This attempt at using Morbius in a standalone film is like if Sega decided to do a Sonic Game with Rotor Walrus as the Main Character

He was also one of the corniest parts of the 90’s animated series series with his European accent and his love triangle with Felicia Hardy where Felicia seemingly couldn’t decide who she wanted to be with. Morbius, Spider-Man, Morbius, Spider-Man, Morbius, Spider-Man, etc. she had 5 or 6 changes of heart during the show.

And because they couldn't get away with him sucking blood, they instead have him crave plasma and put tiny mouths on his hands to suck out.

That’s because they didn’t give him the plasma-sucking hands like from the Spidey cartoon.

Anyone actually thought it was gonna be good? This dude, for sure: I mean, he kinda has a point. Not about the "woke" thing, that's stupid. But everything everybody is saying about Morbius they were saying about Venom before it came out, and it wound up being a solid movie that made more then Justice League at the box office.

Critic scores are woke? Does that even mean anything? It stopped meaning anything years ago. At this point it's just another buzzword that people throw in as justification for "Things I don't like and/or disagree with." I mean, he kinda has a point. Not about the "woke" thing, that's stupid. But everything everybody is saying about Morbius they were saying about Venom before it came out, and it wound up being a solid movie that made more then Justice League at the box office. I don't think even a semi-convincing argument can be made for either Venom movie being anything besides huge trash fires, but they were fun trash fires and had audience appeal largely due to the enduring popularity of the titular character and two batshit crazy performances from Tom Hardy. Morbius doesn't really have any of that going for it.

Like even if it was improper english meaning its overly liberal agenda stuff, its a Marvel movie starring a handsome white guy who was white in the comics.

The "non-woke" world view is that something exactly like that is everything the "woke mainstream media" hates, so in this case a Marvel movie with limited "woke" elements is getting savaged by critics not because it's a bad movie, but because it's not woke enough. It's a reverse Last Jedi situation. The funny thing is this guy railing against wokeness while saying he likes the Venom movies. Movies starring a bisexual actor who's stated he's playing the roles as a love story between a man and a male-coded alien.

Pretty much everything I've seen of the Venom movies they strike me as an utter trash heap headlined by an absolutely terrible performance but at least, like, Venom is one of the most famous and widely beloved comic characters in the world, no one knows who the hell Morbius is.

According to multiple people who've seen the movie... {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}All references to Spider-Man have been cut.
Both the scenes from the trailers in which Michael Keaton appeared have been cut.
Keaton only appears in a post-credit scene and it's not clear if he's playing Vulture or another character.

Remember this was supposed to come out before Far From Home before all those delays..
I can imagine a writer in the cinema watching SM and shouting f*** when he saw that scene and then the credits roll

Remember, this movie finished principle photography in June 2019, a full 16 months before No Way Home even started filming. Reshoots then took place in February 2020 and February 2021, which is where I guess the Spider-Man and MCU connections were added, possibly with the assumption that the crossover would be a permanent thing.
It would not shock me at all if the creative team on Morbius were kept in the dark over No Way Home and the final delay from January to April '22 is because they've had to scramble to remove all the multiverse links.
Though, for what it's worth, Sony are still posting videos teasing the multiverse:
