The Wrap puts some of the blame for Shazam 2's failure at Dwayne Johnson's feet, as the Black Adam star reportedly vetoed ideas that would have seen Zachary Levi's Shazam cameo in Black Adam's post-credits scene or Justice Society characters appear in Shazam! Fury of the Gods' post-credits scene.

Does WB really need to make The Rock a scapegoat for this movie flopping? This just seems lame. |

Dwayne Johnson seems like a douche and I'm glad his movie bombed in hilarious fashion. |

Dwayne Johnson seems like a douche and I'm glad his movie bombed in hilarious fashion. The only thing Dwayne has ever done wrong in his entire life was invoke Paul Walker's name disrespectfully in his feud with Vin Diesel not really sure what else you think he's done wrong that you think he's a douche. |

$65 million already for a film that was released last Friday? That's a flop to you?

$65 million already for a film that was released last Friday? That's a flop to you? $125m budget plus millions more in marketing (one figure I saw somewhere said that the marketing was at least $50m). Weak opening weekend (typically the biggest weekend), and word of mouth is that's it's a dud, which will likely lead to a big dropoff. The movie probably won't crack $200m worldwide, and theaters will keep at least a third of that. It's a flop. And keep in mind, I liked the movie and wish it had done better. |

When Marvel movies are disappointing, what did they expect from a middling DC movie? They should've gone bigger and darker. And marketed.

True but I think this one needed to be the Empire Strikes Back of the trilogy. Up the stakes and give people a reason to come back for 3. |

Okay I just watched this movie and I'm confused as to what was so bad about it. I enjoyed it. So can anyone out there tell me what was wrong with it? I welcome views as to why this movie was apparently so awful to everyone???
