What was the most evil thing that Simon Phoenix did?


I want serious answers please.

I'd have to say killing all the bus passengers and then setting up Spartan for their deaths. Taking out the warden's eye was pretty gruesome too, but he did it for a purpose. Although it's possible he could have just taken the warden prisoner and used him for a retina scan instead of tearing out his eyeball.

Yeah but that was off screen. I am referring about the most evil things he did on screen.

Well, killing the hostages was off-screen, but we saw the plan of using them to frame Spartan carried out, it's the opening scene and premise for the movie.

As far as just acts we see Phoenix do, it's pretty cold when he blows away the two guys in the museum who were trying to talk to him. Without even turning his head and looking at them.

You are right. By the way did he kill the hostages by a gun or did he blow them up?

reply

I'd say he shot them....remember when he tells spartan ''those passengers were all already dead'' and that was before the huge Explosion....maybe there was another small Detonation ,but i dont think so

Trolls dont have an opinion....just an urge to compensate their frustration about themselves!!!

I doubt Phoenix shot the passengers, because then they would have had bullets that weren't from Spartan's gun. What he probably did was put the bus somewhere inside with the engine running, and passengers tied up, and suffocated them and then untied them.

He probably did worse tho, drug dealing drive by's... shooting babies in the head to get to an enemy, rapes, robberies...etc.

Phoenix was an idiot tho, bus lines could bring the drug customers to him.

I think he probably just blew up the bus.

By the way who was more evil? Phoenix or Wah Sing Ku from Lethal Weapon 4?
