Lex Luthor: Do you know the oldest lie in America, Senator? It's that power can be innocent. Lex Luthor: The Red Capes are coming! The Red Capes are coming! Lex Luthor: [giving speech] Books are knowledge and knowledge is power, and I am... no. Um, no. What am I? What was I saying? The bittersweet pain among men is having knowledge with no power because... because that is *paradoxical* and, um... thank you for coming. What a fucking dweeb --- Kind Regards, Darmik ...

Of the many, MANY issues the movie had; I also feel this was overlooked when the movie was panned. In the end, I can't even remember him accomplishing anything.

Terrible casting, literally one of the last actors that should be playing Lex Luthor. To be totally fair his role would have stunk under any actor. What 'lie' is he even referencing?

I was on board with basing him on a silicon valley CEO.
But Eisenberg wasn't even that. He was a fidgety weirdo. He was more like a guy trying to act like The Dark Knight's Joker on a YouTube stream. --- Kind Regards, Darmik ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think some people in Hollywood think a compelling villain just needs a unique voice and some 'deep' monologues to have a compelling villain but you need a lot more than that.
Really the total flop of Lex shows how tough it is to actually make a great villain. --- Kind Regards, Darmik ... Copied to Clipboard!

He was honestly the worst part of the movie for me. Even as an independent character, he was terrible. As an attempt at Lex Luthor, he was an insult.

I get that creative type people want to make adaptations their own and do their own thing, but something I feel like they need to take a step back and go "you know what, let's just do a traditional interpretation".
All Synder really would need to do is look at STAS/JL Lex and basically copy that. You can still do your original story, hell you can still have Jesse play him. But that Lex is basically the best parts of the character distilled. Actually, one of the DCAU's best features is its ability to take characters with decades of history, stories, and characterizations and boil them down to their core essence. DCAU Lex was a pretty great merging of corrupt businessman Lex, mad scientist Lex, and self-proclaimed savior of humanity Lex. --- S*** I have to stop doing that," Gheb said, as he lay back down and died again. - Forgotten Love Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl ...
