>>81253045>Like the part where he's entirely capable of getting his hands on the kryptonite to kill Superman and his company could easily weaponize it but he instead goads Batman into stealing it?And he makes said weapons.
He has SEVERAL plans.
Not one, he isnt the villian tht makes a plan and then says "welp that didnt work". He is using everything the can. How can that be hard to understand?
Plan A: Turn the world against Superman and Build Weapons for the State, make superman feel alienated
Plan b: Make Batman kill Superman, handle him the tools without him knowing, make superman feel alienated
Plan c: Superman kills Batman, turn the world against Superman
Plan d: Use Bioweapong to kill superman, make the world know you were right you need more weapons. Destroy Doomsday
yourself and be the hero.
Plan e: Use metahumans to destroy superman and or doomsday
Plan f: When everything fails contact Aliens, ally with them.
The movie direction was shit, but it's obvious Luthor didnt had a plan, he had several and almost all worked he failed at:
Sending the checks, thinking Superman and batman would kill each other, not counting they could ally. And thinking his mind could survive contact with the new gods.
