This. Flick. Looks. Great.
I'm not a huge DC Comics guy. I've written about Batman before, and I (mostly) liked what DC did with the Justice League-related films. But growing up, I didn't actually read DC comics. Characters like Shazam are largely unknown to me. Oh sure, I have a peripheral awareness of the character, and what his powers are, but I don't know how Shazam fits into the overall DC-universe, as it were.
All of that said, back in the day The Wife and I really enjoyed Zachary Levi in "Chuck". The premise of Shazam looks good, and I think that Levi is the perfect actor to pull it off.
Plus, the Eminem track "My Name Is" as a backdrop is a fantastic touch.
