Memes, meta-commentary and jokes are more than likely behind the idea to resurrect #Morbius - a decision that has so far turned out to be pretty disastrous. indy100.com/showbiz/morbiu…
Why re-release? It appears that Sony Pictures, the studio behind the film, reckoned that a #morbiussweep was on because a lot of people were joking about the phantom line 'it's morbin time.'
This past weekend. Sony re-released Morbius in 1,000 cinemas across the United States after its initial release in April. The studio hoped to top up tepid domestic box office figures.
On average, it looks like the film sold around six tickets per cinema on the first day of the weekend re-release. According to @forbes, it made just $85,000 on that Friday.
