Top 10 Superhero Movie Ending Speeches
Frank Castle survived being shot and blown up…but we weren’t sure how he would survive his encounter with this beefy Russian super assassin. Hilariously set to the symphony of Dvrosky’s “La Donna E Mobile”, this fight pitted desperation and quick thinking against unfeeling brawn as the Punisher uses anything he can to make a dent against this human terminator.

Equally invincible, Wolverine only wins by pumping her full of lead…or rather, Adamantium.
