If you follow prestige films, this time of year is a frenzy of Oscar-bait and speculation. If you”re more of a sci-fi/fantasy movie buff, December is usually pretty quiet. But not in 2015. A smorgasbord of genre films are attaching trailers to the upcoming “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”…including “X-Men Apocalypse.”

Tomorrow morning, tune in to 20th Century Fox”s YouTube channel for the teaser trailer as Apocalypse arrives. Until then, check out this motion poster!

Between this and “The Hunger Games” marketing, motion posters certainly love to set symbols on fire.

“X-Men Apocalypse” arrives in theaters on May 27, 2016.
