10 Moments When Comic Book Movie Villains Were Totally Humiliated

5. Stryker Chained To A Dam By Magneto (X2)

Making a second appearance on this list (this time for a good movie), Stryker once again finds himself at the mercy of people with mutant powers, Karma being quite a powerful force in the X-Men universe. William Stryker's plan to use Charles Xavier as a tool for mutant genocide is one of those many comic book movie plans that is so grandiose it is quite easy to screw up. During the climax of X2, Stryker has a simple yet effective backup plan. Once he discovers that Wolverine and company have infiltrated his base, he makes his way straight to his getaway vehicle - a helicopter on the opposite end of the base. He would have gotten away, but at that moment, Magneto turns Xavier's mind powers against humans instead, incapacitating the Colonel on the helipad. A few minutes later, Magneto once again pays Stryker a visit - this time to chain him to the dam he built his base inside, as it is about to burst. Can't say he didn't have it coming.
