Don't know why I'm bothering responding in this thread but I've seen this "plot hole," "issue," "nonsensical part," brought up a lot: how/why/when/where/who did Lex know and why did he let Batman steal the kryptonite.

If you watched the freaking movie it's answered for you... And this is where I have to agree that too many people went in with Marvel on their minds and wanted everything written nicely for their eyes and ears to absorb without issue. Sorry, but I had to go there :p

Lex clearly smirks when he saw Batmans batarang left where the kryptonite was, as if he expected it, gee, after Batman tried to steal it and destroyed half of Lex's hired fleet in the chase scene where he meets Supes for the first time. THEN Lex mentions how he left the job to kill Superman in the hands of Batman of Gotham but he failed "so now the devil will do it" and that's when he released Doomsday who was made from Zod's body, Lex's blood and the Kryptonians technology that is mind you, thousands of years more advanced than Earths. Doomsday was Lex's contingency plan if Batman failed to kill Superman.

Anyway, OP, re-readin your complaints and then reading your follow up above, its very clear you didn't even try to like this movie. You are criticizing literally everything you can think of and its obvious. Which, whatever thats your thing. But why go through the effort just to try to make a movie already critically panned even worse?
