10 Most Awesome Moments From The X-Men: Apocalypse Trailer

This week saw the long overdue release of the first trailer for X-Men: Apocalypse (which you can see above).

The events of X-Men: The Last Stand may have been wiped from continuity, but the young mutant is clearly still every bit as powerful as that version of the character.

Will we get a glimpse of the Pheonix here? It would be a missed opportunity to not attempt to redo that story arc after Brett Ratner messed it up like he did.
