BvS Jesse Eisenberg IS Lex Luthor - Part 8

[Guts]

He stole the cakes and her clothes?

 

[GreenKToo]

yuck, this is a sick twisted Lex then.

 

[Guts]

Well, he is ruthless.

 

[GreenKToo]

Well, he is ruthless.

thats not ruthless, thats downright freakylicious.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

Is anyone else confused why they went to such lengths to not reveal if Lex would be bald?

I'm not sure that the payoff was worth it.

For me it wasn't. But I was glad to see that he is going to be bald

 

[Angel0fDeath]

I don't think it was meant to be a "secret", but fans made a big fuss about it, kept asking if he was going to be bald so they decided to mess with them a little bit.

Do you mean this?

That was Jesse doing his Aunt May cosplay.

Yes like this. That seemed a bit over the top to hide the status of his hair

I'd love a scene showing just how ruthless Lex is..maybe something as simple as him sitting in his office, he buzzes his sec for a drink, she brings it but she ALMOST trips and spills the tiniest drop on his suit.
She gasps and Lex slowly looks at her. camera moves off to the hallway and a gunshot is heard along with a bright flash.

nope.

 

[terry78]

Luthor isn't petty about **** like that. He's petty about **** like someone failing him in a scheme he's got going. He doesn't really care about materialistic stuff ironically.

Better than this
-
When she wasn't looking
I shot my careless secretary forty times
I shot my careless secretary 40 times

That's as many as four lots of ten bullets
And that's terrible!

 

[John-An]

Too much for kids. THINK ABOUT KIDS

Ugh. Why is that creepy paedophile Jimmy Saville in here?

It would make sense if he won't be bald from the beginning of the film, but will only get a shave later. You can see hair under that scarf, whether that's his real hair or a wig. So they might want to keep us in the dark when it comes to the chronology of the scenes being shot. We can't figure it out if they always hide his hair. Or lack of it.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Got a problem? He'll fix it for ya

Now, he was one ruthless bastard. How he got away with **** for so long is unbelievable.

 

[Dark Raven]

I say that Superman should fire a laser beam at Luthor's head, and that's how he loses all his hair.

Luthor isn't petty about **** like that. He's petty about **** like someone failing him in a scheme he's got going. He doesn't really care about materialistic stuff ironically.

Someone mentioned Deniro in UNTOUCHABLES and for small "failures" and the like I think that's the way to go, though I do think an arrogant and full of himself Alex probably isn't above creatively ruining people's lives over such things. He may not kill a minor functionary of his for not being as precise as he would like but I am guessing he would quietly find some way to have them terminated from his employment. The higher the stakes are for him the worse it will be for his underlings.


And I can see people excusing or even praising Luthor for this. I really hope that Lex has a coterie of young brilliant types who orbit him and idolize the young maverick genius and will excuse the extreme sociopathic tendencies he has as a sign of his exacting intelligence.

I imagine that Lex is the type that makes unannounced visits to his various labs and factories, what have you, with his coterie in tow. He goes from place to place and criticizes the scientists and engineers in his employ about everything, and on the spot comes up with a brilliant solution to any of their problems after dressing them down, then like a hurricane he blows on to the next thing on his agenda while basking in the adulation from his various assistants and the like that follow him. I say, make Luthor have a Jobs/Gate/Branson type cult of personality about him. That's of course for public consumption, the persona of the brilliant business man and scientific genius. When the peanut gallery is gone and it's just Luthor and his inner circle, say like a Mercy Graves or a Doctor Happersen ect. the true Lex comes out.

I love the quote. Is that from a more recent Superman story?

I really don't know. Thought it was from TDKR by maybe another character. But it fits Lex.

And I'm surprised you don't know

I haven't really read comics in quite a few years John, so there's bound to be lots I don't know.

It's from Lex Luthor: Man of Steel.
