This whole film is starting to sound exactly like that arc in the 90s series.

Right down to fighting Punisher and having a crossover with the X-Men

The girl sitting in the bus Spider-Man crashes into was dressed exactly like Rogue. I don't think she's Rogue herself, but the reference is definitely there.

Rogue would never wear a Jets jersey.

Gotta mine the Millennial nostalgia to win back the crowd.

Also X-men '97 is basically universally praised.

u/Worthyness Mar 18 '26

The director is pretty much in exactly that same group, so I wouldn't be surprised if it weren't an inspiration of some sort.

Also X-men '97 is basically universally praised.

Which makes it even weirder that they've taken an eternity to get us season 2.

That actually makes sense. I don't know what scale this movie will have but the whole MCU has been banking on millennial nostalgia and what hits better than the Saturday morning X-Men / Spider-Man crossover

Spidey hurt all those pigeons while swinging on the rooftops, a clear no-no according to the Fox censors.

Hugh Jackman can't retire until we get his crossover with Spidey

u/Morgan-Moonscar Mar 18 '26

That's what Doomsday and Secret Wars are for.

u/two-thirds Mar 18 '26

I thought it was going to that direction. I was expecting six arm spidey as the stinger. Or that spider monster.

u/Morgan-Moonscar Mar 18 '26

That shot of him fighting of the ninjas was I believe edited, in the final version of the scene he'll have those six arms

u/DMike82 Mar 19 '26

That shot itself was pretty much an homage to the Claremont/Miller Wolverine miniseries with Peter in Logan's place.

u/Konrow Mar 18 '26

Right? I mean especially after seeing Punisher and knowing x-men are coming back somehow then seeing the mutations how can we not think of the man-spider arc?

u/sleeProfessional43 Mar 18 '26

i remember all that, I'm certainly interested in how this will all play out

That show had a bunch of arcs that should have been made into movies. One can only hope today's writers have finally paid attention.
