RickSeal (@Justrelaxabitt) reported@donovanmartin5 At this point I dont believe snyder will be back. Sure I preferred his style and tone. But that doesnt mean i can pretend this DCU stuff is interesting. Superman was entertaining but it still felt very cookie cutter and safe to appease all the old complaints. All these suit designs are just awful too. Supergirls box office is also telling that the dcus problems are abit more larger than a vocal minority. I dont know what the answer is for DC but I do know judging by everything since Birds of prey, shazam 2, ww84 that they need to ditch the action comedy feel good "family" stuff. Avatar is a great example of what the tone should be. Families watch avatar. They dont need to make everything "light hearted" for a family to watch it.

will you marry me cinderelly (@agapanthuslily) reportedold navy’s indie selection has genuinely been integral to my musical identity for most of my life like there was nothing like trying to write down lyrics in the fitting room so i could search them up later because i didn’t have shazam
-
Keizi Cinema 🎞️🍿 (@KeiziTV) reported@ButcherBoi67 As good as a Shazam sequel looked. I was excited for it, coming out of some rough times and it looked like fun. Nothing groundbreaking but the film ended up having a lot more issues after viewing ofc.

Jay Paul (@JayPaul1530) reported@sonyabladesbf Instead the of making terrible films like Shazam 2, Aquaman 2, Black Adam, etc.

Tom Alder (@tomaldertweets) reported2002. You're in a cafe and a song you don't know is playing. There's no iPhone. No App Store. Both are 5 years away. So you pull out your Nokia and dial 4 digits: 2580. You hold the phone toward the speaker. 30 seconds later, the call hangs up on its own. Then a text arrives: song title, artist name. That was Shazam's initial product. They picked 2580 because the digits run straight down the middle of the keypad. The wrapper was a phone call and an SMS. The audio fingerprinting behind that text is the same core tech that powers the app today. So when the iPhone arrived in 2007 and the App Store in 2008, Shazam was ready on day 1, with 6 years of data and a proven product. 16 years later, Apple bought them for a reported $400m.

𝓻𝓲𝓻𝓲 ✧🦋 (@jnkcullt) reportedGuys Shazam is not working for me like it doesn't even recognise any songs.. it's keep saying try again but it's not working
-
Giovanetta Marangoz 🌹 天下大乱形势大好 (@giovanettanyc) reported@meeksthoughtbub The music down here is pretty fire I'm trying to Shazam it
-
Fatster (@DarrellKaram) reported@DCUAlert Batman. He would be a terrible casting choice for Shazam and Zachary Levi is already killing it as Shazam
-
Blackboy (@blackboyrizzy) reported@bekeestitches Shazam catching strays when he wasn’t even the problem 😭 Somebody owes bro an apology.
-
Yolophonik (@Yolophonik) reportedShazam letting me down yet again. Nice.
-
Meimei🍦🍧 (@Billy_batshed) reported@the_xueyutanhua We should all agree that that Shazam run never existed, never happened, was never written. Not only did it do absolute **** for jon and Damian, but also it's main characters throughout every issue 😭
-
Why You Yelling (@Whyyouyelling1) reported@WongUpdates That was cool as ****. I'll never forgive the internet for gaslighting us into thinking Black Adam was a terrible movie cause the Rock didn't want to interact with those mid *** Shazam movies
-
Karma (@Pac_Triton) reported@Paapi_Billota just admit that the last 6 movies in that universe were utter **** from Shazam to the Flash. they were so bad, they had to shut down the universe, and your boy was still grieving over his daughter killing herself.
-
meanlene (@Chalene1450) reported@ClownWorld Most of the service dogs aren’t really necessary. People get the paperwork signed and Shazam! Now you can bring a dog everywhere. It’s crazy. Either they are all allowed or not. It takes away from those that truly have a service dog and need one.
-
Richy (@RichyWarbucks) reported@_JTheChef I Shazam that **** so mfs ain’t gotta turn the music down
-
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.
-
Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported@ClassicKun93 Please, stop larping as someone with intelligence. MAWS season 3 was terrible- the show should be done. Snyder’s universe wasn’t great nor Shazam nor Black Adam nor, Supergirl- although, it had moments. You may go, ClassicBaka.
-
The8lkNurembergfacts (@The8lkNuremberg) reported@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.
-
Marco Almeida (@MarcoAlmeidaPT) reportedCar 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?
-
M.G. Siegler (@mgsiegler) reportedInsta-reaction: it’s fine but the old one was iconic. The new ‘r’ is clearly an issue. At first glance looks like “Ins tag zam” sort of “Shazam”-y.
-
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.
-
DD (@DComicTalks) reported@LifeMi1987 @Arthur65381575 We also already had the Batman that character had already been rebooted the issue was recasting Wonder Woman while she still had a big role in Shazam 2 and a role in flash
-
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
-
BANG CHAN 방찬 GLOBAL 🍋🩵 (@BangChanGlobal) reported📣 | UPDATE: After numerous templates and emails since 2025, it seems as though Bang Chan’s Spotify profile has now been fixed, with the fake songs removed. HOWEVER! Issues still persist across YouTube/YouTube Music, Apple Music, Shazam, Amazon Music, Tidal and Deezer. We will provide an updated template once we have finished reviewing each platform in depth.
-
I.J KLMNOP (@MoPride_) reportedSometimes, I wonder if Shazam has ear problems.
-
Hank: The Pleasant Pesant (@PesantHank) reportedBlack Adam is a terrible movie that condenses and warps Adam's character to skip to him being an anti-hero, jams a quarter of the JSA in there for some reason, excludes Shazam, and has the Rock but I liked the costumes.
-
Wolf Totem 🐺 (@CanisLupus003) reportedIt's labelled simply as Adagio so I tried Shazam but drew a blank. So I did the good old searching and going down rabbit holes. It is the 2nd movement of Beethoven's Piano concerto No 5.

Pipis🪩🕺🏻💋 (@NIALLownsmeee) reported@inthehalwayrry i was in the nosebleeds in amsterdam and everybody was sitting down and didn’t even sing for most of the time😭even saw someone use shazam

GMVC🏴 (@_GMVC) reported@jaycubedd Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam all were good imo, the rest was terrible man
