    I was cruising apple trailers today, and lo and behold! The Spiderman 3 Teaser is out! So I watched it, and t'was confirmed that the movie IS about Venom. The black suit in the poster really is the suit- Venom.

    So, I was wondering what you fine gentlemen (and lovely ladies) thought about the movie, and speculaton behold.

    I agree that it is time Venom was in a movie and it should be interesting to see if they do it well. we can live in hope.

    I dunno, I was never a big fan of Venom -- in the comic books or in the cartoons.

    meh, oh well.

    I liked him as i have said, i am wary of the way they will portray it though, i would very much like to see the camelion (sp?) in a film. That would be rather cool if done well.

    In the comic books the first go around he was great, then they added Carnage once Venom got softer, then once they started doing the whole clone thing I ignored it from then on.

    Regardless, I think they'll fuck it up, Venom just doesn't translate well onscreen no matter what they do, the guy's a massive monster with a massive jaw and he talks about eating people... they're not going to do it justice

    From what I last heard Topher Grace (Thats 70's show) was going to be Eddie Brock/Venom...

    He ain't exactly how I would picture Eddie Brock...since eddie is supposed to be 6'3 and 260 ibs but he might surprise.

    Yeah, I really can't picture the guy that played Eric Forman to be anything like Venom. They're going to screw it up.

    Awww...no! I like Topher Grace, but he can't possibly do justice to the Eddie Brock role. Even if he buffed up to be the same build as Tobey Maguire...he still wouldn't look anything like the massive dude who we saw in the comics.

    This is the official site - link - you can find the trailer there, along with some other stuff.

    Venom doesn't look too bad, imo, but nothing like he does in the comics. I thought the trailer was too short to get any real feeling about the movie, but it doesn't look REALLY bad.

    Having watched the trailer, i think the symbiote suit looks really sweet, just wanna see what Venom actually looks like, but seeing as they where gonna be bringing out 3 this year, but left it till next for the CGI, they should do a decent enough job

    I think it's when the suit starts corrupting him that he gets all darkish.. unfortunatley on Seabiscuit it just makes him look gayer.

    Venom was always my favourite villain when I was a little kid. He still is now that I'm a big kid.
