3) It Finally Delivers A Satisfying Take On Wolverine’s Origin
X2 did a pretty good job of teasing Wolverine’s origin story, but X-Men Origins: Wolverine took that and just completely fucked it up in the biggest way possible. However, in the space of just a few minutes, X-Men: Apocalypse delivers a far more satisfying take than both of those in regards to how Logan gained an Adamantium skeleton and lost his memories.
In a gloriously bloody and violent sequence, we finally see Wolverine as Weapon X (helmet and all) as he slices his way through Stryker’s men in a bid to escape. This tells us all we need to know about what the hero has gone through and does so in a way which pays homage to the source material in a satisfying fashion.
Simple, to the point, and a lot of fun, this is how you handle a cameo.
