Watch this video on 1.25 play speed if you don't want to lose your mind. Idk why this dude talks so slow and monotone but these vids are cool
We'll pin this comment, great suggestion. Glad you still enjoy the video.
Jackson Bostwick is my fave
He was great in the role.
He will always be my Captain Marvel
Garrett Craig was awesome as Captain Marvel!
We agree!

I would agree witb you on that assessment 😊
Same. I used to watch the Shazam/Isis hour. It's all about money. I had a huge crush on Isis! Joanna Cameron was is her name, I believe.
The actress appeared in an episode of the 70s Spider-man tv show.

The Tom Tyler serial is one of the best ever made. Republic Studios and Columbia had some of the best. You get a glimpse of the uniform in episode 1 of The Adventures of Superman
I would totally agree with you on this.
Not just Tom Tyler's uniform, but also Buster Crabbe's from Flash Gordon.
Republic Pictures had better flying effects for Captain Marvel, Commando Cody and Rocketman than Columbia's animated ones for Superman (Kirk Alyn) and the later George Reeves series.
@andrewweisneck1102 I think Republic had the all-round best serials of any studio
Tom Tyler was the best. I got a kick out of him throwing an engine block at a couple of henchmen in one of the chapters. He didn't play patty-cakes with the bad guys.
That's a laugh riot 🤣. What are your thoughts on the new Shazam and Black Adam?
He also mowed down several people with a machine gun.
The movie "J-Men Forever" had clips of various serials with funny dialogs dubbed in.
The scene with Captain Marvel roughing up some bad guys has him telling them "It's fun to abuse you."
@@Geekwatch00 Sorry for the late reply. I never saw your comment. They were entertaining, but I never thought of Captain Marvel having the mind of Billy Batson. I liked Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam but didn't care for the CGI villain. The best part of the Shazm sequel was seeing Michael Gray in the crowd, in his trademark red/yellow shirt, shouting, "You're the best Captain Marvel!".
@@andrewweisneck1102 I'll have to check that out.
Tom Tyler will always be the best Captain Marvel
Have yoi watched all episodes?
I have watched all episodes and they are awesome
@@jeffjohnson3065 that's cool that would make you more an expert in this than we are. 😅
Any fun facts you can share about the series?
I really hate how DC lost the copyright for the name "Captain Marvel" to MARVEL comics. I grew up watching the "Shazam" tv series and read the comics back in the 1970's. I just can't get used to him now being called "Shazam," while "Captain Marvel" is an Avenger. It's just so stupid! Shazam can't introduce himself by name without triggering his transformation back into Billy Batson!
We read somewhere in the comics that he'll be foing by the title - "The Captain"
But we agree with you this character will always be Captain Marvel 😊

He was once called Captain Thunder in an animated movie.
Captain Thunder is an OK name.
@@Geekwatch00 I still want to call him Captain Marvel....
@@les4767 same here.
Is it just me or does the second guy, Jackson Bostwick, look like Zac Effron 1:12
You're not alone. 😅
Jackson Bostwick
The original and the best💯👍
Can you explain how he is the original? When there was someone else who played the character prior to him.
@@Geekwatch00 He's MY original, being that I watched him as a child, so technically, you are correct!
@@ultrafaga1947 ok that is noted. Thanks for clarifying, greatly appreciate. We never got the show where we are, and just really learning about these shows thru internet research. So, we are glad to hear from people who've actually watched it from their childhood.
Im so glad you remembered shazam from the 2 show run in the 70s with the other heros...really wish that would have had a longer run
We actually learned about them just thru our research 😊
You did good work naming the actors who played Cap, but what about his secret identity?
Who were the actors who played Billy Batson?
Next video?
Yup that can be a topic for another video. Billy Batson needs a fair shake 😊.
Thanks for pointing this out. Kindly subscribe if you haven't yet, and watch other videos in the channel. I have here about Wolverine Actors...

Billy Batson was played by:
Frank Coughlin Jr. In Adventures Of Captain Marvel (1941)
Michael Gray in Shazam! (1974-1977)
And
Asher Angel in Shazam! (2019) and Shazam!: Fury Of The Gods (2023)
The Captain Marvels from Legends Of The Superheroes (1979) and The Drew Carey Show (2001) didn't have an on screen Billy Batson.
@@andrewweisneck1102
Thanks
@@andrewweisneck1102 Fun fact: Michael Gray had a cameo in Shazam! Fury of the Gods, not as Billy but as a bystander who called Shazam "Captain Marvel"
@radrobd123 Spoiler Alert!
I actually haven't seen Fury Of The Gods yet, but I knew about that cameo.
I wish JoAnna Cameron (Isis) would have done a cameo in a DC project before she died.
Legends Of Tomorrow or Black Adam would have been appropriate.
Nazuko yt here
Thanks Nazuko!
I think Jerry O'Connell was the best voice for the character. Zach Levi is perfectly cast though. 👌
Looking forward for the Fury of the Gods?
Zach sucks
Captain Sparklefingers???
🤣
That's the name Freddy called him in Shazam! (2019). They couldn't come up with a superhero name for him, but in 2023's Shazam! Fury of the Gods, the Wizard said his name is "Shazam"
Captain marvel & Shazam are 2 different characters get facts right
Can you enlighten us, that will be a big help.
Tell us who is Captain Marvel and who is Shazam. Thanks.
s chen, Shazam is what Billy Batson says to become Captain Marvel. Shazam is what Captain Marvel says to turn back into Billy Batson. There IS no Character called Shazam. Get facts right.
Captain marvel is a different superhero to Shazam ok 2 separate superhero from DC comics and Marvel comics as I have my facts right
@@stephenchen9208 Can you answer if you're familiar with the comics on which these characters were based on? Or are you only basing it from the "recent" movies.
@@stephenchen9208 No you don't.
Hmmmmm
Hmmmm... what?
@@Geekwatch00 I was watching it thinking “oh maybe this is an old video” but then I did some digging… you know what I found? At the point this video was made “Captain Marvel” had gone through a name change, meaning it shouldn’t still say “Captain Marvel” Very suspicious indeed.
@@theittheit6075 He'll always be Captain Marvel to us old timers.
@@Geekwatch00 ok that makes sense
@@theittheit6075 We're glad that it made sense to you.
Thanks for calling him 'Captain Marvel'. I hate the 'Shazam' moniker...
Yup... I kinda age myself by still referring to him as Cap Marvel, the name just sound right in my brain. 😅
DC destroyed this character 😢
Can you elaborate how they deatroyed the character?
@Geekwatch He wasn't always a kid once he transformed into Captain Marvel, the still being a kid is a new version of him and it sucks.DC didn't like the fact that Captain Marvel was out selling superman so they sued Fawcett comics and ended up buying the character. After they got him, they watered him down into a joke because they (DC) competing against superman.
@@mlfitness67 got it. Thanks for sharing that.
@@mlfitness67DC tried that with The Greatest American Hero too in 1981 claiming Ralph Hinkley was a rip-off of Superman but they lost that case
Maybe they might have been successful if they had realized that Ralph was closer to Green Lantern by receiving his supersuit from aliens like Hal Jordan recieved his power ring from The Guardians Of The Universe.
Brie Larsen Captain Marvel in the 2019 MCU movie.
Yup this one is for the DC version 😊
Brie Larson has 'The Thing' zombie feet.
Oh my god the 1 in the Drew Carey show doesn't count get real
I agree with you 100%
Die Tatsache, dass jemand behauptet Captain Marvel ist Shazam ist schon peinlich. 🫢🫣🙄🤦
In dem Video sieht man nur the Evolution of Shazam. Brie Larson spielt Captain Marvel.
Das Video handelt vom „Original“ CAPTAIN MARVEL, dem einen, den DC in den 1940er Jahren von den Fawcett-Comics erworben hat. Der Charakter wird jetzt hauptsächlich als SHAZAM assoziiert, aber er ist immer noch offiziell Captain Marvel. Bries Captain Marvel ist ein anderer Charakter und wir werden wahrscheinlich in Zukunft ein Video über sie machen.
@@Geekwatch00
Ok das wusste ich nicht. Ich bin nicht so ein Comic Fan. Ich bin eher ein Serien oder Film Fan. Danke für die Info aber ich für mich ist Captain Marvel immer Brie Larson und das andere ist Shazam.
