VIDEO: Billy Batson Learns the Power of the Word “Shazam!”

3020

In a new video preview of SHAZAM!, Captain Marvel…err…Captain Sparkle Fingers…err Shazam (who is actually the damn wizard that gives Billy Batson his powers to become Captain F’n Marvel!) learns how to transform from the world’s mightiest mortal into the teenage Billy Batson.

 

Cute, very cute…and I mean that in a good and positive way!

I’m seeing it tomorrow, so I’ll be posting my review here on BOF once the embargo is lifted.

Also, have I ever told y’all that I’ve been waiting for this film since 1974? – Bill “Jett” Ramey

PS: Is calling him “Captain Thunder” a possible compromise?

Bill "Jett" Ramey
Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
