Ah, the X-Men film franchise. Filled with such wonderful villains as Magneto, Magneto again, Apocalypse, Sebastian Shaw (?), Magneto... Again? Okay, sure. The point is, under 20th Century Fox, the X-Men's fascinating rogues gallery was done a significant disservice. Rich and terrifying antagonists like Reverend William...
