The problem is how much do we really know these kids? The kids and then their Shazam selves. You might as well have a whole set of difference characters not related to each other.

With the exception of the oldest, the female red one who is the same. But it also brings a point where the older these kids get and look the less likely they will look like the adult versions. Like how old is Billy? 17-18? By that point he should look very much like what a fully grown adult version of himself should look like.

The end is odd. How and where did they go? Same clothes going from Philadelphia to maybe somewhere in Greece? Amazon island?

It was so dull I gave up after about 1/2 hour!

It was the realm of the gods. The tree was there.

Did you not see the final scenes?

I also finished Season 5 of Agents of SHIELD. With the last few episodes of the season overlapping with Infinity War, I was expecting the season finale to end with some of the team disappearing with Thanos' snap.

I think I am still on season 3 of Agents of Shield. I probably should get back on that. But I have to watch The Witcher S3, finish Picard S3, start S2 of Strange New Worlds, then probably Ashoka. Let alone sitcoms I have to catch up on.

But, having watched shows like Space Academy, Jason of Star Command, Galactica 1980, Transformers, Star Wars Holiday Special, Star Wars: Ewoks, Star Wars: Droids, I figured, "How much worse could it be?"

They certainly gave it their best shot.

When the first film came out, I was completely entertained by the super-sized silliness. This sequel has upped the silly level times ten or more. Still a fun way to spend a rainy morning.

Discovery S1 didn't bother me as much as others did, but for only a ten episode season, there was no need to go to the Mirror Universe. Focus on that Klingon War that you started. Though with how Trek is now it certainly made a mess of things.
