Wow, it doesn’t suck!

I hate Disney too because they exclusively produce garbage these days, and I FULLY expected this to suck mutie balls, but I’m pleasantly surprised!

The animation is by far the worst thing about it. It’s so fucking cheap looking. There’s no defending it. Moving on!

PROS: I am shocked Cyclops has come off so well. That-and that alone-is an improvement on the original. I expected them to make Scott look dumb in an effort to make Storm look better, but they actually made them both look great.

I’m an X-Men expert and this story feels unpredictable. It’s similar to TAS in that I can see where they’re mixing and matching elements from but I don’t know where they’re going with it. I like that.

Of the characters with new looks:

1) Magneto looks fucking terrible. The giant M costume never looked good but the Bon Jovi hairdo really makes it look ultra stupid.

2) Morph’s new svelte look is out-matched in retardedness only by his voice. He looks more like the Exiles morph, but not in a good way. They really are taking too many liberties with him. A character named “Morph” should change, sure, but he’s so far off-model that he’s no longer the same Morph from TAS.

3) Storm’s haircut does look dumb with her white Jim Lee costume. The mohawk is from the comics, yeah, but it only looks good with certain costumes. It’d look better if her costume was the black version from the Fall of the Mutants era. Although, the voice actress sounds so creaky and old, the mohawk probably wouldn’t feel right.

4) At least Bishop got a good haircut.

Voices: I really miss the original voices for Magneto and Scott. Jean Grey’s original actress now voices Valerie Cooper and she sounds like she wouldn’t be able to pull off the Jean voice nowadays. I heartily miss Jubilee’s original voice. What a dumb move, caving to some vague PC bullshit before anyone even complained. And Sunspot can’t act for shit.

Overall, I’m happy. The animation sucks but the show is pretty good.
