It actually isn't a retcon they took the story straight from the comics from the 90s. I hated that Rogue cheated on Gambit as a kid.

I know but if s a region in the animated series. Go back to.season one when they first battled magneto. There was no tension between rogue and magneto. They barely knew each other.

Yeah I understand but the only thing I can say is, they explained that they both acted like nothing happened.
The dynamic changed because Magneto went from a villain on the battle field to living in the house with them.

Since it happened in the comics I don't see this as a retcon but more the cartoon is staying true to the source material.

This show has been great, and episode 5 was solidly amazing. But I do think people are trying a little too hard to crown it. I get it. We have been starved for X-Men content, especially good content. But acting like a live action run cannot be successful compared to this is a little much, IMO.

That said, I respect people's right to be hype , so I'm not trying to come down on anyone feeling good about it. I'm just saying.

The world was a seemingly safer place for us, where a character like Storm would comment on how skin-based racism was ‘quaint’ in One Man's Worth [the season 4 opener for the original X-Men animated series] .​

What's the last live action Marvel content that was even just a bit more than decent?

Man, I've been trying to figure out what the hell was going on in my neighborhood about 24:40 into episode 5. Shit got weird and chaotic and all of a sudden, I think my neighbor started chopping onions. 30:11 "Don't be afraid" What? Onions.
31:36 "Remember it" WTF? More onions? How many onions are they gonna chop up in this bitch?
32:28 "Sugah..." So many onions! I wish these mfkaz would stop with all of the onion chopping while I'm trying to watch the show!

Personally, I have liked the last few Marvel live action projects. I know that puts me in the minority in a lot of ways, which is why I'm not debating what's great versus what isn't. The last thing I was fairly unsatisfied with was Secret Invasion, but even the majority of that was visually sound.

All I'm saying is that I believe that it is possible for them to create a successful live action project. If not on par with this, then pretty close. And I think it's a trap to declare this the GOAT and act like something can't be better, because it's just setting yourself up to be disappointed in whatever comes next. But again, really not trying to have a heavy argument over it, because it's not that serious.

I don't see anyone saying this series is the goat and can never be equaled.

There is nothing stopping them making great live action content but themselves.

I was also referencing people from my own sphere of influence, but from this very thread:

I don't know how the live action MCU X-Men will be able to top this....

Very simple. THEY WON'T.

Naw….i don’t think so they maybe should’ve done live action first….this shit too good.

Arguably some hyperbole going on, but people are saying something close to that.

I never said it was the goat what I said was that I don’t think the live action can top this series because Hollywood will be involved in the films…
