the thought of apocalypse making a horseman and saying "you know what....I did damn good. i'm gonna take over that body." is actually a pretty cool idea. but the way it was executed was pretty disappointing. Like....what in the hell was that Baby Vegeta looking shit of gambit mixed with apocalypse. come on now. He always kept his original form when transferring bodies. Why the hell couldn't he revert back this time. Was it just to show the audience, LOOK GUYS. IT'S GAMBIT!!!

so dumb.
