As a huge Scooby Doo fan, naturally I wanted to see Scooby Doo Goes Hollywood. I will admit I was a little disappointed by it, but I didn't think it was bad. The music is great and true to the style of the decade it's set in, and I liked the song sung by Fred, Daphne and Velma and the duet between Scooby and Cher(ie).The voice work is still excellent, particularly from Don Messick, Casey Kasem and Frank Welker, and I enjoyed the spoofs on Happy Days, Charlie's Angels, Sonny and Cher and Superman. My favourite is the one on Sound of Music, which is still very funny.The characters still have their likability. Scooby and Shaggy still make me smile and laugh, and while underused Fred, Daphne and Velma manage to not be dull.Scooby Doo Goes Hollywood isn't perfect however. My feelings on the animation were mixed. The colours are lively and plentiful and some of the background art is nice, but the editing could have done with being more fluid and some of the character designs are not as strong as they could have been.The concept was intriguing and it was very interesting at the start. However, the story is rather thin and predictable, and perhaps rushed too, with too much focus on the jokes and spoofs in alternative to a coherent storyline.I was also mixed on the writing, most of the jokes and spoofs are very funny, but there are also some lame puns along the way and one or two of the spoofs due to feeling skimmed over don't quite make the grade.All in all, a decent enough special, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. 6/10 Bethany Cox

I actually remember seeing this animated movie of Scooby Doo as a special on Prime Time. I think ABC aired it on either a Saturday or a Sunday night in 1979 and I can't recall, but I think at the time, they were showing the Scooby Doo episodes of 1978 on Scooby's All Stars or maybe it was right before Scooby and Scrappy Doo aired that fall.Anyway, it's been so long since I've seen it, but from what I can recall, it was about Shaggy convincing Scooby that he is better than a Saturday morning TV star and should pursue a career as a movie star and being in spoofs of Happy Days, Charlie's Angels, Saturday Night Fever, Superman, and more. Definitely 70's. And I believe that Shaggy and Scooby drove the Hollywood producers crazy trying to market themselves. Fred, Daphne, and Velma are in this special, but their roles are smaller. I guess that was a sign of things to come on future Saturday morning incarnations of Scooby Doo. I did find this on video and rented it a few years ago. Man did it bring back some lost memories. I recommend giving this movie a try just for kicks.

Maybe it was OK in the 70s if there was nothing else on (ut it was the only DVD we saw for Scooby that was bad) The rest of them are great rentals, but this one was a horrific flashback of the duller years for me and a regular bore for the kids.The entire show is about Scooby trying to play other roles, like on Happy Days, and every one he does ends up with him crashing into something. It is also a wanna be musical, with no real plot and certainly no mystery.I can't believe they bothered to put this on DVD! If you want to rent a great Scooby movie, get anything else first!!!! Even Harlem globe trotters is Academy material compared to this one.
