Is Lex Luthor already attacking Batman vs. Superman?

Feels like Jesse Eisenberg already played Lex Luthor in The Social Network, right? (They certainly are taking the character in a different direction.) I mean, Amy Adams will just push Luthor over. There. Defeated. End credits.

What I seriously loathe is how this is turning into a lazy Justice League movie--with rumors of a Green Lantern showing up too. It's bad enough for Wonder Woman to interrupt the epic bromance between the World's Finest.  Marvel did one awesome thing: They created a massive network of superheroes that can cross-pollinate each other's movies and is now on the TV-verse. Their movies are also largely, well, good. Meanwhile DC keeps bombing--I'm looking at you, Jonah Hex and Green Lantern. Get outta here, you guys.

Also there's the problem that Snyder's canonical Man of Steel is supposed to be a "first contact" movie. There aren't supposed to be any other aliens here before the arrival of the Kryptonians--so what of the Green Lantern Corps.? (This is related to Batman siting out the activities depicted in Man of Steel.)
