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.

real cozy guy (@lvbs) reportedbefore shazam, i used to find songs i heard by writing down wtvr lyrics i could make out, go home and google them to find the song. now when you search lyrics, the ai guess machine will tell you six irrelevant things and the song still won’t appear in the search results
-
GMVC🏴 (@_GMVC) reported@jaycubedd Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam all were good imo, the rest was terrible man
-
Will Jenkins (@ImWillJenkins) reportedHave @SHAQ appear as Shazam. Avengers wish Doom to turn into Iron Man. Boom. Two problems solved.
-
Nitrix (@Nitrix79) reportedMy bff said we should watch Logan together. That would be really fun. I would down to watch it together with him when we’re able to. First we’re gonna watch Shazam 2 together then Logan, then the Spider-verse movies when it’s closer to the third movie’s release date.

******** and Seven Inches Ago (@redrummarts) reportedGoing through a box of old comics and seeing a bunch of random Superman and Shazam issues I never read before and it turns out my dad used to get them Huh
-
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

***** Archer 🏹 (@DirtyArcher) reported@NicholasCraven_ Man i heard a sample like a year ago and tried to Shazam it but my service was *** and til this day I'm still trying to figure out the song lol.
-
Brian Costello (@BrianRCostello) reportedHe was literally doing the job of a studio CEO in trying to make his company’s product better after audiences not being thrilled with it If the film had been scoring better and not in the same range as Shazam 2 and Batgirl in the 60’s, there would have been no issues
-
Jackie P (@52Variables) reported@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!

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

Ddeonu’s hair is 🍊 ૮₍˃̵֊ ˂̵ ₎ა (@enha_otters) reported@mindlesscato I also tried but couldn’t find it 🥲🥲 even shazam but its not working 😭
-
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.
-
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
-
Red Sparrow || Voiceover Artist (@Ibkofficial1) reportedBefore Spotify and Shazam became a thing, I used to watch the credits of movies all the way down till the last minute just so I could see the title of songs they used. Good times. 😌
-
𝑴𝒓. 𝑾𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒅 (@Cr7winiano_) reported@bekeestitches I think the problem was never Shazam himself. 😭 The story, writing, and how the character was handled made people overlook how much potential he actually had. ⚡🔥
-
I.J KLMNOP (@MoPride_) reportedSometimes, I wonder if Shazam has ear problems.
-
Terios (@Terios_FSE) reported@powcampsurvivor I remember in the movie they specifically mentioned watching Godzilla too. I don't know if that was real or just a fun line cause it was around that time. He DID base a lot of his persona on Shazam though so he'd be down with the cinematic universes too.
-
Dreams Uncharted Comix (@DreamsUnchartd) reported@CTPhipps1980 Well they did. They renamed him to Shazam a while back to avoid problems with Marvel I think.
-
Clipsbaba 🪖 (@Clipsbaba21) reported@bekeestitches Yeah the writing tanked it, Shazam himself was never the real problem.
-
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

𒀭 𝑳𝒆𝒕 𝑴𝒆 𝑰𝒏 ✫彡 (@cosmicfellstar) reportedDabs her up, gives them a cute little hand shake. “I hope we get to work together soon. I haven’t been on any missions at all, so I’m so hyped up to get stuff down. Miss Shazam.”

Stephen Wallace (@sjwolosz123) reportedsometimes a problem arises that you just have to figure out .. someway, somehow . It's not like I was installing tiles on The Space Shuttle or solved cold fusion .. It was a carpentry problem""" .. and the problem was " How are we going to install these interior doors " .. this is generally where all the ding ****'s that built a picnic table or fixed a decking board on grandma's singlewide trailer kick in and say " Well all you gotta do " .. Like Delbert Kent stepping into a phone booth and coming out Super-Carpenter .. The problem was multifaceted and I learned a lot ,, found a new way to set doors so perfectly that they would be approved by NASA .. , Standards and Measures.. atomic clocks would be calibrated to. It was a one time deal but each had to be done 50+ times unerringly .. This was a 20 million dollar home for the owner of a baseball team . contemporary and designed by someone using massive amounts of shrooms .. The doors came in components and the parameters were . . the jambs had to sit on flooring that was pickled in France and had to fit with aircraft tolerances . the jambs were 10 ply exotic wood that was as flimsy as a wet noodle , they had an automotive finish and couldn't be fastened through .. only in the hinge mortise and the casing was also automotive finish and couldn't be face nailed , screwed or any visible fastener . That in itself kneecaps a carpenter . " No way to connect and right " only hot glue or an adhesive that once you commit to .. your doomed .. It'll take explosives to remove .. You got one take . One zinger is .. the flimsy jamb had to be set first precisely .. Not the conventional way whereas the door is in the jamb and it assist in margins and racking .. Nope .. jamb must be perfect first and when you hang that 200 lb blast door for NORAD .. all the reveals , alignments and tolerances better be Shazam .. no do overs !! .. heavy doors have a tendency to pull hard on the upper hinge and open margins on the strike side and scrub the jamb .. This would be unacceptable .. no pre-stressing . no mockup . 5 carpenters stared at these doors and mulled theoreticals for a week . the superintendent was becoming disturbed . every idea I lobbed up got swatted down .. naysayer galore since I was the knuckle dragging carpenter and didn't look like Norm or Bob with matching plaid . .. then I had an epiphany and procedure ... All the naysayers bellowed out " It can't be done like that " .. I already did it in my mind !! .. I spread my tool belt , shined my hammer and took flight and they left me alone for the duration of the job .. I won awards as " The Mad Scientist " .. I let the math do the walking .. It was Genius !! . 😎😜

RickSeal (@Justrelaxabitt) reported@donovanmartin5 At this point I dont believe snyder will be back. Sure I preferred his style and tone. But that doesnt mean i can pretend this DCU stuff is interesting. Superman was entertaining but it still felt very cookie cutter and safe to appease all the old complaints. All these suit designs are just awful too. Supergirls box office is also telling that the dcus problems are abit more larger than a vocal minority. I dont know what the answer is for DC but I do know judging by everything since Birds of prey, shazam 2, ww84 that they need to ditch the action comedy feel good "family" stuff. Avatar is a great example of what the tone should be. Families watch avatar. They dont need to make everything "light hearted" for a family to watch it.

King Emmanuel (@Obanuell) reported@bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The real issue was everyone underestimating what he could become and how much power he actually carried. They judged the kid instead of understanding the hero.
