Moviecut—Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King

Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King (2008) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Scooby and Shaggy go to a magic show with the gang when they call out a fake magician who in return turns Fred, Velma and Daphne into monster. Scooby and Shaggy must then enter the monster underground to find a cure but first they must go up against the Goblin King. This feature is pretty uneven and I'd probably call it the weakest I've seen so far. It's certainly not a bad movie and I'm sure fans of Scooby will be entertained but there were several moments where my son's interest (as well as mine) was not fully into the picture. I think the start of the film is a lot of fun as the gang are on a roller coaster ride with all sorts of scary monsters around. The ending is also a lot of fun as Scooby and Shaggy have to dress up as Velma and Daphne to get into the Goblin King's party. This here adds some nice laughs and there's another great sequence where the duo go to a monster party. The animation during this party sequence is great and there's a lot of good imagination going on with the various creature looks. The biggest problem is in the middle of the picture where it just seems like the writers didn't know where to take the material and we've got a lot of scenes that just drag without much happening. Still, fans of Scooby should at least be mildly entertained and we even have the likes of James Belushi, Tim Curry and Wayne Knight and Jay Leno adding some vocal support.

Well first off let me say this was by far one of the best Scooby Doo cartoon adventures I have ever seen. From beginning to end I was smiling being a long time fan of Scooby Doo I'm always excited to see what the next movie will bring, and this time around I was definitely not disappointed. Scooby and the gang are enjoying a wonderful Halloween night at a Halloween carnival filled with exciting rides with a few scares thrown in. After Scooby is denied entry into a magic show Shaggy and Scooby decide to take it upon themselves to show that this magician is a fraud. After upsetting this magician, he is determined to get his revenge and unleashes an rage of black magic. It is now up to Shaggy and Scooby to save humanity from this evil magician before he sets forth dire and irreversible circumstances. The storyline this Scooby Doo movie follows is filled with non stop excitement, action, laughs and just pure old fashion fun. Shaggy and Scooby must travel to the super natural world to retrieve the Goblin Kings magical wand before it gets into the hands of the amazing Krudsky. Along the way we are met with funny characters, catchy songs and a story that will keep you interested until the end and begging for more. The only thing I wish there could have been of was good plot twists, there was only one twist at the very end of the film which was an OK twist but could have been a bit more interesting. I also like the fact that this movie returns to the use of real monsters and that it travels to the supernatural world, it just made this adventure that much more fun and exciting. I must say, by far the best part of this Scooby Doo adventure was the all star voice cast. This one has everyone such as the regulars: Frank Welker as Scooby Doo and Fred, Casey Kasem as Shaggy, Mindy Cohn as Velma and Grey Delisle as Daphne who all do an amazing job as their characters as usual. On top of the regular cast we are gifted with the likes of: Wayne Knight as The Amazing Krudsky, Wallace Shawn as Mr. Gibbles, Jay Leno...yes I said Jay Leno as Jack O' Lantern, Tim Curry as the Goblin King and even James Belushi as Glob, who all do such a wonderful job which just makes this Scooby Doo adventure shine. So if you're a Scooby Doo fan or you are just looking for a good Halloween movie to enjoy with your kids this is the movie for you, from the great comedy to the great voice talents, it is a movie for all ages and is defiantly worth watching. Overall Rating: ********* out of ********** ****1/2 out of *****

"Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King" is certainly a movie that will appeal to the long-time fans of Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Gang. I, however, found the 2008 "Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King" animated movie to be just another generic, run-of-the-mill addition to the Scooby-Doo franchise. It didn't stand out in any way. Now, don't get me wrong, I am not saying that this was a bad movie or a boring movie, not at all. It just happened to be a very standard and generic animated movie that we have seen so many times before. The animation was good and the art style was good, very much keeping up with the traditional art style that is used in the Hanna-Barbera cartoon. So on that account, there is some sense of security and familiarity to it. As usual the voice acting was great, as it always is in the Scooby-Doo animated movies. And it is always a treat to have Frank Welker and Casey Kasem do the voices. Furthermore there are some rather great voice appearances in this particular animated movie as well, such as Tim Curry, Jim Belushi and Jay Leno. The storyline in "Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King" was somewhat too generic and stereotypical, even for a Scooby-Doo movie, and that was the main reason why my rating of it ends on a mediocre 5 out of 10 stars.

A part of me wants to love this. It really seems like they were trying to return to the old school Scooby Doo feel. The look was very New Scooby Doo Movies. Even the cover felt like the Scooby Doo everyone grew up with. So, it really felt like they were throwing us old Scooby fans one massive cherry. But then, it was really only Shaggy and Scooby and they can't carry it alone any longer, the movies are about Mystery Inc and the whole Scooby Gang and you feel robbed when they are paid that much lip service... And then the plot never came together. It felt too much like they were trying too hard to appeal to us old Scooby Fans and not hard enough to appeal to the people that came to love Scooby from these movies.

Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King (2008) is a movie my daughter and I recently watched together on HBOMAX. The storyline follows Shaggy and Scooby as they head into an underworld to save their friends, and believe it or not fairies, from being turned into monsters by the goblin king. They are followed by a man who wants to steal the goblin kings powers for himself to start his own rule of terror on Earth. This movie is directed by Joe Sichta (Scooby-Doo and the Loch Ness Monster) and contains the voices of Frank Welker (Transformers), Casey Kasem (Ghostbusters), Grey Griffin (Invincible), Wayne Knight (Jurassic Park), Tim Curry (It), Jay Leno (Contact), Lauren Bacall (The Big Sleep) and Jim Belushi (Red Heat). The storyline for this is a little unique for the Scooby-Doo universe but still fun to watch unfold. The animation is excellent and the writing for the characters is fun. The scenarios are very unique and unpredictable. The opening scene is awesome and the voices are well selected. Overall this isn't an animated classic but it is worth watching if you're a fan of Scooby. I'd score this a 6/10.

This is the worst scooby doo movie to ever exist. Do not watch, I have wasted so much time watching this same movie every single year. It's the only movie that's on tv over Christmas and Halloween, and I lose more sanity each time I watch it again. I hate that green fairy and how she gets stuck everywhere. I hate the fat ginger man that owns the mansion I wish the worst for him and the fairy. I also hate that big stupid magician, why is he the way he is? We will never know but he is one of the most annoying characters in this movie. I am absolutely sick to death of this movie, I have watched it almost every year of my short, pathetic life. So far, I have wasted 975 minutes on watching this movie since it's on every year and literally nothing else is on tv. I could have spent those minutes outside, or talking to actual human beings, but no. I am a committed scooby doo super fan. One of the few things I like about this movie is that shaggy and scooby finally get their deserved roles as main characters. But I hate the rest of the movie.
