Süßes oder Saures Scooby-Doo!

My daughter and I recently enjoyed Trick-or-Treat Scooby-Doo (2022) on Max. The plot revolves around Mystery Inc. Taking a vacation and slowing down their case solving activities since their arch-nemesis has been arrested, and business is quiet. However, their trip is disrupted by some mysterious ghouls, leading them to consider seeking help from their former foe to uncover the truth.

Directed by Audie Harrison (Uncle Grandpa), the film features the voices of Frank Welker (Mortal Kombat), Grey Griffin (Bumblebee), Matthew Lillard (Scream) and Anthony Carrigan (Gotham).

The storyline of this movie proves to be enjoyable and entertaining as it unfolds. The ghostly elements are well-executed, and the animation style maintains a nostalgic charm. While the inclusion of a Velma love story may not have been necessary, it doesn't significantly detract from the overall experience. The conclusion may be somewhat predictable, but it remains satisfying.

In summary, Trick-or-Treat Scooby-Doo may not be outstanding, but it's a fun addition to the Scooby-Doo universe. I would rate this a 6/10 and recommend seeing it once.

My kids and I watch Scooby Doo most weekends. Yesterday we rewatched the first Zombie Island which is my favorite! This week we also watched Happy Halloween Scooby Doo, the Sword and the Scoob to name a few.

This movie was just not entertaining. We had to force ourselves to keep watching. I don't normally have to do that for my 5 year old. The storyline reminds me of the Be Cool, Scooby Doo Tv show. They're using the old animation style and had a lot of call backs to old villains which may be its only positives. The movie was just trying to be too meta, made fun of it's own story model way farther than it needed to, and felt like it was just pushing an agenda that didn't feel natural. In fact, I felt like they betrayed Velma's character to not be okay with being herself.

Not sure who they were targeting with this one. Boring tale for kids and adults. I would love to see them go back to the writing from the early 2000s. Zombie Island and the Witch's Ghost were so good. But I also really enjoyed Happy Halloween from 2020 so it's not like good writing can't be found.

I am always to see new Scooby Doo movies. Bit I couldn't follow the plot. However, it was your usually funny Scooby movie. My favorite movies of course are Zombie Island, Witches Ghost & the one with Kiss. I do wish they would update the look of the characters like they did on the Mystery Inc.

I am glad they keep reinventing the characters and they are grown as a Scooby doo fan I want new movies to keep coming and for the storylines to keep growing & more movies focused on the supernatural like zombie island & witches ghost. Keep these new movies coming and I will keep tuning in for these storylines.

First off, the character of Coco Diablo is insufferable. She's an annoying, unfunny, uninteresting character. Velma's infatuation with her is annoying and the way she acts in the presence of Coco is oddly out of character considering Velma's usually outgoing and nerdy personality. The ending of the movie devolves into literal nonsense. Most of the other side characters are over the top and verge on annoying, and the movie makes jokes at its own expense several times. And it seems ever since Deadpool, movies and shows think it's funny to have a character break the fourth wall and speak to the audience. They don't go quite that far but Scooby Doo makes a remark to one of the villains about the show being named after him. It's out of nowhere and makes little sense. But for the good side of things, the movie revisits multiple classic golden and silver era Scooby villains, both in and out of their disguises. It's cool to see the old villains getting screen time in new projects, even though they were reduced to bit parts. The new villains (with the exception of Coco) are decent characters. I liked the idea of a group of ghosts that were the complete opposite of Mystery Inc. The idea of the Scooby Gang going up against evil versions of their selves is fantastic, but not quite explored as much as it could've been. The redesign to the Mystery Machine is an odd choice but it keeps things fresh. It's almost an homage to the Munsters' Koach. And I love the subtle Easter eggs hidden throughout the movie. Like in Trevor's shop, you see Freddy Krueger's striped sweater. It's a middle of the road movie. Some good laughable moments, some terrible unfunny Gen-Z humor. As a Scooby Doo movie, it serves its purpose, although being mildly disappointing.

The gang solves the case of the Cat Man. They discover that many of their cases are related. The villains' costumes are all made by Coco Diablo. She tries to recruit someone to take out the gang, but they catch her in the act. Velma has a big crush on Coco. With Coco locked up, there just isn't any more big cases.

The big news in this one is Velma's sexual preferences. I'm racking my brain trying to remember any of her previous crushes in earlier iterations. It's not a big deal to me. Maybe it's a big deal for others. More than anything, I don't particularly like Coco. I would have liked a nicer partner for Velma whether male or female. I hope she's not a new constant contributor. This movie's comedy is broader than most Scooby adventures. It's definitely trying for something wackier and sillier. I do like it to some extent. I'm less fond of Coco and her sexual preference has nothing to do with it.
