"Pain" and "I had feelings" ; best non-spoiler ever and very accurate!
Facts @7:49 from Maggie. Thank you for not parroting the lunacy.
I’ll never give in to them!
@@themaggielovittAs someone in an age gap marriage I appreciate your reasonable and rational response on the matter.
Poor Gambit
It was moving, but I feel like the writers tried cramming too much into a half hour. The demise of Genosha, two love triangles (including Magneto grooming Rogue in what made the Brotherhood seem especially cult-y). I'm saying grooming because Rogue was supposed to be in her late teens when she left the Brotherhood.
On Genosha, I saw problems early when an apparent hermit country utopia is ruled by an oligarchy consisting mainly of characters who've been in 616 a Black King, Black Queen, a White Queen, and a White King. As an old fan of the X-Men comics, I'm sarcastically thinking "What could go wrong?" The writers don't give time for a Hellfire oligarchy to implode when they rush to bring Genosha's destruction to pass. With the whole Morlock thing, I was thinking Mirlock Massacre (which in the comics was committed by Sinister and the Marauders). Given the writing of the series, they'll probably remove Cassandra Nova from the direction of what was the genesis of Grant Morrison's book. While I enjoyed the Ace of Base music, the emotional dichotomy eerily gave the attack an October 7th vibe.
Generally, I'm thinking that this is bringing back the worst of Saban's X-Men. Watering down 616 canon into strong social political allegories that combined create so many mixed metaphors. Wolverine and the X-Men depicted Genosha better with a slow build to revealing a dictatorial surveillance state behind an apparent utopia.
If people ask why I'm reading into this writing, I point out how that's exactly why the writers are going for allegories and emotional leverage for the sake of social political thesis.
If you try validating Magneto's conditioning of Rogue just because she Lenora Zann didn't age down her voice to that of a "minor", think of the Manson Family, and how Charles's loyal acolytes were legal adults, with the exception of any children in the cult. People compare Magneto to Malcolm X in a mixed metaphor since Malcolm likely died because of his ideological epiphany. The culty manipulation made Magneto seem more like Farrakhan or one of the man's appointed leaders at more base level congregations.
DELETE "Red Flags" from existence.
Honestly didn’t know Collider was still a thing.
Yes, It sounded like a bunch of bull crap. 🥱👎🏾
