Generation X

Release: December 20, 1996

Students at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters battle a mad scientist (Matt Frewer), who's discovered a way to travel into other people's dreams, in this made-for-TV spin-off of the popular X-Men comics. The film served as the pilot for a TV series, but it debuted before the late '90s superhero craze to miniscule ratings. Many fans of the comic book were disappointed with this adaption -- in particular, the fact that Jubilation Lee (Heather McComb) was not Asian, as she had been in print.
