Seeing The Hobbit whilst knowing what lays in store for Bilbo in the Middle-Earth Peter Jackson built was interesting even if it was stretched beyond what the story could support.

Well, one of my all-time favorite movies follows the opposite template...

Richard B. Riddick is the hard criminal that everyone is afraid of, but ultimately becomes somewhat redeemed and saves the remaining survivors. And then a great anti-hero is born.

...maybe if you watch the movies in reverse?

Good one!

A friend suggested Maleficent. I think thats a good example.

I don't think there are very many prequels specifically made to play out a main character's downfall to evil, unless of course they start doing more super hero villain movies like the Venom movie that has supposedly been in the works for quite some time. But a couple more characters did come to mind...

Jack Torrence from The Shining.

Harvey Dent from The Dark Knight.

Thanks Riv.

Maleficent is indeed a good example. A pleasant surprise from Disney in 2014, and one that made some, IMO, good changes to the Sleeping Beauty mythos.

I just don't know why someone set Earthworm Jim on fire.
