    What an ending!

    CAMEOS: Cap, Iron Man, T’Chaka, Dr Strange, Psylocke, Alpha Flight, Peter and MJ, Daredevil, Cloak and Dagger, Silver Samurai, Omega Red, Crimson Dynamo, Darkstar, Mr Fantastic (Morph). I probably missed some but that’s what I could remember

    CRITICISMS: Rogue seemed to make up with everyone a little too easily, but I guess seeing Magneto rip out Logan’s Adamantium will do that. Phoenix was a cheap get out of jail free card, especially considering it just kind of disappeared after it freed the X-Men

    HIGHLIGHTS: All the Blue team members individually beating down Bastion. Rogue: “HIS NAME WAS GAMBIT! REMEMBER IT!” The sentinel Trojan horse with gold team. The goodbye between Nathan and Scott/Jean. “I should have been in those stories!” “You were.” Mother Askani! We are going to get to see Scott and Jean raise Nathan!

    And the post credits scene! We are definitely getting Gambit as Death!

    This is easily one of the best things Marvel has done. A total nostalgia trip loaded with fan service for all us 90s kids. It stayed true to the original while becoming more mature at the same time. All the praise to Beau DeMayo. Whatever he did to get fired must have been bad, because this was an excellent product and it will be a shame to lose him.
