Some of the OG cast and crew of the live-action Scooby-Doo movies opened up about the possibility an R-rated version and I will not sleep until it becomes a reality. I demand a latex Velma renaissance.
I don’t know about you but the Scooby-Doo

Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters UnleashedJonathan Jacobo’s Lab. And who could forget the extremely iconic latex Velma scene; a pure, blissful moment that lives rent-free in my mind. The opposite of “ruh roh”, imo.

I think they’d do it if we asked. I just don’t think I have the time right now!
franchise was a formative stage of my development. There was truly nothing like seeing an anthropomorphic dog and then help solve mysteries; it was innocent, fun and unproblematic viewing.
But there were also moments that were… saucy. When from Sugar Ray with Daphne while singing “Words To Me” in , for example.
And another musical moment from the same film, when Velma got pissed and belted out “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You” to both Fred Daphne.
was equally as horny, with Shaggy developing a woman’s body after drinking a potion at
So if I’m being honest, I don’t believe an R-rated is too far beyond the realm of possibility. And (who played Shaggy in both live-action movies) agrees with me, telling it “would be a super fun thing to see”.
“It’s up to the fans. I think that people listen, especially these days, to social media,” he said.
“They listen to fans and that fandom is really strong.”
(the handsome, live-action Fred) then jumped on Twitter and essentially said anyone who’d be involved in getting an R-rated off the ground was a coward, saying they “don’t have the guts” to do it.
But then , who wrote both live-action movies and co-produced , replied to Prinze and said he thought the powers that be would put the wheels in motion if asked.
I am literally begging, as a matter of life and death, for someone to ask. I never knew I needed an R-rated until now. The people need to see Velma and Daphne — played by and , respectively — share that smooch that was from the first live-action movie.
And long as that little shit Scrappy Doo isn’t in the naughty, R-rated version, I’ll be happy.
