New X-Men Cartoon

It's sad that they never really used Kitty's powers as aggressively as they could have. She can be incredibly bad ass when she phases with skill. She can probably mess up almost any other X-Man except Jean or Iceman.
 
Speaking of Kitty showing her claws, a scene of her getting into it with Emma:

In case you can't read that, she's phasing Emma through ground saying "You get in my head, then the rocks get in yours"...

Good stuff, but thats just touching the surface of what she could do if she really wanted to do some damage
 
It doesn't help that Kitty has a very defined personality (cheeky and a Cub's fan), with some ninja skills, or that Kurt mixes the angsty/cheerful personality, and backs it with fencing skills...

Unfortunately, we all know that Anole would never exist in his honest-to-the-books form, just like any possible mention of Wiccan and Hulkling will disappear in whatever "Teen" Avengers cartoon movie Marvel's making...

why not? he's 16 and I could see him being relatable.

Or is there something in the comics I don't know about?
 
I think they should include Marrow (she was way ugly before her transformation) and possibly develop characters like Mirage or Karma.

Gross! I just discovered there's an ugly girl X-men named Surge.

Surge isn't ugly...she's just a Japanese girl with dyed blue hair who has electrical powers. Plus, she's the New X-Men's team leader.

And no, Anole would never make it as a true to book transfer because he's gay and all those Xtians would get their genitalia in a tizzy.

I like Spiderman and Batman but they just seem so unrealistic like superman. Dressed in a costume and flying above the town saving people. X-men where they get their powers from genes and a whole ton of people having powers is much more realistic. The theme of X-men with mutants and humans is also much more realistic and relatable too.

I actually loathe superman.


But, I did love the X3 movie. It seemed to have a lot of gay themes to it that I related to.
 
Replace all the use of the term "mutant" with "gay"....

Why do we need a cure?
Why should we be relegated to the sidelines when we represent so much more?
Why should we be ashamed of who we are?


The X-Men has always been a great parallel with the struggles of us homosexuals....
 
As well, int he comics, they've taken on the theme much more closely whereas it used to parallel the Civil Rights movement.

Young mutants discover they're mutants around puberty. Some parents disown them, some kick them out, some never talk to them again and the Xavier School takes them in. Some kids wish they weren't mutants, some think they're going to Hell while being persecuted by a crazy Reverend and his followers who tell them they definitely are.

The cure was another storyline with its own parallels, which were out right stated by Emma Frost and Kavita Rao (who invented the cure):

Emma: Curing the mutant gene? What's next, curing the gay gene?
Kavita: Nonsense! Homosexuality doesn't pose a threat to humanity!
Emma: Obviously we're not watching the same televangelists...
 
I actually first started reading comics in my early '20's. I was really painfully in the closet. I would end up crying with pretty much every issue of *The New Mutants* -- the "themes" seemed pretty obvious to me, as concisely stated by luminum, et al.

I will say this...

As an X-Men fan (Obsessive) for the past nearly 20 years...

I hated the 90's cartoon....

1) The animation was horrid...ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE...
2) The stories, although trying to stay true to the comics, skewered most of them with inanity and banality.
3) The voice actors were just plain bad. ( A QAF actor did the voice for Gambit.. and BADLY)
4) I felt absolutely no connection to the characters. No emotional bond to them the way I do about the comics or any of the other medium they were introduced to.
5) They totally fucked up Sinister, who is my all time favourite villain.

That's just 5 reasons why the 90's cartoon sucked... as opposed to Evolution which spent way more time developing the characters, made a grade A effort to breath a different aspect into something but stick with the original concept, had animation that was static ( by which I mean the characters didn't go from 12 feet tall to 6 feet tall in different angles), Had excellent voice talent, and introduced way more interesting secondary characters... Not to mention that Spyke was a better character than Morph.

I look forward to the new series even if it does focus a little much on Wolverine... but you have to remember... Wloverine is Marvel's cash-cow.

You know I saw a couple of episodes of that again the other day, and I have to say you're sort of right, but I loved the series at the time, and I still like it better than the post-patrick-stewart=Dr.X. animated series. I actually wish I had all five seasons on CD.

I especially enjoyed the opening montage/and musical theme.
 
Not to mention, the "legacy virus" and its parallels with HIV/AIDS, which I always thought was a particularly brilliant storyline.
 
Some of my favorite quotes from the 90's cartoon:
Some of Wolverine's classy quotes...kinda makes up for the fact that he never actually stabbed anyone...

[to Sabretooth]
Wolverine: All right, you egg-suckin' piece of gutter trash! You always did like pushin' around people smaller than you! Well I'M smaller! Try pushin' me!

Wolverine: Didn't anybody ever tell you, you don't kick a man when he's down, hairbag!
Hairbag: Hey, who told ya my name? You making fun of me? Nobody makes fun of Hairbag!

[Apocalypse has captured Jean Gray]
Wolverine: What are you doing with her, you pile of dog puke?
 
My favorite line from the 90s episode was from Apocalypse.

"I am the rock of the eternal shore. Crash against me and be broken!"
