you start

Kevin Spacey was a worse miscasting.

I start

...

Jesse Eisenberg in anything, really.

why does this cunt even have a career

Perfect Lex origin story. Starts off proto-Lex, fucks Batman and Superman's shit up, Creates a God monster, learns the knowledge of the cosmos, and finally jailed.

Now he's Lex

he looks kind of like zuckerberg

that's it

>why does this cunt even have a career
>Jesse Eisenberg
>Eisenberg
There's your answer.

agreed user Lex was amazing in BvS, a solid pleb filter.

BvS, True Detective S2 and Only God Forgives are probably the most accurate pleb detectors.

...

Thought he was miscast, changed my mind after watching bvs.

He was a great villain

All worth it for this single line delivery

Serious: Cameron Diaz in Gangs of New York, Secondarily DiCaprio, who is great in every other Scorsese role, in Gangs of New York.

More like pleb filter performance.

>Whiny spergs don't like it and cringe because he acts too much like them.
>Fanboys cry because not muh Luthor

Bravo Snyder

Exactly, just because he wasn't the same s the animated character doesn't make him a bad choice. He still felt like lex principly, just a younger moron immature version

It's like saying Heath was bad because he was different to nickleson... Or Romero.

You have to judge them on their own merits.

some of his stuff falls flat like the puns at the end of BvS UE with Batman and the ding ding ding scene, but there was definitely something to his manic snake oil salesman take on Luthor, the part where he meets Clark and Bruce especially, he was literally the smartest man in the room and neither of them had a clue about what he was doing/about to do.

Keanu Reeves in Dracula. So fucking terrible, what was Coppola thinking? Thank god for Gary Oldman.

kill yourselves you corporate cocksuckers

Who should've been casted? He played the character exactly how he was supposed to. I'm not even a huge Pitt fan, but I think he nailed it.
Ruins the movie.4

Spot on he was GOAT

He's like the joker if joker had unlimited wealth and an elitist upbringing.

sorry, he's shit

Fuck off you edgy plebian nu male

He was so cringe.

Those fucking umms and ahhs and uhhs were so fucking out of place. And they sounded ad libbed. Like the fucker forgot his lines and had to pause for a second.

Elaborate, oh but you can't

...

not an actual miscast, just a bad execution.

Brilliant people usually fluctuate between the mental and the physical world jumbling several thoughts at once. Pretty spot on if you ask me

How did the fucker learn about Cosmos anyway? So fucking far fetched

>in conclusion
>trailing ellipses at the end of the text
D-

there was a scene where he literally asks the ship's AI, who tells him it has a shitton of information, to teach him everything

The kryptonian database... obviously the entire concept of krypton and superman is far fetched...

>Parroting another person's opinion like fact without being able to come up with your own

Nice argument you queer doppelganger

You're a fucking retard.

He's fucking great.
Seriously you need to watch it agin.
I hated him the first time but Everytime I watched it I like him s little more.
All his subtle moments and gestures are brilliant.
If he actually thought of those body language by himself then I'd say he's a great actor.

>literally nothing: the post

Did you read what's written in that meme image or did you just post it like the sheep you are?

Even if he were a great actor (which he isn't) his performance in that movie would still be shit because the writing was shit.

>IF MAN WON'T KILL GOD THAN THE DEVIL WILL!

Actually have a 150 IQ, stop projecting your lack of life experience

>it's a fine line between madness and genius

Tbh

Meant to reply to this:

Whether this is bait or just a lack of self-awareness, these posts are hysterical.

Lol, thats actually a great line

The writing fluctuates between poor and great but hovers majority of the time on decent. For a capeshit I thought the writing was brilliant.

lmao how does it feel to be BTFO this hard?

>Mother of God, look at the time! When you came here you had an hour....now it's less.

Best thing is he won, he succeeded in his goals, only to realize there was shit even more dangerous than Superman himself.

With Superman's inevitable resurrection they should do a version of this scene with Lex, his reaction being quite the opposite.

I really hope you're kidding. Lex's extended god metaphor was the cringiest thing I've ever seen in a movie.

It's called ambivertedness you uneducated dolts

Holy fucking shit did you faggots watch this film while shitposting on Sup Forums at same time

>cringe
Are you 14?

>that pic
pretty fitting as lex was a better joker than a lex.

>True Detective S2
If you even pretend to appreciate that shit you're more pretentious than people posting Berlin Horse as their favorite film

Lex was accurstely portrayed as a larger then life villain with a god complex suffering from making his delusions of grandeur into reality. Of course he would say something akin to that. The line perferctly fits the context and the scene. You should cringe at your lack of understanding.

I originally wrote "pangs of sympathetic embarrassment," but then I changed it to be in terms of cringing because I felt the first way around sounded pretentious. What words would you use to describe that concept?

Felt like someone doing an over top 90's Keanu impression...if he was doing a high school production of an English play

>Lex was accurstely portrayed as a larger then life villain with a god complex
>he line perferctly fits the context and the scene.

Fails on "show don't tell."

Your use of language is autistic af

I already said that's why I changed it, answer the question.

>>Fails on "show don't tell."
How so?

This film was very heavy on show don't tell which got a lot of Sup Forumsmblr tards confused as there wasn't QUIP-EXPOSITION-QUIP structure to the story and narrative (as in Marvel flicks)

conditioning, to put it kindly. You were most likely brainwashed by neckbeards on Sup Forums into le cringing at any criticism, tangential or otherwise, of the concept of god.

Miscasting what? Who else can you imagine delivering those lines for that VERSION of Luthor that was written?

You do know they cast an actor to fit the script and not the other way around right?

Didn't go to this school, but it's the first link that came up when I googled for an explanation of this concept:

wright.edu/~david.wilson/eng3830/creativewriting101.pdf

Having Lex repeatedly shout about the stupid god metaphor is bad writing.

...

Jack Nicholson (young).

Eyy that's about it honestly lol

He was a good cast.

People go to these lengths, to find script theory essays about writing, to shit on BVS but when Marvel has a film that if you put it on mute you couldn't tell what is happening, nobody here bats an eye.

Fucking idiotic amount (and effort) people put into hating this film.

and no citing a paper someone else made doesn't make for an argument.

That doesn't answer my question. You're trying to argue the thing doesn't exist, I'm asking how would you describe that thing. It doesn't have to be in reference to that specific movie either, I'm just asking for an alternative way to describe something that makes you cringe in embarrassment for another person or their work.

>Having Lex repeatedly shout about the stupid god metaphor is bad writing.

Wut? The scene with lex and Superman is the only time he rants about the god delusion,

Having read Red Son, N52 JLA, Man of Steel, Morrison JLA the film captured most of the ticks and tocks of Superman really well, having read the Dark Knight MIller stuff (I read more than what was recommended) he handled Batman really well too.

I mean I haven't read comics outside of these (it was a list posted here) and what I read was visible in the films. Some of the stuff got changed for worse (Pa Kent Invisible Son logic is in the Man of Steel comic, but in a different non-retarded way) and that narrative is my only gripe and even then it's just like 1/3 of that very narrative that spans the two films.

Actually it's the opposite for this character.
They originally had a traditional Lex but after a casting couch with Jessi they liked him so much that Snyder rewrote the character to fit him

All of DC sucks except Batman because they're all overpowered as fuck.

Take Superman for example, he literally fights invulnerable gods like Darkseid or Doomsday because everything else is pointless.

Not to mention the Flash who is even more imba.

The first time I've witnessed a wilful need to hate on a movie. It's hilarious desu

Agreed

Your whole perspective is based off of fragmented pieces, unable to put together the subtlest of details to create the bigger picture. Which is clear indication that your intellectual capacity is lacking.

An extended vocabulary doesn't mean your intelligent.

That explains why the Marvel comics being so terrible compared to DC.

Yeah came here in sometime 2006, don't know exactly when but this is probably the first time I find this much will and effort to hate a film.

It's bizarre.

What?

Spiderman and X Men are great compared to faggy Superman.

As I said only Batman is good aka detective comics.

All the good comics are batman related. Proving my point

Wrong.

Man if the writing is good the 'power level' wont matter. It's such a small thing to bitch about. I don't even think of it when I read these from time to time..

Sorry I don't read pasta. When someone posts it I can safely assume he's too stupid to post his own answer, and therefore chose a stupid one.

That... That wasn't your point
I made that post

It is the same narrative, structured from beginning, establishing it, to thesis, also visually told.

What on Earth are you complaining about like holy shit?

That it wasn't one fucking essay dropped at helipad? That'd be dog shit idea

Good Christ. This is some insane levels of finding-reasons-to-hate-a-film.

it's ok that you're illiterate.

>An extended vocabulary doesn't mean your intelligent.

I never once claimed I was intelligent. Intelligence has nothing to do with the topic. And what extended vocabulary are you even talking about? I'm using normal words you retard.

That's the scene with Superman I was talking about though. 4,5,6 are more throwaway lines resulting to/from the consequences of supermans death

Because the movie was fucking garbage and this is Sup Forums, where we shit on garbage like BvS.

The movie was extremely red pilled. I guess that's why a lot of people hate it here, cause they're blue pilled plebians from reddit that believe in sjwisms

>What on Earth are you complaining about like holy shit?
>That it wasn't one fucking essay dropped at helipad?

What? I'm arguing the opposite, they shouldn't be saying these things out loud.

>HURR YOU'RE GOD AND DOOMSDAY IS THE DEVIL IT'S A METAPHOR YOU GUYS GET IT???

Hahahahahaha holy shit, go back to watching V for Vendetta you crazy fuck

no it wasn't. kill yourself.

Jesse was fine as a little Luthor.

Honestly the group I went with thought he was one of the better performances in the movie.

Because he plays his limited role very well.

sorry your tastes are awful.

please fuck off to r/DC_Cinematic

>superman is bad

Ask me how I know you're a pleb

You're arguing your flawed opinion believing that your right, which is probably esteemed by the notion that you believe that you are intelligent. And most people believe there intelligent because of am extended vocabulary which is not the case.

Even a parrot can learn how to say Pardon Me

comes with the territory of mainstream film making like this.

only the 'FIGHT NIGHT' speech is terrible in my opinion.

could the same have been said with more grace?
yes.

is it badly executed in the film? No can't say so myself.

decent film, the hate it gets is bizarre to me.

>this is Sup Forums
>we

Fucking kill yourself please

Superman is for 12 year olds

...

Enjoying your power fantasy aimed at five year olds, bro?

>we
You. Need. To. Go. Back.

All I wrote in the post you responded to was "show don't tell." Where are you getting "extended vocabulary" from? And maybe if you focused more on the actual topic and less on your weird "intelligence" ideas we could actually have a productive conversation.
