Comment byu/LiteraryBoner from discussion inmovies
"They 100% refilmed it. The delivery was different and Venom gets sucked back to his homeworld through a golden portal instead of vanishing into white light like in No Way Home."
"Insane how they redid the convo with the bartender at the start but removed the line mentioning spiderman. Like come the f**k on lmao, said oanother user.
"So what did they do with the bartender guy? Was he playing an identical variant of the bartender from NWH? ,echoed another user.

The discussions continued to escalate among people with most pointing out the scene involving a conversation between Eddie Brock and a bartender which was present in both the Spider-Man universe and the Venom universe.

"I like how in one of the trailers they made it seem like the General capturing the piece of Venom at the bar in Mexico was in the MCU, but in the movie, they quickly squashed it, same bartender, different universes, "said one user jokingly.
"The mid/post credits scenes were awful and then fine. "Here's Knull's stupid CGI face" and "Oh right the bartender, and maybe a baby Venom Roach"), "said another user.
"That bartender actor must feel lucky getting two roles unexpectedly, said another user.

What was the scene in Venom: The Last Dance that got the audience talking?

A particular scene in Venom: The Last Dance towards the beginning of the film got the audiences worked up when they saw how it played out in front of their eyes.

This particular scene is the one that was also featured in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The moment involved Eddie Brock being transported to the Marvel Cinematic Universe due to a minor glitch in Doctor Strange's powers, which shifted Brock from his own timeline into Spider-Man's.

In the scene, Brock is seen conversing with a bartender enquiring about Spider-Man and Thanos. However, just as he was about to get some answers he was transported back to his own realm by Doctor Strange.

In Venom: The Last Dance, this entire scene was recreated, but certain details were modified, leading to some confusion among viewers. The dialogue with the bartender was maintained in the film, but Brock’s question regarding Spider-Man was omitted. However, his inquiry about Thanos was retained in the scene.

Another major change involved how Brock was returned to his universe. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, he was sent back with Doctor Strange's assistance, whereas in the newly released Venom film, it is revealed that he was pulled back to his universe by Knull.
