Magneto's 10 Greatest Movie Moments

8. Mystique€™s Escape - X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

Seeing as though Mystique helped Magneto escape from prison in X2 it only make sense that he would return the favour in the next film. Sometime following the events of X2, Mystique is captured by the government. While she is being transported via several trucks, Magneto shows up and does what he does best - tossing police cars around like they€™re hot wheels. Sadly, during the escape attempt a guard shoots a €œcure€ dart at him, prompting Mystique to save him by jumping in front of him and taking the cure instead. We see the blue shape-shifting mutant lose her powers right before our very eyes, leaving a nude Rebecca Romijn lying on the floor. Magneto, realizing that Mystique no longer has her mutant gifts, decides to leave her there. Wait, what a jerk. It€™s one thing to leave your former right-hand mutant by herself to once again get captured by the government but to leave Rebecca Romijn laying there completely naked and NOT take her with you is just criminal.
