S14 Ep751: X-Men (with Jamelle Bouie)

“They always have to act like they’ve been through a civil rights march for nudity” - Chris on creepy movie guys

On this week’s episode, the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza goes to Comic Book Town as we welcome back our good bud, New York Times columnist, Jamelle Bouie to chat about a real landmark motion picture, 2000’s X-Men! How fantastic is it that the movie creates this entire world of mutants and what the state of things are and still runs under two hours? Has there been a better cast pairing than Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen? Why did they need to include D-level mutant, Toad? Is Xavier charging these students for all that school merch? What’s up with the X-Men refusing to install railings in the Cerebro chamber? And isn't it wild how great can these movies be when the creators have respect for the intelligence of the audience? PLUS: Eric Szyszka? Turned into a mutant thanks to Magneto’s Magic Mutant Machine!

X-Men stars Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman, Famke Janssen, James Marsden, Halle Berry, Anna Paquin, Tyler Mane, Ray Park, Rebecca Romijn, and Bruce Davison as Senator Kelly; directed by noted sack of crap, Bryan Singer.
