I saw the previews for this movie and it looks pretty cool!
Here is a history about Venom (the dark Spider-Man)
In the comic books, Spider-Man came back from battles with aliens on another planet with a new look. He had to find a way to get his web powers back (temporarily lost) while on the planet and was told about a lab with technology that could repair it. Unfortuately, he discovered the wrong machine and release a strange alien life form that binded to his body. This turned his suit a different color but gave him unlimited webs. His suit was dark and more menacing. He went about his routine like normal once back on Earth, but the people just didn't like the new Spider-Man. He eventually found out the suit was reading his thoughts and could act on its own at night, so got rid of it (with the help of Mr. Fantastic). The alien/suit escaped, however. Eventually Eddie Brock (reporter who hated Spider-Man after being humiliated in public indirectly by him) was discovered by the suit and taken over by it. Both now hating Spider-Man, they teamed up to form Venom
This is based on what I remember reading from the comic books a while ago, so I'm not sure if I missed anything
Hopefully the movie will explain this! Either that or they will just do a "based-on" story

I am actually just getting into comics. I went to a convention with my aunt's boyfriend and it was awesome. So many comics to go through. Obi-Wan and Vader were fighting on the side of the highway to get some attention.

As am I. Now after seeing the new Batman movie, I am getting deeper into his story. Here's some more tidbits about the movie.
Bryce Dallas Howard (The Village: Blind Girl) will make at least an appearance as Gwen Stacy. IN the comic books, Gwen Stacy was Parker's other love who was thrown off a building by The Green Goblin and was killed. She is a very important character to the personality of Peter. Also, Sandman will make an appearance, (can't remember actor) as well as Green Goblin ala Harry Osborne. There are many speculations that this is the last movie, but I think that one more will do for the Spidey vs. Greenie 2 saga. It was a very important part, and I actually have the final comic of that saga. Very cool!

Yeah, but I believe I heard somewhere that Raimi doesn't particuarly like the Ultimate series, and if that is true, you wont' be seeing it in the movie.
Release Date is May 4, 2007.
