What's /tv/'s opinions on the 90s X-Men cartoon? Been going through it recently and it's better (if undeniably flawed) than what I've read about it.

I can't remember much of it since the show was from when I was pre-literate, but I was quite fond of Evolution in the 2000s. Revisited it a few years ago and... cartoons are for children.

Not gonna lie.

Nostalgia for the Xmen cartoon, as well as the comics, is the primary reason why I enjoyed Days of Future Past, and am looking forward to Apocalypse.

MCU may be the superior cinematic universe, but, Xmen did it first, and a bit longer. And their payoff is here: Apocalypse. Even if it doesn't do well, or could be the last Xmen movie, at least they reached Apocalypse. Marvel still has a few more years before they can do Thanos, and Darkseid..... yeah. you get the idea.

tl;dr I have fond memories of the Xmen cartoon

Note: There is a viewing order to watching the animated series from the second season onwards. Season 1 is pretty straight forward, but season 2 onwards has a screwed up chronology. I'll post the correct chronology when I find it

>MCU may be the superior cinematic universe
In what aspect?
>>
>>68932758
Amount of good movies, perhaps?

I mean

Number of good movies (MCU)

Iron Man
The Winter Soldier
Avengers 1
Civil War
Thor (I liked this one personally)
Ant-Man

Number of Good movies (X-men)

X2
Xmen 1
Deadpool
First Class
Days of Future Past

Arguably, they;re about even... but then I remember Xmen also had the worst Marvel movie: Xmen origins wolverine. Which is a lot worse than MCU's worst: Thor the dark world. Which, that wasn't THAT bad. The wolverine movie was far worst.

Also MCU had the higher budget, sometimes the higher stakes, and, atm, the bigger popularity. So I would say MCU might seem to be the superior cinematic universe but, technically, I think they could be about equal.

I guess it just depends on whether you're an Avengers person, or an Xmen person.

Also the MCU has more varied hero types and better music. And MCU has more A to B listers, while Xmen is full of C listers

TELL ME ABOUT APOCALYPSE WHY DOES HE WEAR THE MASK
>>
>>68933164
That's his face.
>>
>>68932498
I think it was great, very close to the contemporary comics. Also I think you should do this at /co/. That's what that shithole is there for.
>>
>>68933164
Poccy doesn't wear a mask, pussytits.

>>68933209
>>68933279
HAHAHAHH THATS HIS REAL FACE? NO WONDER HES SO MAD ALL THE TIME

>>68932944
I guess it's a matter of opinion, I don't quite agree with yours, but that doesn't make a series better than the other, it's all very relative to our personal taste in movies and not franchises.

He's not really that angry though.

yeah, it's more contempt that anger
>>
>>68933356
I agree. Thats whats I use the word "may be"

I sometimes think that the MCU is better than the Xmen universe but... godammit I love Days of Future Past as much the Winter Soldier. Both came out at the same time and really showed what the respective Avengers and Xmen universes could do. And I've been with the Xmen movies longer.

So I think they could also be equal. It indeed is a matter of opinion.

This tbqh.

oh he's simmering mate

>>68932498
They changed to Disney animators in later seasons. That fucking sucked.
>>
>>68932498
It was awesome, I was like 10 at the time. Best time of my life.
The last seasons went full meme tho.
>That Jubilee - Logan episode
>>
>>68933594
Actually they changed to a Phillipine studio in the last one.

The rest of the seasons were by Fox.

The last few episodes were terribly animated, but still comfy. It says something when, even when the last episode of the series looked terrible, the story was still p. good.
>>
Can't you Americans make an animated series the whole history of the X-men?
What's stopping you?
>>
>>68933711
>>68933594
Out of curiosity, if I don't mind the animation of this series, will I be okay with watching 90s Spiderman?

The arc where he turns into 6 armed beast was one of my favorites as a kid.
>>
>>68932498
the voice acting is hammy, the art direction is flat and the animation is terrible with characters constantly going off model and changing sizes shot to shot. couldn't get past the first episode and can't understand how anyone could
>>
>>68935264
Its all in plot and writing which was GOAT. It was second only to B:TAS
>>
>>68935264
At the time it looked pretty good.

JEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAN!!!!!

Shiar/Phoenx saga > Apocalypse saga > Magnetos History > Days of future past saga > wolverine/alpha flight > sentinels/genosha > Omega red > Sauron/Savage lands
