6.6 | G | en | Animation

Pryde of the X-Men was a short-lived series about the X-Men, with the main character being Kitty Pryde (whose alias is Shadow Cat, though she never becomes Shadow Cat in the series), which is why the series is titled Pryde of the X-Men. The show was produced by Marvel Productions and Sunbow Productions, who made a pilot for NBC. The pilot aired, but for unknown reasons, it was never turned into a full-blown series. Despite it not becoming a full series, the pilot has aired in syndication, and was later released on video.

Platypuschow I remember loving the X-Men television show as a kid, this though not technically part of it certainly seems to have been made by the same people.A 1989 short film about the origins of Kitty Pryde it features all your favourite X-Men and villains but made me feel a little silly actually watching it.Part of me questions whether I'm remembering the old television series with ruby glasses or if this was just part of the shows evolution and not on the same level.Wolverine stands out as a particularly bad character, they clearly hadn't read the comics as he is by far the least likable and most annoying part of this short.In establishing Kitty Pryde (Who was never part of the television series) they don't do the character any favours but how possibly could you with a character so limited.I'd suggest even fans of the original series give this one a pass.The Good: Nostalgia The Bad: Wolverines voice is hilariously bad A lot of changes from the comics Things I Learnt From This Short: The original X-Men series might not have been as good as I remember I don't remember a dragon Wolverine is a deeply annoying Australian
Dougie B Why does everyone seem to hate this? Sure, the story was 100% generic, but it was definitely watchable. While the Saban cartoon that followed it around four years later was much more complex story-wise, its animation couldn't hold a candle to this one. If they were somehow able to combine this cartoon's animation with the stories of the show that came after this, we would have had a GREAT series.
Astro_silver i bought this before the movie came out it wasn't so good i mean what do you want from old 20$ cartoon one shot? Well at least the x-men movie was great
sabrositopapito Well...although I like the animation the movie itself was very basic, I mean, what did this 25 minute cartoon represent. I would have liked it if more there where more episodes like the 92 - 98 fox cartoon series (adventures of.). But this is only a 25-minute cartoon, that's all, they're just showing the beginning of a group that has no future, they present all of the characters, they save the world in 3 minutes and then comes the end. The X-Men IS the best comic book title marvel has ever produced, they deserve better that this introduction tape. Just imagine how could the X-Men TV adventures would be like with the Pride of the X-Men's animation with fox's own cartoon series plot line and voice overs...wouldn't you wanna sit down every Saturday morning and watch it. By the way, why did they called it Pryde of the X-Men anyway...Why did they do this cartoon anyway? The funny thing is that I rated it with an 8...animation ruled!
