What do you think to a new Addams Family Movie

[TheVelvetOnion]

Could we be ready for a new Addams family movie. I was thinking about this, and i feel that if we got the right director, the right cast, we could have a really good Addams movie, now nothing beats Raul Julia performance as Gomez but i think there is an actor who may do gomez justice, Also what if Tim Burton directed it, any thoughts?
Picture below is what i feel would make a perfect cast.

what about a long overdue Munsters movie?

I'm shocked that they made it back then in the early 90s.

I thought the last ones they did were as good as it's going to get.

 

[Sawyer]

I'd like a new Addams Family, but in stop motion instead of live action.

And that cast is just.... Kevin Smith as Fester?!

Last I heard the Wayan's were working on something.

 

[TheVelvetOnion]

na they need to revitalise the franchise, and munsters wont work because in my oppinion there isnt the right cast for it yet.

 

[Octoberist]

I really think that the boat for the Addams Family has came and went.

 

[TheVelvetOnion]

not so, the addams family has always been a testing ground for dark humour... of late alot of comedies have been spoof... we're (to which i mean the consumers) are moving away from Spoof, were getting board of comedies like Scary Movie, and comedies like American Pie, they have been rocking that boat for some time... But something has become appartent...Dark Comedy is coming back. The first indication seemed to be in the feel good franchise... Did anyone see Hot Rod? it uses alot of Dark Humour

 

[Octoberist]

I do believe that if you have the right people, anything could be potentially be great. I just think if there is another Addams Family movie, there would have to be some major support, like a powerful producer or director, to back the project up.

We aren't exactly getting bored of spoof , the genre is producing horrible films. I thought Hot Rod seemed more like a spoof..

The lastest trend in comedy is bromance and gross out humour.

 

[gwynplaine]

The original Charles Addams cartoons were awesomeness personified.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Someone suggested Andy Serkis as Gomez Addams and I can't really see anyone else in the part now.

 

[Majik1387]

No.

Let the Broadway show continue forward untainted with horrible dream castings that are soon to take over this thread.

 

[ross2287]

We already have two good Addams films and one that I heard was mediocre.

We don't need any new ones.

Depends on the cast, director, and art direction. I would rather see a Nightmare before X-mas/ Coraline stop motion version of the Addams Family. I would even bring back Ricci as Wednesday.

Never, ever Tim Burton. Wouldn't let him touch it.

Agreed.

I'm looking forward to the show next year.

This.

 

[Joker's Lackey]

If Live Action I would like....Joel and Ethan Coento Direct and Write.

Billy Crudup as Gomez
Cate Blanchett as Morticia
Emily Browning as Wednesday
Charlie Saxton as Pugsley
Stephen Fry as Uncle Fester
Ron Pearlman as Lurch
Lorna Raver as Grandmama
And Andy Serkis as Thing and Cousin it.

 

[Nivek]

Screw Tim Burton, hire Henry Selick.

 

[Sam Fisher]

Last I heard the Wayan's were working on something.

...and let's just hope that fell through.

 

[El Payaso]

Lol @ Kevin Smith as fester.

Btw, if Burton directs guess who'd be fired before the production starts.

 

[Episode29]

Kat Dennings as Wednesday or no ten dollars from me.

it would be such an obvious burton movie.

i wouldnt be suprised if every year for the last 10 years they are calling Burton to make this movie.

 

[Nivek]

Nope, Burton should not get this property. He's done a dozen thing like it already, it's better when someone like Barry Sonnenfeld does it, we got two great movies out of it.
