Doesn't Doctor Octopus look like David Lynch in the preview? I don't know if it's the hair, glasses, or expression...

Hey, I think this dude from "scream2" and "go" could play a mean eddie brock...and it'd work, 'cos he's got that "could go crazy at any second look about him, and he's also bigger than tobey.M, his name's Timothy Olyphant, if u don't know who I'm talking about, there's some pics here:

do u agree?

Actually, I could see Olyphant playing a killer Carnage. Good suggestion.

Where I agree there that he COULD have a pretty good carnage personality goin on....I gotta say, I think he's just too big to be "cletus"....as for Eddie, I still think it's all there...
Who could play carnage....? Conan Obrien...?? heh-heh, actually, I got a good one...steve buscemi....make him all mental like he was (meant to be) in con-air...

I'm confused. Are we talking about the same Timothy Olyphant? He's kind of a skinny, wirey dude. He's not big at all. Venom is one big ball of muscle. I don't think he could pull that off.

His hair and attitude in Go make him perfect for Carnage. I think he's the right build too.

Watch Rock Star where he's wearing tight, 80's clothes and tell me he's too big for Cletus.

true, although, by bigger, I meant mostly taller, and, well, he also IS just a little more well built than Tobey.M....also, look at it this way, it's not "venom" he would be playing, but but Eddie Brock....although I considered what you said, and I'll agree that he can look just about crazy enough to pull off carnage, but, carnage will never happen, I don't think, until a successfull venom appearance or role in one of the spiderman movies....the whole venom thing's probably just not gonna happen...cool as shit if it did tho, I just don't think they'll go through that many spiderman films.

I'd still like to see him as Carnage. It's a good casting decision, even if you wanted him for another role. LOL.

As for the taller thing, Hugh Jackman is taller than James Marsden and they pulled that off.:)

Who ever played cletus would have to act very twisted, and be constanly twiching, that would be perfect:)
