Smon Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Mysterious and spooky, they're altogether ooky, the Addams Family! I was clicking through the channels when I catch an Addams Family marathon on Boomerang and remembered the fantastic family who scared the **** out of their neighbors. Anyone else fans of this lovable macabre group of misfits?
DarthAve Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 "Their house is a museam. And when you go to see em, they really are a scre-em. The Addams Family!" I freggin love the Addams Family. I've seen the movies a bajillion times, and love the old skool cartoon. Wednesday was always my favorite of the bunch. She was the beginning of the goth girl fo America. Do you remember when they went on Scooby Doo mysteries thing?
Poopdogjr Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 One of the best theme songs EVER! I loved the first movie the best. The second was still good, but the first is still numba 1 with me. Is the old cartoon on boomerang? I thought that was funny too.
DarthAve Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I just wish Boomerang would have a banana splits marathon. Banana splits and Addams family marathon, sweet. OH yeah, Cousin It was always awesome.
Zetz Darke Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I wish that this and Beetlejuice were still playing regularly. I think I'd enjoy both a lot more now. I didn't like either when I was younger.
itchythesamurai Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Smon likes The Addams Family?! No way! I so snap along to the theme, and way back in a Spanish class we learned a song to the its tune. Thing was my favorite.
Mashi An'krekku Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Ohhh man. The memorieees. I wish I had Boomerang over here...actually I think we do but our TV's still out from the damn stormages last week. D:<
Smon Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 Gomez was always my favorite character (O RLY?) because he's rich, powerful, and still a kid at heart. It's my dream to grow up to be like him. Plus swordfighting = awesome.
DarthAve Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Did he ever swoardfight in the cartoon or the black and white TV show? I don't remember.
Smon Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 I don't think he did in the black and white show, but he jousted, swordfighted, and overall kicked ass in the cartoon.
pyrohappygirl Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 My favorite character was always Wednesday. She was... so cool Especially in the bit where her and her brother go to camp. That was so funny... And then they get forced to watch feel good movies. I scare people off in the same way...
Smon Posted July 28, 2006 Author Posted July 28, 2006 Uncle Fester was pretty awesome too. Always exploding. But my favorite one-shot character was Uncle Cleaver, who only appeared in the family reunion episode, but was basically this manic maniac who had a trenchcoat full of knives, chainsaws, and machetes.
St. Jimmy Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 the movies were the best. especially the first one.
DarthAve Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 The first one...Was that the one where that one chick tried to steal their fourtion? Also, I want to learn to do the mamushka someday. "So let's dance the dance of brotherly loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! MAMUSHKA!"
Smon Posted July 29, 2006 Author Posted July 29, 2006 Sort of, there was a second one where a chick tries to steal their fortune.
DarthAve Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 The second one, the chick married Fester and tried to steal their money. the first one, this chick came in claiming to have Fester, but he got amnesia or somthing. And it turns out it really was Fester! Imagine that! Also I remember in the second movie Wednesday and Pugsley went ot camp, and Wednesday got that nerdy boyfriend and destroyed the camp's thanksgiving play thing.
Smon Posted July 29, 2006 Author Posted July 29, 2006 When I was little I had the Addams Family video game for the SNES, it was pretty fun for a crappy Mario clone.
DarthAve Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Have you played the pinball game for the Addams Family movie? It's awesome.
Smon Posted July 29, 2006 Author Posted July 29, 2006 Yep. It's the best selling pinball game in the world.
DarthAve Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Yeah, i played it up in Wisconsin. here, all we have is Star Wars, episode 1 pinball. Which I totally kick ass at.
St. Jimmy Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 MAMUSHKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved that Pinball game! I remember playing it when I was Very young in a fish and chip shop that no longer exists. The weird thing was, After I lost all my lives the machine weirded out and just let me keep playing anyway! Now that's kooky.
