You feeling alright?

Well said.I actually agree. I don't much care for Eisenberg's so far -- I think he was miscast -- but, Hackman's Luthor was every bit as ineptly characterized as Tommy Lee Jones's Two Face. Complete lack of understanding of the character. They made him into a greasy, leisure-suited used car salesman ... with a bumbling fool for a henchman. If Hackman had played him closer to his characters in Unforgiven or The Quick and the Dead, that would've been something to see. Sinister. Powerful. Threatening. Would've been perfect. Instead ... we get Hackman doing an impersonation of Eugene Levy in National Lampoon's Vacation.
I'll take Eisenberg's Lex Zuckerberg over that. At least there's something sinister there.
Eisenberg was good for the role because he's 6" smaller than Cavill and looks thin and fragile yet has this childish like power about his performance. It was a good castin' choice.I'd rather see Hackman play Luthor in BVS with the BVS script, but since that's impossible, I agree that the BVS Luthor is a better version of the character.
I like the Lex Luthor character more from BvS instead of from Superman I and II. He shows more intelligence and evil.
That said, I do not like the way Eisenberg played the character. The delivery of his lines during intense sequences felt absolutely forced. It's most evidenced on the building rooftop scene with Superman. And during that scene, what's up with his hand shaking too excessively while saying his lines? It was so overdone that I found myself looking at his hand more than his face. It was drawing that much attention.
Spoiler:1. The Halloween, Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Friday the 13th, and Saw franchises are all weak and boring in terms of story/depth and can barely support their own weight. They're classics for a reason, but I don't understand the appeal at all.
2. Men in Black franchise > Star Wars franchise
3. Jaws is amazingly boring up until the final confrontation with the shark. But again, classic for a reason.
4. Ghostbusters II is an OK sequel.
5. MCU > DCEU (I guess that's not really unpopular, LOL)
As a side note pertaining to #1, I just don't understand the appeal of horror films in general. I can understand wanting some adrenaline rush, and I most certainly understand the appeal of monster films with great special effects (I.E., Aliens, Predator, Pumpkinhead, etc.), but films about generic slashers with knives, chainsaws, etc., literally bore me to tears. How do you enjoy a film if the goal of the film is to sicken and/or disturb the audience? It makes zero sense to me, LOL.

Spoiler:
1) GoT doesn't deserve all the constant praise it gets. It's a good show, with interesting characters, good visuals, a good story and all that jazz, but take out all the HBO stuff, and it's not that great.
2) Black Sails was one of the best shows ever, ever. And nothing is comfier than the first season. Not even...
3) Suits is the comfiest show in the history of TV. It's nothing new, exciting or whatever, but you can always put it on and never feel especially dissapointed.
4) Rick & Morty sucks DOOM's balls. It's nothing more than Reddit-tier memes.
5) The Young Pope is one the best new shows. Apart from the gorgeous cinematography and depth of Lenny, Jude Law plays an awesome eccentric Pope.
That's all I can think of ATM.
