9. Superman Levels Metropolis - Man Of Steel (2013)
Warner Bros. PicturesHumanity asks a lot of Superman. We expect him to fly in, take care of business, and do so with a minimum of collateral damage; thats not the easiest of tasks when he has to throw down with other super powered beings. 2013s superman movie, Man of Steel, showed audiences how Superman got his start in the saving humanity business. Apparently, theres a huge learning curve. Superman starts out strong, saving the world from a world engine device that threatens to destroy all of humanity: so far so good. However, in the climax of the movie, Supes begins to make some rookie mistakes that cost a lot of innocent lives. An evil Kryptonian, General Zod, takes offense to Superman busting up his world engine and the duo duke it out in the middle of downtown Metropolis. Instead of taking the fight to the sky, or, flying off to a less-populated area, Superman opts to keep the fight in middle of the city. This extremely ill-advised decision leaves Metropolis a wasteland, costing millions in property damage and killing thousands of innocent bystanders. Supermans snafu doesnt rank higher on our list because he does save the world in the end. Hopefully, the Man of Steel will tweak his life-saving skills before the upcoming sequel, Superman vs. Batman: Dawn of Justice.
