The project languished in development hell for years, bouncing between numerous directors and versions of screenplays. Its release was also delayed several times due to the pandemic.

I’ve heard this is super good, so they keep having to push it back because we aren’t able to handle it yet, because it’s that good, that we need more time to evolve as a species to be better prepared to handle a movie this good https://t.co/fYfamkNQrX

Morbius wasn’t even that bad it just needed better acting, casting, plot, directing, characters, effects, lighting, scenes, structure, soundtrack, and editing

Just watched Morbius & gosh the tears in my eyes. The plot, The themes, the characters, the dynamics, the drama, the lore, the emotional moments...everything was garbage from beginning to end. On my way to the hospital, definitely the worst movie I've ever seen

I say without without exaggeration or hyperbole that I don’t think I’ve seen a superhero movie that’s worse than MORBIUS. I genuinely can’t think of anything I liked about it. Matt Smith was awake?

i knew morbius was already destined for disappointment because there's no way it could have topped the intimidation, drama, and sheer wife guy energy of castlevania dracula
