8. Apocalypse – X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)
This potential was lost, as Oscar Isaac was covered by too much prosthetic and the screenplay was poor. The movie never managed to depict the godly presence of Apocalypse and his complexity in philosophical sense and reduced him to a normal "destroy-the-world" villain. Apocalypse's manipulative nature and ideological conflict with Charles Xavier remained under-explored. What had promised to be an epic ideological showdown ended up being a CGI-heavy spectacle, wasting one of the most iconic antagonists in the X-Men franchise.
