    @uniquemoviemom Always been my problem with how Shazam is written, he has wisdom of Solomon but at times it seems non existent

    This COSOMA debate made me realize something… A thread 1/ While everyone is arguing about royalty payouts, I’m seeing something different. I’m seeing a system problem. And software problems are meant to be solved. 2/ If artists don’t fully trust how royalties are calculated… If the public doesn’t understand the monitoring system… If people keep asking where the numbers come from… That’s a transparency problem. Transparency is exactly what technology can improve. 3/ Imagine a platform that monitors radio and TV broadcasts in real time. Not guesses. Not spreadsheets passed around. Actual digital monitoring with an auditable trail. 4/ Imagine every song played being automatically detected using audio fingerprinting—similar to how Shazam recognizes music. Every play gets recorded. Every record has a timestamp. Every calculation can be traced. 5/ Now imagine every artist having their own dashboard. “My song played 287 times this month.” “These are the stations.” “These are the broadcasts.” “This is exactly how my royalty was calculated.” No mystery. Just data. 6/ The platform could also allow broadcasters to upload playlists digitally instead of relying only on manual submissions. Everything becomes faster. Everything becomes easier to audit. Everything becomes more transparent. 7/ And why stop there? Churches… Event organizers… Festivals… DJs… Could also submit licensed digital setlists. The more legitimate usage we capture, the fairer the royalty system becomes. 8/ This isn’t just a COSOMA solution. It’s a solution for every collective management organization across Africa that struggles with monitoring, reporting and royalty distribution. That’s a regional software market. 9/ This is the type of software Malawi can build. We don’t always have to import technology. Sometimes we should build the infrastructure ourselves. 10/ That’s why I’m putting this idea out there. I’m looking for partners who believe Malawi can build world-class technology. Investors. Government. COSOMA. Broadcasters. Let’s build it together. 11/ Imagine Malawi becoming the country that develops one of Africa’s most transparent copyright royalty systems. Not because we complained. Because we built the solution. 12/ Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from asking, Why is the system like this? They come from asking, What if I built something better?

    @cameron101298 @absolutelyaura0 i feel like the biggest flaw with the king shazam arc is that it was so small and comming off the tale end of the massive son of the demon arc it just feels underwhelming. this break neck pace problem is gonna hurt the absolute books. Superman especially was best taken slow

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

    @BrownBastard90 @sonyabladesbf Comics & games & DCTV was doing fine at the time. Most DCEU movies post-Aquaman 1 were doing terrible and that’s on BVS? What about Shazam or Birds of Prey?

    @parkerslawyer I won’t deny Diana is in need of content, but this is a terrible argument to make when Booster Gold has nothing to his name compared to Diana carrying a previous universe with Aquaman and Shazam, pretending Superman doesn’t exist outside of false promises with cameos.

    @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

    @wakeupusa Oh Geez, not another new word. Besides a cheek swab, just pull your pants down and see what you were born with. Shazam you are a female and or shazam you are a male. No one's taking their rights to identify how they want, but you can't negate biological reality.

    @bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The real issue was everyone underestimating what he could become and how much power he actually carried. They judged the kid instead of understanding the hero.

    @bekeestitches The problem wasn’t Shazam… it was forcing a pure joy character into a universe that only wanted grimdark and corporate synergy.

    They think banishing me to the stars will save them. Let Superman build back his broken moon. I am King Shazam, and my fury will return to claim what is mine.

    Black 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.

    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?

    @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.

    My bff said we should watch Logan together. That would be really fun. I would down to watch it together with him when we’re able to. First we’re gonna watch Shazam 2 together then Logan, then the Spider-verse movies when it’s closer to the third movie’s release date.

    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.

    SUPERGIRL is tracking around $125 million worldwide, below BLUE BEETLE, SHAZAM! FURY OF THE GODS, and 2015’s FANTASTIC FOUR. Audiences clearly rejected it. Which is odd, because it’s not bad. Milly Alcock works, it moves fast, and it’s a decent watch. So what went wrong? The release date hurt, sandwiched between TOY STORY 5 and MINIONS & MONSTERS, but that’s not the whole story. SUPERMAN was huge last year, and her cameo landed fine, yet it didn’t translate into interest. The real issue: people had no reason to care. Maybe MAN OF TOMORROW should’ve come first, build her alongside Superman before a solo film. Instead, DC gave her one cameo and hoped that was enough. It wasn’t. This might be what superhero fatigue actually is, not the genre, but characters audiences were never given a reason to invest in.

    Before Spotify and Shazam became a thing, I used to watch the credits of movies all the way down till the last minute just so I could see the title of songs they used. Good times. 😌

    @NadrGo2 @BistThunder @drewmacwwe23 *Justice League* was not profitable; it was a financial loss. However, the studio pressed on because other films were highly profitable—*Shazam!* is a prime example: while its gross revenue appeared low, its profit margin was acceptable. Unfortunately, management issues arose,

    @TheFilmJunkee I think the problem with the whole Shazam Black Adam stuff was it all felt so disconnected. Had they planned an actual story that would have led to the pair eventuallly battling & have Superman involved too would likely have worked much better

    @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

    85% of Google Pixel owners use their phone for the same 5 things every Android phone does. Calls. Texts. Camera. Chrome. Gmail. That's a phone with 15+ exclusive features features Samsung doesn't have, features iPhone doesn't have, features no other Android phone on earth can run being used like a $200 budget phone. Your Pixel answers spam calls for you before you pick up. It identifies every song playing around you on your lock screen, without Shazam, without internet. It erases people from photos. It swaps faces in group shots. It holds your place in customer service queues so you don't have to. Google buried these features behind menus, toggles, and settings nobody opens after setup day. A Pixel product reviewer who's tested 30+ smartphones in 2026 told me: "Pixel isn't the fastest phone. It isn't the most powerful. But it has more genuinely useful exclusive software features than any phone I've tested iPhone included. The problem is Google markets the hardware and forgets to tell anyone about the software." Here are 11 Pixel-exclusive features most owners have never turned on 🧵
