breaking news! Morbius was not good!
Рет қаралды 187,578
2 жыл бұрынI am breaking my no Marvel movie rule to talk about how not good of a movie Morbius was. They truly don't seem to know what they were going for, an antihero story, a horror movie, a vampire movie? Who knows! What I know is it turned into the chewed-up pile of junk that ended up being Morbius.

@@Otter34 Yeah, I actually thought it might be cool to have a character that believes they are a good person but over the course of the movie slowly realises they are the bad guy. Not ending in redemption or anything, or being aware that they are doing bad things and stopping. It might be interesting to have a villain simply become a villain, and sort of be okay with it. The really evil, yet charming, villains who revel in being bad are usually the best. Probably would need someone other than Leto though.

The main reason morbius is a “living vampire” is the comics code still had a no monsters rule so it was a loophole to say he was just a vampire themed villain. He is a character born of censorship for age ratings and it will forever haunt the character.

@dragonetafireball 2 жыл бұрын
TL;DR they used the excuse that "kids seeing bad things would make them delinquents" to ban anything in media they didn't agree with. There used to be an organisation called The Comics Code Authority that had a seal of approval publishers would need a seal from to be able to get a comic stocked in most establishments. It was born from a bigoted fearmongering report called "Seduction of the Innocent" blaming comics for most of the societies perceived problems* especially child delinqicy, it was partially based off the film equivalent the Hays Code. There was a lot to it but to quote the Wikipedia "Vampires, werewolves, ghouls and zombies (the staple monsters of the horror comics) were banned outright, and, in addition, comics could not use the words horror or terror in their titles." A lot of it was the stuff you now hear about video games that it "encouraged reckless behaviour" or "desensitises youth to violence, making them more likely to turn to delinquency" It was eventually relaxed after Marvel published a comic the authority refused to give a seal because it was important to Harry Osborn's character arc and after that comic sold very well it was relaxed and eventually replaced with the modern age based rating system. *I say perceived problems because both the CCA and Hays codes had very antiquated ideas, and many of the things they were mad about weren't even problems.

Who describes something as a curse in normal conversation? Any sane person who hears this would immediately want an explanation.

Morbius was never Marvel's strongest character, but there was a real opportunity here to play into the horror aspect and go deeper than they did in the comics. Marvel has a lot of characters like this, actually - Ghost Rider, Mephisto, Hellstrom, Typhoid Mary, and Morbius just to hit on a few. The comics occasionally manage to do new and interesting things with them, but so far the movies waste the opening they have to do something original, instead trying to appeal to the general MCU vibe...and they end up failing at both originality and broad appeal. Unfortunate that Morbius falls into this camp.

I think, having not seen the film myself, it sounds like they didn’t even understand the character they were writing. Why would a doctor who has been working for years towards finding a cure to save his own life, then be totally willing to end his life because of one instance where he lost control? I think he either actually needed to hurt more people on more than one occasion, or be more dedicated to the self preservation he felt when he was human. Jared Leto is trash but it also sounded like a case of poor writing as well which means it was always going to be a flop.

Just wondering cause I see a lot of people using it. Why wouldn't you just say fem presenting content creators since it's usually sexist towards fem presenting creaters cause 💫mysogeny 💫? Like I'm assuming trans men get hate as well but then wouldn't trans women as well? So would it just be people who aren't cis men? Im not well versed in like star wars or marvel communities cause like they're so sexist and toxic (even doctor who as well after the last season) and AFAB is a new word thing for me too, all I know it as is assigned female at birth. Just questioning so I can get a better grasp on how it's used cause Google only does so much 😅

@@thejazzy6012 I might be misreading what you're saying, but most trans men are not fem presenting? That's like saying that because of their biology they can never pass/present as masculine. AFAB makes sense in this contex. If you're wanting to include cis women, trans women, and AFAB trans people I would probably just say "AFAB and fem presenting people" because that includes everyone. I say this because as an AFAB nonbinary person, it's really frustrating when people call me fem presenting. I'm not presenting fem, people just perceive me as fem regardless of my presentation because of my body. U feel? Edit- you know, I think I am probably misreading what you're saying haha.

Here's my thoughts on a simple way for Sony to improve on their movies. Make the main character an actual villain instead of anti-heroes. Then let the villain, who we clearly identify as the villain, win in the end. Legitimately set up spidey's rogues gallery in a way that people invested in the mcu can get excited for.

I'm also not a big Jared Leto fan. I've never been able to get into the characters he portrays. Some actors can go the method route well but doesn't work for me with him. The recent story of him plopping his ass down in a wheelchair to be wheeled to the bathroom so he can stay in character was a little much for me. Stories like that make me not want to see the movie. To each their own of course.

My interpretation to why only Möbius could control bats was Morbius spent time exploring his powers and theoretically using the scientific method to understand his powers where Milo has just being attacking people so for the most part Milo is better at using offensive powers like using the echo location as a sound wave attack where morbius is better with complicated and creative powers like flying and bat control.

I somehow managed to go into this movie almost totally blind-I literally didn’t even know Jared Leto played Morbius until I looked up reviews afterwards…and thank god, because knowing that would have *really* hampered my enjoyment. Anyways, the vampire element was the one selling point for me. And, oddly enough, it delivered what the edgy, vampire-crazed teen within me craved. Don’t get me wrong: it’s a bad movie. It’s so inconsistent and rushed, and so many ideas aren’t explored as much as they should be. But if you’re a vampire lover looking for a quick, mindless fix, maybe give this a shot.
