Alfred was funny because he gave zero fucks. Lex was trying too hard and made me cringe at how unfunny he was.

They should have had Eisenberg just play The Joker IMHO... If you read up on Jared Leto's actions on the Suicide Squad set it's pretty obvious that he was already in a very dark place already, and having Joker's demented personality imposing itself on him via method acting is really destructive to himself and the people around him.

really because it sounds like a shithead actor doing stupid publicity stunts on-set to create a "mythic" performance in substitution of actual acting.

He'll never top Wesley Snipes method acting. When Blade became an outlaw in the third film, Wesley refused to pay his taxes in order to stay in character.

Eisenberg was god-awful as Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons should have been used a hell of a lot more. Put him in every scene somehow including the end fight where he dispenses wisdom to all 3 of them.

They should've brought back Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor IMO. If he looks ancient they could've did those Tron effects to make him look younger.

Maybe they tried, he read the script and went "hahaha. I only do lovely movies if I die in the first fifteen minutes."

ED: Oh. I just had a horrible thought. If the decision to make this Lex the son was so that real Lex could appear in Wonder Woman (they are both in Europe at the time, right?)... holy gently caress that is stupid. But I half expect it.

Also I think the only reason they used that particular photo is DC really wanted a character that lived in the 40s and punched nazis.

You do realize they've been hilariously hyping how craaaaaaaaazy the Joker is in the lamest possible way for like a year now, right?

Funniest thing is he might finally answer the question, "How do you gently caress up the Joker?" and be the first unlikable one in the role.

Romano? Great. Nicholson? Iconic. Ledger? Legendary. Hamill? Everyone knows the voice. And the streak will finally be broken here.

I hate how skinny Elektra is in the new Daredevil season too. It's just not believable that she can flip grown men over her head or do any of the cool stunts you'd expect.

It's why the first Black Canary in Arrow was my favorite, 'cause she looked jacked and seemed physically capable of performing the role. Then they gave the moniker over to piss pants baby waste of space Laurel Lance who just bumbles her way about like a moron with her spindly lil arms.

Even if someone did get super ripped to play the role people would still complain. I recall people saying Linda Hamilton was too ripped and it was gross when T2 came out. People will always find something to complain about.
