Shazam Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mjford17 MJFord17 (@mjford17) reported

    @DahiyaKnight Didn’t he turn down being in Shazam so that he could just do Black Adam. Rather than Shazam 2 being Shazam vs Black Adam and then do a Shazam v. Black Adam v. Superman he wanted a solo movie. Rock basically ended the dCEu

  • TheRaw420 LucKy III's Dude Ranch Outlaws ™ ➡️ (@TheRaw420) reported

    @Habetman Sounds familiar. I was suspended for saying: 'A man retards his timing chain on his 1956 Dodge pick up truck.' ...and Shazam, Wham -O, Kapow ! Down for 7 days. 🤠🎸

  • Nathan_W_S Nathan Schmidt🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@Nathan_W_S) reported

    @osgamer74 Yeah, Juggernaut would literally walk all over Superman. Wonder Woman and Shazam would give Juggernaut trouble, but not Supes, or Flash, or any Green Lantern. And don’t get me started on the Chaos the Scarlet Witch would release on the DCverse.

  • MikeHal10690392 Mike Hall (@MikeHal10690392) reported

    @__Keeton @Tha_ReStLeSs_1 @EricWaffles A Shazam villain, wearing the Shazam logo but who never meets the Big Red Cheese. Someone should have sat the Rock down and explained facts.

  • MarcusRaynak Miami Vice 1986 (@MarcusRaynak) reported

    @the_real_seba What was WB’s problem with Henry? Rumor was it all started with him turning down the Shazam ending cameo?

  • CoHPhasor SPOTTY (@CoHPhasor) reported

    @wasphyxiation Because Cavilp Superman and Affleck Batman are terrible. Also, it costs to pay them, and they were in multiple JL/other movies. Shazam, etc were comparatively cheaper and different endeavors.

  • JohnRyanParman ThatOneHotaClothoShipper (@JohnRyanParman) reported

    @Tha_ReStLeSs_1 @EricWaffles that only works if you also had Shazam in the mix. making a Black Adam movie without involving Shazam is stupid. it doesnt even make sense that Waller was able to convince MoS Superman into intervening in Khandaq, not when the issue has already been resolved by BA.

  • BigE_93 Elliot (@BigE_93) reported

    @_Fallonious_ Brainiac and Shazam I’m down for as well. Idk about reverse flash or aquaman tho

  • warsawconcerto 🌞 (@warsawconcerto) reported

    @mairinriybe i wanted to shazam but my laptop's speaker is broken and i'm using earphone 🥲

  • Hblbae Bae (@Hblbae) reported

    There was this HO in my bus today. He asked me what the name of the song I was playing was and I said it was from a video. He said I should give him my number so I can send the video to him. He could have just used Shazam😭. I didn’t notice his face until I came down at my stop🤭

  • OrangeHux Hux ✨ (@OrangeHux) reported

    @b_lushajj Don’t give up it’s what they want us to do. Let’s mass report @Shazam please fix this issue

  • drivinginkorea North Korean Mini Driver (@drivinginkorea) reported

    @ProtonDrive It's also terrible. The only thing I used to use Google Assistant for was to shazam a sign without needing that app. Gemini can't do it. That's literally all I used it for

  • joanfromboston Joan from Boston (@joanfromboston) reported

    @hillbillythings I think people who lie like this have serious mental problems and are not wired like the rest of us. They never think they're gonna get caught and if they do, they'll lie their way out of it. Until...SHAZAM!!!!

  • Hammermor GalanDun (@Hammermor) reported

    @HylianRailgun @BatfleckMovie Shazam is arguable, there are issues with it in terms of continuity and it's a double as Superman.

  • DukeSpectacular Spectacular (@DukeSpectacular) reported

    @OldWorldHermit I'm so used to people not sharing the sauce I got up, found my phone, used Shazam to find the name, put phone away, sat down, scrolled down then immediately discovered you linked directly to the song in the first comment. Bah! I don't know if I'm appreciative, or annoyed.

    @_DOGPOOL_ I Love the one with the white stripe down his nose—like Shazam 👏🏻

  • Amari82794099 Amari (@Amari82794099) reported

    @JackyWackyDA I wouldn’t be opposed to Alan but he’d have to look very different from himself as Bruce. I’m gonna seem crazy for this take but he’s too damn big, so unless he leaned down a bit, I don’t want a Batman that’s like 2x buffer than Superman. Alan is more like Shazam or Aquaman

  • Zone6Immigrant Nas EBK (@Zone6Immigrant) reported

    @GokuSeverious @djodjeee_ Mind you, there was zero reason to get rid of the cast. Give MoS 2 to a better director, the Batman movie etc. but instead they went with Shazam and BoP. This is not a Snyder issue. WB is hugely incompetent. They were going to give Dwayne Johnson control.

  • Coty_SJ2 CotySJ2 🌻🍉 - GO SEE A MOVIE *****! (@Coty_SJ2) reported

    @GunnerDobbins It’s a slight down turn from MOS (a movie I personally love) but it’s a big move upward after Aquaman 2, Shazam 2, The Flash, Black Adam, and (regrettably) Blue Beetle

  • RPGlover Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported

    @d_eorzea @J0hnADouglas Accurate but incomplete. Bendis was enabled by an incompetent editorial structure that persists to this day at DC. Look at Shazam issue 20 or Secret Six (or, Jon Kent as an intern…) and the deficiencies are glaring.

  • Uhchire_Wolf Bearwolf13 (@Uhchire_Wolf) reported

    @MarketingBeatz Go watch the Captain Marvel aka Shazam and then read the issue of Shazam that came out in the New 52... It's basically the SAME story, I'm not saying anything wasn't changed but the Snyderverse pulled heavily from the New 52...

  • CollinsPet54490 TᕼE 1ᑎE (@CollinsPet54490) reported

    @MarioPromotar No it's not , try to ask Google or Chatgpt.. that's an error made with you're Shazam .. temukisusa , Wrong places Is a good song but not upto that much more

  • DustyyyDevil ⭐️ dustyyy ⭐️ (@DustyyyDevil) reported

    @RealTruggler superman: look up supergirl: look out batman: look around wonder woman: look within swamp thing: look away green lantern: look ahead flash: look sharp zatanna: look closely shazam: look alive martian manhunter: look back aquaman: look down(?) clayface: look at me

  • Swungsinger499 Swungsinger (@Swungsinger499) reported

    @Signs2323 I don’t see the issue you just put Shazam next it cause they’re drinking from a straw, what’s the issue??

  • rvaldebenito72 Rodrigo Valdebenito (@rvaldebenito72) reported

    @crysisshadow71 @djodjeee_ The problem is not just Snyder. They had some successful movies (WW, Aquaman, Shazam) but the brand was too damaged and whatever they showcased later was a disaster except Reeves' Batman. They needed to recover image and Gunn is doing that.

  • deeceelife deeceelife (@deeceelife) reported

    @MeganFan06 @DCU_Updates Yes, all awful. The Red Guardian in the comics isn’t a bumbling buffoon. Shazam at least is suppose to be a kid but CM & Billy have 2 different temperaments. Missing the point. Humor Thor L&T style is the problem. I don’t dour Supes either just not during a genuine moment.

  • MrKrisMcD Just Kris. 🚹 (@MrKrisMcD) reported

    Superman isn't a bad film, it's just a bit of a mess tonally. Be Shazam if you want, but stop switching it off and on. Too many characters, the dog is annoying, and the cameo is terrible.

  • Ispotapedo Yaboyjackiechan (@Ispotapedo) reported

    @harleking55 @RSLLRSL @jayjjalen Tbf Blue Beetle is a lot less detached to the DCEU, you can reasonably say the whole movie takes place in the DCU and have no issues while Black Adam connects heavily to Shazam and has Henry Cavill return in its ending

  • St4novoy Stan 🇵🇹🇮🇪 (@St4novoy) reported

    The problem with casting for Shazam is that you also have to cast a 10 year old that won't age out of the role
