I've only seen Eisenberg in Zombieland and that's a comedy so I don't really have any thoughts on it. He seems a bit young for the role but maybe he can pull it off.

I have seen Now You See Me and Social Network aswell. I don't think he is the right one for the role

I won't knock any casting until the movie is out. No one thought Heath Ledger was right for the Joker either.

Yep, really not sure what to expect. I liked Man of Steel so I do hope it's decent at least. I look forward to finding out if the movie will be crap, or maybe Affleck/Eisenberg/etc were really impressive during the casting.

I don't really think it is a good choice. We will see though.

Fortune often favors the bold. While I am unsure as to whether the film will succeed(critically, we all know it'll rake in big $$$), I'm positive all involved believe it's something special. Or else they wouldn't be throwing the proverbial kitchen sink into the film. I think with the right tone, JE can be a very convincing megalomaniac out for supreme power. I am curious to see if they go the Amazing Spider Man 2 route with multiple villains. If it's just Lex against Supes and Bats, I call bomb.
