Episode 32 - "Out of the Past, Part 2," X-Men: The Animated Series

"Out of the Past, Part 2" isn't nearly as hilarious as "Part 1." It's downright spooky, actually, thanks to some impressive animation and sound design choices on the part of the X-Men: The Animated Series season three creative team. Except, uh... Maddy and Ryan also thought the writing was a bit boring. We wanted Lady Deathstrike to give us more silly monologues about her feelings! At least we still have Gambit pining after his boyfriend Wolverine, plus a fun scene of Beast in an art gallery, and also Jean and Scott trying and failing to go on a date. By the way, Xavier is back on his bullshit again in this episode. Is he ever not? X-Men Spotlight: THE REAVERS! Terminator meets RoboCop meets ... the Cylons? Sure. They're a mishmash of '80s cyborg and robot tropes, and we're still not convinced there's any deeper meaning to be gleaned from them.
