I'm old enough to remember upgrading our Netflix subscription so that we could have up to three DVDs out at a time. You're so lucky! My subscription is only set at two, though they can be Blu-rays.

One of my classes was Business Librarianship, and in that class we had to pick and follow five stocks. Netflix was my primary, because even then I knew it was going to be big. It far exceeded my expectations, and I always bemoan the fact that I had no actual money to invest with at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Walsh Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hm. Looks like they decided to make this version use a focus, instead of having inherent powers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted March 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 Probably, because arm/skin stretching is actually horrible looking? Edited: unnatural looking. Wonder if they keep the stretching for Reed as in FF or change it. Lawnmower Boy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archer Posted March 16, 2022 Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 It also looks like she has more powers than stretching and size-changing. I'm not a huge fan of the character. But I'm not a fan of changing the power set of existing characters just because of changing formats from comics to the TV. Does look like it could potentially be fun (as long as she leaves behind her "normal life" friends and the show focuses on her hero's journey).

I really think they should have plunked down the cash to "Reed Richards" her, seeing as they want her for the next generation of heroes.

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Morbius is not being reviewed a lot yet but what I have seen is not positive. One guy loved the 4 episodes of Moon Knight -- might be best ever Marvel product -- but he said Morbius has great acting but horrible writing and directing, like 5 out of 10 level. I think Sony is just slamming this stuff out for a cash grab: Venom made money, where's another villain we can make a hero movie about??

Grailknight Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Venom is a villain even it it's best portrays. Moribus is a guy who had bad luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they should have done was adapted some of the stuff, I think in 90s, when Morbius was teaming up with Blade to hunt Vampires. IIRC, Black Cat or Silver Sable was with them.
