Black Adam is One of The WORST DC Films EVER Made 

this just confirmed that your spirit animal is a honey badger

"black" adam. cmon bro, its 2023. you know better...

the Rock's contract doesn't allow him to lose a fight or be criticized

Sometimes, 3 times isn’t always the charm. I can already smell F10, whenever that dumpster fire is coming out.

At this point, just not liking a shit movie is considered hate speech. Hate speech as a general concept is ridiculous to begin with, especially when the elites can decide to cash anything they don't like hate speech. And normies believe that shit every single time

100%. He works with quality directors and doesn’t insist on being the big dog on set. He’s without ego, which is why he keeps getting cast. Daniel Craig liked him so much working with him in Spectre that he recommended him for Glass Onion. Batista is crushing it!

DB cant act if his life depended on it.

@@xcidgaf that may be true but lol he is a better actor than dj

Jack Black (Carl Denham from King Kong) is a young and fit Ben Grimm! Dave Bautista is . . . The Thing!! No cgi, real costume and makeup like the original FF movies! Because, you know, that’s how Dave would want it!💥😎

Bautista is equally TRASH

Not allowed to show " the rock" in a bad light. It's against his contract

@@KrolKazit should have been Kevin Hart as black Adam 😂😂

@@paulmajano why cause he black

Funny how he's shown more range as a villain in wrestling than he did in this movie. But he wasn't trying to play a villain, even though Black Adam is known as a villain first before anything.

Well it's the rock what do you expect, he's always himself in every film.

100%

This movie wouldn't have been made if it wasn't For the rock

@@KrolKaz yep. And how well did that work out for them?

@@KrolKaz the movie is worse than watching my dog lay turds

@@KrolKazyeah and they would have saved millions too😂

@@WaldemarPerezJr Irony being, if he did those things, the audience could suspend their disbelief enough to accept his commitment. He's just not serious, and I've never understood the appeal. Sidenote - did you hear that he allegedly wants to be cast as the MCU's Luke Cage? 😬

None of you experts could sh*t out a script or an idea to save your lives. The Rock's failure his less that 1/10th of anybody's career accomplishment on this thread. LOL! He may have over estimated his game, but at least he had game.

He wanted a Rock DC franchise out of the movie like the FF Franchise movie Hobbs and Shaw 😂

The Dwayne C U 🤷🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

@@WaldemarPerezJr Definitely requires talent. There's plenty of determined people trying to make movies....and they suck. So you can be as determined as you want. But if you have no talent in said field you'll be just like every other determined game developer that nobody cares about. You actually sound like one of those hollyweirdos with a massive ego.

I hope DC becomes less dark and gritty now

@@yurichtube1162 Honestly I hope it becomes so light and silly that it flops again and again and again just so it blow right back at James Gunn's face.

@@JackSkyblue so... you want DC movies to (kinda) suck forever, and never have a consistent universe that builds up to something?

@@blazeswithwolvez7221 Warner Bros. would need to spend a considerable amount of money to create a new DC Universe, and it would be unwise to reboot the franchise after only a few years. It would be advisable to wait at least eight to ten years so that people can view the films with fresh eyes and an open mind. The eight-year gap between Batman & Robin and Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy proved to be beneficial for the latter.

@@JackSkyblue it would have made much more sense for DC to not have a cinematic universe at all. I don't think Man of Steel was "dark and gritty" it was different but it was carrying through the Nolan style of grounded Batman but with an alien and asking questions of the audience about how people would be (rather than everyone just sort of accepting Superman.) I prefer an intelligent (or attempted intelligent) and a different vision and people act like Superman was some sort of anti-hero in the movies, he wasn't. It was his environment that was more grounded (as much as one can be with Kryptonians flying about.) DC once had something to offer. Man of Steel should have been its own universe but no Wonder Woman unless they were going to have Amazonians be descended from Kryptonian explorers. By diving back into the Flash, Aquaman, etc. it's just back to being silly comic book stuff so I do understand people who want a different tone for Justice League stuff (although I thought parts of the Snyder versions were a better serious take.)

his people*

Hahah

Again…planning. Do things in order. We got to such a messy place where we’re like oooh this character ooh this one…can we get a solid Supes trilogy going? Can we establish the Trinity first? I agree Fate was great but order and structure.

Hawkman for me was the best Character, I think they nerfed Dr Fate to hard...

Exactly. But "anybody" can be Dr Fate - they just throw on the helmet and commiserate with Nabu. hopefully Fate can come back

I liked both Dr. Fate and Hawkman in this movie.

@@RNvideosedits They de-powered him to make Black Adam look better. He could have bested Black Adam and the main villain with his powers.

Right. Maybe not pure evil to that extreme but having him be ruthless and maliciously enjoying the violence

Hopefully with Henry Cavill is gone we can get a "BrightBurn2"...

@@strettoasino9006 how was henrry cavil stopping us from getting a brightburn 2?

your comment proves you don't know the character and are just repeating other hater comments. The movie captures exactly how the character is written in modern times, especially the 52 storyline that the movie is mostly based off. See, you can always spot a loud mouth phony who is so insecure he will literally repeat other nonsense to feel part of the crowd.

Nah, I would say these things are not written to sell and the better show runners like Russo Bros, Christopher McQuarrie cannot be tapped to direct these films and better writers aren't paid. This was nothing more than a missed opportunity and a rush job (it should've been in SHAZAM! As should the Cavill teaser, but the brand stunk, and Superhero films were watered down and oversaturated so by the time DC got off its ass and put out movie, you had radioactive psychos Ezra Miller and Amber Heard still stuck in delayed films .. its a mess - The Hollow empty thing is from uninspired or controlled filmmakers just checking boxes and not creating better stories.

That one and fucking Immigrant Song. My brain still just implodes into disgust when I remember Shrek 3.

It was so corny. Though, that could be said about the entire film...

Technically he's a major villain in DC Comics (except in the 52 which this character is more based off of), not just to Captain Marvel/ Shazam. It helps to read comics.

@@Andulvar I love how that has nothing to do with what i said lmaoo when i say secondary i mean that out of the 2 if your going to create a "universe" for one then it would be Shazam because hes the central character in their story and Black Adam is the antagonist in THEIR story obviously to the entire DC universe hes a major villian but this like saying you want to make a movie series based off Doctor Doom instead of the Fantastic Four...

shazam is not even the focal point of DC and he wanted Black Adam to be there at the center...

@@keshi5541 shut up kid he's not the focal point. Nor will he ever be soooooo...shut yer butt.

The problem is that he isn't secondary, you're literally hating the movie and passing grand judgement on the most arbitrary and ridiculous point. Not to mention that you're wrong if you even knew the comics, he has his own title and several storylines outside of Shazam, he has been his own character for over a decade which proves you are just an ignorant hater passing little knowledge that is wrong as fact and motivation.

True. Maybe he returns with it sometime down the line - he also had pointed ears which disappeared, I think?

All they had to do was put him in, but I think the saw DC crumbling and tried to shoehorn their deal in.. and it flopped, as did The Suicide Squad (despite "critical acclaim")

They tried saying the same thing “you can’t have a Venom movie without Spider-Man,” look how successful that was. Unfortunately lightning didn’t strike twice with Black Adam, which is what they were hoping for.

@@Bingo_the_Pug with Venom they already established the character in Spider-Man. The Venom we got was the PG-13 Venom. They should have made Venom rated R like a horror movie. After he lost the Spider-Man he disappeared

​@@SuperOmnicronsj44A new report by The Wrap, Dwayne Johnson wasn't interested in appearing in Shazam. For a long time, it was speculated that The Rock hated the goofy character of Shazam. As a result, he strived to keep Zachary Levi's hero and his anti-hero separate, going so far as to not even a cameo in the first Shazam film. DC has bowed to The Rock and key him do what he wants

No it was made to set up the bigger fight with Shazam! and Superman! and it should've been a debut in Shazam, but DC was impatient, as was Rock and they jumped the gun. Dwayne fans are movie fans as he is a movie star - he just isn't a lead - he should've been in an ensemble piece like Shazam! then later on in Suicide Squad as the protagonist or Justice League - he rushed his film. As you said, what a waste. There are franchises that have made millions out of punches in face - Transformers are up to chapter 8 as is Fast and Furious.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 transformers is dead, Hasbro milked that cow to death. The fourth film should have been enough, FAF should have only had 2. Yeah they are money makers but you cant refund your cinema ticket if the film sucks ass.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 Fast and Furious is at chapter 9 actually. Lol

Jack Black is amazing, isn't he? I cannot wait to hear more of his Bowser voice in Super Mario Bros.

@@JinxTheLooneyToon915 I love Jack Black. He's hilarious.

@@j.j.plagiarisms7149 Jack Black 🎶WAAAAAIT, WAAAAIT, YOU MOTHERFUCKAAAAAAH🎶

That's it that's rocks ingredient. Put jack black in every future rock movie and it will be better. Every future movie company: Write this down write this down

@@rayvonvelez3129 That plus finally giving him the damn veggies.

Feige has made Disney Marvel multiple billions. Something DC hasn't done.

Bro its actually better than few os mcu movies.. Especially Thor movies

Director and in this case actor ego. I mean are you really surprised an extended universe with Zack Snyder spearheading it would be sustainable?

Big oof

Some things you just have to ignore. Like, how does Thanos speak perfect English when he wasn’t even born on Earth? It doesn’t matter.

@@Bingo_the_Pug I think we can forgive an advanced Alien Warlord for having some kind of translator technology

If you actually paid attention to the movie he loses the ability to speak English. The powers of Shazam give the bearer extended knowledge and allows the person to learn and speak foreign languages - it is literally from the comics. If you paid attention he doesn't speak English at first, he speaks his native language when freed, only after hearing the language does he pick up on it and he speaks very little of it, once he renounces his powers he goes back to actually speaking what he actually knows - minus the powers. I guess you thought you were clever about that but no, you're just ignorant with comprehension issues.

Except the grooming, stealing alcohol kidnapping a teen ... Centino didn't copy that part. I cant believe that ass hat Miller still going to be in the Flashpoint and yet no definitive word was put out as to "he will no longer be in the DCEU"

I am so glad I wasn't the only one who hated Noah Centineo as Atom Smasher. I rolled my eyes any time he was on screen 💀

The animated version of the Flash also acts exactly like him. This is nothing like the comic version of the Flash.

He is an annoying reminder of Barry Allen and ant man smashed in one ...shit

He said "one of the worst". So he is in line with these disasterpieces.

@@mala6238 I know, but I'm just saying.

@@darthprime1990 👍

It's not a masterpiece but it's not as bad as he makes it sound. Lol

@Jimmy Jam that what I'm saying. Like why are people coming at comic movies like their supposed to be this big epic art piece to make you think differently about other things. All the ones that have"bombed" had some type of message being pushed. I'm just saying it's good to just get a good I'm gonna whopp everyone's ass movie.

I always think of it as two egomaniacs fighting each other for control of the franchise. Since F&F is practically Vin's own franchise and brings in serious cash, he can't afford to let it die. The Rock wanted a franchise of his own and tried to take more and more control of F&F, got into a fight with Diesel, and was ultimately booted off. Ironically I dislike Vin more here as he essentially used Paul to keep his franchise going even after his death, and there's no way The Rock would've lost a fight with him in F&F5, which makes me think it was Vin himself who got that part written in.

No, that was going to be a straight up fight - then they would've teamed up .. thing is, he needed to be a villain and it would've been a different perspective on him, it also would've been a better protagonist with him going against Zachary Levi in SHAZAM! THEN Cavil showing up.

The guy just is good with crowds, but isn't a lead actor - just needs to do ensemble features. One thing he could stand to do is get a series and rebrand his drama chops ... something like that would be very good for him rather than trying to knock everything out of the park.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 unfortunately his ego must be in crappy action films. Like him holding a helicopter down with a chain in that Hobbs film 😂😂😂😂

Right imagine how bad ur movie had to be so worst superman become the best part of ur movie 🤣

@@Dikbeeg Yup! It was painful sitting through that thing. I don't even remember breaking a smile

He's better in ensemble films. I think he has to get back to basics... probably back to comedy, etc.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 With his trusty sidekick Kevin Hart.

lowkey lmao, don’t get me wrong, ofc it’s not the best but i def enjoy the movie

Same, imo this is one of the best movies DC has put out in several years

@@hearts4mikey that’s sad that you agree it’s not good but better than what they’ve been putting out so in your sheep head you call it good

@@El_Gallo_De_Oro You are so chronically online its embarrassing 💀

The film is obviously made for a younger audience man. It's bad but it's obviously just supposed to be a dumb popcorn filler movie.

That's what made Black Adam differemt. The Rock actually played the character instead of himself.

I guess you enjoy mediocrity

@@El_Gallo_De_Oro everything is I mediocre at this point. Mcu is more cheese than this lets be honest

@@rtime4269 exactly 💯

@lee totally respect and agree wit your comment.. it's annoying when they always bring this box office hit crap about movies(which I get..since they do need to make their money back or whatever..but that's not my main concern,when watching a film)

I liked it too. I didn't think it was too bad

He was ok in the Wahlberg movie Michael Bay did. He can rebound and do something else . will take some time, but he's not a lead. Great guy in the public, its a shame he couldn't quite get the writers.

His relationship to Atom Smasher was integral to Adam's story arc in the comics. So they didn't just randomly choose "grow big guy," they just didn't use him right.

@@WompaStompaCyn Atom Smasher was just one big case of Nepotism. How were they gonna make him likeable in this age of Nepo babies?

Dude Reeves SFX were HORRIFIC. That does not carry over now - ill watch Man of Steel again and again - 1978 Superman is OVERRATED as hell. Too much is made about that - it was good FOR ITS TIME. Basically Superman is HARD TO WRITE FOR that's why there were so many delays about its creation.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 I like old school sfx like that , Cavill never really was superman to me honestly.

Funny thing is ..why did it work for Tom Holland and not for this guy? Because his film flopped. Holland's didn't and people still have the same annoyance with his characterisation , he just was in hits and Centino wasn't.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 it doesn't work for holland. Holland is annoying like it stated but certain people will watch a Spiderman fan either way.

Aw ok so you missed all the slave scenes

Yes it had scenes like that but like I said it seemed more focused on action scenes and Black Adam trying to crack one liners. I do like the twist at the end where he's not actually the hero and that it was really his son.

Right i was sympathizing so much with cavil when he lasered a huge ship and crashed it in to middle of the city killing hundreds 🤡

@@Dikbeeg Given how that Superman is young and just starting out he is not yet the superhero we're all accustomed to. So of course he's not going to be as shall we say refined.

@@Imakeplaylists-in1pw aww 30 yr old grown man still learining that if he drops a ship on ppl they would die .snyder fans are a embarsment

Since the movie covers the 'Flashpoint' storyline, and introduces different versions of heroes, its a good place to do the universe reboot, since the time travel story literally reboots history itself. That being said, it will need even more reshoots to actually properly destroy the old DCU...

Apparently, Ezra Miller was offered to reprise his role as the Flash for Gunn's DCU, alongside Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman and Zachary Levi as Shazam.

Its not copyright, its hate speech, and I'm disappointed you couldn't find it after two watching's, but I guess the 'intellectually deficient' are not a group that you care about - 24:02

No he doesn't. The lightning is magical in nature. He could be hundreds of feet underground and it would still work. Have you even read a comic? All he has to do is say Shazam.

@@Andulvar then maybe it were other interpretations that I saw

But I mean, ya'll said you hated Zack Snyder's movies & wanted THAT type of mediocre, colorful, fun bullsh*t, soooo.... 🤷🏻‍♀️🙄 Careful what you wish for. Between this, and James Gunn's Suicide Squad, I have zero faith in what's coming next. We went from movies like Man of Steel & the 1st Wonder Woman... To films like WW1984 & Black Adam. Needless to say, it wasn't an improvement. But it's what a lot of you people asked for. So I don't feel sorry for anybody who wasted their money on this schlock, cuz its what ya'll asked for. People wanted gimmicky, Marvel-lite type of content, instead of ZSJL. 😆🤡 LMAO So now you're all gonna KEEP getting it. Good fortune to you.

Batgirl. it never even saw a release. That's how bad it was.

I managed 15 minutes of Birds of Prey. It's just feminist fantasy & misandry for laughs.

The only thing I remember about Birds of Prey was Joker and Harley Quinn breaking up.

Best part(s) of Birds of Prey was Ewan McGregor’s performance as Black Mask. You can tell he was having a blast playing a sadistic gangster and it shows. Everyone else was forgettable & phoning it in for the paycheck. I wish they didn’t kill him off in the end, but it doesn’t matter now.

Cavil is flopped embarssment

@@Dikbeeg No that is Dwayne, Erza and Amber.

@@JustTooDamnHonest those 3 too

Nope. Even before that snap. He was not sunshine and rainbows. He was doom and gloom from the get go. And that is out of character for Superman. Even father Kent was a pessimist who told him not to save people and that was the most egregious character assassination I have ever seen on screen of a comic book character.

Out of character? So you'd prefer if he let Zod murder all of those people including kids? Apparently you think that's more in character for superman?

😂

its amazing how he gets CHEERS wherever he goes .. how cool he is with fans in general. I dont know what it is with Hollywood, but they can make who they want popular easily.

He kissings the right people’s ass

Yes, they lead to no characterisation, no Henry Cavill no fan satisfaction. Just frustration to rant but no real solving of the problem which is better entertainment. All people can do is just tear down everything. what a crap fest Hollywood has become.

One of things that makes Namor better, is that Tenoch Huerta (the actor who plays Namor) doesn’t have a contract that’s says he can’t lose a fight. The reason The Rock can’t lose a fight is because of his F&F contract says he can’t.

his arc COULD have been the bad guy in SHAZAM! then reformed and basically joining the Justice League as a means of convenience against a greater threat. Brainiac (Injustice 2) or along those lines. But DC couldn't build the brand with enough consecutive hits and very few people knew Black Adam. Just a rush job of a poorly conceived story and they thought "star power" would do the rest.

@@SuperOmnicronsj44 Well knowing some things about him I expected him to be a villain but I really like him this way, the antihero (or whatever its called). Personally I would love them to replace that kid Shazam with him, got damn I hate those movies. Perhaps I am getting older but I really don't enjoy kids or grown up people acting like kids. Also the sharing of power and the kids team now. Just give me BA acting badass as the Shazam character.

Yeah, can he direct a film for DC now?

Not a good actor at all, just likable. The Rock basically plays the Rock in every film and when you pay your $12 you’re paying to see the same old shtick. That and him throwing Joe Rogan under the bus to satisfy the woke mob on Twitter and has caused me to lose any respect or interest in him. He’s a 280 lb coward afraid to do anything that may cause people to criticize him. Another Hollywood shill.

Thing is .. he's pretty cool with fans, and were herded into watching social justice warriors type actors in films we LOATHE as well ! Rock is actually decent with the fan base. He should've been in the Shazam film as the villain, but he couldn't wait and Jungle Cruise flopped and he thought he'd get over with Black Adam. Oh well.

boy not everybody thinks the same way, why is it that people feel the need to make other people look bad for liking a specific type of movie, Dwayne is ok and is good with the fans idk about you though.

Doesn't matter, Mr. JOHNSON is part of the protective class due to the levels of melanin in his skin. Those with less melanin must handle him with kid gloves otherwise it will hurt his feelings.

.... what? White boy tears are hilarious.

@@KrolKazoh stfu people don’t love the rock because his skin has enough “melanin” give me a break. He’s a charismatic and comes off as a decently humble/kind guy. People love Keanu even more and is definitely protected yet he’s white as a ghost

@@KrolKaz another racist

Lol

Yeah, they had options for that sequel, and still could've kept Steve Trevor - as himself. Just get rid of the wishing plotline and bring in the Greek Gods. Didn't they have a budget for that? Cersei is too out of synch with the mainstream? Fine, then bring another Amazon - Nubia to offset Diana... maybe have the plot be to try to bring Diana back to Themyscira or something. The second movie lacked starpower and Barbara Minerva was miscast - Charlize Theron wasn't available?
