After taking a week off for a very stressful Election Week, we're back with the zaniest and silliest movie we could watch. That's right! We're finally taking on the 2018 MASTERPIECE that is Venom! Does this film make one iota of sense? Does Tom Hardy know what he's doing in this movie as Eddie Brock? Why is Eddie and the Symbiote's relationship the best thing about this mess of a movie? (Also, do we ship it?) We also discuss the news of the Spider-Man: Miles Morales game launch, Tom Holland starting filming on his third Spider-Man film, and much more!

To tie in with the Absolute Carnage storyline, Anthony & Doc tackle Carnage himself, CLETUS KASADY! What treatment is there for a deranged, amoral serial killer bonded to a symbiote? Doc has the answers! Listen now!

SHOW NOTES:

• Intro

  • Shoutout to Cage’s Kiss podcast – Every episode covers another Nicolas Cage film

• Background (02:36)

  • Cletus Kasady created by David Michelinie and Erik Larsen in The Amazing Spider-Man #344 (March 1991)

    • Created because Michelinie wanted to kill off Eddie Brock in ASM 400, but he was too popular – Aunt May killed off instead

  • Born in Ravencroft Asylum, but his heart stopped for a few minutes until he was revived by an ancient evil who foresaw that Cletus would be the one to free him

  • As a child, he pushed his grandmother down a flight of stairs and killed her, threw a hair dryer in the bathtub with his mother, and killed his mother’s dog with a drill

  • His father went to jail for beating his mother, so he was raised in an orphanage, which he burned down after killing the administrator

  • Grew up to become a serial killer, and shared a cell at Ryker’s with Eddie Brock – when the Venom symbiote rebonded with him, a piece broke off and merged with Kasady, creating Carnage

  • Spider-Man and Venom teamed up to defeat him, and the symbiote was thought to be destroyed, but it was bonded to his blood

  • “Maximum Carnage” - he broke out of the Vault and joined other villains to take over New York, until he was defeated by a collection of heroes

  • Later being held in the Raft – escaped, but grabbed by Sentry, flown out of the atmosphere, and ripped in half

  • Repeatedly captured, breaks out, and kills again

  • AXIS – morality inverted and becomes a hero who sacrifices himself to save humanity from the inverted X-Men

  • Absolute Carnage – symbiote returns and bonds with the aforementioned ancient evil to wreak havoc

• Issues (10:20)

  • Displays Conduct Disorder as a child – intervention could have prevented further problems

  • Nihilist mindset – believes laws are meaningless, and only chaos is true freedom (26:15)

  • Symbiote and its impact on his mental state – (34:30)

• Break

  • Plugs for Deleter, Play Comics, and Popcorn Psychology

• Treatment (39:55)

  • In-universe

  • Out of universe (47:10)

• Skit (54:29)

THAT NEW VENOM TRAILER, THOUGH. That provokes me to speak my thoughts on it, how I really feel about a Venom spin-off, and why the Spider-Man films of yesteryear that starred Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire either worked or completely failed.
