    @Exalted_Speed This is like how Shazam had a sequel 5 years after the original. Billy always had a ticking clock, especially when going with a teenage take. And the ages for all the YA actors were a little all over the place, which is a more of problem there than for the Avenegers

    @KurtSchlichter I never heard anything by them that was worthy of my attention I guess because I'm not a preteen. But having said that I was watching something—it was either a movie or TV series I can't remember—but this song came on that intrigued me and I hit Shazam and turns out that it was by someone who was in the monkeys but I don't know how it was released. Anyway I think it was called "I'm going down". it was definitely unlike anything I'd heard by them, although I may have heard a total of three or four songs I'm guessing, but this guy had some serious vocal chops. You know who I'm talking about?

    @OtunbaSebotimo @The_Big_Chifa_ One of the biggest issue was that Billy as a kid was too mature well composed and kinda mopey most times and when he becomes Shazam he acts like a complete child.

    Remember the first time CNN and its anchors were used in a movie. Its was Contact. Then Batman v Superman and Wolf in SkyFall and MI and Shazam. But now they pop up in 3 Body Problem and its just pathetic. Can we go back to fake networks and not cheer or moan because its CNN

    @tiktok_us how about you make it so we can hold down somewhere on the video to find what song is playing. Use @Shazam. All I ask is one payment of 100k

    @TaroPh59854 @MadonnaUltimate That sounds dramatic, but it does not really hold up from a music industry standpoint. Nobody needs an organized scheme to make a record underperform. The market does that all by itself. Streaming, radio callout, playlist retention, repeat listening, TikTok traction, Shazam activity, sales stability, and week-two drops tell the story. If a song connects, it holds. If it does not, no amount of “they are trying to erase her legacy” explains the public not coming back to the track. Madonna’s legacy is not being erased. Her legacy is already written. The issue is that some fans confuse legacy with current demand. She can be the Queen of Pop historically and still have a single that does not perform like a major hit in 2026. Those two things can exist at the same time. And honestly, blaming invisible “people hungry for the Queen title” feels like a distraction from the actual rollout. If the song had smashed, nobody would be talking about conspiracies. They would be posting chart receipts. But when you have label investment, Sabrina Carpenter attached, Coachella-adjacent hype, The Abbey, Grindr promo, listening parties, and still the numbers do not match the noise, that is not a takedown campaign. That is a rollout failing to convert attention into consumption. The music business is not sentimental. It does not care how iconic you are. It cares whether people stream the song again tomorrow. Madonna is not being erased. She is being measured. And that is what some fans cannot handle.

    Here we have Gretchen Whitmer (aka SHAZAM) with an important public service notice about an issue that is not an issue. What a joke.

    @maxvayshia Black Adam and Thor will seriously wear him down. Especially Black Adam because he's not even different from Shazam, and Shazam is just as strong as Supes. Hancock too tbh. That n!gga built different fr. The rest are insects.

    @The4thTurtleNyC Aquaman was an aberration despite what Snyder did to the DCEU. It excelled and became a blockbuster. Then the Snyder influence reared its ugly head and took down Shazam. A movie with Wonder Woman like critical and audience reviews and grossed less than a 1/3 of what Aquaman did.

    @Abimbola_Fenwa Let Down is very sad, lol. I like Creep, No Surprises and Plastic trees and maybe Karma police. You dig Foxy Shazam too?

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

  • superladkid
    superladkid (@superladkid) reported

    @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.

    When you look at this DC movies run from Man of Steel to #Supergirl (removing the TV shows here), this is a monumentally terrible run. At some point, it's WB that's the issue here. WW, Shazam (maybe), Joker, The Batman and Superman are the only qualified successes artistically and financially. Aquaman made a billion, but it's a **** of a movie. I love Man of Steel and it turned a tidy profit, but it didn't blow up the box office. Everything else is mostly a crash and burn, a slight disappointment or a moderate success. This is a Jets or Browns team going 5-12 for the NFL season. YIKES!

    @h0uselife Shut your dumb *** up Shazam one was better than Shazam two and he’s a ****** actor for doing what he did why he is going down the path that he’s going down with his career had his stupid *** put his ego & pride to the side something great could have come out of that.

    @AxelTalksFilm With how he made it seem like he was such a ********* Adam fan it’s sad how it turned out. He shoulda had the accent down with the hair and ears, that woulda been an acting job he would get praise for bc the dialect. Also not wanting to be against Shazam too…

  • NotFlerken

    @DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.

    Had negligible involvement with Flash ,AM 2 , Blue Beetle , Shazam 2 all projects green lit before he arrived and mostly shot CC didn’t fail Peacemaker season 2 only had a finale problem Supergirl is the only failure It’s funny you don’t give him credit for Penguin’s success

    @Shazam Fix your app so that when you select Buy on iTunes, it takes you to the song and not the iTunes homepage. Recent app update still does not address this issue.

    @dak_daze @grok Maybe the XE video? I don't know, and Shazam is not working for me right now. Just a thought

    @Dzungie007 They will close down on the condition that South Africans stop buying from them. I don't understand our citizens when they fail to realise that everything starts will them/us. The illegality of foreigners, Shazam shops, stolen funds in gov offices, gov offices not functioning.

    @james88982622 Why wasn’t it allowed in the first place, why didn’t AQUAMAN, Wonder Woman or Shazam didn’t face that specific problem. It’s because his movies are the problem. Even at full creative control director cuts exist for his rebel moon movies.

    littledaisy 🌼 (@hanniedontcare) reported

    I was just thinking about this now.. it was so unfair. we got less time to prepare for nonexistent, super poorly organized Back To Life promotion. practically zero promotion outside twitter, broken links, the song was stolen across streaming platforms, shazam got hijacked, MV + release announce last minutes and BTL hit streaming a month later. we were on our own while other fbs got weeks to prep. we could've done so much more with an early heads up. we could've easily debuted with over 1M streams if jyp wasnt so ****** 😭😭😭

    @UltraBiasedFan But Black Adam was also terrible, like most of their films at the time. Shazam 2, Aquaman 2.

    THE CAPTAIN ⚡️ (@Lightingclap) reported

    @UpbvatReporter “A-an interview?” Shazam stammered nervously as he looked down at the reporter. He laughed, rubbing the back of his neck. “With me? Are you sure? There’s plenty of other heroes around.”

    Reed: Yes, I do. He needed somebody to talk to her and find out what would she say if she was asked about Jeffrey Epstein, and you were the perfect choice. And you went down there and suddenly - Shazam, she’s out.”

    Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported

    @TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”
