So after the new trailer it seems like they are trying to go pretty dark. But how dark can they go with a PG13 rating? I mean no way its going to be R right? No blood and cut aways seem to be the way they are going.

Both Batman and Batman Returns were PG13 back in the day. I assume this is the dark they mean rather than the old gore, gore, violence, voilence. You'd think studios would have more spine in a post Deadpool/Logan world.

I know what you mean. But since it seems like they chop up and eat plenty of people in the trailers I was wondering if they would go full blood and gore. Im sure it will be fine without any but I was hoping they might take a chance. But than again this is Hollywood so I shouldnr expect much.

I think it looks pretty good. I will anticipate the bits where Venom turns into Tom Hardy.

It's Tom Hardy that's drawn my interest to it. As you would probably gather by my previous comment. I think he could bring some depth to the comic book film. And I do think it's looking better trailer by trailer. You should give it a wee look.

I think they are def going to have one more trailer. Hopefully it will bring in those that are still on the fence.

I just can't see any Spider-Man or Spider-Man spinoff going the R-rated route. It's a completely different audience than Logan or Deadpool. Even Logan was a risky venture, though I think many always thought Wolverine was neutered by the genre. I mean, how can you make a combat scenes with guy with giant knives for hands bloodless?
Also, I think that you can get right up to the edge of an R with PG-13 to the degree that most folks wouldn't notice. You can leave in a substantial amount of violence as long as there are no F-bombs or too much skin.

Well arent we supposed to have Venom eating people and ripping them apart? Same concept as Wolverine except with claws and a giant mouth. But yeah I dont think they will go the R route at all. Many cut away shots for sure and no blood.

So Sony confirmed its PG13 'to reach as many people as possible' and the director said he wanted a R Venom. So hopefully we can get an R home release but in cinema its def going to be PG13 unfortunately. :(

I remember them talking about a similar thing back in the early days of Nolan's Batman trilogy. This kinda thing would be interesting but it never happens.

I knew the movie would be a ss when I read they were not using Carnage as the villain. Since they are using Riot, Agony, Lasher, Phage, and Scream I knew this would be a wait for redbox film.

Well I think they are trying to push for a franchise. I think it would have worked really well if they went with a dark R to stand out more and please the hardcore fans.

Even those films had very adult themes and blood, well I know Batman Returns did. It was minor bleeding, but still there. The thing is you could get away with more back in the 80's & early 90's with a PG-13 rating. There were PG-13 movies with heavy swearing and violence back then, like La Bamba for example.
