Addams Family is an animated disaster 

the people clicking this because of the wednesday show hi guys hi hi

fun fact: i got in a car crash after leaving the theater from this movie, it's cursed

What I hate the most about this movie is that it missed the point of the Addams family as a whole, Morticia for example is supposed to be a sweet caring open minded woman who has no issue associating with people different from her, in this movie though she wants to keep her family isolated from the rest of the world to the point of coming off as manipulative. It's saddening to see these classic characters treated this way.

i honestly didn’t even give this movie a chance, as soon as i saw the character design and trailer. i’m like nope this is not gonna end well.

I actually liked that Wednesday's hair was done into little nooses.

Can we also talk about how they completely changed the characters of Morticia and Gomez from being invested in their kids interests and insanely proud of them in everything they do, even when they don't approve of those interests, to one of the main plot points being both of them having no pride in their children and disapproving of them so much that they feel the need change them and complain about them behind their backs? That was the BIGGEST and WORSE change that this film made to the Addams Family story and its criminal.

the fact that we could've had a tim burton stop motion outta this and didn't makes me very sad, their styles would meld PERFECTLY.

Addams Family: **has a budget of 24,000,000 dollars** Killer Bean Forever: **Laughs in under a million dollar budget**

The Addams Family movies and comics were the equivalent of a slice-of-life anime. No main goals, no save-the-day, just the family and their wacky antics.

The character designs in this movie range from “Yeah that looks, like something” to “That is the worst animated character design I’ve ever witnessed.”

I always just got the vibe that the Adams family just kept to themselves. Not out of fear or safety, they just believe in homeschooling and not spending money on going out when they can make their own fun and home cooked meals. Other people may have a problem with them but they NEVER have a problem with other people. They never go looking for a fight and the comedy arises when the villain tries to kill them and they take it all as good fun

The Adams family should only be remade in theses 3 ways: •Tim Burton’s stop motion style •a 1950’s rubber hose style •a musical (yes I know there is one already.)

Tim Burton was born to make creepy, macabre, gothic-style media. He would've nailed an Addams Family stop-motion adaptation. It's right up his alley.

my biggest thing was the character designs eithier being too skinny, or too fat. squashed head or long skinny head. and the big bad boss lady had her terrible design of, "HUUUGE hair! pointy feet, small head with even smaller face!" is just annoying. edit : thanks for the likes :D

My mom had struggled with cancer for 14 years before it inevitably killed her. She used to share all the things she grew up with when she was a kid when I was growing up, and Adams family was one of her favorite things to share with me. She died in 2018, and I’m glad she didn’t live to see this monstrosity.

"Nope, this is not a lorax villian, totally not a lorax villian" "So this lorax villian.."

you know its bad when illumination could've been the hero we needed

Why does he sound like he’s angry and wants to yell but his parents are asleep in the other room and he doesn’t want to wake them up

I feel like they didn't get the Addams family at all really, because the girl Wednesday becomes friends with in the end just starts wearing black makeup and black clothing and starts being all depressing and stuff, which she supposedly wanted to do this because of Wednesday, which isn't what defines the Addams family at all. They are happy people living their lives in a twisted way, and the writers just ignored that. They just thought "ah black clothing, lets make the side character start wearing black clothing and be a drag." Its honestly just depressing seeing how they missed the target so far away. Also if I'm incorrect on anything its because I watched this a year ago and haven't (nor do I plan on) seeing it ever again.

"Illumination" and "Stop-Motion" are two words that I would never think would exist in the same sentence

Despite how "creepy" the Addams Family are supposed to be, I almost feel like I'd feel safe around them in real life. They really do love and care about one another, and they are so supportive. They're oddballs, but they feel like a perfect family. This movie gives me NONE of those safe, happy feelings. I feel like these characters would actually hurt me.

Ironically, the Adams family didn't originally necessarily keep the people out on purpose... When people came they were hospitable and nice in their own cooky crazy way, they were well-mannered, polite, and courteous, all of them. People avoided them like the plague coz they were WEIRD. There used to be another Adams Family show when I was a kid and I remember clear as day that the Adamses were nice and friendly, just didn't approach people unless they needed to, coz y'know, introverts and knowing personal boundaries!

There's fine line between Stylized and God-awfully ugly.

Animators: “How much forehead should we give Wednesday?” MGM: *Yes.*

The fact that wednesday was built like a spoon in this movie 😭

This movie genuinely has the most hideous character designs I've ever seen. The thumbnail nearly made me projectile vomit

All of the characters are too porcelain. Morticia's creepy factor is how she looks so PORCELAIN. None of the characters feel creepy. They have no creepy factor.

They did Gomez so wrong, actually they did everyone wrong in this movie

I think what I love the most about the Adam’s Family is that they’re portrayed as weird and strange because they have….. an extremely healthy family dynamic and seem to be the only ones in that universe who has one

wait... TIM BURTON WAS GOING TO DIRECT AN ADDAMS FAMILY STOP MOTION ANIMATED FILM???!!! AND INSTEAD WE GOT THIS ABOMINATION OF A MOVIE?!?!?

"The Lorax from 2012 looks better than this thing" Wow, that's saying something

There is one scene in particular that made me know this movie was going to suck from one of the trailers: the hair clip. In the scene Morticia is shocked that Wednesday is wearing a "girly girl" pink unicorn hair clip, which is just a slap in the face of the original character. One of the things that was always great about the Addams family is that they are _super accepting_ of other people and their ways, they are always polite and accommodating treating others the way they would want to be treated. This is well portrayed in one of the films when it appears their third child is "normal" and not like the rest of them and tried to raise him as like a normal baby is raised until his inner Addams came out. Contrast this to 2019 Addams family in which this Morticia is a typical spooky character repulsed by cute things, while the real Morticia would have been supportive of Wednesday's choices regardless of whether she understood them or not.

"Tombstones. Goth IHop. Cement." It's 2:44 in the morning and I might have just woken up my parents with my laughter.

The only good joke was the hand looking at toes on his laptop

I feel like they were working on the ads for like a year and then realized “shit we actually need a movie to go along with these”

Fun fact: The kid who played Pugsley in the original movies is the guy from the *Tips Fedora* meme.

that blonde lady whose hair is 80% of her body is the absolute _pinnacle_ of character design, you guys just don't understand 😤

When the "normal" human characters look more creepy than the Addamses themselves.

Completely missed the message of the Addams family. They accept everyone and anyone with no question. Morticia would never shame her daughter for wearing a pink hair clip, she'd encourage it

could you imagine how absolutley gorgeous the addams family could have been if it was in stop motion and had the tim burton style?

honestly so happy Tim Burton made a new show about Wednesday to have something new about the Addams Family to freshen our minds. Thank you, Tim. You have once again made a classic.

Wednesday looks and moves like a Veggietales character in this movie.

A stop motion Adams family directed by Tim Burton would have been bloody beautiful

I didn't like how, when Wednesday started branching out and wearing pink and stuff, Morticia was just horrified and borderline offended by that. Like I always took it that the Addams family was strange, but they didn't outright reject people for being different. They ARE different, and while they like what they do, they never were close-minded about other people.

“You would think they would’ve learned from this.” *Addams Family 2* “Apparently not..”

I now learned it's possible to be a character in 3d without a 3d personality

"Changing the colors of something is not a design" Shiny pokemon: *sweating*

every character in this movie fr looks like a sleep paralysis demon

This movie in a nutshell: *"Do I really look like a movie with a plan?"*

I get why people may not like the Hotel Transylvania designs, but at least that animation has incredible speed and good comedic timing

The villain just looks like a humanized version of that smiley emoji from the emoji movie. And that is * Not* a good thing in my eyes

in the words of the guy who holds the record of Bowser's Big Bean Burrito, "Look at your face, it looks like a car ran over it."

My biggest issue with recent addams family stuff is that they're trying to make Wednesday have conflict with her parents when the entire point of the addams family is that they love and support each other despite their 'unnatural' appearance

Can we all just appreciate the fact that the “spooky black cherry” icee says that it has 0% naturally flavored juice

The characters in this movie look like they should be in Fanboy and Chum Chum

I HATE the character designs with a freakin PASSION

I hate when animated movies where they make the characters look so wacky that one of the main characters is literally built like a spoon

12 principles of animation: *exists* The Addams Family: *I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see that*

I literally died when he said “Cement” in the most bland yet entertaining way possible

The character designs other than the Adams look like that generic corporate art style u see e v e r y w h e r e

I have to agree because in this movie they basically made Wednesday built like a spoon 💀

Holy shit I just realized something Ok, so normally in art when you do shading, the shaded color is a different hue than the lighter color. Usually the shaded color is a cooler color (blue, purple, greens) while the unshaded color is warmer colors (red, yellow, orange.) you can see that somewhat with the Lorax clip he showed. IN THIS FUCKIN MOVIE, HOWEVER, the shading is done by lowering the brightness of the color itself, which makes it look OH SO washed out and off-putting. This is fine for the scenes where the gothic tone is apparent, but it’s consistent EVERYWHERE. DEAR GOD

It's official: Hotel Transylvania is the best animated Addams Family film.

It sucks money ruined a potential masterpiece of stop-motion directed by the king of stop-motion, Tim Burton

Seeing that clip from hotel Transylvania reminded me what an animated movie is supposed to look like

The ONLY good scene in this movie was the scene where Uncle Fester sings “I’d Tip My Hat To You” in the park and then exposes himself to a group of children whilst simultaneously unleashing a hoard of bats from under his coat.

In an alternate universe, they're enjoying the Adams Family made by Focus (the guys behind Coraline) Edit: Sorry, I meant Laika.

Gomez looks like a pug. Uncle fester is knock off Gru. Wednesday is a popsicle. Pugsley is Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls. Morticia looks like when I peel a potato. And the grandma is the witch from Brave.

Just their looks alone was enough to keep me away. I've grown weary of this huge head on a toothpick body and small head on a huge torso look. They're just horrible and, as you mentioned, look like concept art before the final rendition. Surely Burton's version would've been better. How is it we can tolerate his oddball character designs but not Illumination? There's just something off about it. Not a fan of Wednesday's head being absurdly stretched to look like a vertical pill. They should've watched _Frankenweenie_ (2012) and blended that style with the original comic's. Edit: I think what irks me the most is in every Illumination movie there's always one woman character with 50 pounds of hair balancing on her head. Bonus irk points for a gratuitous southern accent to pair it with.

_The background character designs are terrible and very ugly, the plot is basically The Lorax and I don’t understand the Wednesday and her friend part. Her friend starts wearing black makeup, black clothing and acts depressed which isn’t what the Addams Family is. Yes, they wear black but they aren’t depressed at all_

Lurch is the only character who's design actually looks finished.

The studio who did stop motion for Coraline should’ve done it.

I remember watching this when it came out, and you described my feeling perfectly when you said “wait wait that’s it? That’s the end?” Because that’s quite literally what I was thinking. There was practically 0 conflict and and that “conflict” was resolved so quickly you would think that it was just a minor conflict in the movie. But nope. That’s the entire premise of the movie.

so basically: Hollywood: Alright, we’re going to pick a production to help produce the Addam’s Family. Tim Burton: Let’s make it my style and stop-motioned- Hollywood: No. Universal: Let’s make it dark, terrifying, and- Hollywood: No. I’ll pick... Illumination: *Sits quietly in the corner*

I hate how out if character everyone is. Pugsley was never really malicious. Wednesday is a polite good daughter. Morticia is classy refined and always calm. Gomez only see the bright side of things and here's very reckless and energetic. When he's emotional he plays with his trains. Wednesday would never be rude. Pugsley would never try to kill his dad out of malice, it's always a playful thing. The most offensive change in my opinion is that the Addams care at all. Despite their eccentricities they are very oblivious to themselves, they don't realize others find them strange most of the time. They'd also never run away. Never. They literally train to fight for their family and their family creed is literally "We Gladly Feast on Those Who Would Subdue Us". Gomez being rich because he's very lucky is also important to his character since it's a big reason why he's still so childish. I hate how nervous and demure they made the new Gomez. He'd also never let Pugsley get away with slacking off like that for a family event. Family is too important to him. I also feel like they didn't show their family dynamic well. They all clearly love each other and are very protective over each other. The new movie made it seem like they were an average disney family when they're more loving and supportive than that. If Wednesday ever did act like they made her act then Morticia would be supportive and try to meet her friend and be a part of their lives. She doesn't like that aesthetic but if she thought that's what Wednesday would want then it wouldn't be an issue. Morticia and Gomez are also way more affectionate to their kids and they always try to have time with them. Gomez would never be afraid of Pugsley's bombs. If anything he'd challenge him to improve his accuracy and see it as bonding time. The music in the movie is also as terrible as I thought it would be. It's all generic pop with generic lyrics. They're all way too smiley too. Addams rarely smile like that. They usually have more cocky, mischevious, and sometimes just evil smiles. They're not supposed to be all gummy and genuine. And after all that the designs are disgusting. The only thing I liked was the noose at the end of Wednesday's braids. They also made Wednesday try too hard to be an edgelord. Wednesday doesn't need to try because she's naturally intimidating since she doesn't thing her interests are bad or that she's wrong for wanting to hurt people or just doing it. I hate the new girl the most though. They included her to be a generic rebelling self righteous pre-teen and they gave her this gross nose and permanent eyebags with this gross square face shape. Hate her. Hate everything in that movie. That normie cheer song gives me nightmares.

Wednesday looks like an emo bowling pin

begging to god that people don’t remember the Addams family as the animated movie

I hate the “it’s just for kids” excuse, you can claim that all you want, but I doubt many kids watching this in the future are gonna have fond memories of it, and wished they had watched something like WALL-E or my neighbour Totoro

When I first saw this movie the whole time I was so focused on how ugly they all were that by the time the movie was over I literally had no clue what happened

"Addams Family is an animated disaster" I guess that's why we don't hear about this movie

tim burton finally came to the addams family now😻🙏

In the words of Chowder "Oh yeah they’re pretty, pretty ugly!"

Remember when the Addams family were the scary weird looking people and not just gray people?

I have a feeling that the director was given the money, didn’t know what to do with it and bought a car. Years later, he realised ‘oh shit I need to make a movie with this?’

On the bright side I think the failure of these movies is why Wednesday (the tv series) is so good. They realized that no one wants generic, corporate schlock.

“Nope, this is not a Lorax villain.” Okay, I believe you. “So this Lorax villain...” Wait-

24 frames of nick is light mode, schaffrillas is dark. I cant explain it that's just the energy.

This movie saved my life. I was a big fan of the Addams family in general, and everybody knew it. When i was coming back from school one day, i got into a traffic accident and i was in a coma for almost half a year. When the movie aired, the doctors managed to get a copy of it to play it to me and, as the first seconds of it played on the lame tv they had in the hospital, i said "Fuck this, I'm not watching this bullshit", woke up, stood up, and closed the tv back. This movie was literally **so** bad, that it got me out of a coma.

A thing that really bothers me in this movie is that they have the exact backstory of the munsters, strange outcasts from a far away place, immigrants metafor. But that´s not the Addams, the thing about them it´s that they lived in that old mansion for centuries, they even have an entire cemetery full of weird ancestors.

Plot twist: this movie was the catalyst for all the terrible things in 2020. This movie is a sin and we are being forced to atone.

WEDNESDAY STRAIGHT UP LOOKS LIKE A Q-TIP LMAO-💀

As much as people rag on the series nowadays, Gru and his house from the first Despicable Me movie pulls off this concept of a weird, oddball character in a normal world MILES better. His mannerism, his furniture, his gadgets, even his pet stand out wonderfully in contrast to the normal and boring world, which creates some pretty good setups for jokes and plot lines that both have quality. Not to the point of The Incredibles or anything like that, but still very good. And a lot better than this movie

The new writers or creators never actually knew the Addams Family. They tried too hard to hit the wrong target, and got it all wrong

The characters are monstrous I’m sure they’re trying to make them unique or cartoony, but like, they butchered it so much they just made them so ugly. And I hate it

I think the worst sin of this movie was changing the dynamic of the Addams family. They always supported and accepted each other and other people, even if they found others strange or didn't approve. That is not the case here.

Ok but why is no one talking about Fester’s nose? I hate it. It jiggles. I hate it.

“Then you got the Addams family which is all” “tombstones” “goth…ihop..” *cement*

I'n at least half convinced this movie was a money laundering scheme.

Wednesday be looking like Larry the Cucumber in this movie,,,

Gomez' mustache makes me so angry and I have no idea why.
