- Delete the opening scene of Lex swindling the old lady. It's probably only in the film to give the actress who used to play Lois on the tv series a cameo. It's unnecessary and as Lois deduces, he probably tricked an old lady out of her money.

I think this was a way to introduce Lex Luthor and immediately show how evil he is. It is shown that he only cares about himself, not even about an old lovely, dying lady. He will do anything to get his way. That was imo the point of that scene.

But I agree. It's a bit vague what is really happening there as sudden opening. Removing it but probably be better.
