Indeed. That's what I've come to expect for the family who's bread and butter is dark humor: toning it down. Good to see they have made the proper transition into making the franchise entirely run-of-the-mill family friendly entertainment. Tsk tsk, I think it's fair to be rightfully miffed after seeing what they are now bringing to the table with this second attempt.

[@jiado6893]

The second movie succeeded where the first failed in gentrifying the Addams.

[@adrivoid5376]

At this point it feels like everyone is not getting what the Addams are about. Its about the family being affectionate while unsettlingly dark, when the rest of the world is normal but cold. Like in the modern age, I would lean more to their supernaturally dark behaviors as well as love for genuinely disturbing things. A lack of social media or care for trends as always. And like the Addams Musical (another where Parents are wary of outsiders, and its Wednesday having conflict with her family over a romantic interest being a normie) says ‘its family first and family last and family by and by’

[@rubynall80]

The only times they've ever cast a good Gomez were John Astin and Raul Julia (love ya, Tim Curry, but not even you could make a convincing Gomez). Because of this, I don't mind focus shifting to Wednesday, as she isn't as difficult to set up. I've never cared for Pugsly, so it never mattered who they chose. What I'm wondering is how could they mess up Fester? Even Lloyds more serious version was better than this. I do have one question, though. Can the Addams Family even work in modern times? In the 90s and the decades prior, it worked because they were oddballs in a world where conformity was the norm. Nowadays, where everyone is trying to stand out from the crowd, how could they remain these oddballs that society rejects?

[@Kylesb]

If they can somehow make the Addams Family come across darker & creepier in their human interactions, then I think that’d help a bit. The miscommunication & dark humor would help keep that up, if it’s done correctly.

[@KhaosAdmiral]

The thing is, I actually do think that Oscar Isaac is a really great choice for Gomez Addams, it's just that the scripts for these movies barely give him anything to work with.

As a fan of Brian Hull, I’m very happy that he’s finally getting to share his talents with the world and will be supporting them all the way

[@drewbear1969]

Yep, still have no desire to see the animated version, sticking with the live action versions and Debbie is still the best villain. I will say though, something that kinda bugs me about all of the Addams Family movies so far is that Thing isn't confined to boxes and other containers. When I watched the TV show growing up, I always imagined that there was some weird transdimensional layer to the house, and not only was that how he retrieved the mail and traveled from room to room, we couldn't even be sure of exactly what Thing was. There's just so much about the house and the family that defy logic, and for me at least (and despite some good jokes and visuals), the movies went and spoiled some of it by making Thing just be a G-rated disembodied hand.

[@boltybolt1697]

I don't think it's really fair to bash on Luca. As a gay guy, I really appreciated the focus on childhood friendship in the movie. It really reminded me of the times I had as a child before life got complicated and harsh. Being gay has brought a lot of hardship in my life and I appreciate having a little escape from that. I also appreciated how there was no romance at all between the characters and Guillia, because I would have been against that too. Sometimes people (mostly straight people) are waaaaay too enthusiastic to label two characters as LGBT+ and get super aggressive when they turn out to not be or just not interested in any romance. I feel for the director and hope he isn't still being harassed and called homophobic for wanting to make a movie that reminisces his own childhood

[@Regfife]

I would also argue that "childhood romances", or at least the way they are often portrayed in media, SHOULD be criticized more. At least have the kids be old enough to drive. And even in adult buddy situations, NOT EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE SHIPPED.

Yeah, I feel like asserting that your story was just supposed to be reflective of your platonic childhood adventures rather than a story of two lgbt+ kids having a romance shouldn't be a controversial action. People can have their own perspective of a piece of work without forcing the author to treat it as their own.

Thank you so much for bringing up the Sherman and Penny “Relationship” in that list. Even when I was younger and I saw it for the first time, the fact that he had romantic feelings for her always confused me, and it makes even less sense looking back. Now, personally, I didn’t interpret Luca and Alberto’s relationship as romantic, and I do disagree with the notion that they’re relationship *had* to be romantic for the film to “work” (not that I believe you’re saying that, just speaking generally), but I even more strongly disagree with the notion that they could never have had any romantic feelings for each other solely because they’re a bit young, especially when you have shit like Sherman and Penny that have happened recently.

[@phonebackup2083]

Is sherman and penny the first two characters on the list? i havent watched that film or show. I heard that ppl were trying to make luca's friendship into an objective romance. I haven't watched the film but what's with ppl and wanting every animated character in some sort of relationship? I also think Cell was pushing it with the pig scene. It was played up for comedy and even pugsley was horrified when he found it she was a pig. Good video nonetheless.

[@billcipher8645]

@@phonebackup2083 the thing is, the movie can joke about young boys flirting with young girls but the moment someone interpretates Luca as a crush between those boys there are suddenly "too young" or "putting romance into everything"... what happens in media is the opposite, hetero kids are shipped even when no crush or chemistry is there but the moment there is a slight possibility for a homosexual crush it's "wrong"

[@phonebackup2083]

@@billcipher8645 Understandable, but didn't some of the complaints come from ppl interpreting it that way rather than it being fact? For example it is objectively shown that pugsley has a crush on this girl who he thinks is a human. Where as in Luca(didn't watch it yet, im behind on my movies, haven't even watched soul yet) fans are interpreting the two boys who could just be friends into having something deeper? There's no doubt in my mind that ppl would be upset even if in the movie the boys objectively had feelings because that's just how some ppl are, but there is a current rise in ppl shipping characters that don't show any signs of having an interest in eachother and then getting upset at the creators or other people that don't see the show or their character pairings the same way they do. Look at my hero academia and voltron for example. Even I fall into it sometimes wondering if a set of characters have been written to get together at a later date or if their character dynamics are pretty good but it's never been a must have. All in all I can understand that some things are left up to interpretation and if ppl want to believe that two characters are in a relationship it doesn't ruin my day but it does get annoying when ppl push things that they've been told isn't the case(didn't the creators for luca say they're just friends?).

[@phonebackup2083]

@@busyg67 I may misinterpret the problem and shipping can definitely be seen as exhausting if one doesn't control themself and wants every character to be in a relationship. If you extrapolate/come to your own belief that a pair of characters are in a relationship thats fine. Keep it to yourself or your own community. The moment people get vocal about their fanfiction/head canon is when it becomes "cringe" on both sides. Most people would probably look at those anime lovers that said sasuke with ino, sasuke x naruto, etc with slight disdain or annoyance. When in reality the pairing is already set in stone. When the creator of luca tells the community that those feelings of love aren't there between the characters. The community takes it negatively. There are probably those thickheaded people that just hate homosexuality and don't want it in the media no matter what but the luca shippers are taking a square block and trying to fit it into a triangular hole.

I’m normally one for an adaptation being as close to its source material as it possibly can be, but I really enjoy the tv sitcom characterizations of the Addams from the 60s the best, they really gave off the vibe of genuinely caring, and kind people who just so happen to find beauty in the macabre, and strange.

These new Addams Family Movies make the first 2 from the 90's look like Masterpieces.

[@hyenaedits3460]

I just realized Wednesday's braids are done up like nooses. That's a pretty great detail. I have no interest in seeing the Addams Family movies but the tie-in pancakes IHOP made for the first movie kinda slapped. They also made a tie-in hot chocolate with a stomach-churning amount of purple dye that wasn't as great.

[@MrCommanderPaul]

That rendition of "Silent Night" in the background was riveting.

That was my first time seeing a natural born poet in the wilds. Ad well done.

[@letoaydan1991]

Great video as always. Also, Netflix just released a new series called "Maya and the three" which takes place in Mesoamerica. The whole premise of the series takes a lot of inspiration from Mayan and Aztec imagery and ideas. It was not heavily advertised but could be fun to review.

[@jameswaters162]

On top of the one person he does gain mutual feelings for being a genetically altered pig, these feelings were created while the Addams were still under the allusion that this was their actual daughter. So Pugsley was just sort of falling in love with what could've been his biological sister.

That advertisement was incredible

Things I'm looking forward to this October; the new Chucky series on TV (currently marathoning the film franchise and am on #6); I've already watched Midnight Mass and it's amazing (as one would expect from a Mike Flanagan work, still can't believe he foreshadowed this limited series in his two Netflix films, Hush and Gerald's Game); Muppets Haunted Mansion, which has to be better than then the Eddie Murphy movie; and Halloween Kills

[@idolxidle6254]

Halloween Kills and the Chucky series are also what I'm most excited for. I do with the new Scream movie was being released this month, it would be the perfect october movie

[@MsAlyssaB1]

I think showing the kids themselves being happy about getting a participation trophy is the most unbelievable thing about this whole movie, the kids weren't the people who were happy about those stupid things it's the crazy ass parents.

[@mariohany589]

A very cool idea to make an ad look nice By making nice rhymes that I'd love to hear once or twice This is the second time I watch one of your videos But I'll probably return for more. Cheerios.

[@DiegoLopez-is8kq]

The reason why it was not ok in Luca is because they specifically said it was a best friend relationship and not a crush relationship or the others are

Man...i think that was the first time i didn't skip the ad...that...that was good

Adams Family, deserves better. No truer line has been said 😁

[@zephyrchen]

Great sponsor read!

[@emmi8018]

I still think that the Addams family should of used stop animation or a more gothic style since I know stop animation can be a big thing on time, like picturing it in the same style as corpse bride seems so much better then what it is but I'm no expert in that area so I honestly got no clue,

[@patrickdrazen8411]

What a world; you make a video about 2 new movies yet I get massive feels from the clips of "Summer Wars:!!!

[@pooch7245]

I’ve been seeing ads for this movie IRL and it’s hilarious seeing these characters in the real world… you realize this movie is real and costed more than your own life is worth in advertising alone… what a world lol

[@Enter500]

I'm not a movie critic or anything like that, but other than how oddly entertaining you are (I'm not into reviews and stuff like that) I love writing stories and all of the points you make about how things don't work or how they can be improved or put together better is really interesting and I think about your videos and points whenever an idea pops into my head.

Also yeah I get you on this. Kids can have love as long as it is straight but nope they can't be gay. Biased bullshit.

[@MahouShoujo-Studios]

I honestly feel like as a society, we need to stop pressuring kids to be in a relationship, regardless of sexuality. "He's gonna be a heartbreaker when he grows up". "Looks like Daddy gonna have to watch out for boyfriends with her, huh?" It's just weird, just let your kid be a kid.

[@benjaminmadrigalperez9010]

@@MahouShoujo-Studios yes It's creepy when we do It so often. But also we have to remember that some of us had childhood crushes. Mine was when i had 8. And some of those crushes are with people of the same sex. We cannot act like they don't exist.

[@MahouShoujo-Studios]

@@benjaminmadrigalperez9010 I'm not against childhood crushes (I'm bi, so I've had quite a few for both genders), but we should let kids explore those relationships on their on without an invention or pressure. I 100% agree with you.

I honestly think child romances are good as little more than a joke. Friendship is understandable, but children are dumb. They are not gonna have a successful romance at that age regardless of sexuality. Edit: I said much more by accident. I meant little more. They are jokes and that's about it.

Do you think you can do a video about the Dark Crystal Series on Netflix. It looks up your ally, it's about fantasy.
