That's what I thought, ita, but the trailer is muddying the waters for me.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
For someone reason I was thinking it opened on the 30th.

As was I. I saw billboards and trailers and posters and everything.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They changed it, I read, but after all the posters went up.

Hey. New board.
I'm just gonna say...
Spider-Man fought something named Evil Suit? That is both awesome and... not.
t /still doesn't like Peter Parker much, so has read a very very small number of Spidey comics.

Teppy was just referring to Venom in his alien symbiote form. It takes over Peter first (hence, Spidey vs. Evil Suit) before it bonds to Eddie Brock and they become Venom.
I wonder if they'll still do the alien symbiote thing. They did set up the astronaut guy in the last movie.
Why don't you like Peter Parker?

Hey. New board.
Why don't you like Peter Parker?
I have no idea. I just know that I had no interest in continuing after the first volume of Ultimate Spider-Man, whereas, for example, I read 9 volumes of Ultimate X-Men in a week (an expensive week) and started buying the comics individually after that. Similarly, I enjoyed both Spider-Man movies, but have no interest in ever seeing them again, while I've seen Batman Begins at least 5 times since it came out, and the X-Men movies probably 5-10 times each.
His character just doesn't do much for me. Though it's kind of cute that Kitty has a crush on him in the Ultimate-verse.
And "Oh" about the evil suit. See, I thought Venom was always a possessed Spider-Man. I though it was all very Phoenix that way. Certainly the trailer seemed to concentrate on Spidey in the evil suit, so my assumption was not immediately discounted by it. Was there a scene with a separate Venom I missed?

Not in the trailer. Topher Grace looking up and saying, "Parker," possibly right before the symbiote falls on him or something, is the only reference.

If I'm not mistaken, that was John Jameson. Which would actually be setting up Man-Wolf, rather than Venom. Please, no.
