The first film was okay but bro who plays Shazam is just annoying to me

In how he sounds and looks idc I’m a hater

So here’s something that’s been kind of irking me in regards to the whole pre-DCU film slate

People are like “well I’m not gonna watch if it doesn’t tie in to the future”

Like does EVERYTHING have to be connected for people? If the movies good and they end up saying it’s not gonna carry on are they still gonna skip? Like a good movie is a good movie regardless of a cinematic universe. Not being in the DCEU didn’t stop people from seeing Joker, so why not apply the same logic to Shazam?

This also comes from me wanting David to get a W here

I’ll be waiting for hbo max, if I don’t skip this crap entirely

honestly i was hyped for this but the trailers don’t look good at all

i liked the first one also

People are so caught up in everything being interconnected after Infinity War and Endgame when in reality most MCU and DCU movies work just fine stand alone and always have

you GOTTA understand, back in 2016 - 2020, a loooot of the "dc isnt marvel" talk poisoned the well. the box office arguments stem from there, superheroes should have their own solo movies before team ups started from here, the connectivity to future plans or events stemmed from there. the rudderless, indecisive dc franchise made ppl have ptsd. that a movie they support would just mean absolutely nothing going forward so why even watch or support it.

its not about "well every movie doesnt have to connect", its that that idea was used repeatedly to dismiss or put down the dc universe. we see remnants of it today. which is why these questions still are something ppl care to ask about.

i agree, not everything has to be a part of something bigger. but this question isnt something thats outta the blue

EDIT: sorry i read this back and it seems a lil condescending, i apologize for that.

we in there day 1

That’s early

Also

Another classic incoming none of that “though not without its faults” bull around here my underrated gem

Looks like we have another underrated classic on our hands

In

dwayne johnson will be in absolute shambles when this outdoes black adam in every way

First step is for us to go out and actually support this film in theaters

I didn’t like the first one and it got great reviews. If it’s more of the same I’ll wait till HBO Max

Co-sign from the boss

lowkey how I feel. imma go watch regardless but my hype is a lot higher for flash and blue beetle.

can't deny that the marketing for this movie hasn't really been there either

I enjoyed the first one. But I'm not rushing to theatre for part 2. Will wait for digital release

trailers might look bad but have you considered the fact that he just threw a truck at a dragon and loves his life??

are we taking bets?

FUN. MAGICAL! FUN!! DID WE MENTION IT HAS FAMILY FUN??? TRULY A MAGICAL OF THE YEAR. super silly FUN!

Is fun not allowed?
