Kazaam (1996) Was Even Worse Than You Remember | Shaq's Genie Movie Reviewed
Subscribe to our newsletter so the algorithm can't stop you from finding us- https://the-cinema-psychos-show.kit.com/9e9a267e76 In 1996, Touchstone Pictures looked at Shaquille O'Neal, looked at their checkbook, and said: "Genie movie. Let's go." Nobody wrote a real script. Nobody asked questions. And somehow, nobody noticed the kid protagonist falls nine stories into an abandoned building in the first five minutes and should be dead for the entire rest of the film. This week on the Cinema Psychos Show, Brian and John are digging into Kazaam — one of the most competently filmed disasters in 90s kids movie history. We're talking a genie who forgets about wishes because he's chasing a rap career, a villain whose criminal empire is 100% bootleg CDs, and a third act where Shaq transforms into the Teletubbies golden sun and dunks the bad guy. As a basketball. We also get into: * The Sinbad Shazam Mandela Effect (and why people are wrong) * Why Steel might actually be a better Shaq movie (we said what we said) * Max's deadbeat bootlegger dad and the child support he definitely didn't pay * The historical evidence that Kazaam caused the eruption of Pompeii * Letterboxd reviews that go places we were not prepared for CHAPTERS: Introduction and Show Open [00:00] Sinbad Shazam Mandela Effect [01:00] Shaq's Film Career and Childhood Movie Tastes [03:00] Podcast Housekeeping and Follow Calls [05:36] Launching the Weekly Newsletter [12:00] Newsletter Content and Audience Interaction [14:00] Kazaam Plot Synopsis [16:00] First Watches and Nostalgia [18:00] Max's Home Life and Bullying [21:00] Releasing the Genie and First Wish [26:00] Family Drama and Absent Father [30:00] Bootleg CD Crime and Rap Career [36:00] Climax and Absurd Ending [42:00] Audience Reviews [48:00] Final Thoughts and Plugs [56:00] Follow The Cinema Psychos Show on Socials ❤️🔥: Discord: https://discord.gg/QWPUCGCuVC Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cinemapsychosshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cinemapsychospod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cinemapsychospod Threads: https://www.threads.net/@cinemapsychospod Listen to The Cinema Psychos Show on: Spotify: https://rebrand.ly/0v6eeno Apple: https://rebrand.ly/j5nrkp7  Amazon: https://rebrand.ly/5x5hzng Goodpods: https://rebrand.ly/picstv6 OR LISTEN ON YOUR FAVORITE PODCAST APP! https://cinemapsychosshow.com/follow MAIN TITLE: “Red Alert”  AUTHOR: Jack Waldenmaier PUBLISHER: Music Bakery Publishing (BMI) WARNING: UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE MUSIC CONTAINED IN THIS PRODUCTION IS SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.
