My favorite was He-Man! They always had good lessons after the show was over too.
 
Loved He-man and She-ra!!

So bummed I’m still out of likes. Grrr.
 
What came to my mind was not the Simpsons but Revenge of the Nerds movie.
 
Me, too. 🤓

I was watching an episode of Agents of Shield yesterday and someone compared a character to Scrappy Doo. It was so funny. Haven’t thought of him in years and now two reminders. Apparently we should all go wach an episode of Scooby Doo. 😆
 
I don’t think anything in Scooby Doo would make one an atheist. Maybe a deadhead.

It is a good test for the kid. If he likes Scrappy, he needs counseling.
 
Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated can get kind of dark, especially when they start killing off people. The last episode also has that demon that destroys the whole town and eats everyone. That probably isn’t very kid friendly.
 
Also I’ve heard a bunch of people who say that Witch’s Ghost is Wiccan/Pagan propaganda, but when I was a kid I never second guessed it until people started speculating about it.

Besides, it’s not even the worst of the 90s movies. That’d be Alien Invaders.

I watched all the Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated and Be Cool Scooby-Doo episodes along with some from What’s New Scooby-Doo. Not to mention some of the movies and specials.

I’ll bet that you also didn’t think you could drop animals off a cliff and have them back in the next scene, and they have a rabbit couldn’t bend your rifle causing you to shoot yourself in the face only getting dirty, and . . .

I I think that it was in the 80s that Warner Bros. actually edited the “violence” out of her cartoons for television…

I don’t get all the Wesley Crusher hate. He’s not that bad. Chill, people.

People cry “heresy” far too often on his form, but in this case it is appropriate.

Heretic!!!

🤣

😜:roll_eyes:.

That annoying person, like almost all shy of actors, was not nearly as cute as the riders thought.

He was off so often made into as much of a plot crash as Commander Cleavage (“oh, captain, I sense a…”)

He was also the source of what I believe was the first Internet hate group: something like “alt.wesley.crusher.die.die.die” (although it is possible that all.Bernie.die.die.die was first…)

I used to watch it. Meh.

If I had kids they would not be allowed to watch many Disney movies nor much of the secularist garbage out there.

Don’t be surprised if the minute they move out of your house, they go on a Disney and TV and film watching binge, complaining the whole time that their parent was a religious nut who never let them watch anything.
 
Does anyone remember Scooby Dum and Scooby Dee? I think Dum was Scooby’s cousin and I’m not sure what Scooby Dee’s relationship was to them, but they were always trying to steal a kiss from her.

I think what made Scrappy so annoying was that he actually TALKED quite articulately, not the “Rhut ro, Raggy” type of speech. And he walked upright. Scooby Doo actually acted like a DOG and Scrappy didn’t.

Reminds me of that conversation in the movie “Stand by Me” where the four boys are camping and one says, “Okay, Mickey is a mouse, Donald is a duck, Pluto is a dog. What’s Goofy?” One says that Goofy is a dog and another counters with, “But he drives a car and wears a hat.” Finishing up with that immortal line: “Yeah… what the hell IS Goofy???”
 
I worked in a bookstore once and a girl told me that her mother wouldn’t let her read The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis because a witch was a character in it.

Once I met an extreme fundamentalist who wouldn’t read any fantasy - not even Winnie the Pooh because it wasn’t “true”.

I just walked away.

I spake as a child,
I understood as a child,
I thought as a child:

but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
 
I partly blame Tolkien and C. S. Lewis for the confusion, as they used the same word for multiple things without a solid explanation, but with the proper understanding of magic, then it’s easier to see why their books are okay while more modern takes are evil.

quick example: Tolkien uses magic to describe things we don’t understand (Fellowship actually has a section describing this), grasping for power, and sorcery.

One thing my mother told me is that anything that show you learning magic is wrong. Cases where “magic” is part of your nature, like Gandalf, is okay. It may appear to be magic, but it’s something that is perfectly part of his nature and therefore isn’t magic in the evil sense.

If you want more details, read this short essay that I briefly though poorly tried to summarize

Magic Confusion, LOTR, and Shining
