@@eternallight523 Zack Snyder base this version of Lexx Luther on Superman birthright when Lex Luther was much younger and was much more neurotic Also, are you forgetting about Superman returns where they had Kevin Spacey as the more stocky serious Lex Luthor?
Same actually it’s just so bafflingly terrible it’s hard to take my eyes away. Truly one of the worst most bizarre performances I have ever seen. Even if I could see what he’s trying to go for, it’s just so horribly executed that it makes it just seem like he literally had one take per scene and improvised everything. It reminds me of a middle school kids idea of an eccentric billionaire
Going off what I know of Zack Snyder as a storyteller, I'm going to say Snyder probably mentioned that in an interview but never put it in any of his DCEU movies.
Incredible compilation Also since everyone lives to hate, this is unironically a brilliant performance and you cant convince me otherwise. Real life Lex's have shown themselves to be much more like Jesse's take than the (also incredible) calmer measured take people are used to
His mouth noises and onomatopeias literally has a whole character arc of their own. That's _insanity_ . His mouth is literally a character. Almost nine years later and Zack Snyder keep to deliver!
This Lex is without a doubt one of the worst castings in not just any CBM, but in general. It’s scenes like these that I’m glad Nicholas Hoult is going to be superior than this abomination.
@@ultimateslinger9857 and that’s exactly the problem with this interpretation of Lex. He’s not supposed to be some looney tunes cartoon character who’s off his meds. Lex is supposed to be a cold, intimidating, angry, calculating, and arrogant villain.
For the people saying Lex’s plan was stupid, you are correct but that’s the point. Lex, like in the comics, is obsessed with the idea of destroying heroic, super-powered beings. To him, an incredibly intelligent and ambitious “normal” human (like himself) is perfection. He wants Batman, a mortal, to more effectively kill Superman, a kind “god.” When that fails, he is more than willing to have an evil and destructive god-like being, that he created, do it and prove that the strength of heroes are an illusion. In this way, Lex is truly a pathetic and arguably ill man that finds any way to win in his mind. That aspect of Lex was captured decently well in the movie.
And that’s exactly the problem with Lex’s plan. This entire plot is nothing more than a complete convoluted joke. The only reason why Lex wants Superman dead is because he’s apparently abused by his father supposedly from what the toxic fanbase says, but even then that’s never been mentioned or explained. Plus, Jesse Eisenberg’s performance is flat out awful. This is not the way to do villains right. Lex is supposed to be cold, calculated and intimidating. Not some high school nerd who’s losing his meds and needs dire help. And nowhere in this film shows that this “Lex” is methodical.
@@luisquintero7359 I never said that the performance was great or that the characterization was spot-on. I think you misunderstood what I was saying. The point of Lex’s plan is that it’s gripping for meaning. He desperately wants to prove superheroes and regular people who fight for “good” are false and deluded. Lex may be very intelligent, but his arrogance has made him VERY stupid at times. Look at the Superman/Batman: Public Enemies arc or Lex’s kryptonite poisoning in Justice League Unlimited because he was so sure he was safe. Lex has such potential with his intelligence, but he’s often undone by his own pathetic greed and anger.
Lex Luthor played by Jesse Isenberg wasn’t entirely awesome but simply a great portrayal that shows his, cynical and psychotic side of his personality for which I was thrilled😅.
You can tell from their reactions that they're just tired of his shtick 😂. Also who the hell spiked poor Eisenberg's drink with Adderall during the production of this film?
There's so much misunderstanding to why he does this. It's not Jesse's audition for Joker or Riddler, it's a man you sees himself as the smartest man in the room and know he's outsmarting everyone.
Snyderfans need to understand that this birthright long haired lex ONLY 1% out of all lex versions in the comics where 99% is the established billionaire bald lex. What do people wanna see, the 1% or the 99%? Its like saying, capt america being gay is only 1% and 99% is the cap we know and love and yall wanna see that 1% 💀
I just saw this movie and was so shocked I had to look it up after because all of these are individually such atrocious acting choices. You might think these moments are like clipped specifically to look bad out of context, but it's actually worse IN context because not a one of his mannerisms plays off his fellow actor's performance. I genuinely don't know what his intention was with these, if he was trying to play it off like Lex is intentionally indulging in some kind of charming vocal quirk then that doesn't work because the stuff he does is annoying/unnatural/not charismatic enough, but at the same time it also doesn't come across as a genuine Tourette's-esque tick either because it's so clearly performative and fake. Just awful stuff

So fking accurate
This deserves a least 1k likes

More like Mark Zuckerberg instead of Elon Musk

He does this in every movie

should've won an oscar

Just when I think this is a good Riddler or Joker interpretation, I'm suddenly smacked in the face that this is Lex Luthor 😂😂😂
After awhile I could only hear the Skeksis from The Dark Crystal
If this Character wasn't named Lex Luthor, I would have no idea who this was supposed to be.
Nobody:

@@totallylegityoutubeperson4170 HOW DID I MISSPELL THAT?!?!?
@@JackNapier420 PLEASE tell me your name is actually Jack Napier
He would have been a much better Riddler than Lex Luthor. Even acted like Jim Carrey's Riddler in BvS.
It would have been inspired. Riddler vs Superman.
I'm convinced this was written and shot as him being the Riddler, and it was changed at the very last minute to Luthor.
Lex with tourettes
He should've been the Riddler, not Lex Luthor.
This Lex Luthor portrayal sucked, Gene Hackman was the best Lex Luthor.
@@JakeTheComicBookDude incorrect. That would be Smallville
He should've been the guy who gets the coffees.
@Jakethesnake-zf9tt Gene Hackman failed as an adaptation because Lex Luthor was never a greedy businessman.
@melontusk7358 he was in the original comic books. He knew she began a sort of a mad scientist, but also a greedy business tycoon.
Martha, Martha, Martha ... Mh, Mh, ... Nueeraaaaaaa
Gotta be honest, movie might've been ahead of its time with this depiction of lex luther. Everything about it screams elon musk now
He sounds like a teenager with a changing voice...
He’s like a combination of Jim Carrey’s Riddler combined with Johnny Depp’s Willy Wonka trying to do an impression of Heath Ledger’s Joker.
And they say Batman vs Superman is master peace
It is

He's like disturbingly good at playing a crazy man. Disturbingly.
Eisenberg is such a joke lol this is horrendous
this is the phase of him falling into insanity
Lex luthor : mmmmhm
its him being influence by the Anti-Life Equation
Certainly not the whole video
Going off what I know of Zack Snyder as a storyteller, I'm going to say Snyder probably mentioned that in an interview but never put it in any of his DCEU movies.
It's him being influenced by the anti-good acting equation.
Given... um, "recent events" involving a certain real-life billionaire, is "Anti-Life Equation" slang for ketamine?
I cannot stress enough how funny I find this video
bro is literally riddler instead of lex
How could a character be badly written and miscasted at the same time??
Wut an idiot you're!!!! This version is from birthright comics.
I liked him
Not really badly written, but definitely miscasted
@@redassassinyt4908 Badly written. Period.
He's is more like the Riddler than Lex Luther
He's a total weirdo teenager.
Jesse Eisenberg should make a sound duet with Kristen Stewart :)
Funnily enough they’ve actually done a movie together
Evil mastermind Lex Luthor everyone. Making noises like Mickey Mouse.
Anyone who says this is a good version of Lex is lying to themselves
much prefer this cut of the film
“Mmm, what am I- BOYS!”
Lex throughout this terrible Clusterf**k: mmmm. Nehehe. Ah. *O W W O W.*
Incredible compilation
Also since everyone lives to hate, this is unironically a brilliant performance and you cant convince me otherwise. Real life Lex's have shown themselves to be much more like Jesse's take than the (also incredible) calmer measured take people are used to
I love how the compilation makes it look like she was uncomfortable by lex instead of trying to hide. Also his moaning with Lois...
His mouth noises and onomatopeias literally has a whole character arc of their own. That's _insanity_ . His mouth is literally a character.
Almost nine years later and Zack Snyder keep to deliver!
Is this bait?
He goes "mmm" a lot 🤣🤣😭😭
Why did they make Lex Luthor into a spazzy aspie?
There's no way that anyone would be afraid of this guy
This character was even more uncomfortable to watch than Leto's Joker.
Letos joker only had 1 minute of screen time. Nobody even remembers.
I always wanted someone like Stone Cold Steve Austin for Lex Luthor. Someone who looks like they could go toe to toe with Superman.
Snyder showed some Chris Chan videos to Eisenberg as a reference to play Luthor
If you observe closely, he is basically impersonating Shah Rukh Khan. Crazy.
yes
woulda made a great riddler
WHY THIS ACTOR ALWAYS ACTS THE SAME
i know people will laugh at me, but i dont know why, but i liked this interpretation of Lex
This Lex is without a doubt one of the worst castings in not just any CBM, but in general. It’s scenes like these that I’m glad Nicholas Hoult is going to be superior than this abomination.

Every time he speaks all I can hear is the voice of the bird from Rio 😭
Jesse did such a great job at playing the Riddler here!
Wait what about Lex Luthor?
Oh...
One of my favourite actor
Lex Luthor played by Jesse Isenberg wasn’t entirely awesome but simply a great portrayal that shows his, cynical and psychotic side of his personality for which I was thrilled😅.
Just showed he's a terrible actor with terrettes
I don't care how much people praise the snyderverse, 6/10 of the casting decisions are just pure caca.
Bro thought he was playing joker
why did they write him like this
He should have played as the Joker and the riddle
Makes me wonder if people would have treated this movie like the sony spider-man-less films if it were to be released today.
tHe bAT
0:11 are... you a Yoshi?
Can't believe you didn't include "paraDOXical"
I like his hair
Even Jesse Eisenberg knows this was horrible
Snyder thought this was a good idea?
You can tell from their reactions that they're just tired of his shtick 😂.
Also who the hell spiked poor Eisenberg's drink with Adderall during the production of this film?
he would make a good joker.
I know it’s wired but im obsessed with his hair if my son have the same her i i will never cut
Sounds like Mickey Mouse
He acts like such a nitty
There's so much misunderstanding to why he does this. It's not Jesse's audition for Joker or Riddler, it's a man you sees himself as the smartest man in the room and know he's outsmarting everyone.
i just dont see lex luthor
The HaMhmRrrAh cut
0:54🤣
Thank god he wasn’t the riddler lol.
He would’ve been better as the Riddler. In fact, I can see him as Toyman.
Bro auditioned for mad hatter?
Jesse eisenberg is great actor in the movie
thank you for allowing me to enjoy the film
Why am I watching this with my eyes closed, grinning?
He reminds me of screech from saved by the bell
haven’t seen the movie but i support this actually. tech billionaires are freaks and should be depicted as such
How does anyone defend this movie?
Eisenberg is just slightly less sexy Jerma.
Least he was consistent
He is perfect for Riddler
1:02 nicado avacodo
He plays luthor jr not the same
Worst Lex Luthor
Good choice for a Joker
What the fuc! was that🤣🤣🤣
Imagining this character as The Riddler improves everything.
But it's not and a waste of potential.
If Kanye sampled these I would lose my fucking mind.
This is one the Worst Castings for CMB movie it makes Topher Grace venom look like Robert Downey jr Iron man.
the worst person trying to "act" in the world, But as of the "chosen community" obviously a genius...
😏😏😏
Nicholas Hoult will beat him very easily.

Just cause an outcome is rare doesn't mean its favorable. And i feel like he is more of a crazy kid than a calculating villain.
Give me the 99%.
