Venom: The Last Dance (Kelly Marcel, October 25, 2024) Movie • Page 5

This must a Megan Thee Stallion variant. Unless She Hulk and Venom are 1 degree separated? The multiverse, am I right?

 

Not surprised

 

yeah it's getting hammered (though the other two weren't exactly raved about). i liked what i saw, albeit with caveats. the stuff with juno temple and chiwetel ejiofor is kind of a waste, and there's times in hindsight where some might be able to tell this was made amidst the strike last year. plus a very weird montage. but there's still plenty of eddie/venom stuff that was always the highlight of the trilogy, and i'd say that yet again is worth seeing, at least with something like a-list. i definitely don't think it's as terrible as the reviews are saying, i'm sure of that

 

i cannot overstate how little i care about reviews for a venom movie

 

I was hoping for an awards push but I think that's out of the cards

 

I don’t think anyone expected this film to get good reviews lol we just want to get some good symbiote action

 

one other thing: if you're hoping to get a ton of knull, then, uh... sorry...

 

At this point, I’m mostly going for the Venom cord organizer

 

IGN said "it's time for the Venom horse to be sent to the glue factory”

 

you could say the same about ign

 

Well one cannot deny that is certainly a movie that is almost two hours and features a montage set to Maroon 5 and credits that play that overplayed Morgan Wallen/Posty song. What an experience.

 

I probably won’t see this until Sunday. Alas.

Any thoughts on what the credit scenes mean for the future of The Sony Universe of Marvel Characters?

 

in all fairness, about 25 minutes of that 1:50 runtime is the credits

 

is this @Tim

 

Dani Rojas and Keeley never interacting was hilarious
the whole movie should have been the part where it became Gremlins 2 and there was a sexy lady symbioteDan Deacon scoring this is wild

 

If they made a Morbius, Madame Web, Venom and Kraven team-up movie I'd honestly want to see that more than any MCU movie

 

For the lulz?

 

Always

 

I was pumped when the opening (after a Knull lore dump) was literally the NWH credit scene, and then when he goes back to his earth, it’s the same bar & bartender but shittier, to which Venom says, this is better! And acts dismissive towards the multiverse. I was like, girl, same.

…unfortunately, the movie as a whole was a step down after the concentrated joy of Let There Be Carnage. Still fun at times, but definitely not quite what I hoped for. Alas.

Shoutout to Juno Temple as Dr Teddy Payne, aka Agony. The backstory with her brother and the lightning was truly baffling, and I choose to believe she and the Christmas lady were a couple, and… yeah, idk, that speedy goo thing at the end without resolution was nonsense, lol. Put her on the Sinister Six and have her battle Knull in a movie only I will watch.

Oh, and that conspiracy alien family was pretty amusing.

 

As much as I do like self contained, not tied to the MCU stories… I gotta say I’m a little tired of seeing these Spider-Man villain movies without any Spider-Man. I liked this movie well enough, I was entertained by Venom as a trilogy but dammit I want to see him fight spidey

 

Ok but to be fair, there have been over 200 issues of solo Venom in the comics, many very successful, many without Spidey, lol. This isn’t an off the wall pitch like Kraven. I’ll have fun when there’s a movie with some version of both characters someday, but that’s not what makes or breaks Venom.

I do wonder what the next step is. Personally, I think it’s most likely that this movie was made with the intention of leading to a Sinister Six with Knull as the villain. But, do they have enough gas to get there? Of course not, lol. Depending on what the plans are for Doomsday and Secret Wars, maybe that Spider-Man movie between them could have these Venom threads incorporated into a Battleworld? If that’s the angle Marvel Studios is taking.

(Also funny that, like… there’s presumably still the bit of goo left in the “MCU” after NWH. In addition to the sample left here.)

 

Are they not the same sample?
