UPDATE: [UPDATE: Is the Venom Movie Moving Finally Moving Forward?]
Warning, if you don’t want to be spoiled, do not click on the links below.
If there was any doubt that Venom would be appearing in Spiderman 3 in his full, nasty form, doubt no more.
I did a screen grab from the recent clips aired on FOX TV (thanks to Superherohype) and managed to find a sweet, clear image of Venom, head on.

Here’s a small version of Venom here.
And a larger and slightly different version here.
Again, do NOT click on those links if you don’t want to be spoiled. That’s why I didn’t include a thumbnail image in this post.
Looks pretty faithful to the comic book version IMHO and I’ll bet he’ll be stinkin’ scary on the big screen.

Okay, that is NOT Venom in the movie, you can tell that that picture is totally photoshopped. That’s not Venom.
Go here:

and look for it about 1/5th of the way into the trailer. It’s VERY quick, if you blink you’ll miss it.

Thats venom, believe it or not.
Yep, that’s venom alright, plucked from the trailer as they say. I had a hell of a time tryin’ to pause it at exactly the right place, thank the lord for this screen capture. And so clear, too. Ah, he looks glorious. Course, Kirsten’ll shine him the hell off the screen, but i’m hoping by the time the DVD comes out i’ll be settled enough to notice him.
Haha “sam”, kill yourself dude, you’re brain dead.
k go to youtube.com and go to spiderman 3 venom and there is a whole bunch of crap there
k in this trailer his face is fully formed…but his body is still skinny. BUT, his actual body in like comics or shows or video games is HUGE so like i think his symbiote suite was still blending into his body…cuz in the movie eddie brock is a scrony lil sh*t
Love the Idea that Venom is in the Movie, not all to happy on who they have playing Eddie Brock. (Dude is a stick) Im still upset that they couldn’t make a Custume that looked like the Original Symbiote Spidey suit from the Comics. The one in the movie is just the Original one with a new paint job. But I could let that slide. The thing im wanting to know is if Venom would be Delt with in the movie, or in a Sequal.
Vic
They basically making Venom like Carnage. They messing up the original character. Just like Ultimate universe messed up Venom story.
Raimi hated Venom so basically screwing all Venom fans by making him a Carnage. Carnage is the one that is thin and kills innocents. Venom may be bad by wanting to kill spiderman but he doesn’t kill women or children. Raimi is a dummy.
Vic
I agree, the Venom in the movie does look a bit like Carnage, I reckon they should make him at least eight feet tall and buff, you know like a black Hulk…With teeth.
I think so he looks like Carnage.
This Venom seems to be a good product, but i think he’s too slim. I hope he will been stronger in the movie.
Vic
Venom will probably only be in the very last part of this movie. But Eddie Brock will be in the whole thing. I think that venom will be the main villain in Spider man 4.
Hey guys, here’s a link to an official CG image of Venom from the film [right after some images of Dr. Doom(fake) and the Hob Goblin]:

Vic
To be honest I think alot of people are down sizing this film, before its even out yet.
Agreed the Venom looks alittle odd, but after all, he has only JUST bounded with the alien. Maybe in time well see him buffed and what else.
Vic
i think that the new venom looks fantastic. you can really see all the features such as the teeth, venom symbol, and the disorganised web pattern. i’m not expecting venom to look exactly like he does in the comics. i think sam raimi has made the venom character more believable, you can just imagine him like that. i’m not sure how spidey will defeat all three villains. i came up with 3 ways he could defeat sandman though:
1- hoover- (spidey used one to defeat sandman in one of the comics.)
2- fire- (would turn sandman into glass, but then again, this was mentioned in the comics, and sandman could control his body if it was shattered. however this option would be perfect for taking down sandman and venom at the same time, as venom is vunerable to heat.)
3- water- (would probably make his body to heavy to control, but would probably turn him into a quicksand like creature, which is much worse.)
Well after the confermation of there being a 4th installment to the Spiderman franchise Raimi said that Venom will be in at least the last 30 to 45 minuets preparing us for the next movie. but from the looks of everything this movie is going to be the biggest movie of the year, and Venom along with the new suit and new villians all look terrific. i can’t wait.
I’m with you though: I’m *really* looking forward to this one.
Vic
Raimi at a press confrence did say that there would be a 4th instalment, also the subject of Tobey M. returning is still in question, he said that if there are more intesting stories to tell he may consider, but his along with the rest of the cast contracts are up after this film.
The Fourth film is confirmed, script is already being written but it isn’t for sure that Maguire will be in it. Apparently I heard that The Lizard and Mysterio are going to be in it.
Hey have you seen the Final Spiderman 3 Trailer. it has tons of clips with Venom in it. The movie should be AWESOME!!!
Vic
Go to http://www.imdb.com and you’ll see that it’s confirmed and is supposed to be released in 2009.
Vic
I just found out that Maguire and Dunst will stay for the next movie if Raimi is directing it.
In the final Spider-Man 3 trailer you will see that Venom is really buffed up!
wow,venom looks shiny lol,i cant wait for the movie im a big fan.:D
Here’s the whole Venom story from the comics:
http://www.marvel.com/universe/Venom
Vic
4th villian is mysterio,he will be the big opening scene in spidey 3
we catch up with him and spidey already doing battle,and spidey captures him,as he then is arrested and sent off to sing sing.
it will be a quickie fight and victory for spidey
but a great intro!
Where did you get your info?
Vic
i think venom looks cool in spiderman 3, but he could have been better with bigger muscles

****Warning Spoiler*****
In the book though Venom dies. Eddie Brock’s body gets completely melted away as the Alien tries to assimilate him and get a form of his own.
And also he is a complete jerk in the book, and acts more like Carnage, but the Venom parts were really brief, and with Venom, if there is not a body, he’s not dead. Hopes.
I really do not like the new suit. I heard the part about putting the webbings on there to hide the seams but come on. You would not need to hide them if you made Venom, black, slimy, and glossy like he should be. He doesn’t have a texture to him. In the end of it all he is not just a guy in a suit, but the alien goo itself. Whenever he bonds to it, it does it on that level.
I don’t like the skinny Venom. It does not stay true to his character at all. And yet I have only seen glimpses of the movie. Maybe Raimi is came to his senses and saving the good and right stuff only to surprise us.
I hope my favorite character isn’t butchered.
Where did you hear that Mysterio was going to open the movie
Venom gets about 3 minutes of film all in all then gets taken down by the old “bring on the pain, bring on the noise” tactic used by Bullseye in Daredevil. The ever honorable Spider-Man then kills Brock and the symbiote outright with a pumpkin bomb and no guilt. Completely pissed all over the legend that is Venom, I for one am not pleased.
Venom looks kool. The movie comes out the day after my bday. I hope the movie will be the best movie ever! I think he’s stronger in the movie (I think)
the onli time when venom get buff up
is when peter is surrounding him with metal poles to make a great sonic wave…you’ll see its very obvious… coze i notice it by looking at this shoulders
****I pretty much spoil the whole movie.****
Worst death ever!
WTF! Venom is the best character in spiderman.
well there goes the Carnage story I was hoping for.
Sick visually! Piss poor emotional scenes by maguire, the whole theatre broke out laughing when
pete cries for a dying harry ozborne, too much?
Ill tell you what there was too much of: exposition. People who know nothing of spiderman need their hand held through the plot sometimes, but I felt like the diologue filled too many holes, to a point where it was comical.
Sandman effects are siick, but I hate that F’ing shirt. Like outta the old live action Batman series.
The best part of the flick is spidy acting a dick to everyone.
The venom scenes were far too quick, and topher grace is too em0. I felt like there shoulda been more.
the club scene was terrible.and both singing parts by MJ were a waste.
the suit was ug. looked cooler but lacked the whole fluidy in the comic, plus it never bonded with him, or morphed to clothes, or did anything I was hoping for. Might as well call it symbiote light, because it was lame.
I was having some kind of ADD attack thoughout the whole flick. I wanted it to be over and yet I wanted to wait it out. Looks like Ill have to wait till DVD to watch it again so I dont have to listen to guys explaining the plot to their females, and I can smoke while watching. The movie brought on a mega nicotine fit.
As a movie of my fav hero, boo! but props on the CGI.
As a summer movie, Awsome.
And F Sam Raimi for killing my fav anti-hero.
THE MOVIE WAS BAD EDDY BROCK WAS KILLED BY A GOBLIN BOMB BY SPIDEY HE NEEDS TO STOP USEING THEM IT GETS RETARDED AFTER A WHILE THANKS FOR THE WORST SPIDER-MAN MOVIE EVER RAIMI I HOPE VENOM IS BACK IF NOT RAIMI IS DUMB
Spoiler warning! (For those who have yet to see the movie)
In IGN’s article about the confirmation of Spiderman 4 (http://movies.ign.com/articles/784/784823p1.html), they mention that a character who appears to die will return. Sandman didn’t die, he just drifted away, and they show Harry’s funeral, so there is no “appearance” of death there, he’s just dead. That leaves Venom. He’ll be back in 4.
Hopefully Spidey 4 will have the real Venom though, not the version that was in 3 whose personality and build were much more like Carnage than Venom.
I was actually pleased with this venom. The comic and cartoon ones were too surreal. This was most believable. And topher wasn’t exactly skinny for this movie either. Twenty pounds of muscle built onto his frame plus the extra padding from the suit made him thicker and weightier than Spiderman. Compare Maguire and Grace physiques now, and you’ll agree Topher is bigger. Plus, the Symbiote may yet live on and come back as Carnage (that, and perhaps the Lizard may come along for a possible fourth installment). Usually, the third movies are the worst in trilogies, but this actually exceeded my expectations. Itwas better than number two, in my opinion. But hey, opinions are opinions.
you guys are all poopsmiths get a life
wasnt the reason of the webbing on venom because it went on peter first bonded with him and changed the suit..
memorized the look of the costume and formed a costume of its own when it bonded with brock ?
sorry really bad english :/
Vic
what i dont get is, if the i would guess the hob goblin (harry) took a pumpkin in the face and lived why would venom an alien suit die from a pumpkin bomb…that the most retarded thing i didnt understand that in the movie, next to harry helping spiderman, the movie was cool with the cgi but why was parker(spide)crying so much?
the story line wasnt done rite, venom is needed to create carnage? spidermans blood and venoms suit, because how can spiderman fight carnage with venoms allience? that the biggest part that i didnt like about the movie.
the movie was good with all the cgi, and venom spiderman, i just wish they do venom more justice and not make him out to be a natural born killer, because that was carnage not venom.
http://screenrant.com/archives/review-spiderman-3-imax-716.html
That’s a better place to talk about the movie itself.
Vic
hey u guys u know that venom is spider mans mortal enieme and that in the books and games he’s buffer than that in the movie. why did u have to kill venom u should of just stoped the movie when that photographer turned into venom and then u would of had spider man 4 and the whole movie would of been about where spider man and venom would fight and everybody and i mean everybody would go see it and u would of made a whole lot more of money
i dont understand why with all the money tobey has why he doesnt hire a personal trainer, if i were him and got the chance to be spidy i would git real thick
In the comics, Spiderman is traditionally a skinny, wirey dude, not a big buff guy.
Vic
just watched spiderman 3 it was s**t! ma best ever marvel hero/villan character reduced 2 that scroney lil c**t off that 70s show wtf happend i wanna know and if maguire and the other characters aint in the next one they can kiss my nutsack coz i hate it when they re-cast :@ p.s RAIMI PUT SOME F*****G MUSCLES ON VENOM!!! BULK HIM UP!!!:@:@:@
venom suks in the movie first of all he has a girl voice that is what carnage has. second of all venom is to skiny he’s soppoused to be muscle and i think there was a little to much romance in the movie and not enough action. i heard tobby maguire is not gona come back probly he’s like the best peter parker ever and i don’t think they should replace him. overall i would give this movie 6 over 10 and im a big spidey fan. what i did love is how the black suited spidey acted. and they also should of left venom in for a little longer, like what the hell he was only on for like 15 minutes
