A very funny movie for people who grew up on Scooby-Doo.

With nostalgia taking a hit with the wretched likes of Halloween Kills and Space Jam: A New Legacy, it’s understandable to approach a new Scooby-Doo film with a sense of dread. But Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo! is definitely a treat.

Young Scooby-Doo fans will find lots to enjoy, and so will parents nostalgic for the franchise in this Halloween-themed mystery. It's silly and straightforward but a fun way to get into the Halloween spirit.

Velma is a lesbian and she has a crush on a woman and isn't that empowering... it's also the majority of the plot. And that plot is about the minority lesbian woman that Velma has a crush on showing that she is absolutely perfect, better at everything than the Scooby-Gang, and Velma has a crush on her. One-by-one, she shows up the Scooby Gang (reminder that Velma has a lesbian crush on her) and solves the mystery (reminder that Velma has a lesbian crush on her) almost single-handedly (reminder that Velma has a lesbian crush on her) without really needing Daphne, Scooby and especially showing up Fred and Shaggy (reminder that Velma has a lesbian crush on her) and then Velma comes out that she has a crush on her... ... which was apparent and completely obvious from the start, frequently re-enforced, and the real plot of the cartoon. I guess if you really want to teach your kids about LGBTAQ++??? politics, this is a great cartoon. If you don't, you might want to show them something else.
