After a decade-long hiatus, Warner Brothers' brought Scooby-Doo back with a bang in 1998's "Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island!" Three films by the same creative team followed, but after studio interference, their run was limited to four movies. Zombie Island is good! Witch's Ghost is good! Alien Invaders is good! Cyber Chase is there too!

[@DJtheBlack-RibbonedRose]

THANK YOU, I'm not the only one here who remembers that Tim Curry was in more than one Scooby movie. Granted Goblin King isn't nearly as iconic as Witch's Ghost and his role was smaller than Ben Ravencroft, but still, I've enjoyed his work since I was a kid so I was happy to see him make another appearance in the franchise. Goblin King is one of my favorite films in the "What's New" era, especially since Shaggy and Scooby had saved the day while the rest of the gang were the ones in danger.

[@LeopoldLitchenstein]

It's been awhile since I've seen it, but it's probably the best Scooby-Doo movie period. It was nice of them to try and make a full on follow up to it this year for the 50th anniversary of the franchise, but if I had to go with my gut, it likely doesn't hold a candle to it or do it much justice.

[@walterobrien8045]

If you think about it Scrappy is just the basic premise of the show taken to eleven. The whole idea of the Scooby franchise is kids being foolhardy enough for face off against terrifying forces.

I LOVED Zombie Island. It had my favorite type of animation from that era, and every bit of cinematic production felt weighty and relatable. As Mr. Billiam said, it felt like a horror movie with a bit of comedy sprinkled over it. There was so much realism and gravity to it that I'd forget I was watching an animation at times. Thanks to the 2D animation, it still holds up well to modern standards, so much so, in fact, that I was craving the art style and smooth in-betweeners to the point where I actively sought out a source to watch it a few months ago--thank goodness Netflix has some deal with the CW! I only recently discovered the reason why I loved the Hex Girls tracks in their debut movie... Apparently, I've had a voice actor crush on Jennifer Hale long before I played her as SHEPARD in the only non-puzzle shooter I'll ever love. I hear her voice, I cheer. Simplest constant in the universe.

[@DJtheBlack-RibbonedRose]

Re-watching these movies I noticed something interesting (and honestly, a little disheartening). Fred & Daphne seem to be the only ones who are given a relationship that works out well in the end! In Witch's Ghost (which remains my favorite of the Scooby quartet), Velma gets a love interest in Ben but he ends up as another addition to the "Tim Curry Bad Guy" list. I remember liking the idea of Velma getting to explore romance whilst remaining the superior mystery-solver, so I felt bad for her when Ben went evil, because you're right, they DID have cohesive interactions up until that point. But of course I couldn't be upset for long because I was quickly won over by Tim Curry being another fun and creepy villain :). Then in Alien Invaders, I was especially invested in Shaggy's and Scooby's blossoming relationships with Crystal and Amber, which I thought were BEYOND cute, especially since Amber is originally uninterested in Scooby but warms up to him later. As interesting as the twist was, I was really disappointed to learn Crystal and Amber were aliens and thus had to return to their own planet. It's hard enough for the duo to get girlfriends I imagine due to their over-the-top antics and crazy eating habits, so to see them succeed in finding girls who appreciated them for who they were, only to lose them shortly after, was really sad. Plus, the fact that Crystal and Amber were aliens seemed to say that no Earth girls would find Shaggy and Scooby desirable; they'd have to find alien girls to be appreciated, and that sucks. Same with Velma; only a man revealed to have been using her found her attractive. But Fred and Daphne? No no they're fine don't worry about it. So yeah, let it be known that Velma, Shaggy & Scooby all deserve to be just as happy as Fred and Daphne! (Which is probably part of the reason why Mystery Incorporated had Velma be attracted to Shaggy, because the writers knew that they deserved a long-overdue success in the love department).

[@silentsnake31]

I guess depending on which iteration of Scooby-Doo you look at, in the older series (the movies) that focused more on Scooby-Doo, shaggy and scrappy. Shaggy was dating a rockabella chick when he was a race car driver and in the whats new Scooby-Doo, Velma had that love interest in Egypt and that archeologist guy when looking for a crystallized dinosaur. Not to mention she was interested in sam Winchester in that one crossover.

[@DJtheBlack-RibbonedRose]

@@silentsnake31 True, I forgot about Omar, the Egyptian prince that Velma worked with in Where's My Mummy. They made for a cool duo; even more so when the twist was revealed. Don't think I saw the dinosaur one and I KNOW I didn't see the Reluctant Werewolf, I was more into Ghoul School, but yikes did Shaggy's girlfriend have an unfortunate name in that one. But yeah, point is that it often goes back and forth for Velma and Shaggy in the franchise, but with Fred & Daphne it's much more stabilized (for the most part).

[@timothymclean]

You're not wrong, but it always bugs me how romantic relationships are used as a barometer of happiness and accomplishment.

Omg... someone else that hated that Scrappy was the villain in the live action. I remember especially being mad because they left the puppy in the desert to die, just because they found him annoying. I, a child was convinced that was not the gang or Scooby I grew up with.

[@jakek1735]

Yeah I'm not on board with this sudden recent influx of people suddenly claiming that the first live-action Scooby movie was some kind of subversive classic. Just because everyone grew up and now they're cynical asshole adults who like the fact that the movie feels like it actually kinda hates the old cartoons. I'm sorry but if you're making a Scooby Doo movie for kids that can only be appreciated by cynical adults, you've failed at making a Scooby Doo movie for kids. "Oh, but it was written by James Gunn and he's awesome!"... okay, and it was also directed by Raja Gosnell, who sucks. And the crazy part is that a lot of these people seem to also say "the first live-action movie was great but the second one sucked"... the second one was the one that actually DID feel closer to being a real Scooby Doo movie.

[@Karak12357]

I really hope you get to review "A Pup Named Scooby Doo". That and "13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo" were my favorites.

[@AndreNitroX]

But we’re all hoping for a mystery incorporated review

[@Arh1305]

Yes!

[@supermax64]

They used to air 13 ghosts of Scooby Doo leading up to Halloween. They really got you in the mood back then.

[@Chakura]

Same here! Loved pup and 13 ghost!

[@Oceanblue_Art_]

This is basically the same comment I made on Ryan Hollinger's video on these movies, but The Witch's Ghost is what introduced me to Wicca. I grew up under the impression that Wiccans are good people who commune with nature, which is pretty unusual for a kid from a Catholic family.

[@PurrfessorFeline]

I grew up on the original live action, the alien movie, and the Cyber chase, and I completely forgot about this part of my childhood. But looking back on this. This brought back so many happy memories in a hard time. It's nice to have this nostalgia come down and bring back alot of my childhood

[@LaurenceReeves]

Cyber chase was great when I was a kid, it was my brother’s favourite film! It was obviously very popular given all the games on pretty much every console at the time.

[@Limogato]

Mailbag: Billiam, you look like Shaggy from a Netflix live action adaption of Scooby Doo.

Man I remember when my sister told me when I was little I always kept watching Scooby doo Alien movie so much to the point my family had to hide to VHS tape from me... that's how many times I've watched it!

[@Tacom4ster]

"It's Terror Time again" was a cool jam Review The Ghoul School special :p and maybe the Kiss crossover movie please

[@Ratkill9000]

21 years later, I still have that song stuck in my head and I have no regrets.

[@onijester56]

Whenever someone says they hate Scrappy, or that Scrappy Doo was a bad character, my knee-jerk reaction is to look them in the eye and say "Ghoul School". The original cast worked in their normal format, but adding real monsters without the mystery approach meant their expertise would have been forsaken or overlooked. Inversely, Scooby and Shaggy are defined by their cowardice and thus would generally tend to flee at the first sign of something 'spooky'. Scrappy's confrontational demeanor and hero-worship of his uncle Scooby work to force Scooby into situations where he must overcome his fear in order to save someone he truly loves. Scrappy believes that Uncle Scoob can beat any threat, and thus will try to go head-to-head against the sharpest odds confident that Scooby will be there to protect him. And this is most clearly seen in "Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School".

[@KaiserMattTygore927]

Zombie Island was my childhood gateway to darker story-telling, love that movie. I re-watched it again a year or two back and it STILL HELD UP

[@briannawhite9307]

I was 4 when Scooby Doo on Zombie Island came out, and my dad rented it from the grocery store as a new release. I woke up in the middle of the night because I was sick. Then my dad put on Zombie Island for me. Oh lord. I was horrified and had nightmares for weeks 😆. My family still teases me about it.

[@DiegoPrs]

Cyber Chase was also my favorite movie growing up, I found it way too scary, I believe it was because in Brazil things used to arrive later, so I watched it around 2004/5. It was a time where viruses and cyber menaces were largely discussed in media, and since I didn't own a computer, I didn't fully understand tech stuff and the movie seemed scarier than it actually was xD

[@moonkingdomify]

Mailbag: The scene from the KISS crossover where KISS and the gang fly through a rift in the universe on a guitar themed ship that's powered by music in an attempt to save Shaggy and Scooby from dimensional witch who's trying to take the detroit rock from them is pretty interesting.

[@benjaminlaw1819]

Lol, the music in cyber chase when they meet their younger selves is one of my favorite. I like how pop dancy it sounds, I can literally hear it in my head right now. Lowkey, I think it might have had an influence on my taste in dance/electronic taste in music as an adult😅

[@ChrisDixon__]

Thank you for this Scooby Doo series, perfect for the spooky season. Some of the VHS/DVD solo movies are gems. Can't wait for your _Mystery Incorporated_ episode, one of my top favorite Scooby-Doo shows; I love the different direction/tone it had.

[@psycologo121]

As a kid I loved the "It's Terror Time Again" song. Of course kids this days don't know the frustration of having to wait for Cartoon Network to play the movie to hear the song. Now you can just hear it on KZbin when ever you want.

[@BugsyFoga]

Glad I'm not the only one who loved Scrappy as a kid and hated fact that he was villain in the 2002 movie , you've earned my respect Billiam. 😁

[@jbbelenkokoro2673]

Billiam I don’t hate Scrappy like most people, I really like him as a character. I feel that he needs a comeback that will help people change their opinions of him. Hopefully in the next Direct to Video film.

[@Nightman221k]

I always enjoyed the way Scrappy added a twist in the series formula. Him being a reckless little guy was a fun addition to the group’s dynamic. Plus I liked that he thought Scooby was a brave role model when Scooby is always terrified. I hated that the writers of the live action movie did that to Scrappy. Just cause they disliked him doesn’t mean every fan feels the same way.

[@kevinmonzel]

I liked Scrappy, he was the "let me at em" non-coward contrast we needed to round out the cast.

[@Jasonwolf1495]

So someone brought this to my attention that cyberchase's monster is kind of y2k as a scooby monster. It's kinda brilliant because for a lot of people this was the most terrifying thing ever. I put it at number 2 on my list most of the time, but knowing this now it's my number 1.

[@randieboes3350]

"nearly 60 years after fry becomes his own grandpa" Is that a futurama reference?

I actually love the Cyber Chase movie, it's cool to see the classic versions with the movie versions, also virtual worlds, I flipping love it.

Me too. Seeing the Mondern gang interact with their classic counterparts was the highlight of the film for me.

[@niconee4569]

Bro those scooby doo gummies and Graham crackers were the bomb when I was a kid

[@zgamer200]

Billiam, I trusted you. How am I supposed to watch any of your content in good faith now when I know you LIKE Scrappy-Doo?

Witch's ghost is still my favourite scooby doo movie and one of my favourite animated films period. Thorn was hot as hell when I was a kid too.

[@HarmonicJinx]

I've got these movies on VHS, in relatively new condition. My favorite by far zombie island. The vibe given off in that movie as a kid really stuck with me! A movie you can watch anytime, any place!

[@platypusbunneh327]

Huge nostalgic flashbacks. The Witch's Ghost was also my favorite out of the lineup. This is an absolutely awesome video, good job!!

[@DanielSmith-mp4le]

Mailbag I love that part in the episode with the Black Knight where they said that shaggy was the best gymnast they had at school that actually explains how Shaggy was always able to be very athletic and fit and jump and flip and run all over the place and also had a high carb diet since he was constantly training for gymnastics go figure.

[@e_z__r_a]

I really loved seeing Scooby-Doo in Supernatural, they nailed the animated versions of the Supernatural cast. I suggest any fan of either to go watch it!

[@roxassora2706]

I thought it was too good to be true (when I first heard of it). But it was actually really good

[@rushmaverick1923]

Just recently I started binge-watching all the old episodes of Johnny Bravo, including the one from the first season where Scooby and the Gang did a crossover. And I realized they took certain things from that episode and put it in to That Scoobynatural special. Like how Johnny and Dean were both trying to get with Daphne who only had eyes for Fred, and how Velma had a thing for Sam like she did with Johnny. She always did have a thing for guys with broad shoulders. One thing I'm surprised about was their reaction when they saw that brutally murdered corpse for the first time. I don't know why but I was expecting more of a reaction from them like that "Scooby-Doo Murder Files" cutaway gag parody of them from Family Guy. "You're right, Scooby. We're dealing with one sick son of a bitch."

[@agr0nianTV]

It was pretty solid

[@EmpressCosplay]

[@adamsanders2270]

Your comment about Americana finally put to words why I love the first 3 movies so much more than the rest that follow. The setting and the atmosphere truly are just as important if not more essential to the film than the mystery. I cannot imagine any of those films being in a more perfect setting. Ever since I saw the Witches Ghost I have wanted to go to New England during the fall to experience the leaves. It is atmospheric and nostalgic in a way that none of the other films have been able to grab me. Likely an unpopular opinion, but I get a similar vibe from Boo Brothers and while I recognize the lack of quality, I think it captures a similar atmosphere to me and it’s one reason why I can’t help but hold those 4 films as my favorites in the Scooby doo genre.

One of my favorite memories of Scooby Doo from my childhood: Halloween '98, I went trick-or-treating with my cousin in his neighborhood, wearing a Scooby costume my parents bought me from a catalogue (one that was so comfortable I wore it as pajamas for a few years), and when I came home exhausted and proud of my haul, I got to watch the premiere of "Zombie Island" on TV. For the record, my parents HATE Scooby Doo.
