I have no idea where Venom fits in with the spider-flicks at this point, but I caught it on a plane last night and it was about what I expected- the Marvel movie it reminded me most of was Blade. Cheap, kind of fun, mostly silly, with a relentlessly, needlessly grim n gritty attitude. The best part was Venom offering his rationale for siding with Brock by saying "on my planet I'm kind of a loser".

it’s a weird weird movie... rote plot, clumsy script, and then batshit moments like that that make it not an entirely wasted 90 minutes

I’m still laughing at the Eminem song that played over the credits

that was hilarious- he gets his own theme song!

I left the theater as the song started because my first thought was “I can’t do this right now”

Venom is fun, esp if you pirate it.

Venom was totally fun. I'm surprised at the backlash against it when Ant Man gets so much praise; they were similar to me in that they didn't take themselves seriously at all (and are both set in SF). It doesn't directly link into any of the Spiderman movies in existence.

Venom was dull as dishsoap after the first 40 minutes

i couldn't read the credits to see if they gave McFarland co-creator credit for the character

we're believing anything this mysterio guy says? seems sketchy
― mh, Monday, 6 May 2019 17:06 (four years ago) link
it's mysterio so might be probably lying. this is a character that started out as a green alien who got retconned into being an fx wizard pretending to be an alien.

Of course I was just about to post the same thing. Take every Mysterio-related plot beat with a grain of salt.

I doubt they'd take this direction verbatim, but the last paragraph on the Ultimate Marvel version of the character sets up a possibility:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mysterio#Ultimate_Marvel
― mh, Monday, 6 May 2019 17:19 (four years ago) link
as long as Sony's got the license for Spider-Man they're going to milk as much out of other characters as they can without being burdened (or enabled, depending on the input) by the Disney Marvel stuff imo
― mh, Monday, 6 May 2019 17:20 (four years ago) link
Unrelated but I scrolled up the Wikipedia page (because iirc Mysterio was replaced by his Ultimate version in the comics and...now doesn't even exist?) and saw this really fun passage
Francis Klum, a mutant with the ability to teleport, was sexually abused by his older brother Garrison (Mr. Brownstone) and forced to use his powers to assist Garrison's illegal activity as a heroin dealer. When Garrison dosed the Black Cat with heroin and attempted to rape her, Francis decided to stop his brother's cruelty for good, teleporting within and blowing up Garrison's body.[59]
and immediately wondered whether it came from that fucking Kevin Smith Spider-Man/Black Cat miniseries I never read and, well, sure enough. Good times!

go watch spider-verse, bg
I have no idea how throwing that character into the MCU would be a net positive for developing Miles as his own entity, but maybe they'd pull it off
― mh, Monday, 6 May 2019 17:32 (four years ago) link
that fucking Kevin Smith Spider-Man/Black Cat miniseries I never readDidn’t technically everyone not read it? IIRC either he or the Dodsons just gave up after two issuesMysterio was definitely in his Daredevil run, though, eight issues about which I can remember nothing but Quesada trying to draw Mysterio scary by wreathing himself in smoke while he hung out in his home office
― blokes you can't rust (sic), Monday, 6 May 2019 17:41 (four years ago) link
They actually did complete that six-issue miniseries after taking a couple years off to rest.
― Ce Ce Penistongs (Old Lunch), Monday, 6 May 2019 17:47 (four years ago) link
Drawing that many tits can take it out of you. And just imagine poor Smith, having to think them up
