Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi and William Thrasher discuss the live-action Scooby-Doo flick from 2002. 1990s teen heartthrobs were cast as the members of Mystery, Inc. in this somewhat tepid take on the classic cartoon. Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Shaggy (Matthew Lillard), and Velma (Linda Cardellini) team up to investigate the haunting of Spooky Island. The titular talking dog Scooby-Doo tags along. Could someone from their past be responsible for the growing cult at the amusement park?
Mat also raves about Never Too Young To Die, a fun 1980s James Bond knock-off starring John Stamos, George Lazenby, Vanity, and Gene Simmons. Thrasher goes on a rant on the brand new Netflix crowd-funded season of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Mat forces Thrasher to rank the hosts of Mystery Science Theater against the current gigs of the old hosts of the show, Cinematic Titanic and RiffTrax.
