I wonder how in on the joke this is gonna be. The last thing anyone needs is a remake of scooby doo played straight.

I for some reason thought this was about the Scoob and Shag webcomic.

So the character designs look pretty good, I'm sure the animation will be fine but are they seriously just calling this movie Scoob?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. Not sure how I feel about Frank Welker not voicing Fred. Why mess with perfection?

I'll check it out, but it will have to be pretty amazing to even come close to Mystery, Inc. levels of greatness.

I dunno, I think, say, "the real bad guy was the apartment owner trying to scare his tenants away so they could renovate it into an AirBnB" is an extremely relevant idea for a believable Scooby Doo villain gimmick. I just don't want something like that live-action film from 2002 which was trying to be too smart for its source material and just wasn't good to watch either.

I mean, that's still "old man johnson's up to his bullshit again, guess it's up to these kids to figure it out". We've been there.

I would hope this would lean more Mystery Inc where it takes the half jokes and memes and wink nods across the past 4 decades of Scooby Doo and molds them into something fun and interesting. Because real talk, The Scooby Squad knows more pleasant and upstanding ghosts than they do evil ones.

But like, WE JUST did Hey You! Scooby Doo. We don't need another reboot that's just Scooby Doo Again.



I totally believe neo fred would be on that romper tip.

This just makes we wish they could do another semi-serious one like scooby doo on zombie island, still the goat scooby movie

So this is still gonna have Blue Falcon, Dick Dastardly, and Captain Caveman in it? They still want to do the HB Cinematic Universe?

These stills look great, though. It's a bit odd that Scooby and Shaggy are still largely in their usual look while everyone else is "updated" a bit, but whatever. Going to be weird to see some of the other characters though.

Fred always had a power chin, i think it looks good enough. This movie is also a testament that Velma is the best of em all, and that her design is timeless. Everyone out here looking like a god damn millennial and Velma is rocking her classic 60s outfit like its nobodies business.
