The 25 most badass movie gods
6. God - Bruce Almighty (2003)
The Movie God: With a minimalist approach to deity fashion, Morgan Freemans zen God prefers to keep it simple. You still wouldnt want to cross him though.

5. Thor - The Marvel Cinematic Universe (2011-)

Most Bad-Ass Moment: To the amusement of Peter Venkman, Zuul (in Danas body) levitates above the bed, growling and snapping like a dog tethered to a balloon.
3. God - Super (2010)
The Movie God: A nerdy-yet-serious deity, this God (voiced by Rob Zombie) did his homework before appearing in James Gunns superhero caper. The white beard is ditched in favour of a clutch of tentacles any B-movie monster would be proud to own.
