    Seen it compared to Fan4stic and Cat Woman lol. I expected this movie to be terrible, but Goddamn. Those people must be exaggerating a little bit.

    Although... Hardy did get asked what his favorite part of the movie was, and his response was "the 40 minutes they cut from the film"

    Venom (October 5, 2018)

    Meh. Hardy is probably part of the problem. Every time the dude plays an American role he talks and acts like he has to take a fat piss but can’t figure out or decide where to do it.

    Meh look at the bright side. After this is a collosal failure then maybe they'll talk to Marvel and be like "Here, you seem to be the only ones able to make a superhero movie. Take half the profits and you do it!"

    This is the same Sony that wanted a Ghostbusters universe. They thought they could ride the tails of the Spider-Man movie to sweet gold.

    Marvel, in the mean time, is like "err you morons".

    Remember when WoW got huge and then all of a sudden every game developer was making an MMO and only a very very small percentage of them were actually successful?

    This Universe thing for movies is the exact same way except with an even smaller success rate.

    Though at least to Sony's credit, I think they had learned their lesson from Amazing spiderman 2 and at least tried to make Venom a stand alone film first- though why they would do that with Venom is far beyond me.

    Unbreakable series is a good example of how to do it- the same way Iron Man 1 did. Keep the movie it's own entity and then at the very end- "oh shit. Cool."

    This specific situation is a lot weirder though since Venom is a part of Spider-Man and Marvel made Spider-Man successfully integrated into the marvel universe. It's kind of like when your doing a group project in school and theres three of you who know what your doing and putting in all the work but theres a fourth person who you're glad to leave out but give credit to because hea a pretty stupid guy. But then as you're almost finished with your presentation the dumb guy just jumps in at the end and starts talking about tapioca pudding.

    They were doing good with a standalone, then executives panicked after they learned a rated R film could never crossover with Disney's version of Spider-Man, so Sony gutted the film of all R content to make it a PG-13 in the hope that if the film proves successful, a crossover is on the table. Sony has announced that Mobius will begin filming after Venom's release, but if this tanks....

    Nah lol. Just make a movie that doesn't suck. Venom always looked horrible and Sony is getting shit for it. But everyone loves how Spiderverse is shaping up to be.

    I think it'll have a good first weekend after that hype train Sony had going. RT plus word of mouth will kill it's second weekend I'm sure.

    If they approve a sequel, it'll be the Transformers of comic book movies.

    yikes, I was thinking it'd get more of a 55-60% on RT

    Guess they can pretty much count on Feige saying newp to any sort of joint universe.

    Jeremy Jahns saying it's not as bad as people make it out to be and not good as people wanted it to be. Seems about right.

    If you watched any of the trailers, the ending was spoiled.

    Spoiler: show
    When Eddie says "We are Venom," that's how it ends.


    Also, all of the rated R death scenes have been replaced with cutaways.
