I now what a movie about the four horsemen of the Apocalypse doing exactly this but being super petty every time something doesn't go their way.

So what, like a dark comedy/horror? Maybe John Lithgow and John Larroquette as two of them?

War starts a fight when he loses a bet, walks away with his chips in the chaos?

Famine gets pissed at a fat person playing slots, and every time we see them in the background for the rest of the movie they're wasting away more like Thinner?

Pestilence gives instant super gonorrhea to a dude flirting with the waitress he likes?

Cause I'd watch that.

Totally. And then they spend time in an emotional repose where they talk about their lives and they just give each emotional support before riding off and bring the apocalypse.

Yes, we are on the same wavelength here. I envisioned the ending as the "talking on the hood of the car at dawn" emotional-but-lightly-funny wrap up scene at a ranch outside the city. At the end of the conversation we pan to the city in the distance where a hellmouth opens or a nuke goes off, they give each other smirks and knowing nods, and ride off.

One of the is the "young" horseman whose a little insecure and sad that his a recent divorcee played by some like Ben Stiller or Michael Cera. And then there's the cool one. The guy who planned the trip. But he's also trying too hard and at the end comes out wishing he'd become a jazz dancer and loves watching Hollywood golden era films and thinks Danny Kay is under rated. He should be played by JK Simmons or someone like that.
