How interesting. We'll see how that one goes. Not sure if it would hold a candle to the live action movies.

I love the original series and used to watch the cartoon as a kid. I have not really cared for any of the live action movies up to this point.

I thought the live action films were okay, but the tone was totally off. For example, when the beginning of the movie opened with them wanting to pour water or whatever on the carolers. That kind of mean-spiritedness was not a thing on the original show. And I thought Raul Julia was fine, but John Astin was a legend that I doubt anyone will be able to follow, at least to my satisfaction.

But i liked The Addams Family Values from 1993. And than there was the movie from 1998 i think it was. that must not be named since it was pure crap.

I never saw the cartoons! Interesting. It does appear the films were closer than the show. I love the original show though.

I love the Charles Addams cartoons--when I was a kid, my folks had several albums of them and I've tried to find as many as I could in used book stores. There have been some recent collections of them published, but the original ones bring back my warped childhood wonderfully, lol. Try seeking them out. They're definitely blacker than the show's humor, but I'm betting they'll make you laugh a lot. (And some of them may leave you scratching your head until you spot the joke--Addams could also be very subtle at times.)

I loved the original cartoons enough to buy them in book form. I loved the tv show. I liked the first movie and tolerated the second one(too much Joan Cusack). I'll give the new version a try. I hope they get the voices right.

Yes. I will and I am surprised it has taken them this long to make another movie of 'The Addams Family' and they are going with an animated movie instead of another live action movie but hopefully it is good.
