Apocalypse Scenarios in Order of Best to Worst

According to my husband being slightly excited by the prospect of the apocalypse is irrational and abnormal, but what can I say?  I saw Mad Max: Road Warrior at a very young age.  The following list arranges scenarios based on ease of survivability.  Now, that's surviving the aftermath of the apocalypse, not necessarily the event itself.

Mad Max: Fury Road

1. Plague: Preserves buildings and resources, Survivors are the "fittest" & can adapt to harsher conditions.  Might even end up doing the planet a solid as fewer people means fewer carbon emissions.

Walking Dead

2. Zombies: Again, preserves buildings & resources. More likely to have long-term danger to survivors tho.

3. Economic/Government Breakdown due to Political Unrest: Everyone's health starts out normal & there's no mass destruction, but its a total free-for-all which will lead to poverty & violence, crime lording, lack of health care, coups, and other less fun things.

4. Natural Disaster: Serves us right for ignoring global warming.  Survivors are gonna have a hard time finding resources.  Adverse weather conditions (cold, hot, dry, wet--Mad Max or Waterworld, it'll be a mess) will also put a damper on survival.

5. Robot Uprising:  Having a hard time deciding where this one goes on the list since there are a few different results. Are we just gonna end up hooked up the Matrix (not the worst thing IMO) or are we gonna be meat slaves?

Independence Day

6. Independence Day style Aliens: Totally screwed, but at least it's not our fault.

7. Nuclear Winter: If we get blown up because Donald Trump is an idiot I'm gonna be beyond pissed.  Survivors will have to deal with the long-term health ramifications of radiation, lifespans shortened across the board. Buildings and resources destroyed.

Wild Card: World took over by super-villain. There are just too many ways this could go to put it on a list.  Are they using tech? Magic? Armies? Mind control? (My preferred method of world domination.)  What are their intentions?  Dr. Horrible wanted to use evil means to make the world a better place.  Megamind had no idea what he wanted to do with the city once he had it.  Dr. Evil just wanted to be a dick to world leaders for fun and profit.
