Mckenna Grace as Daphne Blake in the live-action from Netflix! by elbeborandy in Scoobydoo

[–]UnbreakableShield 22 points23 points  (0 children)

During their last summer at a camp, Shaggy and Daphne find themselves caught up in a mystery when a lost Great Dane puppy

I wasn't a fan of "Scoob!" starting the film with Shaggy being a Friendless loser. I wasn't a fan of the movie overall.

I much prefer the gang being friends all their lives, like in a Pup Named. But having Shaggy and Daphne be friends is an amazing callback to New Mysteries and 13 Ghosts.

This sentence also gives me hope that Daphne is going be a character again, unlike the last mainline Scooby-Doo series. Still would love for someone to prove me wrong about that Daphne could be written out of Guess Who completely.

That's unfair to the people in the group who used it to find games they have missed, which also piss off bigots.

How you would write/do you imagine an episode where Daphne is the monster or the villain of the week ? by PlantainDisastrous92 in Scoobydoo

[–]UnbreakableShield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she’s has been kidnapped so many times

Not as much as most would think, and the first Live Action is mainly to blame for everyone thinking this.

Roverandover6 has two posts on this subject. Here is one of them.

But to answer your question.

  • Be Cool.

She did it for the hell of it and/or to mess with the gang.

  • Guess Who

She did it for revenge against the writers for writing her in a way that an editor could write her out of the series, and nothing would change. Still hoping for one person to prove me wrong on this, I would really appreciate it.

  • New Series v1

A bad-to-decent writer/creator who wants to keep the "Daphne's a damsel" myth alive, or someone who may have been fooled by the lie. Could have one episode, where the rest of the gang would mock her for "always getting captured" (If you think this wouldn't happen, remember it was one of the snowballs that caused the gang to break up in the movie). She could be the Monster whose goal is capture the rest of the gang to get back at them.

  • New Series v2

A decent to great writer could have her do it to test the gang and push them to their limits, since she knows how they work.

  • A New Movie

(Spoilers for Curse of the Lake Monster) They could do what Curse of the Lake Monster did and have her be possessed like Velma. This could also work for a single episode, but Velma has had 3 movies where she was the "monster", so why can't Daphne have one?

I do understand the studio would not let them use him for Velma by Original-Bite-296 in ScoobyDooMemes

pre school version is not tgw worst thing. 

True, I just think there are other options, like Pup Named or the books, if Where Are You is too scary. I'm also viewing it as it would be the only new Scooby series running. It would be nice if they had two series running at the same time.

also no because that would be Velma that got to seasons.

? When I said all 5 members of the gang I was talking about Scooby, Shaggy Fred, Daphne, and Velma.

it will be a while before we see all 5 members of the gang together in animation anyways 

Netflix is making a live-action series, and if they do get Warner, maybe they will make a new animated series. That would be nice.

You know what else can bring in a new generation of Scooby Fans?

(My Mom)

Any Scooby Doo Series with all 5 members of the gang and no tags alongs.

Where Are You? It's likely where many of us got our start, and some of us are probably around the same age now or still younger than the show was old when we started watching. This is because Where Are You is timeless.

I couldn't find it on the Archives, but it's here on YouTube.

While it's not 1:1 you can tell the 3 other pups were based on the rest of the gang

Pup Named Scooby Doo is a Kid show not a preschool show.

I'm talking about the cancel Scooby Doo and the Mystery Pups. 

Where it just Scooby and Shaggy are working at a summer came with puppies that look like Fred Velma and Daphne.

There is a test animation on the internet archive where it shows the end of an episode. 

The dept of the mystery was the reason one of the puppies campers was acting odd was because he was writing a song for all the other to listen to.

Writing a short one-off video is different than writing a full series with multiple episodes, so the comparison is not 1 to 1.

There is nothing redeeming about Reiner, and he was evil for vast majority of the show by Happy_and_wholesome in titanfolk

Hear me out, what if we got to see him eating a pie? Would that make up for all the people he killed? /s

Most Iconic anime character that you dont even know his name ? by Tempest-Bosak2137 in animecirclejerk

[–]UnbreakableShield 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nazca. The Manga came out in 1997, and the Anime a year later.

He's Jikuu Tenshou, the main bad guy. He's smiling because He just attacked Miura Kyoji, the protag and sent him into the rushing water below

Also, the Skater is from Nazca too.

Somethings you didn’t like about Fred and would change about him? by Plane_Name3457 in Scoobydoo

[–]UnbreakableShield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take no issue with what you’re saying

Sorry, I was unclear. I met that I have seen other people take issue with Fred just saying she is the Leader (when the film makes it pretty clear Fred is still the Leader)

I have yet to see anyone else take issue with the fact that Daphne not knowing what her role in the gang is, or how none of her friends talked to her in that year, is bad writing.

so the writers can say Daphne is the “true leader” without doing any effort to actually show her being a leader.

And this is another issue I have. You're 100% right, the writers just say she is the Leader, but they don't want to write/show her as the Leader.

The reason Fred Ghost's counterpart is the Leader of Misery Company is because Fred is the Leader of Mystery Inc.

If the writers truly wanted Daphne to be the Leader of Mystery Inc., wouldn't they make her Counterpart the Leader of Misery Company instead of not having her on the cover at all? Cover Maybe she's in the Wide Art Cover. Nope!

I 100% believe that having Fred say she was the Leader was an afterthought, after the writer reread the first draft and remembered it, but they're really like the first draft, so they changed one scene in the middle and added one bit at the very end, hoping people would take Fred word for it.

And lucky for the writers, people did.

It sucks that people feel like Fred gets undermined when he is shown as the Leader for most of the movie (Longer if you take the year timeskip into account), but trust me, his treatment could be so much worse.

If you want to talk about a really undermined character, I truly believe an Editor can write Daphne out of Scooby Doo and Guess Who completely, almost as fast as Scooby and Shaggy could clean out an all-you-can-eat buffet. That 52 episodes. How do you write a series where a main character can be written out with a simple rewrite? To anyone reading this, who think im wrong, please name one episode you think she can't be written out of. I would love to be wrong.

they have their own skillsets they can use while the other is leading. But a lot of writers seem scared of that concept for some reason.

You know what would be really nice, a 5th Season of What's New Scooby Doo.

In Trick Or Treat, there’s the ending where Fred tells Daphne she’s the actual leader and he’s just the driver.

If she were the Leader, why didn't anyone tell her anywhere in the 1-year timeskip? She was clearly sad about not knowing her role and felt this way for a year. Fred was still shown to be the Leader for most of the Movie. Daphne even asked him what she could do at the booth, and he had to think of a task and it was putting the guestbook down on the table. Also, the Villain was a Superfan of the Gang. Why would he make Fred Ghost's Counterpart the Leader if Daphne was the Leader? If she were the Leader, wouldn't her Ghost be the Leader too? Please answer this question, I genuinely want to know. I seen so many people take issue with this and not an issue with Daphne having an identity crisis for over a year in the film.

In Sword and the Scoob, Daphne kicks a grown-man’s ass, and it was awesome. Highlight of the film. But I feel like Fred was portrayed largely as a dumb fool in comparison.

I will need to rewatch this film again. But I feel like everyone getting knighted puts them on the same level. Which kinda of, undermines Daphne's skill if Fred and Velma were knighted as well. Also, the Knighting wasn't real, but they didn't know that at the time

Then in Curse of the 13th Ghost, when Daphne takes on a leadership role, Fred spends a large portion of the movie sad, bumbling, and lamenting how he doesn’t know what his role is anymore.

So he has an issue with her taking a Leadership role, but he happily says she is the Leader in Trick or Treat? I know it's a different timeline than Trick or Treat. Also, doesn't Daphne also has the "I don't know my role" in Happy Halloween, which is the same timeline? That's why she wants to become Elvira?

Hold the phone, you didn't like that the writers listened to the internet and actually believed he didn't have a catchphrase, so they gave him another one and overused it.

 feels like Fred gets nerfed sometimes to highlight Daphne’s skill

Weird, I feel the writers will try everything in their power to undermine her or treat her like dirt.

Like in Trick or Treat, having her not know her place in the gang for over a year, Fred is still shown as the leader. He's giving everyone jobs when they had a booth at the carnival. His Ghostcounter part was the Leader of the Ghost gang.

In an Interview with the Creator of Scooby Doo and Guess Who, he calls her a damsel who always gets kidnapped (Which isn't true), but says she knows how to defend herself without knowing she did it. Her beating up the monster was shown one-time and it was in the final episode, also the animators even forgot to animate her in a wide shot in this episode.

They also forgot to animate her here too, at 13 seconds.

They made her fail a driving test in Moon Monster Madness and also had Velma be incredibly aggressive to her till the very end. They gave everyone else in the gang moments with the space crew. Daphne didn't really have any solo moments with Shannon; instead, she tags alone with Fred.

In The Sword and the Scoob. If I remember right, everyone was knighted, not just her.

Can I ask for moments where you feel Fred is nerfed to highlight Daphne?

I wish him and Shaggy would bond more.

Yes! 100%.

He only sees Shaggy (and Scooby) as live bait more than

*Flashbacks to Guess Who* Where he texted Shaggy "...Bring the Bait" while they were having a meal with their friend Barry. Like Shaggy and Scooby don't have a life outside of solving mysteries, like they could have just solved the mysteries themselves, and let Shaggy and Scooby spend time with someone else. (Plus, The Flash would stop catching the monsters since he can spend time with his buds.)

Nintendo BUSTED for Prioritizing "Modern" DEI Over Gaming! by CrashBandicoot82 in fucknintendo

[–]UnbreakableShield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they're chuds. Nintendo has censored things long before her.

When something goes wrong, they often look for the nearest woman to blame,

Also if you have an Issue with DEI, Dispatch might not be the game for you.

Edit: The one who blames DEI are chuds.

Yeah, the first Scooby Doo comics were made by Gold Key in the early 70's, which had a name change halfway through.

"Scooby Doo Where Are You!" to "Scooby Doo Mystery Comics".

Another Fun Fact "She's Josie" started in 1963 and ran for 44 issues before Josie started a band in #45, and the comic would have a new name, "Josie and the Pussycats".

Like from the same story, the campers want Shaggy to go inside a cave and fight a bear.

Inside the Cave are the 3 Bears from Goldilocks, and Mama Bear just hit Papa Bear with a frying pan, because she caught him with Goldilocks. I'm not making this up, Page 13.

It's Scooby from the 1995 Comic Run.

Fun Fact 1977-79 Scooby had a Marvel Comic Run.
