“how is peppermint patty a lesbian if she has a crush on charlie brown” like you don’t know any lesbians who are obsessed with some weird sad little guy
If you are making a boy character into a girl character for a gender swap art thing you better put that bulk back on that girl or so help me. You think girls are allergic to muscles? To fat? Do you think big bulky butch women are imaginary or something?? If that boy is as wide as a fridge that girl better be a deep freezer. Cowardice. Rights for women that are built like a tank!
This is fascinating and I love the part with the mushrooms and the worms if this really works but my favorite part is that we spent decades like “oh no….oil is soaking into fur and feathers….if only we had something that could soak up all this oil”
That says “5 years later, Sony still doesn’t understand why it’s biggest spider-verse hit worked”
And the article mainly talks about how the Venom films are self contained and don’t try to be films in a cinematic universe. They have a clear identity. Yes, there is no Spider-Man in them, and that’s okay because they knew what they wanted to do without him when they made the films. They even say at one point “the Venom films are not for everyone, but at least they know what they are”
This is something I personally have talked about many times. And I’ve seen other Venom fans talk about. And what I’m seeing MCU fans starting to say more and more now. The movies work when they have a clear story and identity and don’t feel interchangeable or formulaic.
You could take any Disney plus marvel show or ‘phase 4’ movie and switch the characters around and the story would probably stay largely the same, or at least feel the same. We all know what I mean right? The characters all make quips like Tony Stark no matter if it is in character or not. They talk and act the same.
But the Venom films? You couldn’t take Tom Hardy’s Eddie and swap him with the mcu cast. He acts so differently than 90% of them, he wouldn’t fit in. He’s fucking weird and unhinged and is very much Tom Hardy’s brain child.

Also the Venom movies worked because queer people liked them. The films were hugely popular with LGBT audiences but you didn’t hear that from me 👀👀👀👀
