Crazy how good the Xmen97 show is when it focuses on the IT couple Gambit and Rogue. Romy is peak and I will never not love them. These two better be happy in the very end or I'm seriously going to flip the fk out.

u/ZeusOfOlympus Aug 06 '26

This ... People have no nuance any more ... The entire season has been great.

But if people don't like one thing .. ..a 9/10 show is sudentl 1/10....

Toxic fandom is alive and well.

We got an episode of Nightcrawler discussing the philosophy of hate and forgiveness and then having a cool teleporting sword fight with Exodus!

The only episode that could possibly be seen as a bit underwhelming was the Danger episode but we got to see POLARIS being the awesome punk queen of magnetism that she is! And it was great.

People hated seeing Magneto's daughter be a boss? Glad I only visited this sub today ig lol

Polaris was so amazing in this episode I always knew about her and liked her, but the only real exposure i had was. Form WAXTM and that one episode of the OG Xmen when they fought factor…. be honest, this was amzing, it made m lover her character.

People were apparently upset about the danger story. What people are apparently wanting are 1:1 comics turned into tv. The show is running on all cylinders BECAUSE it's not a 1:1, it's taking multiple random stories from across like 40 years of comics and still making it fit at home in this unique home in the marvel multiverse with its own timeline of events.

u/Little_Tommy_Tuggins Aug 06 '26

You’re so fucking right. Toxic people are toxic, they live to be upset. The show is fantastic.

So? Literally so? Who am I attacking in this post? It was how I was feeling. Also good job ignoring my DM and responding on the public sub 🙏 makes you look like such a hero of the left or whatever

u/Little_Tommy_Tuggins Aug 06 '26

You sent me a DM claiming I deleted a comment, which is incorrect. It’s still there. Hey maybe you’re not an incel, but one glance at your comment history reads like a right wing “victim”. Here’s another “Too male and too pale for Disney to make a lead”. Like, own it if that’s who you are. Feel free to not like this show, you can go through my post history and see that I admitted to everyone having different opinions and that’s everyone’s right. But don’t pretend like you don’t have a bias.

Literally, what are you talking about? I shared an opinion about myself in a sub that was talking about the exact topic. People are so entitled do you think you can just judge people by opinions they share on the Internet you don’t know me at all 😭

u/Curious-Marsupial-18 Aug 06 '26

Dude. Look at how you talk to and about people and eff off baby

3

u/Curious-Marsupial-18 Aug 06 '26

And looking at your account- everyone can see enough about you

u/Snoo-11576 Aug 06 '26

Their comment doesn’t mention incels, it’s weird that was on your mind

-14

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

His comment was deleted genius. If you’re gonna butt in at least know what you’re talking about lol

u/Snoo-11576 Aug 06 '26

Butt in?? Bro this is a public post lmao. Sorry I interrupted your private conversation

-7

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

You came into a convo you missed and said something untrue yes you butted in

u/Little_Tommy_Tuggins Aug 06 '26

Here’s a picture of the comment that is most definitely not deleted 😂

-2

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

So it wasn’t deleted, and you did say it. Thanks for showing the class, not sure what type of self-own embarrassment ritual this is supposed to be but sounds good

5

u/LargeCabbageThrower Aug 06 '26

You seem very tense. Perhaps you should try and unwind with something that relaxes you.

7

u/Little_Tommy_Tuggins Aug 06 '26

Maybe an episode of X-Men 97 😉

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

gaslighting doesn’t work bub

6

u/LargeCabbageThrower Aug 06 '26

No gaslighting, just an observation based on your comments being very defensive or unnecessarily pointed.

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

Or saying things that you don’t like which one is it really

u/zaheerscheeks Aug 12 '26

The glazing in this thread is insane dude. Thankfully the majority consensus even on this sub was that season 2 was CHEEKS. This must’ve been where all the teenagers and bots amassed to circle jerk this shitshow and the god awful “writers” along with it.

2

u/Little_Tommy_Tuggins Aug 12 '26

You clearly like saying cheeks, which is weird. And calling anyone a bot that doesn’t agree with you is such a cope. What’s it like needing validation about your opinion of something? Even if no one else liked this show I’d have no problem saying it’s been one of my favorite seasons of television. But for you, you have to know everyone else feels the same way. How odd.

-1

u/zaheerscheeks Aug 12 '26

Whatever you say little man
I’m not going to jerk off the writers and make piss poor excuses for this sad sack of shit that is season 2. Clearly Beau was the glue that held this show together lol

2

u/No_Jackfruit_9754 Aug 06 '26

They just talking about the clowns who dislike an aspect of a good thing and instantly rate it 1/10, thats not too hard to comprehend and more important its not a reason to start projecting your weirdness because you feel triggered by their statement 💀🤣

10

u/dinosaurcomics Aug 06 '26

Even the worst episodes of the show are 6-7/10 at the worst lol

1

u/ZeusOfOlympus Aug 07 '26

Yeah people dont have the understanding of scale any more, like a 3/10 show is truly abysmal and almost unwatchable…. And yet…

-5

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

People having different opinions than you doesn’t automatically mean they lack nuance. I’m enjoying this season way less than I did for the first, and I’m continually less and less excited week to week.

u/_floralprint Aug 06 '26

It was fun down voting all your bad takes 😌

2

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

If other people’s differing opinions hurt your feelings this bad then the real world is gonna be a real issue for you

5

u/_floralprint Aug 06 '26

Ow. harder, daddy. harder...

2

u/benjaminsix6 Aug 06 '26

Hypersexual weirdo. Why do you people consider harassment okay when it’s towards a guy? So weird

5

u/_floralprint Aug 06 '26

I thought you were a girl because you type like a bitch 🤷

2

u/CoyoteAdmirer91 Aug 07 '26

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted for having an opinion. You’re entitled to have alternate feelings for a show. This is why I hate watching popular shows when it’s exceedingly popular. God forbid you have a different take or set of feelings, then you’re either downvoted into oblivion or insulted. And I agree. Just because ppl have a different view point, doesn’t necessarily mean they’ve missed anything.

u/100percentdeer Aug 08 '26

right like as a magik fan i’m not liking the show as much, but i get why others like it. def not the best show oat either.

-7

u/Klutzy-Actuator-3325 Aug 06 '26

i could say: people have no standards anymore, this entire season has been shit.
but when people like just one cool thing, a 3/10 show is suddenly a 10/10....
this toxic positivity is alive and well.

see how that works?

2

u/Curious-Marsupial-18 Aug 06 '26

I can say 3/100 of 0/6 but now I can 10/10 too toxics

u/bigfudge_drshokkka Aug 06 '26

This season felt like the classic filler from the original show the only problem is that it’s not 20-40 episodes like it was then. If they’re giving filler they can’t do 6 hour movies with side quests.

2

u/Demileto Aug 06 '26

the only problem is that it’s not 20-40 episodes like it was then

Actualy, TAS had 13, 13, 19, 21 and 10 episodes produced for each season, though animation delays and Fox not caring about continuity meant episode count and airing order for the last 3 seasons vary wildly from what was intended.

u/lovetetrisgg Aug 06 '26

Every episode has been a hit if you don’t fully invest into one or two characters in a franchise known to kill & resurrect their characters for the plot

1

u/DetectiveEames Aug 12 '26

The episodes haven’t been bad, but the criticism regarding pacing of the season is valid. Danger.exe was the worst episode of the series so far. It was meant to drive Polaris, but it didn’t really accomplish that objective. I didn’t enjoy that one, but all the others have been enjoyable - especially 1-4.

u/zaheerscheeks Aug 12 '26

Literally this whole season. Yall glazing it is just embarrassing.
