Do you remember when people on social media faked demand for its return to the theater? Sony obliged and no one showed up? https://www.thenewdaily.com.au/entertainment/movies/2022/06/07/sony-re-release-morbius “It’s morbin’ time!”
I wonder if Sony was just wanting to do a cinematic adaptation of the Spiderman 2 game where Kraven kills several other Spidey villains and then finally gets killed by Venom. That was an A+ story in the game. Maybe that was their hope all along with these shitty movies?
