[@Badartistwithcuteocs]

What annoys me about the second film especially is, even if Wednesday wasn't a biological Addams, she wouldn't care. Not just because that's just her character, but because most of the family isn't even related lore wise. The REASON there's so many distant relatives beyond reason is because they take in weird people who don't fit in elsewhere. That is literally why they all called the ADDAMS. They ADD weird people to their family. If Wednesday WAS adopted, it'd make no sense that she'd care, because most of her family members, such as the VERY CHARACTER SHE TAKES ADVICE FROM IN THE FILM, aren't biologically related to her anyway! Like- the filmmakers could at least pretend to care about the actual lore of the story they're portraying

[@tahjkuemmerle]

Okay I like what you're saying, but I need to pull a 🤓 here. Their name has nothing to do with adding eclectic people to their family. The original series of illustrations never gave the family a proper name, so from the original show onward they were named after the original illustrator, Charles Addams.

[@Badartistwithcuteocs]

@tahjkuemmerle oh so that was just a nice coincidence then! I didn't know that part! I just assumed they were called that BECAUSE they took in eccentric people, but I guess that detail just worked out nicely

@otaking3582 yeah, I know, someone already pointed that out before you. I didn't make this up, but I wasn't aware of that part before the other person said, so I had just assumed. I don't know if it was coincidence or someone came up with the detail later due to the name, but there's no need to be rude about it. Be respectful please

[@philosofa6767]

My biggest beef with this movie is, that they don't understand the Addams Family and what they are about. They aren't horror people, they are people who live, breathe and love the scary, the morbid and the dark. The darkness is the same for them as the sun for normal people. And they are a loving and supporting family. The kids 'want' to go to camp/become scouts? - "Ah sure.. my little black maggots, if you want, we'll get you there" The fact, that they are 'holding the kids hostage in their home, because other people are scary', that's NOT an Addams thing. They would either love the confrontation or would be completely oblivious, that they are the odd ones out. And they wouldn't limit their children! Their thing was, that they are the polar opposite of the normal suburban family: • Loving father and devoted husband, who adores his wife • Loving mother, who doesn't resent her husband and is able to do more with her life, than being just a mother • Children who aren't being controlled and can express themselves • Older Familymember, who are more than just free childcare • Servants who are like family • A dark/morbid aestethic • A family history of rebels, pirats, revolutionaries, witches etc. (On contrary to the squeaky clean family histories of normal suburban families)

The whole plotline with wednesday being potentially swapped at birth is so dumb, because when you see her next to moritcia she literally looks like a baby sized morticia. Like at least pugsley looks different enough, yet kinda similar to the dad that you could say "hey maybe hes not actually our son". Although even if either child wasnt their, realistically with how the entire family is, they probably wouldnt care. They have all these uncles and aunts that have no resemblance to each other at all, and might not even be blood related, yet the character who looks the most like another character in a family was picked for that plotline.

[@namecomingsoon9517]

Remember in the sequel of the original movies when the ending had Festers wife hook up the family to electric chairs laughing about how she is gonna kill them and they all laugh and welcome her into the family as they treat murder as a sign of love.

One of the dimensions that is lost about the original Adams family that isn't as clear to modern demographics is that a lot of its original commentary is a genuinely biting critique of American treatment of immigrants. The mistake in trying to adapt this as some kind of quirky gothic/horror aesthetic is that it loses a ton of the original heart. The appeal to the lowest possible denominator almost inherently requires them to remove this element because it would require some sense of genuine discrimination, perseverance, and overcoming underlying the jokes.

[@boanoah6362]

@@shirleymaemattthews4862 Wednesday is a weird show, it's not that they're horrible depictions but rather that they're more 'normalized'. The Addams are still VERY wealthy but with how little screentime they get it's hard to actually gauge them, Pugsley for example is a sweet boy with a love for explosives, but you get a single episode even vaguely acknowledging it. Wednesday is a bright and self-assured child still but in a bad way since she's bright but also useless, like the majority of the show is just Wednesday stumbling into things and getting her ass kicked. So Wednesday is closer but also way off, like there's no way a town of people would still idolize and worship some random witch burning pilgrim in the modern day. Especially not when witches and monsters aren't some giant secret, they're just people with some weird abilities who have smart phones and go on twitter.

Funny enough it wasn't horrible. Sure the animation was too "Cutesy" for the Addams family imo, but it could of worked. It was at least more true to character than the third I believe Live action movie Addams Family Reunion. Not even Tim Curry could save that movie. Honestly the biggest flaw I have with these movies is the plot. Highschool drama and teen angst for the first movie, and more teen angst with Wednesday thinking she's not an Addams in the second. Which imo is perhaps the biggest flaw. For the most part the orginal comics, cartoons and even movies mostly focused on the Family as a whole. More about their lives and the reactions of those around them than anything else. These new movies almost made them Wednesday centered, and almost ignored the rest the family.

The first movie is only significant to me because it was the first film I watched alone in theaters without my family or parents. I was also mid-recovery with my eating disorder and struggling with chronic pain, so going anywhere outside of my house and school was significant. Obviously, this has nothing to do with the movie itself. But going to it was a big accomplishment for me.

When me and my cousin went to go see it the fire alarm got pulled and we had to leave So they gave us a refund and said we could go back and rewatch the movie whenever We never did

Well..at least Tim Burton got to work on WEDNESDAY at least 😊

@shirleymaemattthews4862 at least! I like the show, but dang it, now I want a stop motion one too T-T

Who is this movie even for? Not Addams fans, that's for sure. I doubt it's for millennial parents to show to their kids because no sane fan would even tolerate this movie and its ugly designs. It's just SO ugly, not only the characters but the colors and sets too. They're not boring and they're not dead, they're the gothic version of a "nuclear family". They aren't devoid of color and excitement and love, they're just creepy and unorthodox. Nobody wants to stare at the color gray for 1.5 hours, especially without an interesting plot.

I wish the movies were in 2D it would open up so many opportunities for it to be more stylized with varied characters or at least it being hybrid animation like the miles morales spider man animated movies

RIP Gilbert Godfreid, wherever i hear you're voice im reminded of how you shaped my childhood in CyberChase

I honestly don’t mind this movie, I honestly think its sequel is worse. But I do agree that the designs for the citizens are horrifying and out of place.

Studios really need to let old franchises rest sometimes, this is just unnecessary ):

I just realized the villain defeat is just gideons defeat from gravity falls but if it was terrible and lifeless

[@BradBrown31]

I'm blind so can't talk about animation but I really don't like morticias voice actor, she just doesn't give that playful loving and yet deadly when needed vibe.

[@hawktalon7890]

All of the voice actors are fairly bland, it's not fun at all.

[@dwaynethefrog]

i had to slow down the playback speed on that scene of morticia knitting like if you can't animate knitting don't put it in the film

[@hawktalon7890]

I feel the same way with people playing instruments in animated movies.

6:18 given the Mario movie, illumination can put out some pretty decent stuff when... properly incentivized, I guess is the best way to put it. Someone on the team who actually wants a quality product not just something passible that will put butts in seats, you know? So this is all very disappointing.

[@MoodleDaNoodle]

Nah why did the judge in the second movie remind me of the villain from Cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2 ☠️

[@meltedcrystal5945]

it sucks that the cast is so great. I love Oscar Isaac, and I really like his portrayal of Gomez, but I wish it was used for a much better movie. The more campy jokes, like Morticia using her parents ashes as makeup, were funny too, but everything else fell flat for me

This movie was such a waste of an amazing cast. Like, if you told me that Oscar Isaac and Charlize Theron were gonna play Gomez and Morticia Addams in an Addams Family reboot, my ass whould've been SEATED in that movie theaters because I thought they were making new live action Addams Family movies that had the same spirit as the movies from the 90s.

You know, there's always the 1992 cartoon. It's toned down, sure. But it's an adaptation that actually fits spirit of the original comics and TV sitcom.

[@caydeofspaydes]

Oh also: I go on yearly trips to Niagara Falls. There are so many missed gags they could’ve done. Clifton Hill alone has not one, not two, but THREE haunted house attractions. There’s the shipwreck too that is showing signs of dislodging too, and the history of people going over the falls in a barrel. It’s supposed to be a passing scene with no further thought into it but if they decided to set more of a scene there there’s so much they could’ve done there alone.

OKAY! I HAVE A QUESTION! Does morticia have a different last name Or was the wedding an incest thing.

In the 60's TV series I'm pretty sure her maiden name was Morticia Frump. So it's probably the same.
