    Do you think Magneto knew what was going to happen to Storm?
  • @maxfreer6455
    Storm turning the sand into glass was chef’s kiss
  • @cybervenom2001
    I spit my tea at the "Who?! Apocalypse!" and Jean being all "Really?!"
  • magneto's monologues in episode two gave me chills. they were so well written and Matthew Waterson's delivery of the lines were incredible!!!
  • @MinuteMon
    I love that Morph is the one to open the door to see Jean Grey, signaling to the viewers that it isn’t Morph in disguise
  • @chrislee4740
    I love that Magneto basically tells all the humans he wants to kill them but Charles wouldnt like it
  • @Gaberille
    Storm and cyclops’s carried these 2 eps for me!!! Heavy on storm!😩😩
  • @joeyteter9383
    “Omega level threat detected” was such a goosebumps moment. So cool
  • @samcoger
    Random Storm sound bites 😂😂😂
  • @luisr6594
    40:23 I loved that word play too, “Do not make me let you down.”It’s a perfect metaphor as much as it is a threat. Not only is he talking about dropping them but He’s saying if they or someone else in power tries to force mutates back toward extinction we will undo all they good he’s willing make with them.
  • @ToneDesh
    “Give’em the forecast!” They brought the classic back and made it even better.. 👌🏾
  • @zetesta
    I've never thought that I would enjoy this episodes so much... With really deep themes that are always current... They were perfect
  • @Hamodey-vf4uq
    The writing of Storm and Magneto was the chef's kiss plus the nestolgia
  • @logogl06
    They kept the dialogue stellar and made the animation so much more expressive, 10/10 so far
  • @JustALittolBear
    I really love that Cyclop’s eye beams are shown as concussive, kinetic forceful blasts as they should be and not laser eye beams like so much X-Men media has done before. Having just finished your Snikkt Snikkt rewatch, it really draws attention to how misunderstood Cyclop’s optic blasts are by most directors.
  • @BlackheArt-lo1up
    Magneto's tear is a sign of him trying so hard to hold himself back from destroying the humans in honor of his friend's wish.
