re: X Men: '97 In Season Thread

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.
