This has potential based on the trailer... and the level of involvement from JJ Abrams. He royally F'ed up Star Trek and Star Wars so he needs to be HANDS OFF for Lovecraft Country.

Apparently this isn't your typical streaming service or syndicated series. This was done through Indiegogo, which for me makes it more interesting. It's awesome to see small time developers do something unique. Essentially they are wanting to do a one hour pilot, then have the chance to do a ten episode season. I legit hope it's good and I hope they are able to do the full season. A darker, more adult version of "scooby doo" sounds like it will be a fun watch.

Here is the blurb from the site:
Mystery Incorporated is a fresh new series designed to tell the story of the characters from Hanna-Barbera's "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?" with a modern filter for a new generation.

Set in the small town of Coolsville, OH and inspired heavily by shows like “Supernatural”, “Riverdale”, and the original “Scooby-Doo” cartoons. We enter a world where monsters are real, demons guard every crossroad, and spirits lurk in the dark.
And the trailer:

HBO is bringing back new, legit Loony Toons with their new streaming service, HBO Max. And these aren't modern art rejects like some of the remakes hitting the tube these days, these have to look and feel of the originals. I'm seriously impressed with the trailer.

The Batman, new movie starring Robert Pattinson as Wayne. I was way hesitant when I heard Pattinson, Mr. Twilight-Sparkle-Vampire, was cast, not to mention yet "another" BM movie. But from this trailer, omg, it has the grim and dark look and Pattinson might just be up there with Keaton. And man, when you get into the trailer at the 1:41 mark, lol, "The hell are you supposed to be?".... :shock:

Hell yeah.

Been hearing the same, but have yet to check it out. On my list to watch though.
