Shazam Shazam General Discussion and Speculation - Part 2

[SomeOldGuy]

Lolololol this looks awesome! Can’t wait!

 

[BH/HHH]

So you're the one.

 

[Primal Slayer]

It looks good! I liked everything except the Wizard scene "Billy, say my name!" "who the hell the are you first of all?" thats what I felt about the scene.

 

[Marvel united]

Eh, disagree. Not that I have an issue with the direction they've chosen, but I don't think the concept is as limited as you do.

I think they could have made this more badass, that's for sure. Shazam in N52 or Shazam in Injustice didn't look as laughable as this guy but hey, if that's the route they chose. Still going to enjoy the movie

 

[Kane52630]

All we need now is a Lord and Miller Plastic Man movie.

 

[NotNickFury]

Am I the only one who immediately thought of Pokemon when the wizard said 'Billy, I choose you'?

Come on, it's not just me, right? But really liked that trailer.

 

[Gee]

I can get behind this.

[Steyin]

Really enjoyed this trailer, a lot more than Aquaman.

 

[Milk Tray Guy]

Really enjoyed this trailer, a lot more than Aquaman.

Other way round for me!

 

[KaijuDude1992]

I can definitely understand why some liked this trailer more than Aquamans. It's more coherent and better structured, but for me personally I need to see
a lot more before I get too excited. Levi looks like he's having a ton of fun with the role though.

Aquaman looks like too much CGI again, reminiscent of Justice League and BvS. Of course, it's impossible to do Aquaman without that, given all the underwater scenes.

It probably would've been fine on its own if those two movies hadn't happened before it, but it's hard to forget about them now.

But also I find Shazam more relatable than Aquaman, and also the basic premise of it. I'm not a big fan of Momoa.

 

[Vaibow]

They’re really leaning into the Big movie vibe. Wouldn’t be surprised if there is a homage to the piano scene.

like the set pics we saw that were leaked recently??? of him literally doing that scene?

 

[Mandon Knight]

The trailer is epic. I can see it (as I thought it would be) my fave CBM of the year, outside of Incredibles 2, but Aquaman trailer was a very close second.

 

[dhandler01]

Trailer has past a million views already...nice

 

[Iceman]

Aquaman is easily my favourite but Shazam was decent which is saying a lot given I wasn’t that interested when the film was originally announced.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

I like them both. They're so different it's hard to compare.

 

[Wheels]

This is exactly what I wanted from Shazam. This gonna be awesome.

 

[Astro13Zombie]

I like them both. They're so different it's hard to compare.

This

I’m just...
A very happy DC fan t:

 

[dhandler01]

Agreed.

Freddy Freeman just reminds me of a buddy of mine so much I cant stop smiling when I see him! And Levi's reactions whenever anything cool happens is just great! Such a fun trailer

"#Shazam takes place very much within the heart of the DCEU... It's probably the most aware of that universe in itself." - @ZacharyLevi

 

[Mandon Knight]

This is exactly what I wanted from Shazam. This gonna be awesome.

Same, it's ripped right from the New 52 version, which, whilst many N52 were not good, Shazam was amongst the better 'new' versions. Looks quality, I'm loving the 'Big' & 'Incredibles' style level & aim of the humour and nostalgia value. It's gonna good at the box office. Can feel it already.

 

[Mandon Knight]

The store scene was like Robocop but with added skittles. (That's a good thing btw).

 

[terry78]

I wonder if they're gonna include Tawky Tawny.
