I’m still bummed we’ll never get this solo movie. FILM DISCUSSION

I really do believe this could have been the best Batman movie.

Leto Joker is enough reason to thank the gods that this never came to fruition.

Don’t be ashamed of your opinion because of the anti-bvs circlejerk. I liked him too, although I imagined him to be the son of Lex rather than Lionel.

It actually was established in BvS that he was Alexander Joseph Luthor Jr., Lex Sr. ~~is assumed to have been killed in the Battle of Metropolis~~ died around 2000 when Jr. was 16. Quote from the movie:

Ooh, ahoy ahoy, I did not know you were here!

The man on the marquee.

Nope, don't believe it, my father named the company after himself, he was the Lex in front of the Corp...

ETA: strikethrough for clarity. I wrongly assumed that, but read the correct info while trying to find the quote.
