What are the fight / action scenes like?
Honestly there are only 2 in the whole movie. This first one was pretty par for the course when it came to Superhero movies, the second one was the same but I felt it relied too heavily on slomo, which hadn't been in the movie until that point.
Similar to the normal video game cgi style that they usually use in DC movies but it works well.
How would you rank it among all existing DC films?
I make it a point to not follow capeshit but I'm legitimately confused now. I thought this character was Captain Marvel. Did they make a female reboot at the same time they made a movie with the original character? Is this what everyone's been bitching about?
How is Mary Marvel?
Are we just talking DCEU or all DC?
DCEU: The best one
DC: I haven't seen EVERY DC movie but I'd say Nolan's batman movies were better, at least the first two
I guess I meant DCEU/recent DC films, sorry should have specified.
I really didn't have much interest in seeing it since I wasn't familiar with the character but seeing how much positive feedback it's getting I think I will go see it.
This is the original Captain Marvel. Marvel has had their own Captain Marvel since the 60s, but it was a man. They gave the title to a related female character in 2012, which is what the movie is about.
This Captain Marvel can't be called Captain Marvel on titles and promotional material due to the Marvel copyrights. DC decided in 2012 to just start calling him Shazam which is the word he uses to transform into the superhero and which has been associated to him for decades too.
Apparently in the movie there's a running joke of them trying to come up with a name for him and he didn't actually get one. But he's still credited as Shazam.
How many jumpscares?
One
Was there a Superman cameo?
Yeah but you don't see his face
what was the post credits scene?
What do you think about the sex scenes?
I thought they were too true to life for capeshit.
Mr. Mind (A literal talking caterpillar) visits the main villain of the film in prison and tells him he can help him attain more power
I thought they were a little gratuitous. I thought it was weird when they had Billy fuck his foster mom in the ass
better or worse than Captain Marvel
It had great backstory value thou.
Not OP, but: leagues better, CM is barely a movie.
Miles better and wholesome as fuck
Why do you watch anti-art reddit meme movies?
>DC decided in 2012 to just start calling him Shazam
This practice began LONG before 2012

Ladies(trannies) and Gentlemen(Incels), /ourguy/ finally is here.
BASED
nope, he was still called Captain Marvel in the stories, cartoons and even the TV show
Mary herself is PERFECT and cute, I wish they used the same actress as her Mary Marvel version. It would have been PERFECT!!!!
Base Mary was good and cute and characterized decently well; Mary Marvel is still attractive, but not as; also Mary Marvel doesn't do much compared to the other members of the Marvel/Shazam family.
Mid-credits was Mr. Mind, actual post-credits was an extended version of the Aquaman/talking fish scene at the end of the international trailer.
