Venom: The Last Dance is nearing its release, and talk of the Marvel antihero has been happening in the marketing for the film, addressing comic book weaknesses that have been avoided in some other projects. Venom has been a popular character in Marvel media since the character debuted in Spider-Man comics in 1988. In addition to getting his own film franchise, the character has been featured in numerous television shows and video games, including one that seemed to avoid one of the character’s most prominent weaknesses.
In a new clip from the popular YouTube series Hot ones, A computer animated Venom from the hit film trilogy is eating spicy chicken wings. Notably, Venom’s weakness to fire and heat is shown in the clip. Eating the wings seems to burn Venom significantly, and he can be seen suffering throughout the video.
Notably, this feature of Venom’s weaknesses is not featured in the video game Spider-Man 2 Released for PlayStation 5 in 2023. Although Venom is canonically weak to high-frequency sound and fire, the PS5 video game is exempt from these weaknesses. The developers chose to make Venom invulnerable to flames in a move that received some controversy. This is not the case for the film version of the character based on this short clip.
What Venom’s Hot Ones reaction means
This video shows an understanding of Venom’s comic book history
Poison’s reaction to the wing on Hot ones is a fun marketing piece for the upcoming film, although it doesn’t necessarily mean anything major. Seeing a weak-to-fire symbiote is an amusing idea for the popular Chicken Wings talk show, And the video is funny and clever. By reacting strongly, and chugging milk, the unusually dark but comedic tone of the Poison Films is captured in this small clip that works as excellent marketing for The Last Dance.
Clearly, Tom Hardy and the crew are involved with the upcoming film, which Hardy confirmed will be his last Poison Appearance, are striving to be faithful to the character. Even such an idea could only grow from a natural understanding of Venom and his powers. Although the films took an unusual approach to the antihero, divorcing him completely from Spider-Man, it seems that the creators still feel that details like Venom’s weakness are fundamental to the character.
Our take on the Venom Hot Ones crossover video
The new clip suggests great love and care for the gifted character
The conclusion to the US Poison Trilogy is an exciting prospect after two strange and exciting installments. Despite many dark elements, The Poison Films had a strange light heart, And this video suggests that this pattern will follow with the new film. This version of Venom is not the terrifying force he often is in the comics. However, there are elements of strength and weakness that it seems Venom: The Last Dance Will be loyal to. If the clip is anything to go by, the marketing for the film will certainly be worth checking out.
