Heartwarming / Scooby-Doo in Where’s My Mummy?

Go To

  • When Scooby picks up Velma's scent, he won't let anything stop him from seeing her again after six months. And then we get the scene when he finally reunites with her. D'awww.
  • At the end, Scooby is able to figure out that Cleopatra is Velma in disguise after picking up her scent again.
  • Really, it'd just be easier to say every interaction Scooby has with Velma in this movie qualifies.
  • Second to the Velma/Scooby interactions in terms of heartwarming are the Daphne/Scooby interactions. The first example is when a severe sandstorm forces the gang to seek shelter in The Sphinx. Despite being led by the wrist by Fred, Daphne stays behind to call out to Scooby and Shaggy.
    Daphne: Shaggy? Scooby? Where are you?
    Shaggy: We don't know. But when we figure it out, we'll send you a postcard! [both Shaggy and Scooby are running against the wind]
  • Another heartwarming moment is when despite Fred and Daphne barely escaping the giant swarms of locusts brought on by the curse of Cleopatra with their lives, the only thing on Daphne's mind is finding Shaggy and Scooby. Considering her other experience with insects, the fact that she is able to brush it off so easily and focus solely on finding Shaggy and Scooby is both heartwarming and kinda brave.
  • Both parts heartwarming and tearjerking for the interactions with both Daphne and Scooby in this movie is the scene on the temple steps after learning Velma was turned to stone where Fred, Daphne, Shaggy, and Scooby are mourning Velma accompanied by the normally jolly Scooby howling in mourning. After a little while, Daphne walks down the steps to comfort him.
    Daphne [sadly] Aw, poor Scooby. Listen to him, he's heartbroken. [wraps her arms around him]
    Scooby [whimpers]
  • The final and crowning moment of heartwarming for the Daphne and Scooby interactions in this movie surprisingly last only roughly 10 seconds.
    Daphne [suddenly smiles] I got something that might cheer you up. [pulls out Scooby's lost collar] Recognize this?
    Scooby [smiles as he nuzzles his collar before Daphne slips it around his neck] Aw, Scooby-Doo.
  • (Also counts as Awesome) While not as long or complex as a heartwarming moment from something like a Disney or Miyazaki movie, Daphne's simple act of kindness by reuniting Scooby with something that was once lost, and Scooby's catchphrase "Scooby-Doo" which was spoken an awful lot like a heartfelt "thank you" before he cries brief Tender Tears/Tears of Joy and Daphne's smile, indicates that the both of them truly understand each other. All of this results in a brief moment that is surprisingly heartwarming and thought-provoking for a Direct to Video movie based on a show that's commonly (mis)labeled as just for 3 to 9-year-olds, and whose direct-to-video movies since Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase got lukewarm praise at best over the years.
