It's a reference to Paul Revere's famous "warning ride" prior to the Battles of Lexington and Concord, which basically kicked off the American Revolutionary War.

Right! I mistakenly said the american civil war on my post. How embarrassing.. Anyway, it's a cool line, with all the reference.
 
Lex's lines show just how smart and educated he is with history and theology. Useful subjects for someone who wants to be involved with politics.
 
His Devils come from the sky line really reminds me of that Gods are selfish beings who fly around in little red capes line from Superman Returns. Say what you will about versions of Lex but those two lines are great Lex lines.
 
Is Paul Revere really such an obscure historical character?

Maybe...we're getting dumber by the minute....but I think his call "the Redcoats are coming" should still be known
 
I'm calling it now... his wig will be the worst actor in this film.

Spacey made up for Superman Returns by giving us the best "Lex Luthor" ever put to screen.

I liked his version in Superman Returns
 
I'm not sure what to make of Eisenberg's Lex. At first glance he appears to be a little more eccentric then I expected him to be. Since I expected everything to be toned down. Not a bad thing.

As always, the trailers take many things out of context so it's tough to tell.
 
I'm getting the impression that we may only see bald Luthor at the end of the movie, which is disappointing. Otherwise, I'm enjoying what we're seeing of Luthor so far. It's good to know that WB's mission statement to produce mature and weighty superhero films doesn't exclude eccentric and aloof villains. That type of personality makes the crimes he commits all the more heinous.

I enjoy the dynamic between this Superman and Luthor. Take away his fortune and intellect, this Luthor is the most unseemly person to become the arch nemesis of the world's strongest man - whereas the comic book version is still a formidable and good-looking man in his own right.

Not since the reboot. They made him chubby and showed him chugging down energy drinks all the time, hence his envy of Superman.
 
I like to pretend the New 52 doesn't exist.
