No Way Home Spider-Man: No Way Home General News & Discussion Thread (TAG SPOILERS)

Topher ain't in it cause they have plans for a different Venom lol

 

[The Infernal]

I wouldn't say no to a Venom multiverse film where Topher returned in a cameo.

Yeah whereas Spidey is big enough to have multiples running around without people getting confused, I think they want to avoid multiples of his villains. With Dock Ock and the others that are coming back, they've basically decided to make those versions the de facto versions in this continuity, at least for the time being. Whereas with Venom they probably still haven't worked out whether they'll bring in the Tom Hardy version or make a brand new version or what.

Spider-Man: No Way Home Merch Makes Changes to Black & Gold Suit

That's much better. The red on the forearms seemed jarring and out of place. It's possible the earlier pics were just prototype stuff and not the final product/intention.

to hell with Topher Grace as Eddie / Venom

 

[Drizzle]

I don't think anyone was a fan of Topher Grace's Venom but I do appreciate his sense of humor about the whole thing with that Reddit post.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

Let's leave Topher's Venom in the trash where it belongs.

what reddit post?

[XtremelyBaneful]

oh. so he's definitely just trolling.

 

[Arachnerd]

Well yeah, that was always the obvious indication.

well it's obvious after seeing it. I didn't know about the reddit post beforehand.

Tomei's May has really been more of a punchline ("LOL Peter's aunt is hot!").

It's strange how often people like to say this despite clearly not being true.

It's strange how often people like to say this despite clearly not being true.

Tony to Peter in Civil War: "It's hard to believe she's anyone's aunt." later on he makes the comment about Peter having an "unusually attractive aunt"
Tony in Peter's video at the beginning of Homecoming: "Hey Aunt May, how are you doing? What are you wearing? Something skimpy, I hope!"
Bodega Owner in Homecoming: "His aunt is a beautiful Italian woman!"
Also the scene where Peter and May are in the Thai restaurant and the waiter gives her the free meal because he finds her attractive.

I was kind of exaggerating about her being a punchline but that's four instances right there. Not to mention all she basically did in Far From Home was flirt with Happy.

 

[Arachnerd]

Tomei hasn't had much to work with characterization wise which is definitely understandable criticism.

I'm very curious to see that scene with May being interrogated though. Hope she has more material to work with this time around, even if it isn't that much more than the previous movies.

 

[CadeSkywalker28]

I don't expect too many changes, and in fact I expect everything everyone is complaining about, including the CGI on Tobey and Andrew's outfits.

 

[Da-Scribe]

I prefer Hardy's Brock and Topher's Venom. Don't @ me.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

It’s funny because both actors have qualities that I’d like to see in the ideal live action Eddie Brock. Hardy has the imposing physical nature down and Topher played a great slimeball that you’d expect from the character.

neither of them really did it for me, but there are solid qualities in both.

Not to mention the lingering shot of her ass in FFH. The joke has always been "guys what if Aunt May was hot??"

With that said, I do think she had good scenes in Homecoming.

I feel like either of them could take from the other and turn in a much better performance overall. Like, I've seen Topher when he's shredded and I've seen Tom actually act.

no, you were on point to say that her attractiveness is a punchline in this franchise. The MCU version of Aunt May really ruined the character in my opinion

 

[Spidey_62]

Everybody debating their favorite live action Eddie Brock when I'm still waiting here to see the RC Everbeck Eddie Brock scenes from SM 2002 unearthed from Sony's vaults. He had a few scenes with JJJ, even one where he shoved Peter.

It bothers me too. It was funny in Civil War when they first introduced her, but three unfunny jokes about that in Homecoming was just ridiculous. Like we get it, can we move past that?

I feel like the only thing I know about this May is that she's hot and lots of guys hit on her.

These young guys forget that back in the Spider-Man 3 hype days topher venom was all the rage and we couldn’t wait for news or a glimpse of his venom. Yes he wasn’t perfect but the hype for topher venom was on par with endgame . I was there.
