10 Worst Sci-Fi Movie Characters Of All Time
9. Dr. Emma Russell
When Dr. Emma Russell first shows up in Godzilla: King Of The Monsters, she seems like a compassionate and intelligent woman working to better understand the Titans. While working for Monarch, she was kidnapped by a group of eco-terrorists, and it seems as if she's being used for their nefarious purposes.
Eventually, her ex-husband, Mark Russell, comes back to Monarch to help find his ex-wife and daughter, later tracking them and Godzilla to Antarctica, where the eco-terrorists, led by Alan Jonah plan to release "Monster Zero." Just when it looks like Emma and her daughter will be rescued, she flips the script.
She not only refuses the help of her ex, but she also awakens and frees "Monster Zero," who is none other than King Ghidorah! She then goes on to release Rodan in Mexico, while Ghidora goes about awakening all the Titans lying dormant all over the planet.
These monsters are capable of destroying cities with a flap of their wings, and she released them in the ridiculous hope of saving the planet from humanity. When she realizes that their destruction will destroy the planet beyond what mankind was even capable of doing, she sacrifices herself to protect Godzilla, and effectively saved the world... from herself.
