Watch the trailer here.
Wolverine is overrated, as usual, but if it results in Gambit/Nightcrawler/White Queen awesomeness, then sign me up.
I miss the original style though. It's a shame things have become progressively more anime-y (sup x-men evolution?), although at least they have the old costume styles.
Ororo-ro-ro, get a haircut.
I agree...90s X-Men for the win?
You weren't kidding when you said Wolverine was over-rated. D=
I was going to say that Wolverine is too awesome to ever be overrated, but the show is called "Wolverine and the X-Men." xD It doesn't look very good, honestly. I'll never be able to tolerate Wolverine with a voice that isn't his 90s voice. xP That was perfect.
I just watched the opening part of the trailer XD OMG this is bad XD The 90s was no master piece at all but at least it didn't look just laughable XD
......they can't do this to me.
Why the hell did they turn Xavier into Zordon from the Power Rangers? This honestly just looks like any cartoon you find on TV these days. I guess they had crap on the agenda when making this.
BECAUSE ZORDON WAS AMAZING
Not saying he wasnt.
well, cyclops always has and will be the leader in my eyes
im chuffed they put Kitty into it
the voices suck but it seems ok
Wow, the character designs AND the dialog are terrible.
Hm, I'll give it a shot. I do like me some X-Men.
Boo change! How dare they attempt to appeal to the current children's market. It's us 25~30 year olds they should be concerning themselves with.
i wish they had it on dvd :(Quote:

I'll give it a shot. I'm not feeling Wolverine as the main protagonist, but having Domino, Forge, Wolfsbane, Polaris and other fun minor mutants in the trailer has kept me interested.
Besides, nothing will ever top the 90's X-Men cartoon so it would be silly to expect this to.
Wolverine is, like, the opposite of a leader.
Wolverine as the leader makes Cyclops irrelevant. Why is he even in the show?
I think at this point, Wolverine is aimed to make EVERYONE and EVERYTHING irrelevant.Quote:

As sad as it sounds, I never really liked him. Now I have a reason to dislike him more.
If they want to make a Wolverine show, they should do it. He has his own comic series!
And his own video game. And soon his own major motion picture.Quote:

I think they should have more media revolving around Ultimate-verse personally.
I don't expect much, but I will give it a shot, hell, at least it has Gambit.
X-MEN: Evolution wasn't that bad, but this looks terrible.
A whole bunch of yes. There's an Ultimate Spider-Man game and two animated movies based on The Ultimates. That's not enough. D:Quote:

Hank McCoy for president!
Am I the only one who hated the 90's series?
This new one looks pretty good. I for one will definitely watch it, although I doubt I'll enjoy it was much was Evolution. That was win imo.
I didn't hate it by any means, but I did try to watch it after having not seen it for a good ten or so years and I couldn't believe how ugly it was and how bad animation it had. I recall watching it all the time as a kid though.Quote:

I have the whole thing on my hard drive. xD
I thought that the 90's Series was the best that it could be at the time. I watched the entire series about a month or two ago and I could see some obvious censoring of the storyline, dialogue, and other things, so I can see why it would not appeal to fan of the comic books or the franchise.Quote:

The plot seems iffy, and I'd love if Marvel just did a direct cartoon to the Cival War arc that's currently going on in Marvel. :)
I'm still gonna watch this version tho, but I still think the 90's cartoon FTW.
:)
PS: The voice actor that does Magneto's voice in this cartoon is the same one that does Xavier's in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.
That ended last year. :P It'd make an awesome cartoon, but you'd probably have to know a lot of the backstory to make any sense out of it. Though I suppose they could write around that.Quote:

I think the story could go either way, but given how few cartoons these days treat their audience like they can handle well written stories with some maturity to them, I doubt it will be very good.
