    I don’t get why they don’t just make these villains self-interested megalomaniacs like the old days. Focus the drama on the protagonist instead.

      Because a few movies did “tragic villain” decently, audiences liked the switch-up, and the talentless hacks took it to mean that ever villain has to be “complex”.

    Perhaps they realized that, late into production, the audience would sympathize. So they added him blowing up the city to make him irredeemable.
