X-Men '97 (2024)
Not just Nostalgia- but actual quality.
Seeing Xmen 97 produce strong original diverse characters without changing the source material, great dialogue and intense musical scores, detailed high framerate motion for even minor scenes- suddenly it's like waking from a silent nightmare that had been the gradual reduction in quality of animated comic book adaptations in the past 2 decades. Comparing it to other current releases is like night and day.
It's almost a shame that they've had to borrow from a franchise nearly 3 decades old in order to justify simply producing quality content.
This is the greatest superhero animated adaptation in years, and deserves recognition for it. This could be Marvel's Mandalorian moment- finally getting someone in the drivers seat who knows what they're doing.
