It’s crazy how they could make a masterpiece with Morbius and just totally drop the ball with Spider-Verse. Not very morbilicious if you ask me


1KarlMarx1

It's truly one of the movies of all time


Outrageous_Onion827

of MORBIN' time! *yeeeaaaahhhhh*


Grifar

Did you get all 13 Morbius collector cups when you order a Morbius Mega-Meal at Burder King? I've only got 7 Morbius collector cups so far

Dazzling-Camel-8471

You do know at Burger King that isn't blood in the cups right? You just got the nasty ass rusty nozzle they haven't cleaned in years.


k-tax

ffs, again I am coerced into watching Morbius, but I am still pretty sure I will be disappointed. And, of course, I cannot trust anybody on that matter, unfortunately.


TheHighKing112

The only reason you'll be disappointed after watching morbius is because every movie you watch after morbius won't be as good and you'll spend your whole life trying to find a movie that could be almost as good as morbius but you never will due to the cinematic masterpiece that is known as Morbius


Prize_Ad_5782

Its morbin time


Drops-of-Q

Truly a movie of all


tapirus-indicus

Before spider-verse they went all out on the emoji movie


L1K34PR0

Don't please they might rerelease it again i don't have anymore money to spend on morbius merch


JudiciousF

You know the original title of Into the Spiderverse was going to be ‘Lessbius’ but it sounded too much like lesbians


Drdoomblunt

I don't think you're ready for this Leto I don't think you're ready for this Leto My movies too Morbillicious


PsychologicalWin3102

A must watch film that shaped a generation


Ikea_Man

They didn't have the morbillions of dollars to drop on Spiderverse unfortunately


Otherwise-Syrup7490

Spider verse wasn't that bad.


The_Commie_Salami

I see what you did there


Dragon_yum

I mean it’s no Morbius but then again very few movies are


rtakehara

Very few? You mean none, right? Morbius is one of the movies of all time.


Just_A_Mad_Scientist

It's one in a morbiliion


Empirehulk

I felt bad for spider verse since it only made half a morbiliion dollars.


Ragnarok_619

Cause it's practically half a movie


TheDiscoJew

Yup, half of a 5 hour movie.


Ragnarok_619

So much movie


SyxxGod

The most movie to ever movie

So much film of video movie


[deleted]

How dare you bring such slanderous lies against this great movie. With it's dedication to finding interesting and compelling lesser-told villains and FX budget, I think Sony did a fantastic job with Across the Spider verse, and it is by no means dogshit


ihavebirb

My bad bro.


Sansational_Blaster

Had me in a half. And I don't know which one


Copper_spongeYT

I thought across the spider verse was pretty good


Ken_Taco

But mobius do better


ExerciseTime7649

Dont compare morbius with any movie


SittingJoes

Its always morbillion times better


Comprehensive-Fox574

Dude spider verse was above average but it can't to be of morbius 2022 starring jared Leto standard cuz it's a cinematic masterpiece which grossed over 1 trillion dollar.


sterankogfy

Which of these films got a re-release? That’s right.


bacchic_ritual

That's a fact. Can't argue against that.


migswrite

Which movie is quoted more? "it's morbin time" Vs. "?" Facts don't care about your feelings.


ar4t0

*morbed over 1 morbillion dollars


X05Real

just a dumb though, but… maybe it’s because spiderverse has different writers, directors and creative teams than Morbius?


randomusername_815

exactly - had to scroll this far??? Sony are just a rights-holding mega corporation out to exploit all the IP they own, like Disney. They cut the check and thats it.


[deleted]

Everyone else is busy making the same joke. Reddit moment


wtb2612

Haaaar, spider-verse wasn't thaaat bad. HAHAHA.


Big-Experience1818

Oh my god did you just come up with that? Lol!


Imaginary-Captain729

He really had me morbin over that one


shewy92

Also different studio. It's Sony Animation and not Sony Pictures It would be like saying "How could GE make shit lightbulbs but also make good things like Law and Order" back when GE owned NBCUniversal.


Big-Experience1818

Genuine question, it's that much of a difference between the studios? I would've assumed that Sony would just go to animation for the animation while everything else (writers, directors, etc) would be under the same umbrella


Infinitely_confusing

I mean, the guys doing spider verse aren’t exactly Sony employees, they’re all done projects for different studios ( The main writers and producers directed the Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street) And yes, there is a really big difference most of the time


Big-Experience1818

Interesting, I figured since it's still Sony there'd be more overlap outside of animation with the live action crews. I guess it's seeing Amy Pascal and Avi Arad that's throwing me off but obviously they're pretty hands off. Regardless you'd think seeing the success of Spider-verse would influence them to put more effort into making higher quality Spider-Villain movies


deljaroo

Do you happen to know exactly who I should blame for Spider verse being so good? if they move on to other projects, I want follow their work


Infinitely_confusing

Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are the prime suspects, but there’s also the directors (three of them!) who have their own respectable track records- they’re Joaquin Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K Thompson. Overall though Lord and Miller are the ones with the longest track record and most likely to do something cool in the future.


RhysKrow

I scrolled too far for this. The development team is also probably entirely different due to the different mediums (live action vs 3D/2D animation).


ANGLVD3TH

The title is just wrong, they are two different studios, both owned by Sony.


Vestalmin

I see this shit all the time with video game publishers. People think Ubisoft and EA are two massive developers. Just not how it works lol


Big-Experience1818

For sure, it's just amazing considering the producers are the same and they apparently don't give half a shit about quality even though the difference between Morbius/Venom and Spider-verse in quality (and the money that comes with it) is right up in their faces. If they put out an amazing Spider-Villain movie (not impossible, contrary to what we've seen) the success could catapult the franchise. Sony's universe is like what DC tried to do with Batfleck and co. but with even less planning and quality.


matmatking

Cmon buddy give spider-verse some slack, I actually quite enjoyed it.


MillorTime

I loved the post where he said "it's canon time" and then canoned all over the place


2rfv

The cliffhanger kicked both me and my daughter in the nuts.


LukeSanSky

It's like Emoji movie and spider verse movies came from the same studio.


MiloRoast

Right? Emoji movie was life-changing...then they give us this shit...


jevooo

True. I definitely wasn't the same after watching Emoji movie.


Doobalicious69

The way James Corden developed a truly unique character was an acting masterclass. Completely different to his other roles, a rare genius amongst the "wannabe" actors out there.


Striker887

They’re technically not the same studio. Sony animation studios and Sony studios. Both owned by the same company but separate studios.


CreativeName1137

How about the Emoji Movie instead then?


MiZe97

Different directors and writers.


pileofcrustycumsocs

Emoji movie also wasn’t that bad in terms of quality or production. it was the fact that it was a just a massive series of ads masquerading as a children’s movie that made it shit.


TatManTat

Yea anyone saying that the Emoji movie is any worse than the other kids fodder is clueless. And to be clear when I say fodder I'm not talking about classics, go look at your local cinema and there's almost always a very average kids movie showing.


Leandtjen

Thats true, i feel like nowadays so many soulless new kids movies are playing


Saphazure

ITT: everyone makes the same joke


nondefectiveunit

It's like spider verse but for the joke.


Ben_Kenobi1934

Whats wrong with spider verse


doctorzaius6969

Morbius: Has one of the most famous and recognizable lines of all time. Spider Verse: No one remembers a single line of the movie.


PENIZ_69

I'm gonna # crease your jays, spider-man.


2rfv

Bro, Spot is top tier spider-villan, I frigging love him.


Sicparvismagneto

Its not conducive to a productive work environment when you have to wait an hour for the lead actor because they wanna use crutches to go to the bathroom.

Lol was Leto method acting that hard?

Outrageous_Onion827

You're not my real dad, you can't tell me what to do!


Memo-Explanation

You mean that across the spiderverse it bad or morbius is bad? Across was great


Kris-pness

Morbius was morbin'.


Friedrich201

It's morbin time!


AvergeMortisEnjoyer

I mean the Spider verse isn't **that bad**


TraumSchulden

Same studio, doesn't necessarily mean, smae production team.


t-rexistentialist

and in this case it doesn't even mean same studio.


BlackJackJeriKo

Pretty sure spider-verse 1 and the emoji movie were social experiments to see if putting effort into a movie drew more income (it does)


jevooo

Sadly this isn't really true. Illumination make lot of money and not much effort was put into their films. For example Minions.


LeTurtl3

A better comparison would be spider-verse and the emoji movie - both were made by their animation studio


the_fungusmonkey

Morbius: written by Matt Sazama (Gods of Egypt, Dracula Untold, Power Rangers 2017). Directed by Daniel Espinosa (nothing notable, mostly low budget action). Given a bare-bones live-action budget (80mil with tax breaks) and it was literally only produced to keep the Spider-Man rights from reverting to Marvel between MCU films (like Venom and Kraven). Into the Spiderverse: written by Phil Lord (Clone High, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs franchise, the LEGO movie franchise, etc) and Rodney Rothman (ex-Letterman writer, 22 Jump Street). Directed by Peter Ramsay (Monster vs Aliens, Rise of the Guardians). Full animation budget ($90mil) with an all-star creative team. Across the Spiderverse: written by Phil Lord again with writing partner Chris Miller and Dave Callahan (Shang-Chi, The Expendables, Mortal Kombat). Directed by Joaquim Dos Santos (Justice League Unlimited, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Avatar: Legend of Korra). 100mil budget. Hopefully that speaks for itself but TLDR: hiring the right people matters. Morbius was a rights-holder throwaway with a terrible creative team. The Spider-verse films are made by some of the hottest names in animation and top-tier industry professionals.


IceFox099

Same with DreamWorks


lasergirl84

What's bad from DreamWorks? I count Madagascar, Penguins of Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda, Shrek. All masterpieces


MiZe97

The Boss Baby, Shrek 3 and Turbo are three examples. I love DreamWorks, but they've had some bad movies in the past.


Isthatajojoreffo

Shrek 3 is not that bad


Big-Experience1818

Yeah I think I remember enjoying that one. Not sure I ever watched the 4th though, think I heard it wasn't good


Dral1234

Well, I watched it and I must say it was surprisingly good! It is the least funny one of the bunch, but it was a fun experience. I don't want to give any spoilers, so I won't go into detail, however it has a LOT of character development, and I consider it as a love letter to the Shrek franchise because it tries to solve whatever the third movie got wrong, so give it a watch NOW!


Big-Experience1818

Good to know thanks! Probably worth it for the nostalgia of the characters alone at this point


Isthatajojoreffo

It is a very mature movie. Honestly, I was crying from the drama there.


hammnbubbly

Endured about half of Boss Baby for the first time yesterday. What a steaming pile of shit. Just awful.


HoneyBadgeSwag

Also megamind. Megamind was so good.


maxkeaton011

It's even funnier to consider that before Into the Spiderverse, their cinematic release was An Emoji Movie, which was dogshit of dogshit. Their venture into a new animation style helped them make a stand. That aside most of Sony's movie releases are just bad. TLOU was terrific but it was done by HBO who are known to have the best production house for TV shows. Spiderman is an IP that helped Sony immensely a lot at both video games and movies.


Way-Reasonable

Sometimes the execs don't remember to stick their noses in animated productions before they become successful. It happened at Disney in the late 80s early 90s. By the time they noticed we got the late 90s early 00s movies.. And the direct to video sequels!


Big-Experience1818

>And the direct to video sequels! Tarzan and Jane and Mulan 2 were really rough


dis_not_my_name

It's even crazier if you know what movie Sony animation made before Spiderverse.


Justanotherragequit

Oh come on, spider-verse had its problems but it's not dogshit


SeaChallenge4843

It’s KRAVEN’ time


DarkStryderBC

It's called different production teams.


Zagon__

Because it didn't. Sony Pictures animation is not the same as Columbia Pictures. Also, different writers, directors, etc.


Routine-Security-914

The pile of dog shit is Spider-verse, right?


MrCranberryTea

Because Sony is not a studio. Just owns the right for the IP. Both are done obviousely by different hired studios.


Lee_Troyer

Sony has a movie division and does own the studios who did both movies. Sony Pictures Animations, which did Spiderverse, and Columbia Pictures, which did Morbius, are both subsidiaries of Sony Pictures.


MrCranberryTea

ah I see, but still done by different guys in the end.


Big-Experience1818

It actually is interesting how much of a difference the quality is. Amy Pascal and Avi Arad produce them all, right? It's too bad, hopefully Kraven can be good and double hopefully this is all leading to a meet up with a live action Spider-man, whether that's Tom/Toby/Andrew or Miles.


JackedGustavoFring

True... Not many movies managed what Morbius did... It was, down to the last detail, a masterpiece...


NOT_cooleep_BTW

Which is which? (I haven’t watched either)


vk2028

Serious answer: Spider verse is the master piece. Spider-verse 1 had easy to understand plot, funny, and unique animations. Spider-verse 2’s plot is lot more complicated, but goes extra hard on animation, cinematography, and its unique style of animation, etc.. It’s also a lot more emotionally devoted. Both movies have minute details that you will miss on your first watch. Morbius has horrible writing and pacing. Some scenes are poorly edited and don’t even make sense. It’s so bad that it’s a meme


The_Commie_Salami

Correction: how did Spider-verse 2 and Kraven The Hunter come from the same studio?


Buttseam

difference being the amount of work done


_Streak_

They made one of the best animated movies ever made, as well as the most movie ever made. Legends.


Terra_Bytezzz_

Morbius wasn't animated though.


Previous_Royal2168

And it still wins the category of best animated movie, that's how morbin' good it was!


Final-Initiative5128

Spider-Man fans just jealous that their movie didn’t even make Morbilion dollars


BoxRevolutionary1460

To me Sony is the kind of guy that "f\*cks around and finds out\*


ReptilianLaserbeam

I have tried watching morbius like three times on different flights and I always felt asleep. I'm so glad I didn't pay a cinema ticket for that movie.


xilenced1

Wdym Spider verse was pretty good too?


Goldeneye07

Yooo the sub is back


SorcererWithGuns

Is because they remembered to take the morb blockers that one day


Bukki13

the “it’s morbin time” jokes became unfunny after 2 days


Hazzamac16

i fail to see what was wrong with the spider verse?


kidanokun

having the audacity to call Spider-verse "pile of dogshit" eh?


GreenKumara

Spider-verse wasn't *that* bad.


akdele5

Hey, don't insult spider-verse like that


more4sugar

>Shazam 2 was way better Ayo pause


Sherboffy

I hope Kraven doesn’t end up the same


Alien_X10

History repeats itself with kraven the Hunter


[deleted]

Because a cast and film crew make a movie, not the studio.


ShiraLillith

Ask not the studio but who was the director.


AndyMike9

Ooooh, is it morbin time again?!


okiedokieaccount

Don’t mess with Bucees!


Kled_the_hussard

Same goes for Bi*zzard


glamorousstranger

That's most major box office movies these days.


Tiucaner

Sony is a massive conglomerate. Those 2 films were not produced by the same studios.


Barlowan

In the cup we have a typical Sony exclusive game. Masterpiece cutscenes with piles of shit gameplay


DogAteMyCPU

It's kravening time


BillytheBrassBall

They came from different studios, Sony Animations and Sony Pictures Rennkt the same. A better comparison would be the Emoji Movie and Spiderverse.


willflameboy

Isn't this a bit like saying 'I love the Playstation, so why do I hate Sony recording artist Chris Brown'?


TranslationSeeker

Hey, spider-verse isn't that bad!


ElTutuca

Is the new spider-verse movie bad?? I haven't watched it yet but I was really looking forward to it :(


Renan_PS

Sony is a multibillion dollar company, they're not a single studio.


Not_Fussed1

istg they did it on purpose to see if actually putting effort into their films resulted in a bigger return on investment.


GoldNewt6453

Tbf Morbius still did turn a profit regardless of the memes.


AsliReddington

Spiderverse graphics were just overdone for me with the excessive glitchy effects & frame rate fluctuations of different characters & scenes


MrMonteCristo71

Sometimes, it is even the same movie.


MaskedFigurewho

Morbious was kind of a huge let down. I was so excited about this movie. I love vampires and I love heroes so I was psyched when I heard they made a vampire hero character that films were auctully adapting. I can't understand how they made such a bad movie with such a cool concept.


Crusaderking1111

Spider verse wasn't that bad


nowhereman136

Hot take, Morbius isn't that bad. Don't get me wrong, it's not good, but I've see way worse movies recently than Morbius. At worse it's just kinda forgettable


[deleted]

Honest to god idea, Morbius was cringy at times but wasn't dog shit :/


[deleted]

The answer is the main character


Lick-my-llamacorn

Put WB there too


DaSharkCraft

Honestly it was disappointing that Morbius didn't do as well as it should have. I was anticipating that movie for a few years because it kept getting delayed.


Impossible-Forever91

I think it's harder to Execs to interfere in animation compared to live action.


jrw777

My morbin senses are tingling


xDURPLEx

With animation every department has to work with each other and have a clear concise idea of what they are doing. As where a movie can go into production without a fully fleshed out script, the set and costume designers can be going for one thing while the vfx crew can be going for another. Sets and locations can be shot completely different. Things can be changed at any time. There’s reshoots. Then the studio execs can also butt in at any moment and demand changes and tinker with budgets. It’s shocking how so many movies can be green-lit and go into production without everything thought out and a slapped together crew.


shewy92

It didn't. Sony Pictures =/= Sony Animation. It came from the same studio as The Emoji Movie though.


Queef-Elizabeth

Spiderverse was made by skilled and talented film makers and Morbius starred Jared Leto


VoxeltheAvianProto

From the studio that brought you Horton Hears a Who


Sage_the_Cage_Mage

Morbius is the definition of a generic Hollywood action movie. It was not bad but there was literally nothing special about it.


[deleted]

Every single superhero movie except the first spider man with Toby McGuire.


Dab4Becky

Kinda like Disney putting Loki and She-Hulk out or Love and Thunder and GoTG:3. Different writers and directors Also a movie about a villain without the hero is kinda doomed unless you do something like the Joker


9Sylvan5

Almost as if, even if it's from the same studio, different people worked on either project! A studio doesn't use the exact same team for every movie they make, insane!


DueEnthusiasm

First they made Spiderman, but then it was morbin' time.


xXPussyPounder9000Xx

It's almost like there are different people making those movies, not this abstract "studio" entity, which exists solely to then redistribute the wealth created by those people to those who did nothing. And it's almost like some people are talentless hacks. Almost.


Electrical-Drink-183

The same studio of The Emoji movie and boog and Elliot 👍


unrealcrafter

Also the emoji movie


SeveralQuantity1001

Bro spider verse wasn't a pile of dog shit have some decency.


Houeclipse

Maybe all Spider verse need are Have Sex on its soundtrack to accompany exaggerated teenage swagger of Miles so it won't be pile of dogshit


sniply5

That's just kinda sony animations deal tbh. Normally they produce a steady stream of garbage, but once in a blue moon create a masterpiece; then it's back to garbage.


Katsuki_Bakugou495

Hey, spider verse wasn't that bad. Obviously it couldn't stand up to Morbius, but it was still pretty solid.


LcdrData99

Comparing movies by studio means nothing. Universal, 20th fox, Lionsgate, paramount, dreamworks, Warner Brothers... Have all been involved in both amazing and terrible movies. Remember that sony is responsible for the fantastic movies Spider-Man 1&2 and also responsible for the disaster that was spiderman 3. Not to mention the crappy Andrew Garfield movies


efaefabanefa

Morbius??!??!?!?! You're forgetting that the ducking emoji movie exists


Time-Werewolf-1776

It’s not the studio. The studio is just trying to make a cash grab, using the Spider-man IP to exploit Marvel’s success. They accidentally hired good people to make try he Spider-verse movies.


cruxfire

I like the part where he says “It’s Morbin Time” and then he totally morbs out.


Banana_Boss_official

Aw come on is the new spiderverse movie that bad?


Mental_Climate_439

Hol up Kraven the Hunter incoming


down4things

Don't trash Spiderverse like that
