Yeah, Rami never liked Venom at all. He had a vision of about 6 Spider-man movies each bringing in one or two characters from the silver age (when he first started reading) and then the sixth movie was going to be spider-man vs The Sinister Six.
You had Goblin in the first one, Doc Ock in the second, Sandman in #3. The rumor was that before Venom was added, he had wanted a cameo by The Vulture to parlay into Spider-man 4. And from Spider-man 1 he had been putting in Doctor Curt Connors to use the Lizard at some point.
But yeah, Blonsky was mad during that line because he was being blamed for Banner's escape. So his job/status was on the line. He was going to be the saccrficial lamb (from what I understood) if he couldn't retrieve banner before another "Hulk incident" occured.
Which is why I think Blonsky eventually uses the Hulk Serum on himself, instead of putting it through the clinical trials because he needed an edge to go against the Hulk.
They are keeping a pretty tight lid on details of the story so I'm looking forward to seeing what direction they go it. It seems like its going to be more around the military industral complex, but unlike the Ang Lee version you get the Hulk in the first 10 minutes and not have to wait like 17 hours of character bits before you see the Hulk.
