SPIDER-MAN, VENOM, NON MARVEL SPIDEY DOES WHAT A SPIDER CAN IF SONY LETS HIM

[Anderson]

Garfield is a shit actor, Maguire only understood one aspect of the role. Still, he did the best that he could given that Raimi shot them as Superman movies.

This is a good point. I think he got the hang of it by the third movie but, yeah, that one isn't so good.

I've thought about these films way too much. So, I tend to stay out of these conversations due to now wanting to piss out any campfires.

That being said, Spidey has always sucked to a degree on film.

Garfield's not smarmy, he's overcompensating. Smarmy is a whole other world onto itself. Walter Peck is smarmy, Andrew Garfield is fucking someone out of his league.

Maybe that's what it was re: Garfield - that he might've tried a bit too hard. Also, I rather liked that Raimi shot his films like Superman; they were comic booky and a bit camp, but that was precisely what made them work for me. They didn't take themselves too seriously.

Rob, excellent point re: Classic vs. Ultimate. I like 'em both, I even dig on seeing a Miles Morales Spidey flick or TV show (Netflix?), but if push comes to shove, I'm an old school comic fan. I grew up with Classic Spidey/Parker, so I'm biased towards that.

Carnage to be the bad guy in Venom?

Ok sure why not?

Meh. Still seems like a bad idea to me, and that teaser didn't do anything to convince me otherwise.

[gravedigger]

The only thing anyone cares about is what the suit looks like. Bad teaser is bad.

[Matt]

That is an absolutely terrible teaser trailer. You've got Hardy walking with his limp walk, you've got his tinny voice doing a bad American accent, you've got zero money shots of Venom, and you've got Hardy doing a crazy, laughable scream/shake thing at the end to make you laugh.

[Captain Russ]

Not to be a contrarian, but I like the less is more approach.

I mean it’s a teaser for fuck’s sake.

[Abraham Smashington]

Here's the thing: I agree with all of you.

The Venom stuff is all mocapped and if they would have shown unfinished CG we'd be bitching HOWEVER by not showing ANYTHING this feels like a generic action movie. A teaser should tease with a bit of something. Hell, even just a CGI tongue at the end or SOMETHING would have gone a long way.

Based on that, this teaser is boring and still doesn't get me amped in the slightest for this movie. Show me a bit of the Venom design in action and that may change.

[Anderson]

I can't even tell what version of Venom they're doing.

One of the shots echoes how Angelo Fortunato got the symbiote.

That being said, try something new and make Anti-Venom work onscreen.

[Captain Russ]

That'd be wild.

[BillyG]

Alright. That's a pretty alright trailer. Who dies in part 1 and who dies in part 2? I am gonna bet that Iron Man dies to save Parker and Captain America goes in a huge goddamn blaze of glory in part 1 and Vision goes in part 2 when he gets his infinity stone ripped out.
