Shazam!
my son dreamt of a better world that's why he saved me
the hero
i just got goosebumps
come with us
it's a glorious world out there
waiting for you
Welcome back everyone this will be my black adam trailer video we totally smell what the
rock is cooking there's a whole bunch of easter eggs here they also changed up what's happening
with dc movies this year i'll explain what's going on with that what the release schedule
is during the video too if you're brand new to the channel be sure to subscribe to get
all the videos when we get a little bit closer i will do a ticket giveaway for the actual movie
they wound up delaying all the dc movies by a couple months and switching around some of the
later ones because they finished filming aquaman 2 really late in the timeline and they weren't going
to have enough time to finish special effects so they needed like an extra couple months for that
so instead of swapping some of the other movies they just delayed everything by a couple months
to give everybody a couple extra months to do special effects and they bumped up shazam too
so we're actually getting shazam 2 at the end of the year i think it actually makes more sense to
have the black adam movie in the shazam 2 movie really close together because even though they're
not going to be a ton of crossover between those two movies like they have to set up black adam for
the first time in that first black adam movie and then the plot of shazam 2 fury of the gods is all
about them fighting a version of the gods family where they get some of their powers from like the
shazam acronym is a bunch of the gods that they draw their power from they're fighting the family
of one of those gods atlas we'll probably get some sort of post credit scene in either black adam or
in shazam 2 that will tease their big crossover with shazam versus black adam and that'll happen
in like the next movies after these two movies don't worry you're going to get to see black adam
pound the shazamly something fierce naturally you see black adams powers and they're meant
to look very similar to shazam's powers because they all draw their power from the same place
even the shazam characters got costume upgrades to make their costume look closer to black adam's
costume like they all got upgrades all around but obviously they want all their costumes black adam
and the shazamly costumes to look similar because all their powers come from the same place the only
real difference between black adam and the other shazam characters is black adam doesn't share
his ability the way that the shazam character shares his ability with the rest of the shazamly
that's why in a one-on-one fight black adam can totally beat the crap out of shazam it's when the
entire shazamly fights black adam that's when he's in trouble if he fought them all one at a
time it'd be like that funny video the person going around slapping everyone one at a time
larry what the hell are you doing sorry barrett you can't just oh lovely oh are you all right
the whole thing in the black adam movie obviously is just establishing the justice league inside the
dceu establishing who black adam is because he's usually portrayed as an anti-hero like he's kind
of a villain but he also helps the heroes at times and the reason why they're going with the justice
society instead of the traditional justice league is because most the time in the comics black adam
has been associated more with the justice society characters also they're trying to introduce as
many new groups inside the dc eu as possible and this is meant to be connected to the traditional
dceu the justice league line of movies i know there's always a question about what's
continuity what's not continuity what's going on with the multiverse because in the flash movie
everything is supposed to become candid through the multiverse the same way that they just did
in doctor strange too i could do this all day i understood that reference i know you're all
asking who the actual villain is in the black adam movie because we don't really see him that
much they kind of hint at what's going on with the villain because they want somebody to come
off as black adam you have to have somebody who's even worse supposedly the villain in the film is
going to be the sabacc character who's a demon in the comics and the way they're playing him in the
character is that it's actually going to be like a human avatar who has very shazam similar powers
only they come from a demon instead of the way the shazam characters and black adam get their powers
from gods in the trailer footage where you see this floating crown inside a tomb that's meant to
be the crowd of sabok it's supposed to hold some special power that the villain is trying to obtain
that will help turn him into this crazy op big bad that the rest of the justice league even black
adam will have trouble fighting and his forces are essentially just destroying the entire region
around conduct and that's why black adam wants to kill him and get rid of him which is a very comic
book thing black adam basically getting rid of the current leadership in conduct and then
taking over rulership himself which is why you don't see him interacting with a lot of justice
league characters because he spends most of his time ruling over his country of conduct
you see a bunch of footage of hawkman in his stanigarian nth metal armor and some of his
abilities all these interiors of the ship here with all this technology that's all meant to be
thanegarian technology the younger characters are meant to be cyclone and adam smasher i think adam
smasher is going to be like one of the subsequent versions of the character because his costume
looks very old-timey like it's old tech that he just picks up and uses supposedly because they're
very long-lived hawkman and dr fate used to be on this old version of the justice society something
really went off the rails with their team a bunch of them died they're the only survivors in present
day and then the newer members come onto the team and they sort of reform this new version
so i believe this part of the trailer where they're sitting in the chair and they're talking
about how cool this is all going to be everything is so weird that's inside the justice society's
mansion they'll probably be a bunch of easter eggs for that old version of the team if they
don't have a ton of flashbacks like all these artifacts inside the justice society's mansion
they do kind of have a version of the justice society on the star girl tv show and they kind
of tease the similar thing too where they go to this old mansion that used to be the justice
society's headquarters and they have all these old artifacts of former team members and you have
this whole idea with hawkman and dr fate trying to get black adam's help because it looks like
sarah shahi's character who's going to be playing a version of his love interest from the comics
you all know who i'm talking about youtube has a weird thing about saying her name
because they completely confuse it with the big terrorist group but that's who she's playing she's
the person who frees black adam inside this tomb it's the prison that the wizard shazam trapped
him in 5 000 plus years ago when he went off the rails you get a little bit of his backstory like
they kind of explained why it is that he went so crazy and i think in service of portraying him as
more of an anti-hero the way they'll explain it in this movie is that you didn't get the whole story
like the wizard shazam told the story about how they chose wrongly and he freed the seven deadly
sins and all these people wound up dying the way they explained it in some of the other trailers
that they've released is that in the past black adam was born into slavery and it looks like
they wind up killing his family in front of his eyes and that sort of drives him mad however they
explain it in this movie he winds up gaining the powers of shazam there's a bit of trickery
in the way that he gains the powers in the comics like he kind of steals the powers of shazam
but he sees his family die he wants revenge and he sees all this terrible stuff happening so he
wants to get rid of all these people and it sounds like the seven deadly sins take advantage of that
and convince him to free them and they're the ones that wind up killing everybody
and black adam doesn't really care that much about the collateral damage like he's just happy to kill
the people who he thought were responsible for the death of his family and i believe during the
movie version what they're gonna say is it's the seven deadly sins who wound up killing
the council of wizards who were ruling in the rock of eternity except for the wizard shazam
like he survived and then trapped black adam to prevent something like that from happening again
but all the indiana jones stuff that you see going on in the characters the reason why they would
be looking around all these ancient tombs in this area is because they are looking for the crown of
sabac they're not specifically looking for black adam himself he just also happens to be nearby in
tying this to black adam versus superman because the rock has been trying to do a black adam versus
superman project for so long it just sounds like there's so much going on in this movie i don't
expect a ton of superman in it for those of you wanting henry cavill to come back as superman this
is like the best shot for it the rock has so much power relative to the black adam character that he
can tell warner brothers hey i want to use henry cavill superman so with all the craziness with
the big warner brothers buyout the big merger that just happened in the new leadership like a
bunch of people up at the top of warner brothers got fired they're bringing in a new kevin feige
type of figure to lead dc all of dc's brands not just the movies but all the comic books the toys
everything there's so much upheaval this is like the best shot for henry cavill actually
coming back as superman he has a way better shot now than he did last year apparently the new ceo
the company is a huge superman stand and wants to make a much bigger deal of the character than
they've done in the past couple of years he's kind of been languishing in the movie universe recently
so hopefully we'll hear something about a brand new superman movie happening really soon
but what's gonna happen is we're gonna get a brand new trailer later this week and it'll be
completely different footage of course i'll do a new video for what'll probably happen
because they're going to drop it on wednesday and there'll be a couple other big episode videos that
i'll be doing i'll probably put out my black adam trailer video first then i'll do my obi-wan kenobi
episode 4 video and then my miss marvel video will post after that because there's a running
marvel series that'll run with obi-wan kenobi on wednesdays so just this wednesday is going to
be crazy so make sure you have alerts enable for my channel so you don't miss any of those videos
i'll probably wind up having to wait till thursday to release that marvel episode video
if you have any questions about the character or anything that i didn't cover in this video just
let me know in the comments and i'll try to add it to my wednesday trailer video everyone click here
for the new flash movie trailer video and click here for my obi wan kenobi episode 4 trailer video
