At this moment, the Marvel Cinematic Universe includes two phases, 12 films – spanning from 2008’s Iron Man to 2015’s Ant-Man – and four television series, which can further be broken down to the two TV shows on ABC, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter, and the two on Netflix: Daredevil and Jessica Jones. In terms of its film slate, Marvel Studios has movies planned through 2019 (and dates scheduled through 2020), with Captain America: Civil War officially kicking off Phase 3. Meanwhile, ABC also has a handful of new shows in development that would join the MCU.
Marvel’s merry mutants are back in all-new, all-different (not really) animated adventures on Disney Plus. A direct continuation of X-Men: The Animated Series, which ran from 1992 to 1997, X-Men ‘97 features a similar art style and most of the same voice actors from the original. The new series borrows heavily from dozens of X-Men comic books, with some original flourishes sprinkled on top and many events chronologically rearranged. In some ways, the series works as a quick and convenient way to enjoy multiple comic-book arcs in 30 minutes. In others, it feels like a nostalgia play that lacks depth and nuance.
To dissect and discuss the first season of X-Men ‘97, RPadTV host Raymond Padilla enlisted the help of Turtle Beach’s MacLean Marshall and PaulSemel.com’s Paul Semel. This episode will mainly be Mac and Raymond talking about what they liked and disliked about the show, with Paul commenting as the curmudgeon that disliked the first episode so much that he couldn’t stand to watch another.
Raymond and Mac will discuss the plot points, changes, performances, problems, and CliffsNotes-ification of the comics in X-Men ‘97. Paul will chime in and (hopefully) explain how he could make it through the wretched Green Lantern movie, but couldn’t watch a sometimes entertaining X-Men cartoon.
The Big Cigar Review: This show is an entertaining and intriguing watch that is thrilling in the right doses.
Baahubali: Crown of Blood Review: This animated series has nothing to offer and makes you question why it was made at all!
Exactly
That's why we need a Punisher series with even more gore and over the top brutal killings. Like in Daredevil when he shotgunned that guys face
Then Blade and Moonknight
It's funny because I hear a lot how Marvel is kid friendly yet people ignore their Netflix shows. They've done more R rated stuff then DC.
Daredevil's second season was absolutely amazing but I have never wanted a Punisher series more now. Berenthal nailed the Frank Castle character! I can't believe they are focusing on Iron Fist before Frank Castle...that's just wrong.
At least someone in Hollywood finally got a Frank Miller character right with Elektra.
One of the Best intro credits for any TV series.
Am just getting into this.. so many good Superhero shows to watch these days.
