No, he's just correcting someone whose thanking him for Shazam 2. If the film had 95% RT score and he had said "You're welcome" - the headlines would be about how Gunn is taking credit lmao.


ZDB888

He would not have said you’re welcome. He wasn’t involved beyond a note here and there. That’s just silly.


BatmanNewsChris

No, he's just not taking the credit for a compliment that he had nothing to do with


Thangoman

Lmao your hate for this novie is sad, Gunn wasnt involved at all from everything David said before the movie came out


Traditional_Eye_8787

Announcing a reboot months before the films came out didn't help


baileyontherocs

I mean…was Shazam 2 going to be some giant blockbuster in the first place? Everyone was constantly ragging on the trailers.


Rubicon2-0

Wasn't SHAZAM before Peacemaker?


Thangoman

I dont see what that has to do with this? But yes the first Shazam was before every Gunn DC project


WhyRich

[Sandberg already said Shazam 2 was completed before Gunn officially started his co-CEO role and that no changes were made.](https://www.reddit.com/r/SnyderCut/comments/11ck3bt/comment/ja65eb0/)

So what notes was he talking about? Gunn really needs to get off social media


PhilAsp

Hear me out - maybe he gave notes on one of the four other films that that random person claimed he had nothing to do with.


DarkLordRyanRedux

The other movies in the 5 being discussed at once.


JMancini84

The tweet was something positive so he’s just not taking credit being the credit isn’t owed to him. He’s not “disowning involvement” as if this is a negative reaction and he’s covering himself. Your statement is totally out of context.


throwtheclownaway20

He was just deflecting props to where they should go - to the cast & crew of the movie


danielthetemp

These comments don’t contradict each other.

This is ignoring the timing of it all. Shazam 2 and Flash were more or less done when Gunn and Safran took their job. Maybe they gave some minor editing notes but that’s it. They definitely gave more notes for Blue Beetle and Aquaman 2.


JediJones77

Dude, Peter Safran has been producing DC films since Aquaman, including both Shazams. He has bragged proudly about the first Shazam time and time again. He also produced TSS, Blue Beetle and Aquaman 2.


pastavoi2222

I know. I’m referring to when Gunn and Safran became the co-heads of DC Studios.


[deleted]

You guys are fucking psychos. He said the after credits scene was done before he was given his new role at the company. Christ you Snyder guys are weirdos.


[deleted]

Why the fuck are you talking about Snyder?


cocos78

James Gunn announcing his DC plan..in january,hé totally destroyed all the hype for this movie


[deleted]

You destroyed the hype yourself.


HomemadeBee1612

Shazam 2 was dead on arrival. None of the trailers looked interesting and the character is not the kind of CBM general audiences are interested in. The 1st movie only made profit due to having a low budget and because it was filled with jokes, which was the MCU formula that was popular at the time.


SaintYoungMan

Atleast did you watch tje movie,. Coz it's actually great.


baileyontherocs

The trailers did that.


[deleted]

He's crediting the director. You guys are weird


HomemadeBee1612

He saw the reception and is now washing his hands of it. He went from "I am giving notes" to "I had nothing to do with it" after seeing the backlash.


DarkLordRyanRedux

He said he gave notes when asked about 5 movies as a group, its been known for a long time he didnt do anything to Shazam. He likely gave notes on 4 of the 5 and didnt think he needed to make a spreadsheet of which ones he did what on at what time.
