"Scooby Doo: the Sword and the Scoob" movie is out

My problem is with the modern Velma-fication of the show. Where the episodes start with Velma already knowing exacly how the mystery plays, and just sucking out all the fun. Every other character is is there just for their catchphrase with Velma as a moving plot explainer.

>in a show about ghosts.
Scooby Doo was never about ghosts. It was about frauds and crooks pretending to be ghosts.

Where the hell is Velma's cleavage?

Yeah but back then they did allow spooky talking skulls for a gag, insted of having to mathematically explain to us how exactly every piece was moved by the crook so there's 0 doubt it was all done by a human. Or give Velma 5 minutes of ranting every time something is slightly unexplainable.

Daphne's is in "Guess Who".

They did the same thing in the 13 ghosts movie. Just teasing it movie by movie. Some writers must know that the little bit of actuall magic is important, and the policy that says no unexplanable stuff ever in this show, is a bad one.

Welp, that killed my interest, didn't they say in the trailer its real? Now I don't have to watch this shitshow. Someone in WB must REALLY have a hateboner for stuff like Zombie Island (despite it saving the franchises ass). I hope it's not some fucking mandate like Sonic IDW and the Mario npcs
She's probably just gonna ignore it.
>Courage crossover
I REALLY want it to be good, but with how bad the movies have gotten and the whole "hurr monsters aren't real cuz Velma say so" stick is hampering my hopes.

I bet the only reason the halloween movie was decent was because it's written by Maxwell Atoms

>Someone in WB must REALLY have a hateboner for stuff like Zombie Island (despite it saving the franchises ass).
It feels like that way after the "sequel", They even used a clip of Zombie Island on this movie during the "time travel" sequence.

>the whole "hurr monsters aren't real cuz Velma say so" stick is hampering my hopes.
Can't wait to have Velma retcon the entire Courage canon with her facts and science. Because nothing says fun like explaining the mystery.

If it wasn't for Zombie island, the only relevance Scooby would have nowadays is hanging out with Yogi bear and crew, because the last scooby movie before that was just a Hana Barbera movie with Shaggy and Scooby as the wrap around.

Oh Wait, even Yellowstone is looking better, if only because it's by the guy who made Chowder.

I gotta ask since I don't really care about the film anymore. How does the time travel thing get explained? It's that Gues Who episode with "time travel" all over again. They'd even ruin a crossover with Dr Who

Nothing says a good character by turning her into an insufferable Genius bitch that has to explain every single thing. They're making her the zimbabwae-man.
