Which is why I flipped the movie off, and never even bothered with the sequel, nor that live-action made for TV "prequel" that aired on CN "Real".
Velma on HBO Max.

I know the sequel is good, but it was way too little and way too late by that that point for me. At least second movie wanted to be a Scooby movie, but I rather watch almost any of animated movies that came out in the 2000s and 2010s.
Yeah, the problem of the 2 live-action scooby movie, its that they feel more like a parody of Scooby-doo than an actual movie.
To quote Kate from Don't Look Up, "They're not even smart enough to be as evil as you're giving them credit for."
You don't cancel a bunch of progressive cartoons, denying people the legal means to watch it as not being smart. In fact it so the kind of brain-dead dumb move a bunch of Republican backed execs can do
‘Velma’ Is Now The Third Worst Rated TV Show In IMDB History
Two more episodes of Velma aired on HBO Max this week, and they do not seem to have changed any minds about what is genuinely one of the worst-reviewing shows I’ve ever seen.

I don’t personally have a dog in this race because so despise all things Scooby Doo, but you’d have to have Loki’s own silver tongue to convince a group of people so notoriously tight fisted with money to let you make something deliberately inflammatory in the hopes of people rubber-necking to watch it out of morbid fascination.
It's easy: "Let's make the most rage worthy "woke" title after we completely murdered the entire animation studio department so it would be easy to pitch Reality Show garbage and piss off those seething trannies."
I've seen tons of people rant about this show but I've not seen anyone talk about Scooby.
Did they recast Scooby as a pitbull now that they made Shaggy into a black dude that doesn't go by Shaggy any longer (one would think they'd lean hard into Ultra Instinct Shaggy, I guess whoever wrote this show has no idea of what ultra instinct is), or is he not even in the show?
Either way, it's been a good 25 years since I last cared about this IP, I don't think this is any worse than those random real life movies they made with it, it's only bad in a different way lol.

Well....zoinks?
I think the idea is that the people who lampoon anime about this sort of thing are the same people whom this show is trying to appeal to. If you think there aren't nutty SJWs who complain every time boku no hero has some big titty char on the cover you don't visit twitter much XD.
Recently, there was a char who is invisible so she goes by naked and you usually don't see her but she became visible and was on one of the covers, and you had idiots posting edits of her with clothes covering her up when in the cover she was totally naked (though you couldn't actually see anything because of her pose) and tons of people were calling fans who defended the art creepy or pedos lol.
So yeah, it's not the fans of anime who are complaining about this show. It's the anime haters, or those who are trying to ruin/westernize it at any rate.
Also, a lot of the people who hate on this show are gonna just be right wing conservatives who are gonna be anti-sex but those types typically aren't even aware of anime to begin with so they would launch attacks based on pure prudishness. It's interesting how the conservative prudes and the SJWs come to have the same opinions when it comes to sex sometimes though. Food for thought.

A…am I reading that right…1. fuggin 3? Even for IMDb that makes, well um, the Sharknado sequels look good.
Strangely/sadly I’m all the more compelled to peek into the void for myself to witness the carnage. And I’m not alone by a long shot, considering it’s right behind TLoU on the top ten.

Again, feels like a show written deliberately to be bad and generate hate watching. Being bad is easier than being good, and getting people angry and exacerbated is a lot easier than making them happy. Why put in the effort to make a good show, when a bad one gets the same ratings? Who cares about the audience score if they keep watching it?

Not only is Mindy Kaling a talentless hack, she non-consensually kissed a male co-star, and threatened to fire anyone who told people about it.
