1. Freddy swoops in at the monster with his hang glider.

Freddy pulls out a massive net from behind his back, which was presumably held there via pixie magic and the wishes of unicorns.

Monster, unsurprisingly, just engulfs it in flames.

Freddy stares at this for several seconds, in silence, with absolutely no reaction.

2. Monster spits fireball at Freddy.

Monster hits hang glider, hang glider is now on fire mere feet from Freddy.

Freddy stares at this for several seconds, in silence, with absolutely no reaction.

3. Daphne sees hang glider on fire.

Daphne puts out said fire by kicking up water.

Freddy is no longer in extreme imminent danger.

Freddy stares at this for several seconds, in silence, with absolutely no reaction.

...wait, what?

...is that a muppet?

“Hey, Carl, I think I found something you’ll like.”

Carl the Animator: “Mmhmm?”

Ted the Animator: “Open up Photoshop, and load any random frame.”

Carl the Animator: “Gotcha.”

Ted the Animator: “...nice choice. Now, use the ‘quick selection’ tool to automatically grab most of the purple background.”

Carl the Animator: “Done.”

Ted the Animator: “Now, hit ‘delete’.”

Carl the Animator: “...it wants to use ‘Content-Aware’ fill. What’s that?”

Ted the Animator: “The funniest thing ever. Hit ‘ok’.”

Carl the Animator: “Ok, I was just–”

Carl the Animator: “...oh my gosh.”

Ted the Animator: “Told’ja.”

Carl the Animator: “That is... a masterpiece. The heck did it do?”

Ted the Animator: “Photoshop looked at the rest of the image, and tried to clone in a nice, natural background.”

Carl the Animator: “...which, I take it, doesn’t always work.”

Ted the Animator: “Yes indeedy. Try another.”

Carl the Animator: “Let’s see how it handles all the shapes in this one.”

Carl the Animator: “...freeeaaaky.’

Ted the Animator: “It looks like something you’d see in an ancient manuscript prophesying the end times.”

Carl the Animator: “What if we reverse it, and select a character instead?”

Ted the Animator: “Hm, smart.”

Carl the Animator: “...oh.”

Ted the Animator: “It’s like the creepiest invisibility cloak ever.”

Carl the Animator: “The selection tool likes to grab things weirdly, too... it just got Velma’s glasses while I dragged around her head.”

Ted the Animator: “Well, let’s see what happens.”

Carl the Animator: “...wow.”

Ted the Animator: “My favorite part is the elongated double face between Daphne and Fred.”

Carl the Animator: “Here, lemme grab one more from Aloha.”

Ted the Animator: “Should be a–... wait, Carl, you missed selecting one of the background guys’ fa–”

Carl the Animator: “BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”

Ted the Animator: “Magnificent.”

Carl the Animator: “He looks so confused!”

Ted the Animator: “ ‘Um... hello? Anyone? How did I get inside this hair?’ “

Carl the Animator: “...can’t... breathe....”

Ted the Animator: “I’ll go put on another pot of coffee... it’s gonna be a looooong night of ‘shopping, I can feel it.”

Freddy: “Hey, check out that bit of rock that definitely looks 100% the same as the rest of the cliff. I wonder what would happen if I stepped on it.”

Freddy: “OH GOLLY GEE, WHATEVER COULD HAVE BEEN DONE TO PREVENT THIS UNEXPECTED OCCURRENCE”

“Well, folks... here we go again.” –Velma Dinkley

“...what’s up with the bad guy’s surfboard, anyway?”

Carl the Animator: “I dunno. It’s prolly magical or something.”

Ted the Animator: “No, like, look at the scene where the gang finds it.”

Ted the Animator: “The big reveal is supposed to be that, on the front and back, it has a huge brand sticker on it so it isn’t really ancient...”

Carl the Animator: “Mmhmm?”

Ted the Animator: “...but when he uses the board in the real scenes, the stickers are nowhere to be seen?”

Carl the Animator: “Huh. I guess it is magical!”

Ted the Animator: “And, when Velma leans it against the wall and takes off her backpack...”

Ted the Animator: “...and it cuts to a closeup...”

Ted the Animator: “...why does the surfboard completely disappear?!”

Carl the Animator: “Wow. Yeah, it’s definitely magical now.”

Ted the Animator: “Or, alternatively, you just forgot to add those things.”

Carl the Animator: “Maybe! Everything is magical when you don’t remember what you did... the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, and all.”

Ted the Animator: “...wait, did you just justify sloppy continuity with 1700s poetry? And-slash-or cult classic indie drama?”

Carl the Animator: “Probably. I’m awesome like that sometimes.”

Whether in 1969 or 2005, Shaggy has always been the *master*...

...of being inches away from someone in one shot...

...teleporting away...

...and reappearing again, seconds later.

I don’t get how automobiles in the Scooby-Doo universe work.

In this one, the rear section is so small, Shaggy and Scooby need to cram their feet up against the edge.

But just seconds before, when they freak out about a lizard, the back transforms and becomes utterly massive.

*watching movie, finding material for SDM*

*watches Daphne hold onto bridge*

*watches Daphne grab something out of her purse before it falls into the waterfall*

Me: “…um? Daphne? I really don’t think this is the time for a smoke, it’s– wait, why does  a children’s movie have ci–”

Me: “OHHHHHHHHHHHHH, it’s floss! That’s a relief, it totally looked li–…”

*thinks for a second*

Me: “…wait, do women just carry an extra-large thing of floss with them everywhere they go?”

[scoobydoomistakes]

...oh my.

So, I found something a little... interesting... in a falling animation.

It starts out simple enough...

...they start to move downward, and then...

GAHHHHHHHBHNHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

SCOOBY

WHY DO YOU LOOK LIKE WINNIE THE POOH PUT THROUGH A PASTA EXTRUDER

...wait, what happens if I un-stretch the frame?

...ah.

I don’t sleep tonight, that’s what happens.

some things were not meant to be found

“yyyyeeeeeeaaeaaaaaah maaaaaaaaannnnnnnnn”

[scoobydoomistakes]

...well, that’s a useful reaction image.

The random pig that shows up for a chase scene...

…is definitively the best part of the movie so far.

*nods in affirmation* You go, pig. You do your thing.
