    The Mandela Effect
    The Mandela Effect is a collective misremembering of a fact or event. Various theories have been proposed to explain what causes it, some more sensible than others.

    One type of memory glitch that has generated a lot of Internet buzz in recent years is called the “Mandela Effect.” In simplest terms, the Mandela Effect is an instance of collective misremembering. Examples include lines from famous movies that everyone gets wrong (e.g., Humphrey Bogart’s saying “Play it again, Sam” in Casablanca), erroneous dates and numbers (apparently many people answer “52” when asked how many states there are in the U.S.), and historical misconceptions (are you among those who recall learning in school that cotton gin inventor Eli Whitney was black?).

    I have spent a seemingly endless amount of time looking into "Shazam"

    ETA: MANY people seem to remember a movie like Kazaam ,but with Sinbad as a Genie, both being released around the same time. But now there is no trace of such a movie ever existing.

    Shazam was a tv show in the 70s. I used to watch it as a kid.

    Oh wait that's Shamwow

    Shamwow is truly annoying.

    Shazam was on in tandem with Almighty Isis. I used to watch them back to back on Saturday am.

    Shazam
    A young boy, able to transform into the superhero Captain Marvel, travels the country fighting evil and helping people.
    Stars: Michael Gray, Les Tremayne, Jackson Bostwick http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071050/

    Almighty Isis

    An archaeologist gains an amulet that allows her to transform into the superheroine goddess Isis and fight evil.
    Creator: Marc Richards
    Stars: JoAnna Cameron, Brian Cutler, Joanna Pang http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072516/

    The Mandela Effect event she is referring to is:

    Did Sinbad Play a Genie in the 1990's Movie 'Shazaam'?

    The answer is Sindad did not play a Genie, ever (it was Shaq) and the movie was called Kazaam (1996) not Shazam.
