I have to say I agree. The trailer does nothing for me. To be honest, I never liked the character of Venom, so this idea never appealed to me. Also, I'm not what you'd call a fan of Tom Hardy (he of Star Trek Nemesis!), so I will likely sit this one out.
Of course, my kids have other ideas, so...
Can't get excited about this one. I was never a fan of the character, and I'm not much a fan of Tom Hardy either. I'm sure I will skip this one, maybe catching it on video or cable if the reviews are good.
