Well for the sake of the movie I think you just have to watch Superman and Superman 2 since Superman Returns is supposed to sort of take place after the events of those two films.

If you want to see the newest explanation of Luthor I suggest you pick up Lex Luthor: Man of Steel by Brian Azzarello. It basically breaks down why Lex is so dead set against stopping Superman. It's more or less because Lex feels an alien being seen as the ultimate human being is descructive to the Earth's people long term. In Lex's mind he is fighting for a noble cause and not for the sake of evil. Of course I don't expect the movie to play it up like that, but based on all the terrorism in the public eye lately, maybe they will.
