They could do it and did orginally. Raimi just thought it was silly the suit did a costume make over on Spidey for no other reason than it looked cool. He thought in his own logic (whether you hate it or not) it would simply darken Peter/Spidey's already present image and make it something menacing and sleek, but not "sexy." I'm under the impression he kept the Venom look relatively in tact once Brock got the symbiote, simply because he wanted to pelase the fans as that was the entire purpose of Venom in this film. Didn't quite work though did it, then?
What"s In His Eye What"s In His Eye!
there's a goblin in the lense
Guys look at the reflection in Spiderman's eye! It's Venom you can see the mask and eyes.
I dunno, it seemed kinda hard to distinguish if that's Venom in the lense.
Looks kind of like oil
so...anything in the lense?
looks more like a goblin to me.
I clearly see Venom's mask with the over exagerrated eyes. Clear to me as day. It's not the Goblin. Look again. It wouldn't be meant to be a reflection but more of what's inside the suit he's wearing.
ya looks like a goblin to me
Look at the eye. It's weird. What is it?
