    I was just thinking about this now.. it was so unfair. we got less time to prepare for nonexistent, super poorly organized Back To Life promotion. practically zero promotion outside twitter, broken links, the song was stolen across streaming platforms, shazam got hijacked, MV + release announce last minutes and BTL hit streaming a month later. we were on our own while other fbs got weeks to prep. we could've done so much more with an early heads up. we could've easily debuted with over 1M streams if jyp wasnt so ****** 😭😭😭

    Had negligible involvement with Flash ,AM 2 , Blue Beetle , Shazam 2 all projects green lit before he arrived and mostly shot CC didn’t fail Peacemaker season 2 only had a finale problem Supergirl is the only failure It’s funny you don’t give him credit for Penguin’s success

    @bekeestitches Yeah the writing tanked it, Shazam himself was never the real problem.

    @tuvya68 @Hollywood_Solo That was even the problem with the modern Shazam movies ..that fans complained because Shazam acted exactly like Billy.

    @Paapi_Billota just admit that the last 6 movies in that universe were utter **** from Shazam to the Flash. they were so bad, they had to shut down the universe, and your boy was still grieving over his daughter killing herself.

    @OrevaZSN You could probably do this with existing Shazam by uploading a bunch of tracks of various car sounds to YouTube or something with titles indicating the problem and waiting for Shazam to index them

    @r0lgar77 @CultureCrave @DCOfficial Everyone did, recasting superman was a dis service.

    @StebobM @StevenKentSV My issues I feel like the rock made it too, overly complicated about not just letting black Adam be a villain, who then has an arc to be more anti-hero wish with his past storyline, and then I feel like him also fighting against not wanting to be connected to Shazam hurt

  • superladkid
    superladkid (@superladkid) reported

    @TheRochaSays What’s even more baffling is that Wonder Woman, Joker, Aquaman, and to some extent Shazam were all box office successes followed up with the most terrible inconsequential sequels you could imagine.

  • Zrbialk
    Ron Bialkowski (@Zrbialk) reported

    @FakeNightskin I am having trouble getting into this title because it's being written for younger readers. I when DC did the time jump and I liked Campbell's writing less on Shazam! less. So I really cannot have an opinion. Just don't trivialize Peter David's Linda Danvers.

    @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. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

    @YagoRochaAlvz "He took down the Snyderverse" Outperformed both Shazam movies, Flash and Wonder Woman 2 and was the better movie.

    @p3aced3fender2 @doubtfully_xD you cant shazam the song, not because its in arabic, but probably because its taken down from youtube and spotify.

    @larrytooreaal You can just take a screenshot from the edit and send to any ai it’ll give you the answer , if there’s to be something like Shazam for movies it’ll neeed access to your screen , privacy issues would arise

    @raingod09790030 Shazam was during the broken DCEU, not the DCU that has been solid. Go cry about it.

    @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.

    @OtunbaSebotimo It’s a great movie. The only problem is teenage Billy Batson is played as a serious, street-smart kid, but when he transforms into Shazam, he completely changes into an over-the-top, immature goofball. Doesn’t feels like they the same person

  • SongAngel15
    Song ⱽ Angel 😇 Layover (fan account) (@SongAngel15) reported

    @btskthv1230 @StanTae51027 Exactly! They want to drive true supporters away. We must ignore these insecure people who don’t respect or appreciate the enormous clout Taehyung brings to BTS. His brand ambassadorships have been heavily involved in promoting the group’s Arirang tour. His solo endeavors, like his first pitch at the LA Dodgers game, got the forthcoming BTS comeback mentioned to the whole world of baseball. His Chinese fanbase, Baidu V Bar was historically the largest purchaser of BTS albums. They metaphorically shoot themselves in the foot by trying to silence us into leaving. This desire to equalize the members by their own insistence is tiresome. It’s unnecessary. The members themselves said on multiple occasions in the past that Taehyung is the one with worldwide impact. It’s a known fact, yet no one needs to take him down a peg because Tae is humble. Instead, they attack his support system, the ones who stream, vote, Shazam, buy physical albums, iTunes, magazines, merch from his brands, engage with his articles, make radio requests, praise his accomplishments…and they want us to believe Tae hates us. Are they hoping we are so immature that we’ll go away crying? No one who works this hard has time for their nonsense.

    @GunntArchive Shazam had a terrible script and writing tho, this film series relied upon Zachary Levi"s acting way too much

    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.

    @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?

    @NickZednik If this is the math we are trying to math with, Levi is only one worth bringing back going by Shazam 1 performance. Anyone, burn it all down.

    2002. 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.
