  @Phenomm_ This movie could be really good, but that's still not gonna fix the many issues that DC has and the DCU as a whole. The fact that Clayface is getting a movie before Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Shazam, and other A-list heroes is a ****** crime

  @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 😭

  @jaycubedd Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam all were good imo, the rest was terrible man

  @Black_D_Gamer1 If we applied their logic, shouldn’t Shueisha or the respective authors of the earlier titles (Dragon Ball, JJK, Chainsaw Man, MHA) have issues with the later ones (Toriko, SBtMWY, Call of the Night) because of their very similar designs? But as far as I know, they’re not doing that, right? From what I’ve learned through Googling and from Grok, companies tend to go after designs that clearly infringe their trademarks rather than ones that are merely inspired by them. This applies to both U.S. and Japanese companies. The only case with enough evidence to successfully sue and win was DC v. Fawcett, regarding the similarity between Superman and Captain Marvel (later renamed Shazam after DC acquired the character). It wasn’t just the design; Fawcett’s team had deliberately studied other aspects of Superman (personality, characterization, etc.) to create their own version of “Superman,” only under a different name.

  @CarpetInTheRoom @BaramosGonus […] after he was fired from the Justice League production for the tragedy that even rocks now today, the “genius” executive from Warner Bros decided to step down from that story, and starting with Shazam decided to make random movies with no connections and storyline[…]

  @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

  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?

  @restoreZSJL It’s quite unfortunate that they were shut down Shazam and black Adam gone 😭

  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 🧵

  @TeaRoseKent If, on the other hand... Once had to take a 25 pg brief down to 15 pgs in time to file, with only a couple of hours and without changing any legal arguments. Took out all the transitional phrases. Shazam!

  @Gazungamer Honestly the biggest problem with the later output of the dceu. Stuff like Shazam and TSS would’ve done wonders 5 years earlier

  I thought this film was complete garbage but this is a hill I'd gladly die on. Wish she'd gotten her own film and got rid of the terrible goofy Geoff Johns'y comedy of Shazam 2.

  @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

  @axel12381403 @FandomWasp I think this was miles better than the shazam issue though this was actually meaningful to Jon's character and was never meant to be a supersons thing, plus its in Txyz character to mock Jon with the aging up comment, he's trying to ruin Jon so he never gets defeated eventually

  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.

  @bekeestitches Everyone kept treating Shazam like the threat, when the real problem was the people manipulating the situation behind the scenes. 😭 The guy was fighting the wrong battle from the start. 💀

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

  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.

  @rdhoodsgf as a homeless ten year old billy batson was deemed worthy by the wizard shazam to wield his power (wisdom of solomon, strength of hercules, stamina of atlas, power of zeus, courage of achilles, speed of mercury) by saying the wizards name he would call down a bolt of lightning-

  @RoyalMaj3sty I’m a Seven guy, so I’d have to swap Robin and Shazam with Aquaman and Martian Manhunter. I don’t have a problem with Nightwing’s placement. I don’t think you can have Batman over Superman though . . .

  Recovery Simp (@recovery_simp) reported 46 minutes ago

  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?

  @zhang_digiden One could hope, i mean, considering to where we were before (#that Shazam Issue was last year i recall?) Their storyline is actually improving. seems like someone in the writting room aknowledges trying to break their bond is equivalent to burn money.

  @xstinamendez Am I going crazy or is that Mall Grab tune pitched down or something? I thought it was a remix but Shazam picked it up as the original.
