Shazam! "Out of Focus" October 16, 1976
An aspiring filmmaker captures a robbery on film. Now, the thieves are out to get the film, but he sees it as his ticket to success in a local film festival. Can Captain Marvel and Isis ensure this film makes it to the screen while keeping the young Spielberg safe?
It's the final episode of the Shazam! series as John and Richard discuss the location of this particular episode, the professionalism of Michael Gray, the clunky resolution to a story that Isis could have solved with a simple incantation, and Shazam/Isis fandom. Plus: We have two flashbacks of our own in this episode!
It's all here and we want to hear from you on what you think of the episode. Write us as ShazamIsisPodcast@gmail.com.
Moral: “We've all been faced by temptation - a chance to win a contest, maybe cheat on an exam or make some easy money in a dishonest way, but most of us know better than to fall for things like that. In today's story, Jim learned what Zeus meant when he said, 'Those who act dishonestly to win, walk in disgrace, perhaps even in danger.' So play it safe and play it smart. Don't be fooled by temptation. The honest way is the best way."
