 ===== Reviews =====
+==== on Zombie Island ====
+The first of the four Japanese Scooby-Doo films. I think it's alright. The girls are sexy, but then there isn't much else to it.
+It's entertaining as the starting point of the trilogy/tetralogy and also introduces the gimmick of the supernatural bits being //actually supernatural//.
+When I first added the section, I thought I had erroneously stated I re-watched it when I had watched it for the first time only recently. But then I remembered that I //had// seen it at least once before.
+==== and the Witch's Ghost ====
+This one is much like the other two Japanese Scooby-Doo films, except a lot less colorful (due to taking place mostly at night). The Hex Girls((:fn:>Claimed to be LGBT representation on Wikipedia. How? There isn't even a hint of anything that could even be remotely understood as subtext.)) are cute and...yeah.
+The main mystery this time was just a red herring and I feel it wasn't executed super well, then the rest of the film was mostly action which was fine but...y'know, not the best.
+What I can’t take seriously at all is the [[lb:Wicca]] stuff. I know for a fact that Wiccans didn't exist prior to the 20th century, so it's just a little funny to see them appear here. Extra funny since they didn't seem to get the memo that Wiccans //are// witches.
 ==== and the Alien Invaders! ====
 When I was much younger, I used to watch this over and over again so watching it again after a ‘long break’ was a nice treat.((:fn:>My mom happened to be present and she even said that she could remember everything perfectly, down to the intonation. So, yeah, I watched it a lot.\\ Is it one of my favorites? Yes.))

 Also <wrap spoiler>Shaggy's song is a shock, but it elevates the quality of the film. It also reminds me of the song //Downtown//. I'm actually convinced it's just a parody of it.</wrap>
+Something else I found out is that it was animated by the Japanese. I didn't know that until this year, but that //could// explain where part of the anime obsession came from...
 ==== and the Goblin King! ====
 I watched this one right after re-watching //Alien Invaders!// and while I really enjoyed that one...yeah, watching them back-to-back just exemplified the issues. In fact, I had a flashback to my childhood where I remembered thinking of this era as a //**dark age of animation**//.
