SHAZAM DIRECTOR comments on the movie FLOPPING..OH NO NO NO NO NO

In a (NOW DELETED) Reddit comment from Shazam! Fury of the God’s director, David F. Sandberg , revealed the filmmaker’s reaction to the movie’s underwhelming performance.

After a commenter tagged the Shazam! director in a Reddit thread reporting on box office numbers, Sandberg admitted

>“No worries. It's not like this comes as a surprise. I saw where this was heading a long time ago. I'll be alright though. I got paid all my money upfront [smiley emoji].”

It's over...

      There's nothing indicating that he's a heeb but it's weird to me how easy it is for him to get movie deals and how candid he is with no fear of consequences. Seems weird for just some guy from Jönköping who made a viral youtube video.

        he's James Wan's protege and Lights Out made good money for the studio, so he's getting better deals but not a ton. They haven't given him anything bigger than Shazam, which is small compared to most capeshit.

        He said it was filmed before Gunn took over. He has no reason to lie. And I don't think it was Gunn who forced his wife into Black Adam either seeing as he and the Rock were fighting for control behind the scenes.

          But he is lying. Plans only changed after Black Adam flopped and James Gunn took over. Before that the original plan was to hype the JSA movie and spin-offs.
          So a scene that was meant to hype the JSA and was only changed after Gunn took over now has Gunn's wife in it, but was somehow filmed before Black Adam was even released?

          The reason these characters aren't showing anymore is because Black Adam flopped. Black Adam flopped very recently.
          Safran and Gunn also got promoted the same time Black Adam flopped.

      Not a Snyderdrone, in fact I despise Snyder and what he did to DC. That said, it's plain to see Shazoom is a victim of the change in WB management, even though it was mostly finished by that point. As you can see here

      there are elements to the movie that were changed last minute. That's common with most movies, but what isn't common is the introduction of new management during the crucial post production phase.

      The producer of both Shazam movies is Peter Safran who was promoted to be co-leaders of the new DCEU with Gunn. Peter Safran being the 'behind-the-scenes financial' guy with Gunn being the creative.

                Cavill shouldn't be in the majority of the film. Just the final scene. The whole threat of Zod is made worse because there's no Superman to stop him. Flash and Batman go looking for Superman only to find it's Kara and They all lose against Zod. Barry keeps resetting time to try again and they keep failing if it weren't for everything going on behind the scenes I would say this completely justifies everything Superman did in Man of Steel.

                De Luca.

                Walter Hamada was hired because he managed to do the Conjuring cinematic universe for New Lines Cinema on the cheap. Small budget horror movies that did well in the box office.
                Thus Hamada was hired to do small budget DC movies that hopefully would do good box office. Hamada also thought that anything too dark would be a mistake. This is why he hated the idea of Todd Phillips' Joker and tried to stop it.

                Either way Hamada wanted Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck gone. His big idea was that he could replace the male characters for their female variations. Going forward there would be Supergirl, Batgirl, and so on.

                But then Hamada was replaced by David Zaslav. Between the period of Hamada firing and James Gunn hiring, there was the new Warner Bros presidents De Luca and Abdy. De Luca was a fan of Zack Snyder's work and thought it would be good to do some movies to properly end the DCEU. It was De Luca that hired Henry Cavill back.
                What happened is that Black Adam bombed, which had Cavill in it, and then Zaslav went and hired Gunn as a response. Since Gunn doesn't want to share the spotlight with Zack Snyder's stuff Gunn decided to sack everything. Including De Luca's plans of making more movies to properly close the DCEU.

                Whatever Cavill filmed, if he ever did, was never under Hamada's leadership and very late in production. He wasn't even in the finished script, might have been in an early script. Production never started with intent of including Cavill.

                Yeah. He apparently filmed a very small cameo meant to be shown at the very end of the movie and this was when De Luca was controlling things after Hamada got sacked. This is also when he filmed that cameo for Black Adam.

                Either way, if true or not, Cavil won't be in the movie. Either because there wasn't a cameo filmed to begin with or because Gunn cut said cameo from the movie in favor for his own bullshit.

                Hamada didn't want him either, Hamada fired him before The Flash started filming
                Killing of Cavill's Superman and erasing the events of Man of Steel was a business decision rather than narratively motivated, exploiting the plot device of time travel as a tool to erase stuff and please those who didn't like Man of Steel, particularly the critics
                But by the time the film is out you will admit all this but have then moved on to shilling for the upcoming Gunn film and claiming every leak is false with that one too

                They didn't, Zod without Superman and Supergirl instead of Superman was confirmed already seven months ago and you consoomers deemed it fake
                Read the leaks, the film is one third taking a dump at the Snyderverse and course correction, one scizo member berries from the same films they take a dump on, one third Batman into the Batverse, and not about The Flash
                This film is neither for the haters if the Snyderverse (why would they want Zod in there?), the fans of the Snyderverse (why would they want Zod without Superman? Doesn't even work on a cheap member berries level) or the fans of The Flash comics (no The Flash villain)

                No. Cavill got fired, never any plan to bring him back, the plans moving forward was to have him replaced by Supergirl until eventually introduce a bew Superman with a new actor and new lore, this was before Gunn stepped in
                Even your retooled Gunn afterthougt is shitty, cause if this is supposed to be the finale of the Snyderverse and a celebration of it, then whycthe frick isn't Superman, the main character from the first entry, there?

                Even if you hate Snyder its still a shitty film the same way Rise of Skywalker still is a shitty film and a patchwork mess even if you hated Last Jedi
                The Flash is objectively a studio monster patchwork mess, "brainstormed" by a couple of suits in a boardroom rather than being written by writers with passion for the source material

      they want the flash to make money because they know shazam 2 was always going to flop.

Because she's black? And she built her first thing when she was 3? Frick off! If I was the Shuri actress I would sue Marvel's make up guys for making her look like a man during the whole movie.

    The original plan was that the Flash created a world where Michael Keaton is Batman, somehow, and Supergirl exists because Superman died before leaving Krypton. Just ignore that Supergirl never showed up in MoS.
    In the end the Flash would go back in time again to fix his mistakes but that would change very little. Michael Keaton is still Batman and Supergirl still exists. Superman is nowhere and for some reason the Flash receive a message in his computer from Ben Affleck's Batman who's stuck in yet another world.

    Basically a mess of a narrative just because Walter Hamada thought he could replace Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck. Pic related was his big plan.

        No, it stays the same just that there is no continuation
        Superman is still dead, Supergirl is still there, but she is a one and done and wont show up in any sequels
        The genius is that since uts a soft reboot through time travel plot device, basically anything can come after it to trick the consoomer into believing that it was the plan all along. Gunn is aware of this and use The Flash to explain how Superman Legacy can exist together with Suicide Squad, which had clear connections to the Snyderverse (Harley Quinn was in SS, Harley Quinn met Afleck Batman met Cavill Superman)
        From a cynical businessman viewpoint, I have to aplaud Gunn

      Keaton being Batman in an ordinary world just seems moronic. If it's not the Burtonesque goth hellscape I'm not interested. Even more jarring that it's the same universe that a Man of Steel version of Zod could exist, and an Ezra Barry variant apparently.

    Saw Shazam 2 this morning with my wife. To be fair the first one was cute. Kind of a light take on the cape thing. It was enjoyable but not in a "Can't wait until they make 4 more of these" kind of way. It was fun but a simple, standalone story.

    This one just took all the things that worked in the first one and highlighted why they don't scale up to a franchise.

        every movie WB released in 2021 flopped. Even DUNC, which on paper looked like it squeaked past break even, ended up losing money because WB had to pay Legendary like $100 million as a consequence of putting it on HBO max day and date

            Yeah, some like Matrix did worse. Mortal Kombat made 80mil worldwide and they pissed of Nolan so bad with the handling of Tenet he left his very long partnership with the studio. Make no mistake this isn't just a DC problem. It's WB fricking every franchise they have. If it weren't for Batman they wouldn't have had a single hit last year

          That doesnt explain the toys not selling. And certainly doesnt explain why the frick the toys for the first movie are still selling in 2023.

            Why does it matters that toys of Shazam are still selling? Do kids today even play with toys anyways? They all just use TikTok

              I was talking about SS and TSS, moron. And yes the merch is the main income of the movies. Not the box office. Halloween costumes, toys, figures, tshirts, cups, whatever shit.
              SS still sells to this day. TSS never sold. You can make excuses for the box office but you cant make any for the merch. TSS bombed.

          Dune isnt a WB movie, in my country it wasn't distributed by them, here is the kicker, Legendary is a Chinese company, the godzilla and pokemon movies, just like dune are chink movies and WB only gets a small cut from them

    what made the first good is that it was just a dynamic duo of two friends

    if there's a third movie they need to get rid of the extra weight

        I will continue to say that having Black Adam and Shazam not share any screen time is the main reason of the franchises failed at the box office. I'm sure that pissed off a lot casual, Snyder, DC and Shazam fans. They are archnemesis to one another, The Rocks contractual obligations were whack. Him not being able to lose on screen is gay as hell. I would've found another actor to play Black Adam is thats the case.

        While I totally believe that he would have a thing in his contracts saying that he can't lose i would still like to see proof of this
        His ego definitely ruined a few movies though

    It's not fricking fair. These movies were actually good despite some of their shortcomings and managed to actually make jokes and humor that landed because didn't completely ruin the tension of a scene like most MCU shit does.

      Honesty as long as WB holds the rights to DC almost any and all movies involving DC characters are fricked right out the gate.
      1 of the big reasons is WB wanted/still wants Avengers tier crossover material and the money that comes along with it but without the hassle of building up the characters over a series of movies.
      Another reason is WB cannot help itself to arbitrarily change shit in perfect fine plotlines always thinking it'll be better when 99% of the time its shit.

      Think the golden cherry on top of this shit is WB wants to pull the same shit Diseny is pulling with everything is canon because of Multiverse but they're applying their own buttfricking moronation by applying flashpoint frickery to everything.
