Jeffrey Combs, Velma as Robin, Batman & Scooby Doo! What's not to love?
9 March 2018
Warning: Spoilers
If you want to have fun for an hour and a half, play spot the Easter egg, for both franchises and wallow in nostalgia, this is the film for you. Aimed squarely at Scooby fans and Brave and the Bold TV series fans, an ardent Batman aficionado will hate this, but kids and the young at heart, who long for a return of the silver age caped crusader will be in seventh heaven. I'll admit seeing Velma, out Carrie Kelley-ing Carrie Kelley, and take up the mantel of Robin was a high point, as was her character being allowed to shine in this story and NOT seeing Daphne be the damsel in distress with that role falling to Aquaman of all people was pretty amusing. The Villain too is fun, though it is telegraphed way in advance who and what it is, though the red herrings as to his identity are all call backs and Easter eggs, some very (amazingly) obscure and unexpected.
