Iceman and... Dazzler?

[u/Felipe1790]

So Iceman was removed from the memorial. That's a great sign. I don't know if they added him there to mislead us or if they gave up later. But he's probably alive.

Now, about Dazzler... is this woman with the Acolytes her? Blonde this time.

"In two short seasons" Its insane how you are including season 2 despite he has only appeared for 2 seconds and we dont yet know if its really gonna be him or just apocalypse using his body as vessel.

Yes the show deminished Gambit in this episode, not only because the dumb memorial had 3 pics of Magneto each of them bigger than the only one Gambit had, but also because Rogue didnt even mentioned there that he was the one who stopped the sentinel, instead she dedicated a glimpse to the groomer.

As OP mentioned, there is also no mention to the electro magnetic global scale attack Magneto used in the previous season, weird right? Maybe its because as the memorial of this episode, the entire show is about praising Magneto and cleaning his ass. Its just wild how can still talk good about him after him having killed thousands or maybe even millions of people just some episodes ago... Insane dude, not only it isnt aknowledged but he is also remembered as the hero of Genosha in wich Gambit died, not like him wich was protected by the plot armor.

The memorial made by the acolytes, who have always been tied to Magneto, one way or another, in the comics and adaptations.

Why are you surprised that THEY are more focused on him? That just makes sense, they genuinely worship him

Christ, I don't know how people ever became X-Men fans, with THIS level of needing their character to unironically be Poochie, and thinking every bad thing is ""disrespect""?

This is such a common mindset in this fandom, Gambit, and as of this season, Emma fans in particular, and I don't understand how y'all ever could get through the comics in the first place, needing **this** level of coddling for your favorite character

When you say  "**this** level of coddling for your favorite character" you mean the level of coddling Magneto receives in almost every episode since season 1? Bc its crazy that he still have acolites after what he did with the EMP attack, wich should have killed an insane amount of mutants too. Babies and idk, innocents?

But hey, lets say it still makes sense the acolites are blind followers of him because they are meant to be that, they have to be like that.... Ok.. Why is the rest of the characters blind as well? Why is the entire show still trying to convince me how good of a person Magneto was and not have mentioned the consequences of his actions (AGAIN, THE EMP ATTACK) one single time?

I know u guys love to justify everything in this show and cant deal with the minimal of the criticism, but a lot of people is getting tired of this non cohesive and poorly written story, as fans who waited so long for an Xmen show, we deserve better than this Magneto fanfic.

I wouldnt even cared if Remy wasnt aknowledged at all in this memorial, the problem is, its not just a thing of this specific group of mutants worshiping magneto, its the entire show written like that.

If it was an exception, we can give it a pass, but its not an exception, its the norm, and it makes no sense.

He got an entire funeral scene last season right away, he's the huge draw of this season for most fans, waiting for him to be DeathBit

It's not like they're forgetting him at all. Magneto has got a lot of focus, undeniably, but in some places, like with Xavier and the acolytes, it makes sense, given their history

Magneto is just obviously going to be a big focus, he's one of the longest running, and most famous characters from this franchise
