One of the reason's that Lex was a complete letdown to me because this was the 1st Lex on really any platform that was swagless and had no "presence"

From Hackmen, to Spacey, to the cartoon portrayal of him.... hell to even buddy from Smallville.... all of them played Lex WAAAAAAAAYYYY better.

Jesse seemed all over the place and it was hard to really take him serious as the "big baddy" or mastermind. Again, I think he would've made an excellent Riddler but his Joker was booty.

I think for this world Mark Strong would absolutely fukking KILL IT as Lex in this universe, I mean dude has presence and I think has a great look for Lex

If they could recast..... I would get him.... I think that move alone would've added so much more value to this character and movie

He can play as Lex Luthor Sr. in a flashback, on how he built Lexcorp and how he conflicted with a younger Bruce Wayne/ Batman. That would be dope.

the media bias against this movie has been crazy. i didn't hear them saying anything when Age of Ultron came out

Yeah, these critics are anti DC all the way. At this point, they don't even sound objective, outside of the handful of flaws.

I also liked how the movie explains the cellular breakdown kryptonite does to a Kryptonian. It's painful to even see, actually.

As many people know, I hated Man of Steel and I still do.

I actually enjoyed this movie. Henry Cavill is still awful as Superman and I was kind of rooting for him to be better in this movie and he was not. Lois Lane should've died but it looks like she will in the future so I'm ok with that. She annoyed me throughout the whole movie.

Affleck brought his A-game and I was surprised to find that I was the only person that actually liked Eisenberg's Luthor. Surprised myself actually.

Uhhhh, I thought it was solid. Just walked out. No idea how it got such a negative reaction from critics

People had higher expectations is what I'm guessing. It was decent. Not god-tier and not the nightmare people are making it out to be.

It shouldn't have been 2 and a half goddamn hours but blockbusters gonna blockbuster, I guess.
