to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
movie villain meltdowns
for this list we’re taking a look at
scenes in movies where big baddies lose
their cool number 10
Harvey Dent / to face The Dark Knight
it’s not about what I want it’s about
what’s fair you thought we could be
decent men in an indecent time all it
really takes is one bad day to transform
a white knight into a two-faced villain
district attorney Harvey Dent’s decline
into madness began with the murder of
his fiancee but ended with the
mutilation of the left side of his face
I don’t know if you’ve seen the movie
but all of this happens at about the
same time then why was it me who is the
only one who lost everything
it wasn’t the Joker chose me desperate
to find someone to relinquish him of the
guilt
Harvey takes Commissioner Gordon and his
family hostage putting their fate as
well as his own up to a flip of the coin
you first before he has the chance to
kill Gordon’s son though Batman subdues
the villain and wrestles him to a dirt
grave hey Dad I hear oh are you live
long enough to see yourself become a
villain
number 9 Regina George Mean Girls oh my
god it’s her dream come true diving into
a big pile of girls the fall from the
top is never a pretty one Regina
George’s plot to turn newcomer Cady
heron into a social outcast ironically
backfires when Janis Ian reveals the
friendship between the newbie and the
queen bee of the plastics to be a hoax I
convinced her that it would be fun to
mess up Regina George’s life so I had
her pretend to be friends with Regina
and then she would come to my house
after we just laugh about all the dumb
stuff Regina said humiliated in front of
most of the student body
Regina storms outside of the school but
is stopped by Katie in an attempt to
make peace Regina wait I didn’t mean for
that to happen find out that everyone
hates me I don’t care
ignoring her apology Regina explodes in
one last final burst to rage you can
take that fake apology and shove it
right up your hair grant is soon cut
short however when her face meets the
front end of a yellow school bus joke
and that’s our Aegina George died no I’m
totally kidding but she did get hurt
number eight Norman Osborn slashed the
Green Goblin spider-man costs are down
revenues are up and our stock has never
been higher there never a particularly
kind way to fire someone but there’s
always one of two ways you can take it
wonderful it’s not in fact it’s the
reason we’re selling the company what
after Norman Osborn’s company is bought
out by a leading competitor he’s forced
to step down from his position as Oscorp
CEO and he’s relayed this piece of
information at a tense board meeting why
wasn’t I told the last thing they want
is a power struggle with entrenched
management the deal is off if you come
with it the Board expects your
resignation in 30 days the irony of the
situation settles in when it’s
discovered that Norman as the Green
Goblin previously staged a terrorist
attack on their competitors headquarters
to prevent this outcome
I started this con
you know how much I sacrificed while
only losing himself to the formulas
influence for a moment Norman quickly
collects himself to coldly plot his
revenge and he gets that revenge Norman
yeah my
number seven Hal 9000 2001 a Space
Odyssey open the pod bay doors please
hell no one likes to be the odd man out
not even highly advanced artificial
intelligences being the sentient
computer on board the discovery one
means that nothing gets past Hal well at
least as far as the intent of the crew
members aboard his vessel goes open the
pod bay doors hell I’m sorry Dave I’m
afraid I can’t do that
upon discovering Dave Bowman’s plan to
shut him down
Hal chooses to ignore the crewmen’s
request to open the pod bay doors and
instead decides to assume total control
of the spacecraft itself I know that you
and Frank were planning to disconnect me
and I’m afraid that’s something I cannot
allow to happen while the manner in
which Hal speaks to Dave bears new
direct maliciousness the chilling
inflection in his voice is definitely
evident Dave this conversation can serve
no purpose anymore goodbye number six
Franklin be fantastic mr. Fox we took
everything they took everything you need
a moment
Franklin bean and his two other
associates have had their farms rated by
the troubles of mr. Fox well they could
be anywhere by that digging right under
F well in a sense we’ve only made
matters worse should have stayed out of
it upon finding his farm tunneled and
storehouse invaded B knots to express
his dismay in the privacy of his own
trailer physically the once level-headed
and calculating man is soon seen
throwing tables and ripping down window
curtains in an uncontrollable rage
lesson learned here try not to bottle
your emotions just play it cool like a
fox
good idea number five
Norman’s Stansfield Leon the
professional alpha-2
man down man down I told you here’s a
guy you’re not going to want to ask to
repeat himself this corrupt DEA agent
finds himself with his back against the
ropes once he has to face off with the
professional hitman Leon and sorely
lacked the necessary cooperation of his
team members bring me everyone when it’s
reported they have another man down
norman commands that everyone come in
for backup however when his partner is
confused by the order norman completely
flips when he has to repeat himself
instantly breaking The Collected facade
he maintained for the duration of the
operation you mean everyone number for
jacobim Mugatu Zoolander shut up
enough already ballstein who cares about
Derek Zoolander anyway male modeling can
be really stressful especially when

scheme becomes worded twofold once Derek
Zoolander breaks out of his hypnotic
trance and receives massive applause for
his stunning runway performance man has
only one look for Christ’s sake blue
steel Ferrari lockira they’re the same
faith mood is soon broken when Mugatu
proceeds to out Zoolander as a fraud
with one look and four claims himself to
be the innovator of the fashion world I
invented the piano key that time I
invented it what have you got Derek

prolonged rant who got who decides to
finish the murderous deed himself but
not before being introduced to the true
power of Magnum

number three Annie Wilkes misery but
last night I found your key some devoted
fans go to great lengths to meet their
