Yeah, I like his lines but the delay of his mouth from the words coming out is pretty distracting. It almost seems like they're rushing trailers to keep interest up right after Comic Con and during the months between now and October.

Love the comic right now but not hyped for this other than Hardy and Venoms look

Makes sense, bro lol

Way to go, sony.

You have managed to **** up an almost impossible to **** up project..

Bravo.......No, really. Awesome job.

Really could have pulled it off too, but how do you take Spider-Man out of Venom? You don't.

Tom Hardy: 'My favourite 40 minutes of Venom were cut from the film'

Ouch!!!

Quote:

Marvel fans may be looking forward to the release of the new superhero movie Venom – but for its star, Tom Hardy, it will be a bittersweet experience.

In an interview with ComicsExplained, Hardy admitted that all his favourite scenes had ended up on the cutting-room floor. When asked "What was your favourite scene to film?" he replied: "Things that aren’t in this movie."

The Taboo star continued: "There are like 30 to 40 minutes worth of scenes that aren’t in this movie... all of them. Mad puppeteering scenes, dark comedy scenes. You know what I mean? They just never made it in."

The film, a spin-off from the Spider-Man franchise, tells the origin story of the supervillain Venom, a symbiotic alien creature which takes over the body of a journalist (played by Hardy), and kills its enemies by biting off their heads.

The film's executive producer Matt Tolmach has poured cold water on rumours that the film's most shocking scenes were cut to ensure it would receive a PG-13 certificate in the US.

"There isn't some phantom version of the movie," Tolmach told comicbook.com last week. "Everyone is asking us that. Is there an R-rated cut sitting there? There isn't."

"We only ever talked about this movie as being PG-13," director Ruben Fleisher added. "What I've said in the past is that we wanted to push the violence to the hilt. The Dark Knight was always a huge reference point for me, personally, just as far as how far you could take a PG-13."

The Dark Knight, the 2008 Batman film, received a 12A certificate in the UK but prompted complaints from both Labour and Conservative MPs, with former Conservative leader Iain Duncan Smith claiming the "relentlessly violent" film was not suitable for children.

Fleisher said he believed he had made a similarly boundary-pushing film. "I'm proud to say [that what] I think I accomplished was to take it to the full limit," he said. "I feel like we don't compromise Venom in any real way. He's as aggressive as fans could possibly hope for, I think."

Pussies won't attempt an R rating. Lame.

After the success of Deadpool I would think they would get a little more leeway with the ratings from the studios.

I just can't take Tom Hardy seriously as an action star after finding out that he got KTFO'd by Shia LaBeouf.

Whaaa?

Starting to hear whispers this isn’t very good. Curious whys there’s still a review embargo?

Not looking too promising

I'll still go see it, it's Venom and looks pretty true to character. I could care less if it boils down to a big CGI monster fight at the end, if the romantic angle isnt there between him and her, if the dialogue is terrible or the CGI isn't polished up enough... it's Venom lol just like I went and saw The Predator... it's the Predator.

This will probably be a rental for me, unfortunately. My wife isn't interested in the slightest to see this and I don't generally go see movies by myself.

Eh. As long as it's not connected to the Tom Holland Spiderman not really interested. From the sounds of it no Carnage either.

The current trailer is awful, too.

Word is they did a drastic re-cut from the R rated version (which was the only reason Hardy signed up for it). Looks like a typical early 2000's superhero flick. Sony still doesn't get it.
