QWhy does Lex Luthor surround himself with idiots?
AThe Lex Luthor portrayed by Gene Hackman is not exactly the same Lex Luthor from the comics. Gene's Lex Luthor is really a caricature similar to an evil/eccentric Donald Trump. He surely surrounds himself with idiots only to accentuate his intellegence and boost his ego.
QWhat are the differences between the common DVD/BD-Version and the German VHS Version?
ADespite the fact that 40 minutes of footage were cut out before the movie was released, there still exist two different versions of the movie. In the US version, two scenes were not shown that are included on the German VHS release. However, all later DVD and Blu-ray releases used the shorter US Master, thus the two scenes are missing as well. According to IMDB the longer version is a special TV version which was made for American TV channels. This wouldn't be an unusual thing, since several movies had a longer TV version so that the channels could air more commercials. The two scenes that used to be in the German version are also included in the deleted scenes section of the DVD. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
