It may not get made, but having the villain lead is not impossible; anybody ever watch Dexter? You're feelings are always split; do you like the serial killer because he kills other serial killers, or do you hate him because no matter what the cause, it's wrong? Venom's the same; he turned "good" in his own maniacal sense... |

The only way I could see it working is if there are two of them; the normal villain we know and then maybe a secondary one coming from the same place hunting him down. You could delve into a back story of their existence then and learn that not their entire race is maniacal as him. But that is so similar to other stories it would probably suck anyway. |

sadly i am not liking this idea. unfortunately the best they can do is hand the spider-man franchise to someone else and pray it doesn't suck... which it will.
or just wait 10-15 years and restart the franchise. and i'm not really one for that either. batman, so far, has been the only restarted franchise that was better than the original. |

VENOM NO WAY!
I don't think they should make a venom spin-off I to agree with McFarlane he is a bad guy and that the best part about the villains in comic books.

NO VENOM.
Venom is cool. But he is a villian. They had to make him like the Punisher for it to work. That'd be lame. |

LEAVE IT ALONE
#1 fire Topher Grace, that was embarrassing. #2 McFarlane is spot on, the studios would ruin the character. The Catwoman analogy doesnt work on me because she never really seemed like a bad guy. Last time I checked, Spidey never dated Venom. #3 find another Spidey, and make the movie right.
Spiderman 3 sucked. |

agree with McFarlane. Frankly, it wouldn't get made anyway. Same reason why From Hell had to be changed so much from the graphic novel. Hollywood simply WON'T make big movies from the killer or bad guys point of view, Monster being the only exception. but i guess to have it from the villains pov in hollywood, it's got to be based on a true story. |

Though Sony is hot to spin SPIDER-MAN 3 villain Venom off into his own movie, Venom creator Todd McFarlane isn't so hot on the idea (UPDATE - a few readers have written it to clarify that McFarlane is credited as co-creating Venom with writer David Michelinie). Speaking to Newsarama, McFarlane says that making movies where the villain is the lead character isn't smar. "Those don't work. The reason they're so cool as a bad guy is because they're bad. And as soon as you try to give too much humanity to them, then you go, 'NO!'" McFarlane cites the infamous Halle Berry CATWOMAN as an example of how trying to spinoff a villain into a hero can result in a disaster. He also says that any new cinematic incarnation of Venom should have more of "a creep factor" than the Topher Grace version. The proposed VENOM movie might not ever happen and McFarlane isn't sure if it ever can. "I don't know if you can have a movie about a guy who goes out there and maims everybody and wins all the time." Good point and considering the dude created Venom, he should know a little bit about it. Do you think VENOM is a good idea? I was all pumped up to see the character in SPIDER-MAN 3 but was colossally let down when I saw the final product.
