X-Men Apocalypse: 36 Easter Eggs, In-Jokes & References You Need To See

2. The Danger Room And SENTINELS!

The biggest fan-baiting moment comes when Professor X has revealed that he has decided to start the X-Men team up properly and Mystique has given the new recruits a speech.

That takes place in the Danger Room, which was last seen properly in The Last Stand. In that film too, the X-Men were set on a mission against holographic Sentinels and the fan favourite robots reappear in Apocalypse. They don't appear to be holograms this time, which suggests Xavier has considerably more money than sense.

Still - even despite how irresponsible it is to rebuild them after Days Of Future Past - seeing them reappear on screen is a full on mark out moment.
