Did you know that for SCOOBY-DOO...

Did you know that for SCOOBY-DOO... The villain role was initially offered to Tim Curry -- a lifelong Scooby-Doo fan. But he turned it down after learning the film would include Scrappy-Doo -- a character he intensely dislikes.

[cdraymen]

That's how you know he's a Scooby Doo fan

[josephstacy]

Tim Curry turning down the role because of Scrappy-Doo is just him proving that he is a long time Scooby-Doo fan

[Ok-fjxx]

Tim curry seems like he would’ve fit right into that role

[briffsqueeze]

Scrappy Doo should have been Scrappy-ed decades ago

[HeyItsTheWykydtron]

Tim Curry should've escaped to the one place not corrupted by Scrappy-Doo... SPACE!

I don't blame him Scrappy Doo pissed my sister and me off. Stop trying to fight everything damn it. Even the bravest members of the group knew when to get the hell out of dodge.

Scrappy Doo became a hero to a lot of Scooby Doo fans because he murdered mindy kaling Velma in the latest season.

[TimTheTiredMan]

Props to Tim Curry for sticking to his principles

[cobaltblue]

I mean, the movie only has Scrappy as a villain BECAUSE he was extremely disliked by everyone so I thought it was pretty fitting

[Mr.Crow]

In that way, he proved that he was indeed a Scooby-Doo fan.

[jessecrafts]

I have heard that he didn't turn it down because of scrappy but anyway, I hope Scrappy manages to get revived one day not like come back from the dead but have him become likeable again because he actually saved the franchise once

Fun fact: Originally, Rowan Atkinson was considered for the role of Wadsworth, The Butler for the 1985 Clue film, but they turned him down because he wasn't that popular in American audiences, so they casted Tim Curry instead.

[Noir_ODonnell]

I remember reading an interview with James Gunn (who wrote this movie if I recall correctly), and he said he only made Scrappy the villain because he absolutely hated him.

I remember watching it as a kid and my dad expressed how much he hated Scrappy in the original lmao

[izzigo]

Freddy prince jr is also a big scooby doo fab i remember his episode of MTV cribs he had a whole room dedicated to scooby do merch

[justaguy]

Just wanted to say, the self cam is a welcome addition

[AdamHolland-Adz]

The movie should have ended with Scrappy ending up as a stain on the road.

[unknownperson]

He was right then and he's still right now

[gday]

Ive never felt closer to someone in my life

[groobells]

A man of principles I see. Man stood on business 😤

[seek]

You KNOW Tim was a HUGE fan when he turns down a huge role for Scrappy-Do.
