!!This episode includes examples of the following tropes:
* AttackAttackRetreatRetreat: During the ScoobyDoobyDoors sequence, the Chrono-beast chases the gang into one of the portals, only to flee back out when they come after it riding a [[KingOfTheDinosaurs T-Rex]].
* BadFuture: When Malcolm [=McDowell=] invents a time machine, he takes the gang into two separate futures, one of which includes an army of giant spider robots patrolling a LostWorld-like setting, and one terrorized by an evil robot Scooby-Doo. Neither are real, just the result of an elaborate green screen movie soundstage.
* BeamOWar: Future Scooby and Shag-Borg fire beams at each other, which meet each other midway.
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** The food on Malcolm's table and in the future all tastes the same. It's fake food made of marzipan.
** The Future Velma who calls her present self uses Liverpool slang. Velma eventually realizes that this indicates she was a fake created by Malcolm [=McDowell=], who grew up in the area.
** Velma can always get a Wifi signal, no matter when they go. That's because the "future" is a sound stage.
* ClockRoaches: Malcolm claims the Chrono-Beast has been following him since he created the time machine and that it lives in the time vortex. He turns out to ''be'' the Chrono-Beast.
* RetGone: Not to a person, for once. Shaggy and Scooby promise to be best friends whenever, no matter what, which undoes the feud between Supreme Leader Dooby Doo and Shag-Borg.
* ScoobyDoobyDoors: The episode's inevitable chase scene through a series of door involves time portals.
* ShoutOut:
** When Scooby-Doo and Shaggy spot a [[GiantFood Giant Banana]] in the future, they say the following:
-->'''Shaggy''': Come on, Scoob, I think it's time we went-
-->'''Scooby-Doo''': [[Franchise/BackToTheFuture Snack to the Future!]]
** During Malcolm's MotiveRant, he explains that he was trying to get Mystery Inc's endorsement on his time-travel theme park experience, and he compares it to [[Film/JurassicPark another theme park with dinosaurs.]]
