This is the episode where the show runners very deliberately take an audience that grew up on 90s X-men, who had been having a blast reliving the glory days up to this point, and brutally remind them that the world is a horrible, nasty place in which your life can go from great to hell in a heartbeat. You feel dazed, like you’ve been punched in the head, because that’s exactly what they designed this episode to do.
20:39 - Actually, Rogue and Gambit *don't* have the same accent. Yes, they're both Southern, but Remy has a Cajun accent, which is more prominent in Southern Louisiana, whereas Rogue is from Mississippi. Yes, those states are right next door to each other and yes, their accents may have *some* similarities because of that, but Gambit's vernacular is strictly Cajun.
Disney Marvel was dead, constant crap stories and low effort shows and movies since End Game. Then they called in the big guns, and this single animated series saved Disney Marvel. Phenomenal writing, voice acting, story, just fantastic. I rewatched the whole original series in time for the start of this series and it just gets better and better.
They really need to make and execute both the Xmen series and fantastic 4 only problem is that Disney and Marvel doesnt have the rights for both Fantastic 4 and Xmen because they're owned by other companies forgot which
Honestly now that I think about it, when Professor X told Gambit: "How often must the scoundrel prove himself as a hero before he believes it himself." This is what he meant, Gambit went down as an ultimate superhero by saving the remaining survivors on Genosha and Rogue of course. If that's not the way the cajun should go out then I don't know what is.
Remy has always been the black sheep of the team, mostly due to his own self doubt stemming from the morlock incident. He’s never really thought of himself as a superhero, just a guy with incredible powers trying to make it through life with as little pain as possible.
What’s really tragic is that the actress who plays as Rogue, Lenore Zann, is using her raw emotions of losing her 17 year old niece to cancer when she’s crying over Gambit.
Who told you that? kinda messed up tbh. she was crying over the fact she could finally touch him but couldnt feel him.... the loss of a lover, not a child/family member.
@@nullakjg767actors pull from real life experiences sometimes. This was one of those situations where she pulled from one tragedy to put emotion into this tragic performance.
@@nullakjg767 no. She used her emotion that she felt for losing one loved to portray the emotion rogue felt losing her loved one. It’s not as difficult as you’re making it out to be.
This episode was phenomenal! Everything from the animation, writing, music and even the soap opera drama and twists were outstanding. Rogue and Gambit's relationship is so interesting and poetic, with excellent writing, almost Shakespearean. That ending alone had my mouth on the floor. Gambit went out like an *ABSOLUTE G SAVING EVERYONE LEFT ON GENOSHA!!!* Rogue: "Sugar... I can't feel you," nah I can't😭 I loved seeing my boy Nightcrawler, too; he's always been my favourite X-men. Magneto had some of the hardest lines Ive ever heard in this episode alone. I got to say Scott's outburst was pretty well deserved since hes constantly lost people hes cared about in order to save humans who constantly hate and threaten them, slowly starting to become as cynical about humanity as Magneto is, and I mean can you blame him. Also I dont dont see why Jean is mad at Scott since Madelyn was the Jean he fell in love with and gave birth to his child, and he had no idea about this and after processing losing his son, Scott isnt exactly sure what to hold onto especially when hes tied to Jean and subconsciously owe to Jean to make up for all the lost time they had and yet Jean says he was cheating when she straight up kissed Logan earlier, she cheated on him as much as he unknowingly did the same thing. The Genosha Tri-Sentinel massacre was the equivalent of a Mutant 9/11 and seeing the brutality and devastation is heartbreaking. Truly this show is PEAK MARVEL MEDIA!
16:39 This gets brought up a lot and I hate how even in 97 they never explained it: The radiation from the power inhibitor collars causes immense pain. Also in the comics Rogue was sexually abused multiple times the last time she was collared and would never wear one because of it. Actually, Rogue's history of abuse is the reason why she can't turn off her powers in the first place. The psychological trauma created a mental block. There was a time she was able to control her powers and found out that not only could she be touched, but could also copy other mutant powers just by being in proximity and even suppress them.
tv series rule #1:if there's an episode that's fun, happy, and too good to be true it's because it is and the next episode is gonna tear your heart out
The path is set. This turning point was amazing and this episode will always be on my mind. The one nitpick I can think of is that the show's version of Genosha _seems_ much smaller. It doesn't look like that would home even a few million people, let alone >16 million.
The original lineup of Excalibur was based somewhere near Liverpool (in a lighthouse) - it's members were Nightcrawler, Captain Britain, Meggan, Rachel Summers and Kitty Pryde. Excellent series with a different tone than the other X-titles at the time. Stories by Claremont and Alan Davis, who's British I believe. If Disney ever did an animated series on that title, it'd be cool, but I doubt it'll ever happen. Loved the art as a kid (by Davis).
Just like your hubby, Gambit is also my fav X-Men. It's a great episode, but it is sad to see him go down 😢. (Fortunately for comicbook characters in this universe, I know he'll be back one day).

Came to the comments 2 say something similar. Lol
@@DominotioMentalisBritish people be like
"Anything happens to Gambit, I'ma freak!" Uh oh...
... When she said that...oh boy
Moira MacTaggert is indeed Scottish and lives on Muir Island, Scotland.
Gambit isnt strong enough to do what exactly? Gambit is HIM. Try to remeber it..

I wouldn’t say dead after endgame, I would put a couple of projects up there but most of its work were pretty unconsumable.

“Anything happens to Gambit Ima freak” famous last words
Gambit raised the stakes and went all in
REMEMBER IT

Oh gosh…I was waiting for this one, I have trouble watching it again, but I wanted to see this reaction.
“There can be only one”……”The Highlander!” 😂😂 Love it!
Cable real name, Nathan Charles Summers.
Cable, Nathan Charles Dayspring Summers, the Askani' Son...
The guy has more names than real fingers! Loll
This episode was truly amazing seeing my favorite x men nightcrawler and the way this episode went from 0 to 100 was insane
tv series rule #1:if there's an episode that's fun, happy, and too good to be true it's because it is and the next episode is gonna tear your heart out
Gambit has an Acadian accent and rogue has a southern US accent.
I like the Biggest reaction was when Scott said “ I was checking in on her after she moved overseas” OMG NOOOOOOO 😂
The path is set. This turning point was amazing and this episode will always be on my mind.

I love nightcrawler. Truly the best xmen

I love This episode, gambit was My favorite Xmen when i was a child, luck Will always be with You mona mi
“Don’t you dare try and turn it around on her”
Sorry real physical cheating will always be worse than mentally cheating. Jean is a hypocrite.
So is Suzy
Im new to the channel. I like how bubbly both were at the start of the episode. Was purely waiting on that reaction. Lol
yeah didn't that episode hit so hard? probably one of the best episodes of television I've ever seen. the title of the episode definitely fits.
Just like your hubby, Gambit is also my fav X-Men. It's a great episode, but it is sad to see him go down 😢. (Fortunately for comicbook characters in this universe, I know he'll be back one day).
He went out as a badass.
Rogue (sarah connor)
Gambit (kyle reese)
Gambit the Big hero
😭😭😭😭
Keep watching it get crazy
Cable aka Nathan Summers is the son of Cyclops and Jean clone/Madelyne Pryor...He is time traveler
Best episode ever made despite crying a lot at the end
They got 9 episodes out with the finale out next week. You need to catch up!
Already watched them all. They are on my website right now. www.suzylu.co.uk/
@@SuzyLuOfficial sweet!
s club 7 was my shit back in the day!
This was an awesome episode
I didn't skip❤❤❤
I love your singing Suzy 🙂 great video too 🙂
❤😮 We were all overcome by this emotion, Marvel returned to its comic book origins, to exciting anime
In the comics they explain that wearing the collars causes pain and PTSD. Also they're a symbol of mutant oppression.
Look how it massacred our family.
S Club 7 😂
perfect analysis: everything is happening but what just happened 😳
I mean, if the older man is built like Magneto...
Banshee and Moira had awful accents when they appeared in the original series. So they kept them for this...
Will you play the garten of banban games please
😭💜💜💜😭
Just wait it gets better
Awesome video
Born 88........ 😢 Lol
89 baby here! We are the best. :)
I wonder what name you wanted to say at 16:55? Probably Joe Biden.
great reaction. this show is Fire.
No no she is correct they are both Southern Accents, Louisiana is in the south
But no she’s not, one is a standard southern accent from rogue, and gambit is a Cajun accent. They’re different
@@savageman086 and cajun is from Louisiana which is a Southern state so yes they are both Southern Accents
