blind X-MEN '97 REACTION 1-3 | Cyclops is cool?

1 - To Me, My X-Men
One year after Professor Charles Xavier left Earth with the Shi'ar,[a] the X-Men continue their mission to defend mutants and humans alike and go on to become legally sanctioned by the United Nations (UN). Additionally, Jean Grey has become pregnant while support for mutants has grown. After the X-Men save a young mutant named Roberto da Costa from the Friends of Humanity (FoH), Jean sees that they were outfitted with Sentinel tech and probes Henry Peter Gyrich's mind for the location of the Sentinels' creator, Bolivar Trask. Despite succeeding, she receives a horrifying premonition while doing so. The team later find Trask at a junkyard in the Sahara, where he is rebuilding his Sentinels with the aid of a lobotomized Master Mold. After defeating the Sentinels and apprehending Trask, Cyclops and Jean ponder leaving the team to raise their son away from mutant hatred. The following day, Magneto reveals Xavier's will, in which Xavier gave him control of the Institute and entrusted him with leading the X-Men.
2 - Mutant Liberation Begins
3 - Fire Made Flesh - The X-Men take in the Jean look-alike and Beast determines that she is the real Jean. Mister Sinister contacts the other Jean and reveals her to be a clone. Mister Sinister asserts his control of the clone Jean and she transforms into the Goblin Queen, taking Nathan with her. The Goblin Queen subjects the X-Men to horrific visions before the real Jean confronts her clone telepathically. Morph leads the X-Men to one of Mister Sinister's laboratories where they find him afflicting Nathan with a virus in the belief that it will turn him invulnerable and make him into the ultimate mutant. Jean again telepathically confronts the Goblin Queen, reminding her of all the memories they share, both good and bad. The Goblin Queen snaps out of Mister Sinister's control and turns against him, but Nathan is left gravely infected by the virus. The clone Jean and Cyclops send Nathan to the future with Bishop in the hope of finding a cure there. Then the clone Jean leaves the mansion where she takes on the name Madelyne Pryor. In a bar in Texas, Storm meets Forge, who tells her he can restore her powers.

While’s Scott’s optic blast is capable of cutting, it’s actually a concussive blast, not a laser, that works like a punch. The movies were a little misleading with Scott.

[@solblackguy]

I wish the 90's cartoon and X-Men 97 would've gone into more detail. Cyclops has multiple filters on his visor that have different settings like cutting, piercing, welding, wide arcs and even a setting to reflect off other surfaces. He also has a series of controls in his gloves as well.

[@Turambar88]

FYI, the M on Bishop's face stands for "Mutant".

[@Brooklyn_Bleek]

He's from a future where they branded rounded up mutants. Needless to say, he escaped.

[@ieyke]

Rogue is SUPER strong, SUPER tough, and can fly, because she permanently absorbed Captain Marvel's powers and put Carol into a coma for a while. Now she just has Carol's powers forever.

[@KthulhuXxx]

"Forever" wasn't forever in the comics, by the way.

[@solblackguy]

Technically, Rogue _could_ absorb anyone's powers permanently with extended contact. But most likely it'd be fatal to the person she's absorbing. The only thing that presumably saved Carol from outright dying is her hybrid Kree physiology. The writing used to be all over the place with Rogue having Carol's powers too. Whenever there was a situation where mutant powers would be dampened, like The Savage Land, Rogue could still have access to Carol's powers and not have her mutant powers. It was also discovered that Rogue can control her absorbing powers, but too much abuse in her past created a mental block. There's a multiverse variant of Rogue that actually can control her powers fully and can use other's powers based on proximity without rendering them unconscious, but could also shut off other's powers as well.

[@ieyke]

Gambit can charge anything he touches with kinetic energy. He can also control kinetic energy and make the charged objects explode/explosively release the energy if he wants. He's also a master thief.

[@solblackguy]

The true property of Gambit's powers is to enhance any object with enough kinetic energy to generate a force multiplier like using his staff to shatter walls. The problem is he needs to be familiar with the object he's using to do this. The reason why he uses cards as a primary weapon is because they're easy to carry and it's more efficient to simply overcharge them until they explode.

[@ThePonderer]

Live-Action does Scott Summers SO dirty.

[@jaynecobb8356]

Not only Cyclops. The Live Action Rogue was also wasted.

[@ChamarM]

All of them both timelines except for Wolverine was done dirty

[@jaynecobb8356]

@@ChamarM Well, some of them were done well. For example I liked Stewart as Xavier, Brolin as Cable, Schreiber as Sabretooth, Kitsch as Gambit and the Actor who played Nightcrawler. Though, Jackman as Wolverine was good, but I didn't liked, that he become a leader. Wolverine is more the lonely wolf, than a leader. Because of that, I don't like him as much as I did before the movies. Oh and I liked, that his past and origin was a mystery.

[@AscendedXSaiyan]

​@@jaynecobb8356Wolverine has assumed a leadership role in a few comics though

[@jaynecobb8356]

@@AscendedXSaiyan I know, but that only happened, because of Jackman. Because the movies were successful, they changed things in the comics as well, in hope, that fans who only know the X-Men from the movies, would also buy the comics. Before the X-Men Movies, Wolverine was never a leader.

[@Urizen61]

1) Cyclops eye-beams aren't lasers; they're force beams. They don't burn. Getting hit by them is like getting hit by a really big, really fast truck. 2) In the movies, Rogue only has one power: power-absorption. But, in the comics, Rogue also has super-strength, invulnerability, and flight. She gained these powers while fighting Captain Marvel. Rogue held on to Carol Danvers too long and so she permanently absorbed her powers, but she also has Carol Danvers' consciousness buzzing around in her head. 3) Gambit can charge objects with explosive energy. He can theoretically charge any object, but the bigger it is, the longer it takes to charge, so her prefers to charge small objects like cards. There is some controversy over whether Gambit should be able to charge Wolverine's claws which are made of an indestructible metal called adamantium. 4) Roberto, Sunspot, absorbs solar energy and transforms it into strength. 5) Cyclops parents were abducted by aliens, so they didn't willingly abandon their children. P.S. I'm in a helpful mood tonight.

[@iraford5788]

Actually one correction, Cyclops optic blast can burn depending on the intensity of control he has over them as his beams easily cut a sentinal in half in this episode.

[@Urizen61]

@@iraford5788That does not necessarily mean he's generating heat. Look, I don't know what the rules are in the X-Men '97 universe are because I'm not Beau DeMayo. But, in the comics, Cyclops' optic blasts aren't hot!

[@giosbizarreart9048]

@@Urizen61yes but if something is moving very fast it will generate heat like how tires burn rubbers. cyclops’s optic blasts would still leave whatever he hit with them very hot or depending on the speed, with burn marks. So yes they aren’t heat blasts but just due to physics they would leave whatever they hit with lingering heat due to abrasion and how fast the beam is moving

[@treyformidable]

Roberto has another super power called being incredibly RICH. When he was in the Avengers he defeated the Hydra spinoff group AIM by…buying them out.

[@johnniequinn3215]

@@giosbizarreart9048That would be heat due to friction not due to the beams themselves. Cyclops visor can help him adjust the Intensity and narrowness of the beams for different effects but no intrinsic heat.

[@mageeaaron2624]

30:06 Yeah, Mr. Sinister is a huge X-Men villian. He has an obsession of Jean Grey and Scott Summers' genes. He believes that their child will be the ultimate mutant. He wants their child to be his slave so he could take over the world. He's more evil than Magento

[@murk4552]

Bigger than that, he is trying to defeat Apocalypse to be freed from being his prelate.

32:48 Morph and Bishop are different people. I understand the confusion. Bishop is from the future. The "M" on his face is a brand because the timeline he's from, mutants are branded. Hope this makes sense! 💪

[@sergiomedina7960]

The Goblin Queen name seems pretty lame here but in this storyline in the comics she made a pact with demons to gain power and she basically created hell on earth

[@NathanielWhitehead-vg3lc]

23:35 Technically, Storm's both. She's more like a "demigod", though; she can still be killed like any other mortal. She has an ability called "godhead", where the more people believe in her, the stronger she becomes. As an Omega-level mutant (the strongest class of mutant), her powers have limitless potential. In some comics, her powers grow and evolve to the point that she becomes an entirely elemental being. Storm is a Kenyan princess. She comes from a long, ancient line of powerful sorceress priestesses, who each had white hair and blue eyes, though the magical potential/visual traits often skipped generations. One of them was the Sorceress Supreme in her time. Storm has a ton of magic potential. The blonde girl with the sword (Episode 3 and Anya Taylor Joy's character in the 'New Mutants' film) was trained in black magic by a multiverse version of Storm. Storm was without her powers for about 3 years in the comics. Some of her greatest character development took place during that time. She's still a very capable leader and excellent in hand-to-hand combat (her preferred weapons are knives). Those live-action films nerfed these characters to a horrendously awful degree. They are still nerfed in this show, but not so badly. Thank goodness for this show; people are finally getting a better idea of, at the very least, what their personalities, capabilities and relationship dynamics should actually be like.

[@Pinkielover]

100% safe to jump in... but I guaranteed you're going to wanna watch the rest because the rest is great..😂

[@seneca1932]

Lame name or not, The Goblin Queen is no one to be trifled with. Not only does Madelyn have all of Jean Grey’s abilities, she also, in her and grief, made a deal with two demons to get magickal abilities. She is an elite level sorceress.

[@jlo1195]

So glad they brought this back....it's the 90s all over again...They did Cyclops right with this time! gave him his own superhero landing...but he sure does have abandonment issues...They all shine!..heard they working on Season 3...so more goodies to come! Love ya reactions!

[@AzulApe]

They did him right in the OG series too and Evolution. He has always been cool in the comics. It’s just those weak Singer films where he was done dirty.

[@Smokey1419]

If you know his whole backstory, youd know why he has those issues 😂

[@Shadow_Robotnik]

Scott: “I won't abandon my son!! " Literally walks out of the room doing exactly that.

[@jlo1195]

hahah yeah ...he said he doesn't want to be a part of this and cheese it! HAHAHAH

[@DeashasAlwaysWatching]

Hahaha 😂 I know! I thought he was atleast going to show up right before the baby went to the future lol

[@AzulApe]

You missed the point. He wasn’t going to be apart of sending him to the future. He was against it since he was an orphan himself.

[@Shadow_Robotnik]

​@@AzulApeyeah no, got the point right off the bat. My point is that it's freaking hilarious how they made theirs.

[@Smokey1419]

​@@Shadow_Robotnik so what was he suppose to do? He knows, despite how much it will hurt him, sending him away is his only option for Nathan. On top of learning his baby momma wasnt Jean, you want him to just watch as his son is taken from him, essentially doing what Corsair did to him?

[@mageeaaron2624]

7:28 Yep. In the original animated series and the comics, she was once part of the Brotherhood of Mutants. She encountered Captain Marvel *Carol* and grabbed her. Thus, absorbing her until Carol went into a deep coma. Since Rogue held on to her for too long, Carol's powers remained in her permanently! 🙏🏽💪

[@mageeaaron2624]

10:48 Understandable, Gambit's powers is kinetic energy. Anything he touches, he releases kinetic energy into the object/material and turns it into a grenade like explosion. However, the bigger the object, the longer it takes for the kinetic energy to connect with it. That's why he uses cards. They are small and quick to use. Hope this makes sense 💪

[@saahir18]

Jubilee ignites matter. Potentially, she could ignite things at the atomic level, causing nuclear reactions. Her fear of injuring people holds her back.

[@rictor5]

Cyclops is the only leader that all mutantkind end up following, during the UTOPIA era in the comics he ends up being the leader that all, even Magneto comes in to follow and keeps them alive when the Scarlet Witch depowers most of them. He is soo cool, glad that they are making everyone see it again.

[@krono5el]

yeah pre 2k X-Men were rad af and all over, we even had xmen chef boyardi cans and valentines day cards as kids : ) also magnus in the comics and MvC games has always been a omega lvl beefcake :D

[@sergiomedina7960]

Everyone already explained how Rogue gained Ms Marvels powers but one important thing to add is that she wanted to let go but Mystique ordered her not to let go

[@X-RPBishop]

Gambit can charge anything with explosive-kinetic energy. It is theorized that he could charge the entire Earth, making him an Omega Level mutant.

[@gilb25]

If all you know about cyclops is the live action, then you know nothing about him. He is literally the captain America for mutants. He is the first x-men and the leader of the team. Doing x-men without doing cyclops right is like doing Justice league/Avenger without superman/captain america

[@HackWilson14]

To be fair, she’s the Goblin Queen because in the comics she conjures up demons and goblins to do her bidding.

[@joshuaflask3091]

So it helps if you've watched the original however the original does have a lower budget and everything. The movies did the X-ment dirty particularly Cyclops and Rouge; the only one they did somewhat justice to is Wolverine and Deadpool in Deadpool in Deadpool 1 and Deadpool 2

[@AzulApe]

“They need another leader to unite them” Nah, Scott’s lead the team since he was a teenager. Wolverine needs to grow up and stop playing the angsty teen. It’s embarrassing at his age.

[@bryce253]

Cyclops led the X-Men technically the longest but it is very arguable that Storm led the X-men through more times of extreme peril, even when she didn't have her powers. Remember she won a challenge against Cylops to lead the X-Men even when she didn't have her powers. She's also been member of the Avengers and The Fantastic Four. That character in the FOX X-Men movies is not Storm. That dude they did in the movies isn't Cyclops either. But one thing the FOX X-Men movies nor the animated series has done is show what a formidable leader and hand-to-hand combatant Storm is. I hate that. It takes a lot away from her character.

[@AzulApe]

@@bryce253 Storm has abdicated authority whenever things got hard. So no she didn’t ever lead them through tougher times. You dunno what you’re speaking on. lol

[@wickedfire91]

I'm sure someone has already sounded off about this below, but just to add --- episode three, "Fire Made Flesh", was a brief and kinda loose adaptation of the "Inferno" story (hence why Madelyne yells "They shall know my inferno!" like she's dropping a reference). I thought they did a really, really good job actually lightening that story up and treating all the characters involved, especially Maddie, kinder than the comics did. But in the comics the Inferno itself kicks off because Madelyne is manipulated and tricked into becoming The Goblin Queen during a very vulnerable time by a demon named N'Astirh and his enforcer S'ym. She actually controls hordes of demons and goblins from the hellish dimension of Limbo, so her name makes a *lot* more sense in the comics lol. I was surprised they did go as hard on the horror elements as they did, but I wish that they'd had her manifest more 'demons' like we saw Bishop destroy at one point because I think that it would've looked cooler but also been slightly less confusing for non comic readers why she would've called herself Goblin Queen :)

[@rodrigoferreramenezes5274]

The funny thing is, you don't need to watch the original. Even in the comics, the x-men historys are that crazy.

[@bryce253]

There's so many things wrong with this comment I don't know where to start so I'll just leave it alone.

[@ItzMeWill]

Yea that doctors concern about Jean losing control was valid....I mean we just saw her violently rip the roof off the car on the way to the hospital on accident...I would be afraid of losing my head if I was delivering her baby...lol

[@canadian0099]

Cyclops is the original badass in the comics. Nice to see an interpretation that finally does him some justice. Absolutely my favourite X-Men by a pretty wide margin. His eyes for record aren’t lasers. They’re concussive blasts and when he uses them they are portals to the punch dimension. In other words extreme energy/force behind it. When he ‘cuts’ that sentinel, that’s insane pressure/force cutting right through the machine. Produces no heat. Live action of him is an absolute joke. Look forward to hopefully righting the wrongs of IMO the best X-men to exist. Also, shoutout to my girl Storm getting her bada** sequence in the opening episode. Never got the proper respect either. She a queen after all.

[@shanajeangedeon9060]

Charles trusted Erik because he could *always* sense how much Erik still loved and respected him, so he knew that if he ever died Erik would *never* trample on his dying wish

[@solblackguy]

Also, Magneto is based on former Zionist terrorist, turned Israeli prime minister Menchem Begin. Claremont had always intended for Magneto to have a massive redemption arc in his story.

[@ItachiUchiha-jv3rf]

Rogue was a teenager when she got into a fight with Ms.Marvel and accidentally absorbed a very large portion of her powers and her life force permanently. Ms. Marvel was in a coma for almost 30 years behind that. The crazy part is Ms. Marvel picked the fight. Rogue tried to run, but Ms. Marvel just wouldn't leave well enough alone. She kinda deserved it🤷‍♂️

[@izzyworld8068]

Ms Marvel (Carol) wasn't in a coma for 30 years, she was comatose for a short while but recovered with the help of Xavier but her memories were never fully recovered and what was had no emotional attachment, all the emotions linked to the memories were inside Rogue, so when it came to intimacy felt by Carol in some relationship memories, they tortured Rogue as she could never physically experience them.

[@IcedEarth426]

Cyclops was always cool - he just got done real dirty in the movies.

[@LunaticReason]

Gambit has the power to turn the kinetic potential of an object in explosive energy.

[@Eric_S.]

You get a Deasha and you get a Deasha!! (Oprah yell)!! That was a cute edit! 🥰🥰🥰

[@Bloodyshadow1]

gambit can charge things with energy and that causes them to explode. He keeps the cards on him because they're easy to carry and he's good at throwing them due to his background. I think it's only things that aren't alive, but that can change depending on the comic and the writers idea of what 'alive' entails. That's why he was able to charge wolverine's claws because they're adamantium but the rest of his body didn't glow

[@ieyke]

This is based on the X-Men back when the X-Men were great. They've gone SEVERELY downhill in the last 27 years, since the live-action movies came out and messed up people's perception and expectations of who and what the X-Men are and can be.

[@Blayz001]

And because Marvel lost access to them to Fox for movies, Marvel Comics de-emphasized (and effectively removed) Mutants in a bid to make the MCU movies more successful. Now that they got it back, they have work to do to re-invigorate interest in the name X-Men.

[@LittleGalaxyBoy]

4:39 Love the picture of the original X-Men from the 1960s. Angel, Jean Grey also known as Marvel Girl during this time, Iceman who in these early comics looked more like a snowman, Beast in his non blue form and of course Cyclops. For the films they had to change up in First Class for timeline reasons. Angel was just a teenager to young adult during X-Men: The Last Stand same goes with Bobby/Iceman as well. Scott and Jean were also too young to be appear in First Class Mutants with Beast being the only member who was old enough in the films to be a 1960s X-Men member. 39:21 Fun fact in the comics Madelyne Pryor wasn't originally written as a clone of Jean. Originally she was introduced to give Scott a second chance at love while also writing him out of the X-Men comics, giving him a happy ending. This was after Jean's "death" in the Dark Phoenix storyline, real Jean would later return. For this show I personally believe that Jean was replaced with Madelyne sometime after the shows Dark Phoenix storyline.

[@donnyouttheway4091]

Wolverine is in love with Jean. It’s like how the wolf dude was in twilight. He’s imprinted on her. That’s why morph was teasing him. He wants that life with Jean. And also, they definitely went through a lot in the old show. Morph supposedly died in the first season and was brought back in the second season by Mr.Sinister. Thats why they changed their face into the evil sleep deprived dude. That’s how they looked when Sinister was controlling them. I keep calling morph them and they because the producers wanted them to be non binary since they shape shift. I’m just showin respect

Scott, Jean and Logan are in love triangle for decades now, in the comics. So it was quite expected, but that thing between Magneto, Rogue and Gambit... is something completely knew and we do question it if it is even a real love triangle. However, Rogue and Magneto were a thing in one story in the comics so they are following that one which caught most of us unguarded.

[@happyslapsgiving5421]

If someone in your life, someone you've known forever, turns out to have been an impostor for an undefined amount of recent months / years... would you trust them blindly? 😅 Wouldn't you need to have some important questions answered before trusting that person again? 😂

[@DeashasAlwaysWatching]

It wouldn't be blind trust. I would trust in the relationship we have had for years. It's not like Madelyn/Jean knew she was a clone and was keeping it from them. She wasn't pretending to be someone else and she wasn't faking her actions or feelings. If me and my mom found out I was switched at birth and I wasn't really hers I wouldn't distrust her, she didn't know and it wouldn't change the love and relationship we had. Yeah I would want to know who was my birth mom but that wouldn't make me distrust the mom that took care of me.

Just found your channel! Loved the reaction and am looking forward to watching more from you. Being brand new to your channel, I am curious, how many Disney movies have you seen? I’m always interested when I hear people say things like “this is not something I expected from Disney” I understand where the squeaky clean, completely cute and family friendly perception comes from with Disney, it’s their brand and they make sure to advertise their products in a very specific way. However, there is plenty of “adultness” going on in Disney. Like, super dark, super sexualized, very real mature themes. There is stuff in Disney that disturbed me as a child, but disturbs me even more as an adult, because now I truly understand what they were actually doing in some of their more “cute, fairy tale” moments. Fairy tales in general are usually very dark and grotesque. Disney did slap a coat of cuteness on the classic fairy tales of old, but if you look just below the sunshine and rainbows they advertise, you will definitely be asking, was this really intended for children?

[@Narutoanime16g]

The explain everything it in the original show which is so fun but Rogue is able to fly and has super strength permanently because she held onto Captain Marvel for too long and put her in a coma & Mystique is her adopted mother & the mother of Nightcrawler & Gmabit & Rogue were my fav couple in the other season ugh it’s soo good

jubilee refers to her powers as "fireworks" but her powers are far more than that. she essentially uses her powers in low power mode because at the upper ranges of her powers she can detonate matter at the subatomic level. essentially she has the power of nuclear fusion aka the way that the sun powers itself. so her powers are EXTREMLY powerful but she is afraid of what her powers are capable of so she generally sticks to firing "fireworks" which she can use to stun or blind people. (at least thats what its like in the comics. what they do with her powers here is anyone guess.)

i love that neither the characters nor the audience knows for sure when jean and maddie got switched. it might have happened at some point after the previous show ended in season 5 or it could have happened before the previous series even began. there are theories by fans of the previous show on when the switch took place but in reality we only know that maddie was there for the last 9 months. but how much longer than those 9 months has she been there? days? months? years? no one knows for sure.

As a person who grew up with this show and LOVED it, they took the '90s show and amplified it for the 90s kids who are now adults, and I love this more! This is now TV-PG, so it's technically not for kids anymore. It is lighter than NCIS, but it still has NCIS moments. They took all the good parts from the '90s show, making it topical and even more important for those watching today. I did not change, the X-Men have always been ahead of it's time and brought up important points about equality and those who hate it. Also, the X-Men is a soap opera in a way, so love triangles are normal. Its comic accurate.

The problem with Cyclops in live action, is they chose to focus mostly on Wolverine, that all the other characters got left in the dust.

Yes I 100% agree with this. The movies seemed to star Prof X, Wolverine, and when they needed some action Jean.

Girl, you are in for a wild ride with this series. As a long time X-Men fan, you are not ready for the drama, the emotions and the insanity of this show.

The reaction to the Goblin Queen name lol... One thing the 90's X-Men show did pretty well is that they literally pulled their stories from the comics and adapted them pretty well. Madelyn Pryor being a clone, being married to Scott, and being betrayed and turning into the Goblin Queen is straight up how the comics were. The movie versions of many of the characters were pretty off from the source material. Sometimes the 90's cartoons introduces new ideas, as well. Morph (the shapeshifter) was created to show how serious of a threat they were facing. This version of Gambit and Rogue is much cooler. Many fans are really hoping they turn these versions into movies. Cyclops is much more accurately portrayed here as well. He is the leader. Hope you enjoy the series.

[@Uatu-the-Watcher]

Yes. Fireworks.

While Storm has been worshipped on several occasions as a weather goddess, she actually is a mutant. And the way the queen of Wakanda too.

[@metalfightxiggy]

some one might have commented this already but the M on bishop's face is a mark they gave to mutants in the future to mark if the person who was captures was a mutants or not so if you didn't have a collar the older sentinels know yer a mutant ( the upgraded ones can just scan you )

It's worth to say that Cyclops' power isn't laser, its a concussive blast.
