"Scooby's the greatest cartoon character ever. He isn't cute like Mickey, or smart like Bugs, or fearless like Woody and Buzz -- he's a talking dog who's more human than I am. It's his humanity and imperfections that make him special." See more »

Wrote the screenplays for both The Specials (2000) and Tromeo and Juliet (1996) in two week binges. See more »
