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

  @netrusila_maxim @warnerbros Snyderverse was ****. Sure, they had some good movies like Zack Snyd Snyder's Justice League, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Shazam, and Blue Beetle. But it also had terrible people (Ezra Miller), and it tried to be many things. #SnyderverseisDead, and it is better if it stays that way.

  @SavvyRinu No mind them, they are just tensioning people up and down, my own is the song playing at the background. I just had to shazam it now and findout the title... Straight to download it.. Johnny Drille - Stars Align

  @xavizenberserk So you don't like any of those films? I like Peacemaker season 1. Season 2 had a lot of let down moments, and missed opportunities. I'm not saying I think James Gunn is some amazing director. He's ok. I have to like Shazam... I'm partial. Superman was OK. Had many holes.

  @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[…]

  @mjarbo The VFX were another issue. If they would have removed that whole bus outer space segment that could have dropped the budget probably 30 - 50 million. These movies don't have to be effects heavy. Beetle and Shazam 2 were shot for 59 million less

  @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 😭

  @wakeupusa Oh Geez, not another new word. Besides a cheek swab, just pull your pants down and see what you were born with. Shazam you are a female and or shazam you are a male. No one's taking their rights to identify how they want, but you can't negate biological reality.

  @PghPublicSafety The city of coincidence. Lets look to our past. They wanted a new stadium to replace 3 rivers. Coincidentally, a wall mysteriously falls during a game. Fake prez Joe Biden came in to town to talk about decaying bridges...Shazam.. Frick park bridge comes down same day. Now 🤔

  @ClownWorld Most of the service dogs aren’t really necessary. People get the paperwork signed and Shazam! Now you can bring a dog everywhere. It’s crazy. Either they are all allowed or not. It takes away from those that truly have a service dog and need one.

  @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

  COSOMA’s Blank Media Levy A THREAD 1/ Everybody is arguing about COSOMA payouts, but most people don’t even know what the Blank Media Levy actually is. Some think it’s government tax. Some think it’s Spotify money. Some think COSOMA just wakes up and chooses who to pay. None of that is true. So let’s break it down. 2/ Imagine you make a song. Thousands of people save it on their phones, laptops, memory cards and flash drives. Even if they don’t sell your music, they’re still making copies of it. Now imagine trying to ask every single person to pay you. Impossible, right? 3/ That’s why copyright law created the Blank Media Levy. Instead of chasing millions of people who copy music for personal use, a small levy is collected whenever devices that can store copyrighted content are imported into Malawi. That money goes into one big pool for creators. 4/ The devices include: • Phones • Laptops • Tablets • Flash drives • Hard drives • Memory cards • CDs & DVDs Basically, anything people use to store music, movies or books. 5/ So who collects this money? MRA. Think of MRA as the cashier. When importers bring these products into Malawi, MRA collects the Blank Media Levy together with other applicable charges. It then remits the money to COSOMA. MRA doesn’t decide who gets paid. 6/ Now COSOMA has one big pot of money. Thousands of musicians, filmmakers, writers and other creators are waiting for a share. So… How does COSOMA decide who gets what? 7/ Most people think it’s based on popularity. It isn’t. COSOMA isn’t supposed to ask: “Who’s the biggest artist?” It’s supposed to ask: “Whose copyrighted work was used the most according to the data available?” 8/ Think of two students. One is the most popular kid in school. The other has perfect attendance. Those aren’t always the same person. Royalties work the same way. Popularity and measured usage are not always the same thing. 9/ So how does COSOMA measure usage? Through a monitoring system. Think of it like a football referee. The referee doesn’t guess who scored. He keeps score throughout the game. 10/ Radio stations and TV stations keep playlists and broadcast logs showing every song they play. COSOMA collects that information and uses it to estimate how often songs were broadcast. The more qualifying plays your music gets, the bigger your potential share. 11/ Many copyright societies around the world also use music recognition technology (similar to Shazam) to automatically identify songs played on radio and TV. COSOMA has said it uses monitoring and broadcast data, although it hasn’t publicly explained every technical detail of its system. 12/ Imagine the monitoring results look like this: Artist A — 1,000 plays Artist B — 700 plays Artist C — 300 plays If royalties are shared using that data, Artist A gets a bigger slice than Artist C. Simple. 13/ Now here’s where the debate begins. People ask: “What about churches?” “What about weddings?” “What about crusades?” “What about minibuses blasting gospel all day?” If those uses aren’t captured in the monitoring data, they may not significantly affect the payout. 14/ People ask the same questions about: • YouTube • Spotify • TikTok • Facebook Those don’t automatically count towards Blank Media Levy distributions because they involve different rights and different royalty systems. 15/ This is why an artist can have millions of views… Fill stadiums… Trend every week… …and still receive a royalty payment that surprises everyone. Because popularity isn’t automatically the same as documented copyright use. 16/ So why do some artists receive millions while others receive much less? Generally because of: • More qualifying radio & TV airplay • More licensed public performances • Proper registration of their works • Their ownership share of the copyright Not simply because they’re more famous.

  @fadotzara @TBKReturns No, I hated this universe since Superman 2025, same with the DCEU, it was terrible from the get go with horrible films like MOS and BVS, at least there were some decent movies like WW, Aquaman, and Shazam, but overall it was a terrible universe.

  @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

  @esosaleonard @farbulou One of my major problems with DC and Superman is their inconsistency with him. Magic has been stated a long time a ago to be one of Superman's major weaknesses. Him beating Shazam didn't make sense That bother is not beating Doom

  Javier (@Javier_1814) reported 47 minutes ago

  Popularity 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.

  Fluffy ☕ (@Fluffy_tampons) reported 48 minutes ago

  @garaa_arc None of that happened 😭 nobody liked the movie, it was a really bad movie! Like genuinely one of the worse superhero movies I've seen, and the issue was he thought he was too good to face off Shazam so he tried to face off superman...which made no sense and went nowhere

  @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

  USA Buyers, Spotify accounts, know how to STREAM instead of asking questions during release day, RADIO, SHAZAM. And no debate over that spotify playlist. The problem is we're lack of streamers, not the playlists

  realistically who or what are we blaming for dcs problems right now? why has supergirl underperformed as bad as blue beetle, shazam 2 and the flash? because this needs addressing

  @Duranous @EthanVanSciver The Beetle movie was sadly positioned at the switch over and it really was not terrible. Same with the Shazam flicks. Some of the better ones of that era. Maybe its AI but from what I understand this is who should be appearing in the next Superman movie

  Chasing a car down to Shazam the name of a Chris brown song the car is playing is insane

  @ksdotlewis Nope. That was indeed all obvious. The problem was the way she just waltzed up to him and 'shazam' killed him. No struggle to get to him, no threat from his freezing touch, no clever distraction to land the killing blow. Whatever the foreshadowing, it was lame.
