You know, while I was banned. I thought about something.
How excited I was about Jamie Foxx as Electro when he was cast for TASM2.
On paper, that casting sounds perfect. If his Electro was as badass as his Django, Electro would be up there with Molina as the best Spidey villain. I ever said I think his Electro will be the best Spidey villain since Molina's Ock. I was excited. Actor I love playing a badass villain to a hero I love.
Then I saw the movie and I'm like "what the ****?" Electro isn't badass. He's pathetic. He comes off like Killain in the flashback of IM3 and Nygma in Batman Forever. He does absolutely nothing. His motivation is extremely weak.
I was so disappointed.
Now with Jesse as Lex. When I heard he was cast, I hated it. I still am not a big fan of it but I know this. In a film with Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman; Jesse will be Lex. They aren't gonna make Lex a joke. They can't. Sure Zod was meh in terms of motivation and dialogue but he still came out as a serious villain and one who won't take **** from anyone.
What I'm saying is, maybe Jesse won't be that bad as Lex. Maybe he'll do a great job.
