Sano: great suggestion on how to fix Venom.
I think they were trying to mirror Ultimate Spidey by choosing a smaller guy to be Venom. I have to admit the resemblance in stature and face between Topher & Toby felt forced like they were trying to show how Venom was like the exact opposite of Spider-Man but behind the mask was more or less the same guy. It didn’t work out.
The Venom in Spider-Man 3 was called Eddie Brock Jr. All they have to do is hire a big guy and say it was his father, AKA Eddie Brock Sr. and he can be the same Eddie that Robinson was talking about in the first movie. Anyway Eddie Sr. would get the remaining bits of the symbiote left on the ground after Spidey 3 and be his father out for revenge.
Not for Spider-Man 4 though, and I really liked Spider-Man 3 myself. Though Raimi does not care for the character Venom. All of what I said above should be done in Venom’s own movie where they can find someone who likes the character and can do him justice.
Oh and get Avi Arad away from a Venom movie. He also didn’t care about the character much and was all for a smaller Venom.
Raimi likes the classic Spidey villains, let him play with those. You can have fun with newer bad guys like Carnage, Morlun and so on in the Venom movie franchise, even have Tobey cameo here and there.
Lets not and say we did
…Oh god, do we really want to see “Torment” adapted for the fourth movie?
i agree with a bigger dude. i mean topher grace is a small dude. i dunno who it could be though.
IF only we could scrap the whole bloody movie. Spider-Man 3 sucked big time.
