MORBIUS | April 1 2022 | Sony | Returns to 1000+ theaters June 3rd because we live in a simulation

It'll be interesting to see how a movie does when it's only redeeming quality is a connection to the MCU. the trailer certainly isn't doing MCU or Venom numbers that's for sure.

Pretty darn poor trailer views. Even Alita's first trailer had much better views. Hell, this is struggling to do even Bloodshor numbers. Looks like a sure shot flop even with the marvel logo and MCU references. Like sub 50M domestic.Sub 150M ww.

It's at 9M+ views (including IGN) after one day and should get to 20M easily. It is certainly no Venom but not low enough to guarantee a flop.

They got Eminem for Venom. I think Evanescence would be a good choice for the Morbius single

trailer is actually pretty good but then you find out the writers were responsible for Gods of Egypt, Transformers: The Last Knight, and Men in Black: International...

 

If that's not a red flag, then I don't know what is.

But Eminem is still relevant. Do people talk about Evanescence anymore?

It's not a red flag, it's a lie. The writers didn't work on Transformers: The Last Knight and Men in Black: International. That user is lying.

Yeah, trailer views don't mean much.

 

I predicted low numbers for Black Panther because of pretty mediocre trailer views and look what happened there !

This was such a lucky shot for sony, getting Eminem is always good and the song was such a banger. Pusha T - No problem was also pretty good, but wasnt released, a big mistake imo.

Hmmm yeah, seems Art Marcum and Matt Holloway (the T:TLK and MLB: International writers) aren't credited on IMDb so I'll take their wikipedia credits as false until proven otherwise. 

 

Even so, Matt Shazma and Burk Sharpless haven't necessarily had the greatest track records either (Gods of Egypt, The Last Witch Hunter, Dracula Untold). Not saying that's a tell tale sign it'll be bad but it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence either.

 Art Marcum and Matt Holloway are credited writers and they were writers for Transformers 5 and Men in Black international

It has more views than the last Birds of Prey trailer, so according to that theory, birds of prey is doing sub $100M worldwide

I hope they make it a tradition to get Eminem for every sony marvel movie lol him or NF. They're my 2 favorite

[DlAMONDZ]

Evanescence? lol I haven't heard that name in a min

[CoolioD1]

evanescence would actually be a great choice for the song because this looks like some shit from 2003.

[The Futurist]

Is Morbius popular with comic book readers at least ? 

[Godzilla]

Last time I hear a Evanescence song was in like 2006.

Not really. He is pretty much a B list Spidey villain.

 

[Captain Craig]

I feel a lot better about this first Morbius trailer than I did Venom, either of them.

Curious to hear what the budget is to better gauge what a bar of success should be.

Looking forward to the second trailer for more f/x, I feel we got some decent exposition in this first trailer.
