    Best Apocalypse quotes:
    Human: "A mutant!" Apocalypse: "I am as far beyond mutants as they are beyond you."
    "For I bring the purity of oblivion to your world."
    "I cannot be touched. I cannot be harmed. Watch me and tremble."
    "The old world passes away. Together we shall forge a new one in fire and blood."
    While wrecking the X-Men: "I am the rocks of the eternal shore. Crash against me and be broken!"
    "I am Apocalypse! Look upon the future and tremble!"

And the 90s Spider man show I agree hasn't aged as well, but is still legit and it makes sense that ppl would make the spidey comments.

    You realize the creators had to fight to make it serialized and not one off self contained episodes? That was revolutionary for a cartoon and is largely the reason we have so much serialized TV now. X-Men the cartoon changed TV, so love it or hate it the X-Men cartoon helped us all.

      It was basically a synopsis of Claremont's X-Men. It was the first show that didn't shy away from the comics content. Although you could say the same with Batman TAS, but, I think with TAS reinvented Batman, while X-Men showed you how cool comics were. They had the same costumes and same personalities as the comics albeit being PG13. If you were an X-Men fan before the series, everything was a treat, if you were a fan after watching the series it was a perfect beginning to get you into the comics.

    I was surprised looking back in anticipation for the new revival, to see the show was actually pretty good. when I watched the first episode all i could think was "wow the animation did look like that didn't it" but I slowly got past that and remembered as I watched that the stories and dialogue remained consistently good and really kept the premise of mutant persecution and different ideologies present throughout. good job 90's x-men, heres hoping the revival is good.

    Growing up in the 90s with a tumor on my face was extremely hard. I was a mutant. This show was my only truth on how I should handle myself around people being treated so differently and harshly. This show possibly saved my life. Wish more shows could connect with people in such a way.

    Hi Rob, I starting reading the comics in the 70s and I was a big X-Men fan. So much so, that I became an artist to be able to draw comics. When X-Men The Animated Series debuted, I wasn't that happy with it. Artistically, I didn't like the animation style of the show. Though I wasn't into the animation style, I watched the show faithfully. With all that said, I will give the show its praise, it was true to most of the characterizations and canon of the book, which I really appreciated (I wish the movies could've been as true as the series)! Nostalgia has me now looking at the series with fondness!

    Even though it was maybe 60% true to the comics most changes that were made were exceptable to a point but the killing points were the voice actors they were INCREDIBLE in delivering how every character's true personalities which put it over the top for most of us OG fans & the music was on point also & no other show thus far has been able to touch X-Men: The Animated Show! This show alone's better then all the movies combined!

    • @ReeceHoward06
      @ReeceHoward06 6 лет назад +2

      EnSabahNur By far, the best voice actors for the x characters were in this show.
      It always bothered me how Magneto was suddenly portrayed as a Brit after Ian Mkellen's movie portrayal in all the animated works and videi games. Im like, Mags isnt a brit and hasnt spent any length of time in England to gain that accent in canon. His voice was PERFECT in TAS though.
      I can go on and on about how good the voices in that show were.

And three Fridays for a special event, can you remember what arc it was? Three consecutive Friday nights with another popular fox Kids show. Both were epic....

    I grew up watching this show, it was one of my favourites. Favourite moment is I think when Apocalypse springs that trap on Cable that you mentioned. Cable says to him that Good will always triumph over Evil, it's the nature of the universe. So Apocalypse stops to think about it and decides to investigate it, and just teleports away. That's when he ends up trying to restart the universe with all the mutant psychics and stuff. Oh, oh oh.. so in that episode there's this janitor guy at the out of time whatever place, can you do a video on him? I've always wanted to know more about that guy!
