Yeah, reavant, thats pretty much wrong in this case. Venom sucked in spidey 3, because they completely fucked up the character's personality and motivation. It's the costume and big nasty teeth which are iconic, not his size. Turned him into a cookie cutter villain, instead of the psychologicaly complex character he is supposed to be. I don't blame raimi for that as I said, because he was pretty much forced by avi arid to put venom in the movie.
Venom shouldn't have gotten involved with spidey, and they should have saved the rest of his story for the fourth film, where they would have had more room to develop his character.
Oh, and I didn't like how Eddie Brock was portrayed either. Brock was never the cowardly, sniveling little weasel type. He was a man with a strong sense of justice, which ties into the venom character.
Hopefully all this gets recognized for this spin-off.
