21. THE DESTROYER

FROM Thor (2011)

PROGRAMMING This metal monster, who?s doing little brother Loki?s bidding, has pretty clear parameters: take out Thor.

SPECIAL FEATURES It?s giant, seemingly indestructible, and its face opens up to reveal projectile hellfire.

WHY HE PUSHES OUR BUTTONS This live-action movie version of this comic-book villain lived up to expectations and added to the heat of this summer blockbuster.
