Exactly, Jacob. Disney began phasing it out in the 80s because they felt it was outdated, which is why you don't hear it at all in The Black Cauldon (1985) or Oliver and Company (1988), both of which use more modern and realistic thunder and lightning effects, yet it's unusual how they used the Castle Thunder variations on The Great Mouse Detective (1986), maybe because of the lower budget or because the producer Burny Mattinson was a fan of the classic Disney sound effects (hence them also appearing in Mickey's Christmas Carol (1983).) I understand this, but for some reason Scooby-Doo doesn't feel right with the newer and realistic thunder effects. Maybe they should do like what WikiExpertXV said and have the Castle Thunder effects play softer underneath the realistic louder thunder and lightning sound effects; after all, that's what happened in Scooby-Doo and the Legend of the Vampire (2003) on the DVD version...
