X-Men Apocalypse: 11 Biggest Questions Answered
4. Will Magneto Be Arrested For Causing Mass Destruction?
The Question: When Apocalypse grants Magneto the power to move Earth's magnetic poles, he causes a metric s***ton of damage, undeniably killing many, many people worldwide.
At the end of the movie, Magneto is once again on friendly terms with Charles, but is anyone going to bring Magneto to account for his callously destructive behaviour, no matter that he was under Apocalypse's influence?
The Likely Answer: Nope. This one's probably going to get brushed under the carpet pretty fast, all the more so considering the hand-wringing about collateral damage that's unfolded in both Batman v Superman and Captain America: Civil War.
If X-Men jumped on that bandwagon, it would just seem like they're copying the trend, and going down this rabbit hole would only further illustrate how wonky some of Apocalypse's writing was (especially Xavier and Magneto having an easy reconciliation despite all of Magneto's murder).
