That PayPal holiday ad on YouTube always catches me off guard and makes me think my headphones aren't working since it has no sound.

Venom isn't likely to be in No Way Home and hasn't been confirmed given the movie is just less then a month away.

They didn't have Thanos as the next villain in the second Avengers now didn't they? It's more likely he'll be a post credit scene or future MCU film whether it's a fourth Spider-Man film especially being both movies were just 3 months away.

I just watched Venom: Let There Be Carnage. It was more entertaining than I thought it would be (but not without its issues; several key events happen with no explanation, Venom and Carnage don't properly meet until the last 15 minutes or so, and Carnage has several powers that he gains out of nowhere and never uses again, like spinning fast enough to create a tornado), though I said something like "oh no, is Venom going to rap?" at one point. (thankfully, he did not)

I had seen the mid-credits scene on Youtube beforehand, but I'm interested to see how he'll be incorporated into Spider-Man: No Way Home. I'm guessing that he'll start out as one of the Sinister Six, since he thinks that Spider-Man murdered someone, only to switch sides at the end. (along with Doc Ock, if the trailers are any indication)

Admittedly, three Spider-Men, Doc Ock, and Venom vs. the Green Goblin, the Lizard, Sandman, and Electro seems a little one-sided in the heroes' favour, so I'm not sure if they'll go with that. I don't know if Venom will return to his own universe afterwards, or if he'll stay in the MCU - I could see it going either way, though I feel like his appearance in this will lead to him adopting the big white spider symbol on his chest.
the one thing that the world really and truly need is MCU Spidey bonded with Venom, then we can end up with Eddie having the spider symbol permanently.

and of course have them do a buddy cop type team up against whoever they want if Carnage stays away

I still stand with not liking Venom. It really missed the potential and opportunity to be R-Rated, more adult story and more serious tone. Instead Sony wanted to take a page from the MCU wanted to go with a PG-13, and quirky humor along with cringe such as "A turd in the wind".

Being R-rated it could have gone more all out in terms of blood and gore especially with the sequel especially with a title called Let There Be Carnage.

More like Let There Be Garbage.

Carnage in a PG-13 movie especially feels wrong. Yes I'm aware Carnage has been in cartoons even then in the 1994 animated series he was toned down to a madman rather than a serial killer.

That's just my opinion though and you guys have a right to disagree if you want but my opinion ain't changing.

Sony were such chickens not wanting to take the risk despite there having been the Deadpool movies, Joker and The Suicide Squad both which Fox and Warner Bros. took.

If the rumors are true, a lot of people will be pretty upset.

Potential No Way Home spoilers
They are saying one of the posts credits is Venom and Eddie at a bar talking about how cool it is to be in a universe with all these heroes they could team up with and be apart of. Only for them to get sent back home without ever meeting spider-man. With the symbiote leaving behind a piece of itself behind to set up a venom suit arc for Tom Holland.

Hilda is such a beautiful show.

I want everyone who hasn't seen it yet to go watch it.
I have already started watching Hilda and I very quickly recognized one of the actors.
I'm still reeling over the fact that Alfur's voice actor (Rasmus Hardiker) also voiced Xenoblade 2's Tora.

I love Hilda. Hands down one of my favorite current cartoons.

So glad it'll be ending with the third season. Quality over quantity. Certain it'll end on a fine closure as something like The Regular Show did and arguably Courage the Cowardly Dog (The last episode had both segments with Courage facing his first enemy which caused his trauma of everything he faces along with losing his parents and moral lesson how perfect doesn't exist and everyone should accept themselves for who they already are.

Meanwhile shows like Spongebob Squarepants, South Park, Family Guy and The Simpsons...

I've been paying attention to the leaks, and Venom really doesn't play a big role. The most he gets is a post credits scene, and if that rumor is to believed it's some dumb ****.

man I miss smash. I really want another fighting game I can get that excited over.

I really didn’t like it. I remember wishing that the two girl guest party members could join permanently (can’t remember their names), , I remember thinking the time skip at the end was really stupid, I thought the characters were either boring or annoying (looking at you Prompto), I hated how you couldn’t combo sword attacks unless you held down the friggin attack button, so much down time having Ignis drive me everywhere, I can’t get over how the Leviathan boss fight was just the Perfect Chaos fight from Sonic Adventure complete with Super Sonic Noctis, all the side quests were so god damn tedious for so little reward or story progression or character development… it’s just… I’m so glad they went on to make 7R. That’s what 15 should have been. And I hope 16 is closer to the Cloud’s modern adventure than Noctis’s.
Oh yeah and how the final parts were very streamlined was such an issue. Timeskip was a bad idea.

It had one of the most unique worlds ever made (seriously FFXV's take on a modern fantasy world really needs done again) and it went to waste. FFXIII is the same on that. RIP to Pulse and Cocoon.

FFXVI I do have faith on though (FFXIV team is leading this time so we are in good hands) and honestly going for a Game of Thrones/Witcher take on FF is a better direction than I AM CHAOS of FF Origin. If they were done right and had a consistent direction I would want another FF done by Nomura and his side but til then Yoshi and his team are better.

FFXV was a alright game but just like FFXIII was clearly made a generation too early.
