I have an update exactly. So yeah, description everything you know? Tairfield.
What do you think about this episode? Nonsmoor thoughts if someone's not seen
it, we will take a little break intermission pause and let people catch up.
But I think most people have probably seen it. What did you think
of this? Some big reveals going on here this week. Yeah, I
was not sure what we're going to get into after the conclusion of episode two
last week. I was like, I'm not familiar with the storyline and you
were alluding to some things last week, Travis. I'm based on the comics
of what could be coming in, like what storyline they're going to be tackling.
It's something that I'm very, very unfamiliar with, so getting into where
we're at now, it was a fantastic episode. There are some stuff that
I was just visually not expecting and it blew my mind. I was I
was like, oh this is this is like cringing in a good way.
And then there was some comedic moments that I really like too. But yeah,
there's some there's some crazy shit for only being episode three, and the
amount of stirring that's gone on in this pot it blows my mind. So
I'm I'm very happy with this episode and just where we're at with our characters.
I think it's fantastic. It really really is fantastic. They dropped so
many cool little things too as well that just really add a lot more to
our character's development, and we're like, especially like with Logan after last week's
episode, there was a brief little scene with him that I thought was really
really crazy and overall just trying to figure out how far Oh that's kind of
a spoiler just to kind of backtron from this episode in the Yeah, in
the timeline and see where things transitioned is just something I like looking at that
kind of stuff, and I think it's gonna be a lot of fun to
examine that and hopefully we get to explore that in future episodes of the season.
But overall, I'm ectatic. I'm over the moon. This episode rose
above last week's, so I'm I'm super super happy with where we're going.
Dylm. Were you over that moon with mister Field? I was over that
moon. Yeah, this this show is so fucking good. I'm just shocked
at how good it is. The amount of stuff that is jammed into whatever
it is, like a twenty five minute long episode, It's so impressive to
me. Yeah, this just answered so many questions involving various storylines, like
this was so scary and like so adult. I don't know, it's just
like it's blowing away my expectations of what I had for this show. So
I'm very impressed. So much fun stuff that I can't wait to break down
here some crazy character stuff and you know, as we've mentioned, like cyclopped
Gene like kind of got the short end of the stick in that original show,
Like Geene got some more like dark Phoenix stuff and whatnot. But for
the most part, like those characters in general have been like done dirty on
on the television screen. I'm sure they're great in the comics, but between
its movies or whatever the old TV show, it seems like those are always
characters that don't quite get the love given to them. And like man already
in just this one episode, like the amount of backstore and character development given
to Gene is just awesome. And now I'm just I love this side of
this character, so uh really really impressed with who we got here, Goblin
Goblin, that's Goblin King actually, and this show is King. I am
blown away. I am well over the moon. I'm at Saturn's rings by
now with the when it comes to this show, I think that just watching
this it like brings down the original show of just like comparing like the quality
of the stories of the characters. The animation is like, I have such
a sucker for animation, and this show is so top tire. It is
like no spoilers, we get action in the in this episode, and like
I'm just frothing at the mouth. I'm like, I'm not even juice.
I'm full on frothing, full on foam out of the the cracks of my
mouth. And yeah, I I look like Norman. I'm looking like Norman
Goblin tired. Well, last night I was trying splashed a Kirkland watching X
ninety seven. How come we don't need to add that drop because a low
to drop? How come we've never had that drop? I'm so sid to
the drive. No, I am so impressed with the show on what it's
doing, and just like even even certain threats from like the old show like
they just they feel elevated, uh now in this newer version of the show.
And yeah, I'm like, I'm just so impressed that they're able to
really really deliver that I want to get as many seasons, if not more,
of what we got for that original show, because we don't be greedy
now. But like we're three episodes in and I'm like, fuck, I
just can't wait already for what's to come this season, let alone next season.
So yeah, I won't spoil my thumbs but they're certainly erect. That
could be down right, could be down, could be wrecked, could be
the the Ama Stone hit me with the am or the Mma Frost and never
stop Stone. I'm like trying to think of a poor thing's scene. There
has to be someone out there, send me a picture of Amma Stone and
the thumbs down has to be out there. But uh, yeah, no,
this is great. This is one I was waiting for for a bit
because, as I said, when I saw that Baby X Men fans,
okay, someone was up. And again, what I'm just happy about is
just how quick we're getting this stuff. There's not like a big lull,
there's not there is a build up, but like in a way, there
is some stuff at the beginning, like we move very fast in the first
even two minutes of just beasts expedition dumps, and then the episode's on its
way. So if anything I would maybe make I would love it if they
were like even five minutes longer, just for a little breathing. But it's
okay because the rest of stuff is so good. I appreciate how like horny
this episode is. Like there's a lot of just imagery, whether it's outfits,
whether it's eluded things to what characters might be doing. I was not
expecting this at all, Like I was expect maybe what we send for like,
oh yeah, Gamut's not gonna act that way, and he's not,
but kind of the story is dictating that, Like it wouldn't it wouldn't make
sense for him be acting that way currently right now. And then they're doing
stuff that's way more risky than the other series, and I think there'd be
the odd kind of illusion to something it'd be mostly Gambit, who would be,
you know, making his sexual flirtations, but just even some scantily clad
individuals. I'm just very surprised the show's going to certain routes, and I'm
gonna enjoy it because I don't think we're gonna get these in the movies.
And now I'm starting to embrace myself for how good this show is. Now
I just see the narrative. In three years, we're like, eh,
snow X Men ninety seven, this live action, Like, I really hope
again they see this and go, let's get a little more risky, but
no great character stuff, fun reveals, hitting on very classic storylines, and
there's more to come, very some good imagery. I'm trying to think,
and you're just they constantly, I think, do a good job of getting
into a you know, just in these episodes, getting into a plot moving
forward, and then the end episode leaving a night this little hook. You
know, you're like, okay, it's a why should we tub it last
week? This is the time where not that i'd want it, I guess
for the review cast, but I would take a binge if there was a
higher Disney Plus here right now, had a binge. I want all these
episodes to see how they do them, because even myself like this storyline.
It's a very classic storyline, but they're always doing things a little bit differently.
Or you don't know what they're gonna do, right, So it's that
fun anticipation. But uh yeah, no, I think they another one.
They just nailed to the moon and back. You know that that ball can't
even be seen sat or whatever hit the sun wherever, how far you can
go, they went there. So uh yeah, we're gonna take our first
break and then we'll be back with spoilers. We'll be writ back. All
right, let's break it down. We're just gonna jump into the big thing
right away. The baby. Last week, you know, Jean Gray and
Cyclops had a baby or did they because you know, someone knocked the door
said they're Jeene Gray and this is what I was talking about. Literally thirty
seconds of the episode pieces like I've run the DNA, You're not a real
person, you're a clone, and this is the real Gene. And they
felt like it was like wow, Like again, I'm happy they use all
thirty three minutes, but it was moving very very fast, which again I
do appreciate because we get into it. But yeah, they do the big
reveal that the person that Gene is current, or the person Scott is with
and had the baby with, is not Gene. It is a clone.
They have not revealed how long the clone is around for, et cetera.
They just know this is a clone of gen Gray that was created by good
old mister Sinister, and that's who Scott impregnated. And the woman that showed
up on the doorstep is the original Gene Gray. They share the same thoughts.
They're both murking on a few things, like when they are taken and
certain memories, so they're pretty much almost the same person to an extent.
Maybe Madelon Pryor, which is her name, is a bit more on the
darker side. But yeah, that was the big reveal that this baby and
also the baby it's such as wow to say, got sick because Sinistor is
trying to enhance this baby and make it indestructible. They stopped this process,
making Nathan getting some techno virus or whatever they call it, some sort of
organism that's messing with his body. So Bishop takes them into the future.
So lots went on here. Mister phil What did you feel about the just
initial reveal that this wasn't our Gene Gray. Oh? Also, we only
spent as of right now, yes, two episodes with her. But like
the show said, we don't know how far this goes back, so and
I don't know if the show will over answer that they might. I almost
wish they might not just leave it hanging, because I think that's more fun
for viewers. I think the ending had like perfect ambiguity to it, where
they're like, I don't know which one of us married Scott, I don't
know which one of us was the dark Phoenix. It's a you know,
fun callback to the original show. But I also think that's just a perfect
way to end it as well, and still leaving the door open for more.
M Yeah, I gosh, seeing the how things kind of started off
here and just the twist of like, okay, this this gene is the
fake gene, this is the real gene. I was not I was just
not expecting mister Sinister for to be behind this kind of like multiple gene kind
of thing here. I wasn't sure what was gonna be going on. I
wasn't sure if it was time travel because we have Bishop in here and there's
time trable stuff that's involved too, So I was just I was not sure
where we're going. But everything that was just behind the origin story with this
gene dough I was really really enjoying. I'm trying to see if I have
some notes here on it. Yeah. The one thing I thought was kind
of peculiar is because uh, fake Jean was scanning the mind of real Gene
and I was surprised, like, how did they not? How did she
not identify those mister sinister, because she's scanning, you get that quick flash
she screams at mister Sinister's face like giggling or whatever. When so like a
butt of you guys over this stuned and nudging. But I really felt for
Scott. It's just crazy because like you, technically they are the same person,
but they're not. They're different people. And yeah, he's just he's
married, he's had this kid, he slept with this woman. And take
this news, Taylor, m hmm, how would Manison take this news if
I was a clone? No, she's a clone, same situation, you're
a Scott. That threw me off because like, what have my brother like?
You said, No, you are cyclops character you married this Madison,
but you never know where there is you're your brother. No. I meant
like, yeah, and you've had a child with you don't know who you
know? That would that would be crazy. I mean, oh, I
don't know. Do you think Gene and Scott the new like the real Gene.
Do you think they now just pick up and they're a oka moving forward?
Can't? You absolutely can't. And I mean if this was a week
a week, maybe even I would go back like six months even six months,
sure, but I think that's the limit once you get to that year
mark and beyond No that if you weren't there all throughout that point and backwards,
then that's just like eventually it just it out. We follow up questions.
Eventually, it just for me, it kind of outweighs the ladder.
And I say that because when I'm meaning that you have, I'm assuming most
of the adult relationship and time that they spend together is with the fake Gene.
And then there's still lots of time that they spent together as kids,
and they spent together like the real Gene and and Scott summers. But I
just feel like the being as adults and the development and the the relationship growth
that they've gone through in certain battles having a kid together, there's certain things
that has really grown their relationship. And so he's formed this relationship with this
clone of Gene. Now, this clone of Gene could reacting totally different her
wanting to leave the mansion. That could be just because what the clone is
deciding for herself. Because you have two clones together, or not two clones,
but we have you have two people the same person, But it doesn't
mean they're always gonna be thinking the same and doing the same things. Yes,
they have the same memories and the same kind of origin to a slight
degree. But I feel like this clone wanting to leave for your own path
that we saw in episode two, I think that's totally justified as being what
she wants in her decision, whereas this other gene Gray wants to always stay
at the X MATCHI And so Scott has built this relationship with that new gene.
So this other Gene that came back, no logan can just swoop right
on in that sets stop for grabs. So yog gene you're talking about?
Yeah? Yeah. My follow up for you was, what do you think
is worse, Taylor, someone being with someone for five years or someone being
with someone only for nine months but producing a child with said person. So
what's hard to come back from? Oh, it's still the clone scenario.
Rights, So either you're with the clone for only nine months, because you
were saying like, oh, you're like your parmeters they were swapped right at
like before consumt at your barometer was like, oh, if it's a year
over, you can't come back from that. So I'm saying it's under a
year. It's nine months. But you produced a baby with said mass and
clone, or you spent five years with the mass and clone but no baby.
What's worse, Oh, it obviously having the kid, because there's just
so much more that you have to examine with that situation, especially especially if
the real person comes back and they're like, what did you do? It's
like, well, I did you so I thought, But don't answer that
way. If you're in a scenario you just you like adrenochrome character there no
all right, Kirk, Yeah, might fall up from the press. My
pull up question was going to be like, I guess it's just kind of
my stance on it too, Like for like the whole clone scenario, especially
because the two genes were discussing that they don't even really know when they were,
so like, why would that like affect so much? Like from Scott's
perspective, right, because it's like hell is like both, but like like
the clone of Gene has the memories of Gene, so like it is just
Gene, right, But then you get like a poor thing situation going on
where the clone of Gene could be like a year old and that's kind of
fucking gross. But like if she has all of her memories of her life,
like she's not really your I know, but it's it's still just like
this like two year old mister sister, Like I wouldn't feel good about that,
like, but like it's not like she has like a two year old's
brain, Like it isn't poor things. Probably at man, we should get
like an episode of Sinister in the Defoe role and Jean Gray like walking around
like pissing all over I met him, just with that voice, like,
oh no, I think that's it's still not the original person you you men
fall all in love with it. It's like kind of a trick that is
the person that you fell in love with, because we don't even know when
they're swapped, so like, but then at that point after they're swapped,
they're gonna start making their own decisions and their own choices. That that Gene
wouldn't have made. They that's where they start to break off and a break
away part okay, because the clone says like, you know, we've always
wanted to leave, so she makes it. She insinuates that Gene also wanted
to leave the X mansion. Right. It is the idea too, that
like the whole time they've been I guess telekinetically linked, so that like the
news have to be right. So yeah, because obviously if we don't know
the point in which they've been swapped, like the one who's in the lab
would obviously have not been gaining new memories. But I guess the idea is
that they're just linked that whole time, so any new memory that's formed is
one that she's experiencing through like her you know vision mind that she can kind
of perceive because the giveaway, right she's there, it's like, oh remember
last week when we played pool and she's like, no, I don't think,
okay, yeah this is when we see Yeah. Yeah, it'd be
different if like there's didn't really remember anything, or they both had a really
foggy memory. But if they can remember it clear as day, that's got
to be how it works. But yeah, I mean, like that's a
different physical body though, Kirkling like that there's more to it than just the
mind. You know that you could debate like do people have souls and if
so, that'd be a different soul that you're with at these different times too.
But it's definitely a different physical body. But like it's the same.
It's the same like cells, right, Like it's it's just duplicated, so
it is the exact same because change on the daily. Don't they make that
same case for like a twin. Then if you're saying like it's like a
similar no, no, no, because the twin is a clone of the
other person, Like they start with the same cells. As time goes on,
they so yeah, then it goes back to what you guys are saying
for like the point of the clones, when they realized that they were clones,
that's where everything changed. So now they are like their own paths,
but like before that point, like it is just the exact same being.
I guess I get. Yeah. I guess it depends on how good you
think Sinister is that his UHS is cloning skills, right, I guess not
very good since Beasts was able to kind of carbon date it right, like
he was a bit of a trail there, right, Okay, good enough
though unless someone did experiment. Don't want to figure it out, though,
she would have just kept living her life. And I think Gene for a
solid few hours still a gene. Doe still thought for a solid few hours
she was a clone Gene thought she was. No, No, this is
a lie. She has to be the fake one, you know. Like
the hardest thing for me was just that like they like they do just remember
certain like the original Gene knows about the Phoenix force and the clone Gene knows
about the Phoenix Force, and they don't know which one experience that, And
like I just think it's it's hard for like to differentiate like the two characters
at any point before the show. Right, It's like it's like scroll Roadie,
Like it's it's that sort of thing, but without it like actually being
like like written because like back in that, back in the original show,
like they never had this idea of like eventually making these two genes. So
that was just always the one gene. But now in hindsight, that could
have been a Cloe Gene or I guess it would have been whenever Sinister captured
them. Right, of course, this is coming from the guy who kills
his girlfriend and clones her. You know, I knew would have this defense
and stuff like I don't think you're wrong. Yeah, I don't think you're
wrong, but I still think it would cause some drama in the household,
even for Okay, I thought you were trying to say, like, oh,
it's all good, let's just call it even like three way two let's
yeah, Like, I think there's some especially that like I thought this was
I thought this was done. I had reserved to like, hey, we're
moving on a different path. But I am I wrong. I think they
fully just inserted Wolverine back into this equation with that little see her and Jean
they did. Like I have a counter argument, like, are Wolverine and
morph not? Like getting it on that shower scene was really suspicious to me.
We talked about last week, right, Yeah, I think they might
be hooking up. Yeah, Wolverine obviously still has feelings for for Gene,
but that doesn't mean he is a complex person. We all are. You
know, he could have feelings in two separate ways. But this is like
the Scott thing where you know, he's with Morph, who's maybe turning or
there maybe turning into Gene, but now Wolvering, you get the real Gene.
But I think maybe they're friends with benefits in my head, Kenneth,
But I was not expect That's what's strange too, because we told how the
clones would react. That's why I feel like the Clone has maybe been with
us for a while, because I don't think that Clone was into Wolverine anymore.
But when she reads Wolverine's mind and she goes, I didn't know you
felt that way, and he says, what is the quote? It's even
deeper than that. I got the full on quote here. Let's see I
mean that much to you, And then Wolverine goes more and then they have
a long look and then there's an interruption. So what if he actually just
said morphed morph. Yeah he got cut off, but I was not expecting
that. So I literally feel and Wolverine's done this before. He's been scummy
a few times where like oh gee means like you know, like in a
down trodden play. So I think meat is back on the menu, and
we're getting the we're getting three way back, and I'm not mad at it
because I always love that dynamic, and it is a kind of new dynamic
because maybe this Gene would have felt different. Do I think current Scott still
end up together. Yes, but uh yeah, I was not expecting us,
That's what I mean in general, I was not expecting, well,
we're going to get play like that again. I thought for sure that was
done, And now I don't know. Man, it's gonna be an awkward
matching situation between that triangle and gamut rogue magneto. Fuck. Man, that's
more and more to the quad. Yeah, especially with uh the baby being
gone now too, and like not knowing when or how long that baby will
be gone. There isn't necessarily that thing that would bind Gene and Scott together.
If they're just not vibing after all this and then there, it just
messes with their mind and they can't look at each other the same way.
Yeah, like that, it seems like the perfect time that seem to to
pick back up. So I get you're probably right there. I just I
kind of want to go down this morph path of Wolverine because that's so weird
and interesting to me that it definitely is more of like friends with benefits as
you mentioned, like that seems like more the energy we can still I guess
get that if there's some flirting going on with Gene, but I don't know
that's that's a very compelling. It's not even a triangle anymore. It's like
a fucking rhombus. At this point, it's spring break at the X Mansion.
Everybody's getting it on. He just hates his life. He's like,
literally, because Storm's gone, you got sun Spawn, Jubilee, watching scary
movies to get like everybody is pineap for someone or has someone except for beasts,
you know, so he maybe maybe he'll be Morse rebound guy. You
know, maybe there's something there. I don't know, but yeah, I'm
just like, I'm gonna get percentage because it never happened in the original series.
If I recall, are we gonna get a Wolverine Jean Gray kiss in
this show? We ain't get it the season, Let's do it. I'll
say yes. I'll say yes too. I'm fifty five for five where I
am if on Witch Camp, Yes, it's gonna happen. But I'm just
wondering if she canna realize it, or is Wolvering going be finally a good
guy and be like no, like you should be with scat and stuff.
Because the other thing is we got a three parter finale, so like,
oh, and that's sinister Base, So a lot of stuff can happen in
that go around. I don't know if that means Prior comes back. I
don't know, but I'm I'm Jones and I'm so excited. I'm ready for
it. So mm hmm. Yeah, well here's another question. So,
and this is kind of jumping to the end, but we're kind of jumping
everywhere already. I Bishop takes the baby to the future to fix the baby.
He says that I have someone who can help find the problem here.
I thought that would be Forge, but then Forge is in the present day
meeting up with Storm, and now there could be two. It's a time
travel thing, Like what do you think? What do you guys think is
going on there? Who's Bishop talking about? Imagine he shows up and Forge
just gone and this Summer's baby dies, and he's like, oh my god,
that's actually really interesting. I like that a lot. Forge Unknowingly,
he's like, it seems like Bishop's just part of the X Men now in
whatever twenty nineteen ninety seven. Yeah, I wonder how I couldn't find that
to the name of the show, but yeah, that would be a really
interesting idea. And then we kind of get this subplot of Bishop in the
future with this baby trying to figure things out. Because as we were talking,
well we were talking about in the last episode, that one and two
episode combined, it's like, yeah, what is the what is Bishop is
the main member of the show? We weren't too sure and it seems like,
oh, okay, well, if he's just peeking off in the future,
maybe he's not part of This would be a fun narrative too, I
think. And I think with the structure of this show, where it seems
like we're not gonna necessarily have just like standalone episodes, we could have a
little mini arcs throughout this I could see that throughout the next few episodes,
like maybe getting a scene or to hear there of Bishop's happenings. I have
to go through the episode titles to see, like, ooh, this seems
like the Bishop episode in the future. And I don't necessarily just want an
episode if him and not the rest of the X Men. But I don't
know, maybe there's a bunch of other fun characters in the future that we
could hang out with too. Couldn't it be possible though that like where he's
going in the future, like Forge is there, right, Like like this
could just be different relative, right, Yeah, yeah, he was explaining
that. Yeah, So yeah, because I was with you, I was
really just surprised, I think by that Forge revealed by the end, because
I was one hundred percent convinced that he was going to see Forge. I'm
like, all right, we're gonna get Forge in the show, and then
uh, okay, but sorry to cut you in on in there, because
like, as we talked about, like Bishop, if we're talking about try
and travel in ninety seven, Bishop is probably like a little kid, right
in terms of the time travel stuff, Forge would then be as well.
I'm assuming Forge is a character that was, you know, an adult canonically
in that future time and discovered all this tech and started time traveling after We
don't think we've ever actually seen Forged time travel, right, even in the
old show, he's always just back there at the base. So to me,
this seems like it is that that Forge, because it seems like present
day Forge would be like a ten year old or something, right. I
think it's just tough because like I guarantee you in days of future past and
that time they gave us probably a year, right, I'm just not remembering
what the year was, so we could probably interhead do the math, like
who knows, maybe Bishop's just still like an embryo right now or something,
but that is I mean, Forge was looking like maybe like early twenties potentially
here, but I don't know if that would be enough, like team,
like the jump seems higher now, but maybe you're right, maybe we do
need to crunch the numbers on it. I think there's a chance that the
storm Forge guy is just that day because I do think they purposely make Forge
look a little bit older than Bishop, and if we're judging a nineties animation,
them making someone look forty might think that and they're thinking, might be
like, oh, this guy looks like he's sixty. Like I'm just saying,
like what they're thinking, maybe right back then. So I bet this
is present day Forge, and he's gonna go back to the Forge that's always
at the base camp, send there looking for answers, giving them the information,
or it'll just be some other character. Hell could even be a sister,
right that has some sort of cure that could help out with this sort
of thing. I do think this will all. I don't know if the
specifics will be answered, but I think it'll all be answered this season.
Yeah, I'd agree with that, and my theory was right. Then I
was disappointed. It's not a big con so I won't give it major points.
But I knew Bishop because this happened to the comics where the baby gets
sick and Bishop has to take it back, And I'm like, man,
are they gonna give a Bishop a reason on the team now? He was
literally just hanging out there to be a plot device to get the baby back.
So what if? What if Bishop goes to the future with the baby
and then shit forges in't here, I gotta go back to present day.
I'll leave the baby with Uh who who else is in the future? I
guess we don't really know, right, is Shard in the future? Still
didn't she die or something? No? I think she died. I think
she died in one reality, but then they saved some stuff. And remember
he got that vision this episode of like you're leaving, You're not in your
own time anymore? And stuff. Yeah, but that was just the mister
Sinister like magic. But I think she's still kicking. I think she's still
alive. Or maybe I thought she died for some reason. I don't know,
But either way, there's got be someone there that he could, you
know, leave to babysit. Yeah, this kid, and he comes back
to present day. Potentially that could make sense too, because I agree with
you, I'd be a bit bummed if we if this was like the last
ish of Bishop, if he just disappears for a few episodes, because once
again in this hell sequence in this episode, I love his powers now,
Like I'm all in on Bishop. I think he's so fun. I love
that sequence where he's just juice all them all that all that crackers and juice
and just like to back out back at these demons. That was great.
You're welcome, you know. They say that to each other, and I
love that shouts out to Halo. Yeah. I I was not expecting what
was going on with or what was going to be going on with the baby.
I'm I'm not too surprised in hindsight that the baby like went to the
future. I think it's a good just a way to put that variable like
out of the X Mansion, you know, so like we like because the
baby just is a major variable, right, like we're talking about before the
show even started off, Like is this gonna just keep Gene like kind of
out of the action or like what's going on there? So I am like
somewhat glad that it's kind of just away for now. I don't know anything
about the storyline of what's going on here. I haven't googled Nathan or anything
like this, but just like, and I could be completely wrong with this,
just my assumption, but like part of me, when he goes to
the future, I'm like, man, something's gonna happen, and then he's
gonna be like the next time we see him, he's not gonna be a
baby anymore. There's gonna be like an older, old, older Nathan or
something like that. And that would be a really interesting plot point if if
that is to what's going to occur. But yeah, I'm kind of sad
to see Bishop disappear. Hopefully he's not gone for long, like you were
saying, Dylan, like when he was just juiced up, I was,
I was like, man, Bishop is on such another caliber of a character.
Then I definitely gave him credit for because he had the cool harmonica.
You know, he had the badass effect with the cool gun. But like
that was really it for him. I guess a little bad. Now we
didn't have an xcellent Legends game. I tried. But Bishop man his nineties
kids, he's a fucking cool character. I want the hair back. But
like, yeah, you want to be juiced. Think about all the power
up moves you can do with Bishop. You know, I believe it.
Now after this, we'll redo that episode, will completely cancel that. So
year for Day's future past timeline is twenty and fifty five, So I don't
think that's Forge or he is like an eighty year old man. If he's
like in his twenties here or something, that's definitely future Forge coming back.
Then yeah, now why he's going back, I don't know. I have
this baby. Can you fix it? Storm Woway, I have no powers?
Well it could be well, he I guess Storm, he may what
do you bump into a storm in the future, because maybe that's if if
storms their powers here, then retroactively changes the future, so fors in the
future could see like, oh, this storm is the powers. So I'm
gonna go back to the Foster powers. There's some weather disaster in the future
and he has to come back to get Storm to help save the only we
had Storm's powers. Yeah, do you have any thoughts on Bishop baby going
away before we? Uh? I guess it's it's fitting to kick the baby
out for the time being while we focus on our other characters for and I
guess it alleviates Bishop, but I was more more excited to kind of have
him as being part of the crew and seeing what he can get up to.
And yeah, he's just popping off with his super juice. It was
crazy to see via the idea though of this the baby now, So was
mister Sinister just waiting for this moment? Did he let Jean go and then
chose this as the opportune moment. Why didn't he just act like you didn't
need the real gene to show up? Because the real gene showing up is
what really kind of like started to stir the pot and making that's a mistake.
They didn't show us that. But I don't think Jean Grey getting out
was a sinister plan. Okay, because I guess we're still on like we're
on like day two of the baby being born, right like, yeah,
which I have to say that baby is very fucking aware for being born.
That is like a six month old child. So two top tier munes,
it's gonna come. Some thing is more hair than I have, not a
regular, regular organic baby right there. No, it's literally the sinister.
It's in the hands genes in which I did think mister Sinister threw into the
fucking cauldron when he closed the lid down on top of I was shocked.
It's like a bubbling, bubbling brew about, like like that's when you're adding
in your carrots to your stew. And he just tosses in the fucking baby,
puts the puts the lid onto and then of course it's like a fucking
back to tank or whatever. And then man, when Cyclops is there and
like I know he's got better control of his lasers than he ever has,
but shooting a laser at that fucking tank with the baby and it was like
a humongous risk and not one we're taking my situation. Yeah, yeah,
that was bold play for sure. I did really enjoy that scene though.
Of when they're explained, I like, they don't really ask Scott. They
just tell him like, this is what we're gonna do and have to do.
And I love that We've we've had some I think critiques about handling his
father relationship and it being very light, but still him referring back to him
being abandoned and he's not gonna do that, and I love that he doesn't
stop them, but he does like I'm not gonna be a part of this,
and he walks out cause it's like so layered where there's there is like
a bit of cowardice to it, of like he's not gonna say goodbye to
his child, but he's doing that because he doesn't actively want to say goodbye
to the child and feel like he's giving up on it. It's like it's
a very layered moment when he walks out, and again the show's doing wonders
for Scott Summers. So I love that moment and I love that again,
we don't know what's gonna happen, but he him and Jeans seem very unsure.
They just get back in that bedroom and he's looking at a like that's
what we're talking about before though, right where sure they can have the same
memories, but the lady that gave birth to his son is never gonna be
the one that's with us now, right, So when he's looking at that
photo of him, Madeline and the baby, it's like, no matter what
happens, you can't change that. You can do it again, but it's
not gonna be the same. He can't replace the child or those moments you
have with her. Plus, he's always gonna think now, especially because relationship
is screwed up, what if he thinks that he loved madelin pryor more right,
if they you know, she laughed my jokes, or if this Jean
Great does kiss well rapped, well, that's little so the could fuck with
someone like this with my penis size. I never said that. She never
compared me to Logan, but like that is a thing, right if she
If Jane kisses Logan in his mind, he might be like, man that
madelon prior she never did anything like that to me. So I love that
he just looks like he's going through the ship at the end of this episode,
and I just love and I cannot wait to see I feel like this
when the worst we've ever seen Scott Summers is when the Phoenix happened and Gene
was dead and he was going to bars with Dazzler. I'm very curious to
see what happens to Scott now because I feel like this is even lower than
that, because like the sure Jean's around, but it's awkward. He lost
a child. He's not gonna know his child's alive or notud it could just
got to the future and die. So it's just like what I love,
just the trauma already in episode three, Scott Summer's gone through and uh yeah,
and again. How I know I think we're gonna get follow up is
just the fact that we have a three part finale that Sinister focused, so
I know it's not gonna be like, oh, maybe they'll just have one
episode the resolve at all. It's like, no, I think he might
be mopey for a while, but something good's gonna happen. And like you
guys said, fuck man, Sinator's just the best. I cannot wait to
get that motherfucking live action. I love that too. And Scott shot him.
They did that thing again where his like body broken, all his guts
were bubbling. But uh yeah, Sinister just a maniacal motherfucker. And I
think they did the voice perfectly again too, where I think it's a different
actor, but it sounds like pretty much close enough to what it was,
that robotic voice or whatever. So love Sinister. Yeah, No, I
mean that moment when he taps into the red Gem in her head and starts
controlling her and then that whole sequence after is just amazing. But yeah,
like I love just the horror vibes of it, Like the way they shot
that where they didn't like show him for a bit. He was always just
kind of lurking in the shadows there before you actually see him. The way
he's just in their head is is great stuff. But yeah, man,
like that that sequence when every character is having some different just demented vision of
like their worst nightmare, and it's just like perfectly cuts right to their core
of something that they're insecure about or something they're worried about. The thing that
would just affect the most was so so good. Like Gambit's vision. I
mean, there's all of them, but like, yeah, Gambit's vision of
just seeing like Rogue and Magneto and they're kind of just like like their skin
is like melting into each other and they're like forming into one, And I
what does what does rogue say? What is the line that she says there
the swamp or something like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, something like
that. So good. But yeah, like all that whole sequence is just
freaking amazing. Yeah, the brain treepiness of just what was going on,
and like it felt a lot more mature than I think had like we had
seen anything in the original show. So that's just like I think all these
elements are just on such a higher caliber than what what that original show was.
And you know that the show was great, had a good time going
through it, but like this one is just it's hitting on all calibers and
it seems like they really you know, like yeah they just they just turned
up and turned up. That was a weird way to hit They just turned
it up. They turned it up, and yeah, it's it's really just
delivering. I really liked all the horror elements that were involved with just like
the initial appearance of Sinister. Of course you have b say like only the
only word to describe it would be sinister. Yeah, and then it's like,
oh, I know who's coming. But even just like when he's talking
on the like the baby monitor to gen Or, I guess Madeline like initially
and then just like him appearing in the shadow, she turns around, He's
just not there. Like I loved all that stuff, And Sinister is like
a truly terrifying looking character. So I love that they're like they're just making
them seem even even scarier, and like, you know, we've experienced Sinister
throughout the original show so much, and I really liked this villain for being
someone that just really had no idea who that was before we even started a
retro. I man, like, what a creepy character. And I can't
wait to eventually get them in live action. That's gonna be fantastic. And
they need to keep this vibe, like the scary vibe, like that's what
sets them apart. Like I haven't got a fucking Nightmare and Elmstreet movie since
twenty ten. It's like the closest I've got, like this whole sequence of
like seees, that's what Nightmare in Elmstreet is. It's like it's Freddy as
Sinister and all these kids are having nightmares about things they're scared about, insecured
about, worried about, and Freddy takes avaner that and that's like what he
was doing here, So it was like just perfect. I can't say enough
good things about the sequence. The Yeah, I was not expecting any of
this, the horrific visuals that were popping off here. You had Rogue and
Magneto just fusing together, and are had moving up his body but like into
his skin, like it was just disgusting, and would Jubilee watching the TV
and that like the thing creature human like crawled up and that's just like it
was like like color out of space kind of thing too, Like, oh,
it was just freaky, freaky, freaky. But when mister Sinister first
appeared, there's the briefest of seconds when I wrote down what he said on
the baby monitor, because yeah, at first of the baby mondit, I
thought it was actually beast that was talking, like Jean Gray, are you
there, Like it kind of sounds like beasts, Like, Okay, no,
it's it's but overall it's it was just fantastic. It's not something that
I feel like we have seen. I think you said that Kirkleton in the
previous seasons, this is just unshorted territory for this show, and it was
it was really really good. I liked getting the just the the PTSD that
morphe has from seeing Sinister, and I liked getting to see the O G
More flater on sore back into that version with like the deep like bags under
the eyes, like hasn't slept, just been slaving away for Sinister for months
at this point, and seeing that was was really fun. What was what
was going on with Beasts? What was that vision of that big yellow thing
in the elevator. I can't. I don't remember that much. And because
it didn't even seem like that scary. It was like a little bit gross,
but he wasn't very scared. I guess it's taken or whatever the hell
he said, not enough room for the two of us. Best had nothing.
Beast is scared of nothing. So it'ce I couldn't get to him,
you know, but yeah I did. I couldn't. I didn't find any
symbolism in it. Maybe there's something there, But it's good think Storm wasn't
there, because it would have been like a little box. He would have
put it in a box right away. Knows what to do, you know.
It's like that's the thing with ciniator, and that's where it's like even
so fucked up, Like that's why I'm excited that these reveals have happened because
like they like he made I don't know if he made, but like the
clone is the one that suggests the name for the baby. That name is
like mister Sinnasor's real name, like Nathaniel, that is his name. So
it's like that's so fucked up. Like that's I love that we get the
classic what I love about Sinator. He's like, oh, I got your
genes fine, Like he has a whole speech about jeans and the DNA,
and he's looking at this baby and like I said, he made her name
the baby after himself, Like he's just a fucking he likes. It's like
I said a joke to say sinister. But yeah, man, he's he's
so good. I'm really curious to see where this is gonna go on,
how much more he's gonna pop up. So and I like that he was
just kind of like the puppet master in this episode. Like here he is
like just the man in the shadows, like pulling the strings for the most
part. He has you know, the goblin queen like like kicking ass for
the most part, And I guess that was kind of his role for the
most part, it just seemed like he had a lot more screen time of
him, just like like not hidden in the shadows in the original show.
So I did like this kind of secret, secret version of him. Yeah.
Yeah, we'll see when he gets back. Do we think Madeline's going
to be back at all in the future, Oh yeah, definitely. Do
you think it's a situation where she comes back since there finds her, Scott
seeks her out, where are we gonna go with? I think anything's on
the table. I'll tell you that I'd be more. I'd be down for
more Goblin Queen. I'm a big fan of Goblin Queen always. I was
surprised that they did the full calm gack or they like clothed their like a
little bit more. But I was surprised how much they did that, and
even with Sinister around, just like a like scary villain on her own,
right, you know, like she's just popping off when she goes to hug
Scott and then she kisses me, like, oh, Scott, like care,
He's not gonna forget that kiss, you know, No, he's not.
Anytime he kisses the real Gene, he's gonna be thinking about that.
Yeah, that kiss too. Yeah right, I absolutely love the Goblin Queen
and that like the fight scene in like that monastery church like thing like that,
that was just some of the best action I think I've seen in the
show in general, like just like the close up animation that they had,
all the different effects the Goblin Queen's powers, like just really putting Magneto like
up against the ropes, and like Magneto is just so all time, like
like he's just such a top tier character power wise, and like he was
just yeah, he was getting beaten on on the ground, like his costumes
ripped, his abs are show Yeah, no, I I yeah, I
just really liked the whole fight sequence with the Goblin Queen there. I love
the look. I love the just aesthetic, like the darker almost like gothic
type type theme of like just like the church, we got we got magic
in here more more more morph my gosh, morph morphin into magic. No.
That that was great. Kind of two versions too, right, like
the standard version and then like the kind of Goblin Queen of Fied version,
which is yeah, that was sweet. We got a variant of magic that
was that was sweet. And I love when when Scott sniped her on the
cheek and then just get a blood splat on the ground and then and then
she does like a little lipstick thing with it. It's just so mind bendy.
And I think that was right before actually she lays one on them,
So all of that was that was an eleven at ten for me. Like
that that was just so mind blowing it. I was comparing it while we're
watching it, Shane and I. It's like Vox Macina. That's the the
Amazon Prime animated show, and I highly recommend that show. They have great
animation of all the combat and this this really much. This really felt like
it nice. Yeah, I h what was the other character that more transformed
into is like I forget her name? Like arms right, yeah, Like
it was Mojo's lackey right from those those two episodes. I forget her name.
But that was funny to not a deep cut that I expected to be
seen in this. Who else were going to get? You know, I'm
so interested. I'm still feel uncomfident about my Deadpool pick. If we're getting
some of these people, I still think there's a chance. I like that
every episode it's just gonna be probably a couple of transformations in there. At
least I was gonna say, I hope more never ever turns into Jean Gray
again, because I felt that'd be a very mean joke to Scott. You
know, yeah, I'm sure that should be off the table, so that
he's just really dark humor. Yeah, inappropriate jokes at all the wrong times.
Well, speaking of we got two appearance of Xavier. We got to
see the flashback of when he met Jean, who was holding, of course
a cyclops stall, so very fun foreshadowing, and then we get to see
like a nightmare version of him. His face was what does he say,
He's like demarts for you boys, he didn't realize that was him. Yeah,
nightmare fuel version of Xavier. But again, I like that they're keeping
Xavier in the show but having him so I still think he's gonna appear at
the end of season one, but there's part of me now that is a
little convinced he might not, because with him being in every episode, there's
two ways you go. Either that's the reminder of like he's out there somewhere,
or it's like, well, we don't have him in the show,
but we still want him to be around. So and I kind of would
prefer that. I still think Charles can come back, but if they were
to even save it for next year, that'd be fine, because there's so
much going on. I don't know if Charles needed right now. But yeah,
like in all the uses, and like I said that, it was
great. They get the little flashback of showing Gene using her powers and you
know, the will you fix me? And you know, there's nothing wrong
with the classic Charles beats we know and love, but we haven't got that
in this show. Seeing Gene is like a little girl and that staying like
meeting Xavier the first time, right, So yeah, I really like the
touches of using Zavor, but yeah, more if they should not turn into
Geene gra anymore, I have to keep it on. Yeah yeah, I
that sequence with Well I love. First they're like, Gene, you can't,
you can't go, Like that's too risky, you might get hurt or
something. She's like, well, only my mind is going whatever she says
there and just sends her vision there to break down the Golden Queen and like
that. That whole sequence is so good. The animation of it. I
loved how trippy it was going to these different realms and just like, first
of all, like earlier, I guess in that Hell sequence when Gene like
comes down like an angel, you know in Hell, just angelic light coming
down like very on the nose there. But then like I just love how
Jeane turns herself into like a giant Cortona, like this big blue light and
just kind of has Goblin Queen in her hands and slowly gets in her head
and like swallows her up at one point and she's like swimming around in there
and bursts her out. It's like this whole trippy sequence. It just feels
like an acid trip, but it's like the perfect way to throw her off
balance and get in her head, and and it worked. It changed her
back. It made her realize who she is and how she doesn't have to
be controlled by mister Sinister there. So yeah, that whole sequence was was
so good. And so that was like I think there's like there's just peak
Gene and all of X Men for me that I've seen like in any movie
or any like the old show, like even more than that Dark Phoenix stuff.
I just I just thought the sequel and so it was really really interesting
and did some Yeah, throwing some backstory in there, some origin story stuff,
but then also just really establish who this character is. I think it's
it's so fun, So I definitely hope we see more of this, uh
Madeline, Madeline Pryor, right, I hope we see more for that on
the road for sure. Yeah. Yeah, well, I guess the only
thing I forgot to mention about with Morph is again talking about being an asshole.
They decided to make this joke at Gammut's expense where they say that Rogue
is testing or stamper with the new leader. Oh yeah, and they flipped
through all the training U. So it did seem though, at least though
when they got back to the bench and they were like they were on patrol,
but obviously Gamut's mine is knocking something. Yeah, but yeah, we
don't know because Rogue did go over to Gab and ask what was wrong and
then ship was going haywire. So I'd really like that next week, if
not next week, because I said, yeah, the episode next week is
what was it Mundetto or whatever it's Mundetto and Life Desk. So we're probably
gonna get some storms and I don't know how much we're gonna get the Gamut
stuff because I think I know what this episode is coming up, and I
don't want to spoil, but I think it's gonna be a fun one,
more on, like a more lighthearted, So at least next week or the
week after. I do want a conversation soon. I don't want a whole
season of Rogue just or Gamut kind of like biting his tongue, not saying
anything, even if it's just him, like kind of telling Rogue to piss
off because you've made your choice and it's not me and they heard me.
Oh he misunderstood it. Like I hope that's coming soon, but I'm fine
because there's so much happening this week. You couldn't do it then. So
I like the little shades of Gambit just feeling insecure and just we don't see
that happening a lot with Gamut because he's always so confident. I think the
only time we saw it was me when we met like his family and those
like the camera, but they are the Guild of Thieves, yeah, the
Guild of Thieves. And then his wife that he almost like his fiance.
I think that's the only time we kind of see like saw him shook.
Now we're seeing him a bit more okay, not as confident, so uh
yeah, I'm interesting. But yeah, they are spending a lot of time
together, so I don't know, maybe I'm reading that wrong. Maybe they
are just boning it up. And Gambit is just uh just uh, schedule
is pretty suss. When when they're going through, yeah, it's just Rogue
and Magneto, Ruge and Magnio like back to back to back. I'm just
like, I can't believe the show is doing it. Yeah I was.
I was pretty shocked. And then of course when when Sinisters, I guess
it's Goblin Queen doing like the nightmare scenes like the first like he's already might
have some suspicions, and then he goes on the room sees them like naked
holding each other. Of course they start like blending together, but still just
like that is the last thing you'd want to see in the danger room.
I mean, you can set any kind of setting you want, so it's
just the two of them in there. I mean, oh yeah they could.
I mean, sky's the limit. So do we think that they touched
hands each other right last week? But they didn't kiss, right, They
just touched it boned. They've boned? Is anything happened? But I think
they're definitely hooking up for sure. It is one. It is one person
that you can like actually touch with your skin. Yeah. And he's very
handsome, very attracked. We saw those abs in this episode, like,
oh, he's got good core strength that hair. Yeah. But and he's
the boss, So there's some nepotism in there too, if you can get
something out of it. Gambit with that crawp top though, is looking pretty
good. I'm gonna make the prediction. Who knows. Maybe it's a show
that they won't confirm one way or another, but I'm gonna make a prediction
if they do draw a line of sand. She did not go as far
with Magneto. I think she's gonna show that her heart is still gambut.
That's my prediction. Taylor. Are you on the bone side as well?
Are you with me? Yeah? I think that they're they're just fucking hard
bone saw is ready. I think no, I can't. They're gonna find
a way. I'm telling you it's not gonna happen, but we'll see.
It makes it interesting. Well, I feel like normally, normally I would
be with you. But the way that the show has just kind of gone,
like more in the mature direction that I've expected, has been like,
man, maybe they are actually and then of course they had the skin,
like this episode is the smoking gun. And but I think that that could
also be a red herring, right, that could just legitimately be them training
because they're the guy. Why do they need to train only the two of
them? What else? What else has Gambit doing in the mansion? Travis?
What is he doing sitting around all day? He's doing basketball, He's
cooking, you know, because Gene can't cook right now. But also because
we told the last week Rogue was the most welcoming of mag Needle, So
it could just be that of the team that no one wants to practice with
Magneedle, right, So innocent Travis is the leader. What you think he's
gonna He's not gonna want to get acquainted with his teammates powers if they don't
want him though, Like that's the I think he's the leader. They do
whatever, but he has to let them come to him. He just in
this episode he's ordering them all around. He says, you and you and
you you go the goblin Queen I'm gonna go do this and they'll just do
it. Even Cyclops is like, yeah, whatever you maybe it's your choice
that maybe he she is still trying to bone her, but that's not happened.
I'm saying, but bone happened, So bone. You've got years and
years and years of Gambit just like fore playing and just teasing Grogue and Rogue
just getting super horny, just needs that, like that intimate sexual release.
And finally the man who can touch her comes into play and she's just ready
to eat him alive. But first of all, but second all the way
you laid it though you kept saying Gambit's name, so Magneto is not Gambit,
so sure it can scratch an itch. At this point, she just
she's just yes, he can't right now, he can't. She does,
but Rogue is shown many times that she's not that vein anymore. She's not
gonna go down that route. So I don't think so, I don't.
I think that is a red hairing that room thing. I do not think
they're getting it on. I think they're gonna. I think they're gonna do
a lot of big bills, especially with them touching each other in that vision,
Like, I think they're on purpose trying to make you think that,
and then Rogue is that's gonna be the big jump that And I could be
wrong because Rogue is bared Magneil's children, so we could just have another baby
in the mansion, right, I could be wrong, But that's where I
love the storylines, that there's multiple avenues. I just think that how we
talked about the series where they're really wishy wash of k is Rogue and Gamut
a thing or not and they're both times where they both gonna win off and
flirted with other people. I think that's what this is gonna do, is
establish them or we're gonna get a fucking cliffhanger and we're not gonna get this
this season two. But I'm a no tell me everybody if you're in the
No Bone team, the thing is try if this was the start of this
show and this is a new series, yeah, I think I would see
your point more where that's like, why would they introduce this gambit stuff if
it has no meaning? But I think they have to do it to some
extent. They have to touch on it and play with that expectation because we
had five seasons of this, but now they want to go like a new
route with it. But they're not gonna just like not on it at all
and show that, Like what else is Gambit storyline gonna be this season?
So far? You know, with every other storyline we've talked about, there'sn't
really a lot of room for like a big Gambit story. And like there's
only nine episodes, so I guess he gonna get another you know about on
the Bayou sort of episode with him and his lack he's there, Like,
I think this could be maybe his kind of subplot. For the most part,
I agree with you. But that doesn't mean Rogue still has to sleep
with Magneto. Right. She could just be thinking about it, doesn't mean
she's actually done it. You can do that same storyline and not have them
bone. That's what I'm saying. Open next week's episode from the Danger Room,
what we're gonna say to them, Well, so she thinks about it
but doesn't act on it, so I should just tell Gambit like I haven't
thinking hard about just fucking Magneto. Well, I'm not doing it. It's
a classic triangle, right, but I feel like it she had someone Magneto
and the reason she would probably lean on Magneedo is there is that physical connection.
But I think it's gonna be that she's still Gambit more and that's the
only thing like her and Gambut could touch. What's the love about Gambit from
her perspective? Bad boy? And I know Magneto's a bad boy, but
yeah, you're gonna say it's a bad boy. What about what about magnet
Let me tell you about Asteroid am There's a difference between bad boy and bad
person. And I don't think gam It was ever a bad person. Magnetos
many times this is out that he has the season that's a bad boy.
Magneto is a victim. Now he's a bad boy, and I just feel
like there's a deeper connection. They got five years worth of you know,
I'm telling you that Gambit and Rogue will prevail. There'll be no bone zone
for Magnill. Maybe if he plays his cards right, maybe he can.
Maybe they're gonna do something where Magneto is gonna be in the room and he's
gonna put some force field wrong Gambit, and that's what they're practicing, just
so Gambit can have He's gonna be a condom, yeah, because he's like,
oh, I'm all for your guys. Love just he has to be
there to watch, right or you know what makes more sense. You know
what makes more sense is Morph could do that because Morph can use other people's
powers, So he could just use Magneto's powers and do the for stuff.
Right. Uh. I don't know if they're both cocks though, right,
well, Morphs definitely. I don't think Magneto would not want to cook unless
he like cuts his love for rog He will do it for her. And
there's just many awkward nights in the Manchu where maybe he has to send the
corner or a rogue and Gamut get it on. Four people enter the danger
room, two people get off, five people come out, and then Wolverine
goes in there. He's like, what is this smell? I don't like
it, Bob Morph Morph stays in the room. Is there anything else on
this episode? Because I want to throw it a theory that I saw online,
not mine, but anything else specifically on this episode. It's just,
uh, one last thing I'd like the I guess the throwne area that the
bat the Goblin Queen was in. I'm just such a sucker for like a
big badge just sitting in a throne at the top of a staircase, like
there's not really there's not really a purpose for it. It's just like leading
up to where she is. But fuck, I just love that imagery,
especially when she just like struts down the stairs does a little hair flip before
just fucking popping off on our heroes. I just can't keep doubling down enough
on how badass that sequence was. I loved it. Good stuff good like
sarn Lord, yeah, sort of stuff you know, in their Tower of
bad My only two notes is when they are talking about getting rid of the
baby or s into the future, they had this great shot of Scott looking
down talking about Nathan and he was in the visor reflection, so I really
like that. And then also there's this little moment that obviously they were I
don't know why I said that twice they were talking about Morph and you know,
Morph is talking about how they had this experience like din eluded. They
go back to the old like drape eye and everything. So when they get
to the base, they show more of looking really nervous and if you watch
it back, make need checks on them and like kind of gives them a
head, not a little pat and then they go. So I thought it
was like a really nice moment for Magneto to show that, Okay, the
team has to kind of still curve to him, and he might be a
bit more of a brutal leader, but he's also evolving as well and becoming
a bit more softer because I feel like even when he was leading the Brotherhood,
I munes he was like you okay, Sabertooth, like you ok Like,
like I feel like he is trying to be softer. Now you can
say maybe that's road make him softer, but either way, I like it
was a little touch that Morph needs a little reinsurance' bro. Morph needs a
little more reinsurance in the rest of the team because they went through some like
a year or season worth of fucked up shit with Sinister. So I thought
that was a good Magneto leader moment. And Theniedo is gonna really need to
step up because Storm's gone and Scott's fucked again, you know, like like
he really has to be the backbone of that team now. When we had
I guess it was clone gene like when the other Gene was there. And
then everyone sus of who we thought was the original Gene but the clone Gene.
And she turns to Scott for like just some like backup, some help
or whatever, and like, you know, like fair enough. From his
perspective, he's pretty just shocked at the whole situation, especially a beast is
revealing the science behind it and all these things. But like, I really
like just how that scene was done as well, just from like I guess
it's Madeline's perspective of just this one person that you think you can trust,
like the father of your child in your mind, is just kind of like
turning his back on you. That was really well done. But yeah,
man, just when she when she turns home, and it's just like Storm
would have believed me, and she just walks off. I'm like, man,
poor Cyclops, like he's just always getting compared to Charles, to Storm,
Like he's just he's never compared in like a like a like a higher
position. It's just always seems like someone's like you're not as good as this
person, or this person would have believed me. And yeah, that that
one cut deep for poor Scott for me at least, and at Dylon's name,
I did like Magnio just been like he said, they you Brimstone glone
like here just yelling this sund like not not no democratic value there. But
yeah, it's just a small one. I saw because I was scrolling whatnot.
I'm not on tour most these days, but usually like for the lunch
break a little time check some news, and I saw this tweet tweet and
it was saying that you remember the senator or whoever that lady was. It
was running on the treadmill talking to Gene and Scott. Their theory that was
going around again some likes was that that could be Mystique, and I was
like, oh, you know what, that wouldn't be a terrible scenario because
where he is Mystique and you know, she's always in that sort of stuff,
So it could be nothing. But I just saw that. I want
to mention it because I was like, oh, I'd actually like something like
that because I don't know, it'd be a fun way, because I do
want Mystique to get back in here. We know Nightcrawler is in this show
at some point, so I do think there's still some un left juice to
squeeze out of the rock for Nightcrawler rogue and mystique, because I think we
talked about that last season right where I was like, I don't know where
my mom is in She's just like walking off in the distance, like,
oh, she's just right there. So much like with the Jeane and the
Scott and the baby situation, how we got deeper into that. I think
there's a chance. So I don't know if I fully believe it, but
I thought it was a fun theory to shout out. So I love the
theory. Shout out to the Twitter user who proposed such a thing. I
have no idea anything else or thumbing up. Now, does anyone not have
two thumbs? I've got two, or does anybody get less than two thumbs?
I think we're all too right. There Fore, Yeah, and Julie
sun Spot, they're on the r sunfire whatever is on fire? Sound Spot
Soundspot. Yeah, they're on the couch watch the movies getting close so and
they see him hanging out and yeah, So we'll be back next week for
oh boy, who knows what's gonna happen next, but won't be boring.
Thank you very much for listening, all right,
