Sequels The Official Kevin Spacey As Lex Luthor Thread

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

^I hope they can come up with something that leaves all characters with dignity though, i liked Richard as a character, and wouldnt want him leaving the franchise on bad terms. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

 

[Delete]

I think Richard should just go bow out once he figures out lois loves supes n not him, n that jasons not his son.

Just because it wasn't his sperm doesn't mean it is not his son though. Hasn't anyone here not been raised by their biological parents.

 

[Spider-Bat]

Oh they had better have another villian besides just Lex, that is enough, yes Ke is good as him but that is enough of just Lex, maybe they can show him grow into a so called reformed business man but then he could be involved with another villian maybe Brainiac or he clones Supes creating Bizarro, but I don't know with stupid Singer nothing good comes from his take on things.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

^The writers have said numerous times that an alien villain will be included in the movie.

 

[Mysterio]

No, that's not what I said. That's not what I think. That's not what i'm doing.

then how and why are people being unreasonable? explain.

 

[turtlefocker]

damn humanoids and there noids that are human

 

[Justice Bringer]

Actually, I think Richard will be killed off in between films. he served his purpose ( cock blocking Superman ) and since there is no way that Lois can leave him without being a total *****, he'll be killed off. This leaves Lois to raise Jason alone, and Clark feeling the need to finally step up and be a real father to Jason and husband to Lois. Also, let's not forget Richard flies small planes....I hate to say it, but he may as well have a big target on his forhead.

The thing is it would probably make more sense for him to die by the third film; AFTER him and Lois break off the engagement and Superman and Lois are back together.

That would lead to a more interesting situation.

The other issue is I'm not certain how long he was Jason's father. Whether he was just Lois' boyfriend who decided to formally adopt Jason when they decided to get engaged. Whether he already knew Superman was the father and was keeping it under wraps for Jason's safety. ...Lois certainly knew Superman was Jason's father all along. She was lying through he teeth when Lex confronted her with the truth.


Either way, the decision to make Richard and Lois' relationship into a 'prolonged engagement' as opposed to a marriage is probably a good sign that they plan to undo the engagement at some point.

Ty-Zor...

Ty-Zor...

you want someone marketable...

 

[Dark Knight]

She did though.....just as Jason likely will.




Richard and Lois breaking off the engagement due to issues unrelated to Superman was how I handled it in my own outline;

But its anyone's guess how they'll get Lois and Richard to break up and resolve the triangle. I really doubt Richard will die though....

But if you look at this logically, there was a reason Singer made Lois and Richard 'engaged' as opposed to married. Something will obviously happen that will cause them to call off the engagement and re-evaluate....and it may not necessarily be related to Superman.

I'm telling you....it would be much better and very unexpected for Jason to die trying to save Lois or Superman or perhaps both toward the end of the sequel. It would make for great drama and emotion and it will make the film that much better and memorable. Keeping Jason alive adds to many complications to future possible films.

 

[GhostPoet]

Forget Jason. I wanna see Luther and Brainiac kick butt and Superman smash giant robots.

Killing him off actually makes things more complicated.

Superman eventually with Lois and Jason as their son is a pretty simplistic concept.

Superman and Lois mourning the death of Jason would be really bad; they'd never be able to get together after something as dark as that happening.

 

[SymbioteKal-El]

Glad to hear Spacey is back, he's a great actor and was great as Lex

 

[Tyler23]

Spacey will be one of two, or possibly three villains.

I like the inclusion as long as he takes more of a backseat this time around.

 

[Eros]

I dought they wil do 3 superpowered villians, that never turns out well.

 

[Tyler23]

If they do go with three, I suspect they'd introduce the third toward the end, and maybe keep his intentions/background a mystery in order to properly setup the next film.

Sure they would.....

They aren't going to kill off the kid in a PG-13 flick man comon... as much as the kid sticks a fork in future sequels... we are stuck with it... believe me I am the first person who would sign on for this.. but if anything... it would be Richard sacrificing himself when the moment came. Just send the kid off to a private school... but yeah I'd kill him if I could write the script

 

[Mr. Socko]

I was watching G4 today. When the news started they mentioned that Singer will be filming MOS next year because he's doing two other movies first and that Spacey will return. Yeah I know we've known this for a while. Just thought I'd share it with everyone that it was stated on tv too.

But the Potter films are PG13 now and they killed a kid in the Goblet of Fire. More are to come in the future Potter films.

Heck....even in the Return of the Sith....a PG13 film....younglings were massacred unfortunately.

Yeah we should have know Deep throat was deep throating poopsicles from his mouth.... I mean I will admit I have been flip slopping back and forth with my stance on this thing... but I am thinking its MOS for 09... not JLA... but that can change next week with another report... so time will only tell...

See, to me the movie implied that Richard thought he was Jason's dad ( although clearly Lois always suspected he was not ) Also, Richard never treats Superman with any kind of suspicion or weirdness...which I think he would if he even suspected this was the father of the child he considers his son.

The audience clearly wants Superman and Lois to get together, and the only way to do that is to have Richard out of the picture. And unlike J Jonah Jameson's son in Spider-Man 2, Richard is actually likable, so having Lois "leave him at the altar" would make her very unsympathetic to say the least. So I think poor Richard is toast. I'm not really sure how else to do it without making the new movie even more of a soap opera than Superman Returns was.

 

[FaT_tONle]

Looks like Marsden is gonna bite the dust yet again... ouch... guy can't get any love... why do you take these roles bro?

Richard was suspicious of the degree of Superman and Lois' past relationship.

"Did you love him?"

And in the final scenes he seemed to be encouraging towards Lois and Jason seeing Superman one last time.
