I honestly thought Morbius was a breath of fresh air for ditching the "Self-aware, meta, woke!" trends that MCU was chasing and just told a dark transhumanist story with super heroish themes.
Like I'd rather watch Morbius again than most of the MCU films made Post-End Game.
And Warcraft really wasn't a bad movie at all, it was just bitten by the "Anything that is in the Fantasy Genre is automatically a LOTR ripoff!" bug that had been going around for awhile.
If it had came out around the time when audiences stopped caring about what critics think (Sonic's 2020 film seems to be where that started), it would have done a lot better (Sonic leading the way for video game movies being taken seriously also would have helped)...
Hell if Warcraft (2016) had come out in 2020, that would have been after Blizzard's fall from grace ("Don't you guys have phones? No? Time to shit all over the WoW lore and ruin Overwatch then!"), meaning that people would probably
Finally, I'm still firmly in the camp that in 10 years people will come around on the sequels like they did for the prequels (Last Jedi might still be considered the "Not as good" one admittedly). I can't say the same about the various "Franchise fatigue? What's that?" shows that Disney ~~kept~~ keeps greenlighting though.

Vanilla Sky
The Lone Ranger (2013). Yeah it's at least a half hour longer than it should have been but I thought it was a fun movie
Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker is a great movie.
I don’t care what anyone else says. My son and I have rewatched the ST many times now. I really don’t see that much of a problem with the writing and direction of each film.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It has one of my favourite space-opera scenes ever in the cavalry charge across the hull of a star destroyer! Other than it was at best okay but that scene was ridiculous in the best way!

People hate the JJ Star Trek films? I've only ever heard nothing but praise for them.
