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.

Matt Jarbo (@mjarbo) reportedSUPERGIRL 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.

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.

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.
-
Javier (@Javier_1814) reportedPopularity wise seems about right. There's some like Batgirl and Supergirl that could go up a step but at the same time I understand why they're on that spot. Same with Shazam I'm 50/50 if he should be there or one step down.

Eat_My_Shorts (@YULITTL) reported@Blu_lulululu @iansmith06 @benardonhard Brother the same people handling the dcu rn have been in DC since 2021 making all those terrible movies like flash, aquaman 2, birds of prey, Shazam 2. James Gunn, Peter Saran, Christina, Andy mushetti. All these people made trash dceu movies before the reboot and stayed after.

Joubin (@Joubinparsapour) reported@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,

jwell (@jwell0007) reported@Shazam @sheisKOLD False accuser trying to bring a fellow man down

222supergamer (@222supergamer) reported@ingricma87 @mjarbo James Gunn wasn't even involved with Shazam or Blue Beetle. They also just weren't movies people were interested in. TSS was a movie during covid that released in both theaters and in HBO so no duh it didn't make money at the box office. Such terrible comparisons. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Zei ☄️ (@ZeiSpaceKaiju) reported@Michael78637393 @Abs0luteN0b0dy @UpdatesCAP4 Not exactly. Miracle man is not Alan moore's character. He reinvent him in his run but the character was an attempt to have a new Shazam by the same creator way back before Alan comes. After Alan Neil Gaiman also wrote a few issues

chavis (@Untamed_Boi) reportedChasing a car down to Shazam the name of a Chris brown song the car is playing is insane

Starlight 🦀 (@crackcroww) reported@haxcicle IVE BEEN TRYING TO SHAZAM IT FOR LIKE FIVE MONTHS i dont know and its not working nooooooooooo 😭
-
Mush - Super Sonic Summer of Scares (@MushHog) reported@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.
-
Six (@SixSh00tHer) reported@absolute_verse I swear that’s the only reason they named it that so people thought it would be like the comic, my only issue with a KO fighting game is 32 is a giant roster for a fighting game and there’s only like Shazam and Mxy you could do as DLC from the comic

Mimicinabox (@Mimicinabox) reported@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.

anne (@softlybuttered) reported@dlfreeak @bbricktalk why should I have to Shazam when they could name her and let people easily find out who she is? i dont got time for that and if theyre a real fan they'd have no problem telling ppl who she is, which would get more ppl to listen to her
-
db00_0 (@BobDole01118706) reported@garaa_arc The fact he refused to work with Shazam was also a huge problem. His ego got in the way.

Hefty 45 gal (@bernasconi_rene) reported@NancyMace When you watch James O Keefe where he wears a Hijab aka head scrap we use to wear them when my uncle who had the convertible took the top down for our hair they wear them to not give a man on the street a ***** and then be dragged into an alley and gang *****, slight difference, but head scarf... And they give their name and birthdate and Shazam they get to vote. Unless we stop this you will see this. How much is real Americans living here paying taxes working each day voted vs illegal votes. When you have open borders and no Save America Act this is what you get. Thune! Thune! Earth to Thune!

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.
-
Dika_Clips 🎬🍿 (@moviesbydika) reported@bekeestitches Yeah the writing was the real issue. Shazam himself was never the problem.
-
The Problematic Kevhulk73 🇺🇸🐉💀 (@kevhulk73) reported@tuvya68 @Hollywood_Solo That was even the problem with the modern Shazam movies ..that fans complained because Shazam acted exactly like Billy.
-
AriezTheDragon (@JoeyDraconis) reported@oluwaseun7g Doom would be a problem in DC. He would beat Dr.Fate easily and then claim the power Shazam. Instantly making him able to defeat superman. Doom would probably top 5 threats in all of DC.
-
@iamLenoBoss (@LENO_BOSS1) reported@bekeestitches Everyone blamed Shazam, when the real problem was the writing and how the character was handled. 😭🔥 The potential was always there.
-
Blake “Axe” Avignon (@bobby_s_axelrod) reported@DosEvil @TheRock Biggest mistake was not playing his ego down and crossing over to Shazam. You’re a villain, lose magnificently and enjoy the work. He turned into a mark for Black Adam.
-
Ads (@Adsnewaccount) reported@B3nd3rISGr3at34 @AxelTalksFilm People were willing to give a chance to these characters back then !Shazam is not a bigger character than Supergirl but still had decent numbers !The problem is now people just won’t turn up if it’s not the big 3 or nostalgia stuff like Avengers

Kidd⟢⋆˙⭒ Jay’s keychain (@janaimare) reportedI can’t Shazam every damn songs @MoonShadowGMMTV calm down okay ?
-
Primm_Slim (@Primm_Slim6969) reported@Starseaman71 @FernKalm @JamesPrescott77 And yeah Aquaman and Shazam worked, that's been my point, BvS was bad, and fully because of Zack, but JL was worst, that became because of the studio interference, regardless of John's, the studio still did, and yet after 2 bad movies, those 2 were able to be received well and perform well. So clearly the issue wasn't Zack made a bad movie,he didn't make half a dozen worst **** that droped after JL
-
osita (@osita9401) reported@bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. People just underestimated him and didn’t understand what he was capable of.

Maino ⚡️🔱 (@kxngcurly__) reported@uniquemoviemom Always been my problem with how Shazam is written, he has wisdom of Solomon but at times it seems non existent
