Much better but……..

where is the tongue??
where is the white big logo??
where is the tall Venom???

And I really hope Raimi Venom smile or yawn or scream all the movie. That will be the only way for seeing that small teeth.

Poor Venom……. he don’t deserve that big lips

LOL, well… there always have to be adjustments made for transitioning a comic book character to the big screen. I don’t think there has been any that has appeared in a superhero movie looking exactly the way they do in the comic books.

Besides, if you really think about it, if you took the Venom character the way he’s depicted in the comics and made him look like a live-action character, he’d be so horrifying that Spider-Man 3 would have to be rated R!

logan, glad you like it. It seems the vast majority of comments on this site are anti-movie-Venom!

Hey, its not underdone, but its not overdone. This Venom will be cool. Its more real-life. Some of the comic-book versions of Venom are simply too much (but cool, nonetheless. This Venom looks just right, and big enough in my opinion. You aren’t gonna get a big, musclebound, Batista-style Venom for a big screen movie. You need something authentic, and this is about that.

Vic…I mean, ahem, Rex Gorden

Yeah, this one is not for the little kiddies, but I’m sure clueless parents will still bring their 4 year olds to see it.

And Rex… very funny. :-D

If you really think about it, Venom is def a rated “R” character!!!! But if they want to make the $$$$ they will def have to bring him down to a rated “PG-13″ character. Movie gods help us all if they take him any lower…..I do not think I could handle a PG Venom.

I personally, from what I have seen so far, think Venom is looking kinda silly. I hope they clean up the CGI a little better. He looks so far, way to CGI. And that Vic, is exactly what I was afraid of to begin with.

I think that we’ll barely have the chance to see Venom standing still and that will make a difference in the CGI issue. Plus static images are much different than seeing him in action, with music in the context of the film.

Having said that, I *do* remember the scene at the end of “The Scorpion King”…

BTW, I believe both prior Spider-Man films were rated PG-13 and I have no doubt this one will be as well.

Still, I miss the creepy alien tongue, and perhaps white would better contrast the black instead of the current color. Dare I say a shiny silver, better yet? I dunno. Nothings perfect, I duess. But the CGI for Venom’s big maw would probably be alot better than the latex and rubber alternative. If anybody here has seen the pictures of them applying the suit to Topher and the mask that he wears as the final product, they may agree that the CGI is better.

I don’t know why they didn’t go with white… maybe onscreen it would look to cheesy?

if u think about it,its not FULLY sam raimis fault,its kind of the costume designers fault.and btw,look closely,the venom costume and the spidey simbiote costurme are the same exept the spider…its like twins…a deforemed head over sized jaw one and a regular one….i think spidermans black suit is fine,but venom having the plain black with huge white spider is better than spiderman having it.

well they could’ve done just a little better i mean like the size of him and the costume they could’ve just had it like black like vic said with the white spider in the chest and stomach area and the face could’ve been done differently to like made it look more viscous and blood thirsty like the comics but ya it looks pretty awesome
