The best, original Scooby-Doo animated movie seen for some years, Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King is genuinely imaginative, fun, and full of surprises--particularly in its vocal casting. Besides the usual group--Casey Kasem still going strong as the voice of Shaggy (since 1969), Frank Welker as both Scooby-Doo and Mystery Inc.'s leader, Fred, Mindy Cohn as Velma and Grey DeLisle as Daphne--Goblin King features Wallace Shawn, Lauren Bacall, Tim Curry and Wayne Knight in substantial roles. The lively story finds the Mystery Inc. gang enjoying a Halloween night at a carnival, where a hack magician (Knight) steals the power of a fairy on unauthorized leave from the spirit world. Faced with a threat to Fred, Velma, and Daphne, Shaggy and Scooby enter that parallel dimension overrun by elves, headless horsemen, witches, a talking pumpkin, etc. Their mission is to get to the Goblin King (Curry), who can stop the magician?s feverish quest for more and more power. The story is endlessly colorful and sharp, more of a fable than the average Scooby-Doo cartoon as Shaggy and Scooby, unlikely heroes, wander through a wonderland of ghouls for an answer. --Tom Keogh

 Best animated Scooby Doo movie October 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
First Review by Kayla and JJ (ages 6 and 7):
We really loved this movie. We have seen a lot of the Scooby Doo movies and all of the cartoons, and we think this was the best animated Scooby Doo movie so far. We give this movie 5 stars.
This movie is a little scarier than most other Scooby Doo movies, so kids under 6 years old might be afraid.
The movie had a lot of action and a good story. While the rest of the gang was not in as much of the movie, they did appear in the movie, so it wasn't just Scooby Doo and Shaggy like some other movies. We like to see the entire gang in the movies and cartoons.
Thank you for reading our first review.

 Good but its mostly Scooby and Shaggy October 1, 2008

I'm a HUGE Scooby fan, have every DVD and many collectibles. I liked the movie but unfortunately Fred, Daphne and Velma weren't in it much. I like it when the entire gang has equal time in the film. Don't get me wrong, it was good and worth getting but I much more like the whole gang rather than focusing on Scooby and Shaggy.
 This is not the worth the money September 30, 2008

I LOVE Scooby-Doo......normally. This movie was VERY disappointing. The story jumped around way to much, making it hard for my 6yr old to follow. Was mostly about Scoob and shag, again my son did not like that. He really likes Freddy......so needless to say this is one video we should have viewed before buying, because it will probably never be watched again. Very disappointed, big waist of money. If you like the whole cast don't waist your time with this one.
***Scooby and the Gang are B*A*C*K!! September 28, 2008
SCOOBY-DOO AND THE GOBLIN KING DVD is a feature length movie of Scooby and the Mystery Inc. gang.
I'm pretty sure that this is a new film since I can't find any information for a previous release date. Anyway, the cast includes the original voice of "Fred" (Frank Welker, who also does the voice of "Scooby") and the original voice of "Shaggy"--the great Casey Kasem. Also returning in their respective roles from the What's New, Scooby-Doo? - The Complete First Season is Grey Delisle as "Daphne" and Mindy Cohn as "Velma" who sound almost like the actors who voiced the characters in the original Scooby Doo, Where Are You! - The Complete First and Second Seasons series.
And there are plenty of guest-star voices too including Lauren Bacall, Wayne Knight (Newman on "Seinfeld") and Tim Curry.
This cartoon centers mostly on Scooby and Shaggy who get teleported to the "Spirit World" where they must get the goblin scepter before an evil magician steals it and turns everyone on earth into Halloween monsters. Fred, Daphne and Velma are at the beginning and end of the movie, so the format is a little different then the regular series which usually centers on the gang and switches back and forth between Scooby and Shaggy, and Fred and the girls, when they get separated.
Another departure from the norm is that the stuff is really happening (i.e. real magic, real fairies and real goblins), unlike the tv show where it was a criminal disguised as an evil monster or supernatural being, so it's similar to Scooby-Doo! And the Witch's Ghost. I know some adults seem to have a problem with this, but the kids will have a ball watching the movie. After all it is a CARTOON people! There are a lot of Disney spoofs in this movie and it never really get's too scary.
The only special features is a magician who will show you how to do some magic tricks.
I recommend it to Scooby and Mystery Inc. fans of all ages!
Can't wait to get this Scooby adventure August 5, 2008
