    Here we have Gretchen Whitmer (aka SHAZAM) with an important public service notice about an issue that is not an issue. What a joke.

    @The_Boricua_AMC I don’t think i can fully attribute this as the reason. The GA wasn’t as wired into that as you think. Plus, 3 of those films were sequels to films that were liked* before. 3 of those got bad reviews (Shazam, Aquaman, Joker 1 was mixed, and had controversy (Flash) 1 was reviewed well but made no money (Blue Beetle) So 4 of those projects weren’t even considered good. The public still pays attention to reviews. They added to the “mediocre film issue”

    @mains_p I thought I’d heard that this Shazam run was canned, but I didn’t care enough to look further into it. This really does just feel like such a random, spiteful issue lmao

    @Ian_Schwartzman Ian, I'm currently working on a platform where you can search quotes and excerpts like you do on Shazam, to get the source book and an affiliated link to purchase it on Amazon.... Without copyright issues. That's just the surface model proof. When can you discuss this with me?

    Shazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!

    @ayothesage_ He did shrug off the flow of information that was weighing Shazam down even with Solomon's wisdom. He was seeing that and still had time to worry about Shazam. So it's not far fetched to say that he can

    @The4thTurtleNyC Aquaman was an aberration despite what Snyder did to the DCEU. It excelled and became a blockbuster. Then the Snyder influence reared its ugly head and took down Shazam. A movie with Wonder Woman like critical and audience reviews and grossed less than a 1/3 of what Aquaman did.

    @JOKAQARMY1 Man, how many bottles of water does Siri consume? Let’s be real here we have had Ai since Shazam and Siri, so why is it not the biggest issue when it’s adapting to everyday life

    @LilithThelema @LilFormers Shazam is the name of the wizard who gave powers to Earth's mightiest hero. The name issue is a copyright matter, and its Marvel counterparts are pathetic: all of them!

    @GrahamGeekEire @MikeKalinowski @Filipe_sca I like the DCU I haven’t even watched any Snyder versus movies besides Shazam James is starting to disappoint though because the problem is, he’s a fan living out his fan power fantasy through his work and just does what he wants to do also this being made by a war criminal

    Funny Fact... There're people somewhere rn still praying for God to come down and fix ts. IDK who Nigerians think God is... the Advengers abi Shazam?? I STRONGLY believe in God and I know he gave us all we need to survive but most Nigerians are just too blind to see

    @texanKhris @kirawontmiss Sorry, can't access the video audio to Shazam it from here. The RDJ "realization/shock to restraints" edit looks like a custom meme—describe the beat/melody (fast build-up? orchestral? trap?) and I'll track it down!

    @tiktok_us how about you make it so we can hold down somewhere on the video to find what song is playing. Use @Shazam. All I ask is one payment of 100k

    @Jayysein Superman, Shazam and Black Adam would fix it. Shazam isn‘t vulnerable to Magic so Even Dr. Strange would be no Problem.

    @the_xueyutanhua Shazam 20 was the worst written, most incompetently edited, worst managed issue at DC of the past several years- and, that’s saying something with Sinister Six and Absolute Power having been published.

    @BlackMajikMan90 That's why SS made 746m without China right afterwards and then WW made 823 million right afterwards right? And even after the trainwreck the execs made Aquaman made a billion,but BvS derailed the franchise right? The problems start with Shazam You disingenuous piece of ****

  • juliecbarrett
    Julie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) reported

    Last week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.

    what happened to @Shazam ? There was a time when you could hum a song for 5sec and it would find it. Now you can play 10sec of the actual song and it doesn’t find anything?! What a degradation of service

  • The_DrJ3ckyll
    John Hyde (@The_DrJ3ckyll) reported

    @seattletimes @Widgetreine7 If you don’t investigate to find any issues Shazam there are no issues. In the same vain you can argue the same about legally purchased firearms and conceal and carry individuals. The left has no problem imposing even more draconian regulations for firearm purchases and ownership that are far above even these changes suggested for voting.

    @EthicalSkeptic @JohnPlatner I started w/ google, gave them all the info. they wanted. Tried a few times through them and I failed. Then used Woo..2 single orders (myself and brother-in-law). Then Shazam sent a fraud alert and mentioned Milton, Georgia and ******/dating service? I have windows 10 computers

    @MILFMlLK source wall yes. I forgor abt that ngl (it happens after the green cube) but the monsterlands... uncertain. death metal almost entirely decanonizes his shazam issues bc it acts as if he just got out of the source wall but honestly who freakin knows

    @yngblkeconomist Lana most definitely was going hard for Chris Watts. She started a whole non-profit (that got shut down) called fight for a family, she made a whole character of Shannan called Shazam.
