My feed has been filled with rpg geeks shitting on him. I do not know why. I assume he said something nasty, or did something worse than his usual disgusting foot fetish.

Why do I see Tarantino drama constantly? What triggered it?

    He insulted Matthew Lillard, who is famous for playing Shaggy from scooby do. Matthew also appeared as a guest star on Legends of Avantris, a D&D show/podcast, not long ago hence the overlap between the 2

      I guess he does have many credits as Shaggy. I thought he’d be known for being the main bad guy in Scream. And, on this platform, I thought we’d all go for Hackers. No, just me and u/zerocool?

        In Hackers he wasn’t really the protagonist, more of a (really good) side character IIRC. It was also in 1995.

        In contrast, he’s got some 50 or 60 credits as Shaggy now, spanning from 2002 to whenever he stops being Shaggy. Live action, animated, LEGO versions, games, etc.

        Of the movies you listed, Hackers is the only one I’ve seen. Hack the planet!

          I get that for people who had his live Shaggy role their entire lives. Scooby was primarily a cartoon for me. But I was surprised and understanding of him potentially being most famous for Shaggy, as he has like 20 credits to his name. Presumably for a lot of voice work

            Honestly if not for this comment I wouldn’t know he was the live action Shaggy and not the animated one haha. I never watched the live action ones (not that I’d recognize him even if I had tbh) :3

          I dunno, he was in Scream 6 and will be in 7 since apparently they want to keep going with this series. I still see Ghostface masks every year at Halloween. But, sure, I can agree his presence in the movie isn’t as culturally significant.

          On the flipside, Shaggy is an existing character to me that happened to be played by Lillard in later adaptations. He’s not the face of Shaggy to me because Shaggy was a cartoon first.

          But that’s my take.

              Scream 3 was the bad one, IIRC — it’s only up from there!

              Whichever one gave Ghostface the super power to copy anyone’s voice. Dumb AF. And doesn’t return in the newer films.

              They’re all pretty clever, but that one was a bit daft.
