Marvel Animation: X-Men '97

That theme is rad.

So was Gambit riding Wolverine into battle while charging up his claws.

And “TO ME, MY X-MEN”. Ah, love it.

The theme song was always a banger. I probably haven't heard it in 25 years and I'd immediately recognize where it came from. They HAD to bring it back...

That theme brings back all the nostalgia. I probably went through 1,000s of AA batteries on my game gear playing the X-men game.

I didn’t hate the second generation of the X-men movies as much as the public, but I’m hoping they do it justice going forward

The second-gen X-Men flicks were hit or miss. I thought First Class was OK, just boring. Apocalypse wasn’t a good movie. Days of Future Past was probably the best X-Men movie of the whole bunch (X2 was great and if you consider Logan a part of the X run then that is a challenger as well).

They did a great job with the casting of McAvoy and Fassbender. That’s for damn sure.

Still, both trilogies (as well as the Logan movies) have been underwhelming overall. They really need to stick the landing with this next shot.
