    @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.

    @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…

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

    @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.

    @isaacrrr7 no one really had a problem with her before, when she was in shazam, it was their decision making that created this dilemma, you should be mad at disney you should realize the trap they set you in, so you become the scapegoat and distraction, giving them what they want

    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.”

    @YRANACKCALB The huge problem is Shazam is the personality of the both actors. They are really different

    feeling a bit bogged down in the Calculus II content on Math Academy after taking a break for a few months. Making really dumb, silly errors... so I asked Grok to make me a little web app to drill derivatives and integrals. Shazam! in less than a minute! ...except, the question database needs to be super big and varied, and the multiple-choice on a flash card format is dry and boring. So.... while I wait on Gemini to grind JSON for a different project today, I figured out how to get Qwen running on my 3070, piped it into Cline in VSCODE, and have it trying to build me Calculus Hero minigames so I can memorize and do rapid recall without it feeling like paint drying. wish it luck.

    Look I don't know who this fellow is (I assume he's some sort of a bigwig in the beverage industry) but that's a terrible name for this app. If we're gonna rename it let's go with "Shazam!" or "Ka-chow!" ya know, something catchy and fun.

    @JOKAQARMY1 Man, how many bottles of water does Siri consume? Let’s be real here we have had Ai since Shazam and Siri, so why is it not the biggest issue when it’s adapting to everyday life

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

  • tbpn
    TBPN (@tbpn) reported

    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.

    @juicyrosie23 Hulk and Thor have a chance. Thor has canonically beaten Shazam, and Hulk has canonically fought Superman while NOT angry, and Supes admitted it took everything he had to take Hulk down. Stark… a scant possibility if he figures out kryptonite. Cap? Sorry, NO.

    @Jaereku My issue isn't the dialogue or characters, but what is actually happening in the comic can cross the line into the absurd. And not the funny or good kind. Having a Shazam expy that just rapes people is so goofy it takes me out. That's just one example.

    @CCharisma97 In fairness to one of them, Shazam was really bad and didn’t draw money in its franchise. I can partly understand it even as a power move. My only issue is he 100% wanted to beat Superman just to look cool. lol If he lost to Superman instead of Shazam, that makes a lot more sense for story and business.

    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.

  • Igniteoud
    ゴッドファーザー The Godfather (@Igniteoud) reported

    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

  • cryptowolf_ofc
    Crypto Wolf 🐺 (@cryptowolf_ofc) reported

    @the_Bradster007 The problem is that there isn’t nearly enough interest in Shazam, Cyborg, Flash, Aquaman, or Green Lantern compared with all of the Marvel super heroes. This was sadly destined to fail

  • SandyEgoCali
    ☛Sir Fedupalot ☛relentless pogonotropher (@SandyEgoCali) reported

    @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?

    @SpeelingBChamp @CaraAxtell @TheBabylonBee "Miracles" are plot-hole spackle. It literally fixes any logical problems with any story in the bible. It's magic. Magic can do anything, so no matter what problem there might be, shazam! Magic! It's juvenile silliness to me.

    @RandyS0725 @fentyheffa Roy Thomas was going to tie him into the Shazam continuity. I wonder if there are rights issues? Although I know he's appeared in some animated stuff since then.

    📣 | 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.

    @Updates4DC He turned down playing Superman in shazam and didn't want to appear in any studio projects until they basically guaranteed him a superman movie which he never got. Zack Synder left WB Henry Cavil rejected the offer to play superman. Jason Mamoa said he rather be Lobo.
