Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated: The Night the Clown Cried II: Tears of Doom! (2012)
Makes no sense
This is not a scooby doo episode, it's just a hodge podge of action movie cliches. Scooby Doo never really makes sense but it at least is usually consistent, but things just kinda happen in this episode, it's complete nonsense. Spoilers: at one point Fred chases down a plane, jumps onto the wheel well, the flies it in circles to beat up the clown, then punches him in the face, and that was his trap. Basically it makes no sense and is completely inconsistent with every other iteration of Scooby Doo.
Avengers Assemble (2012)
Quickly went off the rails
The first two seasons were fun and very watchable, then I think they changed the writing staff for seasons 3-5 because overnight the show became utterly unwatchable, even for a kids show. I wouldn't let my kids watch this show, it's far too dumb. Good writing is important and I wouldn't want my kids being the tasteless morons that this show would turn them into.
As an example of what I'm talking about, they introduce a character called Ms Marvel who is basically if you took a fan of the show and made them a character in the show. She's just awful. They try to do this new age, meta style commentary using her and it's just idiotic. Her gimmick is that she keeps asking for selfies with the avengers....this show was written by sixth graders, for toddlers, keep your kids away from this, it'll rot their brains.
Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United (2013)
Can't say enough bad things
Marvel has a lot of people to fire. It feels like they let some 7 year old kid write the script, then hired his 8 year old brother to direct and gave them about $10 total to do the animation. Seriously, I don't usually care about stuff like animation, but they tried to make it more realistic looking but they skimped so hard the whole thing just ended up super off putting and upsetting. They'd have been better off just doing normal cartoon animation.
The script is the worst part though. I could write a ten page essay on the issues with their writing, but it'll suffice to say that Hulk spends the entire movie making terrible plays on words, trying to logically argue with Stark, and at times even pontificating?? He's the hulk, even in the comics he could barely form a coherent thought. If I'm being honest, it felt like I was watching the cutscenes from a super low budget video game from some studio that's already out of business. I guarantee marvel that the brand damage this movie did far outweighs whatever profit it made. Some movies are so bad that they're better left unmade.
