Shazam Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • NormandyN7 Austin Bateman (@NormandyN7) reported

    @Lunwi88 Yeah but Shazam makes sense cause it’s about a KID getting the powers of a god so I was fully prepared for any type of **** like that to happen. I’m also mentally prepared for Disney to come up with stuff like this but it’s always a let down when it comes to ******* THOR.

  • yara_wayne Yara Wayne 🦇 (@yara_wayne) reported

    @IMMY_ISLAM @TheComixKid He was set to be in Shazam 1, I think scheduling was the issue.

  • JustFlanagan J Flan (@JustFlanagan) reported

    @DCComics Would be nice to have an actual ongoing Shazam series that lasted more than 15 or so issues... I guess the best y'all gonna give us is a bunch of one-shots and short stories that never get properly finished...

  • venusflowermp3 Wes༄࿔ (@venusflowermp3) reported

    Weird that shazam-ing is now considered a metric of a song’s popularity/success when I very frequently use it to identify a song that is particularly terrible

  • siahsargus Michael Moody (@siahsargus) reported

    @MKBHD that can detect MERE SECONDS of any of their BLOATED LIBRARY of songs? An evil shazam that just exists seemingly only to kill the revenue of video creators who walk through places with copyrighted music? (And has been used by cops to get protest videos taken down)

  • ELPlethora El Plethora (@ELPlethora) reported

    @TheComixKid That’s a terrible idea. A headless cameo in Shazam, which would’ve lead into him being erased in the Flash movie to set up a Crisis movie in what 2025? That’s awful.

  • 92artRaider Raider_92art(aka Giter_92) ✝️ (@92artRaider) reported

    @austyngraham Mos was okay, BVS theatrical cut unwatchable. Extended cut was better. SS terrible. WW amazing love it. Justice leauge terrible, Aquaman a mess, Shazam Loved it, BOP never watched and never will, WW84 Batman and Robin modern take, JL Snydercut better but way too long.

  • puskintio JP95 (@puskintio) reported

    Shazam vs Black Adam in the #DCU when !? @JamesGunn @TheRock @ponysmasher ALSO would #HenryCavillSuperman join the fight or leave them to it ? I feel like he’d try and calm the situation down and then be forced to step in but that’s just me

  • macleanbrendan brendan (@macleanbrendan) reported

    There should be a Shazam where you can immediately tell the artist their song is terrible.

  • imaginishan i 🪶 (@imaginishan) reported

    Music identification through apps like Shazam is so broken – it's borderline frustrating. My success rate would easily be <20%. Almost quit after scrolling through 200+ comments on a YT video, if not for a kind soul to leave the soundtrack's name down there. Ecstatic, but smh.

  • 07_Ravens_Love4 (Fan )- Dreamers 🏆JKARMA (@07_Ravens_Love4) reported

    @_RapperJK No difference at all. It’s same. And I still hate how FIFA not doing anything to fix the problem about Yt credits, Shazam, etc.., they should be helping us on this and yet here they released this.

  • annericelover Eric Curto (@annericelover) reported

    way to name yourself. This is why during the whole film he never actually has an official name. It's kind of sad to see all the fans thinking his name is Shazam and always referring to him that way. Even after Black Adam shows Teth Adam saying Shazam to power down and power up.

  • Benjmeister85 Bendrix 🦁 (@Benjmeister85) reported

    The one issue I can see with any kind of reboot for the #DCEU is the impact in projects coming out like The Flash, Shazam 2, Blue Beetle etc. Is there any point investing in them as fans for probably no pay off. It needs to happen but its such a mess at this point.

  • jonnbridges Jon Bridges 🍿🎄❄️ (@jonnbridges) reported

    And if 'Black Adam' 2' happens I'm not saying Adam versus Superman would be bad, I'm down for that, but there's a reason Adam was originally slated as a Shazam villain and has never appeared in a Superman movie. It's fake rivalry, a trick I suspect Rock took from his WWE days...

  • ThisIsChika_v2 . (@ThisIsChika_v2) reported

    Unrelated but not really: I feel, after reading all that, that despite Black Adam being a flop (they have THAT now as a reason to toss him), they'd be down to keep Dwayne & everything w/ it if he quits distancing himself from SHAZAM & acc plays ball w/ them (Sandberg, Levi etc).

  • GrayHarden77 Gray Harden (@GrayHarden77) reported

    I knew The Rock was gonna be an issue when he started hashtagging "Black Adam Universe" on his Instagram post. I honestly believe he would refuse to make a Shazam vs Black Adam film if Superman isn't involved.

  • SuperBobNewbie Bob Newbie (@SuperBobNewbie) reported

    @TheRealLennan @Captain63857795 @DiscussingFilm Which was better than almost everything else the DCEU put out except for maybe Shazam. It was a hell of a movie. And there are a lot of critiques to be made about 84, but to say it was terrible is just not being honest about what a terrible movie looks like

  • jelbugle j(ingle)_(b)e_l(ls)🎄 (@jelbugle) reported

    @peoples_pop @actualeesimpson Shazam could be a skewed metric - could be people looking up ‘what’s this terrible song?’ - not that I think Gold is terrible!

  • rauldjvp Raúl DJVP (@rauldjvp) reported

    @kobcritic_ Shazam was made and distributed without much trouble

  • ShrutiG22422034 Farina ~DREAMERS FIFAKOOK ~ (@ShrutiG22422034) reported

    @Nsyhjtj7inlife It's not only this issue, I'm fed up of u armies. Why can't u all see the mistreatment with JK. Spotify, yt, melon, Shazam he got sabotaged on every single platform multiple times not only for dreamers and got affected badly because of that. Even many armies saw and agreed but u

  • JYoumans44 Josh Youmans (@JYoumans44) reported

    @KeiziTV It's literally just a Marvel version of Shazam giving his powers away.... that whole movie had issues. The Gorr comic run was fantastic and they kind of wasted it.

  • effoff1988 Phantom (@effoff1988) reported

    @elysiacb @Junaidbadar20 I never "loved" a DC film but I did quite like Shazam, Wonder Woman and Birds of Prey. Man of Steel and BvS had potential and Cavill was solid but the material let him down a bit. Aquaman was very silly but as long as it was viewed as an unintentional camp classic, it worked.

  • funEman_ Ethan 🎬 | Sam Raimi Enjoyer (@funEman_) reported

    @OH_squire There are very few cameos that are actually good and service the story, character arcs etc without missing the point(s) of the original character. Or just harmless gags. I can think of Kilmonger in WF for one that works for the story and Superman in Shazam for a goofy one.

  • AppleNuggets John M (@AppleNuggets) reported

    @Leo_Rafael99 Actually, of the terrible things DC is doing lately, Shazam is the worst. What a mess!

  • MikeCastroFilms Mike Castro (@MikeCastroFilms) reported

    @el_yorch00 @JamesGunn I agree on Wonder Woman 1, Shazam, and TSS. I don't agree that his movies are only polarizing because they are his unique vision as a filmmaker. They're divisive because MOS was the closest thing to a good movie he made and everything else was clunky and terrible stories.

  • momopdo_c 모기🏳️‍⚧️ (@momopdo_c) reported

    @TraceOfWarmth Shazam bam, shocka locka lokey Shaggy the clown back like scoliosis Call me a psycho-skitso freak And I'll call you by your name (****-anus) 'Cause I can give two shits and a **** I bounce down Verner in a popcorn clown truck

  • TheeWandaStan 𝒯𝓇ꫀꪜ (@TheeWandaStan) reported

    @Johncol41546109 @AlvaroGnz__ @JamesGunn obviously you’re a fake fan otherwise you would be annoyed with black adam as a movie. the writing was terrible, the action was mediocre and they didn’t even bother to include shazam

  • Babatunde1971 Sherman Woodard (@Babatunde1971) reported

    @HigherPrimat3 Let me know if you find it. Shazam let me down.

  • Roam85Gaming Pete H (@Roam85Gaming) reported

    @filmsbygays Maes Hughes in original Full Metal Alchemist. Bing Bong in Inside Out (knowing he didn’t just die, but was wholly forgotten). And Shazam in DKR2, terrible comic, but the fact that Billy already was dead so Shazam’s afterlife was just “where do dreams go when you wake up?”

  • cepmurphy Charles EP Murphy (@cepmurphy) reported

    @Jamesotron Black Adam's had a higher box office than Shazam (by about $20m); the problem is it cost over twice as much as Shazam.
