It has certainly had more cultural staying power than various blockbuster releases because, well, it can’t be spoiled, nobody cares what actually happens, and nobody wants to actually watch it in a legal capacity whatsoever. A few of the streams have been taken offline, but several still remain. This is in large part thanks to made-up catchphrases like “It’s morbin time”, terrible image macros, and general tomfoolery.

Twitch Shuts Down 24/7 Morbius Livestream Channel (CBR)

Twitch officially shuts down Morbius247, a channel dedicated to streaming Sony's much-maligned Spider-Man spinoff movie around the clock.

Director Daniel Espinosa defended the decision to remove the more obvious nods to the Wall-Crawler, noting that it was just part of the filmmaking process. Following Morbius' release on Digital and Blu-ray, fans were quick to poke fun at Sony's latest entire in its Spider-Man Universe. Many mocked the name of the titular character, joking that the Living Vampire "Morbed" his victims while others latched onto a scene of Lucien Crown (Matt Smitt) dancing. Many viewers spammed the chat with the phrase, "It's morbin' time" in reference to a popular meme associated with the Jared Leto-led superhero film.

Enjoyable Disaster Morbius Finds Thousands Of New Fans On ... (Kotaku)

I've been watching Sony and Marvel's Jared Leto-led vampire flick all morning, and it's a Morbing good time.

And while it appears that some of the live channels streaming the film are slowly getting taken down, a few of the Morbius VODs remain available to rewatch. It appears this broadcast was live for over a dozen hours—streaming the film again and again—before the channel was taken down. Honestly, I can’t either, and maybe that’s the point—especially with everything going on. “They want people to pirate the movie because nobody’s buying it.” As if that’s not already more Morbius than anyone could require, folks were also getting Morbius, the entire movie, sent to them in Discord messages earlier this week. That’s what’s been happening with Marvel and Sony’s Jared Leto-led vampire flick Morbius, which has been streaming nonstop to thousands of viewers since yesterday.

Since then, there have been a few Twitch streamers who have attempted to stream the film on the platform, resulting in more accounts facing bans and penalties. Twitch's terms of service make it clear that an account can be banned for copyright violations — and streaming a film in its entirety on a loop is definitely a copyright violation. The meme has gone so far that people have found ways to share the entire film online — even going as far as to stream it on platforms like Twitch. The Twitch account "Morbius247" managed to stream the film for 12 hours before getting banned.

Essentially, Morbius is like one of those off-brand DVDs that mimic the appearance and titles of popular Disney/Pixar films, in the hope that confused grandmothers might buy them for their grandchildren. However, the film is experiencing a strange afterlife online, in the form of the wildly enthusiastic, 100% ironic Morbius fandom. Eventually, Leto gracefully accepted a wheelchair to speed up the process.

Morbius Memes Are The Internet At Its Most Wholesome (TheGamer)

This is a Morbhead's world and we're all just living in it. Eat, sleep, Morb, repeat. We all live to worship the sex god that is Michael Morbius. He's a genius, ...

Instead of sending nudes, you send Morbs, infecting your friends with the majesty of Michael Morbius and a comic book film so epic it must be seen to be believed. For that we actually owe Morbius a lot, and how it was able to turn an otherwise vitriolic place into one where all are again. Earlier this week saw a swarm of accounts streaming the entire film on Twitch to their bloodthirsty viewers. We all live to worship the sex god that is Michael Morbius. He’s a genius, and the protagonist of the greatest comic book film in existence. Despite the film being out for months at this point it feels like the memes have only increased, with a simple scroll through TikTok revealing a number of brilliant jokes that paint the film as an almost holy piece of art, something that will go down in history as a cinematic legend that deserves all the sequels, praise, and fans in the world. Things reached a fever pitch this week with fans sending the entirety of Morbius to their friends on Discord in the form of a 47MB file that feels like you’re watching it on a Nintendo DS or PSP, which is definitely how Jared Leto would want his work to be seen.
