Listen, we've been waiting to see Venom fight Carnage in Venom 2: LEt There Be Carnage since that post credit scene and it is FINALLY time! Of course, that means I need to try and predict who will WIN. Most of you likely assume you know that answer already. It's Venom. You know, the "hero" of our story. Yet, WHY will he win? What does Venom have over Carnage, besides plot armor? Theorist, it goes a whole lot deeper!

"How did you beat Carnage?" "We gave him Lukimeia" "...oh"
Haha, lol. I'm guessing that's how Venom beat him when he summoned Knull. CONTEXT: Venom absorbed everyone's Codex and forged a Necrosword, cutting Carnage in half, and supposedly giving him Lukimea with it. XD
"That'll do it."
L o L
or a hemotoxic venom
i laughed way too much at this xD
Fun fact(or not so “fun”): The reason why venom was so scared of carnage was bc any offspring that the klyntar race/symbiotes have are always stronger physically
Yup
You’ve taught me so much in one comment.
Good lore info!
Fun fact venom has never actually been afraid of carnage.
Name checks out
A little detail I noticed: If you notice carefully, Venom actually gets on Eddie's body like an exoskeleton, sort of like Iron Man's nanotech suit. However, Carnage literally tears apart Cletus' body when he takes control over stuff. This shows that Venom actually has respect for its host while Carnage is just a mindless rogue symbiote, not even caring about its host.
I love that detail. It’s subtle foreshadowing, I guess.
That’s a really cool detail :0
This aged well.
Neat
Foooood
What's truly mindblowing is that this is exactly how Eddie and Venom won. They worked together while Cletus and Carnage did not.
Yeah, MatPat kinda predicted this one as well.
They had Dan on their side
I’m really impressed, he was spot on
@@yukima920 yess lol same me too
Which is weird considering their bond was far greater than eddie and venom prior to the movie. Infact, the symbiote might be the only thing that cletus has a genuine love for.
MatPat: "Because it wasn't officially in the MCU, yet" Doctor Strange: "Be careful what you wish for Mat"
Right!? Crazy post credits scene

this series is about the power of friendship

He has family
The power of deeply abusive, controlling, unwanted and overall dysfunctional friendships.
@@e.d.5766 the only type I tolerate
Lol someone is s my little ponies fan!
Venom has a lot of advantages that most symbiotes don't have. Everything you mentioned in this video, to name a few. You also have to remember Venom burned through a lot of bodies. Eddie was a great match both in personality and physical. Venom is also inquisitive. He seems to be the only symbiote that is capable of making friends, who will help him.
When did venom burn through a lot of bodies it's on earth when they absolutely need a host home planet they don't and the stories have always been that venom bonded with spiderman and they un bonded because peter realized how bad venom is for him then venom moved onto flash or Eddie they happen to share that hate for spiderman too
@@vegetto7942 in the comics the main ones are Deadpool spiderman Eddie flash and there's more

Well guys, it turns out that Venom and Carnage were both weak to sound after all, but Venom had one power that Carnage didn’t have! The power of an ex wife and her new fiancé.🥰
Well, also the lack of marriage problems due to, well, no marriage.

“Man already having marriage problems?”
Why does any man get married in this day and age? I'm glad i never had enough interest to fall into the dating and marriage trap.
"Big strong biceps or Big strong thighs" Matpat: "Personality"
The psychological factor does make sense, like Man vs Nature stories. Venom would have to MacGyver a win an keep up, while Carnage would just physically overwhelm him with sheer ferocity.
In the comics, Carnage was so unique because Cassidy and Carnage both loved to murder and cause havoc. They had either the deepest or second deeoest symbiote bond in the comics. In the movie they were just a guy inside an alien. In the comics they were one. While I agree venom would win, just not the cheesy way they did in the movie.
I like how Mat explored the psychological aspect. Because in the movie it does come down to the fact that Venom and Eddie have a mental bond, meanwhile Carnage and Cletus were constantly fighting with each other in that final battle
About how venom eats, I am guessing he actually breaks down everything to the molecular level in a few seconds and then absorbs it.
That and Venom’s saliva is his feces
@@DubShadow please do not elaborate, I don’t want to imagine what Eddie Brock poops out daily
@@soap1178 venom's saliva is the equivalent of feces for humans. He breaks down people's bodies and he gets rid of what he doesn't need by salivating.... So when he licks you... that saliva is made out of people....
@@azulesmalls5514 didn't need to know that
@@MrThunk I did
So afaik, the symbiotes can blend with their host more than the movie lets on. Carnage-type symbiotes are basically indistinguishable from their hosts, which is why Carnage can form holes in Cassidy's torso without killing him or paralyzing him.
So that's why he can do that? I always thought it was because he was effected by cassidy
@@andromedadreams if you look closely, carnage is joined with Cassidy’s body when venom absorbs eddie’s body leaving Eddie Brock still inside, that’s why riot was able to see Eddie when he ripped venom’s face.
@@gambanoid well the movie didn’t do that for some reason
No, Venom uses the plot force to win.
Basically, carnage type symbiotic relationships fuse body, not mind. Venom type relationships don’t usually fully fuse body but allows for connection of the mind
I guess we can call this a correct prediction. In the movie, Eddie and Venom won because they worked together while Cletus and Carnage didn't. Good job Mat 👍
In the comics, they covered what a symbiote/klyntar is as far as the ability to eat nearly anything instantly. They are connected to the physical realm via a skin, that you see, but their mass is in the 4th dimension. He doesn't actually exist inside Eddie unless he needs to heal Eddie.
That's the one critical flaw made in Venom 2: Carnage is separate from Cassidy. Throughout his entire history, Cassidy and the Carnage symbiote bonded deeper than any other and it was shown by him referring to himself as "I" as opposed to "we." But in the movie, Cassidy and the symbiote are still separate the entire time and it becomes a plot point so Venom can win.
Frl i noticed that too 😹
Yeah, honestly I didn’t like what they did with Cassidy and Carnage. But the movie was funny af
Carnage can actually be separated from Cassidy. Norman Osborn did it to become Red Goblin. Its just much more difficult to do than a regular symbiote
But the thing is that Cassidy and Carnage is the same being. They just don’t work as a team as Eddie and Venom do.
Yup, I feel like it’s at fault for being just “one movie”, which is short consider how much comics there are, if we take away the marriage problems of Cassidy in Venom 2 there probably wouldn’t be a easy ending at the final showdown.
What's mind blowing is the fact that real world science actually applies to comic book characters like them.
Agreed, Venom is quite an interesting creature if you ask me.

Pretty much. Carnage was just a reflection of Cassidy making him tactically no better or worse. It's ultimately 1 individual always working rather than 2 like venom.
I really enjoy watching your videos. The animation that you have really adds “spice” to your content and that’s what makes your channel unique. Keep up the amazing work!
When Venom takes on another host it also takes on a different kind of personality depending on the host. When Carnage takes on another host he pretty much changes them into Cletus.
Yeah carnage and Cletus are two different people, but some how act exactly the same.
@@atomicash2475 cletus and carnage are the same person technically( with cletus being carnages perfect host they are the same person with different names.
@@atomicash2475 that's why when merged they say I - because it's the perfect psychotic symbiosis
I think i heard somewhere that Cletus corrupted Carnage, as if Carnage acted similar to Venom at the start but Cletus' insanity drove him mad
@@ilvanasgobero8096 nah the carnage symbiote was always insane. Symbiotes resonate with their hosts emotions (why the venom symbiote chose Brock right after Peter,both of them hated him on a personal level and why it's perfect host was Flash, both of them wanted to be a hero)

As far as the "skull digestion" goes, Eddie most likely has developed a Mutate-style change to his metabolism since/while bonded to the Symbiote, allowing him to digest and process what Venom needs to stay sane.
I love how this movie is essentially about the power of friendship
Friendship…right….
It's actually the power of love. In the comics, Eddie and Venom are canonically in a relationship. They're married and they have a kid together (Eddie carried the pregnancy). Their relationship is actually quite beautiful. They call one another "my love" all the time and in one comic, Venom leaves Eddie and Eddie stops at nothing to get him back.

@@scuproductions he deserved to win
Is it just me or has mattpat become extremely comfortable talking to his audience? Ive been watching for a very long time now on all 3 channels and his old video game theory voice is like flipping a coin different. Well done mattpat
it all boils down to time and experience.
I mean, hes been doing this for years.
I feel like ever since he got a kid, he's come across as more confident and comfortable.
He can afford a voice actor to impersonate him.
For those who wanted to believe: kzhead.info/sun/p6aRaKajjJp5aoE/bejne.html
My theory is that Venom has a special ability that he gained through his symbiotic relationship with Eddie. They have a sort of protection from anything and everything that tries to attack them, especially when together. Something called "plot armor"
That is so smart! I can't believe anyone came up with that! (For anyone who will take me serious and think I am dumb, I am being sarcastic)
Neural connection: "Eddie! We are DRUNK!"
An interesting aspect of the symbiote is that each time it spawns offspring, it's designed to create a stronger symbiote than the previous. So each new offspring SHOULD in theory be stronger than the "parent" symbiote.
True, I mean look at freaking Toxin and Sleeper. Those two are are OP. But a big flaw that came with both of them was either that they were inexperienced and not as capable of strategy as there parents. I mean, toxin beat the crap out of Carnage but almost died to him later cause he didn't think his dad would team up with venom. Sleeper was probably one of the most evolved symbiotes we've seen but he almost died to Tel-Kar wearing Venom cause he outsmarted him. Strength doesn't always factor in when its a fight between strategy.
Don't forget though that cassidy hasn't had as much time to become symbiotic with carnage unlike Eddie who has had a long time to combine well enough with venom, but it depends on how the movie uses this
@@darkspider4435 and even after that team up from carnage and venom, once Spider-Man distracted them for a bit, toxin bulked up and beat the crap out of both of them
Venom suffers because he's had multiple hosts as well. He's still attached to Peter Parker even if Eddie is a more compatible host. Carnage was born and corrupted by the psychotic mind and has never had a connection outside of that and if Venom passes down all his skills to his offspring then Carnage has all the flexibility and increased strength/awareness Spiderman has just like Venom has. Carnage is better in every way except he's basically a baby that knew nothing and then got forced into one of the worst possible humans. It's not even the Symbiotes fault. Venom using "We are Venom" is actually worse because it shows that they are still considering themselves 2 separate entities "sharing" with each other. Carnage is 100% in sync with the human, They both want absolute carnage and they are 1 entity together which is something Venom would fail to do because he will always be Peter Parkers Symbiote. There are 3 stages "I am Venom" refusing to acknowledge the host "We are Venom" Acknowledging the host but refusing to be one with them but still being friendly "I am Venom" fully acknowledged the host and merged with them to the point that you are no longer 2 separate entities sharing a body instead you are a single mind that no longer needs to ask the other permission to do something. Carnage is 1 mind and body.
@@OtakuWrath thats acually really sad
I think that Venom has a better understanding of their limitations, and seeks to overcome them in various ways. Having more powers or less weaknesses doesn't matter as much against someone who is more experienced and competent.
Meanwhile Carnage is the lucky murderhobo in the campaign that can't stop hitting Nat 20s.
Ehh, gonna disagree. Assume on onr side you have a medieval infantryman thats been in 20000 battles and killed many many many men. Hes very competent and experienced. On the other side you have a civilian with a modern gun and very little experience. I think the guy with the modern gun (more powers less weaknesses) would win against the veteran. Yes I know thats comparing technology but that doesnt change that modern guns are more powerful than medieval swords
This statment reminds me of logan paul vs floyd mayweather 🤣. But ngl I agree with you
Not necessarily. Deontay Wilder KOs alot of experienced competent boxers.
Это точно.
Full respect to your team. Best I can do to support you sadly is rewatching these videos every month or so.
Simplier reason to why he and eddie wins, they are the main characters
**gets excited over the scientific theories on venom vs carnage ** matpat: "teamwork!, it's teamwork venom wins."
The real carnage is the friendships we made along the way
hes not saying venom wins hes saying what is venoms advantage
You spelled plot armor wrong.
Also, I just realized this, but like seriously, venom is a really interesting allegory for how irl actual relationships work. There’s a reason why Eddy and venom work as a relationship (not necessarily romantic, just a relationship, period, which benefits them both) while Eddy and Annie don’t. They don’t quite benefit from each other, and it always seems like Eddy’s the one dragging Annie into his problems. Meanwhile, Eddy and Venom eventually enter a state of relative equilibrium, where they both get what they need out of the relationship, but also can find enjoyment living in each others’ company. Whether you see their relationship as an allegory for romance, friends, or just roommates, the lessons they learn can apply to basically anyone who has to interact with another human being (or alien goo) for extended periods of time. This extends to Carnage too. Carnage is a classic example of a highly codependent, highly enabling relationship whether both parties enable each others’ destructive behaviors. They are both “happy”, but their happiness comes at such an extreme cost to both themselves and those around them that the relationship becomes very toxic. Eddy and Venom aren’t necessarily always happy together, but that’s just how relationships work. You can’t always be happy. There has to be some ups and downs. I don’t encourage assaulting your partner to solve your problems though. Talking is better. Or taking a short break now and then to come back with a clearer head is good. Also consulting friends and seeking the support of others. That’s good too. Anyways what I’m saying is that violence aside, their story is ultimately one of building a stronger, more positive relationship.
This makes so much sense. Oh my gosh.
It may not necessarily be romantic, but that is the correct interpretation.
this is literally the definition of a "symbiotic relationship", hence the name "symbiote" for venom and carnage
I actually had several failed relationships (both romantic and friendship) because neither party benefitted from the other, or because only one party benefitted from the other. But I can personally vouch for the mutualism you’re talking about because my fiancé and I are like two halves of the same whole-I benefit from the support he gives me and he benefits from the care I give him. There truly is the “other half” in ALL relationships of ALL kinds that we need to look out for when deciding whether to commit to someone or not. Are they worth investing the time and energy in? Brock’s and Venom’s relationship is exactly this, they benefit from their seemingly opposing natures.
1. How long did it take you to type that 2. I m not reading that it is way to long
I feel like with the relationship between the two pairs that venom and Eddie make each other stronger while carnage and cletus in the end want different things. Carnage I'm assuming he couldn't really function to his best abilities.
It's interesting to note that Carnage when he bonds with Cletus is basically just a baby. So everytime he rebels against Cletus, it can be described as an immature tantrum
Tldr: Murderous strong toddler gets eaten alive by his dad and the *Power of Friendship!*
Matpat: where do the heads go? Me: possibly the pocket dimension. Fun fact, venom actually has his own pocket dimension in the comics. Most people have forgotten about it and it’s pretty much never used but it exists.
He just uses that for human heads?
No. Peter used it as a pocket back when he had venom. It is a pocket dimension after all. I think he put his camera in it and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen him put film in there. But it’s pretty much never talked about these days.
Sweet jesus
Also carnage is eddies and venoms son Venom fucks Eddie and gets him pregnant
@@axolrowe7512 To Carnage later does the same and bonds with a police officer, only for the offspring to later bond with Brock as well. _So I guess by that logic-_
I love that audiences love these movies, and critics don’t. It’s nice to just have a fun movie that you don’t have to think about to enjoy
Anything is good enough for me if it isnt the 1 millionth mcu movie.
@@CHRONE_GRIPS guess what venoms coming to the mcu lmao
Truth be told the audience didn’t really like these either buts it’s still cool
@@uraverageskeleton6480 i didnt watch the movie yet lol
this movie felt so forced and rushed. I’m excited to see Venom come into the MCU though, I think a dynamic between him and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man great would be awesome.
Visual editing on this one goes hard. The ripple effect is so good!
It's interesting that this is exactly how it ended. Eddie literally points out that Carnage and Cletus aren't symbiotic and that allows them to get the edge they need after being beaten going with the more direct route
Translation: "it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle."
Matpat is more interesting, as much as I like death battle, all they do is try to tie abilities into one wobbly spectrum, it makes it a bit less concrete and the only way a character won is by doing something way op in a one off episode and it being canon enough for it to be included.
A man of culture🪑
Matpat doesn't go into a theory with the end results in mind and force the narrative to show what he wants to be the outcome, leaving out details that would ruin his narative. Deathbattle definitely does.
@Yukie Nakama no, shut

That's actually really genius. The "Two heads are better than one" thing. It makes sense. I work with you, you work with me. That's the more powerful factor than simply being insane.

Venom has the best commentary, a skill that no other symbio has.
One of venom's abilities is copying the abilities and powers of whoever his host is, quite literally, anyone he has bonded with he has gained their powers (given he bonded with spiderman he has increased super strength and can produce webs and, well, do anything a spider can do, including the spider sense) while venom wont willingly separate from eddie if separated from him, he'll manually fuse with someone to get back to eddie, thus gaining their powers or abilities among other things
Yea
I see that you are a huge Venom fan
Im not a venom fan, i just naturally know that, technically venom could get rid of some weaknesses by getting specific hosts, but thats besides the point, in a certain comic where that ability is shown to a major extent, it is also shown he can replace host body parts and neurons with himself to extend their lifespan, sadly he eventually loses eddie in that comic and literally uses time travel along with other powers to remake the universe which had been technically lost at that point, that iteration of venom is known as meat garden venom, omega threat level, hard to ignore, hes just what venom would have became had he had a few more hosts and eventually merged with everything only to sacrifice himself in he recreated what had become his home
but the movie venom doesn't have Spidey powers because Eddie is its first host
@@paracame8162 didn't realize that when i watched it, well, i guess right now venom's abilities would be extreme gymnastics and the senses of a dog, which would be, great hearing, sense of smell stupidly high (as if sound wasn't harmful enough already), and the 6th sense to predict disease in others by smell along with predicting bad weather, specially storms
it’s ironic at 13:21 mat used a microphone for venom even though sounds his weakness it’s not important i just found it kinda funny

In an arc called “minimum carnage”, Carnage is literally decapitated and just reattaches his head a minute later. Cool how this video now somehow explains that lil
A comic-book science explanation for the mini-theory at the beginning about eating heads. I believe (I could be wrong) that certain klyntarian symbiotes are capable of producing strong corrosive acids and spraying them at opponents kind of like some real insects. Venom does not explicitly have this power, but it is feesable that some symbiotes have evolved or adapted to use their digestive system and chemicals as a defense mechanism
I definitely agree with the way that the two are it's mostly venom and Eddie's cooperation with each other as well as venoms experience intelligence and capability to function a higher speeds that gives him an advantage I still think that carnages advantages lead him to a higher success rate in this fight but with a bit of forwards thinking or alternatively if he had access to some of the same Powers as Carnage then I'm very much is a more threatening Force than Carnage. (Keep in mind I'm specifically talking about the movie variations I've not read enough of the comics to be able to say anything about them)
So, in a straight fight, Carnage wins. But with prep time, Venom wins. Sounds like Batman to me.
Batman is always preaped
but thats just a theory, a film, theory
@@ze3us577 "Thats my secret, Superman. I am always prepared"
I mean venom did explain he was known as “a bit of a loser” on his planet to Eddie so in turn it probably means he a much weaker symbiote (hope I spelled it right) than all the other variants possibly.
in comics the offspring are also stronger than the original
So him riot and the others from the first movie are indeed strong, but the offspring of one of these would be stronger than the main one
Well I mean just look at the battles he's had, spoiler alert btw . . . . . In his battle with Riot, Riot pulls out all sorts of weird weapons and such and overall he just performs way better physically, and in his battle with Carnage, Carnage has similar abilities to Riot, making weapons and such, but of course more powerful, like ftw said down here, while venom is just like a really musculur man with superhealing, and he doesn't have any weapons that he can make out of himself and such..
it's likely all lot of symbiotes have some sort of power, while venom is just... venom
It's not due to him being weaker, in original lore, it's cause he refuses to worship Knull, the Symbiote God basically. So if anything he was an outcast, they just had him say loser to be funny and be relatable to Eddie I bet.
Symbiotes weakness predates hosts. You could probably argue that Carnage is better protected as he literaly lives inside host, but Venoms weakness wuold not be amplified by bonding with nervous system. There is difference between actual sounds that disrupt cells and electric signals in nerves that carry information of sound.
Venom saying we are venom is pretty much showing that Eddie and venom are linked and act as one. Where as carnage saying I am carnage shows that they don't work together but rather against eachother. Which I'd shown in the movie.
The reason the klyntar race/symbiotes are so affected by fire and sound has to do with their cellular and protein/DNA structure. Part of the reason they can bond to hosts so well is that they're more of a giant soupy cytoplasm rather than a than group of cells, and what's keeping their gooiness all together is a group of proteins, and not cell walls. With their dna swimming about, copying the best bits from the hosts they find, because when they bond, their cytoplasm permeates the host and their dna and cells and cells walls. But this versatility in their ability to bond comes at a cost, their protein and dna/body structure(I guess you could say) is weaker than if it was bound up in structures or cell walls like we have. That's why it's so much easier for them to die to fire and sound, their dna and proteins denature that much easier in the presence of heat, and break apart/denature(also?) due to frequencies that don't normally hurt other beings. Humans can die from the right vibration as well, if you stand in front of a speaker blasting the right sound, your cells will start to burst apart, but due to our DNA/proteins and cell walls being structured as they are, we can stand way more frequencies up till that one sound
yeah... or that an ancient lord of darkness forged them with fire and noisy hammers so they're weak to the things that created them, lol

Yup. There have been multiple times when Carnage was literally _blown to bloody puddles..._ and then he shows up perfectly fine about an issue or two later. In fact, the fastest time _Deadpool_ regenerated his entire head from a blown-up stump was about 13 minutes - however, Carnage repeatedly regenerates a blown-up/decapitated head *_in SECONDS,_* meaning that his healing factor is actually canonically superior even to Deadpool, let alone Venom.

I like how the anime trope of "friendship always wins" is the reason Venom beats carnage lol
Carnage is actually Venom's child, and is actually stronger than Venom. Meaning that Carnage is stronger against sound or flame. Same goes for Carnage's child, Toxin.
On the flame and sound part, there was also a point in the comics where Carnage got some spell cast on him so he was actually made immune to sonic and fire attacks. At that point, he could only really be hurt by electricity. But of course, they probably don't have that happen in the movie, seeing as Carnage hadn't been around long enough...

*What Venom lacks in strength, he makes up for it with agility and intelligence.*
Putting it that way just makes it sound like Venom and Carnage are D&D characters.
That's quite ironic looking at their build, Venom is big and Brawny while carnage is slim.
"Intelligence" Say "I" once. Venom: "imma head out"
@Shin Shaman shut up
"We need sound!" >Smacks Frances into the church bell. Best fakeout ever in a modern movie. 😂😂😂
I've been watching your videos for awhile There still amazing
The fact of how right this was is surprising carnage lost because of the host carnage and cleetus weren’t with each other but venom and Eddie (for the most part) were working with each other
"A CGI slugfest with some kind of skybeam in the background" Literally every superhero movie ending ever 😂
Except for every single Batman movie and every single Spider-Man movie
Also accurate for the movie, but surprisingly, no skybeam! Unless a light from a helicopter counts
Sooooo.... anyone gonna point out that Mat brought up the whole regeneration powers and venom not being able to, while in the first movie he was able to completely repair Eddie's body AND come back to full power after sacrificing/burning himself, both in the first movie? Other than that little tidbit, love this video! 😛
I thought of that. But there was also a part in the movie where venom seemed frustrated that he couldn't fix Eddie's cancer. But he was completely aware it existed. He can probably help certain functions of Eddie's body fight against viruses and cancers more effectively.
Or how about there's a very prominent line in the trailers for "Venom 2" where Venom breaks Eddie's nose? "Here, let me heal that for you -- so I can break it again!"
He said unlike Venom, Carnage irl should have regeneration. He is talking about in real life, if the symbiotes were actually real and bonded in their ways, why Carnage would have better regen than venom, at least that is how I took it

The movie is actually using this. The reason Venom won was because Cletus and Carnage were arguing, and Venom and Eddie (hey he has my name) worked together
Exactly. They weren’t Symbiotic as they say.
10$ says if they were carnage would rip and tear like there’s no tomorrow
Love to see that the movie completely disregarded Carnage's lore to give people generic ending.
@Christian Haynes the movie sucked anyways
Ok now I know the movie carnage is weak af
1. The thing with the accelerated senses with Venom wouldn’t technically work against them because symbiotes can adapt to their environment is seconds. If it is too loud, they cause the brain to be less connected to the ears so that the noise wouldn’t destroy them. 2. There is actually a much easier way to have done this. There is a literal video game where you take super heroes and villains and fight them. I feel like that would’ve been easier to do
I'd love to see a theory/ just your thoughts on that after credit scene. Spoilers Ya know with the "that guy comment" venom mentioned a connection to other symbiotes before being thrust into the MCU (most likely). So was there a symbiote in the MCU that tom Holland Spider-Man was connected to but ended up destroying or containing. Is that one of the things the MCU skipped over like Uncle Ben dying. Was there a Venom in the MCU that this Venom may end up merging with?
Matpat: "It's not in the MCU....yet" If you know, you know
Shhh no spoilers
I know what you are talking about tho
😎
i dont get it
@@chesp1n it's a spoiler man, so can't tell you what you don't get or it would ruin it for you.
I think you underestimated venom since his connection is neurological he acts like a third brain (our left and right brains are actually separate entities) so while carnage will have to actively speak to communicate with his host venom can basically trade information at the rate your brains are doing it right now which is so fast you never noticed "you" is actually 2 your whole life.
This is really interesting, Thank you I didn’t know this and it definitely adds points to there strategy bracet in between venom and carnage
Duel brain is a myth from the old timey era
@@AntagonistVR You should watch the CGP gray video on that, really interesting
@@mattstyles2498 I'm pretty sure multiple tests were conducted when patients were prescribed seperation surgeory
@@pythro_ sounds good, I’ll do that now
Actually I've seen an biologist talk about Venom and Carnage would STILL be weak to sound. The sound waves aren't dangerous to symbiotes because of sensory overload, they would cause the symbiote cells to lose cohesion and so it weakens them. It's like sound melts them So venom loses his weakness to sensory overload for it isn't affected by other things other than sound that much. Also Carnage tentacles could prove to be a weakness as: -they require more brain power to move as they are individual limbs -Carnage doesn't have a connection to the brain so it's reaction time suffer a little if it uses the tentacles So Venom has a little disadvantage physically against Carnage but it's not completely overwhelming.
at 2:43 ok im hearing the background music and im like WHAT SONG IS THIS??? i heard it on another youtuber and still don tknow what it is
“Club of horrifying villains that have mundane weaknesses” Michael Myers: Radiation Carnage: Radiation
I noticed that Cassidy and Michael are names in FNAF.
Honestly, I like the way that Venom won in the movie, they made it feel like it wasn’t just because of his plot armor, but rather because Venom and Eddie were bonded and working together while Carnage and Cletus were fighting with each other

I alright saw the movie, but spoiler much? I mean lets face it, venom and brock would probably win anyway. But someone who doesn't keep up with the movies might think otherwise.
@@unknownlight390 lol anyone watching venom theory videos has seen the movie or probably aren’t going to see it, it’s a given there’s gonna be spoilers
@@unknownlight390 venom can't and did not win the fight he win the plot its like batman cant win against superman but batman wins the plot
Definitely didn't like carnage in the movie, since he's supposed to be much more bonded than venom, but I understand why they changed it
bro really said "sure carnange is stronger, has more stamina and less weaknesses but venom has the power of teamwork , friendship and determination".
True. Carnage can make blades and axes and yeet them. But venom can extend his arm and make them into a shield. But he can also make his arms blades,too. But he can't yeet them
"Carnage uses screech, it is super effective!" Nice to see a Pokémon reference in a theory not based on Pokémon.
Screech is a defense lowering move, it doesn’t do dmg
(Spoiler) First, I know he made a joke about this not being a prediction theory, but matpat really hit it home on this one. The final battle came down too, in part, Carnage's inability to work with his human. While Venom and Eddie put aside their differences to beat Carnage. Second, I just had a weird idea. If venom is vulnerable to sound, why doesn't Eddie just get a dog whistle? Would work wonders for when he is out of control.
I guess it only works with frequencies that the host can hear
That and since you've seen the movie you'll know that won't work, venom would take control of his hand and get rid of it if it was used like that
@@vbgaming6203 Yeah I know, I just think that would be a funny scene.
@@logic9680 that might actually be good
Because venom would then not want to be with a host that is trying to control him that way.
Can we just address the funniest miss moment of the movie? There was this one Moment where Carnage points at Venom and says " Father !" And Venom goes " Oh Sh!t! " like in my mind the scene was Venom rejecting responsibility for Carnage like he is not gonna pay child support for that Symbiote 🤣 I laughed so hard when he hide from his own son 🤣
that was actually true. i saw the movie, and carnage did not focus on his battle, choosing instead to shut up his host's love interest, which made the two fight (C & K).
Lol I’ve seen the movie, and while I’d say venom ends up being the more goal oriented one, the rest of this theory is spot on, from the regeneration, to carnage’s ultimate downfall being him and cleetus not being on the same page. Good job matpat
Carnage is still weak to sound in the movie
@@dougjudy5817 he's more endurance than at least some symbiote
It's actually in a sense more that carnage and cletus are on the same page... That page just happens to be the wrong page. They're both so far off the deep end, so utterly insane and chaotic, than any sense of reason that could be useful in a fight against an opponent anywhere near their power goes out the window.
@AmongFootball noob late
@@dougjudy5817 and fire aswell
Brock actually trained himself to peak human physical condition prior to the symbiot joining him in the comics originally. He was that big without Venom (maybe a misnomer with retcons but venom was the merger of Eddie and the symbiot.. like Spidey had it and wasn’t venom) in the beginning at least. Just thought it was worth noting. Great video thanks!
If I am correct this was so Eddie Brock could fight his own Cancer. Which I find odd that Mat Pat mentions cancer being a potential weakness in this video, yet didn't bring up the fact Eddie Brock had cancer.
Something of a related note: Are you also annoyed that Sony and producers deployed the misconception that the Symbiote itself is Venom? Not only is that inaccurate, but it completely diminishes the whole "We are Venom" aspect and makes it seem like the Symbiote is doing all the work.
@@100percentNotaBot No, it's not. Spider-Man was never Venom and all those other guys only called themselves Venom because they looked like the original and were wearing the Venom Symbiote. When Venom was 1st introduced as a character, at no point was the symbiote itself referred to as Venom--Brock even made it clear that THEY are Spider-Man's "venom" come back to bite him. On top of that, the symbiote itself even stated it doesn't have a name--not a vocal one by human standards, but instead a unique pulse of emotions, as each symbiote has one to recognize each other across the hive.
When he's talking about how it tastes like a village of people to make it the quality content the last person going by was Matt holding a camera and when I pause the video so I can see the picture clearly I was just laughing hysterically
The trailer shows Venom headbutt Eddie, heal his broken nose just so it can be broken again...let's not forget the broken legs thing in the first film. Regeneration. Venom does it too.

The symbiote is the one "eating" anything they consume in their amalgamated form by literally dissolving it and consuming it that way. In much the same way he could, if he chose, consume one or even all of a component of Eddie, but since he is The Host that would be problematic.
exactly, eddie isn't a cannibal, venom is the one eating the brains. kasady is a cannibal in the comics and let there be carnage, and when carnage eats humans, kasady consumes it too, hence the song that cletus sang when he escaped prison, "warden, you tasted just like ham", meaning that kasady ate the warden's brain
As someone one said. "you can't brute force your way to victory, it isn't that simple"
this is a prediction theory venom and eddie actually beat carnage through psycology
The idea that Venom could beat his stronger, faster and more durable counterpart using AIDS is just hilarious
Ohhhh my god your giving the rule34 artists ideas
He said Venoms faster
The fact that the last quarter of venom and carnages fight was Mano e Mano with no symbiote just makes this even better.

@@discolullaby5777 did u see the movie?
@@discolullaby5777 carnage didnt love her cletus did like how carnage knocked her out him. Carnage not caring about cletus was his down fall
My theory as to how the heads are devoured is that Venom isn't a solid organism meaning it could be possible for it to rip apart/turn the human heads into a slurry which is then quickly absorbed by Venom and before anyone asks "then why does he bite people's heads off cant he just make the heads into a slurry by touching them" because I believe it's in the saliva that Venom secretes sorta like how spiders inject their fluid to liquify THEIR food venom does it but on a much larger scale but the saliva only is able to liquify organic substances in a closed environment. I mean I know it's not a solid theory but it does have a good basis
Thumbnail: “Why Venom wins.” Me: He has the power of being the protagonist
Since venom controls the nerves, couldn't he just turn off some nerves or something to push through a weakness? That'd be neat
He can do that in the comics lol
