Marvel Animation: X-Men '97

Spoiler!

One thing that I just don't get is why everyone is like "Magneto is a huge piece of shit for doing what he did to the EMF of earth! We have to stop him!"

Bro, y'all were absolutely ****ing dead if he didn't do what he did. Like it was the end of the road for pretty much every mutant. Magneto saved all of their asses and their first thought is "wtf, dude?"

Another thing that Im not understanding is why did cyclops decide to blast Xavier? All he had to do is be like "hey bud now that you have control of all this dudes faculties let's hold off on this whole reversing thing until the other team has had more time. Jean showed some bad shit going down."

if they turn the electricity back on before bastion is taken care of all of the prime sentinels go back online. Essentially dooming all mutants.

Spoiler!

I realize that, but instead of blasting the professor he could have told him to not turn the electricity on and give them more time. Xavier had complete control over Magneto, so he was no longer a threat.

Hell, he could turn into Magneto and Proffesor X could do everything he wanted without having to use Magneto.

Why doesn’t he just turn into Thor every episode?

In all seriousness, I do love having him around just to be able to get some different looks each week. From memory, we’ve seen Colossus, Lady Deathstrike, Quicksilver and Hulk from Morph alone. That’s pretty awesome.

Spoiler!

You always have to keep the X-Men’s end goal in mind. They want peace between humans and mutants. They know the ramifications of Magneto’s action will make that peace nearly impossible. They said he killed thousands at least.

I was trying to think of how he killed anyone with what he did, but I guess people need electricity when hooked up to life support stuff like that, but what other option did he have? Everyone was going to die if he didn't do what he did.

don't forget about planes falling out of the air, hospitals without power, car crashes etc.

And while I agree he had no options as far as saving all mutants, the issue is that he will refuse to fix things. Even if bastion was taken out magneto would refuse to save humanity.

Xaviers view point is that attempted genocide isn't the path to take after an attempted genocide.
