Holy shit, that court scene with Fred was literally the exact same "joke" from She-Hulk. "The idiot man is exonerated by having the female protag describe all of his humiliating flaws to everyone". Is that the kind of thing these writers spend their time fantasizing about?
They are toxic misandrists.
@tomcoop9750 yea I mean Adam something explains on YT why toxic masculinity is a good thing now that maybe a bit confusing but he explains why it's like the definition these wokers are saying it is
No one would ever do that with a woman
Short answer: yes.
@@titang6173 maybe….THATS the problem 😂😂❤
I think we all owe Scrappy Doo an apology after seeing Velma
Scrappy Doo was found dead in the cellar with two warning shots in its head
Nah we don't, he's still annoying as shit. I never liked him as a kid.
@@SunnyGovai Detroit
i am bout too
I sincerely never understood the Scrappy Doo hate.
It’s kinda sad when Puss In Boots The Last Wish, an animated family film with a talking cat is more deep and mature than this show that claims to be aimed at adults
I still need to watch that
@@EndymionTv it even has a positive male representation which is not common in modern Hollywood
That’s because you can tell there was EFFORT in Puss in Boots. You can tell there was no effort done in Velma
Yeah that movie was fire!🔥
It’s just another Common Dreamworks W
The moral of the story: support more independent artists who actually have original stories to tell.
Agreed!!!!!
If more stuff was in the public domain, this would be possible.
Unless they make more shit where a character’s entire personality and identity is that their black, or trans
GARBAGE 🗑
GARBAGE.
I just wanna say, Fred was always a good dude in the old shows. It's sad to see him brought down by malicious writers.
A RUclipsr named Jamie De Jonge has made two storyboard shorts showing how they'd have done scenes in Velma. In them, Velma is not obnoxiously arrogant, and Fred is a nice guy who's a bit oblivious. Considering I can't even sit through videos showing clips of Velma without needing to take 10 second breaks from it, this rewrite is 1000% superior.
He got the white treatment. Although, the other characters are goddamn atrocious despite the race change.
Fred is a victim of Jewish hate for characters resembling straight White men. It's just as simple as that.
Don't stop at the symptoms. Name those symptoms by their creators. JEWISH.
The dead girl falling out of the locker to reveal an empty brain cavity is the perfect summation of Mindy's creation.
Perfect summation
"mindless violence" more like "mindless comedy", amiright?
Totally. Looks good, but is devoid of anything of real substance.
they basically called themselves out XD
It's represents the only audience she stands a chance at getting to stay watching.
Mindy is without a doubt the ultimate narcissist with so much insecurities that you wanna feel bad for her... but then yiu see her work and just stop caring.
The fact she went as herself but younger for Halloween tells you everything
evil bitch ruined Scooby doo
She's not attractive enough to get away with being a narcissist
Ironic, considering a narcissist considers themselves rare and special, but time and time again it's proven with these Hollywood hijackings that they're a dime a dozen.
Seems like she must really hate White men, especially heterosexual ones. Not funny, just pure hatred. If she saw an Indian woman written like she wrote Fred, she would go berserk with rage, for sure.
And people wonder why normal folks are fleeing to old shows and anime, slowly but surely.
Yes and good
@@EndymionTv no. Not good. Because the locusts follow.
Yup. Lots of great films made from the 1960s to the early 2010s. Very early 2010s.
Exactly! If you want to watch a Scooby Doo for adults just watch Mystery Incorporated, not this garbage.
We did that with gaming once, and look what happened...
Hollywood writing is no longer about story telling it's about activism and writers letting their personal insecurities out. Also sometimes their writing leaves you wondering whether they've had any normal human interaction ever in their life. They really need to get outside of that Hollywood bubble sometime. And seriously Mindy, how she keeps getting a job is baffling.
Mindy is 43, but from what I’ve seen she acts like she’s 15 - 20 years younger.
I don’t think she ever learned struggle, nor does she have any genuine talent as a writer.
You can tell your story about activism. Mindy and Hollywood don't even care about Minorities
@@KratostheThird she's 43?? I never really paid attention to her or known of her existence in general before this and I thought she was in her early 20's
If you want good comedy, watch Bill Burr
Charlie Grandy is how she got this one, and maybe more.
At first I was pretty pissed that Scooby Doo wasn’t gonna be in the show. But now that I think about it, I am so glad that Scooby wasn’t ruined
Now they'll include scoob in the show, not like I'm gonna watch it anyways, and I was never attached to this franchise, although the franchise was fun and entertaining while it lasted.
Scooby dodged a bullet.
Sadly he was included as a military plan
The problem, they kind of are
More like by association
Like all the GOOD MCU men, Jack Sparrow and so on
Like, you can't watch them anymore, without knowing the shite that is coming
As someone who’s childhood consisted out of watching scooby Doo after school when being with my grandma, this feels like a punch in my face. It anyways had a nostalgic feeling to it and seeing this makes me incredibly sad …
😪 sorry dude
I feel your pain, homie
No joke, when I saw clips of this show, I actually got pissed. Scooby Doo has been with me ever since Pre-K, when the teacher would put on episodes for us to watch. And ever since I've kept up with each new series (movies have been kind of off and on). And seeing how much they bastardized the characters felt not like a slap to the face, but a boot to the skull. You know what? Scoob may have been out there for a Scooby Doo movie, but at least it kept the characters consistent with how they were in the past, for the most part. In fact, after watching those clips I booted up that movie just to wash my eyes out.
then watch the old shows
boohoo just watch the old series lol. prayers for this difficult time you're going through.
The fact that this show was a commercial and critical disaster and yet it still got greenlit for a sequel just shows that Hollywood has gotten so comically in denial that people don't want this that it borders on clinically insane.
Its time to acknowledge that these people are not comically in denial or insane. All of this is deliberate.
They HATE you.
You know what actually you're right. I also think it's time we stopped financing their sequels with our hate money. For the past 6 years they have been showing us through their announcements, never mind trailers, announcements of these horrendous shows and movies that they are going to be bad. We need to get to a point where we don't need more convincing that they're gonna suck and just don't watch them.
if no one is watching this crap they'll fail eventually
right now, i suggest fetch for entertainment from japan
Just a bunch of woke rich californian 30$ latte with no talent shat this
Shows like this are not made to be "enjoyed". Their purpose is not to "entertain" you, as their predecessors were. These shows are made to be spoken about, good OR bad. Thanks to social media, all publicity is good publicity. They make these shows to evoke rage and disgust in people, so that they can flock to social media after watching it and start talking about it. Idiots like Mindy Kaling are just the pawns of the people who pump money into it. They know it will bomb, but it'll grab so many people's attention, and in todays world, attention is money.
I heavily respect Peter Jackson for not perverting Tolkien's work, instead celebrating it and showing respect to it
Until he made The Hobbit.
Oh that's right.. :(
what exactly hobbit did wrong?
@@hoddtoward8779 most of it was invented. It was one shorter book not a big trilogy like lotr. He wanted to make 2 movies i think. And del toro started directing the trilogy and Jackson took his part so a lot wasn’t his ideas
@@hoddtoward8779 the hobbit is only about 2/3s of one of the LoTR books in length( and is actually pretty kid friendly if you have a young reader in the family) so most of what’s in the movies is stuff not in the book. Some of it was in other books or Appendixes (like the bit with Gandalf vs Sauron) but most is straight up added to pad the runtime
One of the most obvious changes that has happened to Hollywood over time is the focus of the creators there. It used to be all about the audience, and what they want to see. They understood that a satisfied audience is a profitable audience, so they did everything they could to make us happy. They left themselves behind, and transformed into a new person on screen.
But now, its all about ME ME ME. They don't make movies or shows to satisfy their audience anymore. They do it to satisfy their own egos. Actors no longer leave themselves behind, and become another person for their role. They simply put on the clothes of the character, and then continue to act like themselves. Writers no longer try to create heroes that inspire them to become better people. They simply put clones of themselves and their friends into every good guy slot, and caricatures of the people they hate into the bad guy slots. And, of course, they all take every chance they get to scream their superior morals at anyone why will listen.
Ego has completely taken over, and its destroying our entertainment and culture.
Hollywood has always been a propaganda machine. They’re just not bothering to hide that fact anymore.
Yeah this is why I don’t watch anything new I keep re-watching stuff from like the 90s the 80s and early 2000s half-baked great movie
I have literally seen NOTHING nice get said about this show. And that itself is incredible.
I remember an episode of Scooby Doo where Shaggy visits his grandmother in the retirement home, and she believes that he's the leader of the gang. Fred allowed him to take the reigns, and in the unmasking, it wasn't Fred nor Velma explaining how everything comes together with the help of clues, but Shaggy does. How in the world the writers thought Fred was an egotistical leader who takes all credit is beyond me.
Fred drives the van most of the time?
Because "white male bad"
@Faclonlibrary
This is the most braindead response, lol.
He drives the van because it's his f@#$ing van. He owns the van because he's pretty well off. He tends to lead the group, not only because he provides resources (like the van), but because he has intellect almost as good as Velmas, and people skills almost as good as Shaggy or Daphne, and generally, jacks of all trades tend to make the best leaders (speaking as someone who has suffered through many sh@t leaders and a handful of rare great leaders in the USAF).
Wtf even is your argument here? That because he drives the van, he's the leader of the group, and leaders are inherently egotistical? Bad leaders certainly are, and there's plenty of those to go around. Good leaders ditch egotism in favor of mentorship, and deference to a subordinates skillset, which Fred does CONSTANTLY.
Despite all that, wanna know why he drives the van? Because it's his f@#$ing van. I got my own mystery wagon IRL, lol. It's an L300 cabover van I imported from Japan through the military (meaning it's somewhat irreplacable at the price I originally got it for). Wanna know what I'm not doing? Letting others drive it. Putting others on my insurance for it. It's my van, I paid it off, and it's a rare import, I think that's fair. I've also got my own Shaggy, lol. I'm sure as sh@t not letting my stoner friend John drive it. I love the guy to death, he's really smart on a lot of topics, we go camping a lot, and I fully intend on taking him on all manner of offroad adventures when my van build is done... But he's also high 24/7, doesnt have car insurance, and has a driving record so bad, I'm surprised the state hasnt permanently revoked his license. Doesnt mean I'm a d@ck to him, I've helped him rebuild parts of his ratty old car, both financially, and with my mechanical experience from working on jet engines. Even helped him camperize it to save on rent when he was struggling. And he's taught me a lot about woodworking in return.
Literally, what argument are you trying to make? I'm basically LITERALLY in Fred's position, and I dont want my friends driving my van when we go out on adventures (cept if it's some weird emergency). Has nothing to do with egotism, and everything to do with the fact that if anybody's going to destroy MY vehicle, it's going to be ME, and I think that's fair, given I'm the only one who has any money in it. It's fair to them too, because it protects them from the liability of wrecking an expensive vehicle.
He makes traps
Fred likes shiny things
My problem isn't the race change, the two mothers, the sexuality changes, do I like those changes? No, I don't, but I can tolerate them. My problem is that these aren't the same characters, Fred isn't a complete idiot, Velma isn't a complete asshole, I can't remember what they did with Daphne, and Shaggy and Scooby aren't even in the show, Norville or whatever his name is a complete different character and a worse one at that.
You could change their names and their clothes and you wouldn't even know it was connected to Scooby Doo!
They made Daphne a drug dealer.....
@@suddenlycrows Exactly, they know their show would be shit anyways and that no one would be watching it except they make it from an existing IP
Nah, the race should be kept the same
This!! The race thing i can get over, sexuality stuff whatever, not really hurting anyone. But it's just not scooby doo, it doesnt have scooby doo in it. Changing the characters completely is disrespectful to us long time scooby doo fans, maybe it'd be better if they were actually _good_ changes but at that point just keep it a different show..
I'm literally a gay man and I'm so fucking sick of gay relationships being tacked onto everything in the most preachy way possible, it's just embarrassing
Thank you for this comment
I'm a bi man and i agree! they're using us as props to promote "The Message"
These shows make gay relationships look like a joke instead of natural like it should be, you are a right.
@@ally3417 frfr, i want genuine same sex relationships which isn't just political nonsense.
Bi Velma was handled way better in Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated than this garbage.
I don’t know if it makes you feel better, but the owner of the rights to Back to the Future have said that the trilogy is perfect as is and they wish it not be messed with whether it’s now or 30 years from now… They really want it to remain as is with no added story or characters and I completely agree and hope that their wishes are honored throughout the years…
That's how a classic remains a classic 👌🏽
I'm pretty sure Tolkien also did not want anybody mess with his work, but look where we are now.
Somebody might come and try to mess with their stuff somewhere in the future tho... probably would add wokeness in it too.
From what I remember from the original cartoon, Shaggy was NEVER a stoner nor stupid. He may not want to do mysteries all the time, he gets scared alot (but he's NO coward), he may not have ALL the same interests as his other human friends but he's a good guy and he LOVES food.
It's never been easier to say no to idiots in Hollywood.
Agreed
Someone clearly has a hard time saying no to trashy and half baked ideas.
As an LGBT person, I genuinely hate when creators have to rewrite already established and popular characters instead of creating new shows and characters. Not only is it insanely lazy and bad writing, it's unnecessarily preachy and takes away the nostalgia and enjoyment of what these shows once were. Not everything has to have every single minority shoehorned in for virtue-signalling tokenism. Scooby Doo was literally never problematic or outdated anyway. If Mindy Kaling actually cared about minorities, then she would create a new show to give us our own representation instead of tacking us on to old characters because wokeism.
As a south asian, LITERALLY the reputation just seems so forced and I feel like its going to do more damage in the long run no matter if u are poc and/or lgbtq+
Say it louder for the people in the back!!👍👍👍
Honestly the different demographic changes with original writers of mystery inc would have worked a lot better than everyone stays the same designs but Fred is a rich douche fail son, shaggy is a nice guy, and Velma is like Daria but like without any internal consistency.
If you had shaggy black, Velma Indian, Daphne Asian, and the heart of the characters was still there most everyone would be fine with it except those closer to the right.
Also Netflix and Amazon almost always cancel gay shows immediately after their first season ends no matter what
Fr, even if they wanted to make Velma bisexual why flaunt it so much and say "looks she's bisexual" every 5 seconds? Scooby doo isn't a romance show, sexuality has 0 lore impact. Just stop forcing romance into non romance shows in general
Sad thing is that good animated shows like infinity train got canceled while shows like this get greenlit 💀. What’s even more sad is that it’s been reported that their in the talks of giving this show a second seasons despite both the general audience and critics saying that the show is terrible
They hate us and this shows
it isn't about what is objectively good or not, it's about "the message" and pushing an agenda. repetition is a primitive form of mind control and they believe it will be key to them winning. vote with your attention and tune out their nonsense.
Infinity Train died for this 😔
@@rubyy.7374 yes unfortunately
Isn't that just like modernity, throwing away quality and replacing it with garbage
This show only cemented my love even more for the live action Scooby Doo movies of the early 2000s. The second one alone is honestly one of the best iterations of the gang ever put on a screen.
The cast, monsters, villain and character arcs in that movie all make sense and feel authentic. Fred for example actually struggles being the leader in the film and Daphne struggles with feeling like all she is in the film is a “pretty face”. Both Fred and Daphne admit to each other how they each feel afraid and express how it is okay to be afraid because that is what makes them human.
Not only does that make the gang feel more relatable to the audience, but creates character growth at the same time.
Well then if you want to see that recaptured, watch Mystery Incorporated. Daphne doesn't struggle being a "pretty face" but that series has the best version of Fred
When you started cracking up at the paraplegic spider lesbian, that was contagious
I wish people could just stop hate watching so things like this will go away
I wish I could use footage without getting copyright struck 😩
It’s really stupid of them.
If we can't resist hate watching, you can bet more shows like this will pop up.
With shows like this you can see the difference between hate watching a terrible show and a mediocre one, Halo fans hate watch all the halo series because, coming from a halo fan, it isn't bad is just miss opportunities, but with a show like Velma, it's so trash that people watch the first episode and it was so bad that they won't see the next chapters
If u want to hate watch, at least pirate it
Daphne is canonically Scotish, her family has a castle by Loch Ness. They couldn't even be bothered to watch one of the movies
Yes, I've ever watched that movie! She has cousin who dresses the same pattern as her. It's wonderful!
What do they care? They're wanton iconoclasts. Canon and pre-established lore are something they're actively seeking to destroy.
It's also implies in Be Cool.
Well at least before Mystery Inc
Mindy is far too rich, privileged, and pampered to call out anyone’s privilege.
Exactly. And shes been rich her whole entire life. Such a hypocrite.
“Why is manga outselling comics across the board ?!”
Huh yeah we don’t know 🤷🏼♂️
It's like if an AI had wrote the whole show with the words "Reddit" "Self-Aware" and "Diverse".
I can't even just enjoy a gang and their speaking dog solving mysteries without being fed Ideology
Digest the agenda, eat your hugs & live in your pod citizen it is the future apparently
Didn't you hear? That's what "modern audiences" want!
I don't know who these modern audiences are and how they think this is what they want.
@@bryan81584 they don’t exist!
@@bryan81584 The modern audience approved! They are 7% of viewers. Well worth catering to
"And their speaking dog," had me dying of laughter 💀. It's funny when you think about how ridiculous that is ... 😂
If he’s afraid of ghost and monsters, he’s not exactly empty headed, because the amount of fear we see shaggy display all throughout the Scooby-Doo franchise, requires a level of self-awareness that potheads in our own world don’t even possess
So he’s just stupid then? Nahhhhhh he smokes weed for sure
Ehhh. I'm a stoner and I'll be real, you wouldn't catch me in almost any location where I thought ghosts and monsters were, unless that spot is my current residence and that's due to lack of choice. I can maybe tolerate a ghost, I'm certainly not going to tolerate Scooby-Doo style ghosts and monsters since those are humans in costumes most of the time. So nah, potheads tend to have enough awareness to not get involved with that sort of mess. Just wanna enjoy our high, not be in terror of some ghost or something.

Mindy Kaling's c.v.:
Father is a well-known architect, mother was a successful doctor
Grew up in the rich area of Cambridge, Massachusetts
Graduate Darmouth College (Ivy League) with a degree in playwriting (they have degrees in that?)
Immediately went to work in show business--never waitressed, never did housekeeping, never did an honest day's work in her life, just went from a rich suburb to a rich kids' school to a rich kids' idea of a job
And she can't write characters that are real, funny, and relatable?
Who could have seen that coming?
Yea they have degrees in playwriting. Because not everyone can do it, and you need to learn how to. Learning the structure of how plays work, though, doesn’t give you the creative know-how to actually write your own compelling works. Likely it wasn’t a cut program and she wasn’t a standout in any of her classes.
I LOATHE it when these celebrities who were fed with silver spoons from the start grow up and make content to try and lecture us ‘poor people’ up in their LA bubble on things they know nothing about!
Now multiply this many times over and you see the same thing happening in Silicon Valley. Imagine going to work dominated by SEA's and they are all racists holding on to a CASTE system. Now trying being a real POC and entering into the workforce. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Unqualified people in management positions.
Seeing this makes sense as to what the hell is wrong with these things, just about everything about Velma is tone deaf and has almost no ambition or drive to be special.
My theory is she's not really self-inserting as Velma, but as Fred.
I'm 65 years old and these times makes me want to cry.
That scene with wheelchair gender fluid spidermanwoman literally had me rolling on the floor. Thank you for the huge laughter
I’m glad I could brighten up your day 😂❤️
It doesn't sound like it would a real thing, sounds more like a parody something trying to be woke
Thanks for the laugh Deemer.

YES
@@EndymionTv

She's also racist and most likely a Satanist
That’s putting it mildly.
Everyone is feeding right into exactly what this show wanted. Rage bait is the new trend, and we are all falling right into the trap. Best thing we can do is not watch, nor talk about it. But it's like a car accident, we can't help ourselves from rubbernecking.
Yeah the producers clearly hate the fact that they had to stick with the Scooby Doo franchise and they want to piss us off
@@Queerlien Yep. They want us to hate it so they can then say "oh you don't like it because you are _______ !! "... fill in the blank with trigger words.
Here's an imagined scene from a meeting about this show:
EXECUTIVE 1: Should we tell her this show is irredeemably bad and we're not going to green light it?
EXECUTIVE 2: And get dragged on social media for being racist, misogynistic, and homophobic? No, thanks, I've got two alimonies to pay and a couple of mansions to maintain. Let's greenlight this sucker ASAP!
And now you know what lies behind "wokeness": it's a way for untalented people like Kaling to weaponize their "otherness" to get a power they can't possibly obtain by being good at their jobs.
That only helps if that translates to views on HBO. Stuff like this video doesn’t help them at all as long as people don’t hate-watch the show itself.
@@John-fk2ky I watched it alright but I pirated it, they dont deserve the money
I was actually laughing along when you mentioned that they took a fan made alternate Spiderman and altered it into a long island iced tea of pandering to the modern audience. But man, Hollywood has just become a depressing dumpster fire...
Funny thing is I remember a paraplegic spiderman in a VR chat skit by youtubers. They really are creativity bankrupt at this point.
I grew up with Scooby Doo. So did my dad. He’s the one that introduced it to my brother and me. This show feels like a slap to the face. Screw HBO and everyone who is involved.

All three of those is why Hollywood needs to be destroyed and rebuilt
All three of those is why Hollywood needs to be destroyed. -and never rebuilt-
Amen to that but likely won't happen either
Also have better management when it's rebuilded and keep out the people that turned it into garbage in the first place
One of the reasons. The other is child abuse.
The unholy trinity of Hollywood
Velma had the biggest Debut because everything else animated in that category was removed, no one hardly watched it, just didn’t have any competition
Velma has to take place in an alternate dimension where the gang is completely different and mostly unlikable.
I guess Sun-Spider doesn't have a healing factor, cause if she did she probably wouldn't be wheelchair bound as Spider-Man has even healed from having his eyes removed
And when fans make their spidersona overweight I get the idea to represent themselves as they may also be overweight but Peter went from scrawny to lean muscular after he was bitten so the spidersona being overweight doesn’t work as well.
What I really hate about ROP is that the writers despise everything Tolkien loved, tradition, duty, honor, God, etc. He was a devout Catholic and you can see those themes in his works. They despise him, but they plundered and twisted his world for their own purposes and it just disgusts me
That's exactly how I feel about wheel of time. The writers despised the beliefs that Jordan wove into his literature and they wrote the show accordingly. From the moment they did interviews and announced castings, it was clear as day.
They were actively twisting the worldbuilding, cultures, characterization, romance, magic and history because it didn't fit with their political opinions. Jordan was incredibly meticulous with his details, everything was clear as day, yet they made little if any effort to be faithful, instead gaslighting any criticism.
They took a beloved epic fantasy series and corrupted it, all because this fictional world didn't perfectly align with their modern day progressive political values. The books are a lovely experience of escapism that anyone could enjoy, and what we got from Amazon was another culture war battleground. All because the writers were utterly incapable of keeping it in their pants politically.
I can't think of anything more tarnished by woke garbage than wheel of time. It is a textbook example of the cancer that permeates so much entertainment. God of War has the same showrunner, so I can imagine how that show will end up.

There is no lonher rock botton, only the void and beyond!
Scrappy Doo and Shaggy & Scooby Doo Get A Clue are masterpieces compared to this lol.
Velma (the show, not the original charatcer) wants to be Daria without realizing why the character actually works. Creating a misanthropic pessimist takes a level of care and skill which modern writers who engage in vanity projects like this simply don’t have. You can only write characters with equal or less intelligence and emotional experience. These vanity projects are spiritually bankrupt because of this. We’re watching the bullied kids in school 20 years ago write fiction in the present.
Mandy is 43. She was 23 back in 2003. You may have to go back a little bit farther.
Everything else I can agree with you.
You talking about the old MTV cartoon?
Seriously, Daria was genuinely witty, and surrounded mostly by memorable idiots she could get away with lobbing subtle jabs at. Kaling's Velma is just _nasty._
@@KratostheThird
Yes, he is. I genuinely miss that show.
The thing also with Daria was that she wasn't always 100% in the right, and even tempted by the attention she got when people found her attractive. She's a person, not a vile mouthpiece (and I pray the reboot I heard whispers about don't get made).
Velma is not a black character... Velma was ALWAYS a white girl.
She's Indian in that travesty, not black.
Normally, when I’m creating a character, I don’t use myself as a template because I don’t see myself as protagonist material, especially not the likable type of protagonist
I get a kick out of the fact that if any of my writings get published people will spot a character I make, assume they're a self insert of mine because they have the same initials, only to watch them die horribly or have terrible lives in pretty much every story I write. Especially since they only have my initials because I forgot what they were originally called and decided to make it a little easter egg in my works.
There's nothing wrong with having pieces of yourself in your art, especially if those pieces are endearing. But there is a difference between self insert egocentrism and exploring familiar aspects of oneself.
Man i make myself a villain
A very predictable one off villain that is
The whole tone of Velma sounds like a spiteful letter from your ex.
That actually fact and your absolutely right.
Oof you're not wrong
At least my ex's didn't look like Mindy. Eww.
At least Scooby was spared from suffering this level of desecration, thank goodness for that. I swear, if the writers decided to include him they would’ve probably made him into a chihuahua with all the Mexican stereotypes. Like, instead of asking for Scooby Snacks he’d be demanding tacos and shots of tequila. Scooby nearly got his souls ripped out in the live-action movie and that wouldn’t even compare to the massacre he would’ve gotten if he was in the Velma series.
I figured that is what they were gonna do too. 😂
Please, do not come up with such ideas. Mindy and her "team" might read this and think "a non binary mexican Scooby? Count me in!"
I agree.Scooby is a national treasure whom we must protect at all costs.
Damn. The rise of narcissism in our culture ruins and spoils what once was a semi-free enterprise of creativity and expression with insecure and shallow characters, idea takeovers, self projection onto the audience and pushing manipulative propaganda.
its shows like these that make me watch more Indie films more than actual hollywood made shows or watch the old non messed with shows
It seems like as technology gets better, creativity and originality gets worse. It’s like people are scared to swing for the fences and actually try anymore. And if it is an original idea, a lot of these modern ideas get slapped onto iconic and recognizable IPs to take advantage of people’s nostalgia.
Thanks for making this video.
To quote the meme: Instead of remaking and ruining good movies and shows, remake bad movies and shows fix them and make them better.
In their attempts to "troll" the haters, they are proving the "haters" point. Same with She Hulk
They cancelled an entire Scooby show and three scooby movies. I can only imagine it’s for funding Velma. And it still looks TERRIBLE.
Some might disagree with my theory on that but it’s not like Scooby-Doo isn’t selling well. It’s one of WB’s most successful franchise. And hey, can only imagine that the show and three movies would be infinitely better than Velma despite them being for kids
one thing that kinda bothers me is that nobody ever ridicules or criticizes Fred's PARENTS, the ones who neglected to raise Fred properly. Like yeah, he should've figured the cutting thing on his own, and I hate that's the only reason he's found innocent. His parents coddled him and spoiled him, but they aren't affected, it's Fred. Fred gets humiliated and constantly bodyshamed and he's only 15-17. That's honestly disgusting.
Making Norville (Shaggy) anti-drugs is like a remake of Chowder with no food. Mindy quite literally messed up the easiest character to write.
Omg I loved Chowder…my man Schnitzel
@@mathewpoulin8994 - Schnitzel was great, lol. Also, speaking of Chowder, that show had meta humour done *right.*
Has anti drug become woke now?
On the point of Rings of Power....the original LOTR already had strong female characters who were respected and powerful in their own right. Galadriel held power not as a warrior, but a mighty ruler, and she wasn't flawless either, she was tempted by the power of the ring (in one of the most terrifying scenes ever seen on film, no less). Arwen was instrumental to the success of the Fellowship, as her knowledge of elven magics saved the life of Frodo, and she was a capable fighter in her own right. She also made the conscious choice to sacrifice her own immortality to stay with the man she loved, and in the process united men and elves as a just and noble queen.
And let's not forget Éowyn, who with the assistance of Merry the Hobbit, _stabbed the Witch King of Angmar in the goddamn face._
Exactly!
Couldn’t have put it better myself. Rings of Power Galadriel was a stubborn, headstrong and arrogant child. LOTR Galadriel was ethereal, mysterious, warm, maternal and played to perfection by Cate Blanchett.
"it's like if your dad died and a clown showed up to your house, started wearing your dad's clothes, and starting saying he's your dad."
JRR Tolkien was a Christian, there is no way he'd write anything like that. I better not see Narnia hyjacked
Hollywood is beyond parody at this point. An angry, hate-filled, joyless parody.
If they want to subvert my expectations, how about writing a story with good characters.
Want to absolutely blow my mind, put those characters in a coherent plot.
They are like a dealer getting high on his own supply.
If you do catch me laughing, it’s more of a coping mechanism rather than me, finding the actual humor behind these disgusting jokes
Agreed
I said it once and I'll say it again: HBO Velma embodies everything that's wrong with modern media these days and how the lack of love behind the creative process results in a lack of quality. And I'm not just saying this because I'm a Scooby-Doo fan. This series comes across as a huge middle finger in a way that not only disrespects the fans, but also the creators of the franchise itself. I admit that I create parody pieces too, but even my parodies and satires have love behind them. I don't write them to spite or humiliate anyone. The most I do is that I try to make you stop and think after reading my webcomics. I NEVER spite.
PS: I'm also ok with Velma (the real one) being a lesbian because the true version of her is still likable, smart and her character is fun.
Change characters races and sexuality its not an actual problem If you do It properly. The problem its that Velma use this like a shield for criticism of the show bc its not funny or even play with the adult aspect unless is sexual jokes and cussing
Was not she one already in Mystery Incorperated TV show? But you know, it didn't matter since she was an ENJOYABLE CHARACTER and the show was very subtle about it, to the point of it being your headcanon anyway-at least from what I remember.
@@riskopalfi801 Not Just That,in the live action movie she was intended to be a Lesbian,but they started mascaring more and more until in the final product there was nothing
@@luana9868 nah its usually always a problem. People have a tendency to always gravity towards what looks familiar. But ya sometimes like with Nick Fury you can race swap make them look completely different and a lot of people like him better in the end but it tends to be rare with no exact formula to get people past the image of a character they already have in their minds.
@@luana9868 eh you know even in the movies in no version do you see her interested in any man or woman. She's often times awkward and in her own little world so her being lesbian seems not only likely but her sexuality was never explored because no cared to know what anyone's sexuality even was. You pretty much knew Fred and Daphne were together and nothing else to which no one even asked if shaggy was into anyone or Velma or Scooby. If they never answered we still would have never asked. Scooby Doo was not a hook up show
The irony of the "Sun Spider" having no legs, lmao. This shit had me dying, loved the vid man ♥️
Hollywood is a mess
I think these Velma videos are how I found this channel. Now I'm all up to date on current gaming news. 😅
Thank you for watching!
The fact that the newest transformer will be trans is beyond funny to me 🤣
I burst out laughing xDDDDDD
Watching youtubers make fun of modern entertainment is 100x more entertaining than the products themselves. And as a bonus I don't give them my views so it's a win-win for me.
ENDYMION's uncontrollable laughter at the "SunSpider" just proves that we are all losing our minds at how dumb the entertainment industry has become.
Facts Paul
To me, when a bad show gets green-lit, it's an automatic money laundering scheme.
16:18 I just got reminded of this: "Spiderman, Spiderman, Paraplegic Spiderman. Can he stand? No he can't. He's paralyzed from the waist down. Look out! He can't feel his legs."
Ironically enough, that came from a vr comedy sketch with Juicy, Joshdub, Mully, Narrator, and Eddie with Juicy being the one singing the song.
I was fucking drinking water , bastard!! I almost read it like a song about Joe while Griffin is singing to anger Joe.
Its pretty sad to see and watch these writers and studios destroy and ruin the cartoons and books that we all grew up and enjoyed.
Hey, remember Mystery Incorperated? Funny but serious, self aware etc. Had an engaging and overarching plot that was not afraid to get dark. Didn't bash political agenda and was just pure fun. Had an actual ORIGIN STORY FOR THE GANG, THAT MADE SENSE!
even the live action ones were better.
Literally within the first 2 minutes you're hit with modern day Hollywood identity politcs...
have you seen modern family? or is that show too triggering?
@momotigomo Don't compare modern family guy with that garbage. Modern family guy is bland as hell yet it's still miles better than that self insert trash.
@@momotigomo Modern Family was a very deliberate and skillful work of globalist propaganda. It wasn't on HBO. It was on primetime network TV, but they pushed as far as they could, and it was pretty far, while still sneaking in under the radars of most Americans.
@@ninitndo13 At least Modern Family has some wholesome redeeming qualities in spite of its blandness. It's not a good show, but at least it doesn't reek of contempt for the audience.
@@ninitndo13 lol modern family guy??
I had to watch a college speech that Mindy Kaling did in my English class one time in Junior year- it was the first time I had ever heard of Mindy. The teacher mentioned something about how she was an actor on the Office. I remember thinking "that explains why her jokes aren't funny"
Okay, I'm so, so glad that there is someone like you talking about this struggle openly. Everytime I'm trying to do so, all those rainbow-cult people comes at me like flies and my content is actually deleted. "Different opinions are okay, as long as they're different in the same way". Please, don't stop making vids. It's literally music for my ears hearing this.
Also, when I say the same thing as you, they can't whitemale me, so I'm pick me girl, instantly. :)
Dude what in the actual fuck has happened to this world? I can’t wait to leave this realm.
Thanks for watching everyone, this video was hell to make. I had to reupload it 3 times cause HBO kept copyright striking me. The video originally had tons of animated clips & one joke I thought was really funny but nah copyright strikes suck.
Anyways regardless let me know what you think & what you’d like to see next. Have a dope day

I had a feeling that you would do a video on this; shame I didn't get notified sooner though
I at least think that the Charlotte Webber pun was funny.
Thank you for speaking truth and being real in a world full of fake woke nonsense! You rock my freind! Keep hitting them home runs!
Wait you didn't know racists are often super attracted to races they hate? That's a surprise. I thought it was obvious.
This shit started when the woke arseholes at the BBC gender flipped Doctor Who, the longest running and most successful SF series in the world. I drove 60% of viewers to switch off and lost them almost all of their merch sales. Yet the arseholes doubled down on it and continued to virtue signal. The rot has spread through popular culture like cancer.
Mindy apparently wrote this as a mean spirited tantrum highlighting her own insecurities under the guise of some ultra big brain postmodernist critique
The lucky thing is Robert Zemeckis refuses to sell the rights to Back to the future, he is pleased with his trilogy and has seen how reviving old franchises gets massacred by Hollywood. He has gotten several offers but refused them all, knowing it will only ruin his legacy.
That's what George Lucas should've done.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, more like Rise of the Breasts cause apparently robots can get top surgery now
I will say Velma has been groundbreaking in the way it’s United all sides of the political spectrum against it
If we were talking Scooby Doo canon, it would make more sense for Velma to be asexual with some degree of romantic attraction
Everything was hilarious about this review.
One thing to add, in the original show Velma is definitely attracted to Fred, there are a few episodes where she throws glances at him or looks jealous if him and Daphne pair up. Maybe she made Velma bi, but also kept the attractiveness towards Fred, just in a very very disturbing manner. If she acts the same in real life, I pity the guy she keeps hidden from the world.
And probably Kelly Kapoor's behaviour was not actually acting....
Being thoroughly out of touch with most of what modern entertainment companies produced over the past ten years or so has enabled me to embrace serenity and happiness while celebrating my classically liberal values of equality, open-mindedness, empathy, kindness, charity and acceptance. I am impervious to the current trends of blatant, hypocritical bigotry, hatred of traditional positive values, and the destruction of everything once respected and valued in Western society, including art, music, history, and culture.
Shaggy's real name is actually Norville Rogers. At least they didn't change his name lol
When you said "paraplegic spiderman swinging around" and started laughing idk why but how hard you were laughing made me start wheezing🤣🤣🤣
She basically had one good role 20 years ago and has been scrambling to stay relevant ever since. It's not like she's even trying new things to stay relevant she just keeps playing that same character
i can't blame her for trying to continue to succeed, however they could have learned from their mistakes.
Well, to be honest, it's one more "good role" than I've had...
I started cracking up at the end when you were laughing so hard you couldn’t even talk. 💀 😂
How many times Hollywood needs to get single digit scores audience scores on Rotton Tomatoes until they realize these "reimaginations" dont work?
I don't know how I didn't notice this. Fred calls the fork a "Dinglehopper"... They just made a Disney's Little Mermaid reference, when Ariel takes the fork to the seagull guy. They made a LITTLE MERMAID reference in this show. How did this happen?
5:53 for the time stamp.
It honestly feels like somebody on staff was actually competent and was trying to save the show, but got blocked at most opportunities.
Which would explain why about 30% of the jokes are utterly based, but instantly dismissed by the characters.
Except Jackson failed in his Lord of the Rings adaption in that he failed in character adaption. They're some of the best movies but fail at adaptation. Tolkien wrote in a letter to people who had been planning to make LotR movies that he was more against destroying characters than destroying scenery. Jackson and his two female co-writers changed a lot of the characters to be their opposite. Faramir commits the exact opposite actions against Frodo than his book counterpart vowed to do. Aragorn became a reluctant leader as opposed to the man who willingly bore his cross of kingship, merely doubting his abilities. Gimli was originally a noble prince, a scholar, a romantic, in short, the exact opposite of a modern stereotypical dwarf, whilst movie Gimli is just a post D&D dwarf stereotype. Movie Frodo was a horror movie protagonist, a victim of his circumstances, whereas book Frodo had the might to become a horror movie monster, a Ring Lord. Movie Eowyn had to overcome sexism, which didn't exist in book, aside from Grima, because her people loved and admired her so much, they were blind to her internal struggles, caused by doubts sewed by Grima Wormtongue. Book Eowyn's character was overcoming her inner demons. Defeating the Witch King, Sauron's greatest warrior, was merely a stepping stone in said character arc. Eowyn's true character climax was with Faramir in the Houses of Healing, where they both overcame the psychological problems they had and Eowyn realized she didn't have to be defined by being a warrior but could bring peace to others and herself. Movie Arwen was originally planned and filmed to fight at Helm's Deep and when it was cut, Liv Tyler, Arwen's actress, was happy, stating the writers had come to realize a female character needed to be a warrior to be a feminine character. Seeds of the modern rotten fruit we have of rotten writing were planted in part back in the likes of Jackson's Lord of the Rings movies.
I just feel like we’re inside a world sized social experiment.
Why scooby doo why seriously it was the most innocent and wholesome show ..
Now it’s all about killing young girls and labeling them as sl?ts & making me too jokes
because they've got a corruption fetish, at least i know how to control mine
I have a theory why these things keep getting green lit. Studios have to have content otherwise they have nothing to air and they die. But all writers in Hollywood, or at least the gatekeepers that put scripts in front of decision makers, have become woke now. So in order to have content studios have to green light this crap and hope it doesn't bomb as bad as they fear. You add in feedback from very carefully selected focus groups that give a false idea of how popular something will be and the fact Hollywood is the biggest echo chamber in the world and yeah I can very much understand why these keep getting made. They literally can't make anything else.
I mean failed shows get hundreds of millions in legally government sponsored tax evasions
Shows also take about 5 years to make from concept to launch, so they’re behind the 8 ball in terms of advancing with a product before they know how the market is going to react to it. In about 5-7 years we’re going to see shows and movies that are far different due to how people, now, are realizing what is failing, why it’s failing, and who can be hired to stop that from happening.
15:47 that got to a joke. There’s no way that this is real 🤣🤣
IT IS REAL!
I hope to god that Hollywood wont remake the classic the Great Escape, it's doesn't need remaking it is FINE IT IS A CLASSIC!
This is the FIRST TIME we see a black woman. Yeah, never seen black women before.
Right? 😂🤦🏻♂️
