The primary antagonist of Kevin Smith's deliriously entertaining black comedy Dogma is Azrael (Jason Lee), a demon desperate to escape Hell even if it means literally un-making the world. In step with the movie's wildly off-kilter story and tone, the charming motor-mouth villain ends up being killed by probably the least-badass of all the main characters: Silent Bob (Kevin Smith). A whole half-hour before the end of the movie, Azrael confronts Bob, Jay (Jason Mewes), Bethany (Linda Fiorentino), Rufus (Chris Rock), and Serendipity (Salma Hayek). When Azrael realises that Bob plans to hit him with a golf club, Azrael gloats that he's a demon and it won't have any effect, even inviting Bob to take a swing. And like that, Bob complies, unexpectedly tearing Azrael's chest open with one hit. The twist? The club had been previously blessed by Cardinal Glick (George Carlin) in order to improve his golf game, allowing it to make short work of an otherwise impervious Azrael. Nobody's more shocked than Bob that it actually worked, as an incredulous Azrael falls to floor dead, after exclaiming, "But I'm a fucking demon."
Ozymandias is a fantastic villain whose legacy was rightfully cemented in DC's Watchmen. Far from a walking cliché, the character was well-rounded and emotionally complicated, looking to right the world in his own twisted way. But DC ruined this iconic figure by bringing him back. DC's Doomsday Clock brought together the Watchmen universe and the traditional reality of the Justice League. It was a flawed idea from the start and very controversial. Ozymandias could never live up to his previous portrayal, and the comic never really landed with readers. The DCU would never make the mistake of meshing these worlds together, and certainly shouldn't paint Ozymandias as an antagonist for anyone other than the Watchmen.

Tommy DeVito is essentially a wild animal masquerading a sly mobster. Ruthless, unpredictable, and terrifyingly explosive, Joe Pesci's thoroughly memorable Goodfellas character is so hot-headed he makes Kanye West look like a man with the patience of a saint. What makes DeVito quite so hateful is that he is evidently unmoved by his own fearsome anger, bobbing along through the mob world in Goodfellas with a chuckle and squeak that demonstrates a complete lack of remorse for any of his actions. Pesci's performance as DeVito was so convincing that the actor was rewarded the Academy Award For Best Supporting Actor for the role, a far cry from his comedic performance in the likes of Lethal Weapon and My Cousin Vinny.

Anyone who knows their Elder Scrolls lore knows that Mannimarco, the King Of Worms, is a huge deal... on paper. Banished from the powerful Psijic Order due to his love of Necromancy, Mannimarco kinda flopped around for a while before reemerging during the events of TES: Online where he served the Daedric prince, Molag Bal. True to his reputation, Mannimarco was only able to be defeated by five of the most badass heroes in this world's history. But when you later come across his soul imprisoned for his failure in Molag Bal's realm of Coldharbor, he's throwing a tantrum and "demanding" his freedom like a spoiled child. He eventually escapes and by the end of TES II: Daggerfall, Mannimarco becomes one of the rare villains to actually attain godhood - mostly through blind luck - transforming into a divine body known as the Necromancer's Moon. Then he just doesn't do anything for a while. In TES IV: Oblivion he manifests a new mortal body to go after the head of the Mages Guild, but is easily defeated by the player. For being necromancy incarnate, Mannimarco doesn't do much of anything with all this power. And when he does, he's easily foiled. The guy is addicted to losing.
