More often than not, the superheroes and villains in comic book movies take inspiration from their comic book counterparts in terms of the powers and abilities they display – Wolverine has his healing factor, Iron Man has his suit of power armor, the Hulk is super-strong, Magneto can manipulate metal and so forth – but, every now and again, the characters depicted on screen display abilities that are completely different from the versions in the source material.

Why does this happen? We don’t know, because in the majority of these cases it ends up annoying fans more than anything else.

This article lists ten such examples, in which the version of a character depicted in a comic book movie was inexplicably given a power that they don’t possess in the comic books.

Telekinesis (2015 Doctor Doom)

In the comic books, Doctor Doom has a vast array of powers (he’s much more powerful at base level than a lot of people give him credit for). In addition to what is essentially a superhuman intellect, he has powers that are both technological and mystical in nature (both of which are at high levels in terms of Marvel characters).

His armor contains countless gadgets that do everything from erecting powerful force fields to firing miniature missiles, while his magic enables him to do things like cast the immobilizing Crimson Bands and summon legions of formidable demons/monsters like Mindless Ones.

However, in 2015’s awful Fantastic Four movie, Doom – played by Toby Kebbell – gained his powers through exposure to the environment in an alternate dimension. Those powers were completely different from his comic book powers. Essentially, he gained the power of telekinesis, specifically the ability to move and explode things with his mind. His body also transformed into a durable form with the ability to fire green energy.

And this isn’t the only instance in which the movie character possessed powers that differed from the comic book version.
