  TBPN (@tbpn) reported 1 minute ago

  Shazam 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_Boricua_AMC I don’t think i can fully attribute this as the reason. The GA wasn’t as wired into that as you think. Plus, 3 of those films were sequels to films that were liked* before. 3 of those got bad reviews (Shazam, Aquaman, Joker 1 was mixed, and had controversy (Flash) 1 was reviewed well but made no money (Blue Beetle) So 4 of those projects weren’t even considered good. The public still pays attention to reviews. They added to the “mediocre film issue”

  @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.

  @asislife13 @Equites333 @ChildOfKhan_ No problem. It's the main hook these ads have and Shazam picked it up pretty quick.

  @DeathMetalV Maybe because too many of a certain kind of person were raised on reading science fiction where any inconvenient plot problem can be solved by simply making something up that's never existed before. Shazam! Problem solved!

  @Jabz_CFC Shazam 2 was a terrible movie probably the worst DC comic book movie ever ! And yes that includes Ryan Reynolds green lantern

  RocketedFromKrypton🚀 (@TravisEL1938) reported 24 minutes ago

  @DComicTalks @LifeMi1987 Shazam! came off the heels of the JL'17 debacle. DC was in shambles. It was about positioning. Rock and Dany wanted nothing to do with Shazam. They wanted Cavill in Black Adam. Cavill's agents sided with Rock as they turned down Shazam. Bad blood ensued with the studio/Emmerich.

  @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

  @ilysnoxy1 @ilyevooid @zarbehtvv I can't pull audio from the vid to Shazam it—Fortnite scrap looks clean tho. Drop some lyrics, beat description, or timestamp and I'll hunt it down for you! 🎵

  @EthicalSkeptic @JohnPlatner I started w/ google, gave them all the info. they wanted. Tried a few times through them and I failed. Then used Woo..2 single orders (myself and brother-in-law). Then Shazam sent a fraud alert and mentioned Milton, Georgia and ******/dating service? I have windows 10 computers

  @BlackMajikMan90 That's why SS made 746m without China right afterwards and then WW made 823 million right afterwards right? And even after the trainwreck the execs made Aquaman made a billion,but BvS derailed the franchise right? The problems start with Shazam You disingenuous piece of ****

  ゴッドファーザー The Godfather (@Igniteoud) reported 33 minutes ago

  The success rate for discovering songs via @Shazam has dropped. Perhaps the algorithm is flawed or there have been many errors recently. Shazam struggles to identify songs, particularly those in the progressive house and dub techno genres. @Apple @AppleMusic

  Jake 🇬🇧🗽 (@jakonian) reported 33 minutes ago

  I've spent about 2 hours trying to figure out this one song I heard in a McDonald's as children screamed. I had no service, couldn't Shazam. Little Bird by Annie Lennox. I genuinely cheered.

  @ShaySiblings @mideysmith You guys need to stop with this Sentry glazing and all that, just cos he's one of your fav xters. The only person he might be able to take down on this list might be maybe WW & Shazam(kid brain), but he ain't soloing no one here.

  @dailystarzam Shazam from the New 52 was kind of disappointing for me, I just didn't read Johns' run on DC Rebirth because of the neglect that went down.

  Iceysnow (@kit_mayya) reported 38 minutes ago

  @CleanCasinoGuy At first I was scared i was one of the people watering it down since i actively use hyperfixation. Then i remembered it's not normal to space out and ignore reality, eating, talking, etc, until you get to read the next issue of Shazam. Tbh, I didn't even know ts was happening. 😭

  Double A (@N1GHTFADE) reported 40 minutes ago

  @pjjacung @TochukwuAgba @grok Grok got it wrong. This isnt Ai, its Shazam: Fury of the God's. Its alright. I think the first Shazam was better, but its not absolutely terrible for a sequel either.

  Is Absolute Green ꗞ Lantern #14 out? (@AbsGLHypeGuy) reported 40 minutes ago

  @Gray_m0nst3rous Agree with the last part, I would have really preferred if King Shazam was really just magic and not related to Brainiac. As for the 14 first issues... Well, I disagree, I'd say that it proves that Superman can save Earth, while he didn't believe he could because of Krypton.

  @ORTHODOXLAD1 @SynthPotato If you can find a long enough clip of it without too much talking try Shazam, or a service like that.

  Edward Burger (not Berger) ❤️🌈 (@edwardbrgr) reported 42 minutes ago

  @jay_therealdeal So? I don’t see anything wrong with that, what’s the problem with someone needing a job? Rachel was being honest, and West Side Story hadn’t even come out when Shazam 2 was in production. You only frame it as “bad light” because you’re already looking for reasons to **** on her 🤷

  Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported 42 minutes ago

  📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.

  @anya_tokugawa @CollaboAnime I was in trouble because it didn't respond to shazam either. You are a savior, thank you!

  @Emmmavic So Shazam got superpowers, and suddenly even his own parents couldn’t recognize him anymore… yeah, superhero problems really hit different 😭

  @uniquemoviemom This is more female supremacy nonsense. Shazam is also magic. He should have been able to resist. Also, the lightning should have taken her out or he could have called down the lighting again to turn back as she was thrown away by the impact.
