“I’m… not sure how we’re gonna depict this, Carl.”
Carl the Animator: “Hey, we’ll figure it out, we always do.”
Ted the Animator: “Have you read the script? An entire underground house is supposed to rotate.”
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “I’m diggin’ the outside matte so far.”
Ted the Animator: “Yeah, but the interior shot is the real issue.”
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “Cool mechanism.”
Ted the Animator: “Ugh. There’s just not enough time to have it all make physical sense.”
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “The pit’s edges would hit the roof, the top would need massive, obvious external gaps that aren’t there in order to turn....”
Carl the Animator: “You might be overthinking this slightly.”
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “The entire plot hinges on this concept! I was able to hide the first rotation with this shot, but we’re gonna have to show it eventually.”
Carl the Animator: “Chill. Here, I’ll take over. Lemme do the rotation.”
Ted the Animator: “...you sure? It’s a lot of frames.”
Carl the Animator: “I got this.”
*two hours later*
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “So, whadya think?”
Ted the Animator: “Well… despite the random semi-zoom that happens half-way…”
Carl the Animator: “Yeah.”
Ted the Animator: “…and the ‘indistinguishable ground’ apparently being bright blue…”
Carl the Animator: “Yeah.”
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “...and some minor coloring errors...”
Carl the Animator: “Yeah.”
Ted the Animator: “...and the weird, morphing trees...”
Carl the Animator: “Yeah.”
Ted the Animator: “...nice job. That’s an insane number of frames to constantly shift perspective on.”
Carl the Animator: “Boom. I get a gold star.”
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “...it still doesn’t explain why the rest of the roof completely disappears into the ground right after, though.”
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “Hey, after drawing the same roof 33 times, everybody reaches their limit eventually.”

This episode’s intro has already had so much great stuff, you could almost forget...
Tumblr media
...it has freakin’ Batman in it.
And Robin, and Robin’s lack of pants.
Tumblr media
After meeting the gang, they find a bouncy clown filled with money, but then...
Tumblr media
Batman: “Just as I suspected! Counterfeit!”
Tumblr media
Batman: “A masterpiece of duplication, except for one tiny slip-up.”
Tumblr media
Robin: “What’s that, Batman?”
Tumblr media
Batman: “President Lincoln never wore a turtleneck sweater.”
...ok, I don’t normally give props to the script, but...
Tumblr media
...that’s a freakin’ great line.
Deadpan delivery, no laugh track... you get a gold star, Hanna-Barbera.

Sometimes...
Tumblr media
…two little frames…
Tumblr media
…manage to have…
Tumblr media
…more issues…
Tumblr media
…than logic would dictate…
Tumblr media
…could ever possibly occur.

Ok, so, Shag ‘n’ Scoob are investigating a tree...
Tumblr media
...with a completely identical-looking branch.
Verrrrry unsuspicious.
Tumblr media
Next, it all wiggles around as Shaggy walks up to it...
Tumblr media
...and, between the wide shot and the closeup...
Tumblr media
...erm... changes an eensy-weensy bit.
Though let’s be honest, the level of detail in the closeup is gorgeous.
But if you think a lack of tree mechanism is a big continuity issue...
Tumblr media
...well, in a scene only a few minutes later...
Tumblr media
...they even forgot to add the hole.
'70s Hanna-Barbera was like a bunch of super-talented animators being forced to play the telephone game, and needing to guess what the last guy had done.

Now, when this scene zooms in...
Tumblr media
…alllll the way…
Tumblr media
…and we cut from “security monitor”…
Tumblr media
…to “real life”…
Tumblr media
…you might think the biggest issue is a missing Mystery Machine and some new sign dots.
Nope.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are darker forces at play.

Unsurprisingly, Velma is being attacked by a giant wobbly clown.
Tumblr media
Because that’s just another day at the office for the Scooby gang.
It knocks her over… 
Tumblr media
…and from where this gif ends, you might assume her glasses fell on the floor. 
But no.
Tumblr media
Naturally, they phased out of existence the very second they landed.
Tumblr media
Wherever did they go?
Easy.
Tumblr media
They teleported 15 feet away… to exactly where she landed.
Tumblr media
Because… logic?
i’m so confused

*watching episode for SDM*
Tumblr media
*notices Batman suddenly gains a large, bizarrely-prominent ring*
Me: “Wait, he never had that earlier, right?” 
Tumblr media
Me: “Huh. Wonder what crazy shenanigans are gonna happen with it no–”
*literally the very next second*
Tumblr media
*Batman now has gloves on*
Tumblr media
*the ring is nowhere in sight, and never comes into the story again*
Tumblr media
*and Batman has no nose*
Comic fans, help me out here... is this canon?

Between this wide shot...
Tumblr media
...and the closeup that comes after...
Tumblr media
...Scooby’s expressions are perfect.
Tumblr media
“So, um... gang?”
Tumblr media
“Unless I’m quite mistaken...”
Tumblr media
“...wasn’t there a completely different person in front of me less than a second ago?”
Even Creepy Background Monkey seems confused.

It may take 1800~ frames to create one minute of standard video...
Tumblr media
...but it only takes two to animate Scooby infinitely eating Scooby-Snacks.
Now, that’s efficiency, right there.

“Compliment and critique time, Carl.”
Carl the Animator: “Aw yeah, let’s go.”
Ted the Animator: “First of all, nice background gradients.”
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “Thanks.”
Ted the Animator: “Very natural to how light falls. Good stuff.”
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “Ok, so... what’s the critique?”
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “…these look absolutely nothing like the same background.”
Carl the Animator: “Hey, if punching a clown requires teleporting into a dark nether dimension, that’s a sacrifice I’d be willing to make.”

I’ve always liked the episodes set in amusement parks.
Tumblr media
As locations go, they’re always–...
...
...wait, what did that sign say?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
...ah. 
Yes. Right. Dog burgers. Perfectly-normal thing for a sign to say.
I’m just... gonna hope they’re burgers for dogs.
