Don't know how I missed the trailer and don't see a thread.
Jesus my interest was nuked, looks like a parody of Zombie Island.

Looks good
Nothing will ever top Mystery Incorporated as top tier Scooby Doo, though

This looks like a throwaway Direct to DVD movie like Monster of Mexico and Where's My Mummy.

It's okay, but it seems like a silly soft remake of sort of the original, which I really liked for it's more darker tone, so not sure if I will be that fond of this.
Yeah, this doesn't look any different than the other 5 dozen DTV films & specials they cranked out over the years. Really misses what made the original Zombie Island resonate so much.
I've read the opposite that it revived the franchise after people were tired of the formula.
The fact the Witch''s Ghost came right after with a similar tone must mean it was pretty successful.
That would be weird since Scooby Doo had no new content for years when this came out, and afterwards this directly led to 3 more DTV films, the live action films, and the new tv shows
Looks pretty weak compared to the original.
Glad to see this posted. This tune has staying power.
They kept it for the most part with Witches Ghost, edged off it with Alien Invaders and Cyber Chase, then abandoned it entirely.
Original Zombie Island movie fucked me up when they literally ripped a man's head off trying to unmask.
That movie was grim as fuck!

Witch's Ghost kept it mostly I think. The alien and cyberspace ones less but still more serious in tone than most of the stuff in the franchise. The first live action movie also cribbed A LOT from Zombie Island.
What's New Scooby Doo abandoned it but Mystery Incorporated definitely skewed closer to it
Wow, I also forgot how good this looked. Loved it at the time. Shame they can't match this.

Yeah 13 Ghost actually looked like it was higher effort especially for the 50th anniversary.
If Zombie Island is going to be so watered down i'd rather have gotten a Pup Named Scooby Doo tribute or even Mystery Incorporated.
Man I really miss the older artstyles compared to these movies

Man my interest in Scooby-Doo basically began and ended with the original and the Witch's Ghost.

Give Mystery Incorporated a shot, one of my favorite cartoons of all time and I was watching as an adult.
You should give mystery incorporated a watch. It is a awesome Scooby show that has a really cool overreaching story that gets similar to those movies in tone.
I remembered this movie being so fucking rad. I rewatched it acouple years back, and it was still just a fun goofy-if-genuinely-creepy funhouse movie. The zombie part is done so sincerely.
The series was not subtle about Velma's relationship with Marcy.
It's been years since I watched this, I forgot the zombies weren't actually trying to harm them
Just bought the original on DVD thanks to this thread posting the music video from the first movie. So good.
Watch Mysteries Incorporated and then drop off the series again.
I've seen parts of it but it seemed way too high school-y. I assume that's not a big part of it?
MY FAVORITE SCOOBY DOO MOVIE EVER. I'm so glad they're going back.
The song is everything. You sir, have good taste.

I prefer the Ghost is here, but both are very much stuck in my head since childhood.
Mystery Incorporated was an amazing show. So much better than it had any right to be.
The fact that they followed up that genius with the garbage that was Be Cool, Scooby Doo is one of the greater sins of mankind

It has that in there but isn't what its about.
The series is actually pretty serious with the overarching mystery.
People actually die In it
