When they had cast Kevin Spacey as Lex in the Superman Returns movie, everyone was overjoyed.... After watching the movie, it was all such a tragedy :(
Hope the opposite works for this one....
Yes, being an optimist :)

"who is next Jonah Hill as Darkseid or Seth Rogen as Night Wing."

Yet you got mad because I "pretended" to know who you are & what you watch LOL.

"Henry looks older then what he is while Jessie is the opposite."

For the like billionth time. Supes & Lex's age differences DO NOT MATTER. There is no strict rule for it. Unless the story calls for a 30 year old-looking (There's that word again LOOKS, LOOKS, LOOKS, LOOKS,) bald twin of Supes then i'd argue WTF!!!?! But it doesn't. Or won't.

"Jessie just can't play a hard, psychopathic, power seeking, villain if he could we would of seen it by now"

And lucky for us you would have only complained in those boards, not here. How uninspired to want to choose an actor who's typically typecast as "psycho" or bald roles. By that logic we'd have like 13 actors & 13 actresses in Hollywood. No one ever getting an opportunity.

"I really hope this bombs now"

You always have.

"and build up slowly to the Justice League film."

aaaaaaand the truth comes out. The lack of a Marvel formula... Why do people pretend like that is the only way "team-ups" have ever worked. LOL Wow.

TBH this is a piss poor article. Written by a complete amateur. It claims Affleck is bad & completely stops there. It's literally Ben Affleck is a terrible choice PERIOD. Not even offering a link to a past "reasons Affleck will bomb" article. Nothing, but i decided to keep going & stumbled on to this...

"They seem to value the role of Alfred a bit more than they should; recently casting only Oscar winners in the role."

A bit more than they should... Alfred as never EVER been unimportant in the comics. EVER. I stopped reading right there. I await a decent article with valid points as to why Eisenberg is a bad choice. Something that doesn't start with "Eisenberg played alot of teenage geeks before"

Here's the thing Foxtrot, you have an accurate, but VERY limited, picture of Lex in your head.

Lex has been written a whole number of a lot of different ways. His first appearances in the comics originally had him with a full head of hair; the "bald" schtick only happened as a result of an artist's mistake, but then they explained the baldness into official canon.

In some of his incarnations in the comics he's fat and old, in some he's just a mad scientist with no real monetary power. The Lex from the Smallville series was not so muscular at all and in fact looked and talked a lot like Jesse Eisenberg. And he's the best Lex we've gotten hands down.

The problems with body types in comics and cartoons is that they're always exaggerated. Sure, Lex has been depicted as a big strong man, but I don't think that's ever remotely central to his character. His nemesis (Superman) is the literal an incarnation of physical strength and and raw power. A Lex that tackles that with manipulation and intelligence is more important than a Lex who looks like he could beat you up.

That would've made sense, though, and we can't have that...

You mean it's possible that he gave a good audition??? And that we should have some self-respect & common sense of waiting and seeing the end result instead of crying like babies? :0

I dunno that sounds a bit crazy. /S

Yeah but past experiences don't necessarily prove the future. Just because Heath Ledger successfully played the Joker, doesn't mean every other actor not fit for the role will be astonishing.

We need not rely on that.

I'm sorry but Zack Snyder is not Christopher Nolan.
