Morbius (2022)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Morbius (2022)

Updated the release year...this was delayed by the Pandemic.

Stick around for the end of the trailer, which hints at another movie. Yep, we've reached a point where trailers for movies are now teases for other movies.

Early word is coming out, not reviews as they are still legally blocked until the release, but they are not very positive. I've seen one anonymous person say the movie is a complete mess.

I went in expecting it to suck. It wasn't great, possibly not even good, but it was more enjoyable than I expected.

I don't consider this a Marvel movie because Marvel had nothing to do with it. This was all Sony.

Jared Leto is excellent. The special effects are cool. They really nail what Morbius looks like despite getting some of his powers wrong.

However, the story is a mess. It's predictable, stuff goes nowhere, two dimensional characters, and so on. It will be interesting to watch them nerf Morbius if they have him appear in another film. He was simply way too powerful here.

This might be the most accurate one ever. Not just the criticism of the movie, but how the studio executive and writer act.

The part around 5:13 was brilliant. I'm not going to see this movie, that youtube clip was better than it'd ever be.
It's not me, it's someone else.
