As a 70's child Scooby Doo was part of my saturday morning cartoon ritual. I can't bring myself to even hate watch Velma. So if anyone has taken one for the team and seen it please do fill us in.

Not even that! Velma is some ambiguous brown-skinned creature (Indian? Latino? Doon't knoo!), Daphne seems...Asian(?), Shaggy is now black and Fred is kept as a white guy to be the audience avatar who needs to learn all the lessons. Oh, and Fred is apparently a massive douchebag.
So in reality they just took the names.
Velma is voiced, written, and directed by Mindy Kailing (no, I don't care to check if that's spelled correctly) and is Indian (dot, not feather). Daphne is Chinese but dies her hair. Also they're both lesbian/bi and that shows up in the trailer.
