Agreed. It is extremely goofy.
AND I know that Superman isn't supposed to kill....but just indulge me for a second...
Is this a fair statement to make? Lex Luthor is an evil *******! It's true! He even said it himself in the trailer, he wants to KILL BILLIONS of people! He STABS Superman, shoots him with a missle, kiddnaps Lois and that stupid kid, ..hell it looks like he wants to kill everyone!
WHY WOULDN'T HE BE KILLED? WHY would he live? This isn't a 300 part comic book, it's a 2hr. (hopefully!) movie! Bryan Singer should have had the balls to kill off Lex Luthor. Big deal if he dies? He's a prick and yes I know that Superman 'doesn't kill' but there are certain circumstances that call for a guy to do what he's gotta do...and I think there could have been some way written into this movie to allow Lex Luthor to die...and not just get shot or slip on a banana peel or some lame **** like that....
...a villains end/death should be as good as the villain himself. Spacey looks quie evil, menacing, and really cool in a lot of the footage I've seen....so he should have gone out with a bang IMO.
