Looks like its time to dive on this: one thing what bothers me a lot about the white boards is Lex Luthor motivations for seeking the mother boxes and the anti-life equations. [+] #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

My problem was: why? Why Luthor wants the Anti-Life? Why Luthor would give it to Darkseid? It just doesnt make sense. Lex would NEVER bend for a God, he hates deities figures. Everything he do on BvS is about that. [+] #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

But then, i remember THAT speech from 'Batman v Superman': Lex Luthor talking about Prometheus. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

And i defend that maybe can be the most important line from Lex in the Snyderverse, because it could be a clue for his all journey thought the saga. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

Pay attention when he says: "Prometheus ruin the plans of the Gods to destroy manking and got lighted up because of that". And how he does that? Stealing Fire (power/tech) from the Gods. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

What if 'Communion' isn't about Lex and Steppenwolf making a deal, but about Lex knowing about the New Gods trying to conquest Earth? As the ship told the story of Steppenwolf for him? #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

Because, seen on THAT context, Lex running to get the Motherboxes and finding the Anti-Life equation makes all the sense of the world. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

He maybe know they are "change machines", but doesn't know how to operate them, or want operate them to kill the League somehow. Maybe in the attempt of operate them, by accident he makes Darkseid invasion easier for him. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

And by that Darkseid came, stole the Anti-Life equation from Luthor, and then used the info Lex gave by force (because the influence of the Anti-life) he corrupts Superman by killing Lois Lane. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

Also makes all the sense of the world he gathers the Injustice League if his intention to not just been the responsable for defeat the New Gods, but be assure that the Justice League will not stop nothing he have plan to that. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

And with that, keep the richest of the ironies of Lex dies exactly because his most powerful tool, his mind, betrays him, and him dies by the raw power of a out-of-control Superman. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

We dont know if Lex would be back to ZSJL 3, or even if Snyder have a good reason for Lex and Darkseid have a pattenership. isn't the first time he have a wild idea and make it work, even on the white boards (see: Bruce Kent). #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

I remember that Zack told somewhere that Darkseid would give to him his battle armor, but we also dont know how much of that has changed, or if have changed at all. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse

But knowing Zack doesnt show nothing for free, having Luthor gather a team to kill 2 different types of Gods sounds exciting AF. And deserve to be shown. #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #RestoreTheSnyderverse
