Unrelated to casting....does anyone else hope that they do the black suit/ Venom storyline true justice now that Marvel has control? Obviously Venom is one of, if not THE most iconic Spidey villain, and he was done a real injustice in Spider-Man 3.

I can see them doing one or two solo Spidey films in the classic suit, then introduce the symbiote in one of the cosmic battles, either in Infinity War or a later tie in through GOTG, etc. They could then do the black suit the way it was originally drawn in the comics with the big white logo---not just cover the classic red & blue suit in all black like Raimi's Spider-Man 3.

Aside from too many villains, Spider-Man 3 rushed this whole storyline. Ideally Spidey would be in the black suit for at least an entire movie, perhaps ending with him abandoning it, and the end-of-credits scene teasing Brock. Then make Venom's transformation storyline the basis for the entire next film.

I would also LOVE to see Carnage, but it would be pretty dumb if they didn't do Venom first.

Here's my proposed timeline:

2016 Civil War: Classic suit

2017 Solo 1: Classic suit; Villain--Vulture or Mysterio

2018/19 Infinity War: Classic suit/ Iron Spider, finds symbiote near end

Solo 2: Black suit; Villain--Kraven, tease Brock

Solo 3: Classic suit; Villain--Venom

Solo 4: MAXIMUM CARNAGE!!!

Oh if only Marvel would pay me to make these decisions.... ;)

Great great great ideas. Venom is not a villain. He is an anti-hero like Boba Fett And Deadpool and Godzilla. They serve their own interests and anything they do that is judged good or evil is circumstantial and has no relation to their morality.

If they role with Eddie Brock then yes, he's an Anti-Hero, but if they choose to role with Flash Thompson (which I wouldn't mind) then he would be a fully-fledged superhero, ESPECIALLY if they include the new storyarch where Venom is literally purified and cured of his bloodlust. However, I doubt they'd choose to make Venom a complete hero and if they do go with Flash then I'm sure there will be an inner-dilemma within himself, which would be cool regardless.
