The scooby doo cartoons, the old ones...are fine. The ghosts are just some "old man or woman" dressed up as a ghost. The Animated movies are bad....in my opinion. I watched 10 minutes of one and it had a warlock casting a spell on the gang.

Warlock on Gang violence is just more proof that we need to bring segregation back. Warlocks never attacked those gangs when they were kept in their place. Once they let them warlocks vote and own land, and started giving them jobs, that's when this country went to H-E-Double hockeysticks in a handbasket.

You didn’t watch the whole thing? How do you know it didn’t end as a hoax the way the old stuff did? I mean, it was never revealed to be “just some old man or woman” until the end. Didn’t the characters even generally think the monsters were real up until finding the incriminating clues and removing the mask?
Time out! As a skeptic, I think I agree with this. In the old Scooby Doo, all the ghosts and ghouls and magical stuff always, without fail, turned out to be a real person. Just like real life. I think it was a great lesson for kids. Nowadays, all the ghosts and magical nonsense are shown to be real in the end. It's just another show where the skeptic is just some curmudgeon who is proven wrong in the end and is "close minded". I don't hate it for fear of demones or ghosts, just that it is bad for critical thinking.
I don't think there's much wrong with the old Scooby Doo concept of no real supernatural events happening. They were locked into it and the series work as mystery stories, which they always stressed. But it's been around since the late sixties,,,
I like the new actual supernatural aspects of the movies and new tv movies ONLY because this franchise needs a new approach and they've been done well.
This is like people that bitched that the Brady Bunch movies made fun of the new series and treated the concept as drek. IT WAS. It was total 70s drek like Scooby Doo.
Remake it means reinvent it to me, because if you like the origional stuff you'll never like ANY new version
@rrpostal:
this guy is dumb for not realizing Ben Revencroft(I'm assuming this person is talking about "The Witch's Ghost") is the villain. However, more often then not, when the skeptic is proven right in fiction, they are condescending and it sends the message that belief in the supernatural in and of itself is a bad thing.
Yeah, damn those cartoons for representing reality!
Here's a new idea: Cartoons should only deal with make-believe.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
