Venom 3
 

So the solo writer of Venom 2 is both writing and directing it.

It's just going to be more garbage by untalented people.

They just keep coming!

I mean....... I enjoyed both of them......

Venom 3 casts someone other than Spider-Man.

Is this really something a lot of people are looking forward to? I don't get it. I got it in the 90s. Venom is like a phenom, an amazing Spider-Man villain, can't wait to see him mess with Spider-Man on the big screen, etc.. Now we'll have like 3 Venom movies over 7 or so years with not even one Spider-Man appearance and he doesn't even figure into the narrative at all. Also, the existence of this trilogy means the MCU in their super hairy deal with Sony is going to be super reluctant to introduce a NEW Venom so close in proximity to all of this weird side universe stuff. It just seems like everybody loses here. I think Amy Pascal at Sony figured that Tom Hardy as Venom would be a big carrot to dangle in front of Feige and he basically just told her to f*** off. Which he should say. But... here we are. Many years into a Holland Spider-Man MCU and no trace of Venom.

I think Venom is like Gambit - a purely thing from the 90s - all radical edgy and extreme.
But brought outside of this era, there is little meat on the bone. So maybe launching standalone series with him was not such a bad idea. Its just it is extremely toned down and bland, even compared to MCU generic output of later years.

Venom is my favorite Spider-Man villain, but I confess that he is limited. Eddie Brock hates Spider-Man. He is a bully who wants vengeance against a single individual. To become an anti-heto after a definitive battle with Spider-Man is the best course of action and to limit use afterwards. Eddie Brock's story was told by ASM#375.Also,I don't see anyone else as Venom. Venom is Eddie Brock. Carnage is what Venom could have been if his popularity had not kept him from being a merciless monster.

It’s gotta be better than whatever Disney craps out, IMO

I dunno. I don't hate Venom 1 or 2 but they seem weaker to me than even like the weakest MCU movies. I mean, I'd probably rather watch them than Love & Thunder again, but that's about it.

If previous movies are anything to go buy it won't.
It will be the same.

It's called "The Last Dance." And still no trace of Spider-Man, of course.

Venom: The Last Dance Will be Final Venom Movie

And by final, do they mean "we don't intend to make more and feel like ending it" or "we don't expect it'll earn enough to make more, so we'll give it an ending"? Because those can lead to very different outcomes for the future.

It means that Tom Hardy wouldn't be cheapening his stock any more than he already has by signing onto a Part 4 of something. He clearly just really loves playing the character, even if these are nothing movies that amount to nothing.

Say what you will, but I liked the movies so I'm looking forward to the third one.

Pure garbage. Again, I get that Hardy clearly has some personal affinity for the role but this feels like a late 90s "Edgy" movie within an empty PG-13 plastic shell. And no Spider-Man.

If they cast Jennifer Lopez as a character in this movie, it will be the icing on the cake to make this movie worse than what it is. LMAO! They should give up and let this thing die.

A bit of that trailer shows the military acquiring the piece of the Venom symbiote left behind in the MCU, but how'd they cross dimensions to find it?

So basically the villain is a..... what? Generic Venom-Spider-Monster? Eh, I don't even care. These movies suck but aren't unwatchable and make for good background noise I suppose.

If it's truly "The Last Dance," then it's probably a horned bovine monster. If not that, then probably one or two rich guys named "Jerry."
