Ohhhh so that's where X-Men 97 is going

well Bo Deo was not kidding on Twitter when he said that X-Men 25 fatal attractions was a book that was helpful for understanding everything that was going on here because that's pretty much what we got in this episode spoilers for X-Men 97 episode 9 tolerance is extinction part two of season 1 there's one more episode left before we are finished with this show and I'm loving it I think the show is great I think this episode while being a trip also highlighted some of the things that aren't working incredibly well about show but when you put it all together I think it was still a very good episode so in this episode the band is back together Rogue is better Charles is back on Earth cable is hanging out with the team now storm hasard Powers again Forge is back in his X-Men uniform everybody is back and the big man Magneto over there is back to Classic Magneto Shenanigans uh picking up as for M turning off the I don't know electricity of the world via magnetism and also I guess just stopping the Earth's rotation I don't fully understand understand what happened in this episode of X-Men 97 I know we kind of had explained to us that the prime Sentinels are dead or tired but cannot be used there's no power Cyclops says thousands of people are dead Cyclops it's way more everybody that was in an airplane at the time this happened is dead everybody that was on like a ventilator is dead lots of people lot many people driving cars in trains it's not a good situation and a lot of people that are injured cannot be operated on because of a lack of electricity so just in general uh it a it ain't great and now the government is going to enact the Magneto protocols and I guess that means they're going to make the laser beam force field around Earth that Magneto can't get through but like I don't think that's going to solve this problem I agree with Charles when he says this will only make Magneto more angry but also if the Magneto Protocols are what they are in the book I don't think this is really going to help unless there's some other Magneto protocol which I cannot even imagine what that would be a rubber sent sen or something I mean all the Sentinels are kind of rubber cuz Magneto can't control them there's they I don't know if they're made of plastic or what but there's something that that's going on with the Sentinels G positives Back to Basics whole teams together love seeing the Dynamics together Gan and storm fun Rogue and Professor X interesting like a lot of good stuff I love that everybody is in their old outfits because for some of these characters it's like oh they're back to the good old days the'80s giant Siz X-Men outfits and then for some of them like bro it's like oh that was her bad guy outfit before and like when when she started putting that on then Magneto came to Earth I was like oh he's going to recruit some of them and she's one of them I would never have expected Sunspot was going to go with Magneto all considering you know whatever his deal is like he really so far just seems to kind of do whatever Jubilee does and I can see a world where Jubilee goes with Magneto and Sunspot goes with her and that's kind of interesting because one of the things I think is interesting here and this becomes very clear when you look at the fatal attractions comic IC that this is based on in the comic Magneto has a team of acolytes he's recruiting mutants to join on asteroid M and it's this you know super team including Colossus he joins but there's also like you know teleporters and people that can make your powers better and stuff they're all kinds of superpowers rusting skids I think join up and I guess when this started I like when Magneto was like everyone join my team for a second I started going okay so he's going to go he's not going to go he's going to go he's not going to go is going to go she's not going to go like splitting the X-Men down the middle and then Rogue went oh like yeah absolutely Sunspot went and I'm like if you say so sir whatever it is you do go do it and then that was it and I was like this is not enough to do whatever Magneto wants it seemed like Magneto was okay with destroying the whole planet Earth by messing with our magnetism and I assume that would like destroy you know so many things about Earth the atmosphere I don't think would stick around for too long like it would just be very bad uh and if that if he did that that Rogue and Sunspot would just be hanging out on base with Magneto going like we did a good job I'm glad everyone is dead like I understand that they're like mad but I I guess what I'm missing from Magneto is that third step of the plan which is like make asteroid M turn off all the power get a new team of mutants just full you know we're going to restart humankind we're going to let them all die and then we're going to repopulate but like get them bring them onto the asteroid and then you know let Humanity suffer uh but it does not feel like I mean listen nothing against Rogan Sunspot they're very good mutants uh they don't feel like the only two mutants you would need beside Magneto to do something I mean maybe Magneto thought he was just going to get everybody like he was like I don't even need to you know recruit like blob in those guys I don't I don't need you know Brotherhood team I will just walk right in and like storm will be like yes please obviously I was depowered and very angry about this Cyclops be like yes please you killed my real wife or whatever was going on there and um that will just they'll automatically fill up the r I'll be I'd have to turn people away be like sorry morph I heard what you said about me a rogue messing around in the danger room wasn't super hyped about that enjoy dying on Earth with Professor yeah I guess I guess these teams are interesting I was kind of expecting different teams and the problem I don't want to say problem because I don't think it was bad or anything but maybe one of the issues that I think with this episode is it feels like the last scene was written first you know beating Magneto and then Wolverine stabs Magneto Magneto pulls all the Adam an out a wolverine skeleton and that is right out of Fatal Attraction X-Men 25 but then a lot of the stuff leading up to it didn't fully make sense like in that issue there is this away team and this home team of mutants but the home team isn't doing anything but in this they had to invent something else for the home team to do which was deal with Bastion but morph brings this up when they go to Bastion they're like I thought there'd be no Sentinels I thought that was the whole thing was Magneto was turning off all the power or something so now there can't be there are Sentinels too woof did not expect that if you didn't know there would be Sentinels why did you send more than like two guys why was it this the whole te was just you know cable Beast you figure it out you know just put a collar on him he probably he probably can't even walk because he's half Sentinel or something he's probably just like lying on the floor just throw the collar on him we'll be good everybody else were going up to space to kill Magneto but I guess they knew there would still be Sentinels if you know you have to create these two teams the blue and the gold team which I like like they're calling the blue and gold team I guess the the big thing is we wanted Wolverine to kill Magneto and we wanted Magneto to rip the adamantium out of Wolverine skeleton like he does in the comic however in the comic you are either on the team that's killing Magneto or not there is no other team in a group where there are two teams obviously Wolverine's on the other one right like he's not on the team with to Magneto like when Magneto is like I'm going to kill all of you and then Wolverine's like good no blabbering and the thing start magneo starts throwing of a wolverine Wolverine's like cutting through him I'm like cutting through with what the metal hands and no point through this whole thing this whole fight it does it seem like it occurs to Magneto that he might be able to get Wolverine in fact the Wolverine may become uh quite a liability on this team but now he's just like I guess I'll just have to Rogue fight him because otherwise what can I Magneto do against Wolverine the manade of metal other people you maybe don't want to send to certain ones um sending cable to fight Mr Sinister seems like a really bad idea in hindsight that I feel like I was really focused on the Wolverine thing when I was watching this this didn't quite occur to me but this idea that like let's send cable to fight him is is it's a good point sending Jean to fight Sinister seems like it's not a great idea considering he still has some sort of psychic whatever with them and also we have no idea what Mr sinister's Powers are it's just kind of whatever which is cool I like sister in this I like him slinking around turning into a little Shadow and like Jean just throwing bowling balls at him that was a very fun fight yeah I don't want to tell Charles or Scott or whoever made this team how to do their job but if you have the exact teams they have and this is just for fun who would you who would you send where so Magneto obviously cannot be in the same room as Wolverine we're not sending Wolverine to space I think we want to send our telepaths to space right we you know what of course yeah we want Jean in space because we want someone who's going to be able to take that helmet off Magneto from a distance and Jean's the only character that can conceivably do that besides maybe cable with his telepathy but he wasn't using it here Nightcrawler should be able to but he wasn't but we need Nightcrawler to teleport for the asteroid M thing that's fine like that that's a play however I also think Nightcrawler may be really valuable on the earth team because and if we're switching Nightcrawler and Jean that makes sense now because um all we need to do is put this little caller on Bastion he doesn't know how close Nightcrawler like he he doesn't really have anything if Nightcrawler just help behind him puts the collar on him done absolutely finished I think you want beasted space because he's just agile and it's you know he's going to be good at fighting Magneto uh I also feel like you want to send like Jubilee going to space makes sense uh cuz it'll be hard for Sunspot to fight her uh for that same reason I think maybe sending Nightcrawler to fight Rogue would be helpful but they don't really do that that's why I think like Beast versus Rogue would be a fun fight and also I think Rogue like Beast seems like the way they've set him up he's just kind of like able like he's just a a popular guy he just he isn't the mad scientist he in the comics like you figure Rogue would have a hard time killing him storm and forge on earth makes sense morph I think morph you send to space just because you've got more options cuz what you're going to use more for I mean yeah a you can use more for super speed or whatever but B you can use more for psychological manipulation without the helmet on morph can turn into anyone you turn into Magneto's wife that died or something he can turn into the Scarlet Witch or Quicksilver or Polaris if she's part of these morph can turn into leech and be like Magneto stop don't destroy Earth leech doesn't like it when you destroy Earth and even if that's not going to convince Magneto because probably won't it'll give somebody else like Nightcrawler enough time to teleport behind and get him is there anybody who's like really well suited I mean like Scott's really good at killing Sentinels like I think Scott would be good to have in that fight against the Sentinels I think sending Scott to space makes sense I also think Scott and Jee need to be in the same place otherwise one of them may screw it up you know and like we saw that and that when they split up you're like okay well that's a mistake right here so yeah I think the Sentinel away team needs to be maybe like two people I think you would send Forge and storm Wolverine that's really it everybody Gose up to space and Nightcrawler you said Nightcrawler with them too Nightcrawler and Wolverine get along they're like they're like buddies night crawler gets along with everybody also morph other psychological manipulation pretend to be bion's bomb or something I don't know just we've got to get more creative with morph because if morph has incredible capabilities that we are not utilizing at all if it's not superpower stuff it's psychological manipulation stuff yeah I mean overall I thought this episode was fun I'm excited to see where the the finale goes never been a humongous fan of that one thing that happens after this uh but I'm curious to see what what this is just a couple little nitpicks um when they said Nightcrawler is going to teleport everybody to Mir Island I that made my brain explode uh just as and I don't want to like nitpick the show and like try to say like that's not how this guy's power works because I do think with the X-Men you do have a lot way in terms of like this guy's power actually doesn't usually do this but like like if you could say Jean can do the thing in the last episode episode 8 where she picks up the picture and looks at it and sees bastion's past like that's not always one of Jean's Powers but you can find examples of her using it in the books or shows or something so it's not like out of nowhere with Curts outside of really extreme circumstances I have always always understood he could teleport about 2 miles within his ey line like he has to see where he's going and it's he can't teleport that far and if he does he'll probably die from it like if you were teleporting from New York to Scotland or wherever m Island is Ireland I can't remember which one it is uh mctaggert I guess so Scotland if you were making that teleporting yeah this would Kurt would die but also you have the black bird so I don't know why they even said well Kurt's going to teleport us over there feel like Kurt would be like uh listen I would would love to but a I can't we have like eight other teleporters that could do that I'm not one of them B we have a jet still the jet hasn't exploded yet this episode it's going to don't worry but it hasn't exploded yet uh morph turning into the Hulk again cool that morph can do this morph do this every time be the Hulk there's no need to be Colossus when you can be the Hulk there's no need to be blob when one of the options was the Hulk like it's just too good which is part of why like I like a shape shifter who's a little silly and I like the shape shifter where the rules are all over the place like Mystique can like generate extra arms if she really needs to but it's hard or like maybe make a second head but like morph can just do whatever they want and uh I don't know I mean having read the Exiles books recently is something I'm doing for the uh other video on this channel about the Marvel snap character I like that version of morph more where it's not like turning into famous X-Men characters although I enjoy the the cameos and stuff I do think it's fun but it's more of like him looking like different like cartoon characters and you know basically acting like Plastic Man or like the mask or someone like that being his very animated character in real life interacting with these guys I don't know I think it's fun but when it comes to like what K he do I don't know it'd be great if we figured out morph's powers for the second season sinister's kind of the same way it's like man the powers I like with Sinister that you don't know what his powers are because he's just there whatever he got that day like cuz sinister is not a mutant he made a deal with apocalypse to get technology that he used to experiment and use that to create you know mutant powers and and stuff like that that's why he can regenerate his psychic abilities all that comes from experimentation he's done so it's like I guess he experimented on the shadow man or something he experimented on Ebon from static shock I guess good for him oh yeah this a little nitpick uh when Professor X wakes up and he gets in his regular wheelchair and just Wheels out of his bedroom like there's so much Rubble in the Mansion sleep in the living room buddy we there's no way you could navigate this it the whole place is destroyed I I I just thought it was very funny cuz party was like oh why is he not using the big cool chair and it's like oh that chair is broken he does get another one later so I guess he that also gets destroyed man property damage collateral damage in the X-Men universe is unreal luckily in episode 3 when they fought Maddie all her stuff just went back to normal at the end but that's why like when they made that Airbnb I was like man you got to watch out though cuz cuz every 4 days the Mansion explodes and everybody goes to jail or something like it's not a great place to live uh I liked when Magneto came down from space and had the Aurora Borealis behind him that was cool I like that little detail and I love the joke about the black leather this is something that I brought up in my Deadpool and Wolverine wish list which is just a line that I've always wanted in one of these which is someone to do the what do you prefer yellow spandex line backwards and for it to be Scott uh and uh they did so it's good I I still think I don't know how like I feel like fige has all the scripts and especially if he's seeing these two things he would check to see if this is in bold but like I wouldn't mind to see this joke of Deadpool also I don't know now where do we go from here I think that it seems like the onslaught story is playing out right now which will end up being Professor Xavier and Magneto have like a mind meld Magneto is Kos afterwards but what also happens and again this is just what it is in the comics but it's a psychic imprint of Magneto and Professor X's worst thoughts that like exists in Professor X's head and then manifests itself and turns into this big giant purple and red monster guy who doubles the ongoing effects of everyone near him which is you know a very very strong power I think he's um I think Onslaught is cool I think it's like kind of boring in comparison I guess my thing with Onslaught Onslaught feels like the perfect example of like cool design cool story I don't care about if I never saw Onslaught again I would not care but uh you know it serves a purpose which is kind of why it's like I mean it's going to be Onslaught but circling back and looking at some of the other story lines we've played with this season Life Death Inferno like what if what happens cuz what happens with the onslaught is they fight Onslaught everybody fights Onslaught and then they all die except they're saved by Franklin Richards brought into a pocket Dimension or something and then they all come back later but there's like an era where there's a power vacuum that exists what if they do that with the X-Men just the X-Men although you know what throw all the Avengers in there too why why not get Captain America get Spider-Man but what if there is a power vacuum like that because all of the X-Men get sent through like The Siege perilis kind of like in the beginning of the Outback era and then are you know kind of left they all end up in Australia or something just doing their own thing but they maybe they don't know who they are yet or they're hiding out for a little bit because they're scared of what the Public's going to do to them so then what if X-Men 997 season 2 or X-Men 98 or whatever we're going to call it is like a different crew of mutants so like you know Colossus magic I don't really care about any of those those two though they need to happen now I guess it would be like Colossus Magic Angel Archangel psylock you could do some of the other you know you do multiple men you can do strong guy where is strong guy by the way he's over there obviously over my shoulder but like he could have helped you know they should have called him he was like bulk up kid we're going to war I'm sure he thought he was going to war he thought all the Josan mutants would be called for something but they just never did hopefully they'll be in the finale I I still think there's a chance we do see like a big mutant fight problem is every just kind of segment like I think if there was a big fight on josha or in New York or something I'd be like I'll buy it but they're in the Galapagos Islands and they're in space now asteroid M maybe like crashes down to earth and then that could become Utopia or something then you get a big fight there I don't know I don't know what to expect from the fidale I really don't I think we'll probably see Onslaught and I think the a big Cliffhanger could be that a lot of the mutants are presumed dead but not dead and in the same way as the the death of the mutant story line I don't know that could be cool or maybe Onslaught does no more mutants wanted somebody to do that too Onslaught with like the psychic energy of onslaught would depower bazillions of mutants when when Onslaught is destroyed and then you have the decimation where there's like 200 mutant with powers on earth and the X-Men have to deal with that like I think that could be cool as a storyline to develop in the next season that could end with hope or you could have Hope Summer be part of it do Avengers versus X-men I don't know these are all options uh Marvel I'm sure they' they've written it all they've they it seems like they've produced the second season already and the third season is happening so we're definitely going to get a lot of this uh but yeah I'm curious how quickly they want to move through stories considering like if they do 10 years per season we're currently in like the '90s 2000 so we' only got two more of those before we bump up against current stories so I don't know but I like it it's great I love it it's a great show this episode's a little weird a little fast but still fun and cool that line the storm and jeene said to each other was cool yeah it was cool cool
