Marvel/FX's Legion (TV series)

[The Lonious Monk]

It's definitely straight forward. He's on a greater tier than Jean and Charles and runs with a team of mutants fighting for their kind. His psyche is also under attack. It actually feels a lot like a live action New Mutants comic.

Well, I think that's oversimplifying things. Up to this point the show has been more centered around figuring out what's wrong with David than a team of superheroes fighting for a cause. As a matter of fact, we've learned that the lead chick's primary reason for recruiting him wasn't even because he'd be a powerful teammate. It's more because she believes he can bring her husband back. So it's not that straightforward, but it's not excessively convoluted either.

Well I was trying my best not to further confuse people. Really dope that the show explores the astral plane btw. Been wanting to see that in the X-Men movie universe for years.

Jermaine Clement talking about beat poetry, sitting in an ice house, whilst on the astral plane is one of the highlights of the year to me.

I'd watch that show all day long.

It really started to pick up with the last episode.

Probably because one of his personalities (or the parasite)........the fat baldhead guy........took over.

Not sure if the show is gonna be completely true to the comics, but it seems like they're portraying the fat dude as a parasite instead of a personality.

That old man in division told his girl "Beware, he wears a human face."

So it was probably him that was smashing her in that dreamland or wherever that was.

Probably the Shadow King. He can jump from host to host. If it is SK, he may have been inhabiting Bird's husband

It is Shadow King

He hadn't been confirmed when I made those posts.

We should be getting answers tonight.

 

[MontyM.Max]

Niggas really ain't fucking with this shit? I think it's getting better every episode.

Plenty of us here that like this shit. Gonna see if I catch up with tonight's episode now since I didn't get to see it live.

 

[Broddie]

First X-Men movie cameo of the show: One of the wheels on Charles' wheelchair.

 

[Broddie]

Jemaine Clement's Oliver Bird is such a brilliant character. Great addition to the X-Men universe.

 

[Broddie]

Audrey Plaza got nothing from her bori genes. Noassatall.

 

[iron man1]

Best episode to me

 

[OmegaConflict]

Isn't The shadow king and Mr. Sinister the same person?

 

[Broddie]

No.

 

[jaxn]

Isn't The shadow king and Mr. Sinister the same person?

Nah, Sinister is an Apocalypse subordinate with an obsession with the summers and greys

 

[Broddie]

That ending just left me saying: "Oh C'Mon!!!"

 

[loch121]
