Guest NoCalMike Posted September 4, 2002 Report Posted September 4, 2002 Ok I never saw the movie, probobaly never will, but I wonder, How in the hell did Freddie Prinze get casted as Fred? Then it hit, as soon as Gellar landed the role of Daphney, she probobaly DEMANDED that Prinze be Fred....it may sound far-fetched, but Freddie Prinze seems like the last person on Earth to be Fred......Oh god, why do I even care, it is F'ing Scooby Doo......AHHHHHHHH
Guest Ozymandias Posted September 4, 2002 Report Posted September 4, 2002 I liked the casting because as a kid I always loathed Fred so it was clever of them to cast an actor I fucking despise. BTW - The only worthwhile contribution AICN.com ever made to film fandom was bestowing FPJ with the name, "Ol' Dead Eyes". If you think about it, it's a perfect summation of why the guy is such a terrible fucking actor - there's NOTHING in or behind his eyes.
Guest El Satanico Posted September 4, 2002 Report Posted September 4, 2002 Fred is a dumbass...a clueless dumbass. So Prinze was good casting. But i suppose a taller ball of dough with clueless expressions and no ability would've worked better like say Chris Klien :shudders:.
Guest J*ingus Posted September 4, 2002 Report Posted September 4, 2002 Fred's not very bright, true, but he's not an arrogant dumbass in the cartoons like he was portrayed in the flick. Anyone else feel a combination of amusement and nausea upon hearing the news that Prinze and Gellar got married recently?
Guest Bricks Posted September 4, 2002 Report Posted September 4, 2002 Seeing as everything he did before this was box office poison, maybe Freddie also came cheap.

From: IMDB - Sarah Michelle Gellar Bio
Guest evenflowDDT Posted September 5, 2002 Report Posted September 5, 2002 Ugh... I'll never see Scooby Doo either, but the way they just blatantly made all the "fan speculations" (for lack of a better term) about Scooby Doo "true" for the picture and yet chickened out on the weed is pretty dumb.
Guest C.H.U.D. Posted September 5, 2002 Report Posted September 5, 2002 Matthew Lillard was the bomb in Scooby-Doo.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted September 5, 2002 Report Posted September 5, 2002 Chris Klein is not bad- see Election
Guest El Satanico Posted September 5, 2002 Report Posted September 5, 2002 Chris Klien in Election? Yeah and wasn't he the dumb jock? That's like saying Keanu was good in Point Break even though he was just being himself. Besides i wasn't saying that he's as bad as Prinze Jr. because frankly no one is. I was saying that he fits the big clueless goof role better.
