    "You will bow down before me!! Both you, and then one day, your heirs!!" His delivery of that line still gives me chills. I've adored every film this man has done since.

    Ultimate actor to play General Zod! The newer version of Superman in which General Zod appearance is undoubtedly a very close second!
