Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Fresh and Exciting
Best movie of this year hands down!
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
No, seriously, I really think that a Scooby-Doo movie going after a musical genre is a really good change of pace. Sure, it may not be as good as Zombie Island, and it may not live up as a Halloween musical classic the same way The Nightmare Before Christmas did, but it's still not bad for a beginner. The Halloween creatures are a big plus; they're absolutely creepy. Some of the musical numbers might need a little work, but at least they're something that you can't walk out on. But, man! Oh, man! I can never get over that ending! I'm not gonna tell you though; it'll just spoil the surprise. The bottom line: it's a delight for the whole family, especially if you're a Scooby-Doo fan.
You gotta love him! 40 years of silly antics and still quite popular with the kiddies.The old TV show was annoyingly repetitive. Scooby and the gang get involved with a phony ghoul of some kind and Velma and Fred solve the case, while Scooby and Shaggy get to be live bait.Then came the live action movies. They tried but failed to be anything more than actors overshadowed by too many visual effects and stories that much like the old TV show were tedium incarnate.The retooling of the old TV show was an improvement. What's New Scooby-Doo was bold enough to play with conventions and actual decent animation. But soon they began to be repetitive too.Here's another retooling. The monsters are real! There's no unmasking and Fred, Daphne and especially Velma are kept off screen for much of the running time. Scoob and Shag has to save the day and they do it without being doped up by Scooby snacks.It's pretty amazing how many celebrities were involved in this. For instance Lauren Bacall of all people. Jay Leno (actually funny here) as a pumpkin. Is this a stab at the size of his head? Hmmm... Tim Curry, as close as a cartoon in live person as you can get and Jim Belushi and his sidekick from According to Jim.The animation assisted by lots of CGI makes you head hurt but the voice talent elevate this from being a total dud. Wayne Knight as a megalomaniac? Predictable? You bet and it still make you chuckle of appreciation.Looking forward to what's next? No. But I can't help but watching. Something where you don't have to think will definitely always be on my to do list a couple of times each year.
Zoinks! Like, ruh roh, Raggy, don't rook now, but just when you were about to ask "where are you" there's a reaky new Scooby Doo movie available on rideo. Yeah, reaky. Gulp. And in this one, the whacked out warlock isn't just a guy wearing a mask. Heh heh heh. Like, no way man, but this wunnerful creepy old time animation is completely on the mark and ten times as fun as th-th-th-the rive action Scooby Doo movies. Like,trust me, old friend, old buddy, old pal, there are even a bunch of scary moments that will make you rump off your chair. Boing! There is also a runch of musical numbers. I especially liked the one that went romething like "Woararoarawoararoarawoar." Yikes! The kids will love the Goblin King, and the adults will laugh at the inside rokes: "Oh no! Velma's fried!" or "Now that is something you just do not do to a guy's van." Why do I get the feeling this one should have been on the big screen? Way to go old Scooby Dooby movie makers. You should totally rent Scooby Dooooby Dooooo and the Goblin King: jeepers, maybe there's food inside the box.
I had mixed feelings on this one 1) Having Jim Belushi, Jay Leno, Wayne Knight, Lauren Bacall, Wallace Shawn and "witches ghost" return of Tim Curry was a plus. Oh to hear Tim's laugh!!!! 2) The fairies, pumpkin, and broom picked up things when the story was dragging. 3) The story was mostly Shaggy and Scooby who couldn't carry it alone. 4) The songs were mostly forgettable. 5) the attempt to return to old style Scooby Doo was a plus 6) The story didn't really care to follow the plot and became a series of unconnected scenes. The end seemed rushed 7) The lack of Velma was deafening. 8) Daphne getting wet was unforgivable :-) At the end of the day, it was fun to watch but forgettable after a few days.
