Oh my ..... the horror

The latest Scooby Doo mystery is scary — but not because of the usual monsters, ghosts, and bad guys. “Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy,” the latest direct-to-video animated installment featuring the mystery-solving and crime-fighting gang, follows Scooby, Shaggy, Fred, Velma, and Daphne to Transylvania, Pennsylvania, where they are going to check out the castle that Velma has inherited from her great-great-uncle Dr. Von Dinkenstein. Obviously, high jinks ensue, and when Daphne comes face to face with the bad guy, she is “cursed” with losing the thing that she holds most dear: her small frame. With a simple hex, the cartoon character instantaneously balloons from size 2 to (cover your eyes!) size 8.

Considering that the average clothing size American women wear is size 14 (plus-size is considered anything over size 12) and that the average woman in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is about 5-foot-4 and weighs 166 pounds, being a size 8 shouldn’t be considered the worst thing that could possibly happen to Daphne, or any woman for that matter. What if something horrible happened to her, her parents, or the rest of the Scooby-Doo gang?

[Dabanton]

wtf Daphne is size 2 and that pic is size 8? lol

That's more like size 18-22

 

[Levi]

Reprehensible.

 

[gosox333]

why won't anybody think of the children

 

[foxuzamaki]

Velma was always hotter

 

[Plywood]

Daphne is the weakest link in the group. FACT.

 

[Slayven]

The WWE Scooby movie was great.

 

[Blood Red Sky]

Jinkies.

 

[HiResDes]

That's not a size 8 lol

 

[Vaporak]

More confirmation that women's clothing size's don't make any god damn sense.

 

[Bronetta]

This is to teach Shaggy and Scooby the effects of eating too much.

 

[Fireblend]

It's like they engineered the plot to stir up as many people as possible

This still is and always will be the GOAT Scooby Doo movie:

It's such a staple of my childhood.

 

[Regiruler]

Daphne is the weakest link in the group. FACT.

The truth has been spoken. She's insufferably useless and the attempts in SC:MI to try and demonstrate the team is broken without her don't really come across very well.

It's like they engineered the plot to stir up as many people as possible

This still is and always will be the GOAT Scooby Doo movie:

Yeah, no:

 

[dallow_bg]

Twinkies.

 

[Birbo]

It's Velma's time to shine!

 

[overcast]

My ex was a size 6-8 (depending on the clothing piece), that's sooo fucking inaccurate. It's actually funny how wrong it is.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Daphne is the weakest link in the group. FACT.

...

I never even realized this until you said it.

Has she ever done anything worthwhile?

Thats not ghoul school

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

That's no size 8, that's size fat.

 

[Camp Lo]

 

[ItIsOkBro]

for clarity.

USA lying to people.

 

[Gonzalez]

Velma was always hotter

For people that like to settle.

 

[Ferrio]

Looking forward to the new influx of rule 34.

 

[Jenov]

so google says this is size 8

 

[Toa TAK]

Jesus Christ, why?

This is a fetish I just know it. I've been around 'dem stragne parts in Deviant Art.

Daphne is the weakest link in the group. FACT.

TRUTH.

But she's hotter then Velma guys, come on.

 

[Fenderputty]

Jesus in what world is that a size eight? Way to instill the size fear into young girls!

Lol my first thought. Looks like a 12+ in the larger pic.

 

[Burai]

wtf Daphne is size 2 and that pic is size 8? lol

That's more like size 18-22

US sizes.

US size 2 is apparently equivalent to a UK 6, US 8 is UK 12.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

It's Velma's time to shine!

She did in the live action movie. Played by Linda Cardenelli.

 

[kirblar]

Did the "8" come from the writer or the film?

 

[AnkiRendan]

This is missing the most important information...

Will Daphne be bound and gagged?

 

[freenudemacusers]

daphne was a size 2? maybe at lane bryant.

 

[daffy]

Is the author saying size 8 or is the movie saying size 8?

 

[PhoenixDark]

Pawgs keep winning.

 

[Paper Sparrow]

Daphne is the weakest link in the group. FACT.

The more modern takes on Scooby Doo always try to give her something. Martial arts. lockpicking, etc. And yet, she still is the most useless.

 

[Coffee Dog]

Even Mystery Incorporated didn't know what to do with Daphne. And they made Fred great!

 

[Odoul]

It's Velma's time to shine!

YEA BOI!

 

[Daemul]

That's not size 8. This part of the article caught my eye though:-

The average woman in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is about 5-foot-4 and weighs 166 pounds

That last part can't be right.

 

[User 73706]

Zombie Island is easily the best movie. Maybe followed by the one with the aliens.

They've been making Velma thirsty as fuck in the newer media like in Mystery Incorporated.

 

[MormaPope]

Yeah, no:

You're both wrong.

 

[Spinluck]

Bruh...

 

[The God]

the thicker the better

 

[AAK]

The real victim... Johnny Bravo

 

[CorvoSol]

Daphne is the weakest link in the group. FACT.

Except in Mysteries Inc, where she actually has a brain. Then Fred is the weakest link.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Velma was always hotter anyway.

 

[AbsolutBro]

Velma was always hotter

It's Velma's time to shine!

YEA BOI!

Velma was always hotter anyway.

These dudes know what's up.

 

[Green Mamba]

Except in Mysteries Inc, where she actually has a brain. Then Fred is the weakest link.

Fred drives.

 

[Daemul]

The real victim... Johnny Bravo

Best episode ever.

 

[AbsolutBro]

Except in Mysteries Inc, where she actually has a brain. Then Fred is the weakest link.

Um, no. Fred actually has all the skills that trap the bad guys. What does Daphne bring? Pretty much nothing but being bait.

 

[kehs]

Fucking yahoo.

wow.
