Lools fun. Suit is on the bad side but s a small gripe for me.
|
Looks good! I hope it actually does end up being good!
Too bad DC doesn't own the name Captain Marvel instead of Marvel..... because this character will always be Captain Marvel to me...... |
Its Captain Marvel to me as well but Shazam is fine. I'll live with it.
|
Yeah, I'll live with it, and have been living with it for pretty much over a decade...... just making meaningless wishes and what-ifs.......

If its intentional they nailed it. Doesnt make me like it any better though.
|
I think it looks good
|
Looks great!
|
Is this the sequel to Kazaam?
|
No. No, it is not.
|
Hot damn this looks good.
|
Did Shaq die off screen like Newt and Hicks in Alien 3? Why isn't he in the trailer?
|
Looks more like a Marvel movie..in a good way. DC going back to basics?
|
This looks.....different? I dunno. Not as soldon it as I was hoping. It looks goofy. Like, too goofy. But we'll see. I'm hoping it's good. D.C. needs a boost after BVS and JL sucking hard.
Aquaman to end the year, then this and Wonder Woman next year. Hopefully it's a positive step for them. At least it's not super serious super dark business |
Proving they can hit more than one note is key for DC right now
|
Filming a character in the spirit with which the comics were written would be a great start.
|
No idea how Shazam is presented in the comics. Does this look accurate?
|
I have no idea :lol:

I don't think he'd be in the this film but if there is a sequel I'm hoping they include Shazam's pal Tawky Tawny.

That's the sort of sidekick you want, a talking tiger.
|
I love this trailer! It looks so fun!!
|
Looks fun as fuck.

Dad-pool
|
I hope I said that before any critics get in there with it.
|
That transition where he jumps off the building and gets hit by lighting/turns to Shazam is pretty sweet.
|
It all looks great. I'm surprised because it honestly looks to be the best DC movie by a fair way and I bet, like me, the general public knows/knew nothing about the character until now.
|
I am hoping it can be as good as Aquaman and continue an upward trend for DC
|
This year is gonna be so packed with movies.
|
What a thing to say

|
It looks genuinely delightful.
|
Really looking forward to this
|
Is this in the DCEU?
|
And agreed, this looks fun. The bit at the end of the trailer where he attempts to jump over the building and crashes through the window made me chuckle. Possibly the first time I've ever found something from a DC trailer funny.
|
Yeah it's DCEU. One of the last maybe.
|
Not one of the last at all.
They just aren't going to focus on them all being connected in the future as much and focus more on each movie. Sequel for Aquaman announced for a couple years down the road, Wondy sequel comes out this year, Flash film still likely too. Birds of Prey filming. Bats will be a story about young Bats and Suicide Squad will be a different cast of characters than the first film using a James Gunn script. |
The DCEU was supposed to be essentially their MCU. If they're not sharing canon it is not a coherent universe which only works in that sense. Call it what they want ("World of DC" or whatever) but the DCEU as advertised is about dead without some effort to create a living universe. They're still making movies of course and certain characters will splinter off into their own canon which is fine - but DCEU is done.
|
I think they'll just be happy to have a couple of not-shit films tbh
|
At this point yeah. Fortunately Aquaman was good and Shazam seems enjoyable so far. WW84 should be cool. I sincerely hope Birds of Prey is good.
|
Will be weird if Shazam is DC's best film. Then Marvel can suggest DC had to take a character who should be called Marvel to do it.
I need to find out when Aquaman is released for home entertainment, brb |
Released today for D/L and the 26th for home entertainment.
|
Will maybe purchase Aquaman when it comes out.... rarely ever purchase movies....
|
Oh right, good for you...?
|
I mean you say these things but it's just The Last Samurai time and time again.
No follow through. |
Hey man, I watched that movie a few months ago.... I didn't buy it, but..... etc
Last physical movie I bought was Justice League |
How's that holding up for you?
|
Watched it a few times, still enjoyed it, and now it is sitting on a shelf.
|
Yeah me too. Ezra Miller holds that flimsy fucker together. I hope he gets another shot as Flash.
|
Social Media Embargo has lifted for Shazam and it's overwhelmingly positive, many calling it the best/2nd best movie DC has ever made.
|
I bet it is the best. It appears to have some extra humanity thrown in for good measure.
|
That depends if you are counting The Dark Knight or not.
|
Wait you probably hate The Dark Knight via being Seanny One Ball...
|
I don't know where you'd get that idea from.
I'm a pretty big Batman, Bale and Nolan fan separately so having the all together was a pretty big deal. |
The Dark Knight is nowhere even close to my favorite superhero movie. Because it’s not really a superhero movie. It’s a crime drama with superhero elements.
I absolutely respect the quality of the film, and the performances within it, but when it it comes to superhero movies I love it when it’s literally what’s on the page, come to life. That’s not what the Nolan trilogy is. |
Came closer than anybody else has
|
It had 100% on Rotten Tomatoes earlier but has now leveled around 93%

Is this the one where Sinbad plays a Genie?
|
My cousin had the book of Kazaam with a big picture of Shaq on the cover.
The book of Kazaam... I mean come on... It was like 50 pages long in large print. That's how I know Mandela didn't get to me, I'll never forget the day I saw that book. I was immediately drowning in unanswerable questions. |
Saw it Saturday. My favorite DCEU movie. The most fun I've had watching a DC film in theaters.
|
Fuck yeah
