[up][up][up][up]Isn't the climax for that one just a giant acid drug trip that is basically an excuse for the animators to go wild? I haven't seen it.

I know the one where Shaggy and Scooby (back in the Scrappy days) become gym teachers for an all-girls school for monster girls has gotten a hell of a cult following recently. Probably due to the setting concept and the girl ghouls.

Yeah, they're pretty neat, and I like the "the monster(s) actually ARE real" twist they go for.

And I'd just like to throw my chips down on the "the three robots can combine into one big robot" theory. They look very combine-able to me and given how Universes 2 and 11 parody Magical Girl and Sentai anime, it would be perfect for Universe 3 to have a combining mecha.

[up][up] Oh yeah it was. Even better the whole thing was real in-universe.

The monster girls movie was fun. Scooby Doo has a lot of classic movies funnily enough.

Combining mecha aren't anything new to Dragon Ball so I could see it happening.

I really want to see the Scooby Doo/Kiss crossover. Everything I've heard about it sounds incredible. Like this magical girl transformation sequence.

Wow Scooby-Doo got weird. The last movie I remember seeing from that franchise was the video game one.

That being said, what is the audience for these? How many kids know who KISS are?

I mean, you should see the most recent Scooby-Doo cartoon; that one actually gave an explanation for why there are talking animals like Scooby, Scrappy, and the cousin with the hat in the first place, when literally everything else in the franchise just doesn't draw any attention to it.

Yeah for the older crowd who knows about these people whether they be parental figures or general older fans.

For the younger crowd its seeing the gang interact with these larger than life characters. These movies are filled with hammy acting & over the top situations for pure fun.

In the wrestling movie John Cena said he speaks masked luchador. Even as someone who doesn't watch wrestling that line chuckle-worthy.

[up][up][up]Are you talking about Mystery Inc? Because Be Cool is more recent than that.

On Dragon Ball Super, how tall would you say the U6 Saiyans are compared to Krillin?

Pretty sure Kale is taller than Krillin, but not by much.

She looks taller than Caulifla and Cabba, but I could be wrong there. Maybe someone else can clear that up.

Also, has it ever been confirmed if Shaggy smokes weed? Because, lets be honest with ourselves here....he absolutely does.

[up][up] Quite the contrary, it's been explicitly denied Shaggy's a pothead. His original voice actor, the late great Casey Kasem, has even gone on record as stating he's always loathed that theory.

Well I'll be damned.

To be fair, if it has to be explicitly clarified, then I can understand why people would be inquiring. Where there's smoke, there's fire (or a blunt..) you know.

Well, as long as we're talking Scooby Doo...

The second most recent series, Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated ended with the gang not only fighting Cthulhu (or a very nasty Expy that actually ate people on screen, but flat out winning, with Scooby striking the final blow, resulting in an in-universe Retcon that undid the centuries long influence of said Cthulhu expy, and gave birth to...THE ORIGINAL SCOOBY DOO UNIVERSE, with only the gang remembering everything.

Now that, is some crazy shit.

...and now to talk about actual dragon ball: I'm down for a combining robot. The last time we saw one was when the Pilaf gang tried it against kid Goku. Not surprisingly, it didn't work.

[up][up] There's also the fact that the show's explanation for the talking animals was that they're the descendants of the Egyptian gods...who bred with animals.
