While James Gunn's Superman is soaring through theatres, Dan and Keith look back at the first time he wrote a big-screen adaptation of a Warner Bros. franchise: a pup named Scooby-Doo. Digging into the casting, the rewriting of the pitch, we ask: is it over-hated? Is it more clever than it's given credit? Maybe. Then it's time to jump from 2002 to 2020 as WB tries to launch a Hannah-Barbera Cinematic Universe with Scoob!, teaming up Mystery Inc. with less familiar characters Blue Falcon, Dyna-Mutt, and Captain Caveman. Do they try too hard to launch a franchise? Is it funnier than we think? Or is trying to do a Scooby-Doo movie and Blue Falcon: Brave New World at the same time too much? We break it all down for you!
