"how does gomez addams have a million dollars?" Insane, batshit investments. It's canon that he makes a tremendous amount of money on crocodile farms, abandoned buildings, etc. Pretty much anything that SHOULDN'T return on investment, in fact, does so spectacularly if Gomez is involved. He's supposedly in the top 10 wealthiest characters in fiction, behind Scrooge McDuck.
@@daniellebyford710 Well the Addams ancestors, I think in one of the series is even referenced as one of the Addams ancestors was an English pirate and a double spy of sorts…
I mean, yeah, they were meant to be a parody or mock of the basic family sitcoms were everybody hates eachother and the "uhg i hate my wife!" jokes, so they ended up being a very passionate and over all healty marriage, and a communicative family
This family is goals. Gomez and Morticia are still madly in love, they care about their family, they fully support their children, they're financially well-off, and just all kinds of their own brand of wonderful. 🥰 Oh, and they even give to charity!
The Addams family are a parody of the average sitcom family (who try to appear the perfect family while they secretly hate each other), with the catch being they actually adore each other. Gomez and Morticia truly and absolutely love each other and are supportive and caring of their kids, and you can really get the sense that despite their unusual activities, Wednesday and Pugsly do love each other.
The Bermuda Triangle is an area between Florida, Puerto Rico and Bermuda, got a reputation for ships and airplanes disappearing without a trace.. Also, Angelica Huston and Christina Ricci absolutely killed it in this amazing movie!
It is also a hoax and pretty easily debunked (there are many good Yt videos on the topic) But that did not stop it from being one of the best known late 20th century urban myths (along with Nostradamus, Area 51, crop circles, Loch Ness monster, yetis etc.) and being referenced in tons of shows
@@whade62000 yes cause TH-cam knows all. Lol! You’re right though. I think people had misfortunes around a volatile area and so people put a supernatural tag on it
@@whade62000 Yeah, the accidents that happened there were pretty much the same compared to accidents that happened in other waters and a decent amount of the boat ones were because of inexperienced sailors
Can't wait for your reaction to the sequel! Also side note, Fester lighting the light bulb in his mouth is actually one of his most famous abilities. He does it in the 1960s series as well.
this movie and family values were my favourites as a kid! i never liked the way that families were portrayed so unattainably perfect. I always thought that no matter how weird i was i would always have a place with the addams family :) also i knew i shouldn't do any of the dangerous shit they did in the movie but i still loved seeing the creativity.
As a kid that kinda grew up in a not so nice house hold it was refreshing to see something other than the cookie cutter life is rainbows in the technicolor sense. Idk but deff. Check out family values oi!
the morticia makeup, with just the center of her face/eyes in the light, formed the aesthetics and beauty ideals of SO MANY pre-teen girls, myself included lol
I've always felt weird /outcast even as a kid so I felt that I can relate to them in some way. I love the Adams Family so anything Adams Family I'm into. I even watched the Craft when I was kid and I wasn't suppose to, but I still watched it lol 🖤
I love this movie. The cast is perfect. You should absolutely watch the sequel, "Addams Family Values". I actually like it more then the first one. Love them both. Addams
You MUST watch the sequel here!! The Addams Family movies are so important to those who don’t fit in to happy go lucky bullshit of “normal” people. They accept others and enjoy the base emotions that were so antithetical to whatever decade the show or movie is set in. Most kids do go through a homicidal phase, these movies let me know it wasn’t strange. More media should acknowledge it and show healthy outlets for such urges. Like that sweet sword fight with actual battle damage and blood! That was amazing!!
I watched this movie as a kid in the 90s and I don't remember thinking anything was off. I loved how weird it was then (as I do now) and I thought the family was interesting. They all seemed to love each other in their own way. Especially Morticia and Gomez. I didn't think twice about how... sexual they were. Haha. I just thought they loved each other very, very much. I also thought they were great parents. They accepted Pugsley and Wednesday for who they were and encouraged them. And yes! Watch the second one.
This is based on the TV series from the 1960's(which is amazing) which was based on a series of single panel cartoons, originally released in the New Yorker, created by Charles Addams in the 1930's. So it's been around for almost 100 years! Worth your time to check out both the comics and the tv series!
I grew up watching reruns of the 60s television show and laughed my ass off! John Astin and Carolyn Jones were so damn good (and she was absolutely gorgeous, to boot). If you get a chance, I'd highly recommend giving the series a shot. As far as the movies go, Raul Julia definitely left his mark on the character of Gomez and Christina Ricci was absolutely marvelous as Wednesday! Love the Addams Family.
Same here. As a small child I watched the animated show, then these movies when they were released (the second one really but still) and then reruns of the original show as a teenager. I just love them.
I only found the tv show in the last few years, but I actually like it better than the movies! (Aside from the random racist and a few sexist moments, of course) In both, I love how devoted and loving Morticia and Gomez are. They are so perfect. And the fact that John Astin was the one who wanted to have Gomez be madly in love with Morticia and act like it, makes it even better!
Yaaasssss!! Love that you finally got to experience this! Such a classic. And I am certainly in favor of you watching Addams Family Values, but I suggest watching it for/in honor of Thanksgiving. There’s a great Turkey Day tie-in with that one. PS, great job, and please finish Fear Street!!
get you a romance like gomez and morticia: the ULTIMATE relationship goals. you absolutely have to watch addams family values. two words.... MALIBU BARBIE.
How did we react as children to this movie? I saw it years after it first came out but went as Wednesday Addams at 7 years old for Halloween, both neighborhood trick-or-treat and school. We STANNED.
There is a theory that there is like a curse or opposite of a curse where an Adams family member can't harm one another on purpose... Like they try, but their efforts don't succeed for this reason or that reason... I haven't looked much into it, but in Adams Family Values you can kind of see what I am talking about with the baby...
As a kid, who saw this at 4, it was really affective at getting me interested in the occult. While the violence and stuff was obviously played up for laughs, I loved how strange and weird the family was and how they just embraced who they were. But my favorite thing in the movie was Morticia’s and Gomez’s relationship. As a hopeless romantic who hates how romance is often portrayed, I loved how these two fed off each other and seemed to really enjoy being together.
Addams. The Addams Family is based on New Yorker cartoons done starting in the 1930s and ending in the 1980s by Charles Addams. He also wrote some books about them. It also had 3 seasons as a TV series in the early 60s, and is still in syndication today.
As a kid when I first watched this, I thought it was so cool the different things the Addams' set up in order to get to the family vault. Very funny and elaborate security system. Also, the sword fight at the play freaked me out ha ha.
in the 60s series of Addams Family Fester had the ability to light light bulbs in his mouth so it was just something his character could do he also continuously electrocuted himself to charge up his trick, the Lightning from the book brings back his memories and recharges him. Fester had lost his memories in the Bermuda Triangle after getting struck by lightning and tangling in a fishing net
I’m here to see you watching Angelica being the queen she be. Also am I the first one to say to this beautiful human that this movie was made for their enjoyment? No? Good. Honey this movie has been waiting for you.
Your question of how they have all that money is, Gomez makes investments as well as having many different businesses around the world. A crocodile farm, a tombstone factory, a salt and uranium mine and I think some others
Addams! I was 9 when this came out. I saw it like 5 times in the theater. I've always loved anything Addams Family and The Munsters. Great reaction! I really hope you do the sequel.
The second one is ICONIC you gotta watch it, a very successful sequel (better than the first one if u ask me) There’s also a really famous thanksgiving scene in that movie and it would be very seasonally appropriate
I was like 7 when this movie came out, and I loved it. It's only gotten funnier as I've grown older and started to understand more of the jokes. Around the same time, Nick-at-Nite was airing reruns of the classic sitcom and a new Saturday morning cartoon had come out. The Addams Family holds a special place in my heart.
The hand-Thing wasn't CGI but achieved by a number of practical puppets. Some of them are hand puppets, the one pulling a cart was a single-piece remote-controlled model etc.
i loved this movie as a child and my mom did too so she would dress me up as Wednesday and herself as Morticia. we have a very dark sense of humor. fun fact: Anjelica Huston played Morticia because the character looks just like her own mother!
I grew up on the old TV show with Gomez Addams played by Samwise Gamgee's dad. (This was based on an old cartoon from the 1930s.) We were all interested to see if the movie matched our expectations from the TV show. We were satisfied. You should watch the second movie. It's even better than this one in my estimation. It even includes the newest addition of the family.
My parents were going through a divorce when this came & to be honest the relationship between gomez & mortica gave me hope to have a relationship like they have, when I first saw this I fully enjoyed this. This what got me into goth & other unusual things such as Beetlejuice & all that, I wondered how they did the blood thing at the school play.
As a kid, I thought I'd found my true family. Being the poor, fat kid at school I felt vindicated. I found out my grandma's maiden name was Adams (only one 'D'). She told me that I already was an Adams, so not to worry. Best gift she ever gave me, the gift of acceptance. To be spooky and ghoulish and wicked but still be kind, generous and compassionate. To this day, I am, an Ad(d)ams. "We gladly feast on those who would subdue us."
16:00 I was in the musical 8th grade and watched it at the highschool while my cousin was in the symphony (I was a kid). I didn't like it as much as a kid because it felt less Addams family, but it was fun to be in and I feel I understood it better
Addams Glad you enjoyed! As I'm sure everyone has already mentioned, this movie is amazing but Addams Family Values is ICONIC. To answer your questions... I watched this in around 1995 when I was 7. I was an easily frightened kid but this never bothered me. I think because it was SO over the top and because none of the danger felt real. And The Bermuda Triangle is an urban legend on par with Roswell. Basically it's a small triangle of ocean where ships famously vanish without trace.
One thing I’ve never seen anyone mention is how when the uncle is Fester, he squishes his neck down. When he’s Gordon, he stands up straight Just a fun little thing to look for
The Bermuda Triangle is a area in the ocean near Bermuda that has a reputation of causing ships and planes to disappear without a trace. Is it paranormal or a natural phenomenon? You decide!
i loved both these movies as a kid plus we also had the animated series based of it runing on cartoon network back then with classic shows as johnny bravo, dexter, powerpuff, iam weasel cow and chiken and many more was a great time for tv and movies
There was a time when a bunch of ships went missing mysteriously or shipwrecked in the Bermuda Triangle leading it to be nicknamed "The Devil`s Triangle".
I know this is late, but I absolutely loved this movie as a child (and still do) but then again I was a "weird" girl. Absolutely obsessed with mummies for starters, I could explain the whole mummification process in all it's gruesome details lol Predictably the Mummy is one of my all-time favorites (that movie actually scared me a lot too, it's not really horror but it was the first "horror-adjacent" movie that my parents let me watch)
I don’t think any one answered the Bermuda Triangle thing but basically it’s just an area in the ocean that boats used to get lost in enough that it’s considered a cursed place to avoid. Of course it turns out it just has a weird magnetic thing going on that messes with traditional compasses so it’s a bit less mysterious now.
Love The Addams Family. I related to Wednesday so much as the "goth" kid (not by my definition but according to others) growing up. I was just into dark things/clothes and seemed annoyed at anybody who was outgoing or preppy so that's understandable. 😅 I still love the goth aesthetic. Now I like to think I've grown up to be more of a Morticia lol. This one is awesome and the second movie is even better. 🖤
As a kid, I loved this movie. So did my parents. I loved Wednesday and Morticia. My mom was a fan of Cousin It and would mimic him with her long brown hair and glasses for a giggle.
YES! such a family classic. we used to watch this one all the time growing up. as a kid, I never thought anything was weird at all and loved it to pieces. Wednesday and Thing were always my favorites, haha. please please please watch Addams Family Values, it's just as good as the first one.
If it helps for the sequel: Gomez and Morticia live purely to have sex. If they’re not having sex then they’re thinking of having sex and if they’re not thinking of having sex then they’re *actually* having sex and thinking of having *more* sex. As for the Bermuda Triangle, I’ll merely say this: bad shit often happens there in unexplained ways. And with Morticia and the light on the eyes, the implication is that she’s a vampire. In the Bella Luigi films (and the Christopher Lee ones too, I think?) light *ONLY* hits Dracula’s eyes. Morticia also never shows her teeth when smiling and, in the TV Series, she asks “do you mind if I smoke” and *literal smoke* comes out of the bottom of her dress… So she, at least, is implied to be, most definitely, *not* human. Also, Wednesday and Pugsley know of Fester, but he’s been missing for twenty five years… implying that *they* have been around for at least 40ish and age much slower than ordinary humans. And the Granny is implied to be a witch - hemlock (poison) is amongst her things. And Cyanide is used for poison too. She’s meant to be a sort of “herbalist”, like one of those nature witches, but it’s more *actual witch* than herbalist. And Great Aunt Calpurnia, who was burnt at the stake, is said to be from 1790… assuming Gomez is actually about 50ish by now, his father (Wednesday’s grandfather and sister of Calpurnia - hence how it’s *Wednesday’s* great-aunt) must have been *several hundred years old* when he was born or Gomez and Fester have been around for a long time and the whole family is, functionally, immortal. Then there’s Lurch - he’s meant to be the Frankenstein’s monster (or at least based on it). Frankenstein happened in the Middle Ages… so if Lurch has been with the family the whole time, they’ve been around in their current forms and shapes *for nearly 600 years at the time.* Cousin Itt… well… God knows what he is? Perhaps the actual sightings of Bigfoot are him? Then you have Thing (Actually Thing T. Thing. The T. Stands for Thing as well) who is a *literal* disembodied and sentient hand…
As a kid (it was shown almost every year on free-tv and I was maybe 10 or 11 when I first watched it) I adored this movie. I wanted to be Wednesday. So I started to part my hair in the middle and tried styling my bangs like hers. Good times. P.S.: Addams, I guess
Did anyone else have that channel on TV that played old black and white shows? I watched the Addams family and the Munsters. So great! For the time they were on, it was such a funny social commentary. A loving family despite being the opposite of everything 'normal'. A doting affectionate husband, who was goofy and couldn't drive, and a strong sensual wife who ran the house. The kids were actually homeschooled and Uncle Fester wasn't Gomez's brother. He was actually his uncle.
Great reaction 😁 and you got to experience the More Mamushka version for your first viewing! The original release had a very cut down version of the musical number.
16:03 Just make sure you see the one that's like the original broadway production (not the Chicago production, that one needed a lot of work). The Broadway production has both 'Crazier than you' and 'In the Arms' (short for 'In the arms of a squid') for two individual couples, not just sharing 'Crazier than you' between two couples.
"how does gomez addams have a million dollars?"
Insane, batshit investments. It's canon that he makes a tremendous amount of money on crocodile farms, abandoned buildings, etc. Pretty much anything that SHOULDN'T return on investment, in fact, does so spectacularly if Gomez is involved. He's supposedly in the top 10 wealthiest characters in fiction, behind Scrooge McDuck.
So he’s basically a fictional version of Timothy Dexter? Nice
Plus piracy, Spanish dubloons aplenty
@@daniellebyford710 Well the Addams ancestors, I think in one of the series is even referenced as one of the Addams ancestors was an English pirate and a double spy of sorts…
His crocodile farm is called “Crocodiles Unlimited.”
Omg I didn’t know that.
Most wholesome couple in Hollywood, Morticia and Gomez 🤣
I never use this term but they're honestly the definition of "couple goals" lol
@@katwebbxo Same
don’t know if wholesome is the word i’d use hahaha
I could only dream of having such a relationship.
I mean, yeah, they were meant to be a parody or mock of the basic family sitcoms were everybody hates eachother and the "uhg i hate my wife!" jokes, so they ended up being a very passionate and over all healty marriage, and a communicative family
Addams Family Values is also something I think you should check out
Yes next time
Definitely
yeeessss
PLEASE DO THIS! The sequel is just as good.
Absolutely!
🤩
Morticia and Gomez are the best gothic romance/parent goals 🖤🖤🖤
YES
Cinema therapy just did an episode on this subject.
@@lorriehicks7156 it was sooo good.Their channel is amazinh
This family is goals. Gomez and Morticia are still madly in love, they care about their family, they fully support their children, they're financially well-off, and just all kinds of their own brand of wonderful. 🥰 Oh, and they even give to charity!
The Addams family are a parody of the average sitcom family (who try to appear the perfect family while they secretly hate each other), with the catch being they actually adore each other.

The Bermuda Triangle is an area between Florida, Puerto Rico and Bermuda, got a reputation for ships and airplanes disappearing without a trace..
Also, Angelica Huston and Christina Ricci absolutely killed it in this amazing movie!
pretty much entire family was amazing but what can you expect from christoffer lloyd and raul julia they are always greeat in any movie
It is also a hoax and pretty easily debunked (there are many good Yt videos on the topic)
But that did not stop it from being one of the best known late 20th century urban myths (along with Nostradamus, Area 51, crop circles, Loch Ness monster, yetis etc.) and being referenced in tons of shows
@@summerrose8110 now now…let’s play nice. Art is subjective and even if they are entirely wrong… Let’s not be mean but kindly enlighten
@@whade62000 yes cause TH-cam knows all. Lol!

Glad you enjoyed! As I'm sure everyone has already mentioned, this movie is amazing but Addams Family Values is ICONIC.
To answer your questions... I watched this in around 1995 when I was 7. I was an easily frightened kid but this never bothered me. I think because it was SO over the top and because none of the danger felt real.
And The Bermuda Triangle is an urban legend on par with Roswell. Basically it's a small triangle of ocean where ships famously vanish without trace.
They created a special light that focused light across Morticia’s eyes.
One thing I’ve never seen anyone mention is how when the uncle is Fester, he squishes his neck down. When he’s Gordon, he stands up straight
Just a fun little thing to look for
15:10 That's Cousin Itt. I could just about hear all the fan girls screaming when his car door/roof opened.
This and Casper (1995) was some of my favorite Halloween movies when I was a kid 😁
Adams! I was like 10 when this came out, definitely a childhood favourite. You should totally watch the sequel. 🎃
I was Wednesday’s age when this movie came out and I really enjoyed it. The adult humor did go over my head lol.
Know I’m so exited for you to watch the sequel,Addams family values
That ride thing actually looks really run, where Gomez & Fester went down, that looks so much fun! I'd do it.
The Bermuda Triangle is a area in the ocean near Bermuda that has a reputation of causing ships and planes to disappear without a trace. Is it paranormal or a natural phenomenon? You decide!
“What can that hand not due”
Me: wait till you see him catch a ride on the back of a car, Marty mcfly style 😎
I only celebrate Halloween. I don’t celebrate Christmas anymore. Christmas is a commercial holiday.
i loved both these movies as a kid plus we also had the animated series based of it runing on cartoon network back then with classic shows as johnny bravo, dexter, powerpuff, iam weasel cow and chiken and many more was a great time for tv and movies
There was a time when a bunch of ships went missing mysteriously or shipwrecked in the Bermuda Triangle leading it to be nicknamed "The Devil`s Triangle".
That hand can't high-five itself
This is one of my all time FAVORITE movie as a kid. I watched it all the time. Loved picking up on the adult jokes as I got older
I know this is late, but I absolutely loved this movie as a child (and still do) but then again I was a "weird" girl. Absolutely obsessed with mummies for starters, I could explain the whole mummification process in all it's gruesome details lol
Predictably the Mummy is one of my all-time favorites (that movie actually scared me a lot too, it's not really horror but it was the first "horror-adjacent" movie that my parents let me watch)
The Addams family 2 is a MUST. ADDAMS
But damn relationship goals
FACTS
I don’t think any one answered the Bermuda Triangle thing but basically it’s just an area in the ocean that boats used to get lost in enough that it’s considered a cursed place to avoid. Of course it turns out it just has a weird magnetic thing going on that messes with traditional compasses so it’s a bit less mysterious now.
Love The Addams Family. I related to Wednesday so much as the "goth" kid (not by my definition but according to others) growing up. I was just into dark things/clothes and seemed annoyed at anybody who was outgoing or preppy so that's understandable. 😅 I still love the goth aesthetic. Now I like to think I've grown up to be more of a Morticia lol. This one is awesome and the second movie is even better. 🖤
As a kid, I loved this movie. So did my parents. I loved Wednesday and Morticia. My mom was a fan of Cousin It and would mimic him with her long brown hair and glasses for a giggle.

It's been calculated (by Forbes I think) that Gomez Addams is the second richest character in fiction. Only Scrooge McDuck is richer.
YES! such a family classic. we used to watch this one all the time growing up. as a kid, I never thought anything was weird at all and loved it to pieces. Wednesday and Thing were always my favorites, haha. please please please watch Addams Family Values, it's just as good as the first one.
I always love your reactions love from the Netherlands

I saw it as a kid lots of times. Loved it and the sequel!
I think you'll enjoy Addams Family Values. They kind of amp up the character scenes by 500%
If it helps for the sequel: Gomez and Morticia live purely to have sex.
If they’re not having sex then they’re thinking of having sex and if they’re not thinking of having sex then they’re *actually* having sex and thinking of having *more* sex.
As for the Bermuda Triangle, I’ll merely say this: bad shit often happens there in unexplained ways.
And with Morticia and the light on the eyes, the implication is that she’s a vampire. In the Bella Luigi films (and the Christopher Lee ones too, I think?) light *ONLY* hits Dracula’s eyes. Morticia also never shows her teeth when smiling and, in the TV Series, she asks “do you mind if I smoke” and *literal smoke* comes out of the bottom of her dress…
So she, at least, is implied to be, most definitely, *not* human.
Also, Wednesday and Pugsley know of Fester, but he’s been missing for twenty five years… implying that *they* have been around for at least 40ish and age much slower than ordinary humans.
And the Granny is implied to be a witch - hemlock (poison) is amongst her things. And Cyanide is used for poison too. She’s meant to be a sort of “herbalist”, like one of those nature witches, but it’s more *actual witch* than herbalist.
And Great Aunt Calpurnia, who was burnt at the stake, is said to be from 1790… assuming Gomez is actually about 50ish by now, his father (Wednesday’s grandfather and sister of Calpurnia - hence how it’s *Wednesday’s* great-aunt) must have been *several hundred years old* when he was born or Gomez and Fester have been around for a long time and the whole family is, functionally, immortal.
Then there’s Lurch - he’s meant to be the Frankenstein’s monster (or at least based on it). Frankenstein happened in the Middle Ages… so if Lurch has been with the family the whole time, they’ve been around in their current forms and shapes *for nearly 600 years at the time.*
Cousin Itt… well… God knows what he is? Perhaps the actual sightings of Bigfoot are him?
Then you have Thing (Actually Thing T. Thing. The T. Stands for Thing as well) who is a *literal* disembodied and sentient hand…
This is an amazing movie! I loved it as a kid and now as an adult 💕
MARRIAGE GOALS! ❤️❤️
YES
9:30 C. All of the Above
I've seen this movie tons of times since I was like 5 and I hold it dearly. Loved it when I was a kid, love it now.
0:00 NO! You snap! Not clap! 😂
As a kid (it was shown almost every year on free-tv and I was maybe 10 or 11 when I first watched it) I adored this movie. I wanted to be Wednesday. So I started to part my hair in the middle and tried styling my bangs like hers. Good times.
P.S.: Addams, I guess
Did anyone else have that channel on TV that played old black and white shows? I watched the Addams family and the Munsters. So great! For the time they were on, it was such a funny social commentary. A loving family despite being the opposite of everything 'normal'. A doting affectionate husband, who was goofy and couldn't drive, and a strong sensual wife who ran the house. The kids were actually homeschooled and Uncle Fester wasn't Gomez's brother. He was actually his uncle.
In the original cartoon, ‘Thing’ was an arm in a box. It becomes a hand in the movie.
Addams! Both movies and Practical Magic are my annual Halloween watches.
This film is INCREDIBLE! And the sequel is hilarious, as well.
Addams! I'm a 90s baby and I grew up watching this, loved it then, love it now
addams family is fun, addams family values is iconic
So glad you liked it, I love the Addams family. You should absolutely watch the sequel, I personally thinks it the best one
Great reaction 😁 and you got to experience the More Mamushka version for your first viewing! The original release had a very cut down version of the musical number.
16:03 Just make sure you see the one that's like the original broadway production (not the Chicago production, that one needed a lot of work). The Broadway production has both 'Crazier than you' and 'In the Arms' (short for 'In the arms of a squid') for two individual couples, not just sharing 'Crazier than you' between two couples.
OMG YAY!!!! this is one of my favorite movies :)
