In the original series, Wednesday was quite young (around 10 maybe) so this Wednesday seems to be inspired by Christina Ricci’s portrayal in the movies. I don’t remember Thing having scars in the original series and I have even fewer memories of the movies, but I don’t remember Thing having a back story. It was based on the drawings of Charles Addams who had some kind of syndicated cartoon in some magazines. None of the principal characters were anything specific, just weird. They were basically a satirical inversion of the American family.

Actually the movie version, while older than 10 was definitely younger than this Wednesday

Yes, but Wednesday from the original series is just a somewhat weird little girl. Not really much of a character because of the limitations of the very young actress, she did not actively participate in the plot to any great degree. In the movie, the character is older and has a very specific personality and actively advances the story. This new series takes the character as developed by Christina Ricci in the movie and ages her. Her personality comes directly from the movie character.

The Addams Family and its sequel Addams Family Values are great fun movies, you should definitely watch them. But maybe wait until you've seen all of the show. The show's atmosphere is rather different to the movies. The show's director, Tim Burton, has worked on some great movies (not the Addams Family). I recommend Vincent, Frankenweenie, and especially The Nightmare Before Christmas.

I really enjoyed this movie and I think you will too. I find it funny how because of this show, Goth is "in" now while I'm over here being this way since 1999 and was always the weirdo....lol.

Unfamiliar, Dodo. The Film Addames - tion you might say, is far tamer, & fun... The Gomezz Tim Burton used, is more the appearance of Charles Addams the Comic strip, & illustrator of the New Yorker Magazine. I adore the original take on the frail little girl Wednesday, who had a tallent for Maming & Torturing her dollies, then a Snooty Goth girl with a mean disposition. But love the fact her back yard at home, is covered in Grave stones, as well as Thing is far more nastier & has a better sense of whimsy then Dark & Gloomy Wednesdaze does. Altho Tim B. Gave her visions like Buffy. & Wickedly sintelatingly luscious Musical Talents with a Chello. & BLACK ON BLACK, such a erry & perfect song, for her. Wednesday Addams was my favorite when I was a little girl living off of 5 Cemetery's, old swamp land, & hopes among other amusing ideas, becoming a Mortician, one Daze... The Addame's were the ideal family I also hoped to have, their love for one another unparalleled, to many more unoriginal & insincere, Suburban families, who didn't care to have, a Gothic Wednesday Addames type, living in their perfectly dreadful neighborhood. Fences, were their wellcome sign, & I relished my Grave stone play ground, as much as Wednesday, from Tim B. But not as Morbid, about my Dead neighbors, there, & long forgot fam, in the 2nd Cemetery, with real Goth statues, & above Tombs. & That wasn't why Wednesday was like me, or me like her. Wednesday had a dark loving home to run to, she had a family who may have been Kooky, but they loved each other, & didn't try to really kill one another, like mine constantly had... & The Family were always there for one another, even in times of ridiculousness, & crisis. Lurch was so funny when he wasn't being serious. & In fear of cracking a grin, for fear it would stay that way. Gomez from the original series was more sauve’ bug eyed but funny. Morticia was sultry, & more reserved, but Romanced by her Latin Loving Husband Gomez. Gomez was a rich freak who was the Founder, along with his Brother Fester of the Addames Family Fortune. & Grandmam' was the Executor of the Addames Estate. The home stead was a warm haunted property, & the family were not necessarily gone for good. The Buttler in Service to the Family, & Chauffeur, to the Families rolls Royce. Caretaker as well to all the Addames’. The Family enjoyed family get togethers, Moon bathing, & bury Gomez, in the sand. & Fester lightning up the towne with his very amazing yet truly un safe fire works, & Diamite displays. Also very helpful with educating the kids on minor explosives to Med Evile Weaponry, & ancient torture devices, including a play room built to soothe any hapless Tax Collector. Or a sudden yard sale, full of a collection of real shrunken heads, or two headed Creatures. Their pet cat was called Kitty, & was a real Lioness that would walk freely about the home. & Morticia would grow such ugly blooms of Roses, she would snip them & display the more beautiful Thorny stem's. When Gomez wasn't taking Morticia in his arms, & Tangoing around the front Hall, he was whispering to her how beautiful she was. & She would answer him in French, saying things like, Ticc’ Cademia' mia moure’ was that French? Then he'd kiss her arm uncontrollably, so passionately, taken by the moment to woo her. Not your thing, Dodo but that was the Dynamic then for the Husband & Wife Characters Streaming on Netflix, at the time. The First all Black n white series besides the Munsters ran consecutively for 3 or more years, & was a huge hit in the 1960s. Along with snappy theme song, which had such a catchy hook, it's fans were singing, along to it 🛡️⚔️🛡️ 🤌🏼snap snap!🦴💀🦴💀💀🦴💀🦴 The latest Tim Burton's Wednesday has little to no personality, not my preferred choice. & She's far more Darker then ever. But I do like her ideas, & her dreaded witticisms. Too bad the rest of the family are not a part of her world, & she's portrayed more disturbed, by them. that's sad because they were all so much better as one darkly loving unit. Danke Dodo, & Aveda Zane.🦤 💖💀💖🐶👩🏻‍🚀✨🌛✨
