10 Movies Where The Villain Deserved To Win

One of the superhero flicks hinted at in The Incredible Hulk’s entry, X-Men: The Last Stand has a few issues, and a lot of them revolve around story juggling.

Jean Grey (Phoenix but not really Phoenix) is supposed to be the villain, but she just kind of drifts through the movie, never driving it. Magneto actually does most of the legwork as villain then, but he’s mainly fighting against humans who want to round up and exterminate mutants; or at least the mutant gene within them.

So, who is supposed to be the good guy? Wolverine, who’s there to make us sad and think about death and stuff? A very badly put together movie, this, but one where Magneto definitely deserves to win.

This methods are extreme, and he does love a spectacle, but it’s essentially a Holocaust survivor leading his own people against a faceless military task force looking to end his people’s gene pool.

The X-Men movies have never been too subtle with Magneto’s backstory, and here is probably the clunkiest use of it. Still, you have to admit he has a point, and seems only to be painted as the bad guy because he disagrees with Charles in spirit.
