Venom - Official Trailer

Does not look good. But I will watch it.

Looks good.

Prediction: He’s not even going to go full venom for more than teo scenes and that will be a disappointment

Strike two for hardy first bane now this

I really hope I’m wrong tho

Yup, I'm excited

Looks way better than expected, though I still have issues with a Venom origin story without Spider-Man.

This looks bloody great.

@tjd2814: Tom Hardy debunked the "venom for less than 5 minutes" thing.

I am not loving it. The cgi doesnt look very good to me as well. I probably wont go to the movies to see this.

I’ll definitely give it a watch

The trailer wasn't working for me but damn that suit up moment was sick.

This movie will be gud because Tom Hardy is gud.

The Venom CGI looks like something out of a early 2000s B horror movie though.

@theamazingspidey's reaction:

@cattlebattle: movie come out on November i think they'll have plenty of time to work on the CG

Why you guys always judging CG based on trailers?

I was just making a joke, man. Relax your balls.

I'm not mad homie just pointing something out!

Had to make GIFs for these.

I understand the CGI will be polished by the film's release, I am saying in the trailer he looks like a creature from one of those "Gingerdead Man" type films.

yeah really hope you're wrong but I have a feeling its going to be like this too

@cattlebattle: Well ya'll wanted to see Venom in the trailer, you guys were complaining when they didn't show it in the teaser

At the very least it's better than the first trailer.

Who's "you guys"?? Well, you got me, man. The jig is up. I am totally collectively every account on every website that made that complaint.

Seriously though, I wasn't even aware there was a trailer before this one.

I like Venom's design a lot, though it feels very weird without spider-man's presence. I wonder how Brock gets the idea to call himself venom since the whole being poison to peter parker shtick is out of the window.

In either cause I hope Venom has a large presence on screen, and I'm definitely interested.

@cattlebattle: "you guys" doesn't necessarily mean you and this case it means most people who watched the first teaser trust me they were complaining a lot about it

That's some pretty bad CG for a trailer.

Thats my only main concern really too. I grew up on the McFarlane version of the character and iirc it was both the symbiotes and Eddie Brock’s hatred for Peter/Spider-Man that made them so compatible hence their bond. Hell, Venoms look, powers and symbol all riff off of the Symbiotes time with Peter. It’ll be interesting how they do this without Spidey, I prefer he be involve, but I still think this’ll be good and I’m excited

I will give it a try.

How exactly do you pronounce "symbiote"?

In this trailer the woman pronounces it as "seem-by-yote" while in the Spidey Trilogy the professor pronounces it as "seem-bee-yote", IIRC.

Looks good.

Reminds me of that clown from IT, and that's a good thing.

Sweeeet

I'm still kinda disappointed with this movie's premise so far. It feels like Eddie Brock is reluctant to have the symbiote unlike his comic book counterpart. I like woody harrelson's narrative at the beginning of this trailer but I think having some glimpse of carnage would get me more pumped to see this movie. It may turn out to be a mediocre film that restores some reverence for Venom.

@gateofbabylon: Yeah i don't pronounce it like the woman did here. It SHOULD be a soft "i". But i think it might be a regional thing (as in where/how she grew up). Or like influenced by whatever her native tongue is. Her 1st language doesn't seem to be English, so it might be a personal linguistic tendency.

@tonymartial: you think it’s debunked so instead of 5 it’s 7 lol

But thats great! I missed that I’m glad to hear it

Looks sh!t but at the same time looks like it will be pretty decent.

I hope so too. Too early to judge, and I'm hoping they are deliberately not showing us stuff with Venom to save it for the movie. Amazing Spider-man 2 had to many clips and trailers so if this is a more closed off approach I'm glad for it.

I hope that some people's prediction about Venom being minimized in the movie isn't true though...

Yeah... I don't really know. I don't like the idea of Eddie becoming Venom without the main source of vengeance that caused him to be so angry in the first place... a certain webslinging superhero that goes "Thwip! Thwip!". I really don't like the idea of Venom going after evil corporate executives. It just feels so... generic. I was hoping to see Tom Holland at least cameo in it since it says, "In association with Marvel", kinda like what Suicide Squad did with Batman, but I guess it doesn't necessarily mean "In association with Marvel Studios".

Oh well. Hopefully, I'm wrong and merely judging by a book by its cover.

looks awesome i can't wait !

Looks ok. I'll give it a try anyway.

Not really interested in a Venom film without my guy in it...

Venom looks amazing.

Looks... Raw, but interesting. Glad there's no Spiderman.

Venom's voice could use a little more deep.

He locks sick, they went for it the full on venom let’s go

I think I’m the only guy who would prefer spidy Out I’m really sick of him in movies

Trash

Holy crap that looked awesome! CGI was a little off but the movie's still in production so that's not an issue. Tom Hardy being a reporter doesn't stick with me but all the Venom parts looked great and Venom himself looked terrifying! I'm definitely watching this.

I actually liked the first teaser trailer a lot more since it at least followed the dark and gritty tone of Venom as a character. He has all these aggressive emotions buried inside him, and that teaser summed that up very well. It also suggested that the movie's going to be something of a psychological character study. Both good points that left me far more impressed than any Spider-Man trailers I've seen in a while.

Here's that teaser trailer again for reference:

That was a very scary trailer, almost like a horror movie, which is fitting for a Venom movie. He's supposed to be this terrifying monstrous force of nature who will stop at nothing to seek his vengeance against Spider-Man. The "official trailer" on the other hand made him feel more like a misunderstood friendly fellow who doesn't want to attack people, and the symbiote is the one influencing him to do so - which is a bit inaccurate from whom the character really is. Eddie Brock isn't necessarily evil, but he's not some docile softie who only gone bad because of the symbiote either.

The main problem with making Venom (prior to his Anti-Venom days) a good guy is that each of Spider-Man's villains are supposed to reflect the opposite of what Peter Parker would have done with his powers. The notion of choice is a significant theme in Spider-Man stories, and Eddie is one of the many who chose to kill and attack with his powers, thereby polarizing Spider-Man's decisions to use his powers for good. Making Venom a misunderstood good guy is contradictory of that theme.

Finally, one of the things that made Venom so deadly as a villain is that, not only does the symbiote share the same hatred for Spider-Man as Eddie Brock, because Spidey was once host to the symbiote, that alien parasite also knows his secret identity, and Venom used that knowledge to go after Peter's personal life very often. Without the inclusion of Spider-Man, Venom would lose the impact of why he's so notorious among Spidey's rogue gallery all these years. It's not just the muscles and the enhanced strength, it's what Venom represents - a toxic venom created to kill Spider-Man and him alone.

All that being said, there's not much to read from since the trailer didn't show enough footage for interpretation. But that's just the vibe I'm getting when I saw the symbiote's tendrils attacking those men in suits from Eddie's body. He acted like he didn't want to attack them. I'm just putting my two cents on what it means if my assumption is correct, so I hope you won't be too bothered by my presumptive tirade. lol
