When Scooby-Doo met Peter Max…

I wish when I smoked weed crazy stuff like that would happen. All I get is kinda hungry and the urge to watch Venture Brothers.

If only drugs were that groovy!

Celia says:

I wonder how many “scooby snacks” were consumed for the making of that PSA?

Tissa Tack says:

What the….? ….. I don’t know if the Scooby Doo music made this hilarious or even more terrifying…

That running scramble before he gets pulled in reminds me of Ryan Larkin’s Walking; the foreshortening and the drawing.

Zoinks!

The walk Cycle in 0:25 is terrible, probably the animator didn’t believe in what he drew

“I would have had a great trip, too–if it wasn’t for you meddling kids…”

I’ll bet Robert “Tiger” West did the xerography on this thing.

Fausto says:

Wow, that’s one trippy PSA

I would think that would be a very effective anti-drug ad — Hanna-Barbera makes taking drugs look really, really boring.

Some cool animation there. Reminds me of the Cartoon All-Stars from years back. So many characters saying words I never thought they’d say…
Weren’t they working on a newer version?

Scooby “Doobie” Doo!

(I know, it’s not original - but it sorta works)!

Man, now I want to spark up after watching that.

It was curious how Disney’s creative overseer of the day hired a talented artist who was known to have dropped a little acid to storyboard the ’stoned’ sequence of “Cartoon All Stars to the Rescue”, which, as everyone knows, completely eradicated street drugs of every kind on earth.

Alas, this never convinced Shaggy to quit his vice

I have seen worse.

Does anybody remember the
“Why do you think they call
it dope” animated tv spots?

butmess–

I remember those “Dope” spots. They look as if Filmation had made them.

The H-B one seems to have a subtext of “If you do drugs, you’ll turn into a ‘Scooby-Doo’ villain.”

Don’t do drugs, just spent all day watching TV and eating Corn Curls.

Amazing. It’s some of the best animation I’ve ever seen from Hanna Barbera (which is typically really choppy).

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
