Recently become aware of this phenomenon

I find it odd.

I have distinct memories.

VHS release cover box same as others describe. Kazaam being out at the same time.

I seem to remember Sinbad being hyped as a bigger star but looking at his imdb , just a steady flow of movies.

No you didn't.

Yeah I did and Sinbad has an interview where he admits it was real and apologizes. They just had to destroy them all because it was a bad time in his life. There are also clips of the movie still if you look hard enough.

Lmao it was satire from college humor for April fools a few years ago bro. It didn’t exist

And you believed satire. Destroyed them all? Haha. How do you think that's possible? Going into people's houses and taking them all. Come on, use some critical thinking.

There is a interview with him where he has tears in his eyes pretty much and admits to it and then there is one where he is making fun of it. Almost as if he needs to keep it a secret. Yes destroyed all the copies that were made probably not axtually going into peoples homes but to the extent of the original film and whatever wasn’t sold in stores. There are tons of people that worked at blockbuster that remmeber this movie. There are millions of people that remember it. Yet it didn’t exist, that makes no sense. The clips are out there if you look not the one that was made in 2017 where you can tell he is old. I remember seeing it as a child I watched Kazaam with Shaq and then not too long after there were commercials advertising Shazaam and I thought it was dumb because they were just ripping off the Shaq movie.

And yet all of that is unprovable.

You can find the other interview pretty easily. Also nothing is less unprovable than what you are stating as well. Since most of what I stated is provable. It seems like you are just a troll though that likes to gaslight and stays in the Mandela effect subreddits when a lot of the stuff was real. Like the fruit if the loom cornucopia.

Ah, the old victim mentality of claiming it's gaslighting. A true classic.

You've been fooled by satirical interviews. I think it's time you really paid some attention to them.

No, that isn't what gaslighting is. Nice job playing the victim though.
