| Wyrdness said: My opinon on BVS' Lex is that although I can see where some people are coming from in not liking the BVS version of the character I'll say the performance is one of the best in regards to just being a villain. I see BVS' version of Lex more as a new incarnation or version of Lex who brings a new spin and approach to the character rather than following a set template that everyone is used to, in gaming terms this would be a reboot rather than a remake, it won't click with a number of long time fans who are used to the previous interpretations of the character but for a good other number of people it'll be a fresh take who this version will eventually gel with while newer fans would have been given a treat by that performance. This will sound strange and ironic but the best way I can put it for anyone who hasn't seen BVS is don't go into the film thinking Lex is a James Bond scenario where it's a different actor following the same template go in thinking more along the lines of Batman funny enough where each actor does the role their own unique way. |
I didn't know who Lex was before seeing the movie. Yup, that's how ignorant I am when it comes to comics and superheroes. I never heard of him before!
So You are absolutely right, new comers will have a blast following his storyline, just like I did. I only read reviews after watching the movie and it was SHOCKING to read people complaints about the villain. Some even suggested this he was not the real Lex lmao. What shocked me more was reading what others thought was wrong with the movie. Just sounds like nitpicking and asking the producers to spoon feed us every bit of info because some can't just think it out.
And the thing is, if I speak positively about BvS then I am automatically lumped DC fanboys... yeah, what a super fanboy I am, not knowing who Lex was....
