Addams Family Values

Posted: 1/23/05 at 8:47pm

It's on AMC right now... I am so psyched (see my icon)

Wednesday and Pugsley are going into the "Harmony Hut"...

I can't wait to hear Debbie say "MAL-I-BU Barbie" when explaining how her parents mistreated her.

LOL

This was my favorite movie in 1994. The whole thing is just hilariously written. How I mourned when my Addams Family love parade was rained upon by the death of Raul Julia that same year!

The best scene is the one where the camp misfits stage a riot against all the blonde burbies. Joan Cusack was a real find, too.

Truly one of the best film sequels of all time. Second only to Grease 2.

Gomez: He has my father's eyes.
Morticia: Gomez, take those out of his mouth.
I was so obsessed with this movie when I was in Middle School. I need to buy it on DVD.

Edith 'Little Edie' Bouvier Beale: Do you think my costume looked all right for Brooks? I think he was a little amazed.

LOVE this movie. I didn't know a sequel could be this much better than the original!

I first saw this movie when I was 9, had the video, and watched it constantly until I was about 12. I went back and watched it 2 years ago and was shocked at the amount of jokes that went over my head.

Gomez: I have seen the unholy maggots which feast in the dark recesses of the human soul!
Morticia: They're at camp.

It is those kind of lines that make me LOVE this movie!

Pugsley: Our parents are having a baby too.
Wednesday: They had sex.

Morticia: You have gone too far. You have married Fester, you have destroyed his spirit, you have taken him from us. All that I could forgive. But Debbie... pastels?

This is one rare dark comedy that gets the tone just right. The original was another one.

My favorite line: "Guess what they got me? MALIBU Barbie! That's not what I wanted. That's not who I was. I was a ballerina: Graceful, delicate! That had to go...".

Good stuff.

Amanda: Why are you dressed like somebody died?
Wednesday: Wait.

Morticia and Wednesday just totally made this movie for me with all their little responses... hehe

Nobody's mentioned Wednesday's best line when they do the lifesaving exercise.

Annoying Girl: I'll be the victim!
Wednesday: All your life.

Omigosh, Beaverhausen! That is so cool.

(I just had a mental image of Karen Walker and Morticia Addams meeting. Would that be a scream or what!)

Harriet Harris is also in the movie, but has a very small part. She is the mother of the snobby girl, Amanda, and she gets pied in the face or something. I always find it interesting when I come across Broadway actors/actresses in movies.
