Marvel’s Spider-Man 2: Is Venom a Villain or Playable Antihero?

New DVD release, , , , ,
As if the recent PlayStation showcase couldn’t have just shown us the Star Wars: KOTOR remake and God of War: Ragnarok trailer and called it a day, Sony had to go one step further and give us an early glimpse at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 that ended with a brief look at what figures to be one of the game’s biggest new characters, Venom. Now, some are already suggesting that Venom is the one narrating that new trailer, but based on the accent and dialog, it seems more likely that’s actually an unseen Kraven the Hunter. Besides, there’s a voice change…

New DVD release, , , , ,
Folks, we live in interesting times. We just received a trailer for Venom: Let There Be Carnage, the sequel to the surprise 2018 hit Venom, starring Tom Hardy, Tom Hardy, and a whole lot of people who weren’t trying nearly as hard as Tom Hardy. This sequel brings in Woody Harrelson as Broadway star Carnage about 30 years after his comic book debut. Seriously, though. Carnage appeared in a Broadway musical ten years before he got to be in the movies. I’ll never get over that. If you haven’t watched the crazy trailer yet, press pause on your Green Jelly…

Did the Venom 2 Trailer Confirm That the Movie Is Not in the MCU?

New DVD release, , ,
The just-released debut trailer for sequel Venom: Let There Be Carnage will obviously leave fans fawning over the intense unveiling of Marvel Comics’ crimson symbiote serial killer, Carnage. However, it also happens to tease imagery that could end up becoming a consequential Easter egg for the canonical place of the upcoming film—and its 2018 predecessor—in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and, thusly, any presumed connection it might have had to Spider-Man. The Venom: Let There Be Carnage trailer shows a police detective named Mulligan, played by Stephen Graham (Greyhound, Line of Duty), reading a paper that should be instantly recognizable even…

New DVD release, , , ,
You’re never alone with an alien symbiote. Just ask Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy), whose body-roomie Venom is almost helpful in the kitchen in the new Venom: Let There Be Carnage trailer. But his counterpart Cletus Kasady (Woody Harrelson) only sees red, and is on a mission to wreak carnage. Meanwhile, he writer of the song in the Venom 2 trailer only wanted to bring some bittersweet pandemonium. Harry Nilsson’s song “One” appeared on his 1968 album Aerial Ballet.

When Spider-Man Becomes Venom

New DVD release, ,
If being Venom was like being in the Beatles, then Peter Parker would be Pete Best. His stretch of time in the late-80s wearing his living, black costume is a staple of his history. Before it turned Eddie Brock into a box office giant, the symbiote made for a badass variant look for Spider-Man that still holds up to this day. It’s the ultimate story of how we can lose ourselves to power, even if a loved one beat you over the head with lessons about responsibility. Over the years, Spider-Man did rejoin with the symbiote a few times, usually…

New Venom Event Trailer Revealed by Marvel

New DVD release, , , ,
For the last couple years, Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman have been putting together a pretty crazy and frankly must-read Venom ongoing series. Venom has a rather messy narrative history full of retcons and ideas that don’t sync well, so during his run, Cates has decided to cut into Venom lore like a surgeon with a chainsaw. Certain aspects of Venom’s past have been written out, like the idea that Eddie Brock had cancer or even a sister. Brian Michael Bendis’ attempt to rewrite the symbiote species as some kind of gooey cosmic knight armor created to protect the universe…
