Welcome to another "Special Edition" offseason Episode (#53) of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. Two of the 3 Old Men had the privilege to sit down and chat with Alvin Franklin (Sr Associate Athletics Director / Executive Director of Development at the University of Houston). The landscape in college athletics has shifted beneath our feet with the House Settlement finalizing on June 6th, and fans and listeners have questions amid the ensuing confusion. We spoke to Alvin about all things NIL, revenue sharing, and the Deloitte-led Clearinghouse as it relates to UH. Our questions went far and wide, so hopefully we hit the mark in clarifying some questions for folks (as well as dispelling some of the myths that are out there). - No Conference for Old Men is available for free via Spotify / Apple Podcast / SoundCloud & the GoCoogs.com website; we're also available via the Republic of Football Podcast feed from the folks at Dave Campbell's Texas Football as their only basketball-centric offering. - Intro / Exit music: Ground Zero provided by FreeBeats.io - Please follow us on https://gocoogs.com/old-men/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with Douglas Vigliotti about getting into reading, its hidden benefits and the Books For Men Podcast. Please note that this is the first part of a two-part interview with Doug. In the second part, I discuss his book, Aristotle for Novelists. I felt that this chat about his podcast and reading was long enough to warrant its own episode. Also, I wanted to avoid clickbaiting because this interview is nineteen minutes long, and the second part is around forty-three minutes long. You get it, I erred on the side of caution and created two episodes.Course, Podcasts, Books, and Tools MentionedCheck Out the Show Notes ⇢ https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/tap048/The previous Episode ⇢ https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/bts058/Books For Men Podcast ⇢ https://booksformen.org/Aristotle For Novelists ⇢ https://douglasvigliotti.com/aristotle-for-novelistsGot a burning question that you would love me to answer on the podcast ⇢ https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/question/Answers to Questions on Writing from Previous Shows ⇢ https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/question/faq/Products I RecommendScrivener ⇢ https://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener-affiliate.html?fpr=authorpreneurpod *Grammarly Premium ⇢ https://www.grammarly.com/Pro Writing Aid ⇢ https://prowritingaid.com/?afid=22911 *AutoCrit ⇢ https://www.autocrit.com/Marlow/Authors.ai ⇢ https://authors.ai/marlowe/?awref=rt2q4bq7zq *Fiverr ⇢ https://www.fiverr.com/DIVI Theme ⇢ https://www.elegantthemes.com/affiliates/idevaffiliate.php?id=66529 *Other Useful LinksLooking for an affordable premade book cover? | https://levillainbookcovers.com/shop/ **Be on the Podcast | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/podcast/interview/Host Your Author Website with SiteGround ⇢ https://www.siteground.com/go/authorSupport the showConnect with me on Social MediaDiscord: https://discord.gg/6pXHfz5KFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorpreneurpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorpreneurpodcast/X: https://twitter.com/writeradhayYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/authorpreneurpodcast/videosGoodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/authoradhay/Merch Store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/WriterADHay/shop* This is a service or product offered by me** My bookish merchandise store

"To save my world, I have to help Apocalypse destroy a past one." After four consecutive self-contained episodes, X-MEN wisely ramps up the pace and the tension directly at the season's mid-point with a high-octane two-parter. "Time Fugitives" goes big in all the right aways, logically bringing together the show's resident time travelers Bishop and Cable as their respective futures are placed in direct conflict. Also returning is arch-villain Apocalypse, who is immortalized as a true existential threat unlike any other our heroes have faced by his malignant presence in two of the three distinct timelines tracked across these episodes. With recurring season 2 foes the Friends of Humanity continuing to sow anti-mutant sentiment amongst the public, the script has its hands full juggling a plethora of characters within a dense plot. Nevertheless, with the aid of veteran comics and science fiction writer Elliot S. Maggin pitching in, alongside some clever animation reuse through the magic of time travel, the story makes good on its epic ambitions as a series stand-out and fan favorite. Cable in particular receives a welcome makeover following his introduction as a blank slate, stock badass/mercenary. It's confirmed from the jump that he's a time traveler, though this was probably best avoided in the first season given the proximity of his appearances to Bishop's arrival. Here, that redundancy is treated as a feature rather than a bug, with Bishop's successful efforts to create a better future threatening to unravel Cable's (even more distant) future. Time travel nonsense aside, it comes down to a classic moral dilemma wherein Cable must make the impossible choice between two horrible alternatives. Unlike our initial encounter with the character, this Cable is informed by an actual backstory and origin that the comics had finally settled on -- and all the better for it. Here we meet a world-weary soldier and hardened pragmatist by circumstance, but a principled man nonetheless. More importantly, this Cable is a dedicated leader and father, one who grapples with his conscience constantly in search of any way for his and Bishop's respective worlds to co-exist. Equally clever strategist that he is, Cable's solution is ingenious (and, true to form for this series, accidentally socially relevant over 30 years later). In a season defined by its focus on character development, this reinvention of Cable arguably outshines the high-concept action surrounding it. X-TRA: Though Apocalypse's genetically engineered plague is only referred to once as a "techno-virus," it's fitting that this line is spoken by Cable. When his parentage is ultimately confirmed in X-MEN '97, we learn that Cable is the child of Cyclops and Jean's clone, Madelyne Pryor. Notably, he is exposed to a virus by Mr. Sinister, with symptoms very much resembling (and that Beast even compares to) this very same plague. Sinister's variant is more lethal, prompting Madelyne to send the stricken infant into the future as his only hope of survival.

Listen to Fernando and Jay describe this powerful analogy and ask youself how you can use this system of thinking to balance all of the most important things in you life to make sure that they get the attention they deserve in the era they deserve it. All without pushing your life's song to the breaking point of undesirable clipping. Spoiler alert, if you manage your mix well, God will manage the master fader and help you turn up your life in 2025!
We interrupt our regular programming for the third of several periodic check-ins with the X-Men's exploits on the silver screen! This "show within a show" continues with the controversial and bombastic X-MEN: THE LAST STAND. Last stand... that means it's the last one, right? Right?? Oh, you sweet summer 2006 child. Jenny, Tim, and Keithie have some deep thoughts on this one, in ways that may be startling and unexpected. As quaint as it sounds by today's standards, the trilogy model represented a best-case scenario for any superhero film series in the early 2000s. Three movies was the mark of tremendous success for a genre considered radioactive less than a decade earlier, cementing the legacy of a property that managed to achieve this feat as a certified franchise and reliable money-maker. It also proved to be something of a double-edged sword in that the third entry typically represented the end of the line. Due to the reality of diminishing returns, changing tastes, and the complexities of reassembling an increasingly sprawling ensemble cast, conventional wisdom maintained that this was as far as a studio could realistically push it. Of course, cheaper spin-offs and derivative projects smaller in scope certainly remained in play to continue milking the franchise. But for all intents and purposes, it was three-and-done for the mainline, continuing narrative. Perhaps as a byproduct of the ballooning production and the pressure to turn out a respectable profit against a massively inflated budget, studio oversight tended to increase significantly for this supposed final outing -- arguably at the cost of quality control. In that respect, X-MEN: THE LAST STAND may as well be the poster child for the trilogy treatment kiss of death in blockbuster superhero filmmaking.

Welcome to Episode #50 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. The Houston Cougars are Final Four bound! UH is 34-4 and in the Final Four for a 7th time (tied for 10th all-time across all programs)! To make it to San Antonio, it took an exquisitely executed, last-second BLOB play against Purdue, followed by a blasting of Tennessee by 19 points in the Elite Eight. After two de facto road games, Houston now gets to reap the benefits of being able to make this final push in our backyard. The 3 Old Men recap the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 games, and break down the upcoming Duke game (as well as the potentially looming Auburn/Florida game for the National Championship). Please have a listen as the 3 Old Men weigh in and discuss the March Madness results. They also welcome Coach Matthew Mitchell, Houston WBB's huge new hire. - No Conference for Old Men is available for free via Spotify / Apple Podcast / SoundCloud & the GoCoogs.com website; we're also available via the Republic of Football Podcast feed from the folks at Dave Campbell's Texas Football as their only basketball-centric offering - Intro / Exit music: Ground Zero provided by FreeBeats.io - Please follow us on gocoogs.com/old-men/ Learn more about your ad choices.

"I don't care about which spirit ladies do what to which Cajuns, I'm here to stop a wedding." One of the gradual changes apparent in season two's more episodic format, with more zoomed-in, character-centric stories is the corresponding zoom-out on human-mutant relations as a unifying theme. That's not to say it's gone entirely by the wayside - domestic terrorist group the Friends of Humanity and President Kelly's unpopular newfound support for mutants were introduced as conflicts in the season premiere and continue to simmer in the background. The more globe-trotting adventures of subsequent episodes are less overtly concerned with these familiar social dynamics than with the exploration of character backstories, but they can still be read as having something to say about the issue, albeit through more of a geopolitical lens (i.e. the oppression or exploitation of mutants by the state, as dictated by wavering national interests). So while the societal angle might have ceased to be the driving force of every plot, it has managed to play some small part at least in all of this season's one-and-done installments. That is, until "X-Ternally Yours." Here we have the first episode of X-Men to be completely divorced from the social implications of mutants in the world at large. That's not necessarily to say the plot is worse off for it -- just that it is undeniably laden in backstory and melodrama. It's Gambit's turn to play protagonist, in a tale of star-crossed lovers with a little Cajun flair. There's perhaps an irony to be observed in the fact that the Thieves and Assassins, so caught up in their insular, centuries-old feud, fail to recognize how the existence of mutants could drastically shift the balance of power, absent the involvement of an ...external... benefactor. As it stands, both Guilds are completely indifferent to Gambit's status as a mutant, which could serve as a convincing motive for the Thieves in particular to bring him back into the fold. The episode has no time for that, however, as it must devote its runtime to establishing the stakes between these warring factions, the role of the tithing ceremony, contrivances to undermine said ceremony, Gambit's history with his jilted bride-to-be, and the X-Men doing their level best to untangle it all. Much of this is deeply silly, of which the script seems keenly aware as it gives Wolverine in particular some choice one-liners that threaten to invalidate the entire conflict. And yet, "X-Ternally Yours" manages to remain more charming than it is disposable by taking advantage of a fun setting and ratcheting up the soapy entertainment so intrinsic to some of the most memorable X-Men comics. Marvel was understandingly eager to capitalize on Gambit's growing popularity at this time as a new, breakout star character. Striking while the iron was hot, and in an effort to gauge the X-Man's potential as a solo headliner, an eponymous limited series was published that would provide much of the source material for "X-Ternally Yours." In another serendipitous example of cross-media symmetry, said series wound up being released concurrently with the episode's airing (issue #3 of 4 was a little over two weeks away from hitting stores and newsstands). As a standalone television episode, it is less successful than its comics counterpart in giving Gambit a mythology to call his own. That said, given Gambit's versability as a natural lead in any number of genres, from action, to adventure, to romance, to crime, it's curious why Marvel felt that such convoluted world-building was additive in the first place. Regardless, positioning Gambit as a spin-off character was less of a concern for the animated series. Factoring in the production timeline for comics versus that of animation, the show staff would've been working from incredibly early drafts and concept art. When taken as an adaptation of a story that had yet to even be told, it could've turned out a lot worse. X-TRA: Ghost Rider, who "appeared" as a brief mental image during Gambit's mind scan in "The Final Decision" (S1E12), regrettably does not factor into this blast from the past. Other than serving as one of the series many cameos inserted by director Larry Houston, character's significance to Gambit is presumably referencing an unlikely comics crossover: the team-up between Ghost Rider and the X-Men against parasitic aliens the Brood set in New Orleans! Spanning X-Men #8-9 and Ghost Rider #26-27 during the tail end of Jim Lee's tenure as X-Men co-plotter and artist in 1992, this story features the first appearance of Bella Donna Boudreaux and introduction of the Guilds, setting the stage for Gambit's 1993 limited series and its deep dive into the lore.
Welcome to Episode #49 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. The Houston Cougars are now 32-4 and back in the Sweet 16 for the sixth-straight year. UH destroyed SIUE and outlasted Gonzaga in a game that should've been in the Elite 8 round. Now it's into the Sweet 16 in Indianapolis, against four-seed Purdue, which has the ridiculous good fortune to play 70 miles from campus as the lower seed. But bring it on! As the 3 Old Men provide a recap of the Tourney games and break down the upcoming Purdue game (as well as the potential looming Tennessee/Kentucky game in the Elite 8).

"There's always a choice. You're the one who taught me that." After giving us a glimpse of Wolverine's past in "Red Dawn," the stage was set for a full-length exploration in our very next episode. And with that, season two continues its globe-trotting, introspective character-driven features with a solo outing centered on the enigmatic Canadian X-Man. Notably, the extended flashback at the center of "Repo Man" pulls directly from Barry Windsor-Smith's 1991 Marvel Comics Presents serial, "Weapon X." Violent and atmospheric, this adaptation can't help but suffer in comparison due to the necessity of reigning in the comic's harsher elements for Saturday morning consumption. Beyond that, "Weapon X" had a tenuous relationship with the canon from its inception, with the story calling its own authenticity into question at various points. Nevertheless, "Weapon X" was so well-received that it stood for years as the most definitive account of Wolverine's origin. Later revelations and retcons would muddy the waters, but at this point, the animated series is guided by a very solid pedigree. The inclusion of Alpha Flight, while appreciated from a world-building standpoint, doesn't do this episode many favors in terms of clarity. Outside of shedding some light on Wolverine's past, the plot is concerned with linking two seemingly disparate milestones in Logan's history: how his skeleton came to be laced with adamantium, and his involvement with Alpha Flight. The shadowy, unscrupulous, ultra-militaristic Department H serves as the connective tissue, leading to an ultimately unsatisfying conclusion. If Department H was behind or had knowledge of the Weapon X Project, as the episode suggests, then Logan escaped their clutches by the skin of his teeth, only to soon thereafter coincidentally meet James Hudson, who happens to be the leader of Canada's premiere superhero team, and is brought in to join Alpha Flight, under the purview of... Department H. It begs the question as to how Wolverine was allowed to leave the team in the first place. (To say nothing for the fact that he was given the codename of the project that "created" him, a detail which makes little sense as either another absurd coincidence or as an inside joke by Department H... for the audience's benefit only.) Department H's connection to Weapon X seems like it should come as a major revelation, at least to Logan, but the script doesn't attribute any particular significance to this. Still, it's hard to fault the show for filling in logic gaps that the comics themselves had yet to address, given the time and resources allotted. Wolverine's mysterious past represents a corner of X-Men lore that somehow always manages to be more interesting in theory than in execution. Every resolution offered comes with its own set of brand new questions, and in that sense, "Repo Man" can be considered faithful to the spirit of Wolverine's role throughout the '90s. As a cohesive story, it is ultimately unsatisfying, but almost manages to stick the landing by way of momentum and novelty. It remains to be seen how sustainable that approach will be going forward. X-TRA: This episode was written by Wolverine co-creator Len Wein, his first of four such credits over the course of the series. It's a curious fit, given that Wein chronicled only Wolverine's earliest appearances when the character was effectively a blank slate. He therefore has the unenviable task of cobbling together pieces of a mythology which he had no hand in establishing. It's an admirable effort, and a credit to the production for reaching outside their usual pool of television writers.

Welcome to Episode #42 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. Houston Basketball is 18-4 & 10-1 in The XII and still tied for first in the conference. UH lost this week in OT to Texas Tech at home in a strange game with a double ejection less than 5 minutes into the game. Despite losing Emanuel Sharp and Ja'Vier Francis, the Coog turned around with a "win and move on" triumph over an improved Oklahoma State team. There is no rest for the weary, as Houston will continue to be tested this week with a visit to Colorado followed by a quick turnaround for a Big Monday showdown with heated rival Baylor at home. The Three Old Men review the two games played and preview the upcoming games this week. We also respond to the many Cougar fans that are "freaking out" after the loss at home to Tech. - No Conference for Old Men is available for free via Spotify / Apple Podcast / SoundCloud & the GoCoogs.com website; we're also available via the Republic of Football Podcast feed from the folks at Dave Campbell's Texas Football as their only basketball-centric offering - Intro / Exit music: Ground Zero provided by FreeBeats.io - Please follow us on gocoogs.com/old-men/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Episode #41 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast from GoCoogs.com. The Houston Cougars are now 17-3 & 9-0 in the Big XII after beating Kansas at the Phog in what many college hoops pundits have called "the best game of the season."

Welcome to Episode #37 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. Apologies, but some slight technical challenges faced by one of the old men impacted part of the game preview segment (we'll let you guess who that was). The Houston Cougars are now 9-3 after smothering Oklahoma St in their XII opener. UH now hits their first Saturday/Big Monday turnaround in week two of Conference play, facing BYU and then TCU. These almost back-to-back games in the Big 12 are a particular grind for all teams involved. So the Old Men preview the games but will then pivot to tackle this week's question: what conference record does UH need to win the Big 12?

"I do not yearn for an easy life, Magneto. Only a just one." These third and fourth installments of X-MEN: THE ANIMATED SERIES' second season are representative of a revised story structure, adopted at the behest of the Fox Kids executives. Gone is the single, unbroken heavily serialized narrative approach of the first season, wherein episodes that weren't explicitly identified as multi-partners still ended in cliffhangers and flowed directly into the next adventure. This was especially pronounced in the midseason, when animation errors forced delays and the airing of episodes out of script order. Fox understandably wanted to avoid such problems by having the freedom to air episodes as they became available, rather than in a strict sequence. Their edict called for more one-and-one episodes and fewer multi-part stories in general. Knowing that the show's loyal fanbase had certain expectations of an elevated presentation for a Saturday morning cartoon, showrunner Eric LeWald and the production staff came up with an ingenious workaround. Professor Xavier and Magneto's diversion in the Savage Land was conceived as a single episode, to be animated all at once, but written in such a way that it could be easily edited and inserted as segments in other episodes, and therefore serialized across the entire season. These interstitial cutaway scenes did not have to adhere to a rigid order, as long as they generally conveyed the pair being continuously imperiled in some way while narrowly escaping with their lives. Thus, the network's demands were fulfilled while still allowing for a season-long "wraparound" storyline. Without meaning to, this would be one of the ways the series was brought into closer alignment with the subplot-heavy nature of the contemporary comics. In particular, "Whatever It Takes" serves as the first episode to feature distinct A, B, and C-plots for the series. Storm and Rogue's tussle with the Shadow King takes center stage, but Wolverine's solo outing provides a follow-up to the loose end of Morph's return, while drawing a line under his status (for now). Finally, as something akin to a back-up strip in comics, Professor X and Magneto send the episode out by finding themselves in a new, exotic setting and establishing their pattern for the season. Even if nothing critically important is happening, the rapid-fire pace and juggling of plots makes for an easy, immersive watch. With more episodic, single installment A-plots doing the heavy lifting in season two, X-MEN's creative team uses this as an opportunity to explore the cast in greater depth. The result is a round of rotating character spotlights, once again drawing heavily upon the lore of then-recent comics. Whereas the season opening explored Scott and Jean's background with the revelation of Mr. Sinister as a presence menacing them from behind the scenes since childhood, Storm and returning guest star Colossus would receive similar treatment in "Whatever It Takes" and "Red Dawn," respectively. Flashbacks are employed generously to show, if not outright origin tales, pivotal moments from these characters' pasts. Wolverine, Gambit, Rogue, and Beast will each get their turn at such character-centered episodes over the course of the season. This exemplifies an evolution of the show's mission, from successfully selling the X-Men collectively as a fighting team to endearing the young broadcast audience ever more to its individual members. When talking to X-Men loyalists of a certain age to this day, there's a reason why they point to the animated series -- and, whether or not they recall the exact details, this run of episodes -- as the common denominator that made them fans of the characters for life. X-TRA: In more comics-related synergy, issues on sale in the month of these episode airings feature Scott and Jean getting engaged. Their nuptials would go a bit smoother in print than the version seen on screen. Conversely, Colossus receives much kinder treatment in animated form. His second appearance in "Red Dawn" comes just a few months after the longtime X-Man joined Magneto's Acolytes, itself the culmination of a series of personal blows in which Colossus lost his brother, parents, and sister in short order. One such tragedy also involved a confrontation with Omega Red in only his second comics story.
Welcome to Episode #35 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast. Our Houston Cougars are 6-3 after a tough week of practice post-Vegas trip, with two thorough destructions of Butler in the XII/Big East Challenge and Troy. A Toledo team is up next, but the question of the week is, "Is this iteration of the Houston Cougars Men's Basketball team still a legitimate National Title Contender 6 weeks into the season?” This question was posed because of the slew of social media postings this week stating that every National Champion since 2004 has been in the top 12 of the week 6 AP Poll. Please listen as the 3 Old Men weigh in and discuss the merits of this stat and provide some quick-hit game summaries and previews. - No Conference for Old Men is available via Spotify / Apple Podcast / SoundCloud & the GoCoogs.com website; we're also available via the Republic of Football Podcast feed from the folks at Dave Campbell's Texas Football as their only basketball-centric offering. - Intro / Exit music: Ground Zero provided by FreeBeats.io - Please follow us on gocoogs.com/old-men/ and x.com/NoConfForOldMen Learn more about your ad choices.

"Whatever happened, you're still part of the team! You're still one of the X-Men!" Much like the comics from which X-Men: The Animated Series drew so much of its inspiration, season 2 would immediately see the show begin to double down on its history and build out an ever-expanding mythology. No longer obligated to present stories at an entry level, the show took full advantage of its serialized format to springboard plots off the backs of its own previous plots. To that end, season 2 opens with a bombshell: the return of Morph, long thought dead since the events of the series' opening two-parter. This came as a shocking and satisfying twist, rewarding loyal viewers for their continued interest. And if it came at the cost of invalidating the show's edgiest, most ground-breaking moment? So what! This was comics, after all, or at least comics-on-Saturday-morning. Further to that, Morph had proven to be an unexpected fan favorite based on initial impressions, so a reversal of fortune was arguably worth it not merely for a big reveal, but to offer a path back to semi-regular appearances for the character. The revolving door of death would be one of the many ways the show was brought more into alignment with the tropes of the comics. More direct echoes could be traced in the form of Scott and Jean's wedding, which would occur in the comics a mere four months later. Likewise, new anti-mutant antagonist Graydon Creed and his homegrown militia, the Friends of Humanity, had made their print debuts a little over six months prior to the airing of "Till Death," part 1. Henchmen the Nasty Boys are utilized prominently beginning in part 2 and throughout the season, despite having appeared in exactly one comics storyline from 1992 (and in lieu of an older and more infamous group that preceded them in the Marauders). All this, with little in the way of reintroductions to our principal cast. From a critical standpoint, this approach for a season premiere might politely be described as "inaccessible" to say the least. Owing to many of these changes was no doubt the arrival of X-Men line editor Bob Harras in an official capacity as Story Consultant. To Harras, inaccessibility was a feature far more than a bug. During his tenure overseeing the X-office at the height of the speculator era, the more tangled, sprawling, and convoluted the storytelling, the better. For the industry's many eager young collectors, the complex nature of the X-Men's history, combined with the present-day storylines whose conclusions typically offered more questions than answers, there was a desperate need to Make It All Make Sense. Helping Jenny and Tim to Make It All Make Sense on this installment of X-Position is Keithie, not unlike Beast, joining the episode in progress. All told, this two-parter delivers a satisfying, intricately-plotted opening salvo that will be representative of the season as a whole. Thematically, the story makes excellent use of deception as a recurring motif. From Wolverine's brawl with a robotic duplicate of Cyclops, to the mutant-impersonating crisis actor disrupting President Kelly's inauguration, Graydon Creed's subsequent manipulation of the media, and right down to Morph's duplicitous divide-and-conquer scheme to use the X-Men to undo the X-Men, truly nothing is as it seems. And that's to say nothing of Morph's return from a seemingly certain death. It's fitting, then, that standing atop all of this subterfuge is the riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma known as Mr. Sinister. His presence will loom large throughout the series following this maleficent animated debut. To its credit, the script makes effective and logical use of Sinister as Morph's corrupting benefactor, and even manages to flesh out his ultimate motives more decisively over the course of 22 minutes than 6-plus years worth of comics appearances had managed. Though taking its cues ever more from the comics, this stands as an example of the finite nature of the animated series imposing a storytelling discipline that occasionally outshined its source material.

Before delving into the second season of X-Men: The Animated Series, our periodic explorations of the X-Men on film continues with another special episode! Up next for the burgeoning 20th Century Fox franchise is fan-favorite sequel X2: X-MEN UNITED. Jenny and Tim are joined by Keith Langston for a retrospective on the 2003 summer spectacular that in many respects established the template for big budget superhero blockbusters. As a paltry $75 million production, 2000's X-MEN was very much a story of managed expectations. However, by achieving the rare hat trick for a comic book movie of being faithful to the source material, receiving critical acclaim, and (more importantly) making money, a sequel was all but assured. Time had only been kind to the principal players: director Bryan Singer saw his stock rise considerably on the back of the film's success, and Hugh Jackman's performance as Wolverine proved to be a star-making role. Halle Berry, meanwhile, had since gone on to win a historic Academy Award for Best Actress in 2002. Producer Lauren Shuler-Donner cemented her reputation as a hitmaker, and was rewarded with a vastly increased budget to do the same - but more! - with X2: X-MEN UNITED. Suffice to say, everything is a little more polished this time around. The costumes, the props, the make-up, the sets, the effects, and particularly the action, are all a cut above X-MEN's modest trappings. X2's set pieces are grand and memorable individually, in ways its predecessor's are not. And while the fight choreography stands out for its jarring and dated generous use of "wire-fu," this was very much in keeping with the style at the time. Other early 2000s aesthetics threaten to date the film, but instead have a grounding effect - anchoring the fantastic elements in a reality that feels tangible and familiar. From Bobby Drake's domestic troubles to Jean's unfortunate triangle hair, it feels like these charactergs and conflicts occupy the world outside your window (or at least that of 2003). The overall result is incredibly important and effective in selling the metaphor of mutants as a real-world persecuted minority. All told, it's tempting to look back on X2 and call the film dated. A fallacy that implies it has aged badly. On the contrary, X2 simply remains both as good and as bad as it ever was. What stands out as glaringly messy today - in terms of plot, characters, and pacing - didn't work in 2003 either. But what the picture gets right - the cast, the performances, the effects and action scenes - still holds up remarkably well. Though once considered the gold standard in superhero filmmaking, the reality is that X2 has always been characterized by high peaks and low valleys. It's to no great shock that it has since been surpassed in prestige by subsequent efforts; after all, X2 is competing with another 21(!) years worth of genre films. Uneven though the movie may be, X2's reputation isn't sustained merely on the strength of nostalgia. It truly cashes in on the inherent, restrained potential of the first film, taking the franchise to new heights. In that sense, it can be said that X-MEN walked so X2 could fly.
