Gotta say, my interest in X-Men (the entire franchise) didn't last very long. I used to read quite a bit of X-Men back in the day. These day, I'm kinda over it, and not even in a "comics these days suck" way. It's just not that interesting to me anymore. I guess it was a phase after all.
It's a difficult franchise to get into or stay interested in for multiple reasons. The characters all being retconned to hell and back doesn't help. And the fact that there is no progression to look forward to. If they're not a sort of minority being persecuted ad infinitum it just doesn't seem the same. I often think I was a big X-men fan but then sometimes it seems I really just liked Claremont's work, because the guy was a pretty great writer.
X-Men 97 last episode was not too bad I guess. Looks like the band is getting back together. Well most of it.
Yeah, entertainment these days seems to give people heavy "prisoner of the moment" reactions. People are saying that show is amazing. Two or so episodes were really good, but, the other ones are kind of meh. Things feel really rushed too but I guess you have to excuse it because they only have 10 episodes or so.
Dick should be better than Batman because he is more athletic and has been in the business nearly as long as him and has had all his knowledge on top of the likes of Deathstroke, the titans, the JLA, Richard Dragon, and Lady Shiva.
I've never understood this either. Not only did Dick start training at a younger age than Batman, but he also has agility that's often considered almost superhuman that's blended in with his fighting ability. I don't know if he should be in a class above Batman but he should be right below him. Instead, he is usually listed after the likes of Black Canary, Bronze Tiger etc.
It means that there is a lot of political ideas favored by far left reddit/twitter types injected into the show for no other reason then to pander to said types.
I swear, you "there is no such thing s woke" people are too much. It's like pointing to something that's the color green, and having to explain to you why it's green.
Just a note, a lot of acrobatic fundamentals are present in "b-boying". Russia is very into acrobatics and its taught in school as part of their physical education. That's why Russian kids are like this.
