I imagine he'll be one of the worst received characters. Then again I expected that going in, because people were iffy about Eisenberg being chosen.

I really don't think we've seen Eisenberg as Lex. We saw flashes, but I can't help but feel like, in this universe, the evens of BvS is what changes him.
If he's still running around like a poor mans joker with the bald head, then I'll have an issue. I think his tone will change after the shaving of his head symbolizing that character shift.

He felt like a mix between the joker and riddler to me... But I warmed up to him as the movie went on...
Great theory tho @Harlem to the Bronx, I can get on board with that

I got that feeling too but his intro to the series was poorly handled.
The best thing about this movie was Batffleck. I'm gonna need a trilogy out of him.

I'm still befuddled by the decision to use Lex Jr. and not the Lex Luthor we all know and love. I don't know if I'm giving the creative team too much benefit of the doubt, but they must have something greater in store for the character.
I'm hoping that in one of the JL films, as Lex Jr will be delivering some godawful monologue, he'll have some SLJ Deep Blue Sea type death at the hands of his father, played by you know who.

For me when Gadot was cast I thought she was too thin to pull off the look of an Amazonian warrior princess, but she definitely worked it in the movie. Reservations cancelled.

I really think she may have put on a little bit of weight. She was rail thin in Fast Five when they pulled your mans fingerprint from her butt.
I was one of the people skeptical about her build, too. I was wrong.

It was actually better than expected, just wish they didn't make Doomsday like the Wolverine version of Deadpool.
Just some underdeveloped on-screen punching bag for the heroes.
Also see they're trying to rival the Avengers in the way they set his film up, but they're rushing it, and it looks like they're trying WAY too hard.

Not my number 1 but I didn't feel the need to rehash what everyone else was saying.
Also every time I saw lex, I thought of Carrot Top.

I understand the narrative motivation to have Batman bring together the JL (which is a good idea) but movie audiences just haven't had the chance to enjoy Superman. The man needed a sequel to MoS

He will get a sequel.
I think they did it way too early, though. You needed to establish JL in order for the funeral to have the impact that it was supposed to. They kinda wasted one of Supermans best storylines.

Zach Snyder sitting alone in his office rises from his luxury leather recliner and uncoils into his true multi armed form and says
"now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds"

But....it was a good idea to have Battfleck be the one to bring the JL together....I'm glad they understand that he is the glue that holds the franchise together.
Looking forward to his performance in JL.

Was there really anything of substance in the Death of Superman storyline (not including Reign of the Supermen)? Last I remember, a lot of it was just Doomsday fighting the B-Grade JLA heroes culminating in the final battle in Superman 75.
And I really don't think Snyder's rationale holds any water. Why can't you have both Superman and Batman collect the members of the JL? Almost like when Charles and Eric were assembling the X-Men in First Class. Technically, wouldn't it mean more to a potential member if Superman is asking for your help? And wouldn't Superman and Batman together, seeking more meta-humans exemplify the type of extreme threat that is out there (Darkseid, Braniac, whoever)?
Bottom line, Zack likes Batman more, and if he needs to kill Superman off to concentrate on him, he will do it.
I swear, Zack only loves Superman for his abilities. He loves shooting him floating over people, flying fast, heat vision, destroying buildings, but God forbid he actually explores the character's psyche.

Agreed. I think he went about it the wrong way, but I find Batman tracking them down alone a lot more compelling than Batman and Superman working together.
They didn't have to use The Death of Superman to set that up, though. Snyder is a knucklehead.

Naah, Reign of the Supermen is by far the best of the arc (Death, World Without, Reign). Honestly never cared for Death all that much.

So basically, any knucklehead could've been asked to put Bats and Supes in a movie together and it'd still gross a disgusting amount :x
Well played DC.
