If you’ve been doing anything other than living under a rock for the past couple of months then you will have noticed that ‘Morbius’ has become the biggest joke movie of the year after everyone just decided that Jared Leto playing a living vampire was a great candidate to become the most memorable part of 2022.

Bizarrely, the fact that ‘Morbius’ ended up being such a joke led to Sony re-releasing the movie at cinemas in America over the weekend and it ended up flopping even harder than it did the first time around, only pulling in about $300,000 off 1087 screens – just $660 a screen. To make matters worse, Jared Leto has also tried to reclaim the meme for his own by posting the following video on his Twitter account where he acknowledges it and tries to make a joke about it:

FYI Bartholemew Cubbins is the alias that Leto uses when he directs 30 Seconds To Mars videos. How meta of the guy.
Anyway, that video is kind of funny but Jared Leto is such a dickhead that I feel like this coupled with the’Morbius’ terrible box office performance may mean that the ‘Morbius’ meme is over for now. You know when the people that the meme are about get involved with it that it isn’t going to have too many more legs in it.
That’s a damn shame because I’ve really been enjoying them all for the past couple of months. The powers that be always have to step in and ruin everything though don’t they? Assholes.
