Comparison of fictional Avatar sequel titles using Scooby-Doo ghost sheet trope

Overview

A two-panel meme using screenshots from the 1969 Scooby-Doo cartoon. Top panel: Fred Jones (blonde, white shirt with orange ascot) holds a large ghost sheet labeled 'AVATAR FIRE AND ASH' over a bound character. Bottom panel: Fred holds a smaller ghost sheet labeled 'AVATAR THE WAY OF WATER 2' over the same bound character. The joke humorously contrasts fictional Avatar sequel titles, referencing the franchise's lengthy subtitle trend and Scooby-Doo's iconic 'unmasking ghosts' trope.

Origin notes

Originates from Reddit:Meme with the original title 'That felt familiar'. It is a remix combining Scooby-Doo (1969) cartoon screenshots with edited text to parody Avatar sequel naming conventions. Created using image editing software to overlay custom titles onto the original animation stills.

A meme comparing the bloodiness of historical wars. The top text reads 'Bloodiest war in history' above an animated scene from 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' showing a line of figures. From left to right, the figures are labeled 'World War 1', 'Chinese Civil Wars', and 'World War 2', with the central figure (labeled 'Chinese Civil Wars') being the tallest, visually implying it was the bloodiest. The scene features animated characters, including a prominent figure in the foreground (Aang) looking at the line. The meme uses visual hierarchy to compare war death tolls.

A two-panel meme featuring a real kitten. Top panel: Kitten with a playful expression, accompanied by the text 'hehe' at the bottom. To the right, the text reads 'You get to watch Avatar'. Bottom panel: Kitten with a disappointed expression, with the text 'not hehe' at the bottom. To the right, the text clarifies: 'It has nothing to do with Aang and it's full of fucking Smurfs'. The joke hinges on tricking someone into expecting 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' (featuring Aang) but instead referring to the blue-skinned Smurfs, creating a humorous letdown.

A split-screen meme consisting of two parts. On the left, two blue Na'vi characters from the Avatar movie are shown: one with long blonde hair is yelling aggressively while pointing at the other. Above this scene is the text 'You need to watch Avatar!'. On the right, the popular 'Smudge the Cat' meme character (a white cat with a blue lightning bolt on its head) sits unimpressed at a dining table with salad. Above this scene is the text 'I did'. The humor lies in the contrast between the Na'vi's intense insistence and Smudge's skeptical, unconvincing claim of having watched the movie, implying Smudge is lying.

This is a two-panel wholesome meme featuring Uncle Iroh, the beloved wise and kind character from *Avatar: The Last Airbender*.

The bottom left text reads "Striving to be an Iroh in the lives of yourself and those around you", paired with a wide, happy smiling portrait of Iroh on the bottom right.

A two-panel meme featuring Winnie the Pooh. The top panel displays Winnie the Pooh in his classic red shirt, sitting in a relaxed posture with a neutral expression, accompanied by the text 'Winnie the Pooh' to the right. The bottom panel shows the same character in the identical sitting posture but wearing a formal black suit with a white shirt and bow tie, with a subtly amused or smug expression; the text here reads 'Winnie the Pooh but in a suit'. The humor stems from the simple yet effective contrast between Pooh's casual original appearance and the unexpected formal attire, creating a lighthearted transformation.

This is a two-panel comedy meme edited from a live-action Star Trek scene. The top panel features a female character asking the question 'Are you two friends?'. The bottom panel shows two male characters, with the left one labeled 'Conspiracy theorists' who answers 'No.' and the right one labeled 'Flatearthers' who answers 'Yes.'. The joke is that even most other conspiracy theorists consider flat Earth belief to be too absurd and extreme to associate with, reflecting the common view that flat Earth theory is an outlier even among fringe conspiracy beliefs.

A two-panel meme contrasting a boss character's appearance when fought versus when unlocked as a playable character. The top panel shows Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender in an intense firebending stance, surrounded by flames with a fierce expression, captioned 'The boss when you fight him'. The bottom panel shows the same character in a casual, unimpressive martial arts pose with a small flame effect, captioned 'The boss when you unlock him as a playable character'. The humor lies in the satirical exaggeration of how bosses often appear far less powerful once playable.

A meme featuring a screenshot from the animated series 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' showing two central characters: an older man with a white beard and golden headpiece (likely Iroh) standing seriously on the left, and a younger, stocky character with brown hair and a fur-like outfit shouting on the right. Behind them, three other characters are visible in the background, with a forest and rock formation setting. The top text overlay reads 'Idk who needs to hear this but both sides can be at fault,' conveying a message that in conflicts, both parties may share responsibility.

This two-panel edited cartoon meme uses the classic Scooby-Doo unmasking scene format to mock a common Windows operating system frustration. The first panel shows Fred Jones holding the hood of a tied-up masked figure, with an overlaid Windows update notification reading 'Update and shut down (estimate: 2 min)', appearing to be the option users select to turn their computer off after updates. The second panel shows Fred removing the hood to reveal the unmasked villain, with the overlaid notification now reading 'Update and restart (estimate: 2 min)'. The joke highlights the common misleading behavior where users who select 'update and shut down' are instead forced to sit through a restart, trapping them from turning their device off as intended.

This is a two-panel meme using characters from *SpongeBob SquarePants* to joke about the common size distortion of Antarctica on most standard world maps (most famously the Mercator projection). In the top panel, a giant Plankton labeled "Antarctica on a map" looms over a tiny SpongeBob labeled "The other continents", showing how oversized Antarctica appears on most maps. In the bottom panel, the roles are flipped: a giant SpongeBob labeled "Most other continents" holds a tiny Plankton labeled "Antarctica in real life", illustrating that Antarctica is actually much smaller than it appears on maps relative to other continents.
