Revival/Continuation Coming to Disney+ In 2023


https://www.marvel.com/articles/tv-shows/x-men-97-animated-disney-plus

Bringing back most of the original voice cast as well.

Would be nice if they brought back Spider-Man '94 as well but I'll take what I can get.

Since Norm Spencer (Cyclops) recently passed away, they unfortunately, will have to get a new voice actor for his character. And I think that it's pretty safe to assume that it wouldn't be in the best interest anymore to have Alyson Court continue to voice Jubliee being that she's a white woman voicing an Asian character.

That's one of the most asinine things I've ever read.

Today's culture of erasing meritocracy in favor of racial conceit disgusts me to no end.

reply

How exactly is what I wrote asinine for merely pointing out that based on recent history, it wouldn't be so likely that somebody like Alyson Court would get away with voicing a character like Jubilee today enough some sort of blowback by the supposed "woke"/politically correct/SJW crowd. I put those links below to make people aware that I'm not just saying that just because.

Alyson Court herself, has made note of this:

Sorry for being so truculent.

If the actress herself has completely given in to the racist mob in favor of ruining continuity for the sake of virtue signaling, then it's a hard pass from me.

I didn't even know Jubilee was supposed to be Asian in the original cartoon. It wasn't even something I thought about. I suppose colorblindness in the 1990s is considered evil according to today's standards.

reply

Yet you got upset when Mileena was race swapped in the new mortal kombat film. Hypocritical.

reply

Jubilee wasn't race-swapped, ace.

reply

Apparently she was considering she was asian in the cartoon and voiced by a white lady in the cartoon ace. Where is your outrage?

reply

When you can show where Jubilee as a character was race-swapped in the cartoon, you would have a semblance of a point. Until then, what you have constructed is a strawman.

reply

I just did. She was Asian in the cartoon but was voiced by a white woman. That is my proof ace. If that is the game you want to play I can play as well. Mileena was played by a black woman but in the end her race was never stated in the film. So which is it? Are you upset that the person portraying them is not the ethnicity, or are you upset that the they get officially race swapped in the story?

reply

voiced by a white woman.


voiced


When you learn what the difference is between race-swapping and voice-acting, get back with me.

reply

Except you said that it not being in the best interest of having the original voice actress voice her anymore was asinine to you. This shows you got enraged about a voice swap. So you contradicted yourself again ace.
