This was entertaining. I guess I don’t understand why Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman weren’t called in if Black Adam was such a threat.

Why was a different country chanting Long Live the Champion in English?

highly agree with the pacing...especially

final act...they literally skip a whole fukking battle :gucci: and how the JS gets through the lair

how they detailing there's only one way in/out then all of a sudden BA is fighting dudes then next scene they're already at the center of the lair :russ:

is BA that strong they skip entire sections of movie to get to the end?

What?
I don't understand which scene you are referring to

I watched this in theater last night.

I thought the actor that played superman switched sides.

I keep hearing shazam. Is that related to the shazam character?

I'm guessing it's building up to another justice league movie.

Plenty of action & I like that they didn't go too heavy with the comedy like a lot of marvel's movies do.

The most electrifying man in all of entertainment did it again.

I didn't know who black Adam was before this movie, but I like his take on violence.

This was a straight no nonsense smash mouth movie.:blessed:

Saw it today
I enjoyed it, actually the rock played it very well.

You will notice a trend, a trend with actors who play superheroes that everyone thought they couldn't pull off.
They did it with Ben Afleck when he played Batman, and now they did it with the rock in Black Adam.
You know what it is? Very little talking, mostly physical acting.

In any case I enjoyed it, I liked that Black Adam did not fly like Superman, instead he kinda mostly flew in a hovered position, looks more fearless.
Action scenes were good but I didn't like how the Justice League came at him, the JL members should not be acting like that with this kind of superpower.
The way they approached him was amateurish, Batman would never have agreed to send these idiots to speak like that with this guy.
Also the skeletons were badly done and super weak, you got this massive demon superpower and he wakes up these weak ass zombie skeletons that the fat electrician beat up like they were a joke.

Other than that I liked the movie, they just chose the wrong JL members man.
But I enjoyed it, I would give it an 8/10.

I'm anxious to see the sequel!

Feels like perhaps one of the worst movies I've paid $ to see in some time. Many are more poorly made but none thought they were "important" the way this does. A massive swing and miss IMO.

Aldis did his thing. We coulda called him Hawkeye the way his eyes were bugging outta his mask. Breh really did look like a hawk.

Black Adam split that dude in half like Kratos. Turned him into the Crimson Jihad. Tell em The Man in Black sent you.:banderas:

Lorne Balfe did his thing with the score too. Brought that epicness that matched all the epic action. There was this persistent leitmotif that reminded me of "Where the Hood At." You can hear it in "Not a Hero."



Since they were throwing the roc up all throughout the movie, fukk critics, they can kiss The Rock's whole a$$hole. If they don't like his movie, they can press fast forward. :wow:

Shazam is a better name anyway. Especially with marvel using that name for like 5 different people
Renaming Captain Marvel 'Shazam' makes about as much sense as renaming the Power Rangers 'Morphin' Time' or Calling He-man 'Power Of Greyskull'

If they had to rename him, I would've chosen 'Captain Thunder'....that was his Flashpoint name.

Calling him Shazam ruins the character in story too:
1) He can now say the word without transforming which is his signature weakness.
2) His sidekicks can't have names like Mary Marvel/Captain Marvel Jr./Sgt. Marvel/ Lt. Marvel...they're all just "Shazam".

You're right, the last 3 years DC's direction is Batman OD.
