I mean I'm not a "size matters" person by any strech, but when the villian looks like he takes shits bigger than the hero, there's a problem.
Edit: Just saw the trailer. I take back everything.

That trailer is better than anything DC has put out.
Originally I didn't buy Chuck as Captain Marvel but them steroids are magic.
I thought Dr Sivanna was just a small guy who used mind controlling worms? f*** it I'll allow the creative license.
Also The Rock is producing the movie so Black Adam at least gets a cameo.

Well I'm sold on this and on Aquaman. I haven't bothered with any DCEU films besides WW yet, this new batch has my attention though.

That looks fun as hell. See, DC? Amazing what can happen when you throw the Snyder playbook out the window.

Oh my god, post-Snyder DC looks wonderful. Hope, optimism, daylight, full color saturation. This is what they need.

Ok, between this and how thrilling that Aquaman trailer felt, that Titans trailer looks even more dated. This is the right tone for a property like Shazam.

This looks ok. Anybody know when they're gonna release the Snyder Cut of this?

I'm in. Looks like it has real potential. It feels a bit like a less edgelord Kick-Ass.
So has DC phased out the Captain Marvel name altogether now? How does that even work? He can't even say his own name now without transforming?
Y'know, on that note, why does ANYONE else know the name Shazam? Wouldn't that be a word Billy would keep super-secret? I mean, I get why someone like Black Adam would know it, because he knew the actual guy Shazam, but unless they were standing around when he cried it out, how would anyone even know it?

I'm all in on this movie. Not so sold on Aquaman, though. Something about that trailer fell flat for me.

My boy Fandral got done dirty in Ragnarok, so at least Zachary Levi is getting the chance to take front stage as a hero this time around. I'm cautiously optimistic with this, since Suicide Squad also had a good trailer. Also I want that "Humble" remix YESTERDAY.
EDIT: Oh, and one more thing...looks like this may be categorized as a Christmas movie, yay!

Wasn't it kind of a running joke in the 90s comics that Captain Marvel Jr couldn't say his own name without transforming, since his magic words were "Captain Marvel", and called himself "CM3"? So now they've just transferred that awkwardness to the main character instead?

A DC movie that isn't miserable as all hell.....
I just hope it's humour is well balanced
But saying that DCEU's movie trailers were good and all but "Wonder Woman" turned out shit

I know nothing about this property other than Billy Batson yells Shazam to transform, but this looks like it’s a lot of fun.

But saying that DCEU's movie trailers were good and all but "Wonder Woman" turned out shit Is this actually true? I remember Suicide Squad's trailer being a total snow job, making the movie look like a fun, madcap romp when it was really a dark, dreary, poorly edited mess. But I remember the BVS trailer being horrible and for MOS I could never get past Pa Kent's "you should let children die to protect your secret" line. Were they actually well received in general though?
