20 Awesome Moments When Comic Book Movie Villains Totally Owned

1. Magneto Moves The Golden Gate Bridge - X-Men: The Last Stand

Think about it: is there anything more inherently awesome than bending an entire bridge to your will? Not just any bridge, by the way - THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE. For sheer effort alone, Magneto ends up winning our list of moments where comic book villains totally owned... because it's near on impossible to do anything as downright impressive and cool as this. In the movie, of course, Magneto doesn't just move one of the world's most iconic bridges for a laugh - he does it so he can connect Alcatraz to the San Francisco mainland to launch an attack. The best thing about this moment isn't just in the visual splendor that arises from watching a man moving a bridge with his mind - it's that it cements the idea that there really are no limits to Magneto's powers - if he can move a structure of this size, where does it end? Could he move an entire city if he really wanted to? A planet?! Like this article? Which comic book villain moments have we missed? Let us know in the comments section below.
