I mean the two prequels had there cute moments. So did the two motion pictures. Nothing ill ever probably sit through again. But they were not bad per say.
Still have a lot more series and episodes to go but ive almost seen every movie now.

I personally loved the first 2 live action movies and thought they were really well done. Mystery Begins I was like eh, lake monster most disappointed me. I got my hopes up thinking the live actions were going to be a big deal so the night lake monster premiered we had like a little party and it ended up being a really silly movie.

I still can't understand who read the scripts of these films, and were like "Yes green light this! This is the perfect script for a Scooby-Doo movie". I'll post rants of each film in their review thread but here's a condensed version:  *02- I'm 99% convinced they did no research on this film, it has nearly no elements from the original in it. *04- It's a bit better, but it's a bunch of plots smushed together and a bunch of stuff that doesn't make sense. *08- There was effort in this to make it like the original, but the budget in the majority of the departments wasn't there. *10- This is a poorly put together film. I did like how they were like "Please stop shipping!" though. |

If anything I think the big thing on the first one was more they wrote it more to parody some elements of the original than they did to make it like the original.
To me while there were some cool elements in the theatrical ones, the tv movies were far better for me. Mostly because I also dislike when theatrical movies throw out many of the things I like about the cartoon, where I'm looking for a movie that is a "cartoon in live action", I often instead get "live action movies inspired by cartoons".
And because of this, I'm also having a major dislike in super hero movies, despite being a comics fan, most of the movies leave me too bored by them dropping some of the elements that made me enjoy the comics in the first place.

Ha. Trust me I already looked into that. Mostly because (without turning this into a random spoiler thread) Baron Zemo is one of my all-time favorite Marvel characters (Thunderbolts all the way!), and no I wasn't pleased by what I read. XD
But it all paints around the same dance for me. I like Scooby because he's a silly talking dog doing whacky things solving mysteries with people dressed up as cool monsters. So that's of course the tone I prefer in a Scooby movie. And I think the tv movies helped stay closer to that. At least for me they did.

Scrappy being the villain is what made the first live action movie jump the shark.

Scrappy being the villain is what made the first live action movie jump the shark. Or Daphne's truly truly awful character or the innuendos or the bad writing or the gang separating in the first five minuets or the burp scene or Velma's two second love interest. There's so much to choose from! |

Live action doesn't work for Scooby-Doo in my opinion. Maybe they could of done it like Roger Rabbit or Space Jam.

Since I segweyed this thread briefly once, can I do it again? XD
I do one day hope we get a Roger Rabbit movie closer to the book. That would be cool.
But anyway back on the thread. I think it "can" work if the people making it know what they want out of it. While some of us may disagree on how they like it done, I think any competent production crew could find a way to make it work. But it mostly depends on how they think it should work. Which goes back to what I said earlier. While if I was them, I'd want it to be a cartoon in live action. Others may instead want it more like a comedy movie based on Scooby Doo, or etc.
