Whoa. I wake up today and find this on the forum? Heh. Lucky.
But to be fair, I was never a big fan of the alien symbiote costume. Oh sure, it was an interesting story when it first came out. But as it became a recurring plot point in the Spider-man comics, it simply became annoying, especially when it became Venom (still the most annoying and overrated villain of all time IMO).
Still, I'm interested to see what Sam Raimi does with it. The trailer looked really good, especially the black costume, which at first bothered me, but in retrospect looks really good in motion onscreen. I think it's too early to judge about Sandman, but the one scene of his sandform on the street gave me goosebumps! I'm curious to see how Thomas Hayden Church portrays this long time Spidey villain. And speaking of villains, I think it's quite obvious that Harry is the main one in this third installment, and not Topher Grace as people were led to believe. I'm still hoping Grace is not Eddie Brock as people are reporting, as I really really don't want to see Venom on the big screen.
