Unfortunetly the start up is really slow and you only see Venom after the 1st hour. The action scenes were pretty cool tho.

Felt like it could have less of Eddie's life cause it was kinda borongós....

Mm-hm. Yeah, you definition over-hyped yourself.

So what about the PG-13? How annoying is it?

Watching it now

So my question is would the movie have been better with an R rating?

Do you feel it would have been better if Sony hadn't chickened out by making it PG-13?

Yes, even though I have to say for a PG-13 or as we have it here in germany 12 years it was pretty decent, you actually see people getting impaled, sliced up, open wounds with bones sticking out and heads get bitten off. Of course since it's PG-13 you don't see much of it, going higher up on that meter would have been better for sure.

Be faster next time, steveloses

Take a Selfie and post it.

Oh man, I bet LordofBrooklyn would have loved the pain I went through with Alien: Covenant. That was some serious pain. 😂

The pain is ONLY enjoyable if you are a devoted fan!

Oh, I was. Not anymore.. haha.

Go look up the old Alien: Covenant thread. It's all there.

Lots of enjoyable pain there! 😉

A steverules thread 😉

You wanna go there? Fine!

Quan is prettier than you uhuh

All around are familiar faces......

Saw it and enjoyed it for the most part i laughed and was thrilled to see a much more faithful version to Venom than back in 07. My only gripe is that the action scenes with Venom vs. Riot are really fast/rapidly edited, which is the same problem I had with Black Panther, the supporting characters are weak, and I think the post credits scene came without any weight. Overall, Hardy was funny and true to the down and out version of Eddy in the comics. His dialogue and improvisation with the symbiote were good. Definitely much better than Predator/the Nun and the critics are wrong IMO

7.5/10

Watching it loving every second of it

It was a bit confusing because they had to tell us when someone was mutilated. Because if you blinked you missed it.

Still give the tone of the film, it did not make a massive difference to the films quality IMO.

I felt like if Eddie turned into Venom a little earlier and we had more action scenes like the Apartment one where Brock is using the symbiote and doesnt transform fully I would have liked it much more.

If this would have been released when MCU phase 1 started it would have shit on all the other movies except for Avengers.

Gonna watch for a 2nd time soon...

Wasnt annoying at all its not like Eddie was eating humans or ripped them apart in the comics.

2 heads get biten off on camera tho...but its not gory imagine it this way:

Venom opens mouth put the whole head inside and chomps it no blood splattering but you can clearly see it disappearing.

Just got back from this. Didn't like it as much as some, but didn't find it awful either. My main gripe was that some of the attempts at humour really didn't work for me, yet they kept persisting with it,

Spoiler:
like the whole "I have a parasite" running gag, which I didn't find funny to begin with
, and this resulted in a few scenes that fell a bit flat for me.

Still better than BvS though. 😛

The whole I have a parasyte gag has been said way too many times indeed.

I kinda loved the store scene tho.... "Is that a bad guy? Yep."

Also the symbiote wanting to eat chocolate was a reference to the comics cause it has chemicals similar to the brain and thats how they replaced Venom's desire for eating brains.

Dude I typed that during the intermission.

Well finished it, still love it. My only complaint was that it felt a bit short. Also the CG at some points of Riot vs Venom was off.
It's most definitely better than Hulk, Daredevil or Elektra. The last two I still have on my computer and let's day whoever compared this film to those has a terrible memory

^ You guys have intermissions?
