    It gives Lex a perfect pivot point when it comes to the populace. They'd be silly to choose otherwise.

    He can't just be bwaa-haa-haa'ing and be obviously evil.

    One of the best modern day comic reinventions was to portray Lex as more Machiavellian than evil. He genuinely believes he is helping humanity by pitting himself against Superman. He is basically an intelligent version of Donald Trump.

    I see Trump as genuinely believing that he does good, even though he is a basically evil man. His "hair" is just life imitating art from Gene Hackman's version of Luthor.

    I just wanted to interject real quick.

    I know I've been a huge critic of MoS, I'm not going to repeat those criticisms, but I just want to say the fact that the new movie is going to directly address what happened in the climax of MoS goes a long way to making me interested in seeing this movie.

    Pretty cool seeing him do the challenge in the suit. And clearly Lois hasn't varied up her outfits much since the first movie.

    ^ Idk dude. All these articles seem like click bait. Since no story details outside outside of Batman fighting Superman have been released. We don't even know about Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor yet. Snyder is alledgedly shooting BvS and JL back to back, so we'll have to wait for more info. 2015 seems like an info dump year.

    Why walk around with your pants legs rolled up?

    Unless --if the rumors are true-- Lt. Dan's magic legs are from LexCorp and it's some kind of enhanced bionics that are too big to fit inside the pants, and might play a role in later installments.

    Or more likely we're just seeing him between takes on a scene where he's showing his legs to Clark, and he doesn't normally keep the pants rolled up like that.

    Because that would be odd if he walked around like that all the time.

    It's not click bait. The author of those posts on io9 just seriously hates Man of Steel. And, unlike us, he gets paid to bitch about movies (and their sequels) that he doesn't like.

    Love the extra little wavy line they put in the S. And here's hoping the suit looks even half that colorful in the actual movie.
