Scooby Doo Movie - Nostalgia Critic

[@kristofgriffin384]

Fun Fact! The actor who played Shaggy in this movie and the sequel would later on voice Shaggy in Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. Now he has become the official voice actor of the character, replacing Casey Kasem.

[@masonpelzer8052]

Cool

[@girlywolfpup1588]

+Mason Pelzer he plays the role well.

[@EngCenturion]

Well in my opinion he was the only good actor in the movie aside from Rowan Atkinson and Linda Cardenllini

[@logandh2]

Probably because he's the only one who actually played his character properly.

[@loganbuckeye11]

And before that he was one of the men in the mask in the movie Scream

Apparently Tim Curry was originally going to be the island host. But when he heard that Scrappy-Doo was in the film, he bailed out... Tim Curry is a huge Scooby-Doo fan

I don't blame him for hoping off this band wagon when he did, animated scrappy doo was a pain in the butt, I don't know why they thought making him live action would do him or the Scooby Doo franchise any justice! 🤦‍♀️

[@KPater-mf4je]

It seems kinda obvious now that it was meant to be a parody -- I'm getting strong "Very Brady Movie" vibes from this, and as an outright parody this could have been a cool movie -- but when it came out, it was unfortunately marketed as a movie for kids. I was a kid at the time and I didn't know it was meant to be a parody. The adult asides flew over my head and I was just plain confused (notwithstanding, there was a /lot/ of hype for this film. My old local Barnes and Noble actually promoted this movie over LOTR). They should have marketed it as a parody geared towards young adults like the Very Brady Movie, and stuck with their original parody ideas. Then again, the Brady Bunch was easier to parody, in my opinion, because it was incredibly cheesy; Scooby Doo was a cute kid's show, though.

[@LeopoldLitchenstein]

They actually cut a few drug jokes out of the DVD release of the sequel. I can even tell where they would have made a steroid joke in the scene where Shaggy gets CGI buffed up.

It seems a lot of people, especially in the comments, don't realize it, but this was actually the end of Nostalgia Critic for a long time. This review first aired in 2012 and was, as it said at the end of the video... the end. He was gone for a very long time, with Scooby Doo being his last review, however, he eventually made his triumphant return, this time, with a studio and new castmates, making Nostalgia Critic what it is today. And I, for one, couldn't be happier. Not only that they returned to making videos, but also that, when they hit a wall, so to speak, they didn't force it. They took the hiatus they needed, and came back when they were ready, to a fanbase who still loves them.

[@Tentegen]

AJMC82 thanks! I knew he stopped to do his own thing but it didn't pan out so well. but I think now days he did a fine balance of what he WANTED to do and his original Nostalgia Critic thing. but I didn't know the rest of the story.

FUN FACT: When they started filming, the movie was going to be PG-13 and they were going to confirm That Shaggy was a stoner and Velma was a lesbian (she was even going to have a date scene with Daphne), But things changed relatively early on and they edited it into a more kid friendly movie. And just as an example Of how they edited it The 2 years later seen where smoke is coming out the mystery van, was going to cut it to Shaggy smoking.

He was probably the most annoying early on from 1979 - 1982, but in & after 1983 or so, he was slowly maturing. Really, Scrappy from 1983 - 1989 isn't as high-energy as he was earlier, he even was going into his courage skit in one episode, but then he had second thoughts and ran off.

Ricky Williams That’s true, but I’m talking about the Hannah Barbara ghosts. There was the movie where Shaggy was the next Werewolf for Dracula’s race, because the original Werewolf was on vacation (I know it sounds stupid, but it exists), there was Ghoul School where Shaggy, Scooby and Scrappy were camp councilors for a bunch of monsters, and the 13 ghosts of Scooby Doo, where this monster guy had two annoying ghost henchmen. Plus, there’s all of the crossovers that Scooby and Shaggy were in, and I’m pretty sure that they met both Casper the Friendly Ghost and Harry Scary.

[@Fallingwithstyle1995]

I've always thought this was a perfect last episode of the original NC. It starts to be a lot more contemplative like the second wave of reviews. Not only does it say it's an unfunny, bland movie, it addresses WHY it's such a poor reflection of the franchise and how it didn't work in the past, doesn't work now, and never will work in the future. This review was arguably the most complete and utter annihilation of a movie Nostalgia Critic had put out yet, while also focusing on the character's own needs to contemplate the state of his role in life, thus ushering in his new approach to analyzing film. I've always loved the Nostalgia Critic, but this is when he became the voice of reason he is today! And it's all in this review for, of all films, the SCOOBY DOO MOVIE! Hats off to Doug, and I'm so glad the review has continued to go on!

[@episkopestudios]

Amen.

[@dustywaynemusic6297]

Doesn't have to be the last, just one of the first self-reflective ones. The Fury Road episode was similar

Right exactly- it ushered in all the self-reflective reviews. A.I., The Lorax, Christmas with the Kranks- just to name a few- those were all amazing. I'm so glad they are continuing! It's a great way to end the original run of the NC though.

@TheRichROom Yeah, that's something which makes me feel as if when Scooby Doo got popular again in the 90s they just started writing bad fan fiction for Scooby Doo and called it a day. This doesn't only apply to this movie; the _Blair Witch Project crossover_ (yes, it exists...) is off the charts.

[@shadowspider9]

Here's the thing about the Scooby Doo, movie. You can't view it as an adaptation. The movie is, from beginning to end, a parody. It makes fun of every cliche and trope that fans have made fun of about the show for the last 40 years. From the jokes about Shaggy being a pot-head, to Daphne being a damsel in distress, to the hate for Scrappy-Doo. The entire movie is one long Scooby-Doo parody.

[@quantumblur_3145]

Parody is supposed to display a thorough understanding of the source material- which making the monsters supernatural clearly isn't

One problem I have with this review. Doug says that there was no supernatural elements in the original show. True, but if you look at many of the movies, they do include supernatural elements. Why is this movie being torn apart because IT has supernatural elements? Also, don't give me a crap response about how Doug was talking about the old series. He should have known about some of the movies at least. Like, Zombie Island, for example.

[@nohandlesplease]

I think it was because it was one of MANY problems. It alone probably wouldn't sink it.

[@Nightman221k]

Scooby Doo on Zombie Island was so much better than this and even did the group breaking up and reforming in a way that felt truer to the group's friendship. This was a pile of crap.

don't get me wrong, Zombie Island is a million times better than this. I just didn't know why Doug picked that part of this movie apart.

There are a few minor scenes that did get a chuckle out of me such as when Scooby finds the bag he thinks is the hamburgers he ordered and he looks up to the sky and says “Rank Rou” and when Shaggy goes on his monologue on haunted castles and Scooby acts out each of Shaggy’s pointers. The latter is probably the closet to the film being tone with the original cartoons. And it’s a neat reference to the very first episode of the original series “What a Night for a Knight”.

Phreaker1997 In my opinion, it's one of the best anime of all time. The first 8 or so episodes are a little slow, but it gets really good. It also handles time travel in a unique way, which is very refreshing to see. It you want to watch it, it's on Hulu. Also, I believe Funimation has it both subbed and dubbed on KZbin (for free), but it's age restricted. The only bad things in it really are a little bit of blood, some inappropriate language, and some nudity. It's good though, so if you have a spare few hours, I would reccomend binging it.
