The Live-Action Scooby-Doo Movie Keeps Me Awake at Night

In Vulture’s video series Mad About It, we obsessively dig into the most frustrating plot holes and unanswered questions across pop culture.

Once in a lifetime there comes along a film so baffling, it challenges us to look past the screen, past our preconceived naive notions of “what art means,” and deep into the twisted mazes of our own souls. Scooby-Doo is not one of those movies, but it has kept me awake at night since 2002. There’s a million things that don’t add up in this movie, but there’s one scene in particular that I just can’t get past.
