Marvel’s Morbius has utterly disappointed its fans, while the film built immense hype when its trailers were dropped, promising a fresh take in the vampire genre, taking place in the superhero universe. However, when the film was released on the big screens, it became evident that the film was far from the lofty expectations set by the fans and the critics. The film is incohesive and fails to leave any lasting impact on its viewers.
However, 2 years after the Jared Leto starrer, Martin Scorsese has given his take on the supernatural film. Well, that’s what Tyrese Gibson believed, as he became a victim of a hilarious prank done by the trolls, where the actor believed that the renowned filmmaker had given his ultimate take on the Jared Leto starrer.
Fake Martin Scorsese Quote Circulates The Internet Mocking Jared Leto’s Morbius
There’s no denying that the 2022 Sony film was one of the most disappointing Marvel films that lacked the special effects, showcasing disappointing visuals and an inconsistent plotline, making it a disappointing film that fails to pull the audience. However, Gibson, the Morbius star fell for a fake quote from none other than the legendary director, Martin Scorsese.
On the occasion of April Fools Day, a fake quote started circulating around the internet praising the Marvel movie calling it the “height of cinema.” A user by the name Honky Pete (@LynchUnhinged) shared the quote on X with the caption, “Martin Scorsese commented after watching #Morbius.”
The quote said,
“I was aghast to find out it was based on a comic book. This is the truest height of cinema and even I cannot top it. A wise man admits when he is wrong and I was wrong, I apologize to all comic book movies.”
A lot of people on the internet had a hearty laugh upon reading the quote because of how terrible ended up and it became one of the worst superhero films to be ever made in the modern era. The film had a score of 15% on the Tomatometer.
However, the quote became ten folds funnier, when the Fast Five actor believed it to be true and went on his social media platform to share a post.
Fans Troll The Star For Sharing The Fake Quote
If fans believe the quote was funny, taking a hilarious jab at the 2022 film, using Scorsese, but what unfolded following the quote circulating the internet was how Tyrese Gibson believed the quote to be true. In a now-deleted post, the actor shared the quote on his Instagram with a picture of Scorsese from the film’s screening and a caption.
He wrote,
“Wow wow wow I can’t believe what just happened whoa……. Cheers and hats off to you @daniel_espinosa this is so amazing King! This is the KING of KINGS of cinema Martin Scorsese this is huge…….”
It is surprising to believe that Gibson thinks that the film was a good movie to watch. However, fans could not get enough of it as a fan (@perdhap2) shared it on X, and fans are having a great time over it, as they shared their reactions on the platform.
Tyrese can rest easy, knowing that he's been in movies that even Scorsese would recognize as peak Cinema https://t.co/udR72R4cvh pic.twitter.com/E0nSTpUWGI
