#velma sucks

[smindersonfan]

Keep calm and

SHAGGY WAS NEVER A STONER!!!!!

I don't know what's going on in your heads that makes you think a super thin guy can't just have a hearty appetite, but you need to get that FIXED! PRONTO!

[corrinnecreates]

So, I saw Velma and it's the most atrocious thing I have EVER seen. This is why I'm redesigning Scooby and the gang, starting with Velma herself.

Here is my Fanart of the real Shaggy with Velma and the Black Shaggy with Mindy Kaling cosplaying self Insult

Corey Riffin Says No To 2023 Velma

[casekek]

my hottest take is that the Mystery Gang is so much cuter when they’re all ride or die best friends

[marysunburn]

Velma (2023): is built on crass humor involving drugs, nudity, sexual references, gore, blood, on-screen violence, a general tone of cynicism and collective meanness that isn’t welcoming, isn’t soothing and doesn’t care for anyone’s triggers

Every single review of Velma (2023) ever: MOST POLITICALLY CORRECT SHOW EVER

[dress-and-impress]

Scooby Doo is the most iconic and timeless show in existence. Everything about it is peak mystery solving, peak humour and peak companionship.

(The only exception to this statement is Velma… but scooby doo isn’t in it so it doesn’t count… it never counts)

[coolsvilleprincess]

All it took was trying to draw in the style one time for me to decide that me personally, I enjoy the vibe of the Be Cool art style, it's goofy and silly and fun and I had great time trying to capture it. Except Scooby himself, because his proportions confused me and it stressed me out

[s0sorry]

Because the Velma HBO Series is so confident in their garbage fire version of the gang, I figured I’d share some of my stupid Headcanons:

-Fred and Velma met in third after they bonded over their mutual love for Nancy Drew and Ghost Busters.

-Shaggy and Daphne both come from wealthy families and would often hang out during all those fancy functions. Daphne would drag Shaggy along with her shenanigans and get them into trouble.

-When Fred and Velma get to middle school they join robotics. They usually get volunteered to help the Drama Club stage crew.

-Fred is autistic and aro/ace

-Velma has Asperger’s and is a tiny lesbian

-Daphne has ADHD and is the only straight one in the group

-Shaggy has severe anxiety and depression, is pansexual and their pronouns are he/they

-Shaggy is a star athlete and the stress of that raises his anxiety. Daphne drags them to the shelter to adopt an emotional support dog and that’s how he gets Scooby.

-Daphne is super popular, not because she’s pretty/hot like in Velma but because she joins a bunch of new clubs every few months and is a genuinely nice person to everyone she meets.

-Fred meets Daphne in 8th grade during a production of High School Musical (Daphne plays Ryan) and she immediately befriends him despite Fred not being the most socially inept person.

-Fred gushes about his new friendship to Velma and insists that she has to meet Daphne immediately. Velma ever the pessimist doubts they’ll get along but if Fred likes her than she’ll give it a shot.

-Upon meeting, Velma immediately developed a crush on Daphne and Fred makes fun of her for it.

-Of course Daphne introduces them to Shaggy

-Shaggy is homeschooled until their sophomore year of high school.

-The gang goes to all of Shaggy’s sporting events (track meets/gymnastics/swim meets)

-Velma joins the math team in high school and keeps to robotics.

-Daphne focuses on drama club and writing for the school newspaper and takes martial arts lessons in her free time. She also joins the track team with Shaggy.

-Fred sticks to robotics and continues to work on stage crew for the drama club.

-Shaggy takes a culinary course at the community college. Cooking relaxes him.

-The gangs first mystery is who trying to sabotage the senior prom but because they’re sophomores they have to either find a date or sneak in. Velma is shocked that she is the only one to get a date.

-they all joined the cheer squad but Fred is the only one who stuck with it

I’m too tired to think of any more right now

Oh and none of them date, they’re all just really good friends

[s1ld3n4f1l]

Tbh I wish a lot of people would give things that are considered universally bad a chance. Watch it.

Like even if you still hate it, now you hate it better. People who just repeat points they've heard from people online are one of my biggest pet peeves.

[corrinnecreates]

Here’s my redesign, of Daphne. Her design really wasn’t that bad, but I still wanted to redesign her. I was going for damsel in distress who can defend herself type of vibe. What do you guys think?

[winterr-w0nderland]

People kept joking about how the Gang in the Velma show just looks like different characters with a Scooby-Doo color Platte so I did some funky editing of how they would look of they were just original characters and

Literally without the colors they look nothing like the og Scooby-Doo doo, velma is the only one that still resembles velma lmfao

[spacephrasing]

so listen

[my-fabulousness-has-arrived]

Velma... again (just my opinion)

I really hope the writers understand what we’re trying to say here about the show and why all the backlash is happening.

It’s about the legacy of SCOOBY FRICKING DOO, the way yes the original show/franchise/cartoon had some issues, but overall it was actually a very free space and loving of all the characters and their distinct personalities, especially considering the time it came out. (the non animated first movie did a good job of highlighting some of the character flaws, imo - not the best job, but these writers could’ve helped that)

The true fans knew that daphne isn’t dumb, stupid or one-dimensional

We knew Velma was sharp, self aware, and a loving personality

We knew shaggy was the adorable sweetheart who bumbles around sometimes not knowing what he’s doing, but knew he loved scoob and his gang

We knew Fred (honestly I never liked Fred, he has quite a few issues but not of mean/cold hearted ness just some ignorance and arrogance) cared about the team and prided himself on being there for his gang, and did always look out for all of them.

And most of all, we knew scooby and we loved him always.

This show… forgets all of that and fails to realise the impact the show had to so many people

Encouraging people to be confident like Daphne’s fashion sense (and showed she could be insecure about other things- mystery Inc)0

Encouraging people to be smart like Velma, to me she always inspired that no matter who I’m friends with, I can be true to myself and that even not being the center of attention (tho she did deserve it) doesn’t matter if my friends accept and love me as I am

The show stood for so much more than just funny mysteries solved by a wonky gang, while also remaining to be the funny mysteries solved by a wonky gang.

So I wanted to upload another thing onto this account, which is my take on The Mystery Gang from Scooby Doo.

Mainly because since I hate the Velma show and no I’m not bothering to watch it because it’s bad as I see anything from it.

So here’s the info on this redesigned mystery gang:

Fred Jones.

-Popular fresh boy in school.

-Son of the mayor, usually doesn’t talk about it due to his father being wrapped up in his own work.

-He might be popular, but he’s willing to help others in any situation, and handle bullies.

-Has a collection of mystery/detective films he watched as a kid, his favourite is the Sherlock Holmes ones.

-Has a crush on Daphne, not because of how she looks, but of who she is.

-In fact, he wants to confess to her, but he’s usually had other girls rejecting him and he’s scared she might do the same.

-His father is unaware he’s part of a mystery solver gang, but he wouldn’t allow it if he knew since he wants his son to be a lawyer.

Velma Dinkly.

-Smart grade-A student in science and biology class, not very popular though.

-Met Fred when she was getting bullied, she watched his mystery/detective films and both came up with the idea of being mystery solvers themselves.

-Was childhood friends with Daphne, but both lost touch as they were focusing on other things as they were growing up, but they still get along.

-She and Fred met Shaggy and Scooby at a abandoned train station, the same place where they encountered their first ghost.

-She doesn’t make a big deal out of her intelligence, and usually helps people with their grade problems.

Daphne Blake.

-Popular girl in school, and famous model (Which is done by her parents) there is.

-Takes martial arts classes in order to defend herself, as she hates the whole ‘damsel in distress’ memo.

-Actually lost touch with Velma as she went to New York to do modelling for 2 years, she wasn’t quite happy to move from home for that.

-Her family started off poor, but now they are living in luxury with her mom being a actress and her dad being a doctor, they do care about what Daphne wants but are unaware she hates modelling and wants to do artistic work.

-She doesn’t seem to like those popular girls that would bully people for no reason, but sadly she’s friends with those popular girls, and is unable to leave them as they would threaten her.

-Joined the gang 3 weeks after their first encounter with ghosts.

Shaggy Rogers.

-Not very popular in school, but luckily isn’t bullied.

-He’s in Animal Care class to learn about animals as his mom works at a vet, which inspired him to help animals.

-Shaggy is very good at communicating with animals, people nickname him DollitteJr.

-He’s scared of almost anything, this is from a traumatic event he had when he was 9.

-He almost eats anything, in fact, he doesn’t realise he accidentally eats dog food sometimes.

-Met Scooby Doo when he was a stray in the subway, he gave the name to the dog when he got the idea from the cheap dog food name: Scooby Snacks.

-Him and Fred are childhood friends, they’ve always been even whilst growing up, which explains why he never got bullied.

-Him and Velma live in the normal neighbourhood, but they never spoke to each other much as Shaggy was not very sociable with girls.

Scooby Doo.

-He was actually experimented on for purposes of illegal research, this was at the time when he was a pup.

-He managed to escape but ended up as a stray.

-Shaggy took him in and considered him a friend.

-Scooby hasn’t been able to trust humans much as his trauma from humans is that reason. (He only seems to trust Shaggy)

-The experiments gave him the ability to speak and understand humans, but doesn’t do it much as it could cause suspicion.

-He wears a scarf because he doesn’t like collars as he was forced to wear electric shock ones during the experiments, he seems to like it.

-The gang are aware he can speak, but promise to not tell anyone.

I might be uploading more, because half of the artwork I’ve got is from my D.A account and I want to keep this account alive.

like, the one nice thing about velma is the designs so it baffles me whenever someone complains about them
