When I first heard about Venom coming to the big screen, I was thrilled. He has always been one of my favorite Marvel characters. Then as the trailers were releasing, I admit, I had mixed feelings. The final trailer put my concerns to rest and I headed to the theaters to see this movie. Boy, am I glad I did, because I loved it! I think that Venom is a must see for any Marvel comic book fan! I was thrilled when a copy showed up at my doorstep – and you know I had to immediately check out the bonus features!

Bonus Features

My favorite thing about picking up a movie on home release is all the bonus features. I feel like the deleted scenes always bring the movie to another place for me – and often tie things together more. But for Venom, what I was most excited about was Venom mode! I love Easter Eggs and having Venom point them out for me – even better. I have read many Venom comics but there were a couple of references I missed. This is a MUST WATCH mode for Venom fans!

Venom Mode: When selecting this mode the film will engage informative pop-ups throughout the film to provide insight on the movie’s relationship to the comics, and to reveal hidden references that even a seasoned Venom-fan may have missed!

Venom Holds Up

Watching Venom for a second time, everything really held up for me. I know there have been some mixed reviews out there, but for me, I think I enjoyed it even more. All of the comic book nods really brought this film home for me. It is so much fun and I cannot wait to see more. Carnage is going to be amazing!
