Do you consider No Way Home’s end credit scene retconned due to the events of Venom 3?
This has always bugged me since The Last Dance came out, and on a rewatch of that movie tonight, I wanted to pose the question. Is there two symbiotes across two different universes now being left in a bar? Or did Venom 3 retcon it, so that the symbiote left in the bar, is only in Sony’s universe now?

If anything i would say the bigger issue is the fact they retconned how Venom got the boot from the MCU (Doesn't help that Morbius stayed consistent with the way the characters did multiversal travel via Strange's spell), than the idea that he left bits of himself in both worlds
he just does that when he's at a bar
gross

i understand the intention of the teaser but the spell sent back all sentient beings and all parts of the symbiote are sentient. why venom even cared about spiderman is just a random nod to the audience already knowing their relationship
But then they did what they did in Venom 3 and there is no salvaging it. It just makes no sense at all. Same as the Morbius post credit with Vulture.
I've read before that it's like this in comics as well, isn't it?
With the cliffhanger/drop of symbiote, it could’ve been laying foundations for a *possible* introduction of Venom into the MCU later on. Basically that Strange’s spell didn’t work on completely on Venom because the symbiote can’t fully “forget” Peter (thanks to the hive mind). So a little bit was left behind. Or, the symbiote did that on purpose because they were interested in 616 Peter. Not saying it was set in stone, but they at least left the option open just in case.
Venom knew who Peter was because the Hivemind shares a collective consciousness across the multiverse.
"His biology is different and his memory is not affected by magic the same way".
Let's think about it for a moment. The scene already retcons 99% of the No Way Home post-credits scene. Eddie no longer mentions Iron Man, Hulk, or Thanos. He no longer mentions Spider-Man or shows any interest in him. He's taken to the SSU in a different way, and he's given a different motivation for going to New York.
Is it really impossible that the symbiote bit hasn't also been retconned? Even more so when Sony made so much of it, even adding a penny to it.
Besides, I don't see how it would benefit Marvel to continue keeping the post-credits scene. It's obvious that the original idea, at least for Sony, was for this creature to be the link between the SSU and the MCU, thus justifying a crossover that Marvel prevented, and the SSU no longer exists.
What good does it do for Marvel Studios to maintain a connection with a canceled universe? When they can easily say in the future that the symbiote came from space.
I've seen some say, "No, keep its multiversal origin but simply ignore it. No one would mention that it's a product of the multiverse." If that's the case, then what difference does it make to give it a new origin if we're already ignoring the past?
2. One way or another, its origin must be told, since it's a vital part of the symbiote's character.
So, yes, it seems to me that that scene was completely retconned, and I don't mind, to be honest.
I would say technically do note that Marvel and Sony are sharing Spidermans live action movie rights now, .so it gets messy.
While I have seen a vast number of the mcu films, I have stopped venom after his first movie, but I'm aware of the plot oint in the 2nd and 3rd.
So, hopefully, I can get this right and not mess it up.
Buti interpreted. It is that NWH takes place after V2 or before V3 venom dies in V3 as far as we know.
But he did leave a little piece at the end of no way home, which I might consider it to be an offspring, so it might be able to on a technicality, not get sent back to the original universe of where its parents came from, given that Symbiotes. in the comics can only give birth to one offspring, but As we can see that they have given birth to multiple due to different genetic situations Or experimentation.
So, while its mind could be wiped, it might gain memories. From different time lines because I think it was mentioned in one of the venom films that they are connected across the multiverse, meaning that it could have amnesia, but get memories of other symbiotes.
Causing a problem with the host, it bonds to I can only imagine the problems. Having like an amount of time just taken/ Erased. from you and having to know what happened from different places.
But I again I wouldn't be surprised if goes nowhere
I say it not cannon unless it gets brought up again or goes somewhere.
Sonyverse Venom never crossed over with the MCU
The events of the venom movies dont match up with the events of the Spiderman movies. Venom sees an image of Peter Parker on TV that was never actually taken, meanwhile how Venom returns home in No way home doesnt match up with how Venom returns home in Venom 3
therefore, my heretical viewpoint is that Venom went to a spinter timeline version of the MCU, and the Venom who turned up in No Way Home was a different variant
Im talking about from an in-universe viewpoint, as if these were actual events and not just a series of movies about profitable IPs
The thing is that it is in Venom's universe and doesn't actually work as a retcon since the original post-credit scene has the symbiote left in the MCU.
Stop asking - we are ready to move on to better stuff.
The Sony spider verse movies are NOT actually connected to the MCU.
Sony absolutely wants you to believe they are and has gone to great lengths to make them seem as connected as they can. But they aren’t.
Marvel is in no way beholden to anything that happens in any of the Sony movies, aside from the specifically Tom Holland Spider-Man movies.
The venom symbiote being left behind in the Sony verse was just Sony baiting audiences to try and further connect their universe to the MCU and make their movies appear as mandatory viewing.
Did everyone forget how Feige had to step up and clarify that Venom 1 wouldn't be within the MCU, because SONY refused to give a clear answer?
If I were those actors with money to burn, I would totally try and see if I could sue Sony for fraud or something like that.
It's the only Marvel movie that is guaranteed to make $1 billion, outside of Avengers, post-Endgame. Sony will never let that go. The only reason Sony even stopped making Sony-verse is because it kept losing money outside of Venom, so they just stopped.
If anything i would be looking more at the fact they changed the way Strange kicked Brock out of the MCU, in the MCU he vanished via light, while in Venom he got absorbed by a portal, since i have no issues with the idea that Venom left pieces of himself on both versions of the bar.
Considering they have Secret Wars coming up though I feel they'll probably use that for free "comic accuracy" points.
Same goes for Morbius. As far as I'm aware, Toomes is still in his universe.
Sony obviously didn't care about the mechanics of how the multiverse or the spell in NWH works. They just wanted to hand wave the logic and stitch together their own Sinister Six which they've been trying to develop since Amazing Spiderman.
But then Sony made the worst movies and that door for a crossover was likely closed. We don't know all the backdoor discussions and meetings surrounding the SSU. The end credits scene for Morbius was changed possibly after some discussion between the studios. Venom 3 probably has similar discussions leading to the retcon.
2. Eddie talks to short haired Dani Rojas while venom sheds goo.
3. They transport back to their dimension’s own Mexico bar (where Dani Rojas has long hair) and venom sheds more goo.
4. The goo in Eddie’s dimension gets grabbed.
They reshot the Symbiote scene for let there be carnage where the Symbiote is left on Eddies world and not the main MCU. In that sense I think it’s been retconned.
On the other hand, it’s entirely possible that Venom splitting off a piece of himself happened in both universes. We just saw the aftermath in eddies universe because he’d already been sent back.
