So I finally got to watch "Venom"...it was the least worst episode of the four I've seen. Only because it was a Venom episode did I decide to make it this far as the Doom episode was so offensive to me I wanted THAT to be my exit. In a way, I'm glad Venom was featured as early as it...it was (it...) so I don't have to watch anymore of this show beyond any reappearances of Venom it...sigh...itself.
Oh my god, is the animation here nice. I hate that great shows get the worst animation while this sh&^ gets quality animation.
This show is not doing the new(b) Nova any justice by having him be a dick. My hate for him alone is tantamount to my hate for this show.
White Tiger did NOTHING in this episode. NOT A THING. She didn't even get the chance to be overtaken by the symbiote. Are you kidding me? She didn't fight it during any of its body-jumping, she didn't Venom-out herself...why even have her show up? If Justice League proved anything, we don't need the entire team present for every episode. The writers had nothing for her to do, then she really should have been side-lined.
I really wish this episode had them fighting Flash-Venom. Having this thing jump from body to body was so damn gimmicky. The thing should have just stayed with Flash and the fight could have lasted most of the remainder of the episode until Spider-Man had to be overcome by it. My personal preference. I just hate how Marvel really treats the symbiote in all media now as just being a joyriding blob. Venom is not just the village bicycle. I like my Venom to be an established character, not some mindless sludge that absolutely anyone can carry around, no different from how I like my Doc Ock to be Otto, my Doom to be Von Doom, and my Catwoman to be Selina. If anyone can just be Venom, and even worse act exactly the same as everyone who becomes Venom, whats the point?
So, I guess this was the bes...no, the most tolerable episode so far (it took four episodes for an actual Spider-Man villain to appear in a Spider-Man show?) and while I would like to brag about how Venom of all characters was the one character that made this show so far watchable, that still isn't saying much about the quality of this show so far, considering that this show may have had the least amount of flaws, the flaws were still too much to take in. Plus, this version of Venom isn't all that great (as I've said) and not original (they just took Ultimate Carnage and made it this show's Venom).
I gave it four chances. I don't like it. And at this point, coming in here or either USM thread would just be pointless. I won't be watching anymore of this show, save for another Venom appearance (What can I say? Better or worse, I have to be on top of all Venom appearances), and I now see that I'm never going to like this show. To keep posting negatively about this show will just be trolling, so to whatever fans posting in these topics, be happy to know that these thread have just lost one negative critic. One...have fun with the other 90 posters who still can't stand this drivel.
