    Default Black Adam



    Trailer looks super cool, if its done animation style like the movie 300, my ticket is sold.

    Duane Johnson seems really passionate about the character to, should be good.

    I wonder if The Rock is willing to let Adam be a jerk. Kinda a big part of Adam's character, but I don't recall many, if any movies, in which Rock was anything other than a muscle bound teddy bear (to non bad guys).

    It seems like they're trying to stuff too much into this. Heard the JSA will show up and this has been in development so long now. Hope this doesn't become a disaster.

    I just read the 52 main story, and the defense/ eventual warof Khandaq can definitely be an angle to run with. Makes Adam look heroic for most the movie, then have a sweet ass heel turn at the climax

    Oh I'm not worried about this. Dwayne Johnson has been spearheading this for a while. He's one of the producers and I'm guessing one of the people responsible, for Shazam even happening. Or at least, he has enough clout to decide storyline direction. It was his edict that they use Shivana instead of Black Adam, since he figured you'd have to do an origin story for both and with it being Shazam's movie one of those origin's would suffer. And I frankly don't mind that. If a villain is supposed to be a big deal, either seed him slowly throughout several movies, or, give him his (or her) own movie.

    I hadn't heard about the JSA, but if that's true I'm still not worried, its still Black Adam's movie and Johnson will make it all come together. He seems very passionate about this so I'm sure he's taking great care to make sure it isn't a mess.

    Wasn't he the villain in that Get Smart movie about a decade ago?

    I forgot about that. But even as the villain, he was kinda a nice guy.

    Black Adam, really isn't.

    IMO, it's the same issue we saw with Will Smith playing Deadshot. He might technically be an anti-hero, but he was never willing to risk offending the audience/fans.

    He was also the villain in the Doom movie.

    I mentioned that but no one noticed.


    Wasn't there another vid on FanDome that showed him fighting the JSA a bit or something?

    Well, the teaser trailer made it seem like he'll be as unapologetic about his actions as Black Adam is in the comics at the very least.

    I'm curious how they'll justify him releasing the seven deadly sins.

    Why would they do that? Shazam already had them as villains

    Kandaq: We need a hero.

    Black Adam: It doesn't matter what you think you need.
