My rant about Venom

My rant about Venom

Since the Venom movie is coming out soon I decide to talk about what I think of this character.

Eddie Brock/Venom is one of my favorite Spider-Man villains! I like him for the same reason I like Bane and that's because of his tragic past, his back story was so depressing that he considered committing suicide. Despite all his problems, he does his best to overcome them. Unlike Bane, Eddie has a reason to go after Spider-Man because he played a role in why his life is a mess. This is why the symbiote bonds with Eddie because they both want revenge on Spider-Man for different reasons.

Venom is also one of the most dangerous Spider-Man adversaries not because he knows Peter is Spider-Man it’s because he’s immune to Spider-Man spidey sense. Of course, I was annoyed with what was done with this character in Spider-Man 3 however I don’t blame the director for it. I think he sabotaged this character on purpose to get back at Sony for not letting him make the movie he wanted to make. I’m surprised to learn about how popular he is in the 90’s. He not only he appeared in other Marvel comics he has his own comic book series, why!?! What about the other Spider-Man villains who became anti-heroes like Sandman? ( Well sandman is too powerful to be a Spider-Man villain in my opinion, so I kind of answer my own question.) I can’t believe that there are other symbiote characters besides Carnage.

Due to Venom’s popularity, he has the same problem I have with the Joker as far as him overshadowing the other baddie. Would Spider-Man fans please explain to me why you like Carnage? All he does is cause death and destruction with no rhyme or reason. As much as I want to see Eddie Brock/Venom done right on screen I want the Sony or Marvel studios to wait until his popularity dies out. It’s sad that this fan base doesn’t want to see any other Spider-Man villain. I would like to see Mysterio and Kraven the Hunter because both of them can give Spider-Man a run for his money.

As far as the Venom movie goes I have no interest in watching that movie because the trailers didn’t sell me, I might check it out when it comes out on Blu-Ray. I wouldn’t mind seeing a Venom movie if the studios adapt the anti-venom story.
