SMAC - SHOWS, MOVIES & CHICKS

This is so overdue. One of the coolest and most vicious villains in superhero history is very likely to get his own franchise.

With Heath Ledger's villainous Joker drawing attention and boxoffice dollars, Sony is moving forward with VENOM a potential SPIDER-MAN spinoff based on a bad guy, reports The Hollywod Reporter.

This is great news, as I really loved the VENOM comics. Like most fans, I was greatly disappointed by the way the character was treated and dealt with in SPIDER-MAN 3. According to THR TOPHER GRACE will NOT play VENOM in the spinoff, as Sony is aiming for a bigger star.

I keep you posted as this will certainly generate more interest and exciting news in the future...
