X-Men: E115 By Any Genes Necessary

from Remember Shuffle Hosted by Remember Shuffle

The Shuffle Bois, and returning guest Isaac, return to the well of comic book super hero fare to discuss the 2000s X-Men films. Being the pre-MCU, paleo-super hero films that they are, they can't help but be somewhat different from and more interesting than what came after. After summarizing the plots of the three main X-Men films from the decade, the Shuffle Bois talk themes - assimilation vs exclusivity, marginalization, and the LGTBQ allegory of these films, before closing out with a description of style and echoes in the culture.
