We're doing a Lingering Questions episode TOMORROW (Thursday) about this episode of X-Men '97 - what kind of questions do you have as we head towards the finale? Drop em as a reply and we might answer some tomorrow!
How do you think marvel can bring the X-men 97 characters into the live action mcu and how do you think they will introduce them
Is it possible that everyone in the animated universe might unite together in this?
Or could we see Avengers vs X-Men?
Bonus: might there be more division, where Magneto has a new brotherhood?
What’s your thoughts on Season 2 we see Orchis. The unseen female talking to Bastion being Moria Or Karima?
While 7:04 could be Madame Hydra, I feel like Zemo would take on the Hydra representative. With Episode 5 ending with Genosha destroyed, it all started with a party which seemed inspired by the Hellfire Gala which was attacked by Orchis Sentinels.
What other villains could Bastion have been speaking to? Could Attuma/Namor have been present?
Will the X-Men find out about the Xavier Protocols?
It’s been 8 episodes Disney + I’m not skipping the intro lol
🫡100% same. Never skip, it is a part of the experience with every episode
They can just stop asking nobody is skipping that theme😆🫡
Same. And I turn my ear bud volume all the way up. And huge a smile is on my face.
Every time.
Skip it?? I'm learning to play it on guitar!
It hits every single time!
I can't believe nobody mentioned how this is the first time we're seeing Wolverine stabbing and dismembering limbs since the network didn't allow it in the original run
So fun to see him go off that airborne fight was wild
wrong channel🤣
If you didn’t have a Porsche in your supersonic jet in the 90s what are you even doing?
Keeping a Mazda like any normal person would.
"If Jubilee was practicing in the Danger Room like I suggested, instead of goofing off with video games, she'd be able to fly by now." ~ Max "Magneto" Eisenhardt, 1997
Quote, end quote😂
I really thought she was gonna pull off the plasmoid/firework skates that she saw her older self to do.😂
Next time, baby (hopefully).😅
X in the City. It's right there
seX and the goo or Goo and the city is the crossover I NEVER expected to think about. 😂
This show just keeps getting better and better!
Since Magneto is declaring global war, I can see them using a lot more Marvel characters in the next two episodes. It would make sense for SHIELD and the Avengers to be involved if Magneto is going to war against all the nations of the world.
Yea, I can't see the Avengers sitting on the side lines.
@@eon001
Hulk is jumping his ass Loki style.
That's all well and good, but it's still the X-Men's show. Take note of how they've used Cap, Doom and Zemo. There are always ways to say Avengers, SHIELD, etc. are fighting some mutants aligned with Magneto in one location while 95% of the focus stays on the X-Men. It's not impossible, but don't get your hopes too high you'll be seeing a full crossover of other teams.
MAGNETO IS MAGNIFICENT
This is it. This is the comment
Magneto killed everyone on life support 😭
Its that or his species is enslaved or killed so I can’t blame the guy.
Eren Jaeger and Paul Atreides were right, sorry everyone else! We have some stuff to do!
Not to mention all the people on airplanes or driving in cars. No way all those nuclear power plants aren't going into meltdown too.
The plane crashes! Don't forget about the plane crashes!
Better hope the sea insulated from the EMP or people on submarines aren't having a great day either.
Brandon was nailing runs on this one. :D Laughed hard at the Halloween bit!
I’m watching this for a second time because I laughed so hard 😂
Omg yess that was hilarious 😂
I don't know what's better anymore: X Men '97 or the Breakroom Aftershow that keeps talking about the goo
Mystique is the new Mephisto
There are some breakroom episodes that are good. Most of them. And then there are episodes where certain people get together and things go OFF THE RAILS. This is one of those episodes. Hysterical!
Yes!
The obvious title for your crossover idea is “X and The City.”
Brandon was ON ONE this episode with all the zingers and bits. Had me crying laughing for 30 minutes straight 😂
Pretty sure the implication is that all those human/nimrod hybrids died after they were transformed. They just seemed like mindless drones controlled by Bastion after that point.
They aren't mindless cuz Jean said she can still hear their thoughts, they're just dormant
The “genoshan motion of the ocean” is the joke you were looking for.
Wolverines falling thru the sky slashing Optimus primes the whole way down was BA!!
It’s so sad Magento said to the UN and Val Cooper “Do not make me Let you Down” and they did womp womp😪
this episode was so wholesome, esp the part where Brandon had both women laughing uncontrollably. Love this show. Great content..
I really thought Storm would come and help the Summers in the desert, and see her reunion with Jean
Nightcrawler gives the best qoutes
X in the City
I love how the grandma was a mix of Killa Grannie and the Mom from It 2 ..perfect
It gave me a little Hereditary and It Follows too
Ian McKellen: Hold my beer!
I LOVE JESSICA
Guys remember nightcrawler chooses to be a peaceful man that doesn’t mean he doesn’t know how to fight and defend himself. He just chooses the path of peace, but you push that he will push back.
Regarding the Gooing, Bastion stated that he lured people in that felt disillusioned, in fear of replacement, afraid, etc. but that they weren't told what would be done to them. So I'm sure Trish and others could have had minor gripes or mere curiosity and be lumped in all the same with people with major hate in their hearts for mutants to be gooed without any consent or knowledge of being turned into a killer cyborg.
I need more of this lineup, it was so perfectly and hilariously unhinged
Can’t wait for the “Magneto Was Right” merch
This episode was soo good.
This is the first time I'm giving an episode of the show 5/5. Episode 5 was a 4.5 and I thought that was the peak for the show until now. The pacing felt good. This being a 3 parter helps I think. The best thing of this episode.. Wolverine FINALLY got something to do. He has been completely wasted this entire season until now.
I'm also VERY happy that they gave him the fight scene with Nightcrawler and not Morph. I've always loved Wolverine and Nightcrawler friendship.
I hope this isn't the only Wolverine basassery we see though. I want more!!
Magento was right.. Loved it!!
Spiderman showing up was cool.. I was sort of hoping we would have seen more heroes just reacting, but I'll take it.
Oh, Dr. Doom, Zemo, Silver Samurai and Omega Red!! Other "cameos".. not sure but was Bastion also talking to Killmonger and Madame Hydra? (I thought maybe Tyger Tiger? but Madame Hydra makes more sense) Interesting scene with heads of state. I was looking for Namor as well, but couldn't find him.
And the end.. "To me my X-Men!" YES!!! I am so excited for Episodes 9 and 10!!
Cable was also in Genosha during the original X-Men series so I think that freeing Genosha in that arc was the only thing he could change.
The Gala and the massacre happens no matter what he does though
My take before a lot of the show started to seem less like a time reset would save Magneto was always that even if we get a time episode, the outcome would always come out worse as long as Gambit survived, so he'd ultimately sacrifice himself again to save the most people possible. Despite Genosha itself not being reversed different people would die and others would live, leading to Magneto and Madelyne's survival. Now that we got Magneto surviving on his own, I'm less inclined to believe they'd do it just to get Madelyne back.
Either way, we still have other options for at least 4 mutants to be returned to us, as Horsemen of Apocalypse.
That global EMP wiped out hospitals include millions of people connected to life-saving medical equipment.
Also, all the planes in the sky, the ships stuck out in the ocean, underground trains, submarines, etc.
There's backup EM power - let my BAE 💚MAGNETO RAGE. He deserves it
ok and? millions were massacred in genosha.
@@christianfernandez91Exactly. Genosha happened and the powers that be sat back and offered no help due to “optics”.
@@MrRobinson758 I mean the regular everyday people connected to life support or in planes had no say in what the powers that be did or didn't do lol. I'm sure some of them hate mutants but some of them definitely don't, they got wiped out all the same. Magneto didn't really have a choice in the matter because he had to stop the sentinels from killing more mutants, but let's not act like he _didn't_ just kill millions of people who are essentially collaterol damage in the mutant-human conflict and not directly responsible for all the shit that mutants deal with.
@@Lisa_Flowers Regular non combative mutants died on Genosha too. Most of which just wanted to escape to a place where they could be themselves without worrying about hateful humans. They’re also collateral damage. I mean we could “tit for tat” this all day, but the fact remains, everything started with hateful humans. The attacks on mutants and the lack of assistance after. Every life Magneto took was the result of that. The government could’ve shut it down (at least tried to) or provided some REAL help after. They chose not to in both instances. That’s indisputable fact. Simply put, it’s all the humans fault. No attack on Genosha, no attack by Magneto.
Leave it to the thirst queen to notice Omega Red's package. Lol Respect to my queen.
The joke wasn’t a 69 joke! It was a “nine / nein” joke!
LMAO the layersssss
It was BOTH, babes.
12:09 nahhh im deadddd😭Jess sets it up but Brandon killssss me
“I’m not going to write a cheque anymore, her son’s a muuutanttt”
“Have you heard about the gooo?”
his accents with his jokes always get me man 🤣
OMG, Jessica & "Magneto In a Speedo". Lady, he's at least 80 but he's FLY!!!!!!
Zemo and doom looks like their counterparts from avengers Earths mightiest hero. At least design wise
We only got to see Spider-Man's hand/wrist webbing a civilian to safety in the original series so it's actually super cool to see the whole actual character this time around! 🙌🏽🕷🕸
THANKS for this, BreakRoom Gang!!!! "BreakRoom Fan Fiction?" I can imagine.... :)
Another cool thing the sentinel that “killed” Magneto said “OMEGA LEVEL “THREAT” and Cable last episode used electro magnetic grenade to stop them hinting at Magneto was the one to declare War
I went nuts when Nightcrawler was using the swords against the sentinel zombies. So lit to see my favourite Marvel character being a badass. It’s nice that they show how cool he can be because throughout the moments he’s been on screen so far, he’s been giving these very amazing life lessons to the others. I like that we get to see how much fun he brings in combat. That mid teleportation scene was awesome. Can’t wait to see what happens next! 😁💙🖤❤️
This episode is unhinged in all the best ways LOL
❤😅 i’ve got a theory about Trish and the Butler. I have a feeling that they were taken and goo’d as you say against their will, but since they were wiped, so they don’t remember in order to use them as plants because Bastian would know who is a mutant and not sure he knew Roberto was a mutant so he had the Butler as a plant just in case because of beast she was a plant
Poor Patricia.
Oh thats why The Watcher was there! He was watching Cable keep trying to save everyone like he watched Strange keep trying to save Christine
That was a sex dungeon that doubled as an evil lair
Would love to see Cable use his telekinesis to hold his weapons up.
Xmen - green goo changes you and makes you forget
Producers from Nick - throws green goo, changes the kids, and they all try and forget what saw/did lol
Whoever wrote Magneto definitely took inspiration directly from Sir Ian McKellen roles including as magneto and Gandalf
Sprinkled with a bit of Michael Fassbender pathos and swagger.
and if she's constantly surrounded by mutant sensors, there is no way she could be mystique
Some sort of tech Forge cooked up for him...? At this point I'm happy with Val being a human ally, she's a great character on her own. But NO way would the real Doctor Valerie Cooper be working with Mister Sinister (Sinister trusting Val enough to reveal to her that he's also using Bastion) so I think she may turn out to be Mystique who will transform & fùck shït up/ save the day in an even more dramatic & dire moment.
Storm has fr been BIG chillin. She could've used lightning as natural EMPs to knock out those sentinels, instead of Magneto causing all that collateral damage you guys were talkin about
I mean its easy to say, why isn’t she here when don’t know what’s going on with her just yet.
The closed captions did say [Dr. Doom] and it's not like if someone saw a Latvarian listed in the credits, they wouldn't assume Von Doom was involved.
Beasts machine didnt activate them, Bastion was making his move.
In Jean Greys last shot in this episode she has the pony tail. When Xavier calls his X-men, the hair is down. Madelyn alive confirmation?
54:10 this keeps happening to me too. Everytime I'm like damnit Morph!
Yall had fun in this breakroom, freaking hilarious 😂 I had such a good laugh from yall. Thank you!
I do think the watcher being there for genosha just means he’ll bring It up later on at some point
This Watcher might only Watch. Not all of them get involved.
Tony Stark from 'Endgame':
"You mess with time, it tends to mess back."
"Sex in the Sentinel"
I'd watch that show
Watching Wolverine falling and cutting the prime's into pieces was beautiful
Sweet!! Always look forward to your reviews 🙌🏾
I’m all onboard for “X in the city”
This video was so fun! You guys are great
Mang! Brandon Barrick makes every breakroom hilarious and so fun to watch 👏🏼😂
When Eric was going on about how ‘we’ all know Dr Val Cooper was Mystique I rolled my eyes and added my reply saying I really don’t think it is and listed several reasons including Wolverine being able to smell the difference and the three telepaths being able to tell and lastly her not being identified as a mutant by the Sentinel during the attack- but that rumor persisted and I was thinking …Mephisto!
I’m so glad I was right and Dr Val Cooper was just Val! Val in the comics put together Xfactor and she had some good story arch’s of betrayal so I just thought it would be more interesting having her be herself so I applaud Beau for that!
MAGNETO WAS RIGHT- that final speech that she did was poignant and summed up some of our troubles today quite well!
What a powerful episode!!
At this point I'm happy with Val being a human ally, she's a great character on her own. But NO way would the real Doctor Valerie Cooper be working with Mister Sinister (Sinister trusting Val enough to reveal to her that he's also using Bastion) so I think she may turn out to be Mystique who will transform & fùck shït up/ save the day in an even more dramatic & dire moment.
@@Jumpoable the real Val Cooper in the comic betrayed the team too and have affiliations with people that were connected to sentinel programs so it’s not that far a reach. My interpretation is that it’s been settled and that Val is Val based on the last episode and comments Beau has been liking on Twitter
No matter how funny this episode is, the most amazing thing about it is Jessica's perfect hair!
Ugh, I can't believe I missed a Gina episode!!!!!!
These children have been driven MAD by Episode 8. But I loved the unhinged conversation, especially the X and the City fanfic.
I was not expecting this series to be this great. It's blowing me away.
What if Sinister and Bastion planned for the prime sentinel program to start whenever Trask got killed?
This episode! I’m like Jessica, stop it my stomach hurts!! 😂 🤣 😂
In the comics didn’t Baston open up health clinics to infect people? It would be easy to infect people without society knowing. Health clinics, spas, public showers for the poor/homeless. It is possible. Put it in the food and drinks.
Did Professor X arrive right on time? Idk, he's gonna bring us right back to square one. 2nd Magneto is right only because Bastian pushed him over the edge. Bastian is the 2nd to do so. Remember, at the end of the original series, Magneto "snapped" but stood down because his best friend was dying.
I’m SMELLING house and powers of x after this. Charles was radicalized and started doing straight up evil stuff
😂😂😂😂😂 ❤❤ this has got to be the funniest episode yet. My ribs are hurting just as much as Jessica‘s. Gina had me in tears. And Brandon as always since day one of you being in front of the camera, you have me rolling on the floor laughing. Fantastic episode guys as always.
The people on gas powered jet ski were higher on their list of people effected by magneto than everyone in a hospital and I love it
MOBIUS CAMEO CONFIRMED??
Charles coming back and Him and Magneto as Allies is never a good thing for the bad people In X-Men. There will be a cliff hanger so a season 2 cause X-men will be big thing now for years to come
11:33 he’s fully sunspotted😭😭😂
I don't think Hank activated them. I think Bastion's mom was the trigger, cause Bastion knew they were going to go there and find her... I just think it was happening at the same time as Beast's discover because if he found out before he could have warned them.
I couldn't help but think of the Yeerks in the Animorphs series when I saw how the prime sentinels were being made... 🤔
12:22 Brandon is so funny!!! 😂😂😂
Brandon's really been on fire with the bits lately 😂
“Just ask for a sandwich!!” 😂😂😂
If the idea of the Prime sentinel is true to the comics once you become a prime sentinel, that’s it you’re done there’s no reverting back to being a human again. That does not necessarily mean they can do some weird shit that they get humanity back.
It makes sense that we saw the watcher because he's probably watching that absolute point of genosha over and over.
Come onnnnn “X IN THE CITY” was right there for the taking!! 24:05
(Or XXX IN THE CITY)
FWIW I went on airbnb today and on the top of the front page was a listing for the X Mansion experience hosted by Jubilee
It looks so cool! What a fun collab
@@BreakroomNRdo y’all got the budget to review it or naaahhhhhh
BRANDON THIS IS AMERICA ITS A PORCHE
It would be interesting if they left the season finale on a cliff hanger and What If picked up the story in one of the episodes, considering we saw the watcher, it might be a hint.
I'm confused about Dr. Cooper...is she not Mystique? If she isn't, how is she not a mutant? When she gave her 'Magneto was right speech' she said things like 'we' when talking about how most mutants deal with shit like genosha every day and still have to go to work every morning. That and her literally saying Magneto was right is really giving 'i'm a mutant' lol.
At this point I'm happy with Val being a human ally, she's a great character on her own. But NO way would the real Doctor Valerie Cooper be working with Mister Sinister (Sinister trusting Val enough to reveal to her that he's also using Bastion) so I think she may turn out to be Mystique who will transform & fùck shït up/ save the day in an even more dramatic & dire moment.
Juggernaut is loose, right now.
This was a HILARIOUS episode! Constant laughs and great running jokes. I like this lineup, no offense to the other lineups.
By the way, when will someone finally tell Morph to stop being the first one to jump into action at every fight scene? Morph gets OWNED every single time! Just stand down, homie
this trio is UNMATCHED
The Mazda 5 wasn’t around in 97. This is how they fixed that, and it was awesome.
Omega red is clearly Aidan in my casting of" X and the city- and Good like that"
13:50 that feeling when you kill it
Gotta be just X in the City
In one man's worth you do see Mr. Sinister fighting the sentinels in the background of a scene
i am in loved with Gina and Jessica❤❤❤❤❤
