      The guy who did Thing, performed the doctor's detached hands on Angel.
      The girl scout is a young Mercedes McNab, aka Harmony.
      Raul Julia's favorite role. He loved to entertain kids and loved that kids started recognizing him on the street from these films.
      Angelica Huston didn't enjoy filming the movies as much because of her metal corset and special make up that gave her headaches. According to her, the only way that actress playing the grandmother git thrugh withall her makeup effects was to smoke a ton of pot in her trailer.
      The original TV Gomes was John Astin, Sean Astin's adoptive step-father.
      The cast chose Christina Ricci to make the case for Fester to really be Fester.

    it's clear to me that Gomez genuinely regards Tully as a friend and would probably just give him money if he asked ; money isn't a concern for the Addamses, they just have it -

    2:38 This storyline was created for the film. In the sitcom, Fester was actually Morticia’s uncle - but still considered an Addams - and Granny was Gomez’s mother. The family relationships tend to change between the different adaptations.
    This film has Gomez and Fester as brothers, while Granny is Morticia’s mother, but the 2019 animated film and its sequel have Gomez and Fester as brothers with Granny as their mother.

      & good eye lighting
      & demanded it in every role
      so this is both a demand from her & an homage

    This is making me think of something I sometimes reply to my young nieces and nephew when they say something is "weird". I like to answer that with statements such as "But I still like it." or "That is what makes it cool/interesting.". I am hoping to show that just because something is "weird" or "different" that it does not automatically make that thing "bad" or "wrong".

    20:44 My favourite Addams family is the 90s live action show The New Addams Family. Fun fact in the original script Fester was going to be revealed as a fraud but fit in the family so well they took him in. When the cast saw Christopher Lloyd in full make up they were convinced he had to be the real Fester. they got Christina Ricci to talk with the writer and director to change it to the real Fester with amnesia. They chose Christina Ricci because they thought it would be harder to say no to a child.

    I hadn't seen this film since I was a kid, but it was on my "need to rewatch list." Then I had a bad health day where I just needed something to distract me from the pain and keep my mental health afloat. I put this on and just watched it like 6? 7 times? It was all that got me through. Didnt get old and it made me love this film on a whole new level.

    The giant underground vault reminds me of a gag that was done on an old radio program (before television) called "The Jack Benny Show." The running gag was that Jack was such a penny pincher and did things on the cheap to a comedic length. In a few episodes, Jack would go to get some money from his vault, and it sounded like he had a giant vault with alligators, moats, and a guy named Joe who was the security guard. UA-cam has a huge amount of Jack Benny episodes. Anyway, I really like your reaction!

    The Addams family is really confusing because every iteration of it is different, like the most recent iteration is obviously Wednesday and she has some powers, like she clearly has abilities, so who knows exactly, I think in the original comic strip they were just like a weird Goth family and then by the TV show they were kind of like these Goth/supernatural adjacent people who had some level of supernatural powers that kind of kept them alive but they just also liked torturing each other, it's unclear if they can live a long time, like some people thought that they were vampires but I don't think they are but like a vampire they might have the ability to live for hundreds of years or something, it's really unclear and even with shows like Wednesday Wednesday kind of implies their witches, which I guess would also explain living for tons of years or the supernatural aspects of that, because like Edith I think her name is in Wednesday is a werewolf and there are other beings there I don't know if there are vampires at the Academy or not but there are witches I think so I don't know if Wednesday is supposed to actually be a witch so maybe the Addams family are witches and witches maybe their supernatural power is explained or maybe they're like which she adjacent like maybe they had which ancestors or something which give them the power to live for lots more years than normal people or give them the ability to come back from the dead or communicate with the dead sort of uncle Uncle unclear what their powers are, but at least on one side of the family I'm pretty sure someone had some level of powers I think it's Morticia side of the family, I'm not sure also I don't know if the grandmother is Gomez or Morticia's mother, also only in the recent adaptations is fester uncle being Gomez's father originally he was like Morticia Uncle I think or something, I think a lot of people were more connected to Morticia than to Gomez so I don't know it's like changed a lot, honestly I don't know what ton about the Addams family, I know there was another show that was similar with like different monsters like Frankenstein and things that people compare the Addams family to back in like the 60s or something, but the Addams family outlived that show and is more known, I think over the years the Addams family was changed to where it is now with Wednesday it's kind of implied that there are witches or witch adjacent, my personal head canon was always that they had some level of supernatural abilities that reconnected to vampires and witches and just like they were relatively regular people but they had ancestors who were like witches or vampires or something and so they carried that line down and so these were odd people who just had some level of supernatural abilities where they just couldn't really die so they were able to torture each other and they were able to do these weird wacky things because they had a higher level of protection then a regular human did when it came to things like super strength things like that, my other thought was maybe that they were kind of like zombies, we are like they would die and then be reanimated like reanimated corpses and so that's how they were able to like torture each other and do all these crazy things cause like they were technically dead, that I'm not sure about, but I feel like that would also make sense, like they're not zombies they're not vampires they're not witches but they are some sort of supernatural entity whether they are like kind of a reanimated corpse but not a zombie, I know that doesn't really make sense but the idea is that there is something supernatural about them throughout all the different adaptations over the years, and it's just whatever you want to believe, different people have put their different spins on it like with Wednesday having powers or with this adaptation, their palefaces do make you think of vampires but that's why I also think like corpses as well like instead of a weird zombie or riding corpse it's just like they have the ability to somehow reanimate themselves and come back to life so that way they're able to torture each other and things like thatlike who knows what they can and can't actually feel and it would explain their palefaces and things like that as well. But who knows.

      Some good theories here. Yeah, they have changed things here and there. Grandma in this one is Morticia’s mom.

      @@samandmariachannel oh okay, yeah I have a lot of different theories, but it's hard to know, have you reacted to Wednesday? I am not sure if you have, but like I said with all the different adaptations they have changed a lot of different things so it's kind of up to your own interpretation on what you want to believe, The new Wednesday show kind of implies that Morticia's family are descendants of witches and this movie also kind of implies that as well with Alia or whatever her name was who was burned at the stake after running naked in the town Square for being a witch, so I mean maybe Morticia side of the family are witches and Gomez side of the family or vampires or I don't know, I don't really know how to explain the whole thing to you, like I don't think that there are zombies or anything like that but I think you know there's some other type of being like not necessarily fully human like maybe the human versions of them died and then they came back and they just kind of Die again but they never like fully die, like when they were talking about digging up bodies from the cemetery, like there might be some sort of magic around the bodies to wear they can kind of come back after certain amount of time, also it's kind of implied that they can live for a long time, as it's sort of implied that The time period that Gomez and uncle Fester existed in when they were children and then when Fester went away to the Bermuda Triangle like 20 years ago or something but I don't know if fist was like a literal child and that woman raised him from like a teenager or something or if she just found the grown version of him because you can't really adopt someone Once they're over 18, so I'm a bit confused on that, but also kind of implied that they are youth was like a long time ago whereas we know that Wednesday and Pugsley are going to school and like the 90s or something like I think this film is set around the same time that it came out so Like it's kind of unclear how many years Morticia and Gomez have lived for, like I said it's sort of confusing and if they were like these sort of half alive half dead beings then it would kind of explain any weird occurrences like how they're able to like stab and electrocute each other and all these weird things with that actually killing each other because if they're like semi did semi alive, also with creatures like Thing just being a hand, also implies that like it's some sort of Frankenstein type situation where he's like a living hand so like the soul of his human counterpart went inside the body of one of his hands or something that's why it's just a hand I don't know there could be so many different reasons why the thing is just a hand, but I don't know it's a lot of weird goofy things like that where it just seems like it has something to do with death and like we and that kind of thing we're like they're reanimated corpses or like their half alive beings were like they died and then kind of came back, it's also kind of implied through people like this who when he got electrocuted by the lightning his memory came back and like there's so many weird electrocution things both in this film and the following film to do with fester sobased on the way they look especially the way uncle Fester he really seems like he is a reanimated corpse just the way his make up is done and everything like that especially around his eyes so I don't know I feel like that makes sense also like vampire thing but I don't really know because nobody knows to be honest.

    • @samandmariachannel
      @samandmariachannel  2 місяці тому

      Wow, I like your theories! 🖤🌹
      With regard to how old Fester was when he left, it seems he was a young adult. We see a painting of Fester early in the movie, and it has his birth year - 1947 - and if we think the movie is set around the same time it came out, he must be around 44. And Gomez is probably a couple of years younger than Fester, they didn't specify how much younger.
      Of course, it makes Fester around 19 when he left. Abigail Craven must've found him with amnesia and decided to use him, hence convincing Fester he's her son Gordon. So no actual adoption or anything happened - Maria
