Okay, I just want to say that I hope that this Venom film has a good director and writer. I can't tell you how much I want this film to be a success. I can understand why people are so against it, I don't blame them given the circumstances. But I think there is a chance it could work, there are many paths they can take, I just hope they choose the right one. I myself can't say if it will work or not, but I can hope. I don't know if it's just an original Venom film which has nothing to do with the Spider-Man movies, or if it follows the path of Venom from SM3.
You see, I liked the Venom in Spider-Man 3. They mixed and matched, they revamped and recreated. They gave Eddie Brock/Venom a reason. They gave the symbiote and interesting & simple origin. Venom was truly evil. I don't know where the story would branch off from there or how he even comes back, being vaporized and all.
Sometimes things that can be good turn out to be bad, but I am hoping that this film is good. Because that is all the hope I have for this film at this point in time.
