Venom: The Last Dance Breakdown

👋 Welcome back! This is a breakdown of Venom: The Last Dance, covering everything from Null and the Symbiotes to the Spiderverse and MCU connections.

🔑 The film opens with Null, the god of the Symbiotes, imprisoned in his throne world of Clintar. He seeks the Codex, which is key to his freedom and threatens to annihilate every living planet.

📖 Null was created by Donnie Kates and first appeared in Venom Volume 4, Number 3 in 2018. His backstory is explored in the King in Black storyline from 2020-2021.

🌌 In the comics, Null decapitates a Celestial, creating the All-Black necro sword, which is referenced in the film. However, the MCU cannot fully connect to symbiote mythology due to contractual limitations.

⚔️ Null refers to himself as the "slicer of worlds," indicating his connection to the All-Black sword. The film shows corpses of past symbiote experiments, serving as a warning to others.

🌍 The throne world of Null is an artificial planet he created, and his reign ended when two symbiote dragons were stopped by Thor. This led to the symbiotes bonding with good hosts and rebelling against Null.

💔 The Codex represents the connection between a symbiote and its host, preserving the host's consciousness. In this film, Eddie and Venom's love is what traps Null in darkness.

🦠 The Xenophages, introduced in Venom: The Hunted, are a feral alien species that hunt symbiotes. They are depicted accurately in the film, although some aspects are altered.

🌌 The film suggests that Null poses a threat not just to Venom's universe but also to the MCU, potentially setting up future Spider-Man films.

🏙️ The film opens in the 616 MCU universe, referencing the blip and hinting at Null's threat to Spider-Man's universe.

🎭 Eddie Brock's backstory is tied to his past in New York, hinting at corruption and his struggles as a journalist.

🎉 In Las Vegas, Eddie and Venom enjoy a comedic road trip, with Venom getting addicted to slot machines and dancing to ABBA.

💥 The climax involves a battle at Area 51, where various symbiotes are unleashed, leading to chaos and destruction.

🦸‍♂️ The film ends with Eddie returning to New York, reflecting on his journey with Venom, while hints at future stories involving Null and the Symbiotes remain.

🔮 The future of the Symbiotes and Null may intertwine with Spider-Man, potentially leading to new adventures in the MCU.
