Re: Are Scooby Doo and Indiana Jones the same character.
No.
Indy is an incompetent bungler.
Think about it.
He goes to get the Headpiece but blows it by letting Toth get his impression AND he burns down Marions Bar.
Fail.
Goes to find the Map room. Finds it, but then lets the Nazis get the ark anyway.
Fail.
Signs up with the Ship Captain but gets caught again.
Fail.
Gains the upper hand again. Could have destroyed the Ark but caved for a woman.
Fail.
God saves the day in Raiders not Indy.
If he'd have just stayed out of it all together, nothing would have changed.
Toth would have gotten the Headpiece, found the Well of the Souls, taken the Ark to the Island, opened it and melted anyway.
Same end result.
So why is Indy a Hero?
Scoob on the other hand is integral to the solving of endless numbers of mysteries.
Scooby-Doo > Indiana Jones.

Re: Are Scooby Doo and Indiana Jones the same character.
Nah, I'd say if anything Indy and Ace Ventura are the ame character:
1. Both open with a Third Act.
2. Indy Quests for lost artifacts, Ace quests for lost animals.
3. Indy uses the head piece to the Staff of Ra to locate the Ark, Ace uses a rare cut amber stone from a 1984 AFC Championship Ring to locate Snowflake.
4. Indy constantly thwarts the attempts of Nazis, Ace constantly thwarts the attempts of Loohoo--sehers.
5. Indy's main adversary is a more evil archaeologist. Ace's main adversary is a more evil detective.
6. Both have tall, iconic headgear.
7. Both are masters of disguise.
8. Both have a monkey as a confidant (same kind of monkey?).
9. Indy gets a bullet in the arm while driving in a chase scene, Ace catches one in his teeth.
10. In the end, Indy and Ace both walk home without the quested item, but get to keep their female partner.
Marion Ravenwood=Melissa Robinson (Courtney Cox)
Sallah=Emilio (Tone Lõc)
Imam=Woodstock (geek with tow pair of glasses that tracks greenpeace (or something))
Dr. Rene Belloq=Lt. Lois Einhorn
Also, Both Ace and Indy must traverse an expanse of water on the final leg of their journey to complete their quests. Ace in a raft, Indy in/on a sub.
Upon the discovery of each sought-after prize, each is in proximity of what at first appears to be a beautiful woman, but is then revealed to be a hideous vision, abhorrent to the natural world as we know it.
Oh, and micdavis, your summation was awesome.

Well, they could be the same person. I know I've never seen them in the same room together. Not blip & his puppeteer, I mean Scooby Doo & Indiana Jones.

"To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction."
Funny, while speaking to a filmmaker (an Oscar-winning one, no less) 'bout MacGuffins, we strayed on to this topic, too; and he agreed with me 'bout what I just said. But, hey, it's just opinion, I guess... and I trust his.
