Well, there HAVE been more than one Venom, heck, after Civil War the Scorpion became the new Venom! And Eddie Brock is now the “Anti-Venom” so there are a lot more directions that Sony can go in for it. I agree with Kyle above, not including the overhaul – terms of the whole Movie-storyline tie-in, Venom leaves New York for San Francisco in the comics (Lethal Protector) anyway, and no one nows what happened to Venom after Spider-Man 3. AND they can have Spidey in it as a side Character, yet again, like Lethal Protector! and as a villain for Venom to fight, why not Carnage? Or maybe- for “Comic”- relief (he he he)- even Scorpion (considering that he eventually becomes a new Venom)! I think a Venom movie is a way to go.

listen venom was really great character in the 90′s if they stuck to those lines it would be great and there was a couple of story lines that venom was in that was good, saying that what they did to him in spiderman 3 was a disgrace and if they did make a movie they would have to reprise his character and do a completely different style to him, add some of the loveable psychotic episodes that made him a great anti hero as opposed to the little winy kid they made in spiderman 3, in my opinion a venom flick would be great especially one without toby maguire as well.

I liked him when he was a bad guy as drawn by McFarlane, even though, the whole concept is kind of a lot to take. Great visual, though!

I loved the misc Venom mini’s back in the day, and particularly Lethal Protector. As to a Venom movie… i just don’t know. Venom hasn’t worked in the comics since Maximum Carnage, in my opinion.

Wasn’t there a Venom vs Carnage movie in the works?

I think what Bendis has done with Venom in Ult Spidey is a great take, but there’s something about his 90′s Marvel appearances that makes me smile.

Also, Chris G’s Mini-Marvels feature a FANTASTIC Venom. “I want to eat your brains!”
