I see that Netflix has X-Men Animated Series currently streaming. Is it worth my time? I hear that it's one of the best "cartoons" ever made.

Definitely. Picked up the DVD's awhile back having only watched an episode or two in passing when it first aired. Enjoyed it greatly. On that note, if it's on Netflix why not just try it for yourself. It's like asking if you'll like a game after buying it. You'll enjoy your time watching that more than browsing the same old topics on GAF probably.

Yes, it's good. I also recommend the Spiderman cartoon (which is better imo).

I started watching it again recently on Youtube and was surprised how complex it was for a children's cartoon. You always see those vids of the super cheesy dialogue, which is present, but for the most part it's a very solid show

It hasn't aged all that well, but still pretty enjoyable.

Where'd you hear that? That's the rose-tinted glasses talking.

It hasn't aged well, but definitely the second best Marvel cartoon of that era after Spider-Man.

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

It doesn't really hold up that well. It's mostly just watered down Chris Claremont stories. It's good if you're a kid who's never been exposed to the X-Men but it doesn't compare to something like Batman TAS.

 

[Escape Goat]

Its got some shitacular animation that will not hold up well today. You probably won't get too far unless you're crazy about the X-Men.

 

[ReiGun]

I didn't really like this show as a kid. I thought the X-men were pretty lame.

That said, I've been kind of getting into it on Netflix. But man. Dat animation...

When Saturday cartoons were fucking SERIOUS. Loved it.

Writing for a children's cartoon is exceptional, animation and design is really dated and poor.

Yeah, if they used a cleaned up dub track with new widescreen HD animation on a par with today's best, it would be sick.
