Scooby-Doo! and the Curse of the 13th Ghost

Firstly, there is so many continuity problems starting with claiming 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo started it all which it was defiantly was not the first incarnation, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You, and a few more after that leading up ti The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo. Secondly, Velma acts like she has never faced a real ghost, Scooby-Doo and the Witches Ghost. I could have looked past those continuity inconsistency due to the move being so hilarious, but what me go NO, NO, NO, YOU CAN'T DO THAT! was:

Thirdly, Velma claims the ghost from The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo where hallucinations brought upon from being in the Himalayan Mountains. the show says the ghost where real the this movie comes along and slaps, no, punches to pulp. the fans that this movie should have been made for proving that Warner Bothers would rather beat to within an inch of there lives, and run away before they get caught because clearly do not care about the, the fan base.

If this movie is any indication the next movie, Scooby-Doo Return to Zombie Island, will go out of it's way to claim that the monster don't exist when the movie that it will be a sequel to, Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, went out it's way to prove the monsters where real on the island.

Bottom Line, if you are a fan of Schooby-Doo, stay far away from this and contact Warner Brothers, if their is a way, that they need to back to the drawing board and give us a proper conclusion to the 13 Ghost's of Scooby-Doo because will not except this farce of a 2 month early April Fools joke as cannon.

I've seen this a few day's ago and I still have not gotten over the ending, no movie has ever done that to me before, so you know that this movie is all kinds of wrong.

Finally, the Daphne we deserve, and a wrap up to a series that maintains the integrity of the team, and also satisfies the narrative. Those who gave this low ratings are nuts.

Belated sequel to the short-lived TV show The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo (1985), made for the franchise's fiftieth anniversary. That show, although not hugely popular at the time (it was cancelled early), later acquired a cult following as an early example of Scooby-Doo encountering the genuine supernatural. No sequel so long afterwards was going to please everybody, and when it was announced fan reactions ranged from 'OMG! I've waited so long for this!' to 'I won't hold my breath for this to be decent, let alone good'.

The 13 Ghosts TV show focused on Daphne, Shaggy, and Scooby (no Fred or Velma), assisted by Scrappy (Scooby's nephew), Flim-Flam (a young con artist), and a warlock named Vincent Van Ghoul (voiced by the legendary Vincent Price), and the first thing most people wanted to know was whether this would do the same. It doesn't. Fred, Velma, Daphne, Shaggy, and Scooby ALL feature - plus Vincent Van Ghoul and Flim-Flam, but no Scrappy. The second thing people wanted to know was whether the ghosts would again be real - I won't spoil that one.

The first half of the movie is very good. It quickly recaps the original show, reintroduces Vincent (now voiced by the excellent Maurice LaMarche) and has some very funny moments (not least Shaggy and Scooby's response when they realise they've got to go back and capture the 13th ghost that slipped through their grasp last time). There are also a whole load of visual nods to Scooby's adventures back to Scooby-Doo, Where Are You in 1969. But by the half-way point the initial quick-fire pace starts to ease off, with fewer callbacks to the original. It's not that it's bad from then on, but it feels less of a continuation and more like its own thing. The conclusion (again, I won't spoil) has fans divided, with some loving it, and some not so much.

At the end of the day it's as wacky as you'd expect. The regular voice cast (Frank Welker, Grey DeLisle, Matthew Lillard, and Kate Micucci) are on top form. The character interplay is as strong as ever, and there are some laugh-out-loud moments. It's not quite what I'd hoped it would be, but it's still enjoyable. 7/10.

Who's seriously giving this anywhere near a ONE out of ten? LOL pathetic.

Anyway, thanks to the always-winning combo of the modern day Scooby-Doo animation style + quality, the incredible (possibly franchise greatest) voice acting cast, and the infinitely enjoyable fourth wall-breaking comedy writing, this very easily ends up being yet another top quality WB Animation Scooby film.

I just loved this movie, really. I remember myself back when I was like 8 years old and I was watching the 13 ghosts of scooby doo, God I was crazy about this gang, it was something different. When I watched that movie I felt nostalgic, that van ghoul and flim flam comeback was adorable. The only thing that's bothering me is the absence of scooby's nephew and Fred's cheerleading thing, otherwise, I like it very much.
