    If scepticism is the underlying philosophy of the show, then why do they fall for it every single time?

    I guess it's a valid point (hell, philosophy has come up with crazier examples), but I think there are better examples you could use.

    It's fair enough; even when I was at the age where I would actually watch Scooby-Doo, I was annoyed at any real monsters there, more so than the fact that every episode is essentially the same.

    Only Shaggy and Scooby always fall for it, and they're mocked for it.

    Admittedly, the show was so forgettable that it left plenty of memory gaps in my brain, but the one thing I remember (like a distorted TV set) is that "A man in a mask?" is constantly treated as a big deal.
  • MalkavianMalkavian
    MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    Nah, it's who the man in the mask is that is the big deal. They're always ready to take off the mask and say 'let's see who you really are!'

    I see.

    I never saw the appeal in the show. I sort of enjoyed the camp for one episode, except every episode seemed to be the same.

    You should try Mysteries Inc. It follows the same formula but does a good job of finding new gimmicks and shaking it up. There's also a new character focus that I like.

    Also, Daphne joins a Within Temptation-style band in one episode.

    I remember there was some goth band in one of the movies. I think it was the Hex Sisters. I also recall that movie being really freaky for a Scooby-Doo movie (it was the one with zombies and catpeople). But I doubt the band was like Within Temptation.

    God, I'm such a nerd.

    Gonna go see if my school has a counselor at lunch =/


    No idea what I'd say. Eh, first I have to sort through the colossal fuck-up that is our English department's management of our speech assignments.

    @Everest: Actually, the Hex Girls were in the movie with the witch. I know they showed up in one of the later versions of the show as well, and possibly in other movies, but I don't think they could've been in the zombie one because that one came before the witch one and in the witch one the gang hadn't heard of them.

    Riiiiiight. Thanks, Nyktos.

    I hate it when I end up liking something less because of the overzealous fans attached to it. I end up looking for things wrong with it just so I can counter their claims of supposed brilliance.

    Just so people don't think I'm a massive Scooby-Doo nerd, the witch movie is actually the only one I remember well at all.

    Though, admittedly, I was a massive Scooby-Doo nerd at one point in my life...

    Guh. I don't know when the teachers I've asked for recommendation letters will be done, but I need to start applying to colleges soon, dammit!

    Human Revolution's main theme came on as I was reading this. How oddly fitting.

    Cute: D: That sucks that she's abusive! *hugs*

    On Scooby Due: I remember the zombie one! I think it was called (unimaginatively) Scooby Doo on Zombie Island

    Feel better, Cute.

    I just watched Baccano! episode 12.

    the "oh god i'm so fucking wet" face Nice makes is hilarious.

    Sleeping sucks.  I can't fall asleep because I'm not tired apparently but fuck that because I'm way too tired to be able to think right now and I have shit to do. :/

    My dog died  at midnight the night before. I played this when we buried her with some of her squeaky toys and flowers. She lived a good life of 13 years.

    ^^^ So sorry to hear that.

    On a lighter note,today I learned that Franken Fran is shounen,while Crayon Shin Chan is seinen. Japanese demographics make no sense most of the time.

    Also I want to read a josei manga just to see how they are
  • MillerCrossMillerCross

    Shin Chan has crass humor that kids can't see or understand, Franken Fran speaks in a language everyoone understands

    The language of moe.

    Nah, Franken Fran speaks in the language of body deformations.

    But I guess that is moe for some too.

    The Adult Swim dub has that. The original is practically a kid's show.

    THOUGH I'm talking about the anime here. Maybe the manga,which is the one with the seinen demographic, has a different tone

    Guys who live outside of the UK and in the US:

    Edit: Huh, never knew Hulu was US only.

    Finally gonna be able to get something done today, and it's only . . . 6:30. This new practice schedule is killing me.

    At least practice wasn't too tiring today.
