Are either of these watchable?

>>94637400
Only X-Men holds up now.

I've been watching X-Men on Hulu for the last week. Haven't seen it since it first aired on TV. It's almost unwatchable, really terrible.

X-Men is kind of ok. Spidey is literally unwatchable. I don't know how I enjoyed it as a kid.

I get that these shows were animated overseas (like everything else) and were made on the cheap but why are they so off?

They seem like they're made by aliens who are basing them on a description of how human beings act.

>>94637400
Yes. However, keep in mind wolverine may as well be comic relief in this show

>>94637400
Spiderman is insane

I think they animated the show on crack and ran episodes at 125% speed.

Eh.
I liked em.
Some of the performances were good.
Some not so good.

I like em. Mark Hamill as HobGoblin was the best.

Watch the crossover

The 90's Spider-Man TV was pretty good. It's obvious where they had to play it safe because of the kid audience, and there was no animation budget at all, so it's not too great. Like, there's this one time that they reused a clip of Peter rescuing Harry for a completely different character, but you can still see it's Harry.

Still, it's one of the few times they show Pete being a genius college student, sporting the physique they said he had in the comics and actually using [Science] to fight his rogue's gallery. It's interesting, engaging, and just cheesy enough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMk-HPBF6Mw There was also plenty of crossovers, so you got a sense this was Marvel's New York, not just a self contained series. All in all, it was pretty noice, and they got Joe Perry to do the theme. If Spectacular Spider-Man is the best version of High School Peter, the 90's series is the best version of Adult Pete.

>>94637400
Yeah, great cartoons

They're really aged but still watchable

That's a pretty good summarization of Spider-Man: TAS. I also made an emphasis on how great it was despite its obvious limitations in animation and stated the main reasons why it worked (John Semper Jr's understanding of the story and character psychology - I even included his "A Profile of Peter Parker" link http://drg4.dancemania-ex.com/peterparker.html, sort of like a character study guide, a blend of different eras of Spidey comics, interesting visual style that borrows elements from McFarlane and other artists, unusual turning points within each season, beautiful score by Udi Harpaz and so much more) in my latest video (I added the timeline where my discussion of TAS starts, I first discovered the show when I was 5 years old): https://youtu.be/2ILCTco-9vo?t=10m41s + https://youtu.be/2ILCTco-9vo?t=13m44s

They aged but are still great if you can't get past it. I just quit and started watching Xmen evolution.

They aren't without merit, but they haven't aged gracefully, either. Apocalypse is still great.

Apocalypse was one of the dumbest villains they had.

"Alright, after 5000 years of life, I have 4 random guys that I brainwashed last night with kind of shitty unspecified powers. I didn't really choose all of them, they more or less came to me so I took what I could get, but whatever. They have robot dog horse things, so they're good! Time to take over the world!"

recently rewatched X-men. Still love it. Great characterizations
