This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Ogosmith
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This is right up there with 13 Ghosts...only better.13 Ghosts was an 80s update that turned the mystery into adventure stories and it did work very well.What's New, Scooby-Doo? was an updated version that was OK...but focused too much on being updated and kid friendly to the point where it lost some Scooby Fans.Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get a Clue! seemed to forget what Scooby Doo was all about, much like Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! forgets that Scooby has a certain feel behind it.Mystery Incorporated, however is just brilliant.It is updated enough where it works for today's time. It is light hearted enough for children to enjoy. It is spooky and dark enough for adults and...plus...the mega cherry...it is retro enough to not only reference the old Scooby Doo shows, but also reference the era that they all originally aired.And, just to add more to it...it even references the animated movies.It does it all with episodes that work as stand alone plots and all fit into an actual series wide chronology with an even bigger mystery to top it all off.It is the best done Scooby reboot to date and one that successfully works for both a new generation of viewers and the old die hard Scooby Doo fans.A must watch.

Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated (SDMI) is everything I wanted out of the Scooby- Doo franchise. I grew up watching every animated and live-action incarnation of the Scooby gang's adventures. They were very enjoyable, but especially as I became older, I gravitated towards the more action and plot oriented Scooby-Doo releases (Reluctant Werewolf, Witch's Ghost, Cyber Chase, and Alien Invaders were staples). Legend of the Phantosaur caught me by surprise on Cartoon Network one day, reeling me back in from the relative apathy I'd developed regarding my old favorite. It felt like a fresher, slightly more serious take on the typical plot. I soon after discovered SDMI and was blown away by the shift in tone. It takes itself more seriously, with a larger overarching plot that leads to an ending with massive implications for the gang's universe. SDMI is chiefly an alternate version of the gang's overall story, so each plot element borrowed from past incarnations is taken with a grain of salt and a dose of parody. I'm tempted to label it as "darker", but aside from an often visibly "darker" color palette and the fact that each mystery contributes to plot continuity, SDMI seems no darker than the original 60s cartoon (of which I distinctly remember Scooby almost getting gruesomely sawed in half, among other incidents). What this version of Scooby-Doo has is a lot of depth: the overarching mystery thickens with each episode and the characters gain a depth and breadth of characterization I've never before seen. In a somewhat refreshing interpretation of Fred and Velma, Fred is heavily Autistic-coded (assigned similar characteristics as those on the Autism spectrum) and Velma queer-coded (assigned similar characteristics as those in the LGBTQ community). While it would have been nice to have it stated outright, it's typical of the entertainment industry to leave it up to "viewer interpretation". Issues explored throughout include toxic masculinity and defining the concept of family. The seriousness that comes with these topics is easily balanced out with moments of humorous absurdity, because while the show addresses a lot of heavy issues, it can't stray from its core of laughs and fun times. I enjoyed it very much, and enthusiastically recommend it to fans of Disney's Gravity Falls, which shares mystery solving youth and supernatural goings-on centered around a particular town. SDMI immediately claimed the number one spot in my heart for Scooby-Doo related media. Once I get around to it I'm totally purchasing the box set. I'm giving it 9 out of 10 stars because I noticed a few reoccurring animation mistakes in an otherwise pretty solidly animated show, and because despite how much I love SDMI, perfect scores are nigh impossible.

This is my first animated series (from Cartoon Network) that I finished all episodes of. I always loved Scooby Doo: Where are you? as a child but after that none of the spin-offs clicked me (Except that Zombie Island movie). However all changed this series.Not only this series develops round & dynamic personalities of "The gang" but introduces a whole new "series story arc" (Like a continuation of a whole bigger mysteries). Plus the romance and bonding together of the gang too Characters are seen interacting with others and these "others" are recurring characters for both seasons. Along with some other Hanna- Barbera retro cartoon characters cameo as well."Monsters" are actually well done and although sometimes you know who it is (especially for first season), many a times it was surprising.The series also has references to old Scooby Doo: Where are you and characters' one liners (esp. Scooby & Shaggy) are really funnyOverall, this is an animated series done right. Since this is Cartoon Network, I can see why they kept it "not too mysterious & dark" for kids. However in my opinion, only people 13+ will appreciate the production. Nevertheless old Scooby Doo fans should give this a try, I did and I loved every clue of it...

Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated is a show that i really recommend that every body avoids. I have watched all 52 episodes, and I must say this is a disgrace to the Scooby-Doo series, the dog, and Hanna Barbra. First off, I think i should talk about the only good things in the show. The Fantastic graphics. This show graphics are on par of a really good TV made cartoon movie. The Gang Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby have never looked their best until this show. Even though, compared to their other images that look a bit more human like on the older shows and movies. This show just has a better way of showing more emotion, color, and expression. And it just looks incredibly gorgeous. The music also deserves some special praise. The orchestra matches every scene in the cartoon. But even with knock-out graphics, and a haunting orchestra. This is all over weighed by the show's story characters, characteristics, theme, and Ending. The show's story is beyond laughable. First off the show's story has a mature theme meant for late teens involving one of the most well known kid and adult cartoons, Scooby-Doo. It's that funny. The story is about the gang being manipulated by an evil alien entity wanting to rule the universe kill puppies and Et cetera. For several thousand years this entity has manipulated and destroyed friendships of mystery solving gangs to be set free. Scooby-Doo is a cartoon that is never meant to have a serious story. And if this show was for the new generation, then there not going to get much out of it, because to get the most out of the show, you would have to watch all the old scooby doo cartoons. and I mean all of them. Including the movies. One of the noticeable differences in the show, is that Fred and Daphne Finally date, and try to get engaged. W.T.M.F.K. ( Way to much for kids.) Even Velma and shaggy went out, and it failed hardcore. Scooby even got a girlfriend. At the end of the show the gang destroyed the evil entity and created a different time line of pure peace with no mysteries. The Gang was devastated, until they got a letter from a college full of mysteries. They quickly decided to leave their families. Scooby even left his girlfriend Nova. Let's hope that dog finds a nice golden retriever. This really is a terrible cartoon. I can't stress this enough. I just want to mention this to parents, that Dahpne in three episodes wears a sexy night gown, a sexy purple bikini, and as if you could guess, a sexy heavy metal rock band outfit, with the world's smallest mini skirt. Yeah, that's right. I give this piece of crap a 2.8/10. Whoever created this show should be ashamed.
