-
JosMe💯 (@Keepee16) reported@wrld_of_Grace Shazam is not working, I did it 3 times...
-
Bolbi Stroganofsky (@HTL1998) reported@BatKilmer @UltraBiasedFan Apparently it was Emmerich who was so mad at Cavill for turning down a cameo in the first Shazam film that he vindictively did whatever he possibly could to derail his tenure as Superman.
-
Tyme machine 420 (@TymeM10638) reported@PghPublicSafety The city of coincidence. Lets look to our past. They wanted a new stadium to replace 3 rivers. Coincidentally, a wall mysteriously falls during a game. Fake prez Joe Biden came in to town to talk about decaying bridges...Shazam.. Frick park bridge comes down same day. Now 🤔
-
Brian Costello (@BrianRCostello) reportedHe was literally doing the job of a studio CEO in trying to make his company’s product better after audiences not being thrilled with it If the film had been scoring better and not in the same range as Shazam 2 and Batgirl in the 60’s, there would have been no issues
-
𒀭 𝑳𝒆𝒕 𝑴𝒆 𝑰𝒏 ✫彡 (@cosmicfellstar) reportedDabs her up, gives them a cute little hand shake. “I hope we get to work together soon. I haven’t been on any missions at all, so I’m so hyped up to get stuff down. Miss Shazam.”
-
222supergamer (@222supergamer) reported@ingricma87 @mjarbo James Gunn wasn't even involved with Shazam or Blue Beetle. They also just weren't movies people were interested in. TSS was a movie during covid that released in both theaters and in HBO so no duh it didn't make money at the box office. Such terrible comparisons. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
-
Gerald Dean (@Loser_Pot_tard) reported@PlayBkPlay @nikomoon I had the terrible misfortune of hearing Beach Cowboy in a Target the other day. I couldn’t believe how awful it was, and I had to Shazam it to hear who was responsible for such a musical travesty. Seriously, this is why country music gets a bad rap. Complete garbage.
-
Aliff Aziz (@AliffAziz9) reported@OtunbaSebotimo It’s a great movie. The only problem is teenage Billy Batson is played as a serious, street-smart kid, but when he transforms into Shazam, he completely changes into an over-the-top, immature goofball. Doesn’t feels like they the same person
-
ThatDeadHead (@SteveGr16838876) reported@OtunbaSebotimo The problem with the movie the kid actor acted nothing like the Shazam version, he was way too serious and didn't have the same charm
-
Ken Hommel (@TooCloseToTheTV) reported@BackintheBronze Sent cash in for Shazam! then it was cancelled. For the two remaining issues, they sent a Super Friends and a Superman. I also got one of the many subs won in the Superman Trivia Contest. I chose Action so I would get the giant sized #500.
-
Oddy23 (@MandelbrotEater) reported@VelaIka009 @clownvoid Problem is more often than not Shazam is not working
-
pengasys (@pengasys) reported@p3aced3fender2 @doubtfully_xD you cant shazam the song, not because its in arabic, but probably because its taken down from youtube and spotify.
-
trey (@tgold29) reported@SamB_46 Underrated refuge moment that I actually have functioning cell service to Shazam tracks
-
AliceinOH (@MaliceinOH) reported@AndrewC62983550 @GBNEWS Sounds good until a MP is forced to step down so they can install Burnham, then Shazam he's PM in months!
-
emperor elevator 🆙 (@lv8r777) reporteddistrokid stays robbing me 99¢ per track. In the past I only added the shazam discovery to my tracks and ever since apple music bought shazam and make it essentially free to have your songs on shazam if they’re on apple music so to keep that charge valid they have it register with nielsen sounds can and all that ****, which is now called Luminate long story short they by it no right to collect money for a service they don’t provide anymore. i didn’t ask to have my **** on neilson soundscan/luminate, i added the discovery for shazam when that was the only service offered in the discovery pack. @DistroKid you should automatically stop charging for any 99¢/track discovery pack bought before apple bought shazam. or at the very least notify people that shazam is free but they can either continue the discovery w neilson or opt tracks out of that discovery system. ESPECIALLY when i never gave you the rights to have my data on soundscan for those old songs when soundscan registration wasn’t in the discovery pack. you have no right at all that’s like if you had a meal prep delivery company deciding to start sending you **** that’s NOT good and keeping your subscription alive in bad faith because it’s just the same company deluging SOME service
-
obinna. i (@ObinnaIkoku) reported@r0lgar77 @CultureCrave @DCOfficial Everyone did, recasting superman was a dis service. And shazam is soo unlikable it coulfnt fit into a justice league movie, james gun version batman is gonna suck ba*** i can feel it… Now i think about it, james gun modeled his universe after that ****** shazam movie
-
Dean (@deanholz13) reportedAnd here’s the thing, instead pissing money down the drain on Shazam 2, blue beetle, the flash, black Adam and Aquaman 2, they legit should’ve just made JL2&3. The story would be done and then DC could’ve clean rebooted and had a united fanbase open to whatever would’ve been made
-
FrostyFrenchToast 🍞🎀 (@DrywoodTermite) reportedThe only defense i can give on this is that these connected universes gives a kind of “excuse” to use B & C list characters for films. Audiences swung on stuff like Antman and Shazam bc they bought into the wider storyline. The issue is the DCU doesn’t have that appeal
-
Ads (@Adsnewaccount) reported@B3nd3rISGr3at34 @AxelTalksFilm People were willing to give a chance to these characters back then !Shazam is not a bigger character than Supergirl but still had decent numbers !The problem is now people just won’t turn up if it’s not the big 3 or nostalgia stuff like Avengers
-
Drü 🜃 (@drewexmachina) reportedI thought this film was complete garbage but this is a hill I'd gladly die on. Wish she'd gotten her own film and got rid of the terrible goofy Geoff Johns'y comedy of Shazam 2.
-
Danny Grace (@Dgrace75) reported@liamgallagher We should all down load that one to our phones you think …let me know if need to Shazam that one
-
Jen🌸s ⚢ (@NeXJ9) reported@ughfinewhatever @bree_mck I was gonna say u can’t check shazam history if u don’t have the app, but I held down on the extension and it literally told me the history. Well I’ll be dammed
-
Six (@SixSh00tHer) reported@absolute_verse I swear that’s the only reason they named it that so people thought it would be like the comic, my only issue with a KO fighting game is 32 is a giant roster for a fighting game and there’s only like Shazam and Mxy you could do as DLC from the comic
-
T (@nc_king_) reported@damiebi10 Every sequel from the dceu was a complete disaster Ww Shazam Aqua man Hell the solos were terrible
-
TBPN (@tbpn) reportedShazam Founder @Inghelbrecht says Shazam should never have existed. To build the company in 2000, the team had to digitize one of the world’s largest music libraries before streaming existed. They had to invent music recognition technology from scratch and physically build the computing infrastructure needed to run it before companies like Google Cloud and AWS were around. They also had to convince mobile carriers to support a product category nobody had ever seen before. Inghelbrecht says even if each of those problems only had a 10% chance of working, the odds of Shazam surviving were practically zero.
-
The Problematic Kevhulk73 🇺🇸🐉💀 (@kevhulk73) reported@tuvya68 @Hollywood_Solo That was even the problem with the modern Shazam movies ..that fans complained because Shazam acted exactly like Billy.
-
Yash solankee (@Yash48902641) reportedthis is currently not supported due to Android/Nothing OS limitations, rather than a Shazam permission issue. It worked on my older Poco C3, so this feels like a step backward.
-
ankle (@ankleknuckle) reported@DIRTBAGCLOWN @EXCELSIORSPEAKS really the titans are the bigger issue imo. unnecessary to have damian as a second robin, and having ALL of starfire, cyborg, raven, and zatanna is indulgent in a roster without like, the flash or shazam or supergirl
-
Ziggy (@ZquadboyZ) reported@dailystarzam Retire Billy, have the Shazam mantel be passed down every couple years, because Billy staying a child ruins any semblance of a timeline. Also Shazam is a cool name
-
~X~ (xgrrrl1) (@jnsqxgrrrl1) reported@RaminNasibov @TheBookofG1nk0 I downloaded Merlin but it will absolutely not work unless you give location permissions which is not cool. I mean it listens through mic AND tracks location. Privacy issue. Someone needs to invent a competitor that makes it optional! Bird Shazam on demand w/ manual loc data
