The Amazing Spider-Man Wouldn't Dane have made a better Eddie Brock?

[Picard Sisko]

Dane is perfect for Harry IMO.

 

[Thwip!]

Especially drug addict addict Harry, the one who'll take a dark turn

 

[Spiderdevil]

Tom Hardy for Eddie Brock. Dane isn't big enough.

Neither is Hardy,he is shorter than Garfield

 

[Spiderdevil]

Anyone can add muscle to play as Eddie Brock. In S-M 3's case, Topher should've added more, but even then, he wasn't good enough to act as Eddie Brock.

Well he was an ordinary photographer so I dont see how adding muscle would be realistic

 

[Spiderdevil]

About making Brock muscular or a regular guy depends on the route they are taking

In the comics he was a depressed man and look his frustation out gyming and such,hence he was a muscular guy
If they dont go that route,there isnt a reason to make him Bane-type muscular,just average/slightly above average built and be taller than Spider-man or atleast the same height

Realistic?

A photographer can't have a hobby or interest in working out?

 

[Picard Sisko]

I think we actually both agree on something here. I don't understand why being a photographer cancels out the possibility of working out? Why would his profession even be relevant, Spiderdevil?

 

[Anno_Domini]

Hell, I have a dumb desk job but I still work out.

Plus, if anything, if Eddie Brock ever had this desperate backstory, working out could be this outlet for Eddie. Without the symbiote, Eddie could have this rage within him that he vents out through exercising and with the symbiote, he now has power that only amplifies this rage which is perfect for the symbiote itself.

IMO Dane is spot on casting for Harry.

They can but whats wrong in him not bulking up?

I heard he gained something like 6-8 kilos of muscle or something.He looked huge when he became the Venom so I dont see where is the problem

You can compare his role to Tom Hardy's

Ah I wrote that wrongly
What I meant is,Eddy in the comics had a thing for gyms and worked out which is why he was huge even pre-venom,I dont see whats wrong if a version of Eddy Brock does not work out and is normal looking.Its different from Bane since he is supposed to have a built

Thats bacisically his story from the comics

Raimi didnt portray him like that so imo it was fine him not being too much muscular.There was actually no time for his back story in SM3

 

[Lantern Venom]

NO NO and (BLEEP!) NO.

Audiences want the 616 Venom. That means a backstory that covers years of disappointment leading to insanity. That means an actor who physically makes Peter look like a kid. That means the slobber, the tongue, and referring to himself as "we".

Any actor who looks like he could still be in high school, ala Blowpher, need not apply. Eddie is a big, scary man (190lbs is NOT big) who became a big,scary monster. That's what we want.

 

[A Necessary Evil]

No Eddie Brock.
No Venom.

Please god no Venom.

I don't like any of the cast (except for the returning players) already.

 

[Ken-Kaniff]

No way, how did you even came up with this idea? He looks like a bookworm teenager!

Jensen Ackles as Eddie Brock would be porn (and I'm not gay), but I doubt he'll get the part, it's never someone we think about. Whoever it will be, I hope it will fit the part... assuming he'll even be introduced ofc.

 

[Anno_Domini]

Jensen Ackles as Eddie Brock would be porn?

I don't get it....

 

[NewYorkSpider]

Though, if this series doesn't have Venom (and I really think it wont) does it need Eddie Brock?

No. It doesn't. They don't even need to mention his name either. I'm fine for him being in the next trilogy. I hope they introduce him in the first movie and build his character up in the 1st and 2nd movies. Then unleash Venom in the 3rd.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I don't want even the slightest mention of Eddie or the ooze in this series

IMO Dane is spot on casting for Harry.

Especially after seeing his part in Chronicle

 

[Ken-Kaniff]

Jensen Ackles as Eddie Brock would be porn?

I don't get it....

Would be good dude, let's stick to that shall we?

I think this Dane actor looks the part of Harry idk why, it does remind me of him somehow. Remains to be seen how hes gonna act.

 

[Lantern Venom]

How do we know there will be another trilogy? That would mean comic book adaptations would have to sustain their current popularity for many years to come. Even with a character as popular as Spidey, that isn't a given.
