan favorite, but he's not the Main Character.
I disagree with you Grace. I thought this had amazing appeal. I miss marvel animation that’s not made for babies. Young Justice Filled that spot for a bit but now x-men will fill that space!
I totally agree with you. I don't think Grace understood this isn't for comic book fans, this is for the TV show fans - which are not always the same group, but can have overlaps.
In terms of where is Mystique - i'm convinced she's pretending to be Val Cooper and everything that has happened in the first two eps was planned by her and Magneto.
It would fit perfectly.
Yeah that would be a good theory as well
Oooohhhhhh! Thats a good one!
I was sneakily watching at work and almost shrieked with joy at "Omega level threat detected" lol
Hahaha same, I rewound twice just to hear that line😄
About time my girl got some love
This show is for the fans of the tv series, not necessarily the comics, movies or mcu. I think it does a great job of continuing the story while enhancing it
That's a good point! I am excited to watch this!
Ep 2 to me was better then like all the movies
I think the show is good for general xmen fans.
I liked the movies tv shows (not the original. Stuff like evolution and wolverine and the xmen)
I like playing them in games.
Stuff like that. Just a fan of xmen and I loved this. Just great to have new xmen content that's enjoyable.
I gotta disagree with ya here Grace, I love how they're delivering the story. I love it when multiple story threads are introduced, as long as they tie them all up eventually, unraveling so much it feels like chaos is exhilerating.
Who else cried during the 2nd episode 😭😭😭😭
That storm moment 😢I'm was bawling
I bawled hard man… she’s my favorite and to see her lose her powers like that and then the haunting dialogue she gave after with the crying on the floor just tore me up! 💔⚡️⚡️😢
Yep sure did😢
Me
I hear and understand the critiques. That being said, I’ve never been happier to have new X-Men content, so I’m strapped in and ready for this.
I think she forgets the show is an adaptation of the comics and not a straight up translation. Appreciate it for what it is - and how awesome it is at that!
I feel like Grace hasn’t watched the 90s cartoon. They are replicating the pacing of the original show.
Finally! Cyclops is a brilliant tactician! Thank you Xmen 97 for portraying that!
I love his fighting stile. Pushing himself with the beam
Cyclops is Right! 😌🙏
@@serenitynow85never thought of him using his beam like that
@@calvinfisher5886 I always have and was frustrated no one had shown it yet. You can do A LOT with concussive force beams that utilizes vision/sight. Even his range should be massive.
I’m sorry but the Euphoria comparison doesn’t make any sense.
Grace is too PG haha
She’s just saying don’t rely too much on melodrama and lean into more epic large scale plots and action
These 2 episodes are PERFECT. The way the relationships were portrayed, each character having their own desires, Storm being recognized as an Omega level mutant, Rogue and Magneto, Jean and Storm’s scene and Cyclops actually being the leader and being shown to be a strategic and impulsive. Also, Logan and Morph’s friendship was really cute. The show does move really quick and a lot of story is shown at us really quickly. But honestly, two solid episodes. Really enjoyed them a lot. 8.5/10
How can you say no one cares about Gambit and Rogue???
Everything about this show is incredible. Especially the writing.
Did anyone else lose it when u heard the sentinel say
"Omega level threat detected"
Then seeing storm be all goddess damn near made me have a stroke and break the TV for how many times I rewound tht whole scene
I'm so glad they gave us the omega level title for 97 instead of waiting till like 2014 when they finally confirmed it lol
I know chills everytime I rewound it myself 🎉🎉
The action scene choreo in general gives me a lot of hope
Oh, was this the scene where Cyclops said give them the forecast?
These are some weird takes Grace…you want this to be a straight comic adaptation.
When it is clearly a continuation of the original series
Ironically her takes on the comics are wildly inaccurate too. She keeps referring to the "Claremont & Lee" comics like they worked together for years. They didn't, they did 2 issues together. She also keeps criticising the show for putting character "telenovela" drama over action, but Chris Claremont wrote the comic for 17 years, and any X-Men fan will tell you he prioritised soap opera-esque interpersonal drama over action.
I'll also say she's claiming this series pushes the "mutant as minority" metaphor further than the comics. It isn't going half as hard as the comics do.
@@tomemyscoobiesi decided to give Grace one final chance because i’m running out of videos to watch about this show, but godammit it should’ve known she would instantly start badmouthing it lmao why do i even bother
does she do this on purpose?? is she just a contrarian for engagement? last video i watched of hers she was praising SSKTJL and i nearly lost it
I love EVERYTHING about this show! Cyclops... WOW!! I knew I liked him for a reason, but DAMN did they do him right!! The moment with Jean and Storm was so touching. Very emotional. My first OH SHIT moment was when the sentinel tore apart the jet, grabbed Cyclops, Cyclops fighting it off, and him having total control of skydiving and landing! And Storm walking in like a BOSS and taking care of the sentinels. "Bring in the forecast." This show has gone WAY ABOVE my expectations!! I can't wait for the next episode. I hope you are all loving it, too.
Thats such a weird take. We know visual media like television brings way more people. The comics crowd isnt as big as you think. And even current comics fans havenet read every single story or arc in the comics so itll be good to see them adapted in this medium. Why would you want X-Men show to slow down when we havent had anything in like 15 years. The point of this show is to introduce this to a whole generation. They dont need to be taught or talked down to. Its a gateway. If they are interested they will all follow their own X-men journeys.
They couldn't go 2 episodes without Jean passing out 😅😂😂
I think that was a deliberate tongue-in-cheek "homage" and she won't do it going forward.
Nice jacket Grace!👍🏿😉
It’s a very cool jacket.
Magik vibes!
It cold in apartment.
Please stop referencing Euphoria these shows are absolutely nothing alike “vibes” or otherwise
I didn't know what she meant by that
I absolutely love the first two episodes but as an avid storm fan, I’m sad to see her lose her powers. I hope she gets back soon.
As an avid Storm fan surely you should know that her losing her powers is a classic arc from the comics?
@@davidsparham658 I do know this it doesn’t mean I have to like it lol
I know I was in told tears when that happened
Storm losing and regaining her powers is a very popular story arc.... your comment suggests you are unaware of it.... poor choice of words "Avid" maybe she is your favorite... bit confused by your comment I guess
@@edwinnavedojr OK I know about the life death storyline. I read the comment a few times but we’re talking about the animated series and at the time I wrote this comment, we didn’t know how closely the show was going to follow the comics hence why I said I hope she gets her back soon smh 🤦
Cyclops lovers UNITE!
I want to see him with Emma, those two were perfect together.
Long time Scott fan.
@@joesteel7409 Makes me want to read more of the comics. Only comics I read were Astounding X-Men, where they were already together; loved that series and it made me a big fan of Kitty Pryde.
My man is finally proving himself to be better than James Bond.
@@commandershepard9920 a great X-Men run is "God loves,man kills" ,wich is my fave run ,and "Mutant Genesis".
If you want some cyclops centric stories i really love the Uncanny X-Men by Bendis where he takes on a more Magneto/villain persona wich i absolutley LOVED
Did she watch the original show at all? Like 90% of the complaints could be applied to the original show too.
These two episodes were perfect. Filled with potential storylines, character development, cool action, all while having a clear point of view. Let's hope it stays that way. Best superhero content in years.
Loves these two episodes! Storm, Jean, Cyclops, and Magneto especially were great. The Storm and Jean friendship from the comics which hardly any X-Men show portrayed was EXCELLENT! The scene where she sent Jean the letter and the time she talked her through her worries! Them calling each other sisters! Magneto’s scene above the earth. I knew they were gonna do something with him and Rogue but not so soon! So good! And GAMBIT IN THAT OUTFIT! I screamed when he took of his shirt ngl. Oh my gosh!!! And I do agree the colors of their powers just aren’t right. Jean is pink and Magneto is blue! AND THEM CALLING STORM AN OMEGA LEVEL MUTANT/THREAT! Plus the intro changing from episode to episode to reflect the storylines covered in the past and how they tie into future ones. I can go on and on because I am in love and we FINALLY have an animated X-Men show after a long period of not getting anything from them! So GOOD!
You haven’t even seen euphoria and it’s nothing like euphoria 🙄 this is X-men as it’s finest
Perhaps what she's referring to is the drama aspects and maybe she would have been more accurate to say Euphoria is like X-Men drama instead of X-Men is like Euphoria.
i keep wondering what she's talking about
I think Magneto’s speech could apply to the real world.
Grace….sometimes I don’t know WTF you’re blathering about. 🤣😂 EUPHORIA? They went to a bar and it’s suddenly EUPHORIA???
It was basically an average Saturday night in Sunnyvale scene. You’re grasping with every straw, bro. lol
As a Jean fan since I was little, I NEED EPISODE 3!!!!
Its time sis
Amen and hallelujah to that!!
Me, too!!! Madeline???
@@IsiahBradley, or what if it’s Rachel? I think you’re right. We will know if her telekinetic powers are green like the action figure.
@@Ri-Lizzie Good point!!!! EXCITED!!!!
This shit is exactly like the original show bruh idk what Grace is on sometimes 😂
IIRC you said you ultimately decided against rewatching the original series in preparation for this continuation. You really should've. The writing was just as "Cliff Notes" back then.
The Euphoria comparison makes no sense, you can tell she hasn’t seen the show, because whatever comparison she was trying to make, I don’t see it. Also, I think the writing is superb, and we’ll paced. As a fan of the original series that didn’t get that into the comics, I feel I enjoy it more because I’m not taken out of this story telling and not let down by something not leading into whatever happened on the comics, so overall I’m enjoying this more than her
I was hoping she would elaborate more on that cuz I was confused where the connection is. But I didn't know she hasn't seen euphoria lol that makes sense
I don’t get how she thinks there’s no writing when some of the moments where so profound too me, Magneto’s speech and Storms letter where some amazing writing, like top tier !!!
I didn't get the comparison either! Euphoria doesn't have a trademark on bisexual lighting LOL
I agree. I think Grace’s view on this show is so biased. She’s so wrapped up in the comics & the connected world of the MCU that she can’t appreciate this show for what it is. A stand alone continuation of a good show. Strictly for entertainment.
Idk how you can watch Magneto’s monologue at the end of season 2 and say the writing is weak…
Literally just finished, and loved every second.
This blew my fucking mind! When Morph turned into, The Blob, Lady Deathstrike, Colossus, Psylocke, and Sabertooth I literally yelped. All of it was perfect 👌
It feels like from this review you read the comics but never watched the show. They truncated lots of story lines from the comics. Which is fine. They don't have 12 books to publish every year. They don't need to draw things out.
Yeah I’m a bit shocked with how off base she is with this review
That UN speech is my entire motto!
LISTEN!!! It was sooo good!
SO GOOD
Grace - I’ve been watching you and your other channels since day one for over a decade, but I can’t sit with you on this, sis.
Your takes seen really bizarre and absurd. Yes, the episodes were fast-paced. But the entire run of the original cartoon was very rushed. They speedran the DoFP AND Phoenix/Dark Phoenix storylines. But it’s a cartoon. And they had to streamline not just decades, but *generations* of comic lore and stories.
The criticism on “cliff notes” and telling/hinting at stories we already know is not a fair statement. Not everyone who watches the cartoons had ever read the comics. So naturally, they’re introducing these things as new for the audience, because for most viewers, they *are* new.
As for the writing, I actually found the writing much better than I expected. The dialogue was well-written, snappy and punchy.
This reminds me of her Mario review unfortunately, it’s shockingly out of touch.
WOOHOO GRACE!!!! I rarely comment but for the X-Men, I have to. I feel our time is finally here. X-Men has had an integral part in my life. The complexity of their stories has always been what made the X-Men special.
Writing None Existent. Sorry Grace I couldn't disagree more. They took a classic cartoon and Improved on it. That Never happens/ Batman the Animated series had 3 fantastic spin offs and Obviously kora was a great spin off. But never has a reboot taken the torch and ran with it.
When I saw Dr. Cooper i yelled
"It's Grace Randolph!" 😂
I did too 😂
“The oppressed become the oppressors.” Really timely line from Magneto in the trial.
Cough Isreal Cough
@@richierich7229yep!
@@richierich7229not even remotely the same, Israel isn’t oppressing anyone.
Now Hamas and PA on the other
The moment I saw Gambit and Magneto's outfits, my immediate response was "yup this is the 90s, alright," and I'm here for it.
Nobody in the '90's was wearing that
@@SWOTHDRA The show, while being set in the 90s, has adults like Gambit, who grew up in the 80s and would wear 80s style fashion as well. 90s design, however, was unapologetic camp.
Considering this is a continuation of the original series i believe they felt like it would be a waste of time introducing the X-Men again over an extended period of time, especially since the original is on Disney+ for all to see
the display of Magneto's power has always been the color yellow...since day 2 in the comic books
Grace doesn’t know wtf she’s talking about as usual
Neither of you know what you’re talking about. In the original Lee Kirby run his powers was just black lines. Then in 90s through to the current run, his powers have blue. Even on the famous cover she JUST showed you from 1991, they’re blue.
"More talking and drama than accion" that sound exactly like the Xmen to me jajajaj a soap opera with powers
Yep
Claremont's X-Men was very well known for being a soap opera! I don't get where this take of hers came from.
Did u ever watch the cartoon series
You refer to the Claremont/Lee era as if it had lasted beyond the first 3 issues of X-Men. Both were out after that. When Jim Lee started working on Uncanny X-Men the team was disbanded after everything that went down in the australian outback and only began to regroup after the X-Tinction Agenda event. The character dynamics we see in the show were present before Jim Lee worked on the series.
Isn’t that kind of how the original started out with? Every now and then they would have cameos of characters that you wouldn’t really know unless you read the comics. When Carol Danvers was still being called Ms Marvel, I had no clue who she was other than her connection with Rogue.
I'm glad Storm lost her powers because now we're getting to see one of her greatest storylines from the comics unfold!
What storyline is that
@monsterking1973 she went 3 1/2 years w/o her powers and led to her finding herself, Uncanny X-men 185-226
It’s a definitive part of her character. It effectively shows how powerful she is and the reason why she deserved to lead the X-Men, even powerless.
@@monsterking1973Fall of the Mutants
@@monsterking1973 X-men: Lifedeath by Chris Claremont & Barry Windsor-Smith
When the sentinel clocked an "omega level mutant" and Storm ate his a** up!!!!! Loooooooved it.
I’m a huge Cyclops fan who loves his abilities and leadership questions. X-men ‘97 did him justice. Also the respect for Storm as an Omega level goddess.
When I saw Psylocke popping up at the court scene, I was like Yeah!! They definitely know how to use Morph to please the fans.
All I heard were complaints and this show did an amazing job really the best product dropped from marvel in a long time
It came back so much better than I thought it would, I think it's totally in line with the previous iteration but a lot more focused with this version and I actually prefer the writing in '97. The animation has just the right amount of update yet still feels 90's 👍👍
Respectfully, Grace, the writing in these first two episodes was great. It was easily on par with the very best of the original series. The X-Men has such a big cast that the writers can't focus on all the characters simultaneously. Putting the emphasis on Scott, Jean and Magneto during this transition of leadership was a good call. And this is a continuation of the original series; that's why groups like the Friends of Humanity don't need long introductions.
😂😂😂😂😂 Grace thinks just because she says constantly that she reads comics - makes her an expert. She isn’t even a expert on film/tv never mind comics.
You can clearly tell from her reaction she NEVER grew up with this show.
Grace , adore you but imo you are so off on this one. The writing was great , especially episode 2. Sometimes I think you think way to much about business and forget to just be a fan. Love the content just an observation.
She’s so off base it’s actually insane
Grrrrrrlllll, you crazy! Grace, this was PHENOMENAL! This gives me EVERYTHING that the movies did not. It also seems to be keeping it fresh by pulling from the X-Men's wealth of classic storylines. The things that most excited me were seeing proper renditions of Storm and Cyclops (who got short shrift in the Fox films despite being the two major leaders of the team), Rogue going off and being powerful, and the amazing visuals! I subscribed to D+ to watch and am pleased as punch
Asking why this show exists….its not that deep Grace. It’s for entertainment. It’s a cartoon. A good cartoon. Most watchers did not read the comics. This is new material for a lot of people. You need to see it from the point of view from someone who just wants to watch a good show & that’s what this is.
Grace is killing the jacket game with this one 🔥
I loved these first two episodes!!! I'm so happy to have X-Men again!
Yeah looks awesome wish I had that jacket
I was a casual X-Men fan before this, with most of my knowledge coming from the movies, but I am absolutely LOVING this show! It’s perfect so far for me. Have never been as big of an X-Men fan as I am right now.
I literally could not be more happier with it. THEY WENT THERE
Where?
Morph also was Sabertooth
Grace, the pacing is fast but the writing is actually very good and sharp
X-Men telenova? More like X-Men teleCassandraNova.
The disrespect of storm must STOP 🛑
She'll recover.....it's showing a different side to someone who is extremely powerful and can be vulnerable
The point is because it’s fun!!! Don’t think too much into it!!
Die hard xmen fan here and these 2 episodes are perfect I was crying and all the promise of what's to come, cyclops being awesome, god I loved it, and my self from the 90s would have died enjoying watching these I'm so happy.
Get off the grouch train grace, rewatch the animated series and join the party this is so good my mind exploded it was so good !! If the mcu does the xmen along this vein, god I can't wait for the future!!!!
As someone who doesn't and has never read an X-Men comic I was eating up all the drama. When the helicopters landed to get Magneto i was like no go back to the drama with Wolverine and Jean please lol. It really is like a Soap Opera with powers and I'm down for it tbh
All I can say is that those first two episodes were amazing. Everything they're doing with Magneto is brilliant. And I love how the legacy of Xavier is driving the plot. It really drives home what a great man he was.
The point of this show is to make me happy, grace!
Wow, I love the writing
As a new X-Men fan, this show worked PERFECTLY for me. When it ended, i was craving more. Can’t wait to see what’s next and SO glad there’s more seasons coming!
Grace, you're bugging! The writing for these first two episodes is very good
they’ve got to bring storm back right?!
i’m loving this show so much
I liked the story telling here & thought the pacing was great. We don’t need to get bogged down in every little detail & they can flesh out the plot lines as the story goes on.
OMT, the X-Men had drama and romance way before Lee came onto the book. Also, Psylocke joined the X-Men years before Lee came onto the book. Remember, Claremont was writing the UNCANNY X-MEN comic for about 15 years before Jim Lee came onto the book as the artist. So all of the stuff that you are crediting to the Claremont and Lee era were already in the comics before Lee came onto the book.
I could not be happier with the show, its gorgeous and the nostalgic in all the best ways. The stories and writing were really strong to me, they know these characters! It did feel fast paced but with only 10 episodes I understand.
Damn. 4am in NY. That's real dedication Grace. You're awesome 🙌🏻
Probably pre-recorded. They got screeners.
I’m a X-men fan Grace and I here for all of this! Fast paced is better than nothing IMO.
She got screeners.
She’s watched beyond ep 2
I thought it was way better than I expected
Die hard fan here. LOVE IT SO FAR! CANNOT wait until next week! It makes me wanna read the comics again.
Grace, I literally returned to Disney+ for this. Very well written. Structurally sound per episode. ❤️ well done. Had a good time and that’s all I want- to escape this crazy 2024 and go back to ‘97. 😅
Enjoyed the show! Like how they brought the 90's aesthetic. Seems they are getting Cyclops and Storm right! Glad they are bringing different stories from the comic books, as well.
Getting storm right by having her give up and quit? Is that storm?
@@festo512 Yes it is. It's comic accurate. In the comic Lifedeath she loses her powers and in the comics it was that way for quite awhile.
@festo512 Not that part. When the Sentinel said Omega level mutant. If you're familiar with the comics too, what happened to her does occur, and she returns...
I got chills when the Sentinel detected an "OMEGA LEVEL THREAT!" 🥹🥰
@@soulwork8391 Me too! Then she took them down!
all i was missing was my bowl of cereal…i loved it.
Grace you have such bizarre takes. These episodes were great. If it continues like this, it might even be the best Marvel show so far.
It was EXCELLENT!
New drinking game: take a shot every time Grace says "YA KNOW" :)
What's the point of this show? Um....fun? Entertainment? Remember shows made to entertain?
Magneto is a beast i loved when he had the choppers facing the ops after they tried to scare him with our non metal guns
Wow, Grace. You totally missed the point of this show.
I haven’t watched the video yet because I’m only 13 minutes into the first episode but I just had to come on here and say WOW! As someone who hasn’t watched the original series and who’s never really been a big X-Men fan, I am LOVING this so far! You instantly get an idea of what every character is about and I like them A LOT more than their Fox movie counterparts
As someone who’s mostly familiar with Cyclops through video games, his superhero landing might be one of the coolest things I’ve seen him do… I even had to watch that twice !
This storm looks so so so sooooooo good. And damn Gambit what a heartthrob
