Lex Luther

To continue our super hero theme today I suppose. The star of Breaking Bad, Bryan Cranston, has been cast (or so rumor has it) as Lex Luther in the next Superman movie.

I applaud the casting. He will make a perfect Lex.

However, I really dislike that villain. Luther should always be a shadowy figure in the background because fighting him either involves some stupid geologic/time stopping plot that Lex machinates (new word) with his money and brilliance or the military industrial complex super weaponized dudes. Both themes are very old and very tired.

Lex equals subtly.

But I loved Man of Steel and leave it in Snyder's capable hands.
