Morbius – BIG

Morbius, the film based on the Marvel Comics’ vampire villain, received poor critic and viewer reviews following its release back in April 2022, but against all odds, the beleaguered Jared Leto-starring film has managed to find success on streaming.

Fandango, the owner of Vudu, recently announced in a press release that Morbius was the number one film in terms of revenue for the streaming service during the week of June 13th. Amazon also confirmed that the Spider-Man spin-off is the number one film on its Prime Video Store.

This means that viewers are actually paying either $5.99 USD (roughly $7.78 CAD) to rent or $19.99 USD (about $25.95 CAD) to watch the movie on the platform.

Morbius also sits in the top three movies on the in ‘Top Movies Chart’ on Apple TV, but that may change over time, as new films typically top Apple’s charts for at least a few days.

In Canada, Morbius is available to rent on Apple TV for $6.99 and to buy for $24.99.

The latest of Rick-Roll pranks has recently plagued Discord servers, and instead of it having Rick Astley grooving to “Never Gonna Give You Up,” it includes Jared Leto.

People have started sharing a WEBM link on Discord servers which actually is the full 90-minute Morbius film. Yep, the same movie that received a 5.2/10 IMDb rating and a 17 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes (RT). “Cursed with uninspired effects, rote performances, and a borderline nonsensical story, this dreary mess is a vein [vain] attempt to make Morbius happen,” reads the Critics Consensus on RT.

BE CAREFUL EVERYONE

some freaks are posting a webm video to discords (with the title full-1_1.webm) that when clicked loads up a 90 minute long video that is in fact the entirety of the film Morbius. If you click it, you will lose 90 minutes to crazy morbin' action. Be warned.

This might be one of the few instances when people are complaining about receiving a full movie for absolutely free that was released fairly recently. Considering that the movie is considered one of the worst Marvel titles, the trolling and hate might just be justified.

If you see a video titled “Full-1_1” on a public Discord server, proceed with caution.
