Morticia and Gomez are such COUPLE GOALS in **The Addams Family (1991)**!!!

[@stuffwithsoph8264]

Mortica and Gomez being in love aligns with the original commentary the original creator was aiming at with the comics. The Addams were supposed to be the opposite to the average American family, weird, gothic, but loving and happy! Not trapped in conformity and a miserable nuclear dynamic

[@christopherb501]

I've heard it argued that, in the binary of 60s spooky shows of 'Addams Family vs. Munsters', Addams is superior simply because the title family is proud to be themselves, whereas the Munsters take a more Burton-esque approach in being _apologetically_ weird, and actually WANT to fit in. Haven't watched the 60s shows, but sounds plausible enough.

[@shteve119]

In the show, Gomez usually gets really lucky with investments that make him wealthy. He bought a swamp one time and accidentally found tons of oil in it. And they just have a bunch of businesses around the globe, like a tombstone factory, a uranium mine, etc.

[@GrimThe13]

that and he did start with a pirates treasure from one of his ancestors

[@whovianhistorybuff]

I'd say a tombstone company might be lucrative if not steady, unless someone discovers the secret of immortality tombstones will always be in demand.

[@Ofnir_Grabacr_]

Gomez Addams is one of the top 10 wealthiest fictional characters in all of literature, right up there with Scrooge and Bruce Wayne. Some of that money was indeed family money, but most of it came from Gomez’s investments. Gomez Addams is a financial genius, everything he touches turns to gold, and he always makes the oddest investments. He once bought a swamp that no one wanted and discovered an untapped oil reservoir. He owns a crocodile farm he named Crocodiles Unlimited. That’s where the wealth comes from.

[@agenttheater5]

15:56 Well in the 60s tv series Gomez was initially against sending them to school because "why have children only to get rid of them" and when pointed out that while 6 year old Wednesday can already breed thoroughbred spider s (she's a bit more of a perky goth in the tv show but still very memorable, she's also the younger sibling) at school she'd learn how to read Gomez pointed out "What is there for a 6 year old to read?" "Well someday she'll be 26" "See you then". Ultimately though Morticia felt it would be better if the children were given the chance to play with other children their age. They nearly pulled them out of school after 1 day after they found out that the school was encouraging violence by giving the children storybooks where knights in shining armour kill "poor defenceless dragons"

If a show or movie has that stupid, "Married couple that hates each other for no reason other than they were married for a long time" I immediately hate it, because divorce is a thing people, that relationship is gone...sorry his turned into a rant but I just hate that because who wants to watch a straight married couple bicker and stay together for the whole movie and then apologize to each other like that's gonna solve everything we've seen...

Pretty sure the Addams have so much money is because of how eclectic and devoted the family is to each other. Despite being unwanted in high social circles, they still participate in them. They also don't really give a shit about money, so a lot of it are from risky investments that they lucked out on (stocks and bonds), unwanted property deeds that became lucrative all over the world, gold bullion in the vault (some of the Addams clan used to be pirates, swindlers, gamblers etc), and possibly ancient bribes and blackmail hoping to drive them out from countries all over the world. The fact that their family is still huge in number (they seem pretty indestructible for human standards) and strongly attached to the family means more money will come in from every weirdo all over the glove that identifies as an Addams for decades to come.

So much of this delves into the original material, the original magazine cartoons and the TV series development. All of the characters had a particular look. Gomez in the cartoons was squatter and creepier-looking, but Raul was perfect because of his eyes. Even many of the original cartoon jokes wound up in this script ("Are you happy, darling?" "Yes. Yes, completely!") No explanation where their wealth came from, but Gomez, whose development is largely thanks to actor John Astin (Sean Astin's step-dad) was an active businessman, constantly reading stocks and throwing around money. He established Gomez as super passionate, kissing his wife's arm every time she spoke French, and being deeply in love with his wife. The result was the most openly physically romantic couple on TV at the time (not as much heavy breathing though). Many of their eccentricities here were present in the TV series. Morticia clipped the tops off roses, in between feeding meat to her man-eating plants. Gomez was an active swordsman and loved to crash his toy trains. Fester often entertained the children by putting light bulbs in his mouth. Grandmama flung knives. Lurch was a more important character in the TV series, due to the actor Ted Cassidy. His groaning is iconic. One of the most famous episodes includes a scene with little Wednesday trying to teach Lurch how to dance. Some backstory is different, but I'm not sure if it was completely consistent in the TV series anyway. In many episodes, Uncle Fester seems to be the children's uncle, but in other episodes he's Morticia's uncle.

[@yup_im_tiff]

Mortician & Gomez are the best part of the movie

[@JH-cs5py]

The Addams family sets an unreasonable standard for family unity. And I'm not saying that to be obtuse, I really think they set a standard that is tough to follow because they are immortal, therefor making it impossible for them to truly connect with the community they live in. Tish and Gomez love each other to death, yeah, but think about the family dynamic in general. They have almost no political association outside of their own family values (rim-shot), no axe to grind with any person or group or entity. They are obscenely wealthy and therefore want for nothing, beyond engaging with each other in some kind of edgy discourse or activity. Even the kids get along in a way that is enviable. They don't hate or even really dislike each other...how could they, when they are both functionally un-killable? The Addams are undying wealthy indifference personified. They can't related to (and often irritate) their neighbors, they seem strange and almost alien to those who encounter them directly and they are immune to most forms of antagonism. They CAN expand their influence by expanding their family and inviting new members to join (such as Margaret becoming Cousin It's wife and starting a family with him) but they remain apart. They like it that way, but since they cannot die and rarely suffer from any permanent financial/social setback, they remain the gleeful, undaunted, implacable "other" that makes all other families seem insincere and vapid by comparison. As fun as it is to watch them get the better of those we clearly find inferior, single minded and jealous of their happiness, in reality, if we knew a family like the Addams in real life, we'd probably secretly hate them. It's a fun little escapist fantasy thought. 😅 I can't wait for the pageant scene from the second film. Also what do you think about "Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey"? Another good film with Thanksgiving vibes. Great Vid!

There is never not a good time to watch anything Addams Family related

In the 1960's TV show, Fester was Morticia's uncle and Grandmama was Gomez's mother. Also, Pugsley was older than Wednesday.

09:50 Yes she is. You should see the original Morticia played by Carolyn Jones. Equally as beautiful and hilarious.

Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes Gomez Addams is another character held high in my trans-masc heart

For the Money of addams family, it's explained by many things : 1- We know gomez got a salt mine, buzzard farm, tombstone factory & stock in insurance company. Others family members are shown to be way less poor except cousin itt that we knew very little about. Gomez share a part of his stock with Uncle feister to protect him from bein poor. Morticia is native of a noble family which help her

& he was a defense lawyer, but all his clients went to prison & he bought a swamp that oil was discovered in

[@nathantower5565]

It's weird that Gomez is the only other guy who I've seen play with trains in media besides Bobby from sopranos. It's unrealistic that the Adams hate presidents. No one's got more blood on their hands than presidents.
