Velma was horribly miscast. They took one of the most beautiful women in the world, and tried to make her look unattractive by putting her in glasses. Then only to have her take off her glasses, and suddenly shes hot. And they really drove it home by having her in a skin tight latex suit, that showed her boobs popping out.
@@plasticcargo what did he do? Was he supposed to force a older Henry cavil in a new story for a youngest cast? Sometimes you gotta just take the hit and restart smh.
@@bstims2506 Not saying it wasn’t in both parties best interests, but they could’ve just not drawn up the contract again no? I’ve never liked the DCCU anyways, and they pulled him in right after making the right choice in leaving Witcher only to let him go after his cameo in Black Adam. It’s a significant blow to the company as a whole, and that’s on James Gunn.
I love how actors and celebrities would much rather do a podcast with a real person than a talk show with a fake scripted host. It really humanizes celebrities and makes you relate to them and understand them on a level you didn’t think you could
Oh, you should definitely check out a lot of the ex-Disney celeb podcasts… @Hitthebrake with Bradley Steven Perry and Jake Short, @christycarlsonromano, @PodMeetsWorld, @TheAlwaysSunnyPodcast
This sort of story should open the eyes of everyone when drama happens in the tabloids and how things are laid out for others to read or watch. Two/three sides to every story
Such a shame. Freddie Prinze Jr didn't deserve to be treated that way. And he's right, the other cast members deserved the same money he was getting by the second one. Freddie was the best live action Fred I've seen on screen. He got the character just right. This sounds like a situation that my favorite actress Neve Campbell is dealing with right now with Paramount and Spyglass. After leading five Scream movies since 1996 they decided they didn't want to pay her to be in Scream 6. She said no and now everybody's fingers are crossed that she gets the pay she deserves and returns for Scream 7.
FPJ has the right mindset. Rather than get bent out of shape at the studio for mistreating him, he did the movie then severed ties with them. Also, good on him for sticking to his guns and not paying for their raises himself. He earned his status in the industry, and while the cast absolutely all deserved pay raises, that’s entirely on the studio to pay for those raises. Like he said, the movie made the studio 3 quarters of a billion dollars, so it’s greedy and stingy of them for having the nerve to ask FPJ to take a pay cut.
those films were legendary in terms of live action animation coming to life. No other series transformation has done it so well in terms of casting other than maybe harry potter or lotr as the few exceptions imo
I’m so GLAD Freddie said no because that’s what the studios want you to do is be agreeable and not speak up when they want you to to submit to some bull. When these studios are loaded from the hard work of the actors, the studios need to make sure they pay the actors well. I think stuff like this happened because it was the early 2000s and studios were getting away with stuff more but even now actors speak up because you deserve to if you and cast are making them rich, they can pay you very well for you’re services.
Dang poor Freddie :) I remember I liked him enough when I was younger and now I have huge upgrade of respect and sympathy. Seems like a sweet guy that didn't always get the respect he deserved.
@@btafbm He might still be right though. It made $275 Million at the box office but back when DVDs were all the rage the sales of the movies DVD would often equal or even overtake the amount of money made at the box office. So there is a possibility that it made $750 million in total.
I respect Freddie's choice because it's the company's job to give them the raise not him but I'm a bit biased but I feel like Sarah Michelle Gellar should have been paid more than him but I know that he was a movie star and she was a HIT TV STAR who at this time was nominated for a GOLDEN GLOBE for the Season 5 of Her HIT TV SHOW (BUFFY) but I guess that doesn't matter also Matthew Lillard deserves a raise because he was spot on Shaggy as well as Miss Cardelini who did a fantastic job as Velma.
You have to remember that the WB was dead last in the ratings. A hit on the WB/UPN was a flop on any other network at that time. SMG was not Jennifer Aniston. She wasn't helping making her network a billion dollars.
@@kazaloolovesgames okay I'm just saying SMG face was more well known at this time and FPJr. Had multiple movie flops after She's All That and she has alot more fans (Fans who will watch her show or movie despite being in a Network that's always last in the ratings) than her husband and as I said I'm Biased because I'm one of those Fans that watch her movies because she's in it.
It's pretty crazy they got Scooby snacks for a bonus. Considering Scooby doo has been around for a very long time. and the whole cast just brought it to life.
I'm remember just watching TV one day back in 02 cartoons switches then all of a sudden live action Scooby Doo appears on the screen that's when I really became a fan more and more yes to all the movies that was the best childhood moment ever in life
This is nothing against Freddie because he is an amazing actor and he was perfect for Scooby Doo, as was the rest of the cast, but how did Sarah Michelle Gellar make less than him? All My Children and Buffy The Vampire Slayer which were huge hits, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Scream 2, Cruel Intentions, The Grudge. Surely she should have been payed the same as Freddie or more for the first film and the second, especially since she had done more than him.
Scooby Doo (2002) made $275 million at the worldwide box office off an $84 million dollar budget. It was certainly a financial success but nowhere near the three quarters of billion dollars that Freddy cites in this clip. Even in 2002 those numbers were solid but unremarkable.
No way it made another 500 mil in DVD sales / rentals. Even 20 years ago a movie like this made the majority of its financial haul in the theaters. I call bullshit on his figures.
@@brendansheehy8124 and that's why you're retarded. the DVD/VHS market was a huge deal from the 80s until the 10s and it was well known in the industry that a movie that did okay theatrically could make up the difference in the home video market. movies like Scooby Doo did great in theaters but they absolutely cleaned up in the home video market. there wasn't a kid in the early 00s that hadn't seen/didnt' own a copy of that movie. and none of that touches on the merchandising. I wouldn't be surprised if between theatrical and home video + merchandising the movie ultimately made $750m by the time they were negotiating the sequel.
I feel sorry that Freddie hasn't appeared in anything delightful since Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. I would be grateful to get my acting career started by playing Fred Jones at age 26.
All I know is I met the cast of Scooby Doo when they were doing some photoshoot for the first movie(step-dad transported for WB) and our boy Matthew Lillard stayed in character for us (we were kids, like 8 and 12) and took a picture with us. When we saw "Fred" he dismissed us and was yelling at someone about a car. Idk what the situation was, but that left an everlasting impression.
What I hope would happen is that Freddie & the rest of the cast of Scooby Doo does something for the upcoming 20th Anniversary of SD2: Monsters Unleashed
Matthew Lillard played a perfect shaggy his comedic timing was spot on lol he even sounded like shaggy I bet Casey casem was extremely proud Matt did shaggy justice in the movie omg and Freddy you are blessed because you and your wife got to play Fred and Daphne
It's time for a live action cast Scooby-Doo sequel. We have waited 20 years. If there was ever a market for that, it's now while my generation still has young children
No cast was better for a live action scooby doo than these guys. For me they were mystery inc and fuck WB for screwing up with these guys. Wonderful actors who gave me a childhood
