[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 9301708, member: 5889"] Episode 3 came out, and unfortunately it felt much weaker than the first two. I think its cool they went with the Madeline Pryor storyline, but it felt really rushed and forced: [LIST] [*]Beast just dropping the bomb right in front of her, and seemed genuinely confused why the clone would react so harshly to the news. Like damn man, bedside manner much? [*]Her whole transformation into the Goblin Queen was straight out of Sailor Moon. Like seriously weird. And Goblin Queen? Sure that is the name in the comics but there is absolutely no context where that name came from. She could have called herself the yellow zephyr noodle and it would have made as much sense. [*]Cyclops just had zero reaction at first to the news. I think they were going for stunned, but again they just didn't give time to let the scene breathe, just so crazy rushed. [*]I get that the Xmen have seen crazy things in their time....but they literally just found out the woman they have been hanging out with possibly for years is a clone, and the original might have been locked away in a lab somewhere for years. Yet they all go about their day like literally nothing has happened. They could be checking in on old jean, new jean, heck talking about their feelings about the whole thing. Not just regular old danger room stuff and tv watching. [*]Ok Nathan has the techno-organic virus.....you mean the same one that wolverine got infected with a while back, made anti-bodies for, and has been studied somewhere for at least a year or two? I recognize that for one reason or another maybe that won't help Nathan but at least mention the idea before you go hurtling your baby into the future. I get that we got to get Nathan into the future so he can become Cable, but its just so ham-fisted. [*]And then the name Madeline Pryor. Again comic accurate....but just completely out of no-where in the context of the show itself. Could have called herself Englebert Humberdink and would have been just as random. [/LIST] This really should have been a least a two-parter, and given some time for a bit more explanation and a chance to let the characters actually react to this intense situation. [/QUOTE]
