Scooby, Shaggy and the black knight
Being a huge 'Scooby Doo' fan for goodness knows how long, any new show, special or film would be watched with great anticipation. While 'Scooby Doo Where Are You' is still the jewel of the crown of the franchise, it was interesting to see 'Scooby Doo' rendered in Lego.
'Lego Scooby Doo', as said with the previous episodes, was something found quite by accident after watching the short special 'Knight Time Terror' and the two Lego-rendered 'Scooby Doo' films 'Haunted Hollywood' and 'Blowout Beach Bash'. After being pleasantly surprised by 'Knight Time Terror' and 'Blowout Beach Bash' (was mixed on 'Haunted Hollywood'), it made me interested to see more Lego 'Scooby Doo', having seen other films lately following the Lego animation trend and doing it remarkably well. They are very short episodes, but is quite an interesting little series even if different than expected, being more encounters with monsters with lots of fun and spooky atmosphere rather than a mystery with an unmasking.
The atmosphere is spooky and fun, starting off creepily and then Shaggy and Scooby's antics and outwitting of the black knight are very funny and further demonstration that underneath their easily scared personalities they do have a clever streak. The black knight is great fun if not one of the creepier 'Lego Scooby Doo' villains.
Shaggy and Scooby are just so charming and lovable together, and they are such great characters that are compelling enough to carry an episode on their own providing the material is good (it wasn't at all in 'Shaggy and Scooby Doo: Get a Clue', a disgrace to the franchise, but it is in 'Lego Scooby Doo').
"Wicked Warehouse Pursuit" has an atmospheric and elaborate warehouse setting and the climactic moments are among the series' cleverest. The writing is endearingly goofy. Animation-wise, the animation is very nicely done. It's very colourful and atmospheric and the music is dynamic and whimsical with a nice haunted house vibe too with the main theme. Voice acting is good.
In my view, the (as ever) too short length and slightly rushed pace are the only drawbacks to a very good episode that is among the better ones in the 'Lego Scooby Doo' series. 8/10 Bethany Cox
