And nothing of value was lost. ;)

Maybe it would have been good. Though who knows.

True that, true that.

More for Marvel to takes its glory for the next 2-3 years, closer to the Avengers.

I think the three Captain Marvel fans that aren't in their early 90's will be very saddened by this news.

It's like been shot with a kryptonite bullet right to the heart.

I really use to think the whole Big Red Cheese/Billy Batson thing was screwy, but I've gained an appreciation for it in the last couple of years. He is a character you can really care about and it sounds like August had a strong bead on what makes the comic strong. Better to let the project die than have a half-assed studio muck-up. Like Superman Returns.

Yet more proof of WB's recent idiocy. Sounds like they're skittish about any fantasy or superhero property - look what they did to the Narnia movies.

I'm glad this failed. Shazam / Captain Marvel is a character that would be best done as an animated film. I think a Pixar-like Brad Bird movie would be a MONSTER smash! Not every comicbook character deserves the live action treatment and Hollywood is missing out by not tapping this obvious offshoot stream.
