☠ VENOM! ☠ Thread. (Showing 10/5) (1 Viewer)

So... Why does it look like Spider-Man if it never melded with Peter Parker? 

 
Tom Hardy looks outstanding as usual. Great casting for Eddie Brock. 

 
I know I'll probably go see it anyway, but looks pretty weak. The story they are going with (evil medical co CEO?) does not interest me at all. I don't need it to be a total reflection of the comic book origin, but they should have tried a little bit.

 
Venom definitely looks cool but pretty sure this movie is separate from the MCU.  It'd work way better with Spidey mixed in.  It looks like they're going with him melding with the symbiote in San Fran instead of after Peter gets rid of the suit in New York.  Do not like.

So much could be done.  A Maximum Carnage movie would be epic.

 
If it's MCU maybe they can incorporate with future Spider-Man movies. 

Pretty sure @AhrnCityPahnderwould love a three movie set-up to a final three movie confrontation between Spider-Man and Venom, Spider Man and Carnage and just Spider Man chillaxing after those first two movies.

 
Personally I am on board with any Spider-Man man movies as long as Marisa Tomei is playing Aunt May.

Jeez just typing that sentence sends me into a never ending loop of feeling old, creepy and turned on at the same time

 
How does one draw that distinction? Just curious because they used the Marvel header in the trailer.
It’s Sony owned. It’s still a marvel character but they sold the movie license to Sony. Movies like X-men and Deadpool aren’t in the MCU either.

That is no longer in effect. Sony made a deal with Marvel. That's how they got Spider-Man in Civil War and Iron Man in Homecoming.

X-Men is still an exclusive Fox property but Spider-Man, and related characters like Venom I assume, and Fantastic Four are now part of the MCU.

So not really. Siper-Man specifically was the deal, not the ancillary characters. Ultimately all the characters will be back under the MCU at some point in the future IMO. I think Sony will eventually make a deal for everything and Disney just bought Fox so they now have all of the mutants back, although it will be many years before MCU does anything with them per Feige

Too many moving parts for me to keep track of in real time.

 
To be fair....the Venom origin was pretty dumb and I'm fine with them coming up with a new one.

For those not in the know.  The symbiote the ends up becoming Venom first started in Marvel's Secret Wars when Spider-Man got it out of a machine that was supposed to replicate clothing......he thought he was getting a new outfit as the one he was wearing got trashed.

The black spidey costume was the winner of the fan poll iirc.  It wasn't revealed as a symbiote until later.

 
It was watchable.  I laughed a couple few times, wasn't expecting funny.

Little creepy/graphic/gross for my 10 year old.

My 11 year old thought it was great.  I thought It was pretty good.  He did get a little scared in the beginning.  Venom is a cool character.
