#Sketch Ex-Men: Gambit

While Deadpool's having a lot of success on the big screen, Channing Tatum's random Gambit spinoff film never seems to lift off, despite the studio and Tatum always trying to remind us that, yes, that movie will eventually get made. Some day...

Here's  an hilarious sketch featuring two very funny man, comedian Pete Holmes and Silicon Valley's Thomas Middleditch!

Time for a little X-Men parody, courtesy from Pete Holmes!

X-Men: The Animated Series - Gambit & Rogue

Why were Gambit and Rogue even paired in the X-men comics, back in the 80s/90s?
I mean, Gambit's waz supposed to be le player, oui?
And Rogue wasn't da kind o' gal ta be interested in this kinda guy, right?

What convinced the writers/creative team on the X-men back then to pair those two and have Gambit "stuck" with a gal he wouldn't never, ever be able to touch or Rogue "stuck" with this charmeur she couldn't even trust in any way.

You know what? I think it's the accents. Pairing those two sounded like pretty fun comedy in the waiting.
It was even more apparent in the cartoon, once animated and above all, voiced.

See...



They're hilarious!!

And damn! This ol' cartoon looked fantastic, almost like seeing ol' original X-Men artwork animated for real, unlike most modern Marvel shows which all take original routes in the art direction.
