For the love of god, the only thing I want for this new Spider-Man movies is to use Ultimate Venom's origin. It's perfect. No need for space mumbo jumbo. No need to rehash for the umpteenth time its origin that it came from a space shuttle piloted by John Jameson or in a meteorite.

For Marc Webb's movies, it would've added new information on Peter's parents while including this angle into the story, not as a side-plot. Maybe it can be used to explore the history of the MCU like Ant-Man will. It makes the enmity between Peter and Eddie personal: It's not some random reporter Spider-Man (or Peter) screwed over, they were childhood friends; Eddie won't hate Peter just becuse he ruined his career, but because he destroyed the only thing he had left from his father.

It's just right there. Waiting to be used. It needs just a minor tweaks to be adapted. They could even use Shocker as a minor villain the same way he was used in the original story (á la Batroc zee Lepair).
