Summary: Better Formatting
Review: I enjoyed this DVD release, but I wanted to see this saga in a movie format. The DVD is divided into episodes, which drew my attentions slightly away from the action. Because of the format, I am giving X-men the animated series 4 stars.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pheonix saga rules
Review: I love this movie. The dark pheonix saga rules. Contrary to what amazon.com says, It is actually the regular pheonix saga that is being released on dvd. I loved both pheonix sagas, so it is still good. I can't wait for this dvd. Hopefully it will have some cool extra features.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What's Up Doc?
Review: I use those words because when I SAW this for the first time, I actually taped it all, then saw that the story and animation were very cheesy and played out more like a daytime soap opera,so I erased all five shows with recording of various Bugs Bunny cartoons, and say that you would be better off waiting for Warner Brothers to release the LOONEY TUNES CARTOONS ON DVD INSTEAD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: X-men forever!!!
Review: I watched the complete serie a long time ago and I completelly felt in love with it.It was so cool to see so many mutants with aweson costumes and fantastic powers.Although the serie is kind of old and the animetion is of low quality compared to the new version now on WB.But the creators made an excelent job by putting several characters from the comic book in the serie.The plot was very interesting too.From the complete serie the one that impressed me the most got to be the Phoenix saga.This part of the serie has everything it takes to make it excelent.They forgot to put many important details from the comic book in this saga but it didn't affected the story at all.I recomend this video to people who really like the x-men and comics.It is an excelent option for people who hadn't read all the comic books.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Phoenix Saga rocks, but...
Review: Im glad they are starting to release DVD versions of Xmen. One problem though, why havnt they just released the seasons rather then just episodes here and there. Ive been a fan of the xmen for quite a while now.. to figure out that they should have entire seasons on dvd. Anyways if u never seen the original xmen series get this dvd. Its really cool.

Summary: the x-men rule
Review: my obsession with the xmen came about in junior high and has not stopped yet. the animated series is my favorite cartoon ever, and the fact there are some episodes out on dvd makes me very happy. i was not even aware that there were some dvds available until i did a random search. i think i am lucky though cause now they all say out of stock. back to the dvd. the phoenix saga is one of the best story arcs they did on the cartoon. my favorite thing in the world is to see the mutants use their powers and in this five episode dvd you really get to see mutants at their best. it would even be better if they put the dark phoenix saga out as well to finish the story. but since this is the only one out right now it will have to do, but i cant complain. i suggest getting this dvd if possible b/c it really is worth the money. any x-men buff should have this dvd or try to get it because it is part of x-men history and is a very important part of the x-men's evolution. ----and to any one who cares please put out more of this cartoon out on dvd, there is still an audience for it and there are a whole lot of us who grew up while the cartoon was on---- so i highly recommend this dvd and will hope and pray that more will follow it in the future.

Summary: Feared and Hated By A World They're Sworn to Protect
Review: Some of the best stuff from Marvel's 1992-1998 X-Men series. I highly reccomend this to any sci-fi, comic book, or animation fan. The animation, writing, and voicework is some of the series' best, right up there with the "Beyond Good and Evil" four-parter and the series finale "Graduation Day." Buy it, or Magneto will tear your house down.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Worth getting for X Men fans
Review: The 1st thing you notice is that the transfer is beautiful. The colors are intense and the images are crisp. I saw this originally when broadcasted on TV and it doesn't come close.

The story is a bit long winded but it is nice to see Jean Gray doing something for a change.

The animation style is not as sleek as the stuff you see on TV today but I like the attitude of the characters better than the current Xmen generation. There was so much more drama in the older series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Terrific Adaption of the Comic Story
Review: The Dark Phoenix does't suffer in the translation of the Clarmont/Byrne story back in the late 70's. A few changes to make it family friendly. However, the story still stands the test of time. The trail of the Phoenix was still as tragic as it was all those years ago. Lets hope Marvel releases the complete X-Men series on DVD. This one was the best of the bunch.
