Fun Fact: the Rogue/Kitty dance in "Spykecam" was modeled after a similar dance in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Bad Girls"
and the dance Boom Boom does in the episode "A Walk on the Wild Side",
seen as Rogue approaches the balcony railing, was mimicked from Jessica
Alba's dance in Never Been Kissed. The play used in the first season episode "SpykeCam", Dracula: The Musical, is a real play. The song used, however, is an original song made for the episode.
Boyd Kirkland is a producer and writer for X-Men: Evolution: I plead guilty to being a big Buffy fan, and of using the Faith/Buffy
dance as reference for the Rogue/Kitty dance. Good animation, especially
on TV schedules; low budgets, is hard to come by, so for
especially difficult scenes like that one, it is very helpful to use
live action as reference (Disney has been doing it on all of their
feature films since Snow White). And speaking of Buffy, I always thought
it had many similarities to what we were trying to do with this show.
Think about it. She is a teenager with "super powers," who is constantly
saving people at her high school while trying to avoid being discovered
(even though other students are often involved in the mayhem). Her
principal and later the mayor are constantly hassling her about what
she's up to, and even become her enemies. Sound familiar?
Interview via Toon Zone: Who is the person who watches Buffy on the team? I dunno
whether you'll ever admit it, but the Rogue/Kitty dance in Spykecam was
copied from the Buffy episode "Bad Girls".

All anyone can say is........COOL!
That is VERY cool.
Its plagerism.
Plagiarism*
And no it’s not because that wouldn’t hold up
Nope, it's rotoscoping. Disney did it, Bakshi specializes in it. 👍👍👍
