* In [[Superman]] Annual 3 in the Armageddon 2001 crossover, Superman declared war on all nuclear weapons. At first, he just took away all nuclear weapons.

* A German Film ''Stahlnetz: PSI'' begins with two brothers kidnapping a rich girl {{spoiler|actually she is not...}} for ransom. They reason a girl is a [[Spoiled Brat]] anyway and a few days in captivity won't hurt - and for her family, a million is only a pocket money, so it's not really bad. But then the younger brother decides that it is better to leave the girl to die, and {{spoiler|when the other brother objects, beats him up and locks him together with the girl to die}}.

* In [[Star Wars Legacy]] Emperor Roan Fel is willing to use Sith powers to get his Empire back. {{spoiler|He finally slips to the dark side when he plans to use a bio weapon on Coruscant to wipe out the Sith, unbeknown to him they are immune to it, but it will kill his allies and billions of lives still on the planet.}}
