You can't convince me that the meme surrounding these films wasn't a corporate guerilla marketing tactic. It came out of nowhere and doesn't seem at all funny enough to be as big of a meme as its become.
You're not wrong about shameless marketing in the form of memes, but whether the intention was a distraction type op or just out of touch marketers trying to recreate the Morbius phenomenom, i dont think we can say. I can also agree that the memes aren't funny at all just like Morbius memes.
