We Watched *VENOM* For The First Time! VENOM (2018) [REACTION] First Time Watching!

[@dcummings336]

This!! This!! The version of Venom you see here is who Spiderman faces in the comics. Imagine the fights between the 2?😮

Tom Hardy played Bane, in Batman. He played Solomon in The Peaky Blinders, he played the masked pilot in Dunkirk, he played in Inception with Leo DiCaprio, he played in Mad Max: Fury Road. He is a prime actor. Exceptional.

[@marlonclark-pp9wg]

he also starred with Leo Dicaprio in the Revenant

it was a good time for sure

I can’t believe I just left a comment on train to busan on how amazing you are for dropping so many videos so fast for you tube and you drop another one. Fantastic. Whole weekend of the octobers. Could not get any better. Great job. My favorite channel. Appreciate everything you do keep up the great work Love and Prayers

[@TheOctobersReact]

Thank you so much!!

[@MovementGraffiti]

A lot of ppl didn't like this one; especially the Marvel die hards who grew up with literal comic book Venom, but I really liked it and have watched it many times. I think the general consensus was that they wanted it to be a tiny bit darker. Thanks for your reaction guys, you had me laughing.

[@shadowfauxe6468]

I don't hear many people complaining about those movies? My dad loves Venom and loved those movies, even though they were a bit campy(especially the second).

[@MiamiJamrockSpice]

​@@shadowfauxe6468 I'm in that camp that @MovementGraffiti described. I hated it. But for more reasons than that.

[@MovementGraffiti]

@@shadowfauxe6468 all you have to do is search the ratings score for the venom movies compared to the ratings scores of the other marvel movies that were coming out at the same time. You should also talk to more ppl that grew up w the comics age ranges 35-55

[@shadowfauxe6468]

@@MovementGraffiti Yes, as my dad is 48, has been reading comic books for a very long time as have I. I didn't say they were perfect, but for the second live action version of Venom, it wasn't to bad. Most people I talk to have their issues with it, but its watchable for sure. A rating score by critics who give Sharknado a good score isn't saying much. The audience scores range from 75-85%. So I think audiences(aka fans of Venom) liked it more then a snooty critic.

[@MovementGraffiti]

@@shadowfauxe6468 they rated all the other marvel movies that were said to be better than Venom at high 90's or A/A+. 75% is a C+. 85% is a B they didn't like it as much as the others

[@lavinder11]

The first time I saw Tom Hardy was in Star Trek Nemesis. He’s been acting for a long time. His other famous roles are Inception, Batman, Peaky Blinders, The Revenant, Warrior and Mad Max. And this movie didn’t take off, but I liked him in Lawless as well.

[@christeasdale1910]

I first saw him in a mini series called ‘the take’ which was brilliant. I highly recommend if you haven’t seen it already.

[@the19Zabaniyah]

(This may have already been commented) but when Venom says that on his planet he is a loser too, this is a reference to the fact that of all the Symbiotes Venom is technically one of the weakest.

[@passionsquietrage]

I have no idea how the hell I missed this until just now, but the symbiote we saw go into the rabbit is named Scream(Yes, there's more than Venom, Riot, and Carnage). We haven't met her human host, Donna Diego, yet but hopefully we will at some point.

[@aowyn_]

“he seems familiar” 😩😭😭😭 that’s Tom Hardy!!!!!! 🤩😍

[@daveb947]

I like both Venom movies. I mean, they do keep some of the characters storylines without the full on original origins etc. This is, from what i remember, a mix of Separation Anxiety (other symbotes are Venom spawn) and you have the arc of Eddie/Venom becoming an anti hero/protector. At least from what i remember.

[@Oldtimer_Shrek]

Ever wonder where all the missing people go? There not all volunteers for experimentation

[@rohanchooramun7288]

After the 2 Venom movies, there is also one season of Daredevil and a Fantastic Four movie to watch before watching No Way Home. Then you should be caught up with every side stuff. Best way to enjoy what's to come in the MCU.

[@maxvickrey4357]

So Venom in the comics feeds on its host adrenaline which is why it was so attracted to Spiderman and it doesn't make you act like an edge lord as much as it causes you to crave the adrenaline and behave in more risky ways also Venom lack of morality slowly effects Peters behavior as well

[@-zerxvil-5208]

The Symbiote is from a planet of clintar or something. They are a species that help enhanced the host they bond with to do heroic acts in overdrive to a point of exhaustion. But Venom gene is somewhat corrupted that it amplified the hatred and anger of Peter/Spiderman and gain spider's power in the process. But in this universe it bypassed Spiderman and bond to Eddie instead. That's why there's no spider logo on Venom's chest. This Venom and Spiderman 3 Venom is of different origins thanks to the multiverse plot.

[@BSM-vw6cf]

And they where further expanded upon, being cheated by the symbiote god Knull to consume all life and destroy all light.

[@ShigarakiTheBestNewGen]

[@-zerxvil-5208]

@@ShigarakiTheBestNewGen as of the moment, it wasn't revealed yet. Why give spoilers for free?

[@EpicDave]

I used to watch The O.C. to 😅. The actor you're thinking about is Logan Marshall-Green who has a striking resemblance to Tom Hardy.

[@Ghost8386]

Eddie Brock, also known as Edward Charles Allan Brock, is a fictional character in Marvel Comics. He was brought to life by David Michelinie and Todd McFarlane, first making a brief appearance in Web of Spider-Man #18 (September 1986) before fully debuting in The Amazing Spider-Man #300 (May 1988) as the iconic host of the Venom symbiote. Tom Hardy adopted an "aw-shucks American accent" for Eddie and a "James Brown lounge lizard" voice for Venom, which was eventually altered to sound more menacing.

[@amurderofbananas7449]

It’s not the brother from the OC, but he was in the mcu. He was the first “shocker” in Homecoming.

[@Redd21481]

Clintar is the planet of the symbiote species but its not really a planet its a jail to hold back the God of the symbiotes Knull the King in Black here before the Universe had light. Its a really cool story. AWESOME show 👏 Octobers Keep up the terrific work 👌 👏 👍 😀

[@BSM-vw6cf]

In the comics Riot is one of Venom's many offspring.

[@devynjohnson317]

I love both venom movies so much. Venom is so fun.

[@BeardiusMaximus]

I really didn't like the portrayal of Venom in the Spiderman movies. I much prefer Venom having his own character/personality alongside Eddie Brock instead of just "possessing" and altering the host

[@paaritoshkarmakar2119]

In the comics, Eddie was the third host of Venom. The first one was Deadpool. But Venom left him because he was too crazy, even for him. Then he went to Spider-Man and then Eddie

[@DSUASTE69]

FYI that lobster scene was improvised, then the voice of venom is the same guy that plays Eddie Brock just modified

[@Laochri]

The reason the host is different is the symbiote Takes on the Hosts dark aspects. The Symbiote that attached to Spider-Man made Peter was a nasty, rough, unpleasant, slimeball, because Peter was a Nice giving guy. After Peter got rid of it, it attracted to Eddy Brock. That Eddy was already a nasty, rough, unpleasant, slimeball, so it just got worse. The Symbiote always takes on part of the host when it leaves. Venom in the Comics did attach to Spider-Man. When he left Spidy, it took on part of his persona, is Spider-Man suit. That's why the Venom looks kinda like a Black Suited Spider-Man.

[@michealwillingham9014]

Venom is one of my top ten favorite marvel movies because it came out the following year after I graduated from high school

[@JW666]

Well, Tom Hardy is also known for Mad Max: Fury Road, The Dark Knight Rises, The Revenant, Bronson and Legend. Actually, Venom has had another host in the comics, Flash Thompson (Peter Parker's bully, but later friend and ironically is a huge Spider Man fan). The Thompson version was called Agent Venom. And Eddie Brock has had another symbiote which is called Anti-Venom. Hope you do the 2nd movie, Venom: Let There Be Carnage. If you want more alien parasites taking over the human body then watch John Carpenter's The Thing =)

[@animatorFan74]

Yeh, totally agree.... this Venom movie is awesome.... I looove the fighting between Eddie and Venom, how they just don't get along but they learn to come together and work together. Tom Hardy has been in a whole host of movies, but you might know him from The Dark Knight Rises, he plays Bane in that movie (I'm fairly sure you guys watched the Dark Knight Trilogy?? I hope you did anyway). But yeh he's in Legend, Mad Max Fury Road and Inception. I love him in ALL his roles... he's just so good. I'm kinda glad us as a community kept this one quiet from you....I can guarantee you it's not coz we don't like it, I'm pretty sure it''s well-liked and well-recieved, but now it's a pleasent surprise when you watched it the first time. This is definitely the best big-screen version of Venom that's out there. Thanks again guys.... you guys are so funny together and I really love Mrs October's observations about things... she really picks up on so many details and pays way more attention than I do (even though I'm a fan of the comics). I love also that you're in for the long-haul and here to see it all. Superhero genre has its ups and downs but hopefully mostly up. Thanks. See you in the next reaction :)

[@wolfman-up7dh]

If this had come out 10 years earlier, it would be regarded as a Comicbook classic.

Tom hardy played bane in Batman’s “the dark knight rises”

[@NigelShepherd-z7k]

Also in "Inception" and "The Revenent" both with Leonardo DiCaprio. Personally I think one of his best movies is "Locke". Highly underrated story of a man whose life falls apart on a car ride. 🤔🇬🇧

[@nammis77]

Sony did so much wrong with the Spider-Man movies for as much good as they did. Tom Hardy also did the voice for Venom. They just tweaked it after recording. It wasn't vibrations that irritated Venom, it was high frequency sounds (and fire). Sure the movie isn't amazing, but its still a fun time. It got far too much hate imo.

2:41 The symbiote shares it's emotions with it's host and vice versa in general when bonded with the symbiote Parker does become more aggressive and kind of a douche but the 3rd Raimi Spider-man went kind of weird with it.

[@JB-nc7yk]

Remember that this is a Sony/Marvel production not Marvel Studios/Disney so it’s not technically part of the MCU as far as Marvel/Disney is concerned. Now, Sony may have other intentions and plans but not part of the MCU. So Sony doesn’t have anything MCU related the hint or build to in a post credit scene like you’d see in a MCU movie.

[@bug5317]

Such a great movie. The second one is pretty fun too. The success of this movie is why Sony INSISTS on trying to keep making mediocre Spiderman-less Villains movies. Nine have been as successful as the Venom movies have. I do think that upcoming Kraven movie might be good.

[@TheAmazingWebhead]

So the Venom movies are based on Venom’s solo comic series from the 1990’s where he became a anti hero after making amends to Spider-Man when they teamed up to fight a common enemy. Tom Hardy is the best part for both these films but the common criticism people had was that it wasn’t Rated R, weak writing, and importantly no Spider-Man. Really though Venom became a big enough character that made sense to do a what if scenario if Spider-Man wasn’t involved. However, fans biggest wish for Sony is to have Venom meet Spidey. The Venom films aren’t perfect but they’re more watchable than Sony’s recent stuff cough Madame Web cough. 😅

[@roystoyscomics1361]

"Yes, so you will be this armless, legless, faceless thing, won't you. A turd in the wind?". 💩. - Venom So the timeline is Spider-Man is brought to Battle World an artificial satellite created by an omnipotent being known as the Beyonder. Who wishes to understand good vs evil. So he summons several of Earth's heroes and Villains. Promising great power to whoever prevails. Spider-Man's costume gets damaged in battle. In the Heroes base he finds what he believes to be a fabrication device that he can design a new costume. That costume is in actuality a symbiote, an alien parasite that cannot survive without a host. Back to Earth a few weeks later and Peter finds that the "costume" seeks to bond with him. He then seeks the advice of the smartest person he knows...Reed Richards a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic of the Fantastic Four. After many tests he finds that the parasite seeks a permanent bond. Peter just wants it off so Reed uses sonics as the symbiote appears to be weakened by that. Reed places the symbiote in a containment vessel...it escapes. Now angry that Peter rejected it. It finds a new host in reporter Eddie Brock who got fired for falsifying photos for a paycheck. Thus Venom was born. 😂 Gene Simmons is the member of the Rock Band Kiss with a long tongue. 😅

[@tmagicinfinity]

Venom movie isn’t connected to the X-Men or Deadpool movies. It’s loosely connected the MCU. Just think of this as a separate Sony universe.

The end discussion, why the fugg are you talking about a comet, when Venom himself said he was a loser on his own home planet? Not to mention the fact that the symbiotes in this movie, crashed in a earthly (man-made) spaceship, not a comet landing on earth. You really gotta learn to pay better attention. Because I (and probably the rest of the viewers here, too) have no idea where you got that comet thing from. Edit: And also, she just said 'Cannibal'. And I thought cannibal meant to eat your own kind, and Venom eats humans, not the other symbiotes, so how is that cannibalism, when they're not even the same species? But if anyone knows better, please enlighten me.
