lmao that backtracking he posted on twitter, out of of context my ass. No director should fricking post "I was expecting it to flop" when the movie it's still out in theaters
its complicated. sure, it goes against professionalism 101. but in this situation, this DC universe that shazam exists in is already canonically deader than dead.
Just assuming here but Sandberg really likes Shazam and I think not only having The Rock shit on the IP but also having it announced that a reboot is happening after the movie anyway is really shitty
I googled "Dwayne Johnson Shazam" to see if you were right and I'm remembering wrong but the entire front page of Google is multiple occasions of the rock shitting on Shazam
"Shazam is a homosexual and probably a troony, Black Adam represent Black Power and I will be the centerpeice of the DC universe going forward. I am going to make a movie where I beat the shit out of Superman. Frick Shazam" - Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

i remember that. i think it was in the Variety interview. he also made some sus comments about 'hollywood israelites'
Is just Cinemaphile autistic morons. He never said anything like that. He did wanted black Adam to stand in its own and not to be just the bad guy for the most childish DC movie character so far. DC choose to make Shazam a comedy movie and that doesn't mix well with a bad guy that disemboweled enemies
Mental illness is a status symbol among the far left. He doesn't have autism he has extreme narcissism. & a director behaving this way to the public after being entrusted with 100 million is a sign of societal collapse, nepotism, and clown world. They hand these productions to total morons who feed the trolls and depict weakness.

no wonder shazam went woke by race swatting the parents and making captain marvel an idiot and loser in the sequel so that strong wyman can save the day.
It tells a complete Shazam story and works as an actual movie? please don't tell me the memes about capeshit frickers only caring about the postcredit scenes are true.
Why is the movie flopping? Last one was decent for capeshit and it was the style normalgays loved. This looks more of the same. Has capeshit fatigue finally started?
Why are we blaming The Rock? He just wanted a solo movie. Or are saying that Shazam is nothing without Black Adam for a villain? Or that Shazam is nothing without The Rock as a cameo? Is that it?
Either way The Rock has nothing to do with this movie flopping. He wasn't involved with the production of it. The director and the producers could have still made a successful movie without The Rock involvement. They didn't. Simple as.
why would anyone hire him again when he doesnt even care about the final product? all he cares about is money.
Who says he didn't? This is about box office, not movie quality.

Yeah but that's why he's /our/guy.
speak for yourself, redditgay
sounds like kvetching to me
He’s talking about the movie flopping financially not the quality itself
Why would he care, it's a literal who superhero movie on a dead franchise, I wouldn't care either
He did his job and got paid, that's all that matters
I'm sure companies are eager to hire someone that publicly stated that they don't care whether the product they work on won't sell
its complicated. sure, it goes against professionalism 101. but in this situation, this DC universe that shazam exists in is already canonically deader than dead.
Why wasn't it a surprise to him?
What a chad.
The whole Gunn debacle in the background, I assume.

The Rock never shit on Shazam and even said the Black Adam was going to meet him as well.

All unsubstantiable hearsay. Show me an actual quote from him.

The Rocks DC movie flopped too though
The Rock definitely shit on Shazam. The Rock refuses to play a villain that can lose. He denies Shazam his most iconic villain
Based.
What's the deal with scandinavians and autism? same with Notch. At least hope this guy doesn't get divorced and half his money gone.
Scandis have that kind of personality

Their society encourages apathetic and antisocial behaviour

Dismal? Does that mean good?
The DCEU was cancelled, so why should fans show up to the last 2 or 3 movies? What’s the point?
Movie could be good even if it doesn't further your need to have an endgame objective to the consumption of media beyond entertainment
I agree with that. However, when you lame duck something you automatically tell people to stay away

he gets emasculated pretty hard in the trailer, not really something I want to see.

Holy shit, bob shut the frick up.
