tetrahedron:
i think it would detract from the story, actually.  the appealing thing about heroes is that they are basically like us - regular people with regular lives - who get put into extrordinary situations and, though they're like us, react in a way that most of us wouldn't.  such as:  peter's life sucks a lot; every time he gets close to anyone they end up in massive danger, his best friend wants his girlfriend but hates his alter-ego, etc.  he gives up, but can't face himself afterward.  he's a super-hero, not an emo-kid.  he can be emotional, but only if he's eventually heroic.  otherwise we'd feel gyped and lied to.

messeduplilkid:
And we're saying he's an emo kid just because he's wearing his hair a bit different? Sterotyping isnt fun (IMHO)

One of the best points that one of my english teachers made about films was that they will never be able to have charchters express certain things (IE: being thirsty without being obvious or obstrusive). Maybe their just trying to match emotion with certain charchteristics. Here I suppose with the new Parker look, he looks "emo" because it helps portray his psyche as of late. Just little reminders that even if he dosent say that he's sad or angry or depressed, his body langauge and in this case how he dress (wears his hair etc.) shows it.

He is still spidey, no matter how he wears his hair.

tetrahedron:
good point.  i need to see the movie before i comment on it... ;)

DavidGrohl:
Gah!  I wish it was Carnage instead of Venom . . Carnage is just so much cooler.  

  Anyhow, Venom IS only Venom when he's Mr. Brock.  They look much different as well.

As you can see, the actual Venom is much more muscular, and has an enormous toungue and a crazy mouth.

tetrahedron:
carnage is cooler?  i'm afraid i must disagree... venom is a deeper, more complex character.  he even turns hero sometimes and has a (pretty twisted) code of morality.  
good links.
