Generation X (1996) Part 9

Made-for-TV FOX movie (originally the pilot for a series) featuring the Marvel Comics team Generation X. It's sorta horrible. I love it.

Their studies are interrupted when they must rescue one of their number from a mad scientist who can enter others' dreams.

He... wants to circumcise him?

What the fuck?!

Yeah, it is a terribly great film. If this had come out today with the right writers and effects, it would be a power house. I loved this when I was a kid. I wish they had made it into a show because I love all the references to the X-Men universe. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for uploading this. Was quite amusing in the beginning how Matt eluded to it being similar to Nightmare on Elms Street and then continued to mimic Freddy throughout the movie. I wonder if an alternate title was " A Nightmare on Graymalkin Lane. "

He's like a demented Jim Carrey!

Thanks for posting this. I was working nights at the time it aired so missed it. It's too bad that Marvel wasn't practicing any kind of quality control at the time 'cause this could have made a good series if the pilot had been better. One thing we have to keep in mind though is that this is probably a VHS copy on very long play which makes the quality seem even lower than it actually was.

Jim Carrey should be paying this guy royalties for stealing his acting style.

Because Prof X isnt around anymore when Emma takes over.

Why was Professor X nowhere in this cuz we all no it'd be so hard to cast a bald white guy in a wheelchair O_o
