What's going on with Quentin Tarantino? - Lemmy.World

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.

He mentioned in an interview that he found out that he was no longer the voice of Shaggy when he saw Will Forte credited with the role. Lillard apparently wasn’t even invited to audition.

Will Forte has one Shaggy credit in 2020.

Lillard has several after that, including one in 2025 and IMDb lists one upcoming credit too.

He’s still the voice of Shaggy IMO, just got shafted for one reboot.

Well, that’s good news. I actively stopped paying attention to new Scooby news after how hurt he expressed feeling. I wish Warner would stop making it so morally difficult to enjoy their IPs and support their creators.
