I'll report back tonight with a review

Yeah that would be cool.
I am still not impressed with the trailers leading up to the movie release.
I really didn't care for the first movie.
To me the first movie was just meh.

Maybe, I'll may use one of my movie passes next week to see it.

:dunno:

They already have the bootleg on the internet
And even though it's a cam version
The audio & video quality is actually pretty decent

Save your money fellas
Because this shit is kinda corny, at least to me anyway
I only laughed like 2, maybe 3 times, at the most
This movie is definitely for the younger audience

Side note:
I think the directors added some extra padding to the women's costumes
Cause it seemed like all of them had some big ol titties ;)

Bro it wasn't just you. Found myself rolling my eyes all too often sitting through this.

What irked me was Billy was supposed to be a few months from turning 18 but Shazam was acting like an immature 12yr old. Made absolutely no sense

I agree with most of Emergency Awesomes's review.

Shazam was not bad at all. Critics are being to way too harsh on it. If you liked the first movie you will enjoy the sequel. If you hated the first movie don't even bother watching this.



They should've given Helen all of Lucy's lines. Lucy Liu sucks in this movie lol. Terrible casting.

Rachel Zegler and Jack Dylan were really good. Rachel getting more calls after this.

Emergency was right about Asher Angel and Zachary Levi. They are playing two different characters. Emo Asher was more of an adult then Zachary.

Megan good wasn't bad at all.

Djimon been good in every movie.

The first movie was better. They played it a little too safe with the sequel.

7/10

this to me was the major flaw of the FIRST film.

And honestly made me think that Levi is at fault and was miscast.

And interestingly at the time?

I thought he would be perfect for this.

‘Shazam! Fury Of The Gods’ Seeing $30M Opening – Friday Box Office

Zachary Levi in 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods'New Line Cinema
Friday afternoon: We’re hearing that New Line’s Shazam! Fury of the Gods is currently on its way to an $11M Friday, inclusive of last night’s $3.4M, for what’s looking like a $30M opening at 4,071 theaters. The pic cost $125M before P&A, $25M more than the first Shazam!
While that’s nothing to scream “Shazam!” about in regards to that projected 3-day, note that we have to see how family matinees impact the pic’s ticket sales, given how younger skewing it is. Meaning, Batman fans aren’t making their way to this movie. According to Comscore, this Friday in March boasts the most for the month when it comes to K-12 schools (34% out) and colleges (42%) on break.


Social media analytics firm RelishMix measured a social media universe across Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and TikTok of 385.5M, +4% over Shazam!, but 27% off superhero genre norms. However, the campaign made ground on TikTok with over 80M views for studio-owned materials.
Says RelishMix, “Shazam 2’s large cast is well activated with materials from worldwide press tour, talk shows and behind-the-scenes elements, giving fans loads to chew through including Zachary Levi at 2.2M fans, Meagan Good at 16.9M, Asher Angle at 13.6M including TikTok and YouTube, Ross Butler at 12.4M, Jack Dylan Grazer at 4.1M, Rachel Zegler at 1.1M and director David Sandberg @ponysmasher who came from directing the micro budget Lights Out for Warner Bros, now at 196K fans.”
RelishMix adds, “Convo on Shazam: Fury of the Gods runs mixed with some chatter excited for Fast Saga’s Helen Mirren and the Eminem song in the trailer — spun with uncertainty about the playful, silly, goofy tone of the few materials in rotation on YouTube along with comparisons to other DC characters who travel down deeper darker paths. There’s also critical comparison to the first installment.”
Courteney Cox in ‘Scream VI’Everett Collection
Also per industry estimates, Paramount/Spyglass Media’s Scream VI booked at 3,676 theaters is seeing a second Friday of $5.3M, -72%, and a potential second weekend of $18.4M,-59%, for a running total of $76.9M; which would be $4.7M away from overtaking the domestic final of last year’s Scream ($81.6M).
Third belongs to MGM/UAR’s third weekend of Creed III at 3,477 theaters which is eyeing a $4.5M Friday, -40% and a third weekend of $16M-$17M, -39%, for a running total of $127.3M by Sunday.

Fourth is Sony’s 65 at 3,405 theaters which is seeing a second Friday of $1.5M (-66%), second weekend of $5.3M (-57%) and ten-day take of $21.9M.
Fifth belongs to Disney/Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania at 2,650 theaters with a fifth Friday of $1.3M, -24%, fifth weekend of $5.3M, -26%, $207.05M.
Friday AM: New Line’s DC sequel Shazam! Fury of the Gods got off the ground at 3 p.m. Thursday and posted $3.4M in previews at 3,400 theaters.
That’s less than the first Shazam! back in April 2019, which did $5.9M in its Thursday previews (off showtimes that began at 4 p.m.). Shazam! also had another $3.3M in previous Fandango previews back in the day, for a grand preview total of $9.2M before a $20.3M Friday and a $53.5M opening.
RELATED STORY
‘Shazam! Fury Of The Gods’ Premiere: Zachary Levi On DC Franchise Future Under “Excellent Leaders” James Gunn & Peter Safran: “It All Comes Down To What The People Want”
Fury of the Gods, from the same director as Chapter 1, David F. Sandberg, is expected to come in under the first and will be lucky to hit $40M (domestic outlook is $35M, $85M global). We’ve been in a hot marketplace whereby sequels have been setting franchise-opening records, read Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania ($106.1M), Creed III ($58.3M) and Scream VI ($44.4M). That doesn’t seem to be the case here with Shazam! Fury of the Gods. We’ll keep watch if its situation improves.
The sequel is currently 54% Rotten with Critics with an 84% audience score, this versus the 2019 installment that was 90% certified fresh with an 82% audience score. That said, the first Shazam! was able to pull off an A CinemaScore. General audiences on Comscore/Screen Engine’s PostTrak gave the first film four stars.
Why make a sequel? The first one opened well and, despite making close to $366M worldwide, made a little profit for New Line with a net of $74M. DC Studios Co-Chief Peter Safran is a producer on the Shazam! franchise.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods bounced around the calendar, impacted by the pandemic, like several other films, but the most recent previous release date was December 21. Warner Bros. moved the sequel away from Avatar: The Way of Water, much to the upset of exhibitors, who were expecting more bucks at the end of the year. But it was for good reason: to get access to Imax, PLF screens and premium-ticket formats. Not to mention, Warner Bros. launched The Batman in March last year (granted, two very different superheroes).
Deeper dive on the first Shazam‘s audience make-up: Kids and parents repped 25% of the audience, which sources believe is a share which could expand on this one. Guys over under/over 25 were equally at 33%. Diversity breakdown was 53% Caucasian, 17% Hispanic, 13% Asian and 11% African American.
How the rest of the box office fared:

Save your money. It's not Birds of Prey bad but it's not good either. 1st Shazam was definitely better. Best part about this movie was Meagan Good in her tight costume
They already have the bootleg on the internet
And even though it's a cam version
The audio & video quality is actually pretty decent
