Wolverine 50+ years in the future and still a bad ass old grampa. take a look at how he performs when hes old and gray. please comment on what you think of old man wolverine.
No one ever talks about how when Rogue sends Bishop back to this time period and Forge tells him he can try again and again that Forge is casually staring at a tank containing Wolverine's freaking skeleton...
I always remembered that episode and loved it. Just the small details of this show made it amazing. The shows now are little more than a cash grab with boring writing and weak plots.
I love how Wolverine sounds genuinely scared when he sees Nimrod, and Wolverine is never scared. Had no idea who this villain was when I first saw the episode, then did some research. Yeah, I'd be crapping myself at just the mention of his name if I was a mutant
@@leonardobraynen1524 In the comics, Wolverine was terrified. He knows he can withstand pretty much any physical attack and be fine, but Proteus messed with his mind and reality, and Wolverine's always been terrified of losing his mind, turning bestial, and struggled with telling fantasy from reality due to how many times his minds been messed with.
Wolverine has always been more afraid of himself. He's scared that one day he'll completely surrender to his inner beast and lose his humanity forever. And while he says he doesn't want to become an animal you can tell there is another part of himself that desperately wants to give into his wild instincts.
Damn I remember this episode and being like "wow 2010 is far away, 2021 is REALLY far away, now here we are, past it. As usual though, tech is way behind what people guessed it would be.
Yeah, as a kid in the 90s, I thought we’d have flying cars, hoverboards, and the ability to teleport to places. It’s 2024 now and we’re nowhere near what my younger self thought. 😂 My imagination was off the charts back then.
That roar by Wolverine @ the end tho was his most ferocious in this series or any other. He was pissed!!! "I'm gonna remember this rookie!! Roaaaaarrrrrr!!!!!"
I thought he put up a pretty decent fight for someone beyond his 90's. Take it in context. If your grandfather when running across the room after getting squeezed by a giant robot and got up from from being shot several times? I don't know... Seems pretty tough to me.
@@kyleappleton9004 I agree. We're on the verge of WW3, the closest to a civil war here in the US than we've ever been since the first civil war, and the Globo/Commies on the verge of taking over the West. Yeah....definitely a dark future we're heading in.
@@kyleappleton9004 Its now 2024 and darker than ever and will only get worse. Things will happen in the next 4 years that you wouldn't believe if I told you now and it won't be because of of Trump because he will never be allowed to win another election.
Well, Wolverine is the _King_ of one-liners in the show. You'd expect him to want to be more than a _Pawn_ in the machinations of the universe. All that yelling is going to leave him pretty _Horse_ (hoarse), though.
These old 90's shows were awesome. The writing and animation was great. They really put effort into these shows, unlike the ones today. X-Men, Batman the animated series, Spider-Man, Superman, these were all amazing. As a kid I would never sleep in Saturday mornings. I would get up just for these shows. For years I even recorded them on VHS with my old VCR. I had dozens of tapes, each with about 8-10 episodes on them.
@@zagreus5773 I'm sure you like the modern stuff because the plots are dumbed down for people like you to understand. And the "old animation" was drawn. It took far more effort than the computer generated cookie cutter crap they put out today. These older shows actually used source material as a basis for their stories. Modern shows are too busy pushing an agenda or trying not to offend some snowflake like you to bother with a story that's relatively interesting. But since the bulk of shows nowadays are directed towards toddlers I'm sure that you enjoy them.
Many were cool, but many others were forgettable. I really think that, from a reasonable distance, good and bad will even out. If anything, I think the state of animation seems better than in any decade but the 90s (I am partial, though, I grew up on the X-Men, Batman and the other shows).
These shows were awesome because the writing was interlaced natural human tendencies underlined with positive values. Wolverine was in rage because he was not able to protect his little sister (remorse). Wolverine is then embarrassed because he is too old to fight but gives the mission to Bishop (acceptance followed by sacrifice). When you give a child this type of programing they grow up believing in themselves and fight for the greater good despite character flaws.
I was in 6th grade when this cartoon and Batman the Animated series came out! Other notable shows around that time- Tiny Toons, the original Nick Toons (Doug, Rugrats, Ren and Stimpy), Dinosaurs. If you couldn’t find something to watch after school then you simply weren’t part of this world! Loved growing up in the 90’s 😍
The Story Goes that Ford was concerned that Wolverine may not have been able to pull the trigger and to Wolverine was older than Gambit and the concern was if the two had a confrontation during the assassination attempt Gambit would kill Wolverine and then do the assassination.
2099... seemed like it was far away when this was aired originally. Now its actually quite close and while maybe not all of us, some of us might actually be alive to see 2099.
Seeing those headstones when I was in the 3rd grade messed with my mind so good. the concept of nimrod too. of course I saw this on Saturday morning before being exposed to the terminator movies and it affected me so much.
When you see the tombstones, you can hear the pain and anger in Logan’s tone. He loved the X-Men; they were his family. Days of Future Past should’ve been this.
Bishop had a sweet mullet back in the day, much better than his shaved look! And what the fudge is going on with that time tunnel, did an eight-year-old drew that?!
5 year old comment, what a time calsule. That's how they always presented time travel back in the 90s but I do agree it looks pretty comical now a days. So out of place
in this TV version Bishop was a bounty hunter for the Sentinels, he only hunted mutant rebels for the Sentinels and was never educated about his mutant heritage.
The Sentinels, while not Onipotent like in the movies, here were still scary af man! I remember having dread as a kid Wolverine was gonna die, which we found later he did when it was just adamantium bones in Forge's tank. Think Forge was tryna revive him though.
Could be or it could have been that Wolverine's adamantium skeleton was removed and Forge had it. It depends on how the storyline was altered after Bishop stopped the assassination. A lot was different at the end of this story. It was implied Wolverine was dead but there was always the possibility that something else happened to him. Like a Magneto or Polaris gone bad ripped the adamantium layer off of Wolverine's skeleton and as a result, Wolverine's feral rage was getting worse and Forge was trying to find a way to see if it could be put back in (virtually impossible, but Forge would try, maybe an exact form of teleporting the adamantium layer right back onto his bones). A million things could have happened but the general theory was that Wolverine probably died. ... If that was, indeed, Wolverine's skeleton. Or the skeleton of Albert, a robotic copy of Wolverine sent to destroy him. I recall the skeleton not looking exactly like a skeleton and a little bit robotic.
Wolverine's power set is great against small opponents, but against things like sentinels, he's always struggled. Foot-long claws against something thirty-foot tall that can usually self-repair (depending on model) usually doesn't work well for him.
I think they ok. He had trouble with guys like Omega Red and Sabretooth and they always comment that Wolverine is not as tough as he once was. In the Omega Red episode that takes place in the 50’s or so, they show Wolverine and (Maverick I think?) kicking Omega Red’s ass. The 90’s Wolverine is past his prime.
2099 is neither 50 years in the future from the early-mid 1990s when this aired nor even from the current year of 2018. oh god it's been almost 25 years since this show ended, fuck I'm old
Question: who are the two other mutants Bishop captures? I went to the wiki for the animated marvel universe but it didn't say their names, then I went to the marvel database, same thing.
It’s interesting notice that Bishops only recognized Wolverine when Wolverine said “rookie “ in the past . But Bishops did not recognized looking at him . From Brasil 🇧🇷 🇧🇷
