Seems like a sequel is definitely in the bag considering how they ended on a cliffhanger + how the cast members have been responding to interview questions haha.
Jenna Ortega showed an impressive commitment through this role but the dance scene was easily one of the most lovable parts! This scene alone should book her for the next 5 years ❤️ 💗
0:13, Her just flailing her body back while maintaining her stoic expression and unwavering eye contact really sells this Wednesday as almost a machine or a zombie, precise with every wild movement, but also having an underlying sense of playfulness, as despite her demeanor, she isn't emotionless and can experience a desire for joy and fun like anyone else.
Knowing that she personally choreographer the dance based off early goth culture and that it was her first time preforming it in front of everyone. A lot of the reactions were real and it makes the scene so much more captivating. She even hid her face in an interview when talking about it because she was still embarrassed and feels it isn't good enough.
Ortega made Wednesday very believable and it's so refreshing how she truly portrayed Wednesday as a teen and as she said she didn't wish to 'rip off' the original wednesdays. I felt she did a great job and made Wednesday shine through the screen, I can definitely feel uncomfortable with Wednesday's actions but at the same time can't help to drawn to her
I thought she played Wednesday pretty good, but now you say she wanted to be different I am now scratching my head wondering where the differences are. lol

Every so often you watch a scene and you think "A TV/movie star was just born in front of us." This is one of those scenes. Jenna Ortega is going to be huge and have a very long, fruitful career. I'm excited to see what's in store.
Her moves absolutely take you by surprise the first time you see them because of how animated they are and how perfectly it suits her character. It also reminds us that Wednesday isn't just some socially awkward teen; she's full of character and couldn't give a rat's mummified ass if you understood her or not. To top that off, knowing that Jenna Ortega choreographed this herself over two sleepless nights just makes this so iconic.
@@joeyfalcon1793 And she still did a choreo, imo the dance could've been better, but 1st of all, she's not a dancer at all, 2nd of all, it's Wednesday Addams she's playing, not some high school typical blonde that does dance and cheer, and last of all, if you don't like it, don't say anything about it. Jenna did great with this, and absolutely owned this role. And don't come at me saying "YoU dOn'T kNoW dAnCe" because i do.
@@Landofnothing Im inclined to agree with you. However I think this is just that memorable and particular enough to be iconic. I haven't seen anything like this, have you?
This was exactly how I pictured a Wednesday dance to be, It even looked as if she might have learned some of those moves from Morticia. Jenna Ortega nailed this dance and absolutely captured Wednesday in this scene.
Jenna Ortega was made for the role of Wednesday Addams. Her expressiveness, movements, behavior and character development, Jenna deserves an Oscar. The whole series is phenomenal.
I think Wednesday is mocked/criticized because looks isn't spot-on. People wanted Wednesday to not have bangs because it's how it should be I think. Christina Ricci's character didn't have one in the 90s and I think the first movie didn't have it too.
What was so great about this scene is that Wednesday totally was purely herself and not only did no one judge her for it, she actually got into the spirit of her surroundings too. You had everyone having a good time including her and just happy to be there. It also probably is why no one blamed her for the blood rain afterwards too.
Jenna Ortega absolutely stole the spotlight as Wednesday Addams. She portrayed the character beautifully! I am a longtime and MASSIVE Tim Burton fanatic, and Wednesday was his grand return after his last few box office duds. I am obsessed with this first season, and I cannot wait for the what the second season has in store!!!
I wish they'd show the part where she asked Xavier to the dance. It was hilarious. Her subtle acting was great, she can act just with her eyes and subtle hints. It's like seeing her wear a poker face but you know when she's embarrassed or when she's happy or excited.
just taking a second to appreciate that most of the facial acting in this was in her eyes. she brought so much life to wednesday and this dance with just her eyes. what angle she was looking at, whether she seemed interested or disinterested in what she was looking at, how wide open her eyes were, where they were looking in relation to the camera..
The eyes are really what takes this to the next level. I just can't look away. She's not just captivating. I am left totally transfixed. If she was a vampire I'd be toast.
This scene is so spectacular and the actress really makes the essence of Wednesday shine. It's insane, I feel like this is exactly the way Wednesday would move and the moves were almost mesmerizing, like she was animated. such an amazing job overall
The real Wednesday Addams would not dance to this sort of music, if at all. She'd be too busy hatching her next diabolical plan or torturing her brother.
@@happilyevernever4289 If you don't like this take on Wednesday then just don't watch it lol no need to come and express your dislike on TH-cam. It was a genuinely good show tho I liked it and I haven't binged anything else on Netflix in a while
@@tokidokisimmer1750 I had to rewind it twice to make sure I saw what I thought I saw lol. I love that dance and spent wayyyy to many Wednesdays using a gif of it to announce to remind my mom it was Wednesday 🤣
She got moves and she even threw in a throwback to the original Wednesday. Jenna was able to keep that expression throughout the whole thing so that's impressive right there. I wonder if she burst into laughter when they got finished filming it.
She actually said she felt embarrassed about that coreography. She came up with it and felt really awkward after the performance. The guy told her it was actually impressive.
@@ddsbobos7873 why are you copy and pasting this everywhere nobody cares and it’s fictional, it’s for entertainment purposes it’s not encouraging anything. Besides, dancing in a fun and weird way isn’t “crazy”. People call everything pedophilia nowadays because how does that even make sense? She’s not dancing sensually, she’s not wearing anything revealing, and her character is underage but she isn’t. Maybe you’re the pedophile since you took it in that way.
Those who didn't understand, showing emotions while being emotionless or giving expressions while being expressionless is a mammoth task. Jenna did a phenomenal job in such a tough task. She has a bright future ahead. A real talent, no doubt. The micro expressions and attitude she showed to bring Wednesday to life is nothing short of genius. She will be remembered for this role for a long long time
@@bpswank429 Tf bro. First of all, in the movie they're minors, calm down. Second of all, the actor who plays Tyler is gay and married lol. Please delete your comment, it's really unnecessary... and honestly disturbing 💀
The camera work in this show was honestly the weakest part, such repetitive, boring, subject centered shots, which is pretty disappointing considering the sets and atmosphere are interesting
Exactly what I thought. It resembled something that could be in the cartoons, it was a cute and a strange dance, like Wednesday. I really got that Tim Burton feel.
I never got to finish this show, but just the fact that this many people find this moment iconic is wild. I don't think it matters how long we go from Wednesday, people will still find her the perfect actress for the role years down the line.
Honestly. This dance scene is iconic. The fact that Jenna choreographed it as well really is amazing! I hadn’t really heard of Jenna prior to watching Wednesday but damn that girl is talented!
Give Jenna all the awards for choreographing and performing this scene! Honestly she did an amazing job portraying Wednesday, it's like she was born for this role. Can't wait for season 2
@@euphoriaashoor7348 she did, and she said in the interview that she was embaraced by it. But it was actually a really good dance so she shouldn't be.
@@joeyfalcon1793 that's the point- wendsday only dance the way she likes to dance. If Jenna would have dance "normally" she wouldn't have been Wendsday, she would have been Morticia Addams. But Jenna danced like Wendsday really would have danced. If any other character would have done this dance it wouldn't have worked, this dance fit to Jenna's Wendsday and her only.
@@lili99941 it doesn’t matter. There are a million ways to be creepy and dance disturbingly with grace. This is stiff bs. I want you to pay attention and watch how this is NOT gonna get any nominations. It’s trash. And the academy will agree.
This is an absolute work of art. At 0.53 she does a version of the watusi that the original Wednesday Addams did on the TV show, and some of her arm movements earlier on are also from the same routine. She also does some of her father's tango moves. Not only did Ortega come up with moves that are 100 percent in character, she also did her feckin' homework so it's not just new stuff, it's a slight homage to the original. Big brain acting.
@@carlosfong5434 Luis Guzman wouldnt be my first pick of casting as Gomez, but i think it worked for this show. hes a great actor and they made the addams family hispanic in this version so it works. Also he didnt have many scenes, but yeah hes definitly not the most handsome gomez. lol
cannot stop watching this lol the dance seems so awkward and funny love it i love the facial expression of principal Weems in this scene she's looking at Wednesday like it's her own daughter and you can see how much proud she is
0:44 - 0:50 loved this scene so mucch. Cant believe she choreographed this dance few days before filming. Damn..... she even nailed the goth girl eye stare ... that can literally pierce people's heart with them P.S : go watch ' Wednesday dances with Bully Maguire ' XDD trusst me
I love how unsettling this dance is. Like Frankenstein's Monster she seems to piece parts of different dances together including incorporating her parents flair and style. My personal favourite bit is her tapping his shoulder and just looking at him slightly tilted. It's juat so smooth. A brilliant performance.
@@nanyunie Ricci Wednesday was easier to play IMO. A young child being dark can be brushed off as acting out for attention so it was easier for her to just do or say whatever she wanted. In Netflix show she is 16 there is more of a dynamic there. Mostly she is maturing as a person. She can't be that dark little girl anymore atleast not in the same way. I think Jenna did a great job.
So many little iconic tips of the hat packed into one minute of dance. I'm impressed by her transitions from one to another, linear to vertical movements, mechanical to flowing, changing pace and mood with playful and horror tones, while maintaining really steady and intense eye acting. Resetting her position by dropping back into the 'Wednesday walk' and then flipping back into the dance is hilarious, just for that little moment of awkwardness. But the best thing is the contrast with EVERY OTHER STUDENT. Look at the rest of the students dance in the background. Wednesday is BY FAR the most animated and fun thing at the party, which is in direct contrast to what you'd expect of Wednesday, yet all that fun is nods to Goth and horror dances. Fantastically thought out and executed. Kudos to Jenna and the team.
They were llke "We are going to make this so awkward that no one will be able to look" and then it was so well executed that we all watched it twice. Very odd and well done.
A) her ability to keep a straight face and the moves flowing together perfectly make this, and 2) the brief shoutout to the original Wednesday dance: heart eyes.
For sure she knew. Almost all tik tok trends are marketing campaigns. Influencers paid by some sponsor always initiate, and the others copy. Often even memes are marketing campaigns, like it's morbin' time
Except it isn't. It is not remotely hard to show zero emotion. She doesn't even do that with the subtle nuances that Christina Ricci did. This broad is not Wednesday.
she is so weird and cool. i cannot wrap my head around who she is. she is kinda one dimensional while at the same time so multidimensional. she made this show what it was.. it was resting on her shoulders and she carried the whole show so well 💜
She maintains the generally flat facial expressions, but with intensity. She doesn't fully give anything away, but there's hints. Absolutely phenomenal job.
Dude she killed this scene! I wish they would've made it a lil longer and showed more of them moves! They really picked the perfect person for this role, Jenna's acting is spot on.
She played this part exceptionally. I watched this nonstop I could not turn it off until it was over. Hoping there is a sequel. Well done to the cast members and Tim Burton
This dance scene is so artistic. I like how she instantly switches movements from the mechanical to the flowing and graceful. The "Mars Attacks!" walk was great too. This is some architectural grade choreography. Funny how a dance scene can be one of the best scenes in the series, which altogether is very good. Ortega killed it.
She choreographed the whole dance scene and in an interview said it clearly shows she knows nothing about dance or choreography. That’s why it’s so good.
Fits her personality perfectly. Glad she is not a carbon copy of her mom. She is uniquely her own. Happy that the writers kept with the Wednesday of the 90s movies and built on her.
I personally found it kind of cringy the way she had her vision..and nothing regarding acting but the scene of the victim getting killed while he was loading his camera and hook surprise it takes monster's pictures.. ha....no....
@@ango3185 What's cringy abt it? Lol She's weird and creepy and it's exactly how she would have a vision, in an weird and creepy way. Besides all of Tim Burton's movies are creepy and hilarious at the same time.
The sheriff is a bit too intense for me at times, but addams family has always been that way (really intense with archetypes of normies characters) so its fine
I like how the headteacher smiles when she sees Wednesday dancing, maybe it's just a smile of victory that this difficult girl is co operating and getting into the spirit of the school dance, but I think it's a nice moment, she genuinely wants Wednesday to fit in and be happy
Gwendoline Christie is so spectacular in the role! The way she balanced the emotions from her own history with Wednesday's parents as a teenager with her growing concern and protectiveness for Wednesday was just *chef's kiss*. Absolutely spectacular! Everyone who's been a teacher was able to empathize with her character's arc, and she created such a classically fascinating figure in Principal Weems, I wouldn't be surprised if she were nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Emmy. (I feel she should be!) She brought restrained, delicate acting on par with Bette Davis, with a statuesque, elegant presence like an updated, even taller Ingrid Bergman and finished it all off with a biting wit reminiscent of Rosalind Russell, all to a central figure around which a first season of a show could orbit. A principal must be the central executive of a school, and a high school principal must be emotionally present and available on the terms her students need her, especially for teenagers who aren't in the best place with their own parents. Somehow, Miss Christie managed to understand the assignment with such skill, such craft, that my daughter and I, watching her performance, were genuinely worried not just for Wednesday, but for all the students of Nevermore. When your audience is overcome to the point of needing the pause button, THAT is ACTING. I am so looking forward to Jenna Ortega's future career, knowing she's gotten to work with dramatic and comedic powerhouses like Miss Christie and learn from them as she develops her craft. And I would so like to see them work together again! Disney could remake 'The Trouble With Angels' on a small budget with Miss Christie in the Rosalind Russell role, Miss Ortega in the Hayley Mills role, and effectively 'keep the band together' as all the young women from 'Wednesday' and several more experienced actresses did a girls-school, non-supernatural story, mostly for the fun of it and the challenge of creating a period piece with modern sensibilities. Such a film might be an ideal choice for Miss Christina Ricci to direct, don't you think?
I love the fact that she's a little bit of Morticia (aloof in a regal kind of way, and sultry in a quiet, hypnotic way) and a little bit of Gomez (fiery, mad, passionate, Latin!) combined 😅❤️
Despite her stoic nature it actually made a lot of sense to add this dance number in. I think this scene alone was truly illustrative of her character - the free minded individualism expressed in the social setting of conformity.
Yep, hopefully now people will understand that "individualism" is about respecting your own self, but its not the same as being selfish. Wednesday is such a great character cuz she doesnt bother with other people's opinions on herself, she's just confident in who she is.
She’s definitely rocking this dance and acting. Her dance is hilarious but at the same time serious and also has this alluring hypnotizing gaze that just makes you not understand how to feel about this 😂
This is already going down as an iconic scene in TV history! The fact that she choreographed this herself is beyond impressive. AND finding out that she was sick while filming this, which later was discovered that she had COVID, just shows her amazing commitment to the role. I see a very bright future for her. Bravo!!! 🖤
What I love about this dance is you KNOW that the child of Morticia and Gomez Addams will know how to dance. They probably taught her to dance about an hour after she learned to walk, knowing those two. So she knows how to dance like a star, but still chooses to do the dance HER way, where she's not dancing with a partner, she's glaring AT a partner while she dances in her own unique way.
@@roadflame7772 they're not referring about Jenna Ortega herself, but they're talking about Wednesday. Morticia and Gomez always dance together, so they probably taught Wednesday how to dance
Nah theyd get distracted going “oh gomez remember dancing in the catacombs of italy?” Or some shit and Wednesday would be staring like “🧍🏻 again these two make it abt them” and the teacher watches them dance flawlessly and with a giant flare of love and is in total awe while Wednesday goes off to play mortician and cadaver w her brother or something
What I love so much about this dance is it's incredibly weird, but doesn't look awkward with Wednesday. She somehow makes it work. And it's also awesome because she's being herself and having fun and not caring if others think her dance is bizarre.
@@Kristobliss I was not talking about the actress. This was clearly an analysis of Wednesday. 🙂🙂 She is putting herself out there and trying to enjoy the party like the rest of the students, but is doing so in her own strange way. She's being herself and not letting the fact that others might find her dancing strange stop her from having her own kind of fun. Might want to read more clearly next time before replying! 😉😉
I think she perfectly embodied the character of Wednesday and fully delivered the performance. The dance in this video also suits the role of Wednesday so well.
and it fits the music perfectly. It's a weird dance, but on point for the song and a very Addams way of expressing yourself. Ortega was agood choice for Wednesday. Especially after Ricci.
Dont forget that the óriginal actress of Wendesday Addams from the Movies: Christina Ricci is also one of the castmembers of this series! Very clever hire from the Producers to get hér in, to help Jenna Ortega léarn her character!
She killed this! What an amazing performance. And the choice of The Cramps as the soundtrack is perfect. I can watch this over and over and still get chills.
The Cramps are the ultimate freak music- Wednesday really did this song justice! It's a great rendition of how she would have danced, right out of the 1960s show. I Love Ortegaaaaa, such a great portrayal!
I gotta say, Tim Burton really did a GREAT job putting all of Wednesday's special characteristics into one. She's an oddball in everyone's eye, but a truly charming one as well, stealing every attention at any moment. And, the best thing was, she refused to be anyone but herself. She remains true to who she was instead of becoming what everyone expected her to be. Also, she still changes into the better version of herself as she slowly widening her worldview.
I loved every single outfit Wednesday wore in this series! Everything she did was iconic and amazing!!!! The show did justice to Wednesday's character and Jenna Ortega is one of the best actresses in this generation!
The acting in this series was SOOO good, the micro-expressions and everything done by most of the characters (Wednesday, Enid, Thornhill, Gomez,) ALL SO good! Also, Wednesday is just the COOLEST.

Jenna Ortega absolutely stole the spotlight as Wednesday Addams. She portrayed the character beautifully! I am a longtime and MASSIVE Tim Burton fanatic, and Wednesday was his grand return after his last few box office duds. I am obsessed with this first season, and I cannot wait for the what the second season has in store!!!
I wish they'd show the part where she asked Xavier to the dance. It was hilarious. Her subtle acting was great, she can act just with her eyes and subtle hints. It's like seeing her wear a poker face but you know when she's embarrassed or when she's happy or excited.
True! That was incredible to watch. She embodied her so well
@@lesolohbathsheba6040 I agree.
@Jack Wrath if you think this is a good way to promote any of your stuff then you’re definitely never going to get recognized by big corporates
she hated it
I hate xavier
just taking a second to appreciate that most of the facial acting in this was in her eyes. she brought so much life to wednesday and this dance with just her eyes. what angle she was looking at, whether she seemed interested or disinterested in what she was looking at, how wide open her eyes were, where they were looking in relation to the camera..
The eyes are really what takes this to the next level. I just can't look away. She's not just captivating. I am left totally transfixed. If she was a vampire I'd be toast.
근데 이게 뭐임 대체
And no blinking!!!
safe to say i learned the whole dance
And the new cosplay for OnlyFans was born!
This scene is so spectacular and the actress really makes the essence of Wednesday shine. It's insane, I feel like this is exactly the way Wednesday would move and the moves were almost mesmerizing, like she was animated. such an amazing job overall
at 0:50 there is a reference to how Wednesday addams dances in the tv-series from the 60's, so quite literally how wednesday would move :)
The real Wednesday Addams would not dance to this sort of music, if at all. She'd be too busy hatching her next diabolical plan or torturing her brother.
@@happilyevernever4289 it's called charcter development
@@brothersbigbattles5220 no it's not lol. More like Character Assassination.

Totally Fosse Sweet Charity Rich Mans Frug!
She got moves and she even threw in a throwback to the original Wednesday. Jenna was able to keep that expression throughout the whole thing so that's impressive right there. I wonder if she burst into laughter when they got finished filming it.
That's a throwback from a whole 56 years ago!
She actually said she felt embarrassed about that coreography. She came up with it and felt really awkward after the performance. The guy told her it was actually impressive.
@@bachito1996 yeah she said Tim told her to do what she wanted with it.

A show that encourages young women to act crazy. Disgusting show from pedophile hollywood.
@@ddsbobos7873 why are you copy and pasting this everywhere nobody cares and it’s fictional, it’s for entertainment purposes it’s not encouraging anything. Besides, dancing in a fun and weird way isn’t “crazy”. People call everything pedophilia nowadays because how does that even make sense? She’s not dancing sensually, she’s not wearing anything revealing, and her character is underage but she isn’t. Maybe you’re the pedophile since you took it in that way.
Those who didn't understand, showing emotions while being emotionless or giving expressions while being expressionless is a mammoth task. Jenna did a phenomenal job in such a tough task. She has a bright future ahead. A real talent, no doubt. The micro expressions and attitude she showed to bring Wednesday to life is nothing short of genius. She will be remembered for this role for a long long time
0:59 star-making moment, absolutely breathtaking. The whole scene is iconic but this moment the way Jenna looks on camera is perfection 🖤

I got goosebumps from this scene - it was very Addams family-esque. Jenna proved that she's worthy of the role for this scene in and of itself.
It's only a matter of time and she will preform the Mamushka.
She is always meant to for this role. This girl has charisma. 🖤🖤
Yea, you jacked off didn't you?
Honestly this scene is the product of a good song choice, amazing acting, and great camera work blending seamlessly together.
The camera work in this show was honestly the weakest part, such repetitive, boring, subject centered shots, which is pretty disappointing considering the sets and atmosphere are interesting
Exactly what I thought. It resembled something that could be in the cartoons, it was a cute and a strange dance, like Wednesday. I really got that Tim Burton feel.
I think it's a nod and a tribute to the dance scene in Pulp Fiction
You forgot to praise the fact that JENNA CAME UP WITH THIS DANCE HERSELF
@@kingpure9771 the fact she put in the amount of effort doing research on actual indy and underground dance moves kind of takes the cake
I never got to finish this show, but just the fact that this many people find this moment iconic is wild. I don't think it matters how long we go from Wednesday, people will still find her the perfect actress for the role years down the line.

This is an absolute work of art. At 0.53 she does a version of the watusi that the original Wednesday Addams did on the TV show, and some of her arm movements earlier on are also from the same routine. She also does some of her father's tango moves. Not only did Ortega come up with moves that are 100 percent in character, she also did her feckin' homework so it's not just new stuff, it's a slight homage to the original. Big brain acting.
0:53
Actually It’s around 0:51 - 0:52 after she walk by Tyler.

Exactly it's like a frankenstein type dance ...several dances stitched together

Jenna Ortega is a 10/10 in this show. She is the perfect Wednesday Addams.
Christina Ricci has the same Wednesday Vibe but darker.
@@nanyunie Ricci Wednesday was easier to play IMO. A young child being dark can be brushed off as acting out for attention so it was easier for her to just do or say whatever she wanted. In Netflix show she is 16 there is more of a dynamic there. Mostly she is maturing as a person. She can't be that dark little girl anymore atleast not in the same way. I think Jenna did a great job.
Hahaha!!! No.
Actually it’s pretty much a destruction of the character and what Wednesday Addams was in the original show.
@@Go_away_loser Get over it, Boomer
So many little iconic tips of the hat packed into one minute of dance. I'm impressed by her transitions from one to another, linear to vertical movements, mechanical to flowing, changing pace and mood with playful and horror tones, while maintaining really steady and intense eye acting. Resetting her position by dropping back into the 'Wednesday walk' and then flipping back into the dance is hilarious, just for that little moment of awkwardness. But the best thing is the contrast with EVERY OTHER STUDENT. Look at the rest of the students dance in the background. Wednesday is BY FAR the most animated and fun thing at the party, which is in direct contrast to what you'd expect of Wednesday, yet all that fun is nods to Goth and horror dances. Fantastically thought out and executed. Kudos to Jenna and the team.
Reminded me of Backstreet Boys EVERYBODY .. but a slower grimmer version 😂
You summed it up brilliantly.
Like some tragic gothic mating ritual, Jenna Ortega completely slayed this shit.

I'm just fascinated on how she keeps a straight face while doing this dance. Great performance.
And she rarely blinks...that's why her eyes are so captivating.
Except it isn't. It is not remotely hard to show zero emotion. She doesn't even do that with the subtle nuances that Christina Ricci did. This broad is not Wednesday.
Mhm
And she doesn’t blink! It seems she did this at the beginning of the film and Burton told her not to blink for the rest of the season xD
Keeping a straight face is easy.
0:27 the look was not ordinary 😂
she is so weird and cool. i cannot wrap my head around who she is. she is kinda one dimensional while at the same time so multidimensional. she made this show what it was.. it was resting on her shoulders and she carried the whole show so well 💜
She maintains the generally flat facial expressions, but with intensity. She doesn't fully give anything away, but there's hints. Absolutely phenomenal job.
Well it’s her show of course she carried it. that’s how it should be.
Jenna Ortega is very good channeling the spirit of Wednesday Addams. More seasons please Netflix!
Yup just can't get enough of Wednesday she is a total badass .... This show needs 2 - 3 more seasons atleast

Bravo to everyone.
I personally found it kind of cringy the way she had her vision..and nothing regarding acting but the scene of the victim getting killed while he was loading his camera and hook surprise it takes monster's pictures.. ha....no....
I guess yeah, but it’s one of those things that it wouldn’t make sense without it the vision
@@rosiewolf4955 I mean even students do not make those kind of obvious scene...so from a director such as mister Burton....I wad like no way man
@@ango3185 What's cringy abt it? Lol She's weird and creepy and it's exactly how she would have a vision, in an weird and creepy way. Besides all of Tim Burton's movies are creepy and hilarious at the same time.
The sheriff is a bit too intense for me at times, but addams family has always been that way (really intense with archetypes of normies characters) so its fine
I need this dance in my life. 🤘 Who else would love to see more of Wednesday's moves in season 2? 🖤
That dance sequence will become as iconic as John and Uma in Pulp Fiction! It is an instant classic! Love the 60s beatnik style!
And that dance was inspired by bande à part by Godard!
My thoughts exactly when i saw this too
Was JUST thinking that 😎
I like how the headteacher smiles when she sees Wednesday dancing, maybe it's just a smile of victory that this difficult girl is co operating and getting into the spirit of the school dance, but I think it's a nice moment, she genuinely wants Wednesday to fit in and be happy
Gwendoline Christie is so spectacular in the role! The way she balanced the emotions from her own history with Wednesday's parents as a teenager with her growing concern and protectiveness for Wednesday was just *chef's kiss*. Absolutely spectacular! Everyone who's been a teacher was able to empathize with her character's arc, and she created such a classically fascinating figure in Principal Weems, I wouldn't be surprised if she were nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Emmy. (I feel she should be!) She brought restrained, delicate acting on par with Bette Davis, with a statuesque, elegant presence like an updated, even taller Ingrid Bergman and finished it all off with a biting wit reminiscent of Rosalind Russell, all to a central figure around which a first season of a show could orbit. A principal must be the central executive of a school, and a high school principal must be emotionally present and available on the terms her students need her, especially for teenagers who aren't in the best place with their own parents. Somehow, Miss Christie managed to understand the assignment with such skill, such craft, that my daughter and I, watching her performance, were genuinely worried not just for Wednesday, but for all the students of Nevermore. When your audience is overcome to the point of needing the pause button, THAT is ACTING.
I am so looking forward to Jenna Ortega's future career, knowing she's gotten to work with dramatic and comedic powerhouses like Miss Christie and learn from them as she develops her craft. And I would so like to see them work together again! Disney could remake 'The Trouble With Angels' on a small budget with Miss Christie in the Rosalind Russell role, Miss Ortega in the Hayley Mills role, and effectively 'keep the band together' as all the young women from 'Wednesday' and several more experienced actresses did a girls-school, non-supernatural story, mostly for the fun of it and the challenge of creating a period piece with modern sensibilities. Such a film might be an ideal choice for Miss Christina Ricci to direct, don't you think?
I hope they revive her somehow
Same here😅😀❤️
My take was that she can't help but be impressed by Wednesdays individuality and she respects her always doing things her way
I love the fact that she's a little bit of Morticia (aloof in a regal kind of way, and sultry in a quiet, hypnotic way) and a little bit of Gomez (fiery, mad, passionate, Latin!) combined 😅❤️
I love the way she did this dance!❤❤❤
Despite her stoic nature it actually made a lot of sense to add this dance number in. I think this scene alone was truly illustrative of her character - the free minded individualism expressed in the social setting of conformity.
Yep, hopefully now people will understand that "individualism" is about respecting your own self, but its not the same as being selfish. Wednesday is such a great character cuz she doesnt bother with other people's opinions on herself, she's just confident in who she is.
bruh she just got stroke

What I love about this dance is you KNOW that the child of Morticia and Gomez Addams will know how to dance. They probably taught her to dance about an hour after she learned to walk, knowing those two. So she knows how to dance like a star, but still chooses to do the dance HER way, where she's not dancing with a partner, she's glaring AT a partner while she dances in her own unique way.
Yes i thought the same
She actually cherographed this herself
@@roadflame7772 they're not referring about Jenna Ortega herself, but they're talking about Wednesday. Morticia and Gomez always dance together, so they probably taught Wednesday how to dance
They also taught her to fence, fear nothing and be spooky and cooky.
Nah theyd get distracted going “oh gomez remember dancing in the catacombs of italy?” Or some shit and Wednesday would be staring like “🧍🏻 again these two make it abt them” and the teacher watches them dance flawlessly and with a giant flare of love and is in total awe while Wednesday goes off to play mortician and cadaver w her brother or something
What I love so much about this dance is it's incredibly weird, but doesn't look awkward with Wednesday. She somehow makes it work. And it's also awesome because she's being herself and having fun and not caring if others think her dance is bizarre.
She really owns it. People can smell nervousness, and she had none to give 💪
Well it helps that Ortega is clearly very graceful by nature.
being herself? she's literally acting you donut!
@@Kristobliss I was not talking about the actress. This was clearly an analysis of Wednesday. 🙂🙂 She is putting herself out there and trying to enjoy the party like the rest of the students, but is doing so in her own strange way.

@@amelia_unearthed What you said by definition is an oxymoron might want to word your sentences a little better Ms. Passive Aggressive. 😉
I think she perfectly embodied the character of Wednesday and fully delivered the performance. The dance in this video also suits the role of Wednesday so well.
and it fits the music perfectly. It's a weird dance, but on point for the song and a very Addams way of expressing yourself. Ortega was agood choice for Wednesday. Especially after Ricci.
I wholeheartedly agree 💯 now no one else can be Wednesday lol😅
Dont forget that the óriginal actress of Wendesday Addams from the Movies: Christina Ricci is also one of the castmembers of this series!

I gotta say, Tim Burton really did a GREAT job putting all of Wednesday's special characteristics into one. She's an oddball in everyone's eye, but a truly charming one as well, stealing every attention at any moment. And, the best thing was, she refused to be anyone but herself. She remains true to who she was instead of becoming what everyone expected her to be. Also, she still changes into the better version of herself as she slowly widening her worldview.
I loved every single outfit Wednesday wore in this series! Everything she did was iconic and amazing!!!! The show did justice to Wednesday's character and Jenna Ortega is one of the best actresses in this generation!
