    @Phenomm_ This movie could be really good, but that's still not gonna fix the many issues that DC has and the DCU as a whole. The fact that Clayface is getting a movie before Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Shazam, and other A-list heroes is a ****** crime

    Car stereo playing a song on the radio. iPhone connected via CarPlay. Opening Shazam or Apple’s own “recognize music” tool immediately shuts down the radio. I know taking over the car stereo audio when the microphone is activated is the standard behavior, but it’s kind of stupid in this scenario, right?

    @StebobM @StevenKentSV My issues I feel like the rock made it too, overly complicated about not just letting black Adam be a villain, who then has an arc to be more anti-hero wish with his past storyline, and then I feel like him also fighting against not wanting to be connected to Shazam hurt

    @junglekxng3 @ReconNarwhal He's always had a huge ego, it was just at an all time high at the time (and even now) he really believed a Shazam villain could fix an already broken universe

    @GunntArchive dc movies are doomed because they never learn; the fandom is fractured and they know this but instead of fixing this; they just double down on hating on zack snyder to convince you to support new dc movies it didnt work for black adam, shazam or blue beetle; theyre all idiots

    @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

    @CTPhipps1980 Well they did. They renamed him to Shazam a while back to avoid problems with Marvel I think.

    @btskthv1230 @StanTae51027 Exactly! They want to drive true supporters away. We must ignore these insecure people who don’t respect or appreciate the enormous clout Taehyung brings to BTS. His brand ambassadorships have been heavily involved in promoting the group’s Arirang tour. His solo endeavors, like his first pitch at the LA Dodgers game, got the forthcoming BTS comeback mentioned to the whole world of baseball. His Chinese fanbase, Baidu V Bar was historically the largest purchaser of BTS albums. They metaphorically shoot themselves in the foot by trying to silence us into leaving. This desire to equalize the members by their own insistence is tiresome. It’s unnecessary. The members themselves said on multiple occasions in the past that Taehyung is the one with worldwide impact. It’s a known fact, yet no one needs to take him down a peg because Tae is humble. Instead, they attack his support system, the ones who stream, vote, Shazam, buy physical albums, iTunes, magazines, merch from his brands, engage with his articles, make radio requests, praise his accomplishments…and they want us to believe Tae hates us. Are they hoping we are so immature that we’ll go away crying? No one who works this hard has time for their nonsense.

    @AmazingPopPod Unwanted and unnecessary. He should’ve been the villain of Shazam 2. Instead it’s just another guy with similar powers to Superman. How many times did they end up doing that? I mean there’s so many problems with the concept of this movie I really don’t know what else to say.

    I 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.

    Played a song and asked my roommate to guess who the artist is. Guy cheekily pulls his phone out to make it seem like he’s texting someone and i saw his hand move from the top of the screen to shazam it. Puts down his phone a few secs later of fake brainstorming he gets it right

  • DarrellKaram

    @DCUAlert Batman. He would be a terrible casting choice for Shazam and Zachary Levi is already killing it as Shazam

    @JovanHoward13 Crazy thing though for DC (and any superhero franchise for that matter), anyone can be casted for whatever role. I love The Rock, but he forgot he doesn't own that character like that. If they fix Shazam down the line, then so be it. I'll probs be in my 70s by then lol

    The Shazam issue has been fixed but we won't be able to reach our goal I really hope this doesn't happen again especially since there are covers of the other leaked songs as well

    @SavvyRinu No mind them, they are just tensioning people up and down, my own is the song playing at the background. I just had to shazam it now and findout the title... Straight to download it.. Johnny Drille - Stars Align

    @Gazungamer Honestly the biggest problem with the later output of the dceu. Stuff like Shazam and TSS would’ve done wonders 5 years earlier

    @Ayeloja0 You people will just sit down and hype rubbish Seyi dey pack quantity over quality, that’s why his songs don’t have replay value why do you think people still dey go back and vibe to all Asake old albums till today? Who still dey remember Shazam or Instagram today lol

    @DierkingJakob @Blaaaair96 @BlackMajikMan90 It may not have met expectations but it was still a financial success. It clearly also didn't damaged DC's reputation since SS, WW, Aquaman, and Shazam all were box office hits. You cant keep blaming BvS for the problems DC had long after it came out.

    distrokid 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

    @TheRochaSays What’s even more baffling is that Wonder Woman, Joker, Aquaman, and to some extent Shazam were all box office successes followed up with the most terrible inconsequential sequels you could imagine.

    realistically who or what are we blaming for dcs problems right now? why has supergirl underperformed as bad as blue beetle, shazam 2 and the flash? because this needs addressing

    @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.

    4. Visual Intelligence point at anything, know everything. Press and hold the Camera Control button. Point your camera at anything. A plant: species identification and care instructions. A restaurant: reviews, hours, and menu. A sign in another language: instant translation. A product: price comparison and purchase links. A dog: breed identification. A building: historical information and architecture details. A math equation: solved. A business card: contact saved automatically. A food dish: calorie and nutrition estimate. This is Google Lens + ChatGPT + Shazam in one gesture. Built into the camera. No app needed. No typing. It also works on photos already in your Camera Roll. Open a screenshot. Activate Visual Intelligence. It reads and responds to whatever's in the image. Most owners have never held the Camera Control button for 2 seconds. The entire AI visual engine sits behind a long press nobody tries.

    @magmortality @MyNameIsWepeeI I have a really bad auditory processing problem and unironically just figured out today that a song I’ve been enjoying when I hear it come on is not, in fact, in English. I only figured it out because I finally thought to Shazam the song because I couldn’t remember enough words to Google it myself. I was like “wait what there’s zero English” So basically I do this to the highest degree with any song in any language :)

    @damiebi10 JLA flopped, Shazam flopped both of them, Blue beetle flopped, wonder woman '84 flopped, flash definitely flopped despite cameos from JLA members, and Aquaman 2, flopped, yeah you guys never talk about the terrible second half you had.
