🎬 In this FilmSpeak video essay we discuss Why X-Men 97 Succeeds where the Fox X-Men FAILED, how X-Men 97 is the Blueprint for the MCU and what the MCU can learn from X-Men 97 given the fact that X-Men 97 is perfect!
🔔 SUBSCRIBE: ru-vid.com?sub_con...
X-Men 97: The Blueprint for the MCU's X-Men Reboot. In this video, we delve into why X-Men 97 is not just a nostalgic revival but a crucial blueprint for how the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) should reintroduce the X-Men into their cinematic universe. After years of the Fox X-Men films shying away from their comic book roots, X-Men 97 serves as a reminder of the core values that the X-Men represent: equality, individualism, and embracing one's uniqueness.
We explore how the vibrant visuals, dynamic colors, and the heightened nature of a comic book should be fully embraced in the MCU's approach to the X-Men. Gone are the days of sneering at "yellow spandex;" it's time for the X-Men to shine brightly on the big screen.
Moreover, we emphasize the importance of hiring creatives like Beau DeMayo, the creator and lead writer of X-Men 97, to helm these projects. With their life experiences and specificity, they can effectively bring to life the subtext of the X-Men and the struggles of marginalized communities, adding depth and authenticity to the storytelling.
Furthermore, we discuss the significance of the X-Men's messaging and their role in pushing for more progressive politics. This has always been a cornerstone of the X-Men's narrative, and it's essential that the MCU continues this tradition, addressing important social issues head-on.
Join us as Griffin (@griffschiller) explores why X-Men 97 is not just a revival of a beloved animated series but a guiding light for the MCU's X-Men reboot, paving the way for a more inclusive and socially conscious approach to superhero storytelling. He also explores why X-Men 97 is a perfect X-Men adaptation, why X-Men 97 is the best MCU show, why X-Men 97 is a masterpiece, and why X-Men 97 succeeds where the Fox X-Men Failed

What do you guys think of X-Men 97?🤔 Are you loving it? Should it be the blueprint for reintroducing X-Men into the MCU? Comment below!💥

@toomuch535 Месяц назад

No you internet guys have to stay where you guys at.You guys have hundred thousand marvel this marvel that.Marvel from 2014 gave you guys that don't know nothing about marvel what you guys wanted.Dumb down content for you guys to understand.Thats why you guys love james gunn and gotg crap so much.That a lot you guys gateway to marvel.And I'm saying "You guys" aka the so called Mcu fan cause y'all didn't grow up with these characters. Ive seen it real time when gotg1 came out and the fake fans jumped on the bandwagon.They didn't need to disrespect the characters for the internet crowd with XMen 97. I've watch you guys for 3yrs with videos "I'm done with marvel". Y'all have to stand on business.The real Marvel heads ain't go nowhere.We just want our characters that we grew up with and the lore of the Marvel universe to be done with respect.The internet get the Marvel head's and the Mcu fan mixed up.Real marvel fans(not all) don't do fandom and geek things like every other fandom.We dont make a hundred thousand videos about a character and we are not a vocal fanbase.We let our pockets speak if we don't like something.Xmen 97 is the number one show and didn't need internet hype.But i think Marvel get the picture.So for the internet geek content creators and the so called Mcu fan dont let the door hit you where it split you.And for the new fans don't come into it like the Mcu fan.Learn about the history of the marvel universe,the lore and history of the characters.💯

The new show is good but is moving the plot too fast. And is introducing woke ideas. Like the morph "binary" thing. And don't explain what happend with Charles. Wen the old show ended he was going to Space with Lilandra. The show start and Charles was killed of camera by the friends of humanity? And some combos don't make any sence like Gambit charging the claws of Wolverine? His arms should blow up. That is not the way gambit's Powers work

@MichaelNgTzeWei Месяц назад

It's faithful to X-TAS and doesn't take itself seriously. Pretty much the same vein as a Saturday Morning 90's cartoons but with some updated anime spunk added in. The removal of Charles I think is to show off Cyclops (Scott Summers). I won't spoil the plot to the normies on youtube but wait and see folks. It gets good.

Fox had Wolverine as the main protagonist and leader while they had Cyclops be a whiny leader with no effective tactics, however, in the original comics, it is Cyclops with the tactics and strategies which is part of his power. Wolverine might be stronger due to healing factor and adamantium skeleton but lacks moral strength due to his tragic story. Wolverine is older than all of them but has suffered alot.

It's remarkable that in three episodes that just fly by, they somehow have nuance & depth even as it's such a frenetic pace. I think this is the best the X-Men have ever been beyond comic form, in all media. When you see the popularity of this show, it's a difficult thing to transition this to live-action...UNLESS you really just go all out in paying tribute to the source material. To not be afraid of getting weird, melodramatic, horny (how much of MCU fare is vanilla romance at best?) Fantasy needs to have all aspects of human interaction to really work. And the fact that they haven't depowered anyone (we know Storm isn't depowered considering her art that they're drawing from) And how this is not just a 'Wolverine' show - I love Logan but the X-Men are more than just him. Seeing even Cyclops be who he's supposed to be - everyone working on this show is just getting it right. And to be frank, if there's a way to build a bridge with the guy they fired - they should. He clearly understood the assignment.

@leeharrison8222 Месяц назад

I was thinking the same thing. The writer, Beau, GETS IT. I don't know what happened that led to his departure from working with Marvel or Disney, but if there is a way to have him pay his dues, and come back at an appropriate time in the future to resume work on writing more episodes into the future of this series, Marvel & Disney would do well to explore such options. I honestly think this '97 series captures the essence of the Xmen quite a bit better than the '92 version (which I watched and enjoyed all those years ago) and any of the other animated series and fox movies (though the 2nd and 3rd Wolverine movies were IMO very good). Honestly, Beau did such justice to the characters and the collective spirit of the Men.... Some have said Xmen '97 is a love letter to fans of the '92 animated series. I agree, but even more, it's a love letter to us fans of the graphic novels, who ate up the Xmen comic books (and Xcalibur, XFactor, etc.) going back literally decades. It strikes just the right tone and brings forth these characters, their relationships, and the socio-political landscape of their time, in their full dimensions, allowing us as the audience to become invested and feel the weight and impact of each episode and each character's respective storyline. There is power in stories and Beau wields his pen like its his own mutant power.

Cyclops has been one of my favourite X-Men since I started reading Uncanny in the 1970s at issue 107, first appearance of The Starjammers and the X-Men vs the Imperial Guard, the real beginning of the Trial Of The Phoenix storyline, then continued in issue 108, both issues focused heavily on Cyclops' past, his and Jean's relationship and how Christopher Summers became a space pirate named Corsair, Cyclops was really the first X-Man I really knew anything about beyond his being a superhero, so I kind of had a connection to him and his storyline from the first time reading the title. Then issue 109 had the first appearance of Alpha Flight, as as a Canadian I was an instant fan of that team, collected Alpha Flight every month when it started in 1983 too. Those three issues got me hooked monthly on Uncanny X-Men. I stopped reading comics for awhile in the 90s when it became a collector fad, they were more about eye candy and flash or clickbait storylines with no real substance or consequences, killing main characters only to bring them back once the shock wore off became the norm, Death of Superman ring any bells? Or every issue having to come with a dozen variant covers? Yeah, people really thought they could buy as many issues of those comics, resell them one day and retire to a private island. Idiots, they're the reason those comics are practically worthless now.

Look, it's nearly impossible to dislike X-Men, even when they're poorly represented. The character are inherently cool regardless of how misinterpreted they are; with that being said, the FoX-Men movies never did it for me since Cyclops was always my favorite. I was roughly 3 when X-Men came out in 2000 and I already liked Cyclops due to reruns of the 90s cartoon and the cool ToyBiz action figures my older brother had. It took 24 years, but the character finally got his due outside of the comics and seeing so many videos like this one, has been a joy

I look forward to watching this video. I was unsure about whether I should watch this show but after just hearing the start of this video, I have decided to watch the show. Look forward to seeing the rest of the video.

I'm a 80s👶 who grew up in the 90s & I loved the OG XTAS. @1st I was scared to watch XTAS97 cuz I thought no matter what they did it wouldn't be able to compare to the original. Why remake something that was perfect. But I was bn selfish. That's the point of the comic book medium. Characters and themes get passed on to new artist and they try to take the story to new heights and the fans decide what stays canon and what gets retconned. Plus I've been hearing nothing but good stuff

A little off topic (though the topic is amazing) I noticed in 17:00 something I didn't notice before in the Days of Future Past movie, and it's that they gave Logan his actual FANGS. Something that was always missing in all of the live action versions. He is supposed to have fangs, a bis smaller (though not much) than Sabertooth's, but they are still prominent regardless.

@naejimba Месяц назад

So I've watched four episodes... there is good and bad. The action scenes are much better, I love this version of Cyclops, Storm is a badass and I'm glad they are showing just how powerful she is, Bishop was a good choice to keep around, etc. There is a lot of the writing that is good, however, there are a lot of places where the dialogue falls flat. It's really just dialogue in places that bothers me. I also don't care for this version of Beast; there is a certain eloquence to the character, so if you make him overly verbose that can be lost. Sure, he loves to quote and reference, but you don't remind your audience someone is smart by making them say big words, but rather by saying something insightful. Sometimes less is more. I never really cared for Jubilee, but I'm glad she seems a bit more competent; in fact, I'm glad Jean isn't fainting every three seconds while Scott screams "Jean!" and catches her. These two characters kind of annoyed me in the older version... less so now and I hope they are actually developed a bit more and have arcs. I also never cared for Morph, I agree he needed to change a bit, but I'm not really sold on the new version either. Also not sold on Sunspot yet; they haven't done much with him but I think better dialogue would have helped.

@carbodude5414 8 часов назад

I think the reason Cyclops has been dissed for so long is, other than Wolverine being so popular, js cause having laser eyes, and _only_ laser eyes, is perceived as something that's "lame" like how Angel can only fly Laser vision is commonly an extra superpower on top of other powers i.e. Superman and his copycats, so Cyclops being limited to just that one power makes him look inadequate by comparison

Nick Cage would be perfect as MCU's Mister Sinister. If you saw Renfield where he plays Dracula, he looks like Sinister and even kinda acts how you think Sinister would act, with a bit of tongue-in-cheek comedy while still pulling off intimidating and being a gentleman at the same time.

The respect on Storm , “Omega level threat detected”, okay period. She absolutely shredded her scene/fight (against the sentinels) with no assistance. I saw thee, WEATHER WITCH, for the first time. I’m not sure what they’ve been giving us these past decades. But that’s the Storm I know in my heart. Storm should be just as lit as Ms. Jean and Ms. Scarlet. Period. Storm shows that she is an omega, an omega with CONTROL 🧘🏽🙏🏽. No shade to, Ms. Jean.
