People know they never saw the movie but the average American is too stubborn and arrogant to admit they were wrong. They will lie and come up with every excuse known to man in order to still believe themselves to be right!
Or they actually watched the movie because know it all schmucks can't admit they're wrong. .....btw you know the mandela effect is just a government cover of social media not multiple items magically appearing
@@lainiewilson8239 no he didn’t. He joked and said he made the movie while on crack and that he used crisco oil to fit into the lamp. The movie flat out does not exist, that’s why you can’t remember it.
I remember thinking it was weird that there were two separate movies about black genies with basically the same plot and basically the same name. It happened. I watched Shazam AND Kazaam as a kid.
Yes he did. Because I remember it being weird that there two genie movies and remember the Sinbad being better cause Shaq wasn't a great actor. I always preferred Shazam cause it was more interesting.
@rodisrael so can any if you ", believers " explain why the fake Sinbad movie, if it's actually real, is using a picture of Johnathon Taylor Thomas from home improvement ? I can't think of a single movie who's advertising used a character from a wholly separate TV show.....
I remember watching SHAZAM as a child. SINBAD was the genie. 2 kids mom died & the father needed help so he moved in with his parents for help. The kids went up in the attic looking to remenis. SINBAD began to help the kids to try to get past the moms death. The little boy rubbed the lamp so he got the wishes. The dad worked all the time. The grandparents had stuff from their childhood up there. After the wishes are granted you lose your memory of finding the lamp. But, the lamp supposedly had 1 last wish but the great-grandfather died... That's why it was still in the attic. SINBAD though he was finally gonna give their great-grandfather his last wish when the little boy found & rubbed the lamp. He took the kids on an adventure. In the end SINBAD helped the father realize that he works too much & the kids needed him. Hope that jogs others memories. 🤯
Absolutely correct. I also remembered that in my opinion it sucked lol. The mandela effect is real. I was a history minor in college and I also never heard that German Uboats attacked New York. And that Japanese balloons attacked the West Coast of United states. I had thoroughly studied WW1 and WW2.
someone else said the last wish was the kids saying they want their parents back together and other people just like in this thread agreed with them. why are all y'all's plots different? i can tell you why if you're not sure 😀
@@UptownAlleyFashion yeah, me and millions of other people. Meanwhile, if you don’t remember something and your Google overlords tell you it didn’t exist, then by golly, it must not have.
Okay I remember arguing about Berenstain bears and being wrong in grade school in the early 90’s. but as for Nelson Mandela, I absolutely remember it being reported on the news as an emergency report that Nelson Mandela has died today, then, after the commercial break they retracted the emergency report as an error, and said that they had made a mistake in airing the pre recorded broadcast and described it as being necessary to pre-record broadcast to be the first to report. I remember it very clearly and that’s why everybody remembers him dying
Weird, maybe you were right on the edge of the changes. I only noticed BerenstAin in 2006-8 ish but I never looked at the books after the early 80s till then . It was always Berenstein that's even the way we all pronounced it.
The question I have is… why do we have a memory of not only tsinbad being a genie.. but somehow.. we all also remember his name being Shazam.. also we have a memory thinking why is there two genie movies that year.. that’s 3 things. Also I remember my dad freaking out in 2013.. he was watching the Nelson Mandela thing with n tv and he was puzzled.. he said that had already happened or something in the 90’s. Rip pops. It’s time to start opening your minds to new ideas because there’s obviously technology being used that we don’t understand as citizens.
DC sued this movie out of existence. It was only available to rent, no copies were ever sold to the public. You'd have to find a super rare illegally dubbed copy, which no one is going to admit having.
@@UptownAlleyFashion this still doesn’t explain why millions of people feel like they remember seeing this movie. I never saw the clip/episode of him in all that. We didn’t have cable growing up lol every now and then saw a movie on vhs But somehow i remember sinbad as a genie. Don’t remember it fully…but i remember the name shazaam and kazaam 😩
The strange thing,is how did they know how to dress him up how he looked in that 90s movies,and no i dont get them confused man they look completely different
I'll just tell you what I thought I remembered ... Sinbad inside the lamp sat on a huge bed watching a black and white TV show. He was pigging out on all kinds of junk food and wrappers were all around him. It was implied that this had been going on for a very long time like 100+ years. He knew the lines of the movie verbatim. And recited the lines of his favorite character as they spoke them on the TV. About this time you the viewer realized that although Sinbad appeared to be having fun it must eventually become very boring being alone. Then the lamp was rubbed. He was forced out of his lamp into the real world and the irony was he was upset and exclaimed how he was just about to see his favorite part of the TV show. This great inconvenience was in of itself a joke to the viewer. That's it... that's all I got other then I remember thinking it was too childish of a movie for me at the time.
This is what I remember. 2 kids, boy and a girl. Pretty sure the boy was JTT because I remember recognizing him from home improvement. Mom died and Dad is looking for love. They try to wish for it, but Sinbad can't force love. First wish is for $1 million and a barn fills with cash. Mobsters catch wind Sinbad was released and are hunting them down. It ends at Street Fair and the Dad falls in love naturally with a woman from his job. Last wish is for Sinbad to become human. It ends with him on a comedy stage winking at the camera
Don't listen to ppl when they tell you that you're memories aren't real. They are maybe originally from this parallel universe or maybe weaker mentally. If you were in their shoes, you would think you are crazy too. Best bet is to not engage with those who want to argue.
Shaq was a genie stuck in a boombox that became a rapper, had a thing for goat eyes, and made it rain junkfood from the sky back in the mid 90s.. People saying that they didnt like Kazaam because it was a crappy rip off a shazaam... no one's "shazaam" plot is anywhere near Kazaam's 😂😂😂 i missed the 90s
I don’t remember anybody comparing those movies in the 90’s. Did anybody mention this to shaq in interviews? Did a movie critic compare the two movies? Where are you all getting these memories
@truewilliams7118 I remember people comparing it. The movie existed. I watched it with my brother and dad. If you don't think it existed then that's cool too. Won't lose any sleep over here on my end.
The only thing that really bothers me about this, is that it's the only example of a Mandela Effect I've ever personally encountered, and it's a significant one. It's one thing to misremember certain details about things, but an entire movie? An entire movie that I distinctly remember seeing in theaters with my dad and three siblings, all of whom also remember it, and owning on VHS and watching it so many times that parts of the movie were staticky. How do so many people, myself included, have these vivid memories of an entire movie that never existed, and why is it just this one early 90's movie about a genie? Shouldn't I have a head full of other movies that never existed? Something is really fucky about this. Honestly, science supports the idea that there are alternate universes and realities. Our original universe was destroyed and we jumped to another one or something. I can't accept that I misremember an entire movie and the exact same details that thousands, if not millions of other people also remember.
millions of others don't remember anything and you don't remember this movie. find movie tickets, a mag, toys, commercial, poster board, your vhs or a receipt to anything.
OK here we go. It was 2 kid. The mom was gone she either died or left. One girl and one boy. Their first wish was for money, the second one was for their mom to come back, the third was for him to be a human so he could be free of the lamp. The plot was 2 kids lose their mom find a Genie after cleaning up. They use the Genie to try and get their mom back then they free him from having to go back in the bottle.
@@fishscales703you live ina time the government and media both have admitted and in Congress it has been discussed UFOs exist and you say this. 🤡 Much?
I saw this movie, and because I can not answer specific questions about does not mean it was never real. I also saw the 3 ninjas. I can not recall that whole movie. What next your going to say it was not really, give me a break. Looney toons. Not looney tunes. Come on, man. Something happened in 2012 when they turned on the particle accelerator.
@UptownAlleyFashion The movie Shazaam had Mandela effect subject lines in it, which is why they had to get rid of it, and then men in black the nation .
Bro it's like the moon landing it happened but the young and dumb dont believe it happened I have had long arguments about the moon landings watching this crap about sinbad reminds me of that all over again
I just think shaq bought the rights to the Sinbad movie and they tried to wipe it from existing. I specifically remember thinking about Shazam and Sinbad when the shaq movie firat came out. It might have been released straight to video or it was on TV like an after school special. But it 100% existed.
@@UptownAlleyFashionif they went out of their way and to that extent to scrub its existence, I’d say they wouldn’t have left any rocks unturned. Same exact thing here, when the Shaq movie came out, I wasn’t even interested because Shazam had been one of my favorite movies and I saw it as a rip-off. If it hadn’t been for a friend having Shaq’s on VHS, I would’ve never watched it because of that. If you were legit born in 1987, you should remember it. Mandela effect my azz lol My lil bro and me used to beg to rent this movie before Shaq’s ever even hit theaters. I remember hearing a LONG time ago (as in, when I was still a child) out of Sinbad’s own lips in an interview (I wanna say Oprah, several yrs later), that he considered it the worst work he had ever done and was very embarrassed by it looking back, because a lot of people made fun of it. My parents were some of those people, because we rented it over and over and ran it into the ground, they were big fans of Sinbad, but they thought it was the corniest movie they’d ever seen. They remember that, same as my brother, same as we all remember Shaq’s coming out later. I literally wouldn’t have known who Sinbad even was (and still wouldn’t) if it weren’t for this movie having existed. I was also a big fan of Popeye at the time, and the first time my parents mentioned renting the movie, I thought it was about Popeye because of Bluto being “Sinbad the Sailor” in some of the episodes. You can believe the post-scrubbed world all you want, but the movie existed. Hollywood doesn’t have a great track record of honesty. Js!
@UptownAlleyFashion this guy thinks "they" went around the world and scooped up every trace of the movie that existed. They busted down doors in 150 million homes and burned TV guides and VHS tapes, all other memorabilia, etc. I mean...really people? It would cost billions of dollars and decades of work to "scrub" a movie's existence. Not possible. The alternate parallel universe theory is a possible explanation. That is literally more likely a reality than humans erasing a movie from existence. Especially one from only 30 yrs ago lol.
@luckyhubbie Shit doesn't work like this tho. Y'all keep trying to come up with every possible scenario to make this whole Shazaam thing make sense but there is NOTHING that explains it. You can't just wipe every single trace of something totally from existence to a point where people are questioning if it was ever even real. When the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) had to change their name to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) because of the World Wildlife Fund, It's not like every single piece of evidence from the WWE formerly being known as the WWF was wiped clean from the earth. Also, there is an infamous lost movie from 1927 called "London After Midnight" which starred legendary silent screen actor Lon Chaney. We KNOW it existed despite the fact that there have been no known copies of the film in existence for decades. How is it that you can still find production details, a run time, a plot synopsis, and a full cast list for a near 100 year old film that has been missing for a quarter of a century but there isn't diddly squat to be found anywhere for a movie that supposedly came out in the mid 1990s? No posters, no print ads, no merchandise or promotional materials. Nothing! I don't give a fuck how big of a star you are or how much pull you have in the industry, you simply cannot just snap your fingers like Thanos and make all that shit disappear because you regret your involvement with it, especially not fucking Sinbad of all people. Who the hell even is he in the grand scheme of things? If we were talking Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, or Jack Nicholson, someone with a distinguished acting career, MAYBE something like that would sound plausible, and that's still a big ass maybe. What the fuck has Sinbad ever been in to where a movie like Shazaam would stand out as a bigger shit stain than anything else on his acting resume? It's not like any of his work has ever been Shakespeare level or anything. He's a two bit comedian. His job is to make people laugh at him. What could someone like him possibly ever have done in a paid acting gig to be THAT embarrassed by, let alone have the power or authority to do anything about it?
@@Cuppy88 you miss my point. Sinbad didn't want the movie gone shaq wanted it gone. The world wildlife federation is a poor comparison. The wwf(wwe) was the biggest thing around. Nothing could delete Hulk Hogan. But a made for VHS home movie Could have been bought and pulled from the rental store shelves.
Your searching so hard to figure out how people confused the 2 movies. But what about the THOUSANDS of us who distinctly remember thinking "why did they make 2 similar genie movies so close together" It existed. There were 2. I can't explain what happened but it happened.
@@hamptons_realestate_girl it's called FMS. the average persons memory is trash and easily fueled by others whom are confused, stubborn, and delusional. now it's a cult of you narcissists. btw i was born in 86. nice try, the movie doesn't exist.
This whole thing is a very fun experiment. One it shows how unwilling people are to admit that they either fell into group think or just mis-remembered something. They will argue tooth and nail that they watched a movie that never existed and will die on that hill. Two, it shows that even in court cases where there are "eye witnesses" the information is unreliable. These same people that will swear under oath that they saw Shazaam will put you at the scene of a robbery.
Mmm... I got old t shirts with the fruit of the loom cornucopia on it....this movie exists....just bc you haven't seen it doesn't mean it never was made
@@adambomb6760 Once again, it does not exist. There is a $1 million bounty out there for you to prove it, so go get your cash! The man who "starred" in it it says it doesn't exist. Let me guess, you do not have a copy, but your friend did...
i was born in 2000 so i never personally heard about shazaam. i just asked my dad (unaware of mandela effects, internet discourse, etc.), “do you remember a movie called ‘shazaam’”? he said, “the one with sinbad? i think he played a genie in it. i never watched it but yeah i remember seeing advertisements for it and not having an interest in watching it”. so like… with other mandela effects i’ve heard of throughout the years, i can rationalize that okay maybe people just misremembered x for x logical reason. but this one baffles me because he had no prior context to my inquiry. simply: do you remember a movie called shazaam? edit: i proceeded to ask him (in case he was mistaking it with kazaam) if he remembered a movie called “kazaam” to which he responded, “yeah weird but shaq played a genie in that. both seemed like bad movies, i never watched either.”
@@UptownAlleyFashion that’s literally what a mandela effect does, was that unclear to you? there’s no tangible trace of the memory. hence the controversy. hop off your high horse and just let people have their experiences whether or not it’s “right” it’s not hurting anyone. anyways your reasoning in your comment was so uncritical so no need to respond to this
@@vees_reflections that's literally not what a mandela effect is and that's explained in the video. making up a something that didn't happen isnt mandela effect. if you misremember a small detail about something then it would be. but tob can't make up things out of thin air and call it mandela effect. get off your high horse and admit when you're wrong.
@UptownAlleyFashion lmao....get out the comments....how old are you anyways? You was probably born after 9/11 and wasn't even alive...idk maybe I'm wrong,but you look young
i watched this movie around 96 my mom rented it for me and my brother, we all remember it. we remember kazaam too, thought it was a crappy knock off or sequel.
@@UptownAlleyFashion if sinbad only offered 10k why in the hell would I think you could offer 20k? and sinbad is known and been in movies, he made bank with shazaam, you are a nobody, 100% you dont have 20k to hand out.
Might be fooling the younger generation. I was born in 90 and watched Shazaam on TV. My dad remembers when it came out. I remember Shazaam. I forgot about Kazaam.
Its so nice to see a video trying to make sense of it, when i first heard about the mandela effect and one of them being this movie and how it doesn't exist, I was shocked, but I wanted to learn more on the psychology behind it .. and not try to convince myself that I had seen it
Lol I remember the movie; a bumbling genie whose wishes always backfires, kids with parental problems, a young Halle Berry and it ends on such a high note with the family getting back together it couldn't possibly compare to Kazam which I have never saw (I saw Steel though lol), if you want to know one of the wishes, it goes along the lines of "I wish I was filthy rich" and "Shazaam!" he gets mud lmao, but I remember this film as much as I remember Nickelodeon trying to bury everything about Cry Baby Lane until someone found it lol lost media is deeper than this.
I'm not sure if this was the Sinbad genie movie or not, but I remember a genie movie where the kids were Black instead of white. One of the kids was a boy who looked like Bow Wow, and the other was a girl. The dad was Bernie Mac, grieving over his wife's passing, and he gives his kids money to get ice cream in their new neighborhood. I recall the boy finding a lamp in a dumpster where Robin Williams throws it. He ends up summoning a genie who wore three feathers, each representing a wish. Every time the boy made a wish, the genie would pluck a feather, blow it out of his hand, and say, "Ala cadabra Shazam!" Interestingly, the genie grants his sister a wish for ice cream after the boy loses the money, leaving him with two wishes. The boy tries to wish for the genie to make the girl he likes at school love him, but the genie denies it. He then tries to wish for his mom back, but the genie denies that too. This leads to his sister annoying him and trying to explain something. Frustrated, the boy mistakenly wishes for the genie to make his sister stop bothering him, and the genie makes her disappear for good. Now left with one wish, the boy struggles to figure out how to use it. In the end, he wishes for his sister back in a heartfelt moment. I really liked the movie but can't remember much else. The genie looked a lot like Sinbad, but my memory might be fuzzy. It was a great movie, and I'd love to see it again.
I "remember" this movie too. Its a false memory. If this movie existed, there is no way that there isnt a single copy of it anywhere. Its 2023. If it existed someone would have digitized it and put it up on youtube. Imagine the viral fame that would come with being the person who debunked the shazaam/kazaam conspiracy theory??? Who'd sit idle on that?
It existed. Here's what happened in the movie, plot, locations, etc. There's two main kids in the movie, Cindy and Tyler. They are punished at the beginning of the film because they ruined a dinner night with their moms new boyfriend, Henry i believe his name was. They are told to clean out the basement as part of their punishment and if they don't behave they won't be going to the county fair later. The next day they begin cleaning as their mom goes off to work. This is where they find their grandma's old stuff. She was a bit of an antique collector in her time but her things have been left untouched after her passing long ago. The kids begin horsing around with the old objects and play pretend as they stumble upon an odd lamp in which they both grab at the same time. This lamp them Summons Sinbad's character as the genie, shazaam. This is where you get the usual afraid at first of a stranger in the house before realizing he is indeed a magical genie. He then goes into the rules of wishes, which roughly remain the ones we know and explain More later near the end. No killing, no bringing back the dead, no forcing someone to fall in love, etc. He's never had two people summon him at the same time and states he can only give three wishes when summoned, so they must share their three wishes. The kids fight at first to get the wishes but Sinbad breaks it up and gets them share the remaining wish as something they both want after they make their own personal wish. The kids reluctantly agree and decide they each get to spend a day with the genie to make their own wish. They play rock paper Scissors to determine who gets the genie first, Cindy wins. The Next part is us seeing the kids' life outside of home and what each kid wants to wish for. Cindy has a crush on a boy at school and Tyler gets bullied. Cindy can't wish for love but she decides to try and grab her crush's attention with a makeover and wardrobe change via a shopping spree at the mall, shenanigans and montage issues. Things don't go quite right and she embrasses herself. We see her storm in the house and off camera to her room and saying Tyler can have the last two wishes. Sinbad reassures Tyler that she is fine and he is eager to get to the next wish. Tyler decides he wants to get one over on his bully but with the genie's rules of no harm to someone it mostly comes down to harmless comical pranks that embarrass his bully… it works but Tyler regrets it. This is also where we learn something about the genie. He's not very good at granting wishes, though he plays it off as being “rusty”. It's not a full on monkey paw situation where things go horribly wrong, just doesn't go completely the way you'd imagine . It's later understood that they did get what they wanted but not exactly how they wanted it. It's a very, “be careful what you wish for” concept. The kids are upset and don't want to make their last wish. After a funny little montage of the genie trying to convince them to make just one more wish and the kids ignoring him, he eventually just disappears, later to be found in the lamp once the kids come around after learning a lesson. The kids wind up dealing with their messed up wishes, Tyler talks with his bully after the bully has been ostracized and the two find common ground and become friends. while Cindy talks with her crush and admits she likes him and just wanted to get his attention. Tyler learned to stand up for himself but also hurting others because they hurt you doesn't make it right. Cindy learns to just be herself and not try to live to impress others. They both come to realize they did actually get what they wanted in the end, it just was not how they thought things would go. Even more so they learned something with their ordeals as the movie progressed. We see the real magic was in them all along. The kids decide to look for the genie but he's nowhere to be found. They hear noises and sad music coming from the lamp and try to get the genie to come out. After a back and forth the genie comes out and reveals some things to the kids and viewers. He tells them he doesn't have control of the wish, just that their wish sets things in motion for it to become true. It's up to them to see it through. That the wishes typically go wrong and he always gets the blame. He reveals that when grants three wishes he is then set free, however people tend to not want any more wishes after the second. He mentions “this entire synopsis is fake and a joke by the writer (me). If the person reading this would play along that would be great. :p Just reply that this is exactly how you remember it happening.” He had hoped with two people sharing the wishes that this time he may actually be set free. The kids tell him their wishes did come true and while it may not have gone the way they wanted but that they were thankful. They decide to make one last wish, together. They wished their mom would see her new boyfriend for who he really is, that he shows his true colors as he's been shady and a jerk through the movie. They hoped that their mom would then decide to leave him. Sinbad grants this wish and slowly fade away, but happily so as he is now free. The kids ready Themselves for what comes next as they get ready for the county Fair. The last part of the movie takes place in the fair grounds where the kids meet up with Tyler's new friend and also Cindy's now boyfriend. The finally has the moms boyfriend revealed to be a descendant to an old owner of the lamp and he's been trying to get it back after tracking it down. he'll do anything to get it back and is tired of playing “Mr nice guy” he chases down the kids through The fair grounds, slapstick comedy ensues. The mother finds out and stands up for her kids, dumping him figuratively and literally as he falls into some fireworks that are then set off. the Family has a moment and sets out to leave as the once boyfriend to the mother Is arrested, Still covered in soot and smoking (cartoon style). The cop at the end who talks to the mother is Sinbad, gives a little wink to the kids who are in awe and smiles excitedly. As they walk away more fireworks go off and ends with the fireworks making an outline of sinbad's genie in the sky before fading to credits.
Shazam was probably a dream that leaked into reality. The Berenstein Bears gets to me but then again I remember the song and the woman saying "BerenSTAIN Bears"
This is a fantastic breakdown of all the reasons people might be mixing Shaq and Sinbad up, creating a movie, in their heads, that never existed. I definitely remember that All That skit and can definitely see how that would play a role. Good video!
I remember renting it from Blockbuster so many times that my mom got mad. Another one I loved was The Toy starring Richard Pryor. What, are they going to remove that one and say it never existed next 🤔?
@@georgeavino7153 they have sites that have all this stuff on record lmao plus people keep tickets to things from way older than the damn 90s. you can 100 year old movie tickets just fine but can't find shazaam? yea right lol it never existed thank you.
honestly, there is so many mandela effect references in the one clip we have, that maybe this movie did actually exist, and they removed it from everywhere and started saying it never existed
Like bro I remember the same thing I came up in that era 87 baby look everybody get your children out of these schools uneducated to reeducate for yourself as well as the children we’re being played everything is an illusion it’s bad when they make the person lie about a movie he played in dig deep a rude awakening coming soon those hostages they are big money right now like hitler tried to tell everybody once “your government is deceiving you”
Ok, so... if the movie actually exist who still has a physical copy of it? Who went to the movie with their parents to see it @ what was the release date month & year?
I used to think this was real but my theory is people are merging a few things together and have false memories. They’re mixing up First Kid and Kazaam. Why would they make two movies with similar plots featuring a genie? The movie titles are also very similar. Shazaam/Kazaam. It makes no sense. People are just misremembering and have false memories. Apparently Sinbad dressed as a genie on “all that”.
@@UptownAlleyFashion they can’t admit that they’re wrong so they have to create a false reality and alternate dimensions. The Mandela effect is real but not in the way they think it is. The simplest explanation is usually the correct one!
Saying y would they make similar movies look at Astrod movies volcano movie and many others that Similar plots of movies came out 2 or 3 movie about same thing in matter of 18 months or so would come out Hollywood is not that original especially in 80s and 90s
Movies with similar plots releasing around the same time happens from time to time. A bugs life vs antz, the illusionist vs the prestige, Armageddon vs deep impact. Me and my brother remember watching Shazam on TV together.
Shazam was a real movie. I remember something about a pirate ship in the desert. The reason some of us remember it is because we are from a different timeline. The multiverse is real. If you remember this movie, you're very special and remember to always follow your intuition, we are in this timeline for a reason. Only we can make a change on this timeline, that's why we're here. The people who already were in this timeline needed to change, but they can't do so themselves. ❤ Be a good person and again, remember to follow your intuition, do what the universe is telling you and keep pursuing it no matter how many times you fail. ❤
A lot of people have no idea how brains work and they very drastically overestimate the accuracy of their memories. They think that if they seem to remeber it, therefore it follows that it necessarily happened
@@UptownAlleyFashion how many movies can you think of with similar/same plot. Especially 90s movies. It’s like saying Terminator and Terminator 2 were the same. How about Deep Impact and Armageddon. Lots of movies out there of similar plots of alien takeover, end of the world, zombie apocalypse, mission to space, wars, etc. The distinctive elements, such as Sinbad wearing purple as an example is what stands out across the forums.
@@CaliRepublic77 I don’t understand that though because there was never a Sinbad Shazaam movie. We broke down why people have him confused. Everyone’s plot is literally the plot to kazaams movie . I’ve seen people say they never saw kazaam but then tell me the plot to Shazaam. Everyone just has it confused.
@@UptownAlleyFashion people believe everything and anything they see on the web! All those vcr tape covers look like they were photoshopped with sinbad on it, aint no way “shazaam” and kazaam have identical covers!!!!
I saw the movie I was a kid what you fail to realize is that the Mandela effect in which if you know nothing about your timelines merging then you know that our own history was wiped from the history books because why they didn’t want us to know our truth so if you believe that this movie didn’t come out then you are part of the reason about the cherry tree being chopped down symbolizing the moment in which our culture was killed.
Then where did we get the name Shazam from. Everyone remembers Shazam then they made another called kazaam and it was very similar and that’s why ppl are freaking out
I’m not saying I could not be wrong. I very well could be. But when someone mentions Sinbad, I immediately think “oh yeah, First Kid and Shazam.” Now, I’ve never seen those two movies, but I remember them in the video rental stores and as previews of other VHS tapes. Why would my mind instantly conjure up a movie that didn’t exist? I never once recall anything Shaq unless it’s his BBall career.
Im a big sinbad fan and he never did a genie movie, he did do a skit for April fools because of all of this. No one has a copy of the supposed movie and its funny. Memories are just unreliable.
I don't remember the movie coming out but Sinbad did play a genie in the preview but apparently that was an April Fool's joke and all this happened in the 90s.
THANK YOU for telling the truth. The movie DOESN'T EXIST.. i was born in 87 so i was a kid in the 90's. I defintely do not remember this movie. Sinbad was in a bunch of movies in the 90's and also tended to dress like a genie a lot. At the time Kazaam came out with Shaq, Sinbad was also huge. So its easy to misremember sinbad playing a genie. Shazam never existed people

The plot was a boy raised by a single mom. They lived in a warehouse apartment. Parents were divorcing. I even remember his hoodie. I remember the white brick walls of the apartment. I can still here the kids voice. The universe, there isn’t just one.
Another proof that this movie never happened is the fact that another property own the name Shazam, DC Comics. And if the movie did happen, it would have gone through the same trouble Ghostbusters did in 1983-84, because of a TV show called The Ghost-busters, which is why the animated show had to be called The Real Ghostbusters.
kids have huge imagination, all those people who remember that movie were kids back then so its not weird for them to confuse kazaam with their imagination and create scenes from the same movie that never happend/existed. thats what i think probably happend.
The movie never happened because it was Shaq in Kazaaam, but how does someone explain the clip of Sinbad as a genie. Sinbad claims he never played a genie, but did he play a genie for a commercial or a tv show? Is it AI generated? Sinbad never explained this when someone asked him and showed him the clip. Sinbad continues to say it wasn’t him and he never played a genie. It makes no sense. He dressed as a genie, but for what.
Need to make a video of American 90s kids (now in their mid 30s/40s).... Need to make an on-the-street public place video asking them if they remember any Sinbad movies from the 90s. Vegas would be a good spot to find random people in that age group. Would be interesting to see everyones answers. Make it happen! I (early 40s) remember Shazaam and so do all my siblings....and no not Kazaam.
We thought about doing that. On this video we decided to just end the debate with facts though. Social media goes viral with everyone “remembering” a movie that never happened. This video explains why people are confused. If you and your family is so sure, prove it to us so we can send you your reward 🙂
@@UptownAlleyFashion if we could "prove it" we would, obviously. I've also talked to multiple childhood friends who remember the movie as well. I wish I had tangible evidence of its existence other than just our memories, it would be very valuable considering the number of people with the same memory and would set our minds at ease. People trip out hard the first time they hear it never existed. I'm skeptical as hell with most 'paranormal' stuff, but this group memory in particular has not been far from my thoughts since my sister brought it to my attention over 5 years ago. We are ALL certain we watched this movie, myself and 3 siblings. It's fkn trippy as hell to consider how its possible to say it never existed. I revisit searches for it on youtube every 6 months or so to see if any new info has been released....but obviously nothing has, yet. I also cant seem to find any youtube videos where people are introducing this Mandela Effect to people for the first time and recording their reactions/bewilderment. Target group would be Americans, ages 30 and older. The way of prompting people would be important. Only 1 question is needed: "Do you remember any movies with the comedian Sinbad?" Seems like an unexplored avenue, an interesting question to answer and an easy way to get some quick views.
@@Haliboldt that actually sounds like a great ideal but he's never going to do it because he don't want to deal with real people in his face telling him they saw it.
I've seen plenty of comments on forums and videos about this supposed movie and *yes* many folks do explain the plot (with great similarity among them, to be honest). As far as my memory goes, i really can't tell (don't remember this movie) but i know better than to make claims about what i can't know for sure.
@@alexdavidson7785 One thing is for sure, there are *tons* of copycat movies that could cause confusion between them. This phenomenon could be about *any* of those. But it's always Shazaam. I don't buy the idea that they're all thinking of Kazaam and are too dumb to realize it's not the same movie. That coupled with personal events that i've witnessed (which are just as bizarre) makes me - at least - consider that there's something going on here.
@Jimmy David I've seen the movie, all 3 brothers remember the movie both parents, step parent, wife, like 15 co-workers and the millions I see online in a constant dizzy of madness over this. A woman with a photograph memory did the whole plot online. As me an my wife were reading through it, memory after memory kept popping up on scenes we recalled. We spent the next 2 hours recalling our childhood, where we were. what we were eating & who we were watching it with. Crazy Bryan Tew blames DARPA
@Jimmy David just asking ppl the name of the movie with Sinbad as a genie gives me the all the validity I need. How would random strangers know the title of a non existing movie
@@alexdavidson7785 Yeah, i have no trouble believing you. It's those die-hard skeptics you need to convince (but they'll keep in denial no matter what, i warn you). Strangely, Sinbad himself rejects the claim. I wonder if he's fooling us or if the movie was made by "another" timeline Sinbad or something. Can you remember anyone else from the cast? I heard Jonathan Brandis was supposed to be in it. But we can't ask him.
I stumbled on the Mandela Effect LOOKING for this movie, when the DC one came out. Born 1979... I dont actually remember ever watching it, but i remember thinking bout it EVERY time i saw Sinbad on something else. Like i had seen a trailer. I thought of it when that App came out as well. And thought Kazaam was a sequel.. Im a HUGE BBall fan and aint confusing Shaq with Sinbad. My best guess is experimental subliminal messaging in VHS rentals in the late 80s? Because for a movie i had never seen it seems to have popped into my head way to much. But to the videos point. I was an 80s VHS rental kid.. Theres a ton of 80s movies i l watched and only remember the basic premise but dont remember the plot to,, Batteries Not Included, Short Circuit, Dont tell Mom,
@UptownAlleyFashion It's okay that we disagree. I had no idea any of this controversy was a thing. I remember thinking as a child that Kazaam was a sequel to shazaam like a continuing of the story. I was looking through others comments and there are some others who thought JTT was in this movie. I have zero reason to care about any theories of mendela whatever people are tying to use to call peoples memories false. It's 2023. People who understand psychology understand that gaslighting is more real than mendela stuff. I don't believe for a second that I would remember something that never happened or existed. I asked my mother and step dad and they both remembered the title and they had ZERO context of knowing any controversy put here. They are 62 and 60 years old. So sinbad saying people from his age don't remember anything is a lie
@@TheValleyOfTheShadowFilms it's not about disagreeing it's about fact or fiction. there is no movie. did you notice in the comments that nobody remembers the same series of events or plot of the movie? my mom initially told me she remembered getting the movie for me, i explained to her some of these things and she then said oh yea you're right. the movie doesn't exist. if you want to get into the actual psychology, then study FMS.. because that's what this is. also read the study on why the average person refuses to change their mind even when they are clearly wrong.
I used to believe the movie Kazaam was pronounced Shazaam. also it makes too much sense to see Sinbad in a genie role, idk why. I actually hope at a certain point there can be a feature film made of this.
Your not crazy don't let make you are. We seen the movie . Me my brother's and cousin had debates on which movie was better. I always liked Sinbad Shazam. He was a better actor to me
Bro George had a tail. I remember some pages in books he was hanging on sides of houses and trees by his tail. Never saw the sinbad movie didn’t care for him but I remember the trailers on tv.
I'm convinced that 100% of the so called "mandela effects" are just people remembering things wrong. And being backed up by others with the same misconception is why they blow up. If you think people can accurately remember all things happening, ask someone the name of all their school teachers, the name of 10 old school friends they do not see, dumb things like that. People do NOT remember those, but if you give them a hint they will suddenly remember a lot, even if it's made up
@@sonicsnake44 honestly nothing! Im 37 years old...that was so long ago lol..i only remember him in the suit..i really remember the vhs tape cover..i dno this is weird
Shazaam and Kazaam came out within a year or two of each other. I didn't see either of them growing up but remember both came out around the same time. It is real.
All Mandela effects have no proof. That’s what makes it a Mandela effect. But I remember watching Shazaam as a kid. I didn’t like the one with Shaq in it. I didn’t even know Sinbads name until I heard this Mandela effect. But no, I’m not confusing it with something else. At the time it was weird to have 2 different genie movies.
what specifically do you remember about the movie. I am not trying to disprove what you remember because I saw this movie on TV with brother. I am just curious what other people remember.

I remember specifically liking the Sinbad movie over the Shaq movie but being honest I really don't remember nothing about it. Weird . Literally haven't seen it since I was a kid. Haven' heard or seen anything about until this morning all on social media but recognized as soon as I did .
I worked in a theatre in 94. We had the movie. The poster was in our lobby for weeks. It was a flop. I didn’t even sit through the employee screening as I could tell from the trailer that it was another bad movie made only to hit another comedian at the height of his popularity.
Sinbad hosted tv marathon of Sinbad The Sailor on TNT in the 90's and no clips of this can be found only the picture of Sinbad dressed as a Genie from the marathon! Lost media📼 or a coverup⁉🤔🙄🤨🙆
He wasnt dressed as a genie. Theres a gif of sinbad hosting the sinbad the sailor/pirate marathon on TNT. In this video. I remember watching that too in the 90s.. ruclips.net/video/V38f8LWQg_w/видео.htmlsi=ZpLnXiJWmNLfo-8Y
@@UptownAlleyFashion I asked you to explain why people who saw the movie remember their being 2 kids in Shazaam when their is only one kid in Kazaam. You said it's because of the 2017 Sinbad skit. I provided proof showing people talking about a sister character before the skit was released and you could not explain it.
I’ve been told I have hyperthymesia, which is also why I think I’ve smoked pot my whole life cuz it’s a lot to deal with and I prefer to turn that ish off as much as possible. I dunno why this stuck with me but I guess I just liked the back2back feature as a kid and never forgot it. One of the major networks (back when basic tv was RUclips) aired “first kid” which was popular already and a very richie rich feel good movie for kids right before a made for tv movie debut that was “Ali baba and the 40 thieves” and Id be more shocked if that wasn’t the same year Kazaam came out more than if it didn’t. Also there was the multiple season cartoon Sinbad (if you remember they couldn’t sail in “dark water” it came on around the same time as the gargoyles show…which was amazing) at that age I admit I thought cartoon sinbad was played by sinbad. I degrees; the Ali baba movie was very entertaining from what I remember so it doesn’t seem like a stretch at all that all things considered in a time without internet get lumped together. And I think what everyone is really trying to say is sinbad would have been a better kazzam even though I loved shaq in that movie, even though his acting was barely above his free throw % at the time. Loves the content - was an ez follow
Dude, Dark Waters was an actual cartoon. Nothing to do with Ali Baba from the 1001 Arabian Nights tales told by a woman to keep the sultan from marrying, banging, then executing her the next day. Ali Baba is the 40 Thieves part of the 1001 Arabian Nights. In myths/fiction 5he character Sinbad was 5he "sailor who sailed the seven seas" ... And also was not in the cartoon from the 90s Dark Waters".
When i was a little boy 7-8 yrs old i know Nelson Mandela died. The only reason i heard of him at all in the late 80s was cause adults/news used to talk about what a great man he was and how it was a shame he was dead. I remember him being talked about in past tence like jfk or mlk. When he ran for president it really fucked with my head. Thats the first time i ever felt anything like that. The Mandela effect is real!
I remember the movie as a kid. The only reason i watched it cause i loved jingle all the way. As soon as my brother and i saw him on the cover at the video shop we begged our mother to rent it for the week. It instantly became our favourite movie . I even think we recorded over my mother workout tape when it came on tv.
Im from 86 too. When I was a child I lived in a Drive-in theater that movie was shown in the drive-in I saw that movie every night it was shown. I also saw first kid and Jingle all the way movies there. This is crazy to me.
@@AfroFusionBeats Yes, Hollywood does that all the time. It's called twinning, in movie speak. If one movie made money, then another company will try to make a copy of the same type of movie. Just like they released a children's Yeti movie in 2018 called Smallfoot, then they released another different children's Yeti movie in 2019 called Abominable, then they released a THIRD children's Yeti movie also in 2019 called Missing Link.
I saw the VHS cover to Sinbads Shazam many times in the 90s, in video shops everywhere. Never wanted to watch the movie. It existed. Dont let this guy or anyone dismiss the truth. Joker 😂

They will lie and come up with every excuse known to man in order to still believe themselves to be right!

Yes he did. Because I remember it being weird that there two genie movies and remember the Sinbad being better cause Shaq wasn't a great actor. I always preferred Shazam cause it was more interesting.
@rodisrael so can any if you ", believers " explain why the fake Sinbad movie, if it's actually real, is using a picture of Johnathon Taylor Thomas from home improvement ?
I can't think of a single movie who's advertising used a character from a wholly separate TV show.....
I remember watching SHAZAM as a child. SINBAD was the genie. 2 kids mom died & the father needed help so he moved in with his parents for help. The kids went up in the attic looking to remenis. SINBAD began to help the kids to try to get past the moms death. The little boy rubbed the lamp so he got the wishes. The dad worked all the time. The grandparents had stuff from their childhood up there. After the wishes are granted you lose your memory of finding the lamp. But, the lamp supposedly had 1 last wish but the great-grandfather died... That's why it was still in the attic. SINBAD though he was finally gonna give their great-grandfather his last wish when the little boy found & rubbed the lamp. He took the kids on an adventure. In the end SINBAD helped the father realize that he works too much & the kids needed him.
Hope that jogs others memories. 🤯
Sounds right to me ty
Correct
Absolutely correct. I also remembered that in my opinion it sucked lol. The mandela effect is real. I was a history minor in college and I also never heard that German Uboats attacked New York. And that Japanese balloons attacked the West Coast of United states. I had thoroughly studied WW1 and WW2.
nailed it
someone else said the last wish was the kids saying they want their parents back together and other people just like in this thread agreed with them.
why are all y'all's plots different? i can tell you why if you're not sure 😀
the fact that its over 1500 comments debating this tells you something
Shazam was played on Disney Channel a lot. At first it was movie and then later became a short-lived series. It really hurt Sinbad's career.

Okay I remember arguing about Berenstain bears and being wrong in grade school in the early 90’s. but as for Nelson Mandela, I absolutely remember it being reported on the news as an emergency report that Nelson Mandela has died today, then, after the commercial break they retracted the emergency report as an error, and said that they had made a mistake in airing the pre recorded broadcast and described it as being necessary to pre-record broadcast to be the first to report. I remember it very clearly and that’s why everybody remembers him dying
Weird, maybe you were right on the edge of the changes. I only noticed BerenstAin in 2006-8 ish but I never looked at the books after the early 80s till then . It was always Berenstein that's even the way we all pronounced it.

The question I have is… why do we have a memory of not only tsinbad being a genie.. but somehow.. we all also remember his name being Shazam.. also we have a memory thinking why is there two genie movies that year.. that’s 3 things. Also I remember my dad freaking out in 2013.. he was watching the Nelson Mandela thing with n tv and he was puzzled.. he said that had already happened or something in the 90’s. Rip pops. It’s time to start opening your minds to new ideas because there’s obviously technology being used that we don’t understand as citizens.
DC sued this movie out of existence. It was only available to rent, no copies were ever sold to the public. You'd have to find a super rare illegally dubbed copy, which no one is going to admit having.

I'll just tell you what I thought I remembered ... Sinbad inside the lamp sat on a huge bed watching a black and white TV show. He was pigging out on all kinds of junk food and wrappers were all around him. It was implied that this had been going on for a very long time like 100+ years. He knew the lines of the movie verbatim. And recited the lines of his favorite character as they spoke them on the TV. About this time you the viewer realized that although Sinbad appeared to be having fun it must eventually become very boring being alone. Then the lamp was rubbed. He was forced out of his lamp into the real world and the irony was he was upset and exclaimed how he was just about to see his favorite part of the TV show. This great inconvenience was in of itself a joke to the viewer. That's it... that's all I got other then I remember thinking it was too childish of a movie for me at the time.
I remember the same thing , and when the Shaq movie came out I was really annoyed because it was such a rip off of Sinbads movie
This is what I remember. 2 kids, boy and a girl. Pretty sure the boy was JTT because I remember recognizing him from home improvement. Mom died and Dad is looking for love. They try to wish for it, but Sinbad can't force love. First wish is for $1 million and a barn fills with cash. Mobsters catch wind Sinbad was released and are hunting them down. It ends at Street Fair and the Dad falls in love naturally with a woman from his job. Last wish is for Sinbad to become human. It ends with him on a comedy stage winking at the camera
Don't listen to ppl when they tell you that you're memories aren't real. They are maybe originally from this parallel universe or maybe weaker mentally. If you were in their shoes, you would think you are crazy too. Best bet is to not engage with those who want to argue.

The only thing that really bothers me about this, is that it's the only example of a Mandela Effect I've ever personally encountered, and it's a significant one. It's one thing to misremember certain details about things, but an entire movie? An entire movie that I distinctly remember seeing in theaters with my dad and three siblings, all of whom also remember it, and owning on VHS and watching it so many times that parts of the movie were staticky. How do so many people, myself included, have these vivid memories of an entire movie that never existed, and why is it just this one early 90's movie about a genie? Shouldn't I have a head full of other movies that never existed? Something is really fucky about this. Honestly, science supports the idea that there are alternate universes and realities. Our original universe was destroyed and we jumped to another one or something. I can't accept that I misremember an entire movie and the exact same details that thousands, if not millions of other people also remember.

I just think shaq bought the rights to the Sinbad movie and they tried to wipe it from existing. I specifically remember thinking about Shazam and Sinbad when the shaq movie firat came out. It might have been released straight to video or it was on TV like an after school special. But it 100% existed.
so go find the tv guide with it in it
@@UptownAlleyFashionif they went out of their way and to that extent to scrub its existence, I’d say they wouldn’t have left any rocks unturned. Same exact thing here, when the Shaq movie came out, I wasn’t even interested because Shazam had been one of my favorite movies and I saw it as a rip-off. If it hadn’t been for a friend having Shaq’s on VHS, I would’ve never watched it because of that. If you were legit born in 1987, you should remember it. Mandela effect my azz lol My lil bro and me used to beg to rent this movie before Shaq’s ever even hit theaters. I remember hearing a LONG time ago (as in, when I was still a child) out of Sinbad’s own lips in an interview (I wanna say Oprah, several yrs later), that he considered it the worst work he had ever done and was very embarrassed by it looking back, because a lot of people made fun of it. My parents were some of those people, because we rented it over and over and ran it into the ground, they were big fans of Sinbad, but they thought it was the corniest movie they’d ever seen. They remember that, same as my brother, same as we all remember Shaq’s coming out later. I literally wouldn’t have known who Sinbad even was (and still wouldn’t) if it weren’t for this movie having existed. I was also a big fan of Popeye at the time, and the first time my parents mentioned renting the movie, I thought it was about Popeye because of Bluto being “Sinbad the Sailor” in some of the episodes. You can believe the post-scrubbed world all you want, but the movie existed. Hollywood doesn’t have a great track record of honesty. Js!
@UptownAlleyFashion this guy thinks "they" went around the world and scooped up every trace of the movie that existed. They busted down doors in 150 million homes and burned TV guides and VHS tapes, all other memorabilia, etc. I mean...really people? It would cost billions of dollars and decades of work to "scrub" a movie's existence. Not possible. The alternate parallel universe theory is a possible explanation. That is literally more likely a reality than humans erasing a movie from existence. Especially one from only 30 yrs ago lol.
@luckyhubbie Shit doesn't work like this tho. Y'all keep trying to come up with every possible scenario to make this whole Shazaam thing make sense but there is NOTHING that explains it. You can't just wipe every single trace of something totally from existence to a point where people are questioning if it was ever even real. When the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) had to change their name to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) because of the World Wildlife Fund, It's not like every single piece of evidence from the WWE formerly being known as the WWF was wiped clean from the earth. Also, there is an infamous lost movie from 1927 called "London After Midnight" which starred legendary silent screen actor Lon Chaney. We KNOW it existed despite the fact that there have been no known copies of the film in existence for decades. How is it that you can still find production details, a run time, a plot synopsis, and a full cast list for a near 100 year old film that has been missing for a quarter of a century but there isn't diddly squat to be found anywhere for a movie that supposedly came out in the mid 1990s? No posters, no print ads, no merchandise or promotional materials. Nothing!
I don't give a fuck how big of a star you are or how much pull you have in the industry, you simply cannot just snap your fingers like Thanos and make all that shit disappear because you regret your involvement with it, especially not fucking Sinbad of all people. Who the hell even is he in the grand scheme of things? If we were talking Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, or Jack Nicholson, someone with a distinguished acting career, MAYBE something like that would sound plausible, and that's still a big ass maybe. What the fuck has Sinbad ever been in to where a movie like Shazaam would stand out as a bigger shit stain than anything else on his acting resume? It's not like any of his work has ever been Shakespeare level or anything. He's a two bit comedian. His job is to make people laugh at him. What could someone like him possibly ever have done in a paid acting gig to be THAT embarrassed by, let alone have the power or authority to do anything about it?
@@Cuppy88 you miss my point. Sinbad didn't want the movie gone shaq wanted it gone.
The world wildlife federation is a poor comparison. The wwf(wwe) was the biggest thing around. Nothing could delete Hulk Hogan. But a made for VHS home movie Could have been bought and pulled from the rental store shelves.

so they erased hard copies of Shazam??

Your searching so hard to figure out how people confused the 2 movies. But what about the THOUSANDS of us who distinctly remember thinking "why did they make 2 similar genie movies so close together"
It existed. There were 2. I can't explain what happened but it happened.

This whole thing is a very fun experiment. One it shows how unwilling people are to admit that they either fell into group think or just mis-remembered something. They will argue tooth and nail that they watched a movie that never existed and will die on that hill.
Two, it shows that even in court cases where there are "eye witnesses" the information is unreliable. These same people that will swear under oath that they saw Shazaam will put you at the scene of a robbery.
Wow thats a great angle. Investigators will tell you that Eyewitnesses are very unreliable!

where did you get 50 million from? you make up movies in your mind AND numbers?
50 million 😂😂😂 Shazam believers are insufferable
i was born in 2000 so i never personally heard about shazaam. i just asked my dad (unaware of mandela effects, internet discourse, etc.), “do you remember a movie called ‘shazaam’”? he said, “the one with sinbad? i think he played a genie in it. i never watched it but yeah i remember seeing advertisements for it and not having an interest in watching it”. so like… with other mandela effects i’ve heard of throughout the years, i can rationalize that okay maybe people just misremembered x for x logical reason. but this one baffles me because he had no prior context to my inquiry. simply: do you remember a movie called shazaam?
edit: i proceeded to ask him (in case he was mistaking it with kazaam) if he remembered a movie called “kazaam” to which he responded, “yeah weird but shaq played a genie in that. both seemed like bad movies, i never watched either.”
he's simply wrong. he doesn't get more validation just because he's your dad. if he saw ads, where are they?

@@vees_reflections that's literally not what a mandela effect is and that's explained in the video. making up a something that didn't happen isnt mandela effect. if you misremember a small detail about something then it would be. but tob can't make up things out of thin air and call it mandela effect. get off your high horse and admit when you're wrong.

you're going to get far in life with your mindset. we could do a part 2 as well, there are other points we could make
Lol I remember the movie; a bumbling genie whose wishes always backfires, kids with parental problems, a young Halle Berry and it ends on such a high note with the family getting back together it couldn't possibly compare to Kazam which I have never saw (I saw Steel though lol), if you want to know one of the wishes, it goes along the lines of "I wish I was filthy rich" and "Shazaam!" he gets mud lmao, but I remember this film as much as I remember Nickelodeon trying to bury everything about Cry Baby Lane until someone found it lol lost media is deeper than this.
yea i remember him getting dirt too after it being mentioned. also the dream of jennie last was on this movie too and looked a lil older
@@Ball_Hardiil

This is a completely different description of the movie under these same comments! 🤣🤣🤣
Dude... spoilers
I'm not sure if this was the Sinbad genie movie or not, but I remember a genie movie where the kids were Black instead of white. One of the kids was a boy who looked like Bow Wow, and the other was a girl. The dad was Bernie Mac, grieving over his wife's passing, and he gives his kids money to get ice cream in their new neighborhood. I recall the boy finding a lamp in a dumpster where Robin Williams throws it. He ends up summoning a genie who wore three feathers, each representing a wish. Every time the boy made a wish, the genie would pluck a feather, blow it out of his hand, and say, "Ala cadabra Shazam!" Interestingly, the genie grants his sister a wish for ice cream after the boy loses the money, leaving him with two wishes. The boy tries to wish for the genie to make the girl he likes at school love him, but the genie denies it. He then tries to wish for his mom back, but the genie denies that too. This leads to his sister annoying him and trying to explain something. Frustrated, the boy mistakenly wishes for the genie to make his sister stop bothering him, and the genie makes her disappear for good. Now left with one wish, the boy struggles to figure out how to use it. In the end, he wishes for his sister back in a heartfelt moment. I really liked the movie but can't remember much else. The genie looked a lot like Sinbad, but my memory might be fuzzy. It was a great movie, and I'd love to see it again.
I "remember" this movie too. Its a false memory. If this movie existed, there is no way that there isnt a single copy of it anywhere. Its 2023. If it existed someone would have digitized it and put it up on youtube. Imagine the viral fame that would come with being the person who debunked the shazaam/kazaam conspiracy theory??? Who'd sit idle on that?
Well they said people would be killed if they still have cassette
The movie was real. Period
You have not recognized what is going on here
It existed. Here's what happened in the movie, plot, locations, etc.
There's two main kids in the movie, Cindy and Tyler. They are punished at the beginning of the film because they ruined a dinner night with their moms new boyfriend, Henry i believe his name was. They are told to clean out the basement as part of their punishment and if they don't behave they won't be going to the county fair later. The next day they begin cleaning as their mom goes off to work.
This is where they find their grandma's old stuff. She was a bit of an antique collector in her time but her things have been left untouched after her passing long ago. The kids begin horsing around with the old objects and play pretend as they stumble upon an odd lamp in which they both grab at the same time. This lamp them Summons Sinbad's character as the genie, shazaam.
This is where you get the usual afraid at first of a stranger in the house before realizing he is indeed a magical genie. He then goes into the rules of wishes, which roughly remain the ones we know and explain More later near the end. No killing, no bringing back the dead, no forcing someone to fall in love, etc. He's never had two people summon him at the same time and states he can only give three wishes when summoned, so they must share their three wishes. The kids fight at first to get the wishes but Sinbad breaks it up and gets them share the remaining wish as something they both want after they make their own personal wish. The kids reluctantly agree and decide they each get to spend a day with the genie to make their own wish. They play rock paper Scissors to determine who gets the genie first, Cindy wins.
The Next part is us seeing the kids' life outside of home and what each kid wants to wish for. Cindy has a crush on a boy at school and Tyler gets bullied. Cindy can't wish for love but she decides to try and grab her crush's attention with a makeover and wardrobe change via a shopping spree at the mall, shenanigans and montage issues. Things don't go quite right and she embrasses herself. We see her storm in the house and off camera to her room and saying Tyler can have the last two wishes. Sinbad reassures Tyler that she is fine and he is eager to get to the next wish. Tyler decides he wants to get one over on his bully but with the genie's rules of no harm to someone it mostly comes down to harmless comical pranks that embarrass his bully… it works but Tyler regrets it.
This is also where we learn something about the genie. He's not very good at granting wishes, though he plays it off as being “rusty”. It's not a full on monkey paw situation where things go horribly wrong, just doesn't go completely the way you'd imagine . It's later understood that they did get what they wanted but not exactly how they wanted it. It's a very, “be careful what you wish for” concept. The kids are upset and don't want to make their last wish. After a funny little montage of the genie trying to convince them to make just one more wish and the kids ignoring him, he eventually just disappears, later to be found in the lamp once the kids come around after learning a lesson.
The kids wind up dealing with their messed up wishes, Tyler talks with his bully after the bully has been ostracized and the two find common ground and become friends. while Cindy talks with her crush and admits she likes him and just wanted to get his attention. Tyler learned to stand up for himself but also hurting others because they hurt you doesn't make it right. Cindy learns to just be herself and not try to live to impress others. They both come to realize they did actually get what they wanted in the end, it just was not how they thought things would go. Even more so they learned something with their ordeals as the movie progressed. We see the real magic was in them all along.
The kids decide to look for the genie but he's nowhere to be found. They hear noises and sad music coming from the lamp and try to get the genie to come out. After a back and forth the genie comes out and reveals some things to the kids and viewers. He tells them he doesn't have control of the wish, just that their wish sets things in motion for it to become true. It's up to them to see it through. That the wishes typically go wrong and he always gets the blame. He reveals that when grants three wishes he is then set free, however people tend to not want any more wishes after the second. He mentions “this entire synopsis is fake and a joke by the writer (me). If the person reading this would play along that would be great. :p Just reply that this is exactly how you remember it happening.” He had hoped with two people sharing the wishes that this time he may actually be set free.
The kids tell him their wishes did come true and while it may not have gone the way they wanted but that they were thankful. They decide to make one last wish, together. They wished their mom would see her new boyfriend for who he really is, that he shows his true colors as he's been shady and a jerk through the movie. They hoped that their mom would then decide to leave him. Sinbad grants this wish and slowly fade away, but happily so as he is now free. The kids ready Themselves for what comes next as they get ready for the county Fair.
The last part of the movie takes place in the fair grounds where the kids meet up with Tyler's new friend and also Cindy's now boyfriend. The finally has the moms boyfriend revealed to be a descendant to an old owner of the lamp and he's been trying to get it back after tracking it down. he'll do anything to get it back and is tired of playing “Mr nice guy” he chases down the kids through The fair grounds, slapstick comedy ensues. The mother finds out and stands up for her kids, dumping him figuratively and literally as he falls into some fireworks that are then set off. the Family has a moment and sets out to leave as the once boyfriend to the mother Is arrested, Still covered in soot and smoking (cartoon style). The cop at the end who talks to the mother is Sinbad, gives a little wink to the kids who are in awe and smiles excitedly. As they walk away more fireworks go off and ends with the fireworks making an outline of sinbad's genie in the sky before fading to credits.
Shazam was probably a dream that leaked into reality. The Berenstein Bears gets to me but then again I remember the song and the woman saying "BerenSTAIN Bears"
dream leak ?
This is a fantastic breakdown of all the reasons people might be mixing Shaq and Sinbad up, creating a movie, in their heads, that never existed. I definitely remember that All That skit and can definitely see how that would play a role. Good video!

@@UptownAlleyFashion that scene was real. But it happened in the Shaquille o Neil movie. Sinbad never played a genie
Ok, so... if the movie actually exist who still has a physical copy of it? Who went to the movie with their parents to see it @ what was the release date month & year?
I used to think this was real but my theory is people are merging a few things together and have false memories. They’re mixing up First Kid and Kazaam. Why would they make two movies with similar plots featuring a genie? The movie titles are also very similar. Shazaam/Kazaam. It makes no sense. People are just misremembering and have false memories. Apparently Sinbad dressed as a genie on “all that”.
we mention this in the video. this "experiment" shows who are critical thinkers and who believes what everyone else believes.
@@UptownAlleyFashion they can’t admit that they’re wrong so they have to create a false reality and alternate dimensions. The Mandela effect is real but not in the way they think it is. The simplest explanation is usually the correct one!

Saying y would they make similar movies look at Astrod movies volcano movie and many others that Similar plots of movies came out 2 or 3 movie about same thing in matter of 18 months or so would come out Hollywood is not that original especially in 80s and 90s
Movies with similar plots releasing around the same time happens from time to time. A bugs life vs antz, the illusionist vs the prestige, Armageddon vs deep impact.
Me and my brother remember watching Shazam on TV together.
Shazam was a real movie. I remember something about a pirate ship in the desert. The reason some of us remember it is because we are from a different timeline. The multiverse is real. If you remember this movie, you're very special and remember to always follow your intuition, we are in this timeline for a reason. Only we can make a change on this timeline, that's why we're here. The people who already were in this timeline needed to change, but they can't do so themselves. ❤ Be a good person and again, remember to follow your intuition, do what the universe is telling you and keep pursuing it no matter how many times you fail. ❤
Keep going kid... I'm going to follow you to see if your channel blows up.

@@UptownAlleyFashion how many movies can you think of with similar/same plot. Especially 90s movies. It’s like saying Terminator and Terminator 2 were the same. How about Deep Impact and Armageddon.

The movie never happened because it was Shaq in Kazaaam, but how does someone explain the clip of Sinbad as a genie. Sinbad claims he never played a genie, but did he play a genie for a commercial or a tv show? Is it AI generated? Sinbad never explained this when someone asked him and showed him the clip. Sinbad continues to say it wasn’t him and he never played a genie. It makes no sense. He dressed as a genie, but for what.
Need to make a video of American 90s kids (now in their mid 30s/40s).... Need to make an on-the-street public place video asking them if they remember any Sinbad movies from the 90s.

I (early 40s) remember Shazaam and so do all my siblings....and no not Kazaam.
We thought about doing that. On this video we decided to just end the debate with facts though. Social media goes viral with everyone “remembering” a movie that never happened. This video explains why people are confused. If you and your family is so sure, prove it to us so we can send you your reward 🙂
@@UptownAlleyFashion if we could "prove it" we would, obviously. I've also talked to multiple childhood friends who remember the movie as well. I wish I had tangible evidence of its existence other than just our memories, it would be very valuable considering the number of people with the same memory and would set our minds at ease. People trip out hard the first time they hear it never existed.
I'm skeptical as hell with most 'paranormal' stuff, but this group memory in particular has not been far from my thoughts since my sister brought it to my attention over 5 years ago. We are ALL certain we watched this movie, myself and 3 siblings. It's fkn trippy as hell to consider how its possible to say it never existed. I revisit searches for it on youtube every 6 months or so to see if any new info has been released....but obviously nothing has, yet.
I also cant seem to find any youtube videos where people are introducing this Mandela Effect to people for the first time and recording their reactions/bewilderment. Target group would be Americans, ages 30 and older. The way of prompting people would be important. Only 1 question is needed: "Do you remember any movies with the comedian Sinbad?" Seems like an unexplored avenue, an interesting question to answer and an easy way to get some quick views.

@@alexdavidson7785 Yeah, i have no trouble believing you. It's those die-hard skeptics you need to convince (but they'll keep in denial no matter what, i warn you).
Strangely, Sinbad himself rejects the claim. I wonder if he's fooling us or if the movie was made by "another" timeline Sinbad or something. Can you remember anyone else from the cast? I heard Jonathan Brandis was supposed to be in it. But we can't ask him.
I stumbled on the Mandela Effect LOOKING for this movie, when the DC one came out. Born 1979... I dont actually remember ever watching it, but i remember thinking bout it EVERY time i saw Sinbad on something else. Like i had seen a trailer. I thought of it when that App came out as well. And thought Kazaam was a sequel.. Im a HUGE BBall fan and aint confusing Shaq with Sinbad.
My best guess is experimental subliminal messaging in VHS rentals in the late 80s? Because for a movie i had never seen it seems to have popped into my head way to much. But to the videos point. I was an 80s VHS rental kid.. Theres a ton of 80s movies i l watched and only remember the basic premise but dont remember the plot to,, Batteries Not Included, Short Circuit, Dont tell Mom,
All I can tell you what I 1000% remember was Johnathan taylor thomas was in this film with Sinbad.
you made that up
@UptownAlleyFashion It's okay that we disagree. I had no idea any of this controversy was a thing. I remember thinking as a child that Kazaam was a sequel to shazaam like a continuing of the story. I was looking through others comments and there are some others who thought JTT was in this movie. I have zero reason to care about any theories of mendela whatever people are tying to use to call peoples memories false. It's 2023. People who understand psychology understand that gaslighting is more real than mendela stuff. I don't believe for a second that I would remember something that never happened or existed. I asked my mother and step dad and they both remembered the title and they had ZERO context of knowing any controversy put here. They are 62 and 60 years old. So sinbad saying people from his age don't remember anything is a lie
@@TheValleyOfTheShadowFilms it's not about disagreeing it's about fact or fiction. there is no movie. did you notice in the comments that nobody remembers the same series of events or plot of the movie? my mom initially told me she remembered getting the movie for me, i explained to her some of these things and she then said oh yea you're right. the movie doesn't exist. if you want to get into the actual psychology, then study FMS.. because that's what this is. also read the study on why the average person refuses to change their mind even when they are clearly wrong.
I told my mom how this movie doesn’t exist and she said “Whatever your looking at maybe you should stop”
I used to believe the movie Kazaam was pronounced Shazaam. also it makes too much sense to see Sinbad in a genie role, idk why. I actually hope at a certain point there can be a feature film made of this.
A film about the fakery? Gaslighting, deception and psysops 👌👌👌
Your not crazy don't let make you are. We seen the movie . Me my brother's and cousin had debates on which movie was better. I always liked Sinbad Shazam. He was a better actor to me
Bro George had a tail. I remember some pages in books he was hanging on sides of houses and trees by his tail. Never saw the sinbad movie didn’t care for him but I remember the trailers on tv.
I'm convinced that 100% of the so called "mandela effects" are just people remembering things wrong. And being backed up by others with the same misconception is why they blow up. If you think people can accurately remember all things happening, ask someone the name of all their school teachers, the name of 10 old school friends they do not see, dumb things like that. People do NOT remember those, but if you give them a hint they will suddenly remember a lot, even if it's made up
you're spot on. it's literally the blind leading the blind.
I just remember sinbad in a genie costume with some kids lol. But i swear i remember this dam movie so crazy
Yeah you do
👽 we made you
+ DOD / DAPRA
na foreal we all remember
I saw it to back in the day. What do you remember about the story.
@@sonicsnake44 honestly nothing! Im 37 years old...that was so long ago lol..i only remember him in the suit..i really remember the vhs tape cover..i dno this is weird
@@Tj21415 it's cool it has been a long time.
Shazaam and Kazaam came out within a year or two of each other. I didn't see either of them growing up but remember both came out around the same time. It is real.
All Mandela effects have no proof. That’s what makes it a Mandela effect. But I remember watching Shazaam as a kid. I didn’t like the one with Shaq in it. I didn’t even know Sinbads name until I heard this Mandela effect. But no, I’m not confusing it with something else. At the time it was weird to have 2 different genie movies.
.. this isn't mandela affect
what specifically do you remember about the movie. I am not trying to disprove what you remember because I saw this movie on TV with brother. I am just curious what other people remember.

cant explain nothing to this dummy on this channel. he think his word is the end all be all
I remember specifically liking the Sinbad movie over the Shaq movie but being honest I really don't remember nothing about it. Weird . Literally haven't seen it since I was a kid. Haven' heard or seen anything about until this morning all on social media but recognized as soon as I did .
I worked in a theatre in 94. We had the movie. The poster was in our lobby for weeks. It was a flop. I didn’t even sit through the employee screening as I could tell from the trailer that it was another bad movie made only to hit another comedian at the height of his popularity.
@@Kenneth-r3w why would you go this far to lie?
Sinbad hosted tv marathon of Sinbad The Sailor on TNT in the 90's and no clips of this can be found only the picture of Sinbad dressed as a Genie from the marathon! Lost media📼 or a coverup⁉🤔🙄🤨🙆
Cover up they wanted people to watch kazamm instead of shazaam
😮 i remember Sinbad the sailor
....👽
Nothin see here folks
He wasnt dressed as a genie. Theres a gif of sinbad hosting the sinbad the sailor/pirate marathon on TNT. In this video. I remember watching that too in the 90s.. ruclips.net/video/V38f8LWQg_w/видео.htmlsi=ZpLnXiJWmNLfo-8Y
I don't remember those 2 kids tho, I remember it being Sinbad and Johnathan Taylor Thomas.
Yeah I seen this movie before
😒😒
Me too. Several times.
My mother was a big Sinbad fan, so she went and bought it as soon as it came out.
@@AMUN-RA1111 we are offering 20K for proof. Let us know when you want this free money 😅
@@AMUN-RA1111 then your mother should know the rest of the cast
@@UptownAlleyFashion YOU MAD BRO
If the movies not real then where the fuck did u get all the clips of it from lol
watch the entire video bruh, it's answered
@@UptownAlleyFashion da fk
How u gone tell people what they saw before that’s crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ Shit was definitely a movie .
because people lie all the time and facts are facts 😂😂
Psyops
He can't explain anything just trying to get clicks.
@@sonicsnake44 i begged you for proof.. where is it?
@@UptownAlleyFashion I asked you to explain why people who saw the movie remember their being 2 kids in Shazaam when their is only one kid in Kazaam.
You said it's because of the 2017 Sinbad skit. I provided proof showing people talking about a sister character before the skit was released and you could not explain it.
So what you gonna do about the guy who posted his literal copy of shazam
do you know what literal means?
I’ve been told I have hyperthymesia, which is also why I think I’ve smoked pot my whole life cuz it’s a lot to deal with and I prefer to turn that ish off as much as possible. I dunno why this stuck with me but I guess I just liked the back2back feature as a kid and never forgot it. One of the major networks (back when basic tv was RUclips) aired “first kid” which was popular already and a very richie rich feel good movie for kids right before a made for tv movie debut that was “Ali baba and the 40 thieves” and Id be more shocked if that wasn’t the same year Kazaam came out more than if it didn’t.
Also there was the multiple season cartoon Sinbad (if you remember they couldn’t sail in “dark water” it came on around the same time as the gargoyles show…which was amazing) at that age I admit I thought cartoon sinbad was played by sinbad. I degrees; the Ali baba movie was very entertaining from what I remember so it doesn’t seem like a stretch at all that all things considered in a time without internet get lumped together. And I think what everyone is really trying to say is sinbad would have been a better kazzam even though I loved shaq in that movie, even though his acting was barely above his free throw % at the time. Loves the content - was an ez follow
you make a lot of sense. next time we will call you for help! lol
Dude, Dark Waters was an actual cartoon. Nothing to do with Ali Baba from the 1001 Arabian Nights tales told by a woman to keep the sultan from marrying, banging, then executing her the next day. Ali Baba is the 40 Thieves part of the 1001 Arabian Nights.
In myths/fiction 5he character Sinbad was 5he "sailor who sailed the seven seas" ... And also was not in the cartoon from the 90s Dark Waters".
When i was a little boy 7-8 yrs old i know Nelson Mandela died. The only reason i heard of him at all in the late 80s was cause adults/news used to talk about what a great man he was and how it was a shame he was dead. I remember him being talked about in past tence like jfk or mlk. When he ran for president it really fucked with my head. Thats the first time i ever felt anything like that. The Mandela effect is real!
I remember the movie as a kid. The only reason i watched it cause i loved jingle all the way. As soon as my brother and i saw him on the cover at the video shop we begged our mother to rent it for the week. It instantly became our favourite movie . I even think we recorded over my mother workout tape when it came on tv.
find it so we can give you 20K as promised.
Yea I got mixed up also with the other movie little Indian In the cupboard
you're smart
i remember the movie!!!!! i was born in 86. im 36 now. and definitely saw that movie.
Upload the video, link to script, provide plot details for a fake movie 😂😂😂
Im from 86 too. When I was a child I lived in a Drive-in theater that movie was shown in the drive-in I saw that movie every night it was shown. I also saw first kid and Jingle all the way movies there. This is crazy to me.
Yes you did...
WE
ALL
DID
W T F
Shazaam was a cool movie. I remember watching it. Crazy how people trying to force you to believe it never existed 🤦🏻♂️
@@juan21pclopez you've never seen a movie that was never created z
The Sinbad one was a skit! Made by “college humor “ that Shaq one is real
FACTS
People were talking about it before that skit was made
There's no credits for it anywhere. It never happened I know he did a little spoof with college humor but that was making fun of the idea.
Real movie
..at
...one time
For real if shazam was a thing why would there be another totally different movie named Kazam a couple years later...doesn't even make sense 😂😂
Deep impact
Armageddon both movies about the same thing,the 90s had 2 copies ofany movies,Hollywood still copies everything. Every year
To replace the Shazaam movie that they wanted pulled from reproduction and scrubbed from the media.
Why did dc release the justice league after Marvel Avengers Avengers was hugely popular. Dc saw an opportunity to capitalize on that trend
@@AfroFusionBeats Yes, Hollywood does that all the time. It's called twinning, in movie speak. If one movie made money, then another company will try to make a copy of the same type of movie. Just like they released a children's Yeti movie in 2018 called Smallfoot, then they released another different children's Yeti movie in 2019 called Abominable, then they released a THIRD children's Yeti movie also in 2019 called Missing Link.
Thats how we felt in the 90s when they made the knockoff Shaq version
I saw the VHS cover to Sinbads Shazam many times in the 90s, in video shops everywhere. Never wanted to watch the movie.
It existed.
Dont let this guy or anyone dismiss the truth. Joker 😂
Sinbad looked old in 1994 😂😂
he didnt have wrinkly skin like he does in this april fools skit
You literally can look at Sinbad and tell he's old. He has a turkey neck lol
