This last bit, however, can come with some caveats when not done right.

Then cameGodzillain 2014, kicking off the MonsterVerse on the right foot.

The sequel, though,King of the Monsters, would prove considerably inferior.

Hollywood hasnever quite managed to nail Godzilla, which is particularly clear in this film.

He vowed revenge, no matter the cost.

The writers really thought they could get away with it.

Things started going wrong from the very start of the decade, as proved byWonder Woman 1984.

This version of the villain is grating, uninteresting, and visually unappealing, to say the least.

Alas, that’s not what happened.

His horrible puns are the final nail in the coffin.

TheGod’s Not Deadseries definitely aren’t among them.

Not a good start.Making her a full-on horror villain while simultaneously trying to make her sympathetic?

It’s about as silly as it sounds.

A lot of issues stem from its terrible villain, Namaari, Raya’s archnemesis.

Namaari may just be one ofthe worst-written villains of the 21st century.

It was a serious, gritty re-definition of the character.

Not so inFolie a Deux,where he becomes inconsistent, pathetic, and devoid of any interesting meaning.
