10 Movie Villains That Were Total Fanboys

And finally, we have Mr. Glass (Samuel L. Jackson) from M. Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable. Glass, real name Elijah Price, suffers from brittle bone disease and finds solace in the comfort of comic books, of which he's an undeniable expert.

Glass seeks out David Dunn (Bruce Willis), the sole survivor of a train crash, under the belief that the pair may be real-life superheroes - on one end, the ultra-fragile yet extremely intelligent Price, and on the other, the invulnerable Dunn.

But at film's end we learn that Mr. Glass actually caused the opening train crash himself, as well as numerous other high-profile "accidents," all in an attempt to find his superheroic counterpart - the person who would emerge unscathed and give him a true life's purpose.

Price was so desperate for the hero-villain dichotomy of his beloved comics to be real that he engineered the circumstances through which himself and Dunn would be brought together. Fanboys don't get much more unhinged than that.
