Forget the Mystery Machine. Fire up the reboot robot...
After years of Hanna Barbera animated adventures, the answer to the question “Scooby Doo, where are you?” was answered by Warner Bros. in 2002 with the first live-action / CG-blend outing for the pooch and his pals, followed in 2004 by sequel Monsters Unleashed. Neither film was garlanded with critical glory, but Warners is now thinking that a reboot could be just the trick.
Yes, though it ticks almost all the boxes on the form marked “things people complain about online” the new version of the classic ‘toon will indeed start again from scratch, with Randall Green assigned to script duty, taking over a gig that belonged to Guardians Of The Galaxy director James Gunn for the first two films.
Nothing else has been released about the new movie, but we’d expect see a new director handle the megaphone and fresh faces in front of the camera alongside the requisite freshly crafted CG hound. What mysteries will the team – peppy Fred, dippy Daphne, smart Velma and slacker Shaggy – have to investigate this time? And will we be treated to another take on, gulp, Scrappy Doo? Zoinks!
