Keep in mind Amazing Spider-Man's going for the Ultimate Marvel approach, so Venom was the result of some freak genetic-engineering, and not some alien goo in a meteorite. Flash Thompson does become Venom, when SHIELD stripped Brock of the symbiote they used it to create a super-agent, and Flash was the chosen host. He's officially known as Agent Venom to differentiate him from Brock, who later becomes Anti-Venom, the result of his immune system rejecting the symbiote when it tries to return to him and creates a white symbiote from his white blood cells.

Shocker would be awesome, he's a fairly underrated Spidey villain. Mygeto, I can tell you've been thinking about this for a long time. While you're idea would be really sick, I doubt they could manage to get that level of complexity, and I doubt McGuire would want to return after everyone thought his portrayal in Spiderman 3 practically killed the franchise. But still it would be sweet if they did it. Though I think it's quite likely that they'll be rolling out the other potential Sinister 6 members though I don't hope they have Kraven as the main villain because I kinda hate him.

They'll quite likely do a Spidey Avengers crossover eventually, as he was a member of the New Avengers, along with Wolverine (and Hugh Jackman has expressed desires to appear alongside Robert Downey). Also another thing that has been noticed is that the Manhattan in Avengers and Amazing Spider-Man were practically the same, in fact they were originally planning on putting in OsCorp Tower into the Avengers film as an easter egg, but due to scheduling conflicts they couldn't.

And I really hope Carnage will appear in the fourth film because he's such an awesome villain, but for him to appear Venom needs to make an appearance first.
