Captain Marvel or Shazam! - Blu-ray Forum

After you have seen both movies which one was better, Captain Marvel or the original Captain Marvel...Shazam!

I will be seeing Shazam! tomorrow so I will wait til then to cast my vote.

They are both really good.

Interestingly, it appears Captain Marvel was the first super hero to make it to the big screen with 1941 serial "The Adventures of Captain Marvel" - though that character is now known as Shazam.

Shazam!

I was expecting nothing from Shazam and was blown away at how much fun it was. Hands down Shazam for me.

Hardkore · 04-07-2019, 07:52 PM

I like both but Shazam! was more fun all around. Looking forward to the sequel for sure.

Shazam! is a better movie but Captain Marvel was alright. This is not a day/night scenario.

Had no Interest in Cap Marvel but I saw Shazam today. I made the better choice what a fun movie.

Sad that Shazam! isn't doing as good at the box-office, despite getting better reviews.

Because WB doesn't buy out seats to boost it's box office in an attempt to sway public interest.

Captain Marvel for sure. Am I the only one for Captain Marvel?

goresnet · 04-20-2019, 12:36 AM

Saw Shazam today. We all enjoyed it, quite a bit. I'm the only one in my group that saw Captain Marvel, and I would say that's not in my top 15 Marvel films.

So, Shazam!, hands down.

Mr. Forest · 04-20-2019, 06:28 AM

I'm not particularly fond of either product, but I did enjoy Shazam! quite a deal more than Captain Marvel, which I found to be average at best.

darkness2918 · 04-20-2019, 06:47 AM

Shazam. Captain Marvel was just super average at best.

kylor · 09-24-2020, 01:42 PM

Shazam is the more fun movie to watch. Captain Marvel was just meh. Captain MEHvel.

JediJones77 · 09-10-2021, 05:13 AM

Captain Marvel...and by that, I mean Shazam.

Alan T · 09-10-2021, 03:34 PM

Shazam

Gizz · 09-11-2021, 12:00 PM

Captain Marvel was not that big a fan of Shazam.

Batman1980 · 09-11-2021, 12:03 PM

Loved both, love Shazam! just a bit more.
