Once again, critics are wildly put of touch with what the average moviegoer wants.

none of you are the average moviegoer. I would hesitate to call you normal moviegoers

ericvilas

once again, the Tumblr monsterfucker niche is wildly out of touch with what the average moviegoer wants.

And that's so fucking valid.

We're all in our monsterfucker echo chamber.

Waitwaitwaitno. Are we just casually forgetting that the first Venom made 850 million worldwide, in its theatrical run alone? True, only 200 of that was in the US, but that's still double the budget right there. Are we setting aside that Venom 2 had the largest opening weekend numbers of any movie since the beginning of the pandemic? Are we just going to NOT MENTION that the movie has already made its $110 million budget back? I would like to draw your attention to this quote from Forbes (which described it as a "horror/fantasy/romcom/superhero flick"): "Credit where credit is due, Sony was right to bet on a solo Venom movie. As noted yesterday, audiences liked Venom more than critics, pushing the Tom Hardy/Michelle Williams origin story to $213.5 million domestic and (thanks to a bonkers-huge $269 million in China) $854 million worldwide on a $90 million budget. But even those of us who didn’t entirely endorse the film tipped our hat to Hardy’s bonkers performance and the film’s flirtations with outright camp and metaphorical queer romance amid an otherwise conventional superhero origin story plot. With Hardy co-writing the film with Kelly Marcel, Let There Be Carnage has been (correctly) sold as 95 minutes of “just what you liked about the last movie.” This was a case of a studio learning the right lessons from a blow-out success." This is not a tumblr thing. This is not an echo chamber thing. Sony has just tested monsterfuckers as a viable mainstream demographic target and the results were "Oh my yes." This is not monstercoding. This is not monsterbaiting.

This movie used VENOM at a PRIDE RAVE in its PROMOTIONAL MATERIAL.

This is man and monster and they're both played by Tom Hardy, who turned the first movie into a monsterfucking movie in spite of the director's best efforts. This being put out by a studio that saw the response to first movie, kicked the director out, gave Tom Hardy free reign on the script, and hired fucking GOLLUM to direct. And when I refer to Andy Serkis as Gollum, I am not belittling him, but reminding you that this is a man who understands how to portray monsters, and has, in fact, played several.

This, my fellow denizens, is MAINSTREAM MONSTERFUCKERY, and has already turned a profit in its first week.

Prepare yourself, monsterfuckers. You are about to experience a renaissance of straightforward (or, y'know, prehensile) monsterfucking cinema.

Critics are just people that get paid to have opinions. That doesn’t make their opinions fact. Looking forward to this one.

Are we just forgetting that time a movie where a woman fucks a monster on screen won an Oscar?

#Loving being here rn #Hype hype hype #Make movies for the fans

Idk if Tom Hardy's Eddie would call Venom "love" like comic Eddie but he for sure would call them "babe"

So like now that Sony knows that appealing to its queer fans gets them 100M in 5 days I hope they go even HARDER with the Symbrock content in Venom 3. I'm talking pet names, date nights, Venom as Eddie's clothes, wedding ring, parenting together, you the works!

They should just get rid of all the action and show us two hours of them being domestic husbands. I wanna see a wedding ceremony, I wanna see double dates with Anne and Dan, Eddie walking around, seemingly alone, but Venom holding his hand, cooking together.

sour-ladybug

Eddie should also be shirtless half the time for comic accuracy

This is so intentionally framed as if Venom has an arm around Eddie. LIKE THE WEIGHT OF IT. It looks so solidly there. They easily could've had Venom come out from behind like usual. THIS IS INTENTIONAL
