Critics suck.

Yes, this is the kind of statement that warra nts a "Yeah, what else is new?" but I think they really suck, because I saw Scooby Doo today, and ya know what? I freaking liked it just fine.

There's no denying it has a couple issues. The soundtrack blows hard. It's like listening to the Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Awards, only coated with half melted candy pop crap. They didn't even have a cover of the fallback Scooby Chase song, Davey Jones's uhhh...i don't know the name, but it goes "I know... a place where I am going...a place where I am going, 's right around the block...and you know etc..." (if you don't know it . message me and I'll call you and sing it for ya, it's cool. Anyways, yeah, the music sucks. And so does the fact that they felt the need to match each cast member up with a love interest to quell the rumors that have all the drunken college kids getting high to the show giggling. The little fart joke scene I could have done without, oo.

Aside from those, it really is an entertaining movie. Sure, it's directed towards kids mostly, but there's enough little jokes for adults in there to make it enjoyable for any age. It's a story of friendship, and go ahead and call me a sappy wuss (I dare ya), but I like a feel good movie amidst the dreary hopeless fare I usually favor. There's even a couple pot jokes cleverly slipped in for the skeevy stoners and our college friends from the first paragraph of this review!

granted, some people didn't like the show. If you're one of those heathens, you're not going to like the movie, because it is a very true live action portrayal of the cartoon I loved so dearly as a youth. It's fun, the cast is dead on in their roles (especially Lilliard's Shaggy...they can do a couple more of these movies solely because he's THAT good). Sure, the story could have been a little better, but for just a little mindless summer fun, it's a winner, especially if you have a kid to take.

...and the villain of the movie...wow. You won't believe it until you see it. That alone was worth the price of admission.

Yeah, so my longest journal entry to date is about a silly summer blockbuster. I can't help it, I love reviewing movies, and I think this one really got torn apart by self-righteous asswipes. It's Scooby Doo, for fuck's sake, not Shakespeare. Have fun.
timmy:
I don't know dude. After watching the show for years it would be hard to stomach a CGI Scoob.

But I'll agree with you that the actors were right on the money. Freddy Prinze just looks creepy as the aryan Freddy.

Hey, where abouts in TX are you at?
