'X-Men: Apocalypse' Will Be Set in 1983

X-Men: Apocalypse will take place in 1983. Ten years after the events DOFP according to screenwriter Simon Kinberg. 1983 is of course the year most remembered for McDonald's introducing the McNugget, but now the X-Men will have their chance leave their mark on that eventful year in US history.

McNuggets are cool and all, but I really think 1985 is way better than 1983. Perfect theme song for the flick.
