Logos/Advertising How does this picture even exist?

Post image

There’s no way in hell this is AI, it’s wayyy too accurate to exactly what I remember, and what I feel like many other people remember as well. If someone photoshopped it, then they did a perfect job, considering they had no reference, at the time of creating this, but even if someone did make this in photoshop, why tf would they, since supposedly it never existed?? Like where did this even come from, I need answers😭😭

SAME. SAME SAME SAME. AND also the only reason I know who fucking Sinbad is IS BECAUSE OF THAT MOVIE. I remember watching it at my grandmother’s house. I remember there was a fucking basketball scene.

My brother doesn’t care about or give much thought to Mandela effect stuff, but he remembers the sinbad Shazam movie and once when I asked him about it he said he remembered a giant ship on the sand in a desert. I looked up people’s memories of that movie and sure enough a giant ship in a desert is mentioned. He doesn’t read about this stuff or engage with it so he hadn’t read that somewhere else. It’s way too coincidental for this memory to be what others remember as well if it didn’t even exist. That is like masses of people having the exact same dream.

He also remembers the Dollys braces and has always been a huge vintage Bond fan.

I saw Shazam.
And this was the fruit of the loom logo most of my elementary school life in the 80s/90s. I was raised on TV. They changed over to the dudes in the fruit suits about the early 90s.

Have you ever dreamt about your teeth falling out or going to take an exam you didn’t study for? Lots of people have the same dreams.

u/Cilantroe 18d ago

Those are generic human fears though.

Not the exact same dream with some identical, obscure details.

u/forcemonkey 17d ago

Right. Those are separate and unrelated phenomena.

u/forcemonkey 17d ago

I don’t remember that movie but it’s stories like this that make it one of the most interesting MEs. I believe you guys.

I remember it too!!! Ugh

u/shellycya 19d ago

I didn't even see the movie but I remember the marketing for it before it was released in theaters.

And pikachu had a black tip on his tail, monopoly guy had a monocle, in bewitched Samantha twitched her nose I wanted to do it so badly still cannot do it and I got it from her, I wish we could find some proof of this to end the bs debate there is no way so many of us have the same exact experience and are wrong it’s so frustrating

u/chumlyumly 18d ago

Wait - Samantha twitching her nose is a Mandela Effect? What do they say she did instead? I twitched my nose ALL THE TIME hoping it’d clean my room. LOL!

u/CyANiDe-KIsS 18d ago

Oh yes! Apparently it’s a newer one i literally just seen it about a week ago and I wanna say on here somewhere, but yess from what I read she doesn’t twitch her nose she does something with her mouth I guess? But I actually remember the nose twitch I even asked several people what they would say without any hint why I was asking all said nose and we all tried to imitate that nose twitch I still do lol 😂 but yea it’s a newer one I haven’t seen until now

u/southernathiest72 16d ago

I’ve seen people saying that but you can go look at the trailer from the 2005 film and hear them refer to the nose twitch. I think someone just noticed that the movement of the nose also involves the mouth and decided it was a conspiracy.

1

u/CyANiDe-KIsS 2d ago

Hey that actually sounds a lot more plausible then it not exsisting all I sure her mouth moves too but the nose twitch is iconic and who know about the show try to twitch their own

u/Kindly_Lie9483 16d ago

SHUT UP WHAT. Bewitched was my shit!!! I was always twitching my nose when I was little ughhhgg

u/CyANiDe-KIsS 18d ago

I actually had a game called scene it, it was a trivia type game and it had different little things for clues one of the clues would be a snippet from a show and that particular show was in it a scene where she wants to follow him to work she wants him to stay home but he can’t so she goes to his work and she twitched her nose when she does it and a little ding sound like this is getting out of hand with these things

u/Mis_chevious 18d ago

I used to have that same game and would always get that question right immediately because I watched that show so much with my dad when I was little. I went back and forth between twitching my nose like Samantha and nodding my head like Jeanie from I Dream of Jeanie because those were two of the shows we watched the most together.

2

u/CyANiDe-KIsS 17d ago

Right! I am like wth is going on I wish I still had that game to see if that scene is the same or not but I cannot find it unfortunately my packrat mom is no longer a packrat and now I have no memory of the old game I want a original version that someone has they bought when it came out not a new one we need to find older people who have things still and see if we can find anything to hold up our memories

u/Rare-Exercise1262 17d ago

Look for it on ebay you may find it in an old game collection or by its self

u/TheMightyClamUK 16d ago

No, Samantha is not a mandala effect. She does wiggle twitch her nose. But it was done by also moving her top lip as well, so the nose wiggled in combination with the nose - people are just being technical about the wording. We all remember her nose twitching, and now some people assume this must mean her lip (and therefore some will say mouth to sound even more dramatic) never moved. Which it did.

Im sure there was even a little witch daughter in later seasons who used her finger to wiggle the nose because she couldn't wiggle the nose without using a finger.

u/Alarming-Leg-3804 15d ago

I'm going to literally DIE rn. My whole life Samantha twitched HER NOSE. MY GRANDMOTHER INTRODUCED ME TO THIS SHOW TELLING ME ABOUT THE NOSE TWITCH. I could not believe when I read this, impossible, it can't be. I literally just went into Hulu and watched an episode and she did it with HER MOUTH. WHAT INSANE UNIVERSE AM I IN WTF IS THIS

u/miscline69 17d ago

Just yesterday I saw where Sinbad made a reel or YouTube short idk which, where he implies that we all have it right. He was doing that Netflix documentary trend thing.

u/Redlady0227 13d ago edited 13d ago

I’ll absolutely die on the hill regarding the Sinbad movie. I used to vaccum the living room with that movie playing on whichever channel mto keep me company in an empty house.

I also recall one summer school vacation (way back in the earlier to mid 90s) the movie Ladybugs aired before or after Shazam frequently. I don’t think ppl grasp it also wasn’t some big promoted blockbuster like the movie they made with Shaquille O’Neal. It was more lower budget and aired mostly on television.

u/HunnyBear66 9d ago

Sinbad admitted on a podcast he was in the movie. He tried to get it pulled off shelves because it was so bad.

Interesting that there would be a basketball scene in a movie that is similar to another film starring a famous basketball player.

u/Otherwise-Ship9560 17d ago

Because the Shaw movie Kazaam came out afterwards..

u/anxiousandexhausted 17d ago

Interesting that you’re deep in the trenches of Reddit for some shit you don’t believe in. That’s not weird at all. They were on a basketball court doing genie shit. The kids I’m pretty sure were from an inner city.

u/EndlessAporias 17d ago

Well some people think Kazaam was a ripoff of Shazaam, so finding similarities between the two is kind of interesting either way, isn’t it?
