From a Zap2it interview with John Glover:
With his haughty demeanor and leonine mane of hair, Lionel lords over his business enterprises and his son with an iron fist. Glover sees some parallels on the big screen.
"I just saw the ad for 'Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' today," he says, "and it had Viggo Mortenson in a crown. I was thinking, Lionel should have a crown. He should also have a screening room and close himself in to watch 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy -- maybe have Lex come to talk to him once, kind of disturb him in the middle. There he'd be, sitting with a cape and a crown, just watching."
Oh, hee. That's great. Smart man.
That Magnificent Bastard!
If Lionel gets a crown, then Lex should get a tiara.
guess clark already had the robe ( cape)
And now Lionel's hair is reminding more and more of Aragorns. Maybe should start riding a horse around the office building.
It seemed weird to see Christopher Judge in the same sort of hat he wears all the time on SG. Does that symbol usually cover up some hideous birthmark or embarrassing tattoo? Or is there something in the actor's contract about not showing his forehead bare?

We've seen it bare on SG1.
I guess I haven't seen that episode. I've always seen him bejewelled or be-hatted, and it reminded me of Spock's headband in the movie with the whales.
We saw it bare in the ep he wrote, IIRC, where he's hallucinating while swapping symbiote with Braetac.
