3D and superhero movies are like chocolate and peanut butter: two normally good tastes that go great together. But then again, Venom is no ordinary comic book movie, because as the trailers have told us, the world has enough superheroes. So there’s a chance that taking a spin in the third dimension with this Spider-Man adjacent universe could be something unlike anything we’ve already seen. Or… it could be the exact metaphor you’ve been quoting from the now infamous trailer.
Which means court is in session, as it’s time to ask and answer one of our favorite questions: to 3D or not to 3D? If you’re interested in seeing how Venom works as a movie, you can find out as you read our official review. But from this point on, it’s 3D time, as we put our glasses on and tell you whether or not Eddie Brock’s adventures are worth your hard earned 3D dollar.
Picture this scenario: your anti-hero has the power to change into a super powered monster that shoots strands of goo towards his enemies. You can see why Venom is a perfect fit, as the spectacle factor of this film and source material lends itself to a potentially fantastic 3D conversion. With a lot of action, both human and symbiote related, ready to pop off of the screen, this couldn’t be a better fit for the 3D format.
