character development™ - Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)

[theblacklistforever97]

I literally just picture Evelyn & Patrick in American Psycho as Wenclair's dynamic 💀 😂. The way their dynamic would totally match up with Enid/Wednesday lol. Enid planning the wedding & Wednesday being like "whatever". And there's that Reese Witherspoon reference again. The way Enid is literally late 90's/early 2000's Reese Witherspoon...

I am a gomefication of Wednesday hater and lover. Idk how to explain this but I can see Wednesday having dramatic love confessions and going to extreme lengths to make Enid happy, yet at the same time I don’t see her being exactly like her father. Wednesday is a reserved person she wouldn’t do PDA or loose her common sense over Enid, in a way she would be like her mom but also not really. Like she is the combination of both of them and she is her own person, we don’t have to make her fit into her parents relationship dynamic we can just create a new dynamic for them to be their own ship. Wednesday doesn’t need to be either Gomez or Mortician she can be her own person and have a different dynamic. But that’s just my random opinion and I would continue to read gomefication and antigomefication of Wednesday fanfics.

this is the weirdest live action remake i've seen in my life

[theblacklistforever97]

Both schools have archery 🏹.

Both schools have similar architecture.

10 Things I Hate About You VS. Wednesday

This is getting weird.

After my Mean Girls post, I began thinking about how 10 Things I Hate About You would fit the world of Wednesday & I couldn't believe how right I was! 10 Things I Hate About You is the teen version of Shakespeare's play, "The Taming of the Shrew," where Bianca is unable to date until her sister, Kat, finds a suitor as well. All seems lost until Patrick Verona arrives with interest.

-Cameron is a new student at the high school similar to Wednesday as she arrives mid-term.

-Both schools have similar architecture.

-Both schools have archery.

Ms. Perky (Guidance Counselor) = Principal Weems

"Nine schools in 10 years. My, my." -Ms. Perky

"Eight schools in 5 years." -Principal Weems

Patrick Verona AKA Xavier

-Patrick Verona was literally the inspiration for Xavier & his whole tortured artist thing since he and Kat have a scene together throwing paint at one another.

-Saves Kat from falling off a table & potential concussion like Wednesday when the statue almost falls on her and Xavier saves her.

-Buys Kat a guitar with money left over from the bet (at the end of film) like Xavier buys Wednesday a cell phone (end of season).

Bianca Stratford AKA Enid/Bianca

"There's more to her than you think. Look at the way she smiles, and look at her eyes, man. She's totally pure. You're missing what's there." -Cameron

-Bianca Stratford, Kat's sister, and splitting image of Enid Sinclair: wears shades of pink/red girly clothing & is bubbly and upbeat which is the complete opposite of Kat.

- Both of Enid's names literally mean purity.

-We literally have a character in Wednesday named Bianca who does share a scene with Wednesday about how she doesn't care what anyone thinks during a small scene with Kat/Bianca & this very subject.

-Bianca has a friend named Chastity who the writers may have switched some traits between Bianca & her and gave her Bianca's name & Patrick/Xavier as a love interest.

- Bianca is looking for a French tutor & though Cameron doesn't know the language, he promises to learn to tutor her. Reminds me of Morticia/the Addams family knowing the French language.

- Mention of a breakup between a random couple again on the quad. Totally not random that Nevermore Academy also has a quad where the final battle goes down.

-Bianca mentions Kat should try a change in her appearance that reminded me of Enid commenting on Wednesday's dress that she arrived at the school with & how it was a hazard.

-Investigates Kat's room for dating information. Could potentially be something later on.

-Convinces Kat to go to a party and be normal just like Enid does several times in Wednesday like with the Poe Cup, etc.

-Bianca & Patrick do share one moment/scene together where he asks Kat "who knocked her up".

-Ashamed to be Kat's sister which definitely lines up more with Bianca in the beginning of the season rather than Enid who was open to being Wednesday's friend.

-Punches Joey in the face and defending Cameron/Kat similar to Enid wolfing out & stopping Tyler from attacking Wednesday in his Hyde form.

Katarina "Kat" Stratford AKA Wednesday

-Kat literally represents everything about Wednesday: her cleverness, wit, rebellious attitude.

- "The way you expressed your opinion to Bobby Ridgeway? By the way, his testicle retrieval operation went quite well." -Ms. Perky to Kat

This is literally a parallel to Wednesday setting the piranhas on the boys terrorizing her brother and how its later said the boy lost one testicle. However, Kat's situation with Bobby was caused by kicking himself in the balls. I see you writers 👀. In addition, Kat aids Ms. Perky in a synonym for a word she is looking for as she's writing an erotic novel. Another parallel to Wednesday though she's all about crime.

-The way Julia Stiles (who plays Kat) moves her facial muscles & her eyeballs to represent emotion just radiates emotion. Just look at the scene in the music store!

- Likes feminist prose while Wednesday has Mary Shelley as an idol she's trying to best.

-Gets called a psycho by her sister for maiming a vehicle.

-Big dance scene at a party where Kat knows how to move her body!

-Mother issues similar to Wednesday with Morticia.

-Kats plays guitar, Wednesday the cello.

-People are scared of Kat/Wednesday.

-Kat says her father wants her to be someone she's not (like Bianca) which reminded me of Wednesday's conversation with her mother about how she'd never be a housewife, a mother, etc.

-"The impressive patriarchal values that dictate our education." -Kat Stratford

“So you were guided by latent chivalry, the tool of the patriarchy, to extract my undying gratitude?” -Wednesday

Just wanted to get my thoughts down. There's even more references & ideas to other films where I bet the writers drew inspiration from that I may post about soon. I hope people are enjoying these little tidbits. Till next post! 👋. PS: This post is for you @karmaajr

[theblacklistforever97]

And something else I just thought of: Gretchen's iconic quote "that's so fetch" is literally a dog/wolf pun! Definitely a mind-blowing parallel in my mind to Enid 🤯.

Mean Girls VS. Wednesday AKA Enid Sinclair = Gretchen Wieners

"Gretchen Wieners knows everybody's business. She knows everything about everyone." -Janis Ian

Remind us of anyone??

Enid Sinclair/Gretchen Wieners are both gossip queens of their schools.

-Enid has her own gossip blog.

-Also, Gretchen gives Cady the info of the school & its cliques similar to Enid with Wednesday - considering both Cady & Wednesday are new students.

- Cady dresses up as an ex-wife to a zombie. Sounds like something Wednesday would do.

-"I'll never tell Regina what you said. It'll be our little secret." Similar to Wednesday sharing a sacred memory of what happened to her pet Nero & Enid saying she'll never tell anyone.

-Jason goes out with someone else just like Ajax at the Rave'N dance.

-Gretchen & Enid give it their all to gain the affections of Jason and Ajax.

-Enid & Wednesday dress up like cats for the Poe Cup like Gretchen for the Halloween party.

-And isn't it funny that Wednesday's pet was named Nero (Roman Emperor) equivalent to Gretchen mentioning Caesar & Brutus in her essay to the class when totally done with being under Regina's foot?? I see parallels...

-Gretchen is ALWAYS on Regina's left just like Wednesday told Enid to be on her left in one scene.

-Wednesday uses Enid as a source of info for her investigations (concerning Xavier, Bianca) just like Cady with getting info about Regina's private life.

-Gretchen attempting to turn the radio off with force ends up hitting Jason in the face comparable to when Enid and Ajax are making out & she almost scratches him with her claws.

-Gretchen & Enid both have anger issues with Gretchen losing it over Regina's constant rejections and Enid destroying a school bus when Ajax fails to show for their date. Definitely potential foreshadowing for a falling out between Enid & Wednesday too.

-"The meaner Regina was to her, the more Gretchen tried to win her back." Sounds similar to when Enid & Wednesday had their argument & the aftermath with Enid visiting their room 3 times in 24 hours.

-Gretchen lacks an identity all film. In her last scene, she's in another group but still trying to figure out her place just like with Enid in between the normals and the Werewolves.

Did anyone see how there is a paw print in the same shot as Gretchen that says "lion pride" 👀...

This post is for you!!! Enjoy 😉.

A SINGULAR black nail? Holy shit guys sound the alarms cz the wenclair fandom finna get FEDDDDDDD this season omfg

Also noticed that Enid has physical traits being altered due to Wednesday, speculation mostly, like her hair now has bangs.... hrmmm... and now she paints her nails black! The thing Wednesday has changed due to Enid isn't anything physical. Wednesday changed emotionally and developed through the show mostly all because of Enid.

Short story short, wenclair complete eachother and im too lazy to go into a bigger in depth analysis (yet. I may do it another time heh)

[theblacklistforever97]

Enid Is The Stalker

After watching Wednesday, i couldn't help noticing the many parallels & nods to other erotic/psychological thrillers of the 1990s. A lot of them pointing to elements from these films that concern Wednesday's friend & roommate - Enid Sinclair.

All of these films specialize in obsession, stalking, and desire - with obsession and stalking being the many themes discussed during S1 of Wednesday. Wednesday, herself, asks the question to her uncle Fester after discovering him following her. In another instance, Morticia mentions to Wednesday how back in her Nevermore days, Garrett Gates developed an obsession on her & wouldn't accept her rejection.

How does this concern Enid?

Let's look at our first example: The Crush (1993)

The Crush (1993) tells the story of a writer named Nick Eliot who rents a room in the home of a married couple with a 14 year old daughter named Adrian Forrester. Adrian repeatedly shows her interest in Nick as the movie moves along until he rejects her because of their age difference (her being 14 and him 28) and begins dating a photographer, Amy, at his new publication job.

There is a scene in the film where we see hands (obviously Adrian's) block an outside vent of a house where Amy is developing photographs; until these hands put a bag of wasps in the vent that attack Amy until she's knocked out cold (but miraculously knocks out the glass of a window to get help).

Although these are wasps and not bees like in Wednesday, they are purposefully there to show the development of a friendship and ending of one, especially with Enid commenting on her fear of being stung.

Another example from the same film is an altar. Similar to the altar Enid and Wednesday discover of Joseph Crackstone in the Gates mansion and Enid doesn't hesitate to say how creepy it is.

During the final moments leading to the confrontation scene between Nick & Adrian, he discovers an altar dedicated to him (with his name displayed) & bunch of candles, flowers, etc. Again, another parallel and definite foreshadowing for Enid potentially making an altar for Wednesday.

Final example from this film: The Forrester's Attic

During the final confrontation between Nick & Adrian in the attic of her house, it eerily resembles Enid & Wednesday's dorm room with its coldness, old wooden flooring, and a carousel with lighting Similar to Enid's side.

Single White Female (1992)

Another interesting film that caught my eye was Single White Female (1992). After having spilt from her fiancé, Allison seeks out a new roommate (after a montage of various stereotypes of lesbians) until she picks the late and final one, Hedra. They become very close until, of course, Allison's fiancé returns & they get back together. Thus begins the hostility and envious behavior Hedra portrays to keep Allison at her side.

A scene that caught my eye & raised eyebrows was right out of Wednesday. Allison arrives in the early hours of the morning to an angry Hedra who asks, "Where the hell have you been?" Allison replies with how she feels like she's sixteen again with Hedra resembling her father.

Literally, in Wednesday, it's the exact same scene in 1x03 where Wednesday is confronted (after arriving late) with a stressed Enid yelling "Where have you been!?" Although no expletives, it's the same intention & an interesting one at that.

Within this same film, Hedra comments how Allison is "in a different league" than herself with her personality & style. Later, at a hair stylist, Hedra surprises Allison with the exact same haircut she has & Allison discovers in a later scene how Hedra has been buying the same clothes she owns.

Similarly, in Wednesday, we've seen BTS photos of S2 of Wednesday where Enid has changed her style completely. Gone are her clothes of S1 & this is where I definitely think we're on the road to for her journey: stalking and obsession of Wednesday Addams.

Final example: Basic Instinct (1992)

A crime novelist, Catherine Tramell, (obviously a nod to Wednesday also being an aspiring novelist) is being investigated by a detective Nick Curran concerning a murder of a rock star. Where the connection to Enid comes in is with Catherine's connections to fellow side (but important) characters Roxanne "Roxy" Hardy (Catherine's friend & lover) and Beth Garner (Nick's psychologist & lover).

Including the setting of the film: San Francisco (Enid's birthplace).

Roxy is shown to be romantically close to Catherine and the same goes for Catherine as she uses her subjects for inspiration for her crime novels. It's revealed Roxy was imprisoned for killing two of her younger brothers with a razor (reminding me of Enid's claws) as Roxy was jealous of the attention they received from her father.

It appears Enid has four brothers but it's an interesting thought all the same since members of the Addams family seem attracted to the disturbed.

In the film, she's possessive, protective, and jealous as she sees Catherine show interest in Nick until Roxy decides to kill Nick (while posing as Catherine in her own car) as she runs him over until she gets into a car accident and Nick discovers the deception.

Again, this scene was taken right out of the film with Mayor Walker getting hit by the blue Cadillac the same way as Nick with Roxy in Catherine's car.

Here's where it gets juiciest: What Catherine tells Nick right after the death of Roxy that concerns Beth Garner & Catherine Tramell.

The interesting connection between her and Catherine, in Catherine's words, consists of them going to college together, sleeping with one another once, and Beth "developing a fixation" on Catherine as she dyes her hair blonde and wore the same kind of clothes Catherine did. Though Beth says she dyeing her own hair blonde was nothing to do with Catherine and that it was the other way around with Catherine with the obsession.

These are just my thoughts on what the future holds for Enid & Wednesday and I'm curious for what the future will be for these two. More thoughts may come.

Enid is the Stalker - Hear me out

Imagine if next season where Wednesday is trying to track down her stalker, the whole season is just this game of cat and mouse and all clues seem to point to Enid but Wednesday refuses to consider her as the stalker for obvious reasons.

But it turns out that she is the stalker. And that it was Enid’s way of trying to court Wednesday because we all know that Wednesday isn’t traditional in any sense of the word, or her family for that matter.

And Enid does it to stand out and impress the macabre girl

“my deviousness has finally rubbed off on you” Remember how impressed Wednesday seemed through her tone of voice and body language, with the hint of a smirk.

A semester of acting innocent and constantly misdirecting Wednesday, tell me that wouldn’t both impress and enamour Wednesday towards the wolf. 

(Future Conversation how about they got together)

“So how did you and Enid get together?”

“She spent a semester stalking me, threatening me and getting the best of me at every turn (Smirks slightly) How could one say no to such courtship?” 

I could literally picture it. It would be one of the most Addams way for them to get together

[theblacklistforever97]

When you think about it, Betelgeuse has probably been providing or helping Lydia with ghost hauntings for Ghost House and making sure Lydia won't be lacking of "clients" and content for her show.

Beej supporting his wifey even from the Afterlife. The Juice even "hired" a whole department of shrinkers (shrink heads?) to manage all the newlydeads wanting Betelgeuse's professional haunting expertise!

From someone who just stays in his grave, sitting on his ratty couch, in his robe, and searching for potential clients from reading the obituary, probably taking up jobs whenever he feels like it because his profession as a bio-exorcist is uniquely his own and definitely not into the whole bureaucracy crap he did when he was Juno's assistant all those centuries ago, a real loose cannon...

To someone who has his own employees, a huge ass office, and mainstreaming his services where the newlydeads and other ghosts were now demanding his work 24/7!

All those centuries of his bio-exorcist schtick before meeting the Deetz-Maitlands, Lydia especially, and he changed his whole work ethic maybe around the same time he found out about Lydia's new career as a ghost haunting show host and exorcist (maybe not exorcist, but she talks to them and makes the arrangements for both living and dead to coexist).

I won't be surprised if in one of Lydia's visits to the haunted houses, Betelgeuse is there and just watches her work. Maybe make himself appear for a split-second to scare or just "say" hello to Lydia, lol. Betelgeuse is such a sucker for her, so obsessed loyal to Lydia that he didn't even try to make another alive person marry him. If he ever gets married (a second time), it's only gotta be with Edgar Allan Poe's daughter (I'm referring to Lydia, btw).

Anyways, basically they're work spouses. Even though one of them doesn't know it, and the other has been pining for the last 30 or so years.

[theblacklistforever97]

Saw this and couldn’t resist posting it. The Wednesday affect…

[theblacklistforever97]

The way Enid is starting to look like she came out of the film "Single White Female" (1992) though 👀........I see you writers.
