First 10 minutes we also get a fastball special and Wolverine saying “I’m just a sub” so canonically good X-men movie so far
Ya know, the digital deaging in the last stand isn’t that bad.

A cool thing is that my Spawn podcast hit 100 episodes! If you want to talk about Soawn let me know.
The stacks of bones was me finally seeing myself onscreen. Representation does, in fact, matter.
X-Men comics fans. Where we at on X-Men ‘97? Like, it’s fine, right? I know it made Cyclops cool. But I can’t forgive that Inferno adaptation.
Congrats!!

They are bad b/c they don't care about protecting the humanity of other people
I can introduce you to lots of people with felonies or addiction who work every day to HELP PEOPLE
Also I glossed over it but Zidane’s job being “theater pirate” is incredible.
Love that everyone accepts Dagger’s chosen name immediately.
Zidane reminds me too much of my ex boyfriend in a nice way.
Vivi is my fave though.
I love all these characters immediately. Such a great opening despite its simplicity.
Finally going to finish FF9. A thread.
I started actually writing again today out of spite. Because I’m listening to a recent well-regarded piece of work that is so egregiously bad that it makes me truly believe that the internet was a mistake.
It’s kinda crazy how hot they made Magneto in #XMen97
Breaking: the Trump admin has “temporarily” paused enforcement of a Biden-era silica rule that was aimed at combating the rising black lung crisis in Appalachia.
