Just started watching this today. Put it on as background at work, and haven't gotten much done this afternoon
quote:

Rogue's voice is a little too high-pitched

For some reason, I hear Bobby Hill and now I can't unhear it.
Goblin Queen made up for Rogue not havin dat arse. When she got up from that chair at the top of the stairs was Sharon Stone-esque in a X-Men cartoon.
I skipped the Mojo part. Already knew where that was headed, and always disliked the Mojo storylines. The console and cartridge were a nice throwback to the Sega Genesis X-Men game, which to this day is still my favorite game of all time even over the X-Men arcade game.
I just finished Ep 5... frickin awesome.

Caught up and good lord... Yeah, the couple of yall that said this is the best adaptation of the comics nailed it. So much going on, it's awesome.

The stories are rushed, and they did take a little more time in the original series to flesh out the arcs. DoFP was only 2 episodes, but AoA was 4 episodes, Phoenix Saga was 5, and Dark Phoenix was 4. I wonder if it was a bit of a hurried attempt by Disney to put out some solid X-Men content true to the source material that also plays on the nostalgia of the target audience. No BS, no DEI, no "appealing to more demographics." Stuff that would draw a number of us back in that were getting fed up with having garbage content that crapped all over the source material.
