Wolverine and the X-Men Trailer
Published 5/7/2008 by slashfilm.com at /Film
One thing is for sure, Marvel is on a roll - The new X-Men animated series doesn’t look half bad. Check out the new trailer below. Wolverine and the X-Men begins as an explosive event shatters the lives of the X-Men and takes away their mentor, Professor X. The beaten heroes, including Beast, Storm, Cyclops and Nightcrawler, walk away from it all but then they are given a rare glimpse into the future, where they see a world in utter ruin…ruled by giant destructive robots. They discover the world has spiraled out of control because the X-Men have given up. So now the most legendary ...

Wolverine and the X-Men Cartoon Is an Exercise in Fan Wankery
Published 5/7/2008 by Rob Bricken at Topless Robot
I said some pretty harsh stuff about Wolverine and the X-Men when it was first announced, mainly because I hate when Wolverine gets put in charge, because it's obvious that it's because he's popular, and not because of any kind of storytelling. Well, I still hate that (the animators do attempt a cop-out by having Professor X's ghost demand Wolverine take charge to avoid a dark future), but it seems everything else in this trailer looks good. There's Emma Frost, Kitty Pride, Cyclops and no Jean Grey (which is about the only time he's interesting), Sentinels, Domino, Mojo, Gambit—shit, it's like ...

If you were a tape trader back in the day, you could get blocks of episodes recorded onto VHS. The thing to do with one of these prizes would be to spring this series on unsuspecting viewers. It started off as a slightly odd domestic comedy concerning a five year old, who for some reason sounded like an old man when he spoke. Then, invariably, this precociously vulgar ...

A New Animated X-Men Series - Wolverine and The X-Men [Officially Cool]
Published 6/26/2008 by Brian C. Gibson at Film School Rejects
I just want to know, how did I f*cking miss this? I loved the X-Men animated series. I’m one of the names on the internet petition to bring that series to DVD. It looks like Marvel will be bringing us round two of The X-Men animated on the small screen. I am a firm believer that you can never have too much X-Men, unless Brett Ratner is involved. It is also really cool that Marvel is just manning up and calling the group what it has actually become. Wolverine and The X-Men is scheduled to be hitting Nicktoons sometime in early 2009. I am sure we will get some more details when we go to San Diego Comic-Con, as Marvel will ...
