Venom co-creator: Critics were "too old" to get the movie
Todd McFarlane thinks critics were too old to get #Venom: “They come in, and they’re 42 years old, and they come in with their attitude and they’re going, ‘Stop it.’ What if you were 16 and you were watching this movie? You would love it.” https://t.co/cxr6A2QkaG pic.twitter.com/t75f3LWTnT

Comic artist and Venom co-creator Todd McFarlane has an idea as to why Venom was so badly received by critics: They were too old.
"I think at times the critics get it wrong in that they forget their age. They come in, and they’re 42 years old, and they come in with their attitude and they’re going, ‘Stop it.’ What if you were 16 and you were watching this movie? You would love it."
He then states he thought the movie was gnarly, nasty and had a "big cool" Venom before calling himself bias.
It should be noted that McFarlane is 57 years old so his age complaint makes little sense.
