      @@hexagonshorts2186 I think everyone at Sony was well aware that the movie was Shit and the Internet was roasting it. But I don't believe Sony thought people actually liked the movie. They hoped people would want to watch it for Shit and Giggles and for its infamy at 2nd release. They were not successful with that assumption.

    Sony misinterpreting the ironic love for Morbius as real interest and rereleasing the movie only to have it bomb again is such a perfectly hilarious ending to the morbin' saga that it's almost hard to believe it really happened. Sometimes the internet can be very, very good.

    @d_a_o_u_r ปีที่แล้ว +3083

    I think an important element to Morbius' success as an ironic meme worth mentioning is that it had a perfect storm of detractors. People that hate comic book movies hated it because it was a comic book movie, people that love comic book movies hated it because they could see through Sony's soulless, corporate-driven attempt to compete with the MCU. This combined with the movie being straight-up bad, Jared Leto being a weirdo and all other factors made Sony the perfect target of derision. It was a mocking campaign fueled by justified cynicism, and it was glorious.

      I feel like Matt Smith understood the assignment, whenever an actor has played the Doctor appears in other media, the DW fans joke that "the Doctor appears and is obviously the hero here the actual hero is secretly evil'
      And kind of just was like 'right, this is weirder than terminator genysis and Doctor Who, let's have some fun'.
      That, or he's just genuinely that fond of acting he always gives his all- which seems to be the case, even with subpar writing and directing, Matt Smith always seems to give it his all to make it the best performance you've ever seen.
      But yeah, he's still the doctor XD

      Yea meme didn’t die. It just kept being used by people who really should stop using it as it’s not really funny and pretty annoying to see it.
      Most of people who use them meme however do get so many likes to point i feel like why do people find something that was funny for a while then got too old and overused and ran to ground.
      Then again lately a lot memes are like that. When they first came out it is fun time to joke around and have good time then afterwards yea they just got less funny and creative as time goes on. With maybe few exceptions. People really need to learn let things go and pace themselves with memes and jokes so they can remain funny and relevant in the future.
