Venom: Let There Be Carnage - Spoilers Discussion!

[@KouheixHazuki]

These movies have the same problem. Any symbiote not venom gets killed off and that's a poor way to do them especially Carnage.

[@stickybunnn]

EXACTLY. Riot is understandable cause he's whatever. But how do you kill off one of the most popular marvel villains ever?? Carnage is just as important and popular as Venom!

[@KouheixHazuki]

@@stickybunnn I know Carnage is my favorite of the 2 and for them to be able to defeat him because Carnage and Kassidy are not fully bonded was BS. The reason Carnage is so much stronger than Venom is due to Carnage and Cletus being fully bonded so using I/Me/ etc.. whereas Venom uses the We because him and Eddie are not one being.

[@johnbach2380]

if you think Carnage is "dead" I think you need to get into your "comic book logic" thinking cap. Cassidy's head and the carnage symbiote is still inside Venom. Now Venom has traveled to the MCU... Carnage is coming back.

[@comicbookprodigy995]

Indeed, they are the PERFECT symbiote. In fact, their bond is so strong, it parallel's perfectly with Venom and Eddie because Venom just needs a host. Eddie is the one desperate for the symbiote -- their bond is a one sided stockholm syndrome. They messed that up majorly, along with his voice. His voice and size irritated me. He's supposed to be lean and sound high pitched and psychotic. If they would've fixed those two things and got rid of Shriek entirely, I would've loved this film.

and when are you guys unterstanding that a movie adaptation DOES NOT need to use already used story lines and lore. MAYBE they want to create something different?

I don’t like the fact that they made Carnage to have two different beings. Since the symbiote is inside Cletus body, that would mean he takes all control of it.

[@caleblecrow2207]

Not in defense of the movie, but Carnage is much more in control of Cletus than Cletus likes to admit. He just enjoys the ride and Carnage is naturally predisposed to do things that Cletus wants to do. I remember some lines from Carnage USA hinting towards him basically suggest he doesn't know if he's ever been in control or if he's just been okay with what's happening. But he had to talk Carnage into doing that entire plot line in the first place.

Cletus Kasady is too violent and obscene to have him be on a damn pg-13 film, hence why Carnage is way too tame in this and why I wasn't looking forward to any of these Venom films. I liked the Carnage character design but his voice sounded too close to Venom's. Oh and here's Shriek for some reason idk, might need her later.

My only guess about how Toxin was created is that when Shriek gouged Mulligans eye out, some of Carnages pieces flew off when Venom and him were fighting and got into his eye, and mixed with his blood. Maybe. I don't know, it was literally completely out of nowhere.

[@HannyS_]

Well originally Venom can reproduce anytime he wants and he does not need anything... So I think they handled this one pretty good... Would be pretty dumb if he made offspring intentionally for Cletus since he is an anti-hero in these movies not an actual villain (yet) as he is in the comics.... Its pretty hard to think of different way how to create carnage when brock is not in the prison with Cletus as a prisoner....

So I think I can tell what makes me really like the movie is that I have not read a Carnage comic. The only intro to Carnage I had was the animated Spiderman series and the 2000 Spiderman game. So This movie was a serious step up and probably the best onscreen interpretation we're going to get.

[@rudra7615]

@@isaacsmith6878 true, but movie makers wouldn't do that, making the viewer go "oh this isn't happening now but major news just being repeated days and weeks later". It's purposely chosen. I'm guessing they would want Venom to be in this universe and come to hate Spiderman, even taking his spider emblem into his design etc..via a venom 3 and then clash with Spiderman in venom 4/sinister six movie. Other factors come into play, do you let Venom know the indentity of Spiderman? Or does his memory get erased too? Does this factor in? We just have to wait and see

[@embeux4907]

Technically carnage could be back bc Tom Holland is in a separate universe and cletus kassidy could still be alive logically

[@aitcheljay9356]

I watched this with my mates tonight. I was honestly disappointed with it. I don't want this Venom in the MCU, it makes no sense why Venom should hate Peter Parker, Eddie is the whole reason why Venom attacks Spider man!!! And Carnage is soooo restrained, his appearance was sick. But that was I all it was, and his symbiote voice didn't suit, his symbiote is psychotic. Goddammit they should of made his voice show that

[@TheLostDude7]

Also when cletus girl all of a sudden changes her mind about killing at the end is so weird. The end was a cool fight visually, but didn't make sense. Carnage can't separate that easily. Deciding to kill off Cletus is dumb. Toxin hint, now who's toxins enemy? Venom only? especially if they ever make a movie I honestly hope they don't make anymore venom tbh, they will ruin toxin. It's gonna be the same thing over and over. Eddie and venom relationship problems, fighting another fuckin alien... About to fail, but suceeeds by venom finding its WAy back to Eddie Great.. We've seen that last time.

[@TheLostDude7]

Not to be harsh but venom films only visually great, and fights are ok. Story, is broken

[@Kilawpilath]

I suspect what'll happen is Venom will want to kill Toxin, because of the whole once every 10k Years a Super Symbiote is born, but is born crazy, and is afraid of what Toxin will become because of being Carnage's Spawn. So Venom will be the villain in the movie till the tail end.

[@TheLostDude7]

@@Kilawpilath idk tho toxin is stronger than both of them, yet is a hero but kind of an anti villain too just like Eddie he fights justice but also needs to eat, and is brutal but toxin hates his parents just like any offspring symbiote or most at least. I guess who it bonds to idk the truth here im just saying stuff But yeah I honestly just hope they (Sony) don't do anymore venom films at least maybe give its rights to marvel, at least the jokes would be cooler and choreography not just visuals

[@poisonova1]

Guys you are thinking about this on surface level. The symbiote connected with kassedy when he bit him and chose to transfer to him. Just like it happened in the comics. Think about it, Venom has been wanting to go out there and destroy things, part of the symbiote transferred for this reason. There are far more things about this movie to not like but how he got the symbiote isn't one of them imo lol.

This movie definitely has to many diverging points and plots to where it feels bloated.

All it boils down to is add a bit of batman flavor to Eddie's arsenal.

[@harveydent5334]

Venom 3: Lethal Protector Only cause they said "lethal protector" a bunch of times. Which was a comic book

[@acedragon543]

So for the post credit, i'm not sure if Venom so much has a connection to Spider-man as he thinks he can eat him. Venom wants to be a "lethal protector" and seems to enjoy fighting opponents who are at least somewhat challenging. The only thing they see about him when they get there is the news framing Spidey as a villain and as Venom has said before, he can eat bad guys.

[@gezat3479]

Carnage accessing the laptop also makes no sense

[@wheezer141]

I mean, Carnage’s daughter can literally bond to machines the same way most symbiotes bond to living things, so it's not that far fetched

[@tubbisaurusrex]

I think if we saw Carnage doing things like refusing to be in a wedding and arguing with Cledus a lot more, then we would have a better parallel dynamic that they were going for at the end. Venom and Eddie both say that they arent symbiotic, so that should have been emphasized a lot more. Even in a non action/non shriek scene where they argue.
