Would it have been better if Sivana was a dwarf like in the comics?

Would have been nice to have an actual Mad Genius for a change. We get Luthors who are basically con-artists using Space Crystals, meteors and alien bacta tanks but no real genius, now we have a Luthor look-alike empowered with demon magic.

I never really thought about it but you’re right. He was just playing Luthor. You’d think Snyder or someone would’ve stepped in and forced them to change it.

He played movie Luthor, who is nothing like comic Luthor really. Movie Luthor never comes across as the smartest guy on the planet, he comes off as an oddball criminal who stumbles onto some alien shit.

He should have done that thing where he uses math to walk through walls

Except in Shazam! he stumbles onto some Wizard shit, but it's the same thing.

Or really anything cool at all.

No he’s pretty much playing comic book Luthor. He’s a bald billionaire who’s the head of a corporation with a squeaky clean public image that’s jealous of a superhero and wants to steal his powers. The only difference is I don’t think Luthor has daddy issues in the comics.

Luthor isn't simply "Le Evil Rich guy".
He doesn't even have to be super-rich. He IS supposed to be the greatest, most diabolical mind on the planet, the guy who if he used his incredible genius for good could change the world. He's not meant to be some suit he trips over some alien artifact and decides to grow an island with it or nuke the west coast for property.

Or Mark Strong as some kind of IBAC or SABBAC character.
I still liked it but it was missing a scene where he just goes "Simple is best" and tries to shank Billy.

Wait…if his name is now Shazam how does he tell people his name w/o turning back into Billy?

>if his name is now Shazam how does he tell people his name
He's not called Shazam. It's a running gag in the film where they keep going through names

According to the credits the characters actually name is Shazam though

How does Captain Marvel Junior tell people HIS name?

Make him short, but not dwarf-tier short because nobody finds those intimidating. Also add what said.

I thought Sivana was just old-man-short, I didn't realize he has dwarfism.

What’s his name now btw? Shazam Jr?

I dunno, I didn't even watch the film. It's just DC's version of Captain Marvel--worse yet, looking like it's Geoff Johns' version of him.

God, what is that retard's obsession with turning things into rainbows? Like, it at least made some sense with the Lantern Corps, but it's just needless fluff for the Marvel Family.

You're misremembering the film, Sivana isn't a CEO nor is he well known or liked by the public. His father is a CEO and who's left him off the board for the company because he blames him for the accident that paralyzed him from the waist down.

His dad does try to offer him the company in exchange for sparing his life but Thad tells him that what he has isn't "true power" and let's him get literally consumed by Greed, it's like symbolism and shit

Though another strange connection to Luthor is that the dad is played by Mark Strong, who also played Lex's father Lionel on Smallville.

All of them are just called 'Shazam.' If you think that's confusing it's just because it is. Then again there's 8 "Green Lanterns" on Earth so it could be worse.

>Cast Billy Zane
>Base his character off of Lex Luthor: Man of Steel, Superman for All Seasons, All Star Superman, and Superman #164

Why can't we get this instead of Evil Real Estate Agent or Zucc Landis?

Not only a dwarf, but a bona fide mad scientist genius family man with four kids.
