Part of it probably but Lady Gaga has Adam Driver killed after that period.

I am glad they are leaning into the buddy comedy of the first one.

And snagged somebody every bit as capable of chewing scenery as Tom Hardy, purple dialogue and Woody Harrelson are always a good combo

That Carnage looks a bit too similar to Venom imo. I think it's a factor of the film being so drat gloomy and dark. In the comics Carnage has an unmistakably oversaturated red.

His teeth are also black in the comics but I can see why they changed them for visibility

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

I'm sad they changed Woody Harrelson's haircut for the prison scenes. It was so delightfully goofy in Venom.

Looks pretty generic overall. Doesn’t really evoke excitement in me for Carnage’s film debut. Something about him looks off, too.

He's too thick I think. Needs to be more slender.

The slimy CG still looks like poo poo IMO. I truly hate that aspect. And the humour falls flat on its face for me.

This trailer made me realize that Hardy's Venom voice kinda reminds me of Tom Davis.

Given that teen movies tend to be trash to everyone not a teen, it’s impressive they’ve made a trailer so bad I can’t tell how much is the trailer and how much is the source material

Is that the kid from Cobra Kai? I swear to god he was transported straight out of Boy Meets World from the 90s.

It even has Mathew Lillard and Rachel Leigh Cook in it (albeit as different characters, Cook plays the mom.)

I wonder if they’ll adapt the story where visits a dominatrix. It’s also one of those mid-2000s comics that presents the idf and Israel as badass and hypercompetent.

Yes, there is a Russian astronaut who everyone treats like an idiot because she doesn’t speak English very well. I think she gets with the main character’s sister and they hide out on a ranch in Australia for some reason.

I feel like if I read it again, Y would strike me like a Joss Whedon show.

There was a Sliders episode where this happens, and society just went on as normal.
The surviving men were turned into breeders, and women just went on doing normal jobs and such.
Funny that half the population just dying makes it look as bad like the Walking Dead.

One my god those are some old rear end teens. Two the kid looks like a typical boring stoner. Just make him take a shower and shave and he doesn’t look that bad.

Weird. Also it’s so ugly looking.

I don’t remember the idf being portrayed as hyper competent, only as the murderous villainous thugs they are, just like in real life.

When are they portrayed as bad rear end?

There are never any teenagers in a teen movie or show.
Always early 20s.

When they alone succeed at finding and attacking the heroes multiple times. Also I think Israel is portrayed as being the most stable post-collapse country. I might be getting that mixed up with something else from the era.

I get that they’re the bad guys, but it seems like a portrayal with some admiration, whereas a more accurate version would just be them dropping white phosphorus on the hotel where the heroes are staying.

It's the main reason Superbad is so effective, IMO. Having Evan and Fogell be actual high school aged kids made them feel so much more vulnerable in all of the situations they were in.

I'm gonna assume you've never seen She's All That. The big joke about that movie is that Rachael Leigh Cook is seen as super gross because she wears glasses, dude! And overalls! And she, like...paints! Ugh! She's the ugliest girl is school! Anyone but her!

But then, check this, she gets a makeover (new dress, brushes her hair, a little makeup), and whoa! She's a total knockout!

Yeah, no poo poo, she's Rachael Leigh Cook. It was spoofed in a huge way in Not Another Teen Movie.
