Ronin46 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Venom was car crash bad, but kinda watchable. When Tom was in the scene the movie was rolling and the rest of the time it was bad. I expect this to do well. Woody should inject some charisma into the movie and they will ham it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the villainous element with Riz Ahmed in the first movie was truly terrible. I think now that they know what this movie is, I think Woody is gonna be a lot of fun here. They need to kick marketing up for this now. There definitely needs to be a TV spot with opening night Football on Thursday. I feel like with all these date changes, general audiences have no idea when this is coming out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 (edited) Forget Carnage! The REAL reason most people will be watching this film is for the Brock and Venom symbiote bromance. Edited September 6, 2021 by Mojoguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm feeling somewhere in the 40% range critics on RT. Would love to be wrong, but idk, Venom is just too stupid of a character to make a legitimately good movie, especially the route Sony had taken with the character. I think it'll do well with audiences tho like the first one. It looks fun Eh, I think if you adapted agent venom or went and made a full out horror film with an R rating you could make a good venom film. But, a lot of times venom was very campy in the comics so these movies fit that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOVIEGUY Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Got the trailer for this during Shang Chi. Carnage doesn't even look red. He's like... light gray-ish with a hint of red. Couldn't even get that right smh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I heard Tom Hardy was cast in the role I was really excited and thinking it could be something different... But then I saw who was directing and writing that first film and I knew what to expect after that. I'm saying with the direction they've gone with the character, you can't make a legitimately good film. All you can hope for is that it's fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michelle Williams is seriously miscast in the part. She's a terrific actress, but she seems like she has absolutely no idea what she's doing in that first film. Obviously a lot of it comes down to a bad script and a bad director, but I still think she isn't a good fit. Jessica Chastain would've worked a lot better. Her and Tom Hardy worked really well together in Lawless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadOlCatSylvester Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) So... I just realized that Sony already has the October 1 date locked for Don't Breathe 2 in my country. And Bond also being there will likely dissuade Sony from putting Venom 2 there. All the more likely we'll get it on the 24th like originally planned. Or we could just get it a week after the US on the 8th... which apparently has Hotel Transylvania 4 even though it got sold to Amazon which does exist here, so... I have no clue. Maybe they'll just keep Venom 2 on the 15th here, since Sony's distributor here-Warner Bros, believe it or not-has a tentpole release here every week up to the 22nd. Here's our slate for October for those of you who are interested: https://boxofficeturkiye.com/takvim/2021/ekim Edited September 7, 2021 by BadOlCatSylvester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford41B Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) According to Fandango and AMC the runtime is 1 hour 30 minutes. If this is true it's considerably shorter than the previous one, which clocked at 1 hour 58 minutes.

It's an interesting choice, hopefully it means that it's a tight and fast-paced film. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Atreides Posted September 8, 2021 Author Share Posted September 8, 2021 Not sure why people are so offended at 90 minutes. It's two goofy symbiotes clashing with one another, so it's not like there's some grand story here. 7 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
