As Marvel Studios prepares for their 15th film (May’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2), and we’re just two weeks past Fox’s 14th X-Men-related film (Logan), there are still dozens of great characters that are waiting for their shots at cinematic adaptation (like say, Squirrel Girl — just sayin’!). One of Marvel’s most popular characters for the past 25-ish years has been Venom (who actually started life in the comics as the alien symbiote that Spider-Man acquired during 1984’s Secret Wars event). Topher Grace (of TV’s That 70s Show) played the character in 2007’s Spider-Man 3, but that film (and its barely Fresh Tomatometer score) is also blamed by some for ending what could have continued to be a lucrative franchise for both Sony Pictures and director Sam Raimi. Well, next year is Venom‘s 30th anniversary, so maybe we should have seen this coming: Sony Pictures has announced a release date of October 5, 2018 for Venom, claiming that date just as Warner Bros moved Aquaman from October 5th to December 21, 2018 (see above). That’ll be just over a year and a half from now, so it’s possible that Sony can produce a Venom movie by then, but with Spider-Man: Homecoming on the horizon, it’s unclear whether Venom will also be made with Marvel Studios, or if will it exist in its own non-Marvel universe (like their 2018 animated Spider-Man movie about Miles Morales). The Venom screenplay is currently being adapted by writers Scott Rosenberg (Con Air, Gone in Sixty Seconds) and Jeff Pinkner (cowriter of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and the Jumanji reboot, also for Sony). Besides that, we really know very little about the project. This was a week of mostly “pretty good” news, so Venom is this week’s “Rotten Idea,” but again, only marginally so.300 Part 3 Release Date 2018
The movie “300,” which was released in 2006, is one of the best epic movies of Hollywood. There are very few epic movies, whose sequels are going to be released in future and 300 is also one of them. The 2 nd part of this movie franchise, 300: Rise of an Empire, was released in 2014 and collected huge profit at box-office. It didn’t collect more than the 1 st part, but managed to collect large amount at box-office The reason for low collection of this movie might be because the main protagonist, remained alive in the end, while in the 1 st part, the main protagonist died, or audience didn’t accept the death of Leonidas (Gerard Butler), King of Sparta, and wanted to see him again in the 2 nd part. The 1 st part of this movie was based on the comic series, 300, which is written by Frank Miller and Lynn Varley, whereas, the 2 nd part of this franchise was based on another unreleased novel of Frank Miller, Xerxes.
