I LIKE DEATHSTROKE MOVIE.
OSCURO - 11/28/2009, 12:36 PM
i perfer Topher Grace but Dominic Purcell is my second choice
flames809 - 11/28/2009, 2:53 PM
Uh thanks for putting in fan fic instead of the front page like the poll friggin was!
Ozymandias - 11/28/2009, 3:04 PM
Nooo, why would he win when he's such a sh!tty actor??? I'm all for Skarsgard!! Then Witwer!! Seriously can't believe Brock Lesnar got A vote let alone 38, that's [frick]ing crazy. I guess the reason Topher is so high is because people hate to see continuity screwed up, even if the casting is bad.
Ryden - 11/28/2009, 3:13 PM



SKARSGARD IS VENOM
Ryden - 11/28/2009, 3:15 PM
OZY @ Your right!!

If they put the VENOM POLL on front page, so should the results!!! ??????


RYDEN @ Sorry dude PURNELL is a billion times better and over 500 ppl agree!!

I'm a die-hard TRUE BLOOD fan, but NO to him, he's a perfect KAZAR THE SAVAGE dude!!

; D





PURNELL IS VENOM!!!
LEEE777 - 11/28/2009, 3:16 PM
@LEEE777:Exactly!If the poll is on the front page,the results should be also! A

Topher Grace for Venom in the spinoff!!!
Ozymandias - 11/28/2009, 3:22 PM
OZY @ Your right!!!

Well about the results lol!

What, you like TOPHER???!
LEEE777 - 11/28/2009, 3:22 PM
@LEEE777:Uh..yeah I said it in the article.^ I think he was good in Spiderman 3 ,defentley a good performance to me. Dominic Purcell just doesnt look like Eddie Brock or Venom to me.
Ozymandias - 11/28/2009, 3:26 PM
Topher Grace was THE worst possible actor that could have been chosen to play Venom and I honestly cannot believe he made second place!!

Skarsgard and Purcell are the two best choices IMO!
JoshW - 11/28/2009, 4:31 PM
Out of these choices here is how I would rank them for being the best Brock. Some of these choices I wouldn't consider WHATSOEVER like Brock Lesnar.

1st- Alexander Skarsgard
2nd- Sam Witwer
3rd- An Unknown
4th- Dominic Purcell
5th- Michael Fassbender
6th- Other
7th- Wentworth Miller
8th- Topher Grace
9th- Jensen Ackles
10th- Nick Stahl
11th- Vin Disel
12- Brock Lesnar

And whoever suggested Diesel or Lesnar are officialy the worst at casting anything EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ryden - 11/28/2009, 5:18 PM
Thanks CBM! Right where these results belong!
Ozymandias - 11/28/2009, 6:06 PM
brock lesner! ha ha ha ha, here comes the pain!
Rolanddeschain19 - 11/28/2009, 6:33 PM
how is topher grace still on that list, dont get me wrong he's a great actor and all but for venom, hell no unless they going for a eddie brock on crack then they got there man i guess
TiPsYrUs - 11/28/2009, 6:38 PM
I voted Skarsgard, he is good in truelood but he was a monster in generation kill, that part when he was running around acting like a plane, u have to see it to know what i mean, to go from a trained soilder to acting like a kid in a split second, that dude can act...
PhillyHulk - 11/28/2009, 7:10 PM
skarsgard's a good actor - generation kill and lee already said true blood and i wouldint mind if he did get the part but purcell does have the look of eddie brock and if he pulls off his character it could defo be a winner.
ukboy28 - 11/28/2009, 7:10 PM
Dominic Purcell is definatley the REAL Eddie Brock! (unless thr gonna do th Mac Gargan storyline, but i doubt it. i still really want a venom REBOOT, not spinoff. i mean how r they gonna spin it off from SM3 without making it completely retarded or screwed up to the point that it sucks more than SM3?)

and how is topher grace in second? i really didnt like him as eddie brock. wen i saw SM3, i wuz like "HAHAHAHAHA, ITS ERIC FORMAN! how is he gonna go from 'scrawny dumbass' to 'strong jerkass?!'" i really couldnt see that happening.

RockNRollCC - 11/28/2009, 7:44 PM
@torched: Easy. He's a Scrawny Dumbass TRYING to play a Strong Jerkass that only came across as a Ridiculous Cockass. And so, the trifecta is complete.

Is it just me or does Purcell's head look freakin' huge for his body?
MultiPurposePoni - 11/28/2009, 8:06 PM
purcell blows he would be a horrible venom guys a horrible actor i could never imagine him talkin with the symbiote wrapped around his head
jimthefan - 11/28/2009, 8:12 PM
dominic purcell would be great for the part, he just needs a blonde flat top, not too light though, and to buff up a bit
deadpool21 - 11/28/2009, 8:12 PM
Topher Grace 2nd???...........who in the Hell fu-cked that up? didn't those voters see Spiderman 3?

P.S. Purcell is great....that's the Built we need on Ediie Brock(Venom)....not a dude going Skinny contest with Peter Parker!
Kes - 11/28/2009, 8:25 PM
i liked topher.... :'(
Fartman - 11/28/2009, 8:27 PM
PUCELL is perfect for VENOM!!!!




As for SKARSGARD these are the good MARVEL parts for him, KAZAR & THUNDERSTRIKE, though THUNDERSTRIKE he'd hav'ta bulk up big time lol.




LEEE777 - 11/28/2009, 8:50 PM
@Ozy I have great respect for u Ozy....but for some reason....i felt i lost some when u said u liked Topher in Spiderman 3! XD lol!
Kes - 11/28/2009, 9:13 PM
Sam Witwer? Really?! What are we smoking?
Brimstoner - 11/28/2009, 10:25 PM
Proof that there was something wrong with this poll: Topher Grace got 172 votes!!


WTF?!!

TonyDark - 11/28/2009, 11:02 PM
TOPHER was one of the worst casting choices in cbm history as VENOM, total suck-o-meter, SAM WITWER should never ever be allowed near a cbm character ever again after DOOMSDAY!

: D
LEEE777 - 11/28/2009, 11:37 PM
The main reason I think people voted for Grace is because a lot of people want to keep continuity between the Venom spin-off and Spider-Man 3, like Ryden said before.

I myself thought Topher did a very good job as Brock, BUT WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE FILM, so don't flame me or attack me for saying I liked his performance. I did like it, but only because they used Eddie/Venom as a mirror image of Peter/Spidey, and Grace did very well with that characterization.

But, since Spidey won't be in the spin-off, it doesn't make sense to use that same mirror-image portrayal, so they need to make Venom more primal, vicious, and sinister, which Topher wouldn't work well with, so out he goes. Topher's a great actor, but he doesn't fit Venom's animalistic qualities.

Alexander Skarsgard for Venom, then Sam Witwer, then Purcell.

Just my 2 cents :)
InTylerWeTrust82 - 11/29/2009, 1:41 AM
I'm a little disappointed there was no option for:

"Please God No! Don't make this film!"

Personally I wish that fandom would collectively, en masse, put the message across to these studios that unless Marvel is doing them, we don't want to see them.

But as long as we're prepared to shell out for any old rubbish, then I guess they'll keep producing any old rubbish...
KeithM - 11/29/2009, 5:34 AM
@Keith: That's exactly why I didn't vote, that option wasn't listed :)
MultiPurposePoni - 11/29/2009, 8:12 AM
gay

Ryguy88 - 11/29/2009, 12:46 PM
2.Topher Grace-172 Votes (15.82%)Really WTF was I the only one who thought Spiderman 3 sucked balls?????
Niem8211 - 11/29/2009, 1:51 PM
topher might make a good pussied-down brock...neurotic and all..but he sucks as venom...and also he was too much 'that 70s show' in spidey 3...i rather an ignorant ass as brock...not a teenybopper...hence purcell or skaarsgard
Anil Rickly - 11/29/2009, 5:16 PM
nobody mention dwayne johnson for venom. by the way I would pick Matthew Lillard for Carnage.
GrimReaper90 - 11/30/2009, 9:20 AM
HOLY ROFL@Topher Grace actually getting votes for being Venom again. Venom is my second favorite comic book character ever, and Topher was horrible. Now Dominic? He doesn't necessarily look like Eddie Brock, but a little hair piece is no big. He's got the build. As long as they ACTUALLY give him his dark and scary voice.
