This has to be intentional.
There's just no way it's not.

Because he's an amazing actor?
He played a really good billionaire psychopath in Social Network I guess.

I know right? IT's almost as if they auditioned people and found the best person they thought for the role, instead of just doing what we do and casting anyone who's ever been bald in a movie before.

Lex should have been played by Billy Zane. I've been saying it in fan casting threads for years.
Modern rich folk are tech successes look like him. It's more believable to society today that he would be top rather than some rich old guy.

He is the same age as Henry Cavill.

I'm two steps ahead of you. All Momoa did in GoT is speak broken english, how's he going to speak Atlantean?

I'm still skeptical about him as lex. I do agree he is a great actor.. I just dont see him bald... and being much of a threat.

The WW costume gives me high hopes that Momoa's Aquaman will have some similarly badass looking battle type armor.

He's gonna work out just great. Keep in mind we're gonna get a Snyderverse Lee here.
It's gonna be something new, but same essence.

Goddamn Hobbit.

I'm really worried he's going to end up being the weak link in the movie. It's just impossible for me to picture him as Luthor. As someone who is capable of standing in front of Supes/Bats/WW and not look ridiculous.
I'm worried, but I'm completely open to being proven wrong and him owning the role.

Wonder if we will get a hi res of that Batman poster.

No AquaMomoa?

Lex isn't a threat because he's physically impressive compared to Superman. Making him younger and skinny is actually interesting to me. As always i'll withhold judgement til the footage rolls, but its reassuring to me that they're at least casting unconventionally.

Eisenberg will be great, so will momoa ( though Ragnar from Vikings would have been more amazing)
It's gadot I'm mad skeptical about.

Yeah I'm sure it was a budget issue that forced them to case Jesse Eisenberg rather than someone like, say, Billy Zane, who would probably work for a bag of Doritos.

why are you guys waiting for the Hobbit panel to end?
So that they could upload the teaser?

They think the rock is gonna come up on stage and electrify the crowd
Give the hobbit another hour. Beats hearing about into the storm. Which is next up

Why does he wear the mask!?

How are you guys watching this?
Hope that something else(possibly Rock related) is shown.
I guess they're ending on the Hobbit. No more news you guys. :/
I'm expecting Aquaman to look like a medieval knight, though with fairly light armor so it's believable he can swim in it.
We probably won't get Cyborg until JLA proper.

welp, why did rock tease so close to comic con.

I cant believe you guys are being so short sighted when it comes to Eisenberg as Lex.
Because WB don't know WTF they're doing. That's been the case ever since Green Lantern.

There was.
@jarrettconaway: The Mad Max Fury Road footage just shown in Hall H at #ComicCon was indescribable. Absolutely beautiful madness. Blood. Oil. Gasoline. 2015.
@slashfilm: Mad Max Fury Road looks like the next level of the evolution of whats possible in a cinematic car chase sequence. amazing. #ComicCon
@empiremagazine: Mad Max: Fury Road looks astonishing. Vehicular mayhem on a scale we've never seen before. It's like the best Top Gear special ever made.
Yah there was, should be up after the panel I assume.
There was footage for it.

I don't want tech guru Lex. Lex is the guy at the table who has the most experience, knows every angle, and handles his affairs in a shrewd business manor. I get how you can slot Eisenberg in there to make it more contemporary, but for me he'll be Lex in name only. BAD CAST
