This is my mini rant, but I hate Marvel movies because you cannot sit down and just watch one movie. You have to have seen the 37 most recent Marvel movies so you understand all the references that are otherwise never explained. For example, I recently watched Venom with my son. It was actually quite good. He wanted to see the second Venom movie. I looked up the name of the second movie and got it. After 10 minutes or so, I told him I think we must have accidentally gotten movie 3, because so much has obviously happened in the story since the last movie. We looked it up again, and nope, that was the second movie. I just needed to see every damn Marvel movie released between the first and the second. No more Marvel movies for me.
Oddly, Venom isn't a movie made by Marvel, so it doesn't tie into the MCU movies, or at least it didn't until a cameo in the last Spider-Man movie. Not sure what part of Venom 2 you are talking about since I think I only watched that once back when it first released.
