| So, it looked like they were going the Deadpool route. The Director for Venom essentially confirmed that. However, they may be flipping on that decision. http://comicbook.com/marvel/2018/08/09/venom-movie-rating-spider-man-mcu-crossovers/ |

| yeah, looks like they have aspirations of crossing over with the MCU and they can't have an R film crossing over to PG-13 films. Also, the Venom film universe is hinging entirely on the success of Venom (the movie). | ||

| If they go this route, the Director’s Cut could always get a DVD/Blu-Ray/UHD release. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC This is why movies like Suicide Squad failed though! Venom is NOT A GOOD GUY. He is a evil, psychopathic villain. Chicken shit studios afraid of that dreaded R rating which ends up gutting the film and then "real" fans hold their breathe for a Directors-Cut that never delivers and just leaves people disappointed. Sorry, Im really not a fan of PG-13 rating and giving studios a pass while waiting for the Directors Cut. I'd rather skip the film and catch it streaming later. |

| It’s not really giving them a pass. I’m just pointing out that even if the theatrical release is toned down, it isn’t necessarily the end of the matter. | ||

| Seems like it was toned down to meet lower rating.. Getting smashed in reviews even. Tom Hardy complaining his favourite scenes didn't make the final cut. Sony did it again |

| To be honest.. The trailers looked appalling so it's not surprising to see these reviews. Shame though as venom is a character that needs to be done right and needs to be done right so we can finally see carnage etc.hit screen as spidey villains |

| I don’t see how they can possibly use Carnage as a villain in the sequel & maintain a PG-13 rating. | ||

| This is most unsettling. I already bought the tickets...figures Sony wouldn’t tinge their spotless track record of making bad superhero movies. | ||

Last I checked it was in the 20s on rotten tomatoes. Big shame  I think I will still end up going since it has been around 2 months since the last time I went to the movies. Just sell the entire franchise to Disney and be done with it. Honestly, how hard is it to make a decent movie about a very popular character. The people behind big budget movies make a lot of money and yet have no clue on how to come up with a good movie...mind-blowing |

| @moodswing Exactly, why not just hire a couple of these “top critics” from Rotten Tomatoes and run a screener by them before releasing a shitty final draft to the entire world? |

Quote:Originally Posted by CaptainCanuck I don't know if I would trust the critics (they loved Last Jedi) but at least run the movie by someone who understands the source material. I have trouble understanding how a "blockbuster" can go so far wrong. Do directors not realize the script sucks or the movie is going to be bad? I think the actors seem to get a sense of it. With all that money invested, you would think they can at least make a decent movie. |

They even have the benefit of knowing what story lines people like!!!(ok, may have to adjust a bit for non-comic book people but still) |

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC Whether you like it or not I'm going to try and convince you otherwise. Im a critic and my opinion has authority over yours.....sounds ridiculous right? Just like all critics are, ridiculous. If the subject matter interests me, I'll go see the movie...like Venom...I'll watch it..if I like it or hate it will be my own opinion and not because critics or an aggregate site like Rotten Tomatoes told me to one way or the other. Critics are just opinions...nothing else. |
