Morbius also flops on the 2nd cinema attempt!

Morbius flops again

It's no longer Morbin' time! Morbius, Sony's Spider-Man spin-off, was released in over 1000 cinemas across the United States, yet it failed to create an impact yet again! With a domestic total of $73.6 million, the Jared Leto-led superhero film earned additional $85,000 on Friday. According to Forbes, the $270 per-theater average is the lowest among the top twenty.

Sony attempted to cash in on the online meme frenzy that the film sparked. Leto himself used Twitter to further entice the audience with a meme-inspired video. The Oscar winner reads the script for Morbius' sequel, titled 'It's Morbin' Time,' in this brief video. The cover page, however, reveals the satire since it names scriptwriter 'Bartholomew Cubbins,' who happens to be a fictional page and the hero of two Dr. Seuss children's novels. However, none of the efforts appear to be fruitful, raising worries about the possibility of a sequel.

Both the audience and the critics panned Morbius. It had a Cinemascore of C+ and a Tomatometer score of 17%. Due to the epidemic, the film was delayed more than a half-dozen times. The game-changing effect of Spider-Man: No Way Home also spiralled the film into reshoots and plot gaps. Furthermore, after No Way Home brought three generations of Spider-Man and his villains together, the film fails to establish a specific timeline.

"First and foremost, Morbius: not as horrible as everyone is making it out to be," actor Al Madrigal, who played FBI agent Alberto 'Al' Rodriguez, later told ComicBook about the film. Sure, there were issues, and they diced it up a lot. I had some wonderful lines in that movie that were removed. In that thing, I was butchered. That's what I believe they did. They just had so much time to muck around with it because of COVID. They played with it a lot."

Leto stars alongside Matt Smith as Loxias Crown, Micheal Keaton as Vulture, Adria Arjona as Martine Bancroft, and Tyres Gibson as Simon Stroud in Morbiuscast.


Morbius' summary is as follows:


Oscar winner Jared Leto turns into the enigmatic antihero Michael Morbius, one of the most interesting and conflicted characters in Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters. Dr. Morbius, who is critically ill with a rare blood ailment and is committed to spare others from the same destiny, takes a risky gamble. While it appears to be a huge success at first, a darkness within him emerges. Will good triumph over evil, or will Morbius succumb to his strange new desires?

Jessica Jones Highlights Sexist Treatment Of Female Marvel Heroes

Image
Jessica Jones, one of Marvel's most powerful female characters, considers how poorly female superheroes are treated in the society she inhabits. Jessica Jones is not typically the first female superhero that comes to mind. She isn't as eye-catching as Captain Marvel or She-Hulk. With the exception of her time as Jewel, Jess prefers a leather jacket and a cup of coffee than the conventional cape and tights. Jessica Jones offers a perceptive commentary on the present condition of vigilantism and what it means to be a woman in that milieu in Marvel's The Variants. Ten years have passed since Jones was under Kilgrave's, a.k.a. the Purple Man, control when The Variants takes place. Jessica is prepared to retire from crimefighting now that she is married to Luke Cage and has a daughter. The first victim of Kilgrave, Maria Snyder, who is accused of killing her family, makes an attempt to deny responsibility in court. Unfortunately, Jessica is the only one who has an understand...

Game of Thrones actress Lena Headey is being sued for $1.5 million by her former UK agency, Troika, for a variety of unpaid commission fees. These costs cover Thor: Love and Thunder, a movie in which Headey was cast but whose producers ultimately decided to delete her scenes. According to Troika, now known as YMU, Headey expressly owes them at least $500,000 for the movie Love and Thunder. Variety has revealed that she did indeed play a part in the original script written by director Taika Waititi, despite the fact that her inclusion in the Marvel Studios summer blockbuster was never promoted or formally announced. That position's specifics are still unknown. Numerous A-List actors were eliminated from Thor 4's final edit, including Headey's role. Christian Bale said that Jeff Goldblum from Jurassic World: Dominion and Game of Thrones co-star Peter Dinklage were cut from the fourquel. “I got to work with Peter Dinklage, that’s not in the final film, but I got to work with ...

Marvel Star Will Poulter Says Superhero Body Transformations Are 'Unhealthy' and 'Unrealistic'

Image
Source: Twitter Will Poulter, one of the MCU's newest actors, has stated that getting a superhuman physical change without a studio paying for your meals and training is "unhealthy" and "unrealistic." In a recent interview with The Independent, he said, "It's difficult to talk about it because with Marvel it's all secret squirrel." "However, the most important thing is that your mental and physical wellness come first, with aesthetic aspirations coming second." If you don't have the financial backing of a studio to pay for your meals and training, you'll wind up advocating something unhealthy and unrealistic.In that regard, I'm in a really fortunate position, and I wouldn't advise someone to prepare for that job the way I did." What is this job that Poulter is referring to? His role as Adam Warlock, a genetically engineered superhuman in the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 film, which will be released next year. La...
