#they’re not gomez and morticia but they ARE the scene where he kisses all the way up her arm

[fernhelm]

jegulus is more fun for me when james is at least a little bit of the cocky asshole he is in canon. i think him being a tad mean-spirited would make him much more relatable to regulus. he’s a prankster! he’s puck! i think he trusts his own interpretations of how others feel more than their own words. he’s a hopeless romantic and he’s writing a script for the love confession before the convo even happens. so good thing regulus is a grade-A bullshit detector and can knock james off balance in an instant. he’s goofy and charming but he will also push and push until he gets what he wants from you. and this would of course work on regulus (attention starved), but i truly believe it would piss lily off soooo bad. there is an element of performance to his behavior. he is always doing it for the studio audience. he’s throwing out cliché lines like he’s a romcom lead. he knows he’s hot. he does that thing where he lifts his shirt up to wipe his forehead and show off his abs. it’s the guy you want to hate but also begrudgingly respect in high school, and then could actually become friends with once you’re out. he’s a jock, yknow? that’s Sir Robin of Loxley. he’s never thinking about the power differential between him and severus, he sees himself as the knight in shining armor saving lily. insane levels of self-righteousness. this is why jegulus is the type of couple to have a big blowout fight and “go on a break” every couple of months, but ultimately be together forever. it’s what james wants— a relationship where they can break up and make up a thousand times and never doubt their love for each other. he lives for the dramaaa

hello may i have some fic lore please. i am requesting a dvd commentary analysis of your favorite ever scene you've written. please and thank you and only if you feel like it <3

EVER WRITTEN? OOOH. uhhhh my favorite scene i've ever written has not been published yet (and may not ever? it's. complicated. but i won't talk about it in detail i'm so sorry) and while my favorite fic in general that i've written, like, with the whole thing taken into consideration is from the tone of your voice, i've talked about my favorite scenes from that one multiple times before, so i'll give you my 2nd fave.

which is from part one of the steddie fic i actually finished last week, which i affectionately refer to as "eyeliner steve" because that's a lot shorter than you're shooting stars from your eyes (it drives me crazy, drives me wild). i'll put the excerpt and my rambling under a read more because i will be quoting whole paragraphs, oops. also it's nsfw, so there's that.

so first of all, the alley scene in part one was the very second image that popped into my mind when, way back in SEPTEMBER, i had the conversation with @jeysuso that inspired me to write this whole entire ass fic. i really wanted to make it so obvious that, sure, while the idea behind the fic was basically "omg what if steve wore eyeliner and eddie fucked him till he cried" (happens in part 2 👀👀👀) this is still an established relationship where they're very much in love, talkin gomez and morticia level whipped and horny for each other. but the scene itself starts in the hideout:

The first time in a few weeks that Steve’s free to make it to Corroded Coffin’s show at The Hideout, there he is in the crowd, eyes rimmed with black and sticking out like a sore thumb in a teal polo. He’s got his denim jacket—he bought it because it reminds him of Eddie when they’re apart, he says—draped over his arm and he’s singing along to Eddie’s every word, knows all the lyrics by heart. He insists Corroded Coffin is the greatest metal band of all time, and Eddie knows it’s because they’re the only metal band Steve likes, but how supportive he is makes Eddie’s heart sing anyway. 

i think after time (which it isn't stated but i wrote this with the idea they'd have been dating for a year, maybe two) steve would adopt little eddie-esque pieces into his wardrobe, but definitely not in a "becoming someone else" way where he's donning a new style he's never previously had any interest in for himself. just something simple, so i chose a denim jacket, which would remind him of eddie's vest, and maybe he'd have a little corroded coffin pin on it or something. but he's still going to show up to eddie's show in what he's comfortable in, and eddie would never ever want him to change just to fit in with *his* crowd or whatever. i really like the sweet little moment i wrote to get that across, when eddie spots him in the crowd.

And Then 😈😈😈 the alley.

After the show, before Eddie can so much as get his lit cigarette between his lips, Steve is cornering him against the brick wall between the emergency exit and the dumpster, clinging to his sweat-soaked t-shirt and kissing him like he’ll just die if they part. Eddie’s come to expect this by now. He doesn’t get it, but Steve seems to love how he gets after shows, how he’s all sweaty and flushed and breathing hard and— Okay, yeah, maybe he does get it.  That doesn’t mean he’s any less amused about it as he carefully holds the still-lit cigarette at a safe distance. Eddie’s free arm snakes around Steve’s waist, pulling him as close as he can and eagerly swallowing down the sound Steve makes at the contact, using the opportunity to get his tongue inside his mouth. Steve one-ups him, because of course he does, sucking on Eddie’s tongue until he starts to feel like his jeans fit a bit tighter than they had before. 

if i had money to commission someone to draw a scene from any of my works, this would be my 2nd choice (behind the shotgunning scene in fttoyv with steve in argyle's lap but again. i've talked abt that one)

this kind of starts off the dynamic i keep in mind through the whole thing, which is: steve gets his way, eddie knows this, and wouldn't change a thing. even if eddie is technically filling the more "dominant" role, steve is the one in control of what's happening, and eddie loves giving him exactly what he wants, even (especially) if he can tease him before getting there. which also happens later. 👀

When Steve finally breaks away, it’s only because he’s trailing more kisses along Eddie’s jawline and down his neck. Eddie tilts his head, gives him some room, and has to suppress a shudder when he feels Steve’s tongue on his skin, licking a line up his neck. It shouldn’t turn him on like this but it does, he knows he’s all sweaty and gross but he also knows Steve loves it. He has it confirmed when Steve’s lips brush against the shell of his ear around a whisper of, “Eddie, you looked so fuckin’ hot tonight, under all those lights...” 

i got called out in my dms by a lovely friend for this paragraph ghfjkjgk don't look at me too close. anyway. my point here is that steve has a sweat kink. maybe i'm projecting. that's my business

Before Eddie can even get a chance to respond, Steve is sinking to his knees on the pavement, and all the words fade right off the tip of his tongue. It’s well into the night but his eyes have had enough time to adjust, and between the distant streetlights, the full moon, and the neon red of the sign above the emergency exit, he can see the man in front of him very clearly. And what a pretty picture he makes, kiss-swollen lips and disheveled hair and that fucking eyeliner, all tinted in red as he leans in to mouth at the obvious tent in the fabric of Eddie’s jeans. 

i don't even think i need to comment on this one because i just? yeah. that image. steve on his knees <3 i love it as much as steve in laps <3

but behind the curtains, we have steve doing what he does throughout the entirety of this fic, which is intentionally pushing eddie's buttons in order to get what he wants, which of course he eventually does. because they are equally as weak for each other, and steve knows he's hot. also i hc eddie's favorite color as red? but that's just me, and even if you disagree, we all know red is sexy lighting.

i really don't even have that much more to say about it ghdjgdk i'm really proud of this. and of course there's some good stuff immediately following 😈😈

Thirst Watch #1: “King Creole”

Semi-serious thoughts on the first Elvis movie I ever saw.

“If you’re looking for trouble… you came to the right place” It’s sort of a musical noir. I can’t think of another movie that combines these two genres, but it’s a great idea. More of this please! I’m a big fan of film noir, so I really liked the gritty themes and the shadows in the night scenes. Some of the shots on location were very charming and New Orleans is beautiful.

Danny’s character was written for James Dean, but it’s perfect for Elvis as well. They both straddle that bad boy/good boy line so well, but the resolution to that conflict is a tricky thing to accomplish.

The excuses for Elvis to sing at the beginning are a bit ridiculous, but the songs are great. Craaaaaaaaawfiiiiiiiiish…

Elvis pierces the screen with his charisma, but when he starts singing it’s pure magic. His acting is still a bit stiff here and there in the dialogues, but in the scene where he’s in the hospital and he has to cry I thought he was good!

I love that thing he does with his hands when he first starts singing “Trouble” and he’s a bit nervous. Also when he asks Nellie out and he stutters a little. 🥰

Carolyn Jones who played Morticia in “The Addams Family” is fantastic in her role of a pseudo femme fatale. I loved that old 60s TV show: as a child I used to watch old reruns of it all the time. She throws herself at the feet of flunk-boy Danny so soon, OMG, ahahahahah, so embarrassing, but understandable! He’s so damn cute! KING OF FLOPPY HAIR! 👑

I love all the silly faces Elvis makes in the movie, especially when he sings. So rare to see such a beautiful man doing that. They’re usually too busy trying to look hot, but not him! He was such a goof! 🤩

When Morticia drops Elvis at school, she wants to be kissed. I didn’t understand at first that she was a prostitute. His classmates make fun of him and it bothers him so much that he has to punch one of them. A bit exaggerated, but OK, they have to show that Danny can throw a punch or two.

Why on earth did they cut “Hard Headed Woman” from the movie? That song slaps. 🎸

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER When Elvis brings the other girl directly to the hotel room…. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Are you dumb, EP? Couldn’t you see that she’s a like a church girl? Nellie is kind of a meh character anyway and I didn’t care for her or for the cop-out ending where Danny is like “well, I’m not sure what I want to be”…

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER I think I would have preferred if Danny had ended up with Ronnie (Morticia) in the end. Also, now I’m imagining a parallel universe where Elvis Presley guest stars in “The Addams Family” and tries to woo Morticia while Gomez tries to chase him away! Look at that kiss! 🔥

You can totally see that Elvis is not really strumming the chords of his guitar, punching or stabbing anybody, lmao, it’s so obvious.🤦🏼‍♀️

Overall, pretty good movie, directed by Michael Curtiz who made “Casablanca”, but I bet the script has been touched upon by executives. I’d be curious to know how the novel ends. The music is great, I have listened to the soundtrack many times. ELVIS IS FREAKING HOT, BUT WE KNOW THAT ALREADY!

Favourite and least favourite things about each version of The Addams Family

 Currently just doing the ones I’m already most familiar with, will add to this another time.

THE ORIGINAL COMICS

Favourite

1) Invented the characters! Can’t not love them for that.

2) Lots of clever and dark humour including some iconic moments that later appeared in the films.

3) Gomez is drawn as actually dark-skinned...something most cartoons “based on the comics designs” seem to forget.

Least favourite

1) The fact they are a healthy family despite the creepiness hadn’t quite been established yet and Morticia seems uncharacteristically uncaring towards the children on occasion as a result.

2) While technically these aren’t Addams Family comics, Charles Addams also drew some quite racist caricatures and they tend to end up in the same collections.

3) The fact they’re one-panel comics without much dialogue does limit the amount of characterisation and plot compared to what later versions can do with the characters.

THE 60s SHOW

Favourite

1) Introduced lots of my favourite character quirks. Gomez pulling lit cigars out of his pockets and having two watches set to different times. Morticia being able to literally “smoke”. etc. The trains!

2) So many scenes of the characters just doing random stuff! Swordfighting, knifethrowing...Gomez standing on his head or hanging from the chandelier...Morticia painting or knitting...it really helps establish the characters and I just love seeing characters’ (very unusual) day-to-day lives like this.

3) This is the show that established just how much Gomez and Morticia love each other--not just the kissing/French scenes but the way they’re almost always arm-in-arm just walking about, the way he thinks her rather...unusual abstract paintings are the most amazing artworks in the world, just...everything.

Least Favourite

1) Being a sitcom, it unfortunately does put comedy over consistency at times. e.g. while Gomez’s swordfighting is never as impressive as in the films, in many episodes he still is portrayed as knowing how (and he’s near-superhuman at knifethrowing), but there’s at least two episodes where he’s completely useless for the sake of a joke. The same goes for various characters’ levels of knowledge of all kinds of things and some other character traits as well.

2) John Astin is a great actor but it doesn’t change that Gomez is being portrayed by someone not remotely Hispanic.

3) While it was progressive for its time, some stuff really hasn’t aged well. Voodoo/witch doctor tropes (straight out of Charles Addams’s racist caricatures in some cases), general portrayal of foreign cultures as “weird”, a few references to the Civil War that don’t seem to realise that the Confederacy was TOO horrifically evil and bigoted to ever be the right kind of “funny evil” for the Addamses.

THE 90s FILMS

Favourite

1) The entire summer camp plotline making fun of rich WASPs/Republicans/bigots so perfectly.

2) The increased budget just made these films really aesthetically amazing in general. The house finally looks like a proper creepy mansion, the outfits are more detailed and varied, you get to see the whole extended family together, THAT DANCE between Gomez and Morticia in the second one... but most of all, the absolutely amazing swordfighting scenes.

3) The best cast of any version...Raúl Juliá’s performance will always be my favourite Gomez portrayal, Anjelica Huston is amazingly sinister...but the biggest improvement compared to the show is Christina Ricci, obviously Wednesday is older in the films and it’s easier to find a good 11-year-old actress than a 6-year-old so this is not meant as an insult to Lisa Loring, but having a much more capable actress in the role allows for so much more to be done with the character.

Least Favourite

1) Pugsley becoming a sidekick who isn’t as much of a genius.

2) Both films focus heavily on Fester, who I don’’t hate, but he is my least favourite character, and Gomez and Morticia were very much the main characters of the show.

3) In general the mad-science aspects of the Addamses are downplayed here in favour of the supernatural and aesthetically old-fashioned aspects...and I love those aspects but I find it more entertaining to have the contrast of them also building robots, computers, rockets better than NASA’s,  etc...

THE MUSICAL

Favourite

1) All the political humour! I’m still bitter because a Munsters fan claimed that the Addamses would be Republicans because they were rich (as a “our fandom’s superior” thing), OK? This more than any other version disproves that with a lot of mocking of the right-wing. Mal calls them “creeped-out, left-wing Spanish weirdos” as an insult but I honestly think they’d take it as a compliment.

2) I don’t normally even like musical-style songs, but The Addams Family is a nonsensical enough series already for it to work and some of the songs are truly amazing.

3) Lots of very funny dialogue. Gomez seems to get most of the best lines here...Alfonso the Enormous, for instance...or discussing his ancestor who was burned at the stake as dinner-table conversation.

Least Favourite

1) The touring version in particular, but both to some extent, makes Morticia unusually harsh--not just in terms of the misunderstanding that forms part of the plot (I can accept that the characters won’t always get on perfectly all the time! In fact, I wouldn’t want them to!) but just randomly sometimes? Like, treating her as if she’s always disliked Grandmama and held her in disdain? Where did that come from? That wasn’t in any previous version that I know of.

2) The Broadway version has the song “Where Did We Go Wrong?” which feels like it has character inconsistencies with most previous versions. Lines like “we did all that we could to keep her sad”...OK, so Morticia seems to enjoy being “unhappy” sometimes and they talk about a “gloomy”-looking room as a good thing, but...none of them, including Wednesday, were ever previously depicted as sad all the time, wanting to be sad all the time, going out of their way to make the others sad, or seeing happiness as a bad thing. Morticia even talks about what a “happy colour” black is in the show, Gomez in the films has lines like “to mirth, to merriment, to manslaughter”, and if someone is actually sad about something the rest of the family generally worry about them and try to help (which is even the case later in the musical with Gomez worrying he’s made Morticia upset)...it feels like the writers went “they like dark things!” without actually checking how they feel about specific things in previous versions.

3) OK so... That giant squid plotline in the Broadway version. [NONCON TW].

Now, anyone who’s spoken to me about Wesker might know, I have nothing against tentacle sex. Far from it. But it has to be consensual! Mal gets dragged off with no idea what’s going to happen to him, even though he’d expressed some kind of interest in the squid he doesn’t actually say he wants sex with her, and while we don’t know exactly what happened between then and his next appearance, without seeing him give consent and seeing him get dragged off like that...it comes across more noncon than was maybe intended. And then we’re told “oh actually he enjoyed it and it made him less uptight”...I do not like the way this is handled and I’m glad the touring version of the script changed this plotline.

Introducing: the girlfriends — Lace

Hello cherry blossoms!

Since the girlfriends will feature as original characters in some of the pieces I’ve planned, in this small serie you will find some general information about the girls, presented with their aesthetics. Here you will find Taehyung’s Lace. She will also be featured, together with Princess, in the next piece so I think this introduction will help you get acquainted with her as a character.

NSFW material included. Read at your own risk.

Here you can find my masterlist :)

Enjoy!!!

Lace is a lady through and through. She is tough and elegant, apparently cold but extremely affectionate with those she loves. She is close friends with Vixen. During her university years, she was Princess’ flatmate, even though they got out of touch because of Princess moving out of the neighbourhood and both of them getting really busy with their jobs.

Just like Princess, Lace too works in the fashion industry, more precisely she is a shop assistant — soon shop manager — in a store of an extremely famous and expensive brand of lingerie. She is also a skilled tailor and has her own lab where she makes customised lingerie: she dreams of it becoming her main occupation someday. She is maybe the same age as Taehyung or a couple years older.

In terms of physical appearance, she is curvy and quite “fleshy” — imagine a diva from the Sixties like Liz Taylor or Sophia Loren. She perfectly knows how to wear her curves, chinching her waist and pushing up her breasts in tailored corsets and bustiers, however she is often dressed up in pretty and elegant vintage style, complimenting her sinful physique in classy and modest outfits. She most definitely has love handles and round, soft hips: her body is the definition of femininity and she struts in it like a model. Her confidence is what makes her look so sexy, even if society might not approve of her body.

Taehyung has a very soft spot for her body; he loves the feel of her under his fingers, gripping her flesh. He loves the texture, consistency and the concrete materiality of her, her body making her look like a diva (and totally his wet dream) but also feeling so real and carnal.

Lace and Taehyung are basically a real life example of Gomez and Morticia Addams. They’re passionately, foolishly, sinfully in love with each other. He worships her like a goddess and follows her with heart eyes like a tail-wagging puppy. Lace might look like a cold minx, but behind closed doors she literally adores him, in every possible way.

Taehyung fell for her with a coup de foudre — as if struck by a lightning — literally love at first sight. Lace was more wary about her crush: she takes it easy because she is awfully afraid of the intensity with which Teahyung entered her mind and her soul, and she hopes that such power is not a spur-of-the-moment kind of thing.

Their dates include mostly art galleries and parks, but also old movie marathons, which she watches for fashion inspiration and for their dreamy romance. During said marathons, they lay side by side, with Taehyung’s hand toying with her hair, and Lace’s nails gently scraping against his nape. Sometimes they watch a film they have already seen so that they can make out without missing out on anything. Expect romantic getaways. Lots of them. Taehyung loves big European cities such as Paris, London, Amsterdam and Prague, and Lace likes following him whenever she can, enjoying a few days of art and food and steamy romance.

They are not afraid of being affectionate in public: at the beginning she is a bit shy and cold, but as she gets used to continuous public exposure, she grows more comfortable and daring, indulging Taehyung in his very public gestures of affection. He often places his arm around her waist, leaning down to whisper things in her ear, exchanging flirty smiles with her and comfortably placing a kiss on her lips every now and then, though I think they leave more thorough tongue tango for the bedroom. Yes, they are king and queen of making out, and if they’re tipsy enough, they would most definitely do that in front of friends and acquaintances, not really caring about by-standers.

Taehyung is her little cuddlebug, hugging her and rubbing his face against her chest whenever he comes home after a bad day. He likes it when she scrapes his scalp gently, as if petting a cat, and when she tuts at him because he’s tickling her with his hair. Her affection is often very sensual, with nails drawing patterns on his naked skin, always trying to get beneath his clothes, where she can feel his warmth and the goosebumps she causes with her touch. On the other hand, Taehyung can be extremely playful and innocent in his affection, drawing every feature on Lace’s face with his fingers, kissing her head and rubbing his face against her chest and neck to feel her skin against his lips and the peculiar scent of her perfume. He gifts her a lot of presents, from small inexpensive ones to extremely costly items — yes, you can guess what they are.

Lace is Taehyung’s girlfriend and lover — she perfectly embodies the duality of a refined, confident lady, and the kinkiest freak in the sheets — giving him the love and support of a relationship and the sinful desire of an affair.

She is a domme. During her university years she went through hard times which brought her closer to the BDSM culture. Through learning dominance and discipline in fields like bondage and sadomasochism, she gained strength, maturity, self-esteem and confidence. Her aplomb and savoir faire attract Taehyung immensely, and he gladly lets her take control every now and then; however since their very first encounter, Lace felt something change within her when she was around him, and her sudden willingness to yield to Taehyung made her realise that he was a man she’d gladly be submissive and sell her soul for. Even though there’s not much power imbalance between them, they do partake in extremely daring practices, involving principally sensation play and various forms of bondage, but occasionally also impact play. They experiment with several varieties of sensations, from temperature, to tickling, to pinching and grazing. Their tactile dimension is very strong, and both like focusing on touch during foreplay and intercourse, which often leads to blindfolds or making love in a completely dark room. On the other hand, they both enjoy watching and being seen, in a magnificent combination of voyeurism and exhibitionism. It isn’t rare for them to sit at the opposites end of the bed and masturbate in front of each other. Their "blind" sensorial explorations and their openness have removed shame from their relationship — Taehyung's extremely thorough perlustrarion of Lace's sensitive body allow him to play her like an instrument with sage, talented fingers.

Lace likes showing her submission through blowjobs, especially with Taehyung standing on his feet while she’s kneeling before him. Taehyung likes tormenting her with long edging sessions before making her come undone round after round, with his fingers, mouth and cock. He especially enjoys wrecking her, using her toys to stretch her out, but also making her cum before he enters her, enjoying her tightness after an orgasm. He experiments without prejudice, sometimes improvising extravagant tricks to turn her on in some genial way. He is ruthless, but also fully and recklessly devoted to Lace’s pleasure, his only goal seeing her spent and naked on his sheets, possibly with his length still sheathed inside her. No matter how harsh or soft the scene, their ultimate goal is the sense of unity they feel once they’re done and ready for a nap or for sleep. Napping while cockwarming is a must: they won’t stop until they’re completely spent and once they've finished, they simply lay there, looking at each other, exchanging small kisses and feeling like one single soul without a body.

Taehyung sleeps thrown all over Lace and although at the beginning she’s not entirely comfortable, especially since he’s a furnace in his sleep, after a while she gets used to having him cuddled into her side, pushing his face into her neck and hair while his arm and leg are wrapped around her middle and her hip. And for the problem of being too hot, well... She just forgoes clothes. Which is extremely useful when he wants to wake her up with his mouth around hr nipple. Or between her legs.

In conclusion, Lace and Taehyung are a very passionate, vey intense young couple, whose relationship is based on an attraction that goes beyond looks and digs deep into the very essence of their character, reaching an almost religious devotion and sacred adoration. Taehyung is charmed by Lace’s magnetism and composure, while Lace is deeply enthralled by Taehyung’s consistent and reliable admiration for her. A satisfying sex life is perfectly matched with the quiet way they show each other support, but most importantly by the way Taehyung’s introspection and artistry plunge into Lace’s sensitivity, showing her a level of understanding she has never felt before. They’re both highly sensitive to the other’s emotion and this spiritual connection, put together with the physical one, offers them a sense of unity that makes them comfortable and completely open to each other.

THE ADDAMS FAMILY

A Review of the First Page(s) by Rebecca Jean-Carroll

Screenplay by Larry Wilson and Caroline Thompson

Shooting Script: April 11th, 1991

Source: IMSDB - http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Addams-Family,-The.html

Just a quick(ish) note about this blog...

I shall be using this blog as an opportunity to look over some of the great scripts that are available and dissect those opening pages to illustrate the quality we are all competing with. A few concessions must be made up front. The vast majority of what is available out there is big-budget work from established screenwriters. These are people who are not exactly fighting for attention. However, they still have the same hurdle to conquer, all their readers and all their audience need to be satisfied from page one.

Secondly, these may be screenplays far beyond the point of early drafts, even shooting scripts. So, they might very well be filled with all the things this website is going to insist you NEVER DO. We're talking camera direction, the references to music and the indication of credit sequences etc. I will never discuss the amazing camera angle notes and the transition shots in this blog and that is because we're all just going to pretend that they are not there. Everything outside of this, now that's fair game, this is where we should all be aiming for.

Finally, the formatting, I won’t always be able to acquire screenplays in the correct format. IMSDB is a brilliant resource but it’s not the absolute best demonstration of acceptable formatting. Let’s also not forget, the older the screenplay, the older the rules. Take with a pinch of salt what you see and note my reviews will tend to focus on the things we can all aspire to. I hope you find this blog useful and please do comment or ask questions to get the conversations started.

Now for the Review:

Opening Image

A group of carolers belt out a classic Christmas carol with "self-righteous good cheer" waiting for someone to open the front door and donate to their worthy cause. The black wreath, the broken windows and the weather-beaten shingles are a very good indication of the types of personalities we're about to find housed here. The Addams Family "gleefully" pour a cauldron of boiling pitch from the rooftop of their very imposing and creepy looking mansion.

What's so great about that?

In two paragraphs the writers have set up the world beautifully. The normal and the abnormal? What's more the writing lures you into the sense of humour of the whole thing. Those self-righteous carolers are about to get precisely what they deserve... at least according to the gleeful Addams family. This is a family that plays very much by their own rules and their own sense of reality. Pouring boiling pitch on carolers is funny in this world. 

In two paragraphs the audience knows precisely what they're in for; the world is to be flipped. The creepy people are the heroes, the darker the better, bad is good.

If the premise hadn't quite convinced you...

We switch to the view of a giant cuckoo clock that is essentially a replica of The Addams Family house. This ingenious device introduces the entire family and establishes a few behaviour traits that we can expect throughout the film. The devotion and humorous passion that is Gomez and Morticia Addams; "Little Mechanical Gomez plants a kiss between her clockwork décolletage".

Then there's Thing

Surely an animated dismembered hand that can run and scamper down hallways has got your attention now! Albeit, if you're a producer you're probably starting to see the dollar/pound signs.

So, what's this all about?

We understand the world, we understand the rules of this world, we know a fair bit about certain characters already and now we're about to find out what this whole thing is going to be about. Fester Addams. Gomez's long-lost brother. This last scene lingers in a cob-web filled room, a shrine to a lost brother, headless sports trophies and photographs from high school. Continuing this theme that these characters are somewhat at odds with the world outside their front door. It is clear Gomez misses his brother, it is apparent these two were close in their youth, yet now grown up Gomez radiates in "unfathomable woe" because Fester's not here.

Oh! So, that's what this is all about!

We know now that Gomez wants his brother back and it's this goal that continues to push the story forward throughout the piece. Gomez wants to re-establish this kinship again. It’s not exactly Gomez’ flaw as a character but it’s definitely something that makes him vulnerable to the situation that is going to unfold in this story i.e. He can be manipulated by other characters through his devotion to Fester. It's also reminiscent of how tight this family really is. The threat established here is maybe his brother truly is lost, which would leave the Addams Family forever incomplete.

Just two pages and an entire (brilliant) film is born!
