I did fall asleep reading a particularly erotic chapter
in my grandmother's journal.

She wrote very detailed descriptions of her experiences...

I have never actually seen it but I have read enough comedic reviews savaging it that I could almost write the screenplay and maybe get 70% of it accurate.

Is it actually worth a watch, like in a so-bad-it's-good way? Or is it just plain bad-bad?

It's basically a live-action saturday morning cartoon so you can enjoy yourself if you keep that in mind.

there’s an addams family musical and, just to give you an idea of how wildly it misunderstands the addams family, the central conflict is that wednesday has grown up and become “normal” and is embarrassed by her family. gomez and morticia’s marriage is on the rocks. the entire family is stupid, dysfunctional, and on the verge of collapse.

oh, and there’s a very weird subplot involving the Addams family’s squid sexually assaulting the father of Wednesday’s fiancé

Gomez canonicaly has incredible luck. Anything he invests in will prosper, to the point of it being a superpower. In one episode he was trying on purpose to fail just to see what it's like to lose money.

Im actually kinda glad that they haven't made some "Addams Family Extended Universe" and origin story examining their supernatural abilities and origins.

Street Fighter is absolutely worth watching, and 99% of that is Raul Julia's performance.

The remaining 1% is Jean Claude Van Damme's monologue where he talks about getting in his boat kicking M. Bison's rear end so hard the next Bison-wannabe is going to feel it.

I heard that he was cremated and buried underneath a tree on the property of one of the homes he owned. The problem is they had three houses and his widow didn’t remember where she buried him. So somebody today in Los Angeles has a dead Lurch in their backyard and they probably don’t know it. Allegedly.

Those books are great. Reading them at around age 18 or 19 was my first exposure to the concept of gender non-binary. Blew my mind, maaaan.

My totally real wife is sick and watching this movie. I guess I love it. But what are they?

Are they dead? There's a scene where they are playing with a train in the basement and there's like a whole entire person on the train reading the newspaper completely not fazed by the fact he's in a model train?

One of them is a zombie? one is a hand?

They kill each other?

Are we meant to relate to them because they are weirdos and misfits who stick together? Or is it some commentary about how old money is insular, bizarre, and death-obsessed?

Really lots of questions about The Addams Family.

they're the exact opposite of the ideal american family OP.

they aren't middle class or hard-scrabble working class they're ludicrously aristocratic.

they aren't hard workers they've inherited all their wealth and gomez has a magic ability to make anything he invests in succeed.

they don't play baseball and drink beer with the boys while mom cooks apple pie, they grow venus fly traps and collect coffins.

they're obssessed with death and the gothic rather than picket fences and jesus and childhood innocence.

they love each other and have a healthy relationship because not a single one of those things makes them bad people. the franchise is about how not understanding something or being different doesn't make something evil. that's why in values all the native americans are the Jewish kids, handicapped kids, black kids, asian kids etc and they take over the thanksgiving scene to tell the story from the native americans perspective.
