Happy Halloween:D
Yeah, Gordon was actually Fester. He was missing for 25 years due to his amnesia, and his “mother” did actually find him in the Bermuda Triangle. The lightning at the end restored his memories so he was living as Fester again and knew he wasn’t Gordon
"Caught in a Tuna Net with amnesia!" ☺️
I heard he was originally supposed to be an impostor but that the cast requested that the ending was rewritten to him really being Fester all along.
yeah the movie drops a lot of hints that its actually Fester, like his knowledge of anatomy and wounds, his knowledge of how to dance the traditional dance that he definitely should not have known, the unusual trust Gomez shows in him, and the strange conversations he has with Morticia that seem like she knows something he might not know. The ending wasn't super clear because the "amnesia" thing had about 20 seconds of exposition to explain it, but if you pay close attention, there are lots of things in the film that prove that its truly a member of the Addams's family and not just "Gordon".
Yes, I think a lot of people miss that though, because if you’re not paying attention, it can get a little confusing.
The Addams family aren't monsters. They are people who just like the darker side of life and see the world differently. They consider everyone else strange.
the Addams are people who act like monsters. The Munsters are monsters who act like people
honestly its never really clear WHAT they are (at least in the movies), definitely not normal humans considering what they can survive though
Actually, canonically, Morticia is a witch from a bloodline of monsters. Gomez is a human who married in to the family because he was just as crazy as them. That's why all of them can deal with such nonsense physically.
@@Xenotric Yea, a corpse for a butler, an uncle who can't die, a severed hand for a pet... Definitely not normal, and that's the whole point I think.
I love both the Addams and the Munsters!! the Addams have some "dark" enchantment-like privileges, but they're human and super supportive of family endeavors - it's really quite wholesome, and possibly the origin of modern emo culture. ;-)
In my opinion, Morticia and Gomez have the healthiest relationship
Your right
I agree that what I want
They are relationship goals even though they are fictional
Exactly. Forget Romeo and Juliet, Morticia and Gomez are my #relationshipgoals.
I just watched a documentary on RUclips discussing how the Addams family were the best family on TV at the time, comparing them to shows like Dick Van Dyke, Bewitched, and I Dream of Jeannie.
RIP, Raul Julia. 1940-1994. He was perfect as Gomez Addams
Seemed like such a nice guy, too. When kids would recognize him as Gomez, he would immediately go into character because it brought him and them so much joy.
@@nickmanzo8459 Sounds just like Gene Wilder. Every time a child would recognize him as Willy Wonka he would immediately go into character because he loved it and loved making children so happy.
As everyone has pointed out, "Gordon" is indeed Fester. His "mother" found him in the Bermuda Triangle 25 years ago with amnesia. And the Addams are not monsters. (Starts singing) They're creepy and they're kookie, mysterious and spooky, they're all together ookie, The Addams Family (Du-du-du-duu *Snap snap*) Sorry. I couldn't resist.
But there is a fan theory that I find interesting. A little something called The Addams Family Curse. Call what you will, a blessing or a curse, but according to the theory, anyone in the Addams Family cannot die by each others hand. As you saw, Wednesday tried to harm and kill Pugsley many times throughout the film, and he came out with barely a scratch. But when Gomez was battling Tully near the end, he got scratched by Tully's sword. They can harm each other and be completely fine, but when it comes to outside forces, then they have something to worry about.
The exact nature of the Addams's "powers" if there is such a thing, is a little vague but they're basically one big gag in which they exceed or defy our expectations of a "normal" family in every circumstance. What would kill a normal person, they survive. What would horrify a normal person, they find delightful. What would delight a normal person, they find repugnant. It's a wonderful way of showing how most families see themselves as outcasts among others simply because, as we live our lives, we don't live up to our own expectations. Well, the Addams's family DO live up to every single one of their own expectations. They're completely happy with their so-called flaws, which they regard as strengths and what we see as odd, they see as tradition, to be protected at all costs. I think they're a wonderful reflection of how immigrant families feel when they move into a new neighborhood in a new city or new nation. I think the Addams Family is the perfect, spooky "cartoon" of an American family, ancient traditions from somewhere else, a far-off land that they no longer have true connections to (other than relatives) that may alienate the neighbors because maybe they've grown just a little too comfortable being "American".
Its the story of how to adapt to a new set of surroundings and still love yourselves in the process.
It was originally meant to be ambiguous on whether it was really fester.
So basically, Gordon actually is Fester
As stated, he was found by "mother", but he had gotten amnesia
The lightning from the Hurricane Irene book shocked his brain to remember
Also for the sequel, you can technically watch it in November as it takes place around there and Thanksgiving
Technically it takes place over the summer, but for some reason they have a thanksgiving play
@@fightingfaerie Guess that means Nick can watch it any time of year 😆
@@heathercraig8902 which makes it a great movie and a successful sequel.
Probably one of my favorite parts of this movie is when Gomez brings Fester to the vault for the first time. You can see that the main area is dedicated to family history and the things the Addamses really cherish. While the money is there, it's hidden behind the brandy and there's only enough time to grab what is needed before it turns back around.
By the way, did we know how they had all that money ?
@@a.g.demada5263 A lot of it is inheritance, but Gomez actually has a lot of investments and businesses (even if they hardly touch on it in the movies). Lots of stocks and bonds, too.
@@AjaofShanghai ah ok and it seems to be very well
Happy Halloween! Yep, what they were saying at the end was the truth, Gordon really was Fester, he was found in the Bermuda Triangle with amnesia. He had a few flashes of his former self as he spent more time with the Addams' (Knowing the Mamushka dance so well) and then the lightening strike to the head gave him back his full memories.
Ah, that's why he danced it that good 😮
Upon rewatch, if you pay close attention to certain scenes, such as the dance and other knowledge, Festor has, it becomes clear that he is the real Festor, well, somethings about. This isn’t obvious at first, after a rewatch, paying close attention to his behaviour and knowledge, it becomes obvious at the end.
I think the writers realized Wednesday got the biggest response from the audience because in the sequel, her role was beefed up quite a bit... and not one person complained about it.
My favorite part has always been when thing is frantically trying to communicate to Gomez, and ends up going for the spoon and spilling the cereal everywhere.
"I hate it when you stutter".🤣😂🤣😂
What I love about the Addams family is that to them they’re the norm and others are odd to the point that they just assume most “normal” people see the world the way they do. The tv series is better at showing this. Also Gomez’s clothes sometimes smoke because he puts his lit cigars in his pockets and was a somewhat dangerous stunt in the tv series where the pockets were lined with asbestos so that the actor could actually place lit cigars in his pockets. The Addams Family isn’t really a Halloween movie so I hope you don’t wait until next year to watch the sequel.
Oh, I didn't know about the cigars
One of the big things in the TV show was all the "normal" people finding them very strange or being scared but the Addamses were always oblivious to the fact they they were different from anyone else.
Nick, remember the Addams Family are the humorous embodiments of the macabre, the sacrilege, and the strange - just like Halloween is a day to celebrate those things. And the Addams Family aren't monsters (except for Lurch, the Butler). They're definitely witchy, but they're not monsters.
Lurch isn't a monster. I don't understand how you got that idea, especially when in the original series it's based on we even meet Lurch's mother at some point, who is a completely normal woman and he talked about how his father wanted him to get big in sports instead of being a butler. He is also partly related to the Addams by blood on his fathers side, so if you consider him a monster you'd have to consider the Addams family that too by the same logic
@@sardonicus1739 I thought he was supposed to be something akin to Frankenstein's Monster - a golem, as it were.
“Gordon” was really Fester. They explained that Fester had amnesia and his “mother” was taking advantage of him. The lightning brought back his memory.
Nick, you are too pure for this world. Please, oh please don’t watch the remake. we can’t lose you too.
Yeah, sequel good, remake bad.
Fantastic movie, the casting was just so spot on for all of the adams. Christopher Lloyd as Fester is fantastic and almost indistinguishable to say his Doc Brown from back to the future.
The second one "Adams Family Values" is also good fun and I think would scratch your itch to see them in a normal situation being The Adams! maybe not quite as fun as this one but close!
Gordon IS fester, when the mother is yelling at him she actually tells him that she found him, when he is struck by lightning he gets his memory back and reveals she found him in a fishing net 25 years ago with amnesia
Addams* with two d's thank you
I always recommend people watch the original show. Despite it being an older show I think it's very good and funny.
I only recommend that only cause people are so confused about this first movie .-.
And Wednesday is so cute in the original TV show.
Oh definitely! It's a bit different than the movie here. Especially Wednesday.
Okay so a little bit of history is the characters started as one panel comics and then a black and white tv series and they have always been macabe and are not monsters, but rather see beauty in the dark, disturbing, and dead everything normal people would be creeped out by and the actress of Wednesday (Christina Ricci) would go on to be Kat in Casper.
Also yes that is actually Fester he just had amnesia and I think the sequel is even better.
I think you missed where Fester's "mom" said she should have left him where she found him near the end. So yes that explanation at the end explains that he was actually Fester.
Yeah, he was talking over that line.
@@3DJapan Like most reactors. Talking over the most important lines.
I'm old enough to remember this coming out and I absolutely fell in love with the Addams family! Ah nostalgia 😁
Ah nice! Hope you enjoyed this movie! Just watched it and really loved it
Happy Halloween Tim :D
Happy Halloween, Tim!
hey timothee i am still waiting for you to react to the animated addams family movie and also the animated sequel
You might remember Wednesday's actor from Casper, which you watched last year, playing the young Kat Harvey. I knew her first from Addams Family, and next from Casper, and she later co-starred in Sleepy Hollow, among many other roles and voice-work. She was brilliantly cast here in Addams Family, taking to the 'creepy' vibe extraordinarily well.
I didn't know that Wednesday played Kat from Casper wow! Awesome!
She was good in a drama TV series about 10 years ago called Pan-Am, about the airline.
He is the real brother, He lost his memory. That's why she said "i should have left you where I found you" she didn't actually give birth to him. The lightning gave his memory back.
The Addams Family began as a series of single panel cartoons in the New Yorker in the 1930s. Basically, the idea was to show a sort’ve undercurrent of weirdness in the world.
I didn't realize it until recently, but this movie's prologue (with the Christmas carollers) is a recreation of the very first Addams Family single panel cartoon published in *The New Yorker.*
Christopher Loyd did an amazing job as Fester. Love all the facial expressions he brings to the table
"Are they made from real girl scouts?"
Brilliant Comeback.
Good news for you, you can do the second one for Thanksgiving! They touch on it so it's appropriate, you don't have to wait!
The Addams is a family who will accept and love you no matter how strange or weird you might be. Even if what you like seems strange to them they won't judge or hold it against you.
Also, it doesn't have to be Halloween to watch The Addams Family Values, it takes place in summer
Could work well for Thanks Giving as well.
Yes he was the brother the original idea was he was pretending and the family loved him so much they let him stay but the child actors were so mad at that they told them it was a bad idea so they changed it to his time in the triangle gave him amnesia.
You missed a few small hints, when she was yelling at "Gordon" she said I should have left you where I found you. And yes She really did find him with Amnesia, and used him as a Tuff in her collection racket eventually making him think she was his actually mother.
It's wonderful to see how much fun you were having all through this movie. It's based on a series of comics that started all the way back in 1938, but really became popular with the 1960's TV show.
I do hope you eventually react to the sequel. It’s one of the few sequels better than the original!
Yeah, i always liked number 2 so much more than this one, idk why
They aren't monsters lol They're just really freakin weird 🤣 My kinda folks. These 2 are some of my fave films since childhood. Classic. Happy Halloween everybody 💚🎃👻💀🖤
Maybe we can compare them with the Amish
@@a.g.demada5263 well... I suppose they do both have a tendency to wear a fair amount of black.....😅
@@pyrettablaze86 yes,and the fact the things who are normal for us, aren't for them
I'm so glad to see you enjoying this one - it's special in a... positively disturbing sort of way. Another similarly odd, slightly more modern, but unconnected movie I think you might enjoy is Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events w Jim Carey as the oddball uncle character. Happy Halloween, Nick!
Ah yes I agree, Series of Unfortunate Events is always a fun one to see people react to, the Netflix series is good too!
Thanks for the info 🙂
The young lady who played Wednesday is Christina Ricci, whom you saw in the 1995 movie Casper as "Kat", Dr. Harvey's daughter.
The Addams Family is a great movie to react to. Keep up the good work, Nick. Happy Halloween to you and to everyone on this channel.
Fun choice for Halloween! I wonder if you’ll do Addams Family Values for Thanksgiving.
If you like this movie, you should check out the sequel Addams Family Values.
Ok I have to say this and please don’t take it the wrong way, but your reaction is just adorkable! ❤
I know the Addams Family is not everyone’s cup of tea and most don’t vibe with their ‘peculiar lifestyle’ but they grow on you. And your face at anything ‘mature’ is just hilarious. It’s why I love your reactions so much.
Happy Halloween! 🎃
This is a wonderful day for Addams family. Thank you Nick! ❤
Right? Perfect way to end the night ! 🦇
I watched the 90's movies, the animated series and the old black & white version all the time growing up. I already love anything spooky and "goth" plus they're hilarious and genuinely love each other. The sequel is even better! It actually fits with Thanksgiving so you could definitely still react to it for November.
Happy Halloween! 🎃🦇💀🐈⬛👻🕷🕸🖤🧡
This movie is a classic the sequel is even better than the first one. Really glad you got to see this movie finally and the sequel you should not wait a year for.
Apparently, the original idea for the movie was that they never find the real Uncle Fester and they just take in the impostor as if he were. But, that was changed due to people apparently not liking that idea. So, the "impostor" is just the real Fester but with amnesia.
I want a relationship as strong as Mortica and Gomez cause they are
COUPLE GOALS💝💝💝💝💝
Healthiest relationship in movies
One of the little things not many people notice, but I LOVED.. in the hotel room when Morticia is telling the kids about the tortiose and the hare, Wednesday is eating a bowl of cereal, and makes a face like "what the hell is this shit I'm eating?"
He really is Fester. Your reaction was adorable.
The reason Morticia (or even Wednesday) doesn’t just expose him, in my opinion, has to do with something interesting about the Addams family. They are very accepting of anyone, really. Being a part of the Addams con has less to do with blood or marriage, and more to do with embracing the family and embodying the family spirit. In the 60’s show there was even a bit about how apparently Gomez and Morticia each thought grandmama was the other’s mother, and when they realised she wasn’t they just went on with it like nothing happened. So in that rationale, even if this isn’t really Fester, he clearly needs and wants this family, so she wouldn’t turn him away.
Glad I’m not the only one who noticed the alarm clock Gomez clearly not kissing her anywhere near the face
Somehow I just knew when they explained that it really was Fester it would go right over his head
I like how this movie goes from Christmas 🎄 to Halloween 🎃 Makes it so much fun 👍🏾
You probably know by now but the 'Grand High Witch' and Morticia are played by Anjelica Huston. :) Also Gomez was played by Raul Julià. RIP
Addams Family Values is actually more of a thanksgiving movie. It would be great if none of us had to wait a year *hint-hint* But back to your reaction, your reactions are always so genuine.
This is actually fitting because I dressed up as Wednesday Addams this year for Halloween
Hahaha so the Addams Family was originally a comic strip series, and turned into a TV show in the 1960s or so. It was watered down to match content standards in that time. This movie is a bit closer to the original comic series. The moral you're supposed to come away with is the Addams Family might be scary and different, but they also let you be different if you want to be, and applaud irregularity.
The beauty of the Addams family is that,as odd and weird as they may be, they’re at their core a truly loving, well-functioning family. They are the white picket fence dream wrapped up in spooky. This is one of the few franchises where the sequel is as good as, if not better, than the original film.
I noticed the description on the monster house video that you were reacting to the Adams family but didn't click it was this version (assumed the new one) absolutely adore this movie 😁 seen it and the sequel countless times
Love all your reactions as always and Happy Halloween to all 😊
Happy Halloween, Nick! I hope you watch the sequel! Have a great night! Aloha from Hawaii! 🌺🎃
There is a show on Netflix soon called "Wendsday", about her as a kid. Looks great!
I feel like fester started regaining his old self when he was having fun with the kids and then during the mamushka dance
Yes Gordon was Fester, as Abigail pointed out "I should have left you where I found you" revealed that he wasn't actually her son and the lightning strike restored his memories that he'd lost.
Yes, I hope you don't wait and watch the next one straight away. It's a great sequel.
The way to enjoy the Addams family is not take it seriously at all. Just apply the logic that anything that other people outside the family seem as strange, creepy and weird they see as normal and with every thing that happens in a family they go a step further.
The irony is that despite being thought of as weird and abnormal, Morticia and Gomez are actually considered the ideal couple, two people who still desperately desire each other even after 15+ years and two ( soon to be three children).
The director was originally going to end the movie unclear whether Fester was an imposter or really him but the cast strongly felt that it needed clarification and also Fester is a integral part of the franchise and the original comic strip and tv show so they made it that Fester had amnesia.
They're creepy and they're kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're all together ooky
The Addams Family.
In a couple weeks Netflix has a series starting based on Wednesday. It's directed by Tim Burton.
Hey Nick, here is some other films I think you could react to :
- The Chronicles of Narnia
- Interstellar
- Zootopia
- Harry Potter
- Rio 1 and 2
- Star Wars 7, 8 and 9
The man in the mini train is the director of the movie.
Really ?
You should still react to the sequel, who cares if Halloween is over. No reason to wait a whole year.
This family are iconic and complete GOALS!
I’m so curious, will you be saving the sequel for Thanksgiving? I think it’d be really fun if you do, I don’t want to give too much away if you haven’t already filmed the episode lmao
Gordon was NOT Fester in the original script. But the rest of the cast loved Christopher Lloyd so much that they asked the script be changed to make him the real Fester after all. So the explanation at the end works, but comes so late that it remains a little confusing.
Letting the audience in on it earlier probably would have helped, if they had come up with some device or other that showed us that he couldn't be anybody but the real Fester.
Wednesday the the character I can relate to, but I’ve been feeling more like Lurch of late.
Fun fact: Morticia and Gomez was the first couple to showcase a successful, healthy marriage on television in the 60’s
Really ?
@@a.g.demada5263 yes 🙂
Makes sense, every other couple was a bumbling husband or a wife who always nags and the couples always fighting each other, threat of divorce in the air…and then they have a heartwarming ending as if all was always well.
While Gomez wasn’t a bumbling husband, Morticia wasn’t a nagging housewife, they were both equals who were highly involved with their children, and their passionate flames of love never, ever died out. The heartwarming ending was much more fitting for them.
@@tranatkikomi6873 I wonder what is their secret
@@a.g.demada5263 seems like sex. Lol
But also, they face whatever is on their plate even when it's jarring and unfortunate. Out of the house? She's supportive, she gets a job, she gives him room to mourn and process. As soon as she's in danger, he snaps to. Back in the house? Not really a huge thing made of it, time to adjust and move on to the next thing: baby Addams 😉
I really like how Morticia and Gomez has such a loving relationship.
🎃Thank You for reacting to The Addams Family!!! Now you must react to Addams Family Values PLEASE!!! 🎃You don't have to wait until next year 🥺
I love how you said "It's just so weird" The original tag line for the movie poster was "Weird is Relative"
Christina Richi played Wednesday Adams and she was in Casper. Also Christopher Lloyd played Uncle Fester
Morticia and Gomez are total relationship goals 🥰🥰🥰🥰
My chemistry class once had a substitute teacher who looked exactly like Mrs. Adams.
The Addams Family are actually humans who break all of the rules, death does not come easy to them and they are a special kind of family with many Histories to be told. Fester was found by the doctor with amnesia and the Lightening brought back his memories, he is truly Gomez brother!🖤
I liked how they explained a couple of times how Fester is actually the brother and it went right over his head ;) . Oh well, I'm sure he knows now.
There was an old black-and-white TV show called "The Addams Family," so that's where the theme song comes from. Whenever I go to my aunts' house and they have girl scout cookies, one of them quotes, "Are they made from real girl scouts?" The first time I heard my aunt say that quote, I had no idea what she was talking about, so she showed me the clip and then I understood. So whenever I see girl scouts selling cookies, I say, "I wonder if they're made from real girl scouts."
It's telling the Fester's dedication to family is so deep and innate he'd follow his so called mother above his own desires.
Yeah I grew up watching this movie with my mom as a child I always thought myself as part of their family as weird as that may sound.
Yay, great reaction, please react to the sequel aswell it's even better than tve original ☺️☺️☺️
Happy Halloween great video for the season👍🍫🧟♂️👻🍭🎃
Nah. Gordon was Fester all along. He lost his memories in the Bermuda Triangle and was found by the doctor, who took him in as her 'child'. That's why throughout the movie, you notice how...naturally Gordon starts to integrate with the Family. How he had the same love for explosives, poisons, bloodshed, etc. How he somehow knew the moves and words to the Mumushka dance by the end of it. Because even without memories, deep down he's an Addams true and true.
Happy Halloween Nick. I hope ur having a good day so far and the movie is one of my favorites😍 Anjelica Huston is iconic
I love the addams family so much and happy Halloween nick
The sequel is PERFECT for Thanksgiving!
What a coincidence. I watched this beloved classic, yesterday. And I watch it in every October, at least 3 times. For more than 15 years. 🎃 Great work🎃
Hi, Nick. Hehe. You were "kidding" about the prize: right?🎉
Make sure you watch the sequel"Addams Family values"
You already got your clear answer. You clearly were not paying attention to the ending. Fester was struck by lightning by the hurricane from the book he opened and that woke him up after 25 years or so. Fester's fake mother admitted to him that she should have left him where she found him. That proves that he's not really her son, and it turns out he really was Fester all along. He got amnesia from the Bermuda Triangle and someone else found and raised him to be Gordon without knowing his true identity. It's all just a universal coincidence I know but remember and ask yourself this question: How was he able to adjust to The Addams and bond with them so much he gets homesick even when he took their mansion, or more importantly How Did He Know The Mamushka Dance??? They never prepared him or practiced this dance? It's a sacred Addams Ritual, he would have known the Mamushka Dance if he was not an Addams.
Yes!!! I’ve been waiting for this reaction for so long 😅 I’m glad that we can see this movie with you ❤
Omg thanks for doing this movie! And you HAVE to do the sequel!
The sequel, "The Addams Family Values" has a tie-in to Thanksgiving. If you just can't wait to watch it, maybe you could do a Thanksgiving release date. I think that the sequel is just as good as the original, and has a few quirky, new surprises that I think you'll enjoy.
Happy Halloween, Nick! 🎃
I remember watching The New Scooby Doo Movies episode that had the Addams Family in it!
The daughter is played by Christina Ricci, who is also in another dark comedy called Sleepy Hollow, which you would enjoy.
