!!FridgeLogic:
* Velma actually has a variety of arguments to protest the group getting involved with the plot but fails to really use any of them. One of the best would be that her "family's lawyer" is a complete and utter stranger to her. Another good one would be that she's a stranger to him, since he only contacted her after getting lucky with a [[WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooStageFright Giggle search]].
* In the end, Velma says she gave away the rights to the natural gas to the locals. Wasn't it all blown up during the villains' attempt to kill the gang?
** They blew up a ''gas pocket'' where methane had already seeped out of the rocks. There's probably plenty more still saturating the ground, that will seep out over time or could be extracted via fracking.

** Further the opening credits is set up like a stalker shrine with what appears to be a Dinkley family tree but no Madelyne. It's an in-universe CriticalResearchFailure on the bad guy's part that a super Scooby fan is meant to deduce. Pretty brilliant idea for the movie where villains finally return.

* Daphne's HeroicBSOD over her "curse" could have had additional causes than simple vanity about her appearance. Daphne is a model. Her job is based around looking perfect, and now that's suddenly not an option. She lost not only her looks, but also the career and fanbase she worked hard to build in one fell swoop.

* For the four bad guy choices. [[spoiler:Despite the jail time, a high profile attorney, a shipping magnate, a 70s rock band member and a tavern entrepreneur would probably be some of the best choices of ''Scooby'' villains to have enough money to buy up the castle]].

* Several of the train cars fall off the train before the gang gets the passengers to start running towards the front car.
* If [[spoiler:Velma]] hadn't been accidentally un-hypnotized by the monster, she might have ended up [[spoiler:killing the whole gang]]. And if the villains had un-hypnotized her ''after'' she'd done so, the realization would most probably have driven her actually insane. [[AndIMustScream The implications that she may be AWARE of what she's doing while she's hypnotized, don't help...]]

* The mere idea that past villains would return to try to take their revenge on the Scooby gang is scary. But what makes it even more terrifying is that the ones we’ve seen in this movie are but a small fraction of the countless criminals that have been caught by the gang. Who’s to say that other villains won’t have the same idea of teaming up to try to take their revenge on the gang in the future? And what if they all decide to come at the gang at the same time? Just imagine, instead of just four of them like in this movie, there could be an entire LegionOfDoom of Scooby-Doo villains scheming, plotting and patiently biding their time in the shadows, just waiting for the right moment to strike at the Mystery Gang…

** It's entirely possible that the above might have been worse: she might have decided she [[DrivenToSuicide didn't want to go on without her friends]]. Brr...

* You'd think that instead of just telling Velma about the inheritance, the ''family'' lawyer would've also told her parents, since they're the authority of the family and he should be reporting directly to them.

* As the main page pointed out the opening credits of this movie use what appears to be a random clip from ''Abracadabra Doo'' with Madelyn Dinkley walking with the gang. But it's there for the viewer to give a hint right from the get-go something is wrong with the mystery when the lawyer says Velma is the youngest of the Dinkley's.

* The idea of a ''Scooby'' villain social network seems hokey, until you start counting how many potential people there are to join it over the many decades of the Scooby Gang solving mysteries.
