Strap yourselves in, fellow geeks, as Dakota and Anthony commemorate their 77th episode of Project Geekology with a rousing throwback to the game-changing "X-Men" movie from 2000. We're not just talking about Hugh Jackman's claws and charisma as Wolverine; we delve into the film's monumental impact on the superhero genre and our own geeky paths. Our nostalgia doesn't end there, though—we also tip our hats to "Blade," the unsung hero that blazed the trail before "X-Men," and then pivot to our fresh take on Amazon Prime's Fallout series. Trust us, we're just getting started on unpacking the treasure chest of hidden gems like the remastered "Star Ocean" and anticipating the animated continuation in "X-Men '97."
Change gears with us as we geek out over the binge-worthy nature of the Fallout series, debating the pros and cons of Amazon's full-season drop compared to the weekly episode buzz that keeps us talking. Anthony shares his strategy for stretching out the Fallout goodness, while we also shine a light on the overlooked "Star Ocean" in a galaxy dominated by JRPG giants. Then, it's back to the future—or is it the past?—as we revel in the seamless link between the beloved '90s animated series and the upcoming "X-Men '97."
The episode wraps with a heartfelt reflection on the profound societal and cinematic contributions of the "X-Men" films, which resonate with themes of diversity and struggle. We honor Jackman's legacy as Wolverine, mull over the influence of the ensemble cast, and consider the anticipation for mutants' leap into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. As we look forward to Deadpool's return and Wolverine slashing his way into the MCU, we celebrate the enduring legacy of the "X-Men" and their role in sculpting the superhero landscape. So come for the geekery, stay for the camaraderie—it's all here in this episode of Project Geekology.
