In a way, Debbie is kind of a perfect fit to be an Addams. Also, Morticia condoning Debbie's atrocities but seeing pastels as the last straw will forever be iconic.
Absolutely agree
Yeah, if she had just not done what she did with Fester, she would have finally found her place. I quote "but Debbie, pastels" all the time. One of my all time favorite quotes.
I love how they just wish her luck before she flips the switch 😂 every lines a zinger
Her condoning Debbie always made me wonder if she really did know what was up all along in the first movie like Wednesday suspected but just respected "Dr. Pinderschloss'" scheming too much too interfere.
@@Celticbrit113yes! Also, we've seen Gomez fight, we know there is 0 chance that Debbie overpowered him so I love that, ultimately, to get in the position they were, they all must have voluntarily got in the chairs and sat patiently as Debbie went around strapping them all in. They probably strapped each other in to help!
If Debbie just hadn't been so greedy, the family totally would've embraced her. They empathized with her being misunderstood her whole life and turning to homicide as an emotional outlet.
Exactly, that's the tragedy of her character. She finally found her people, but she was too much of a narcissist to embrace them. Narcissists are never happy with any emotional attachments they make, only their own selfish gains.
The tragic irony of Debbie is that she fits right in with the family but is too wrapped up in her own baggage to ever realize it. She's so committed to her black widow scheme that she just doesn't ever seem to realize that the Addams's adore her and welcome her with open arms into the family. The only time they had any real problem with her was when she tried to separate Fester from the rest of the family. If she had just gone along with it she could have had free access to the Addams' wealth and a loving, supportive family that don't have any real problem with her violent, gold-digging ways. Even constantly trying to kill Fester isn't really a deal breaker because that's just a casual greeting as far as the Addams's are concerned.
The pastels though.
Just goes to show how parenting styles and social norms interact to have psychologically harmful effects. She had similar personality traits but not similar parenting. I mean… obviously it’s a movie script, but it’s nevertheless portraying the impact of attachment styles.
@@eskreskao to be fair, they dont seem to have any issue with Cousin It's wife's style, and she doesnt even remotely have the whole goth thing going on, so they might have been able to embrace it (as long as it didnt spread over the house)
According to psychologists, Gomez & Morticia are THE marriage goals 😂...
I heard something like that on the radio and the Munsters were in second place because of their incredibly high self-esteem and unquestioned love for each other.
I second that opinion haha
Yeah, the Cinema Therapy channel!! 😊🩷
@16taysia It's one of my favorite vids on that awesome channel of theirs. For years, I'd heard that psycholgists placed them at the top as the greatest marriage, so to have a therapist basically show and break down why through an actual psychology marriage book was perfect (and there's even stuff they didn't mention). I sent that Gomez & Morticia marriage video to so many married couples I know lol...
czcams.com/video/8sFitCMQqV8/video.htmlsi=XmIMuC438O0340U7
I generally don't disagree with you, but I mean in the show Morticia destroyed his political run by faking a black eye and saying that he was beating her. All because she was jealous of his attention being given to his own self-interests--that's INCREDIBLY toxic.
This is one of those cases where the sequel is far superior to the first film. Christina Ricci is brilliant as Wednesday, and Joan Cusack as Debbie is insanely good!!!
No frigging way. I always found this sequel to be just a mere, less interesting rehash of the first plot. Once again Fester gets manipulated by some evil woman bent on stealing the Addam's fortune. The only interesting part is the one centering on Wednesday, the rest is just... meh.
@@Mant111 "The only interesting part is the one centering on Wednesday"AND YOU CALL THAT NOTHING?Wednesday and Debbie are *EXACTLY* the reasons why this movie is better than the 1st!!You can see it like this:the 1st movie was a _sketch_ and this is the final drawing.🎨
@@Nicamon It can't be the final drawing because the Wednesday part is not the core of the story. The core of the story is Fester again and the evil nanny, and that part kinda sucks.
@@Mant111 It doesn't because Debbie is amazing.💗And BTW Wednesday is my favorite character so to me she *is* the core of the story!😎🖤
Nah, you're wrong.
Joan Cusack as Debbie is easily one of my favorite movie villains of all time. She is absolutely iconic and hilarious, and if she hadn't tried to kill the Addams (or maybe even despite that) I think they would've genuinely loved her as a family member.
"Don't I yearn, and ache... and shop?!" "Don't I deserve love... and jewelry?" "Oh, Debbie... pastels?"
She’s up there with the Fairy Godmother from Shrek 2 in my book, top tier!
I know her as the voice actress of Jessie the cowgirl from Toy Story 2, 3, and 4.
I know her as Sheila from Shameless.@@LightStreak567
That IS Harmony from Buffy. She was also the girl scout in the first movie.
I was like I thought you would later notice or discover from the first movie
"Are they made from real girl scouts?"
Morticia reading The Cat In The Hat to Pubert is so beautiful because it shows that no matter how their kids turn out, they'll always support and love them regardless. The entire through line of the story is acceptance.
Also, can you guess that the writer of this movie was gay?
I didn't guess, but in hindsight it doesn't surprise me, I suppose... But hey, the film's pretty great and that's the important thing.
Don't see how that's relevant?
@@TheOriginal_Unaleska Probably because of the trauma a lot of gay kids experience with their families rejecting them. The Addams family is accepting and supportive of all their family members no matter what.
Debbie’s final monologue with the slides is one of Joan Cusack’s best moments ever. She’s a twice oscar nominated actor, and this a funny highlight in her great work.
I constantly quote "What about DEBBIE!"
Don’t I deserve love?…and jewelry…
Completely agree.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE FILMS AS A KID!
Carol Kane as Grandma Addams, lol!
""What are you doing?"
"Nothing, just a curse on your pathetic soul. Have a nice day."
That was my favorite scene.
Huh? She only says: "Just a curse. Have a nice day."
I just love this movie. What a comforting campy classic. Too bad Debbie was so greedy, she was almost psychotic enough to get along with the Addamses.
You should watch Casper next it's perfect with Christina Ricci as the lead. Another great film for her and perfect for the month of October. Also the girl that plays Amanda was also the girl scout in the first Addams Family movie. And the cop at the police station is Nathan Lane 😂 I always hear Timon from Lion King when he says, "Who moved the rock?"
Ricci did a photo shoot as a grown Wednesday Addams in a side by side with Morticia. Holy shit!! Absolutely stunning.
I will always love that Morticia and Gomez do everything to make their children happy, even if it is far from their own tastes and lifestyle
Healthiest couple in movie history
The actress you recognised, is Joan Cusack and she was the head principle in The School Of Rock and the Voice of Jesse from Toy Story! 😊
The policeman, is the actor Nathan Lane who is the voice of Timon in The Lion King. 😊
I just love that scene where Gomez is explaining about Fester moving and all that! That whole sequence is just golden. "The Temptress of Waikiki!" just killed me xD
Nathan Lane also played Gomez in The Addams Family musical on Broadway!
Wednesday was my spirit guide to adolescence in this movie 😂 Christina Ricci deserved an Oscar. Also love how Morticia always has light reflected around her eyes. So many amazing little gothic details. Fantastically underrated movie at the time
Morticia's lighting is the best. I knew it was in the scene where she gives birth but I didn't notice how often it recurs throughout the film. Such incredible attention to detail for the sake of one long-running joke. The older I get, the more in awe I am of Christina Ricci's performance, honestly.
Yes! The lighting on Morticia’s eyes is an excellent little touch, love attention to detail and style like that in movies
Joan Cusack is the acress you can't identify but recognize. Her hair is normally dark in color.
She also voiced Jessie the Cowgirl in the Toy Story movies, in case it was the voice you were recognizing! :)
She was also Karen's mom in Shameless and the principal in School of Rock. She's been in so much and is amazing in everything!
And she played mother in looney toons( or tunes, always get confused with that) back in action.
I first saw her in Toys with Robin Williams and L.L. Cool J and then as the Doctor in Perks of Being a Wallflower 💙 I don't know why it took me so long to realize that John Cusack is her brother lol
@@dlweiss Holy smoke I never realized that!!!
When the policeman said call Ringling Brothers, he was saying call the Circus. Ringling Brothers were the founders of Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey's Circus which was extremely popular until the early 2000's when the treatment of animal regulations (specifically elephants) made them go on the decline.
The policeman was played by the marvelous Nathan Lane, so many great cameos in this movie. The camp counselors were played by Christine Baranski and Peter MacNicol who have also been in absolute wealth of things.
Christine Baranski is always great in every role she plays, and Joan Cusack is a goddess of comedy
Debbie complained about getting Malibu Barbie instead of Ballerina Barbie in a pink tutu. At that time, Ballerina Barbie wore a white tutu. So, this whole thing could've been avoided! 😄
And Ballerina Cara had the pink tutu. I had both Barbie and Cara-and I also had Malibu Barbie!
@@nancyomalley6286 I have both now! and about 3000 other Barbies!💗
The Addams family is such a healthy family. They’ve got real “found family” vibes: anyone can be an Addams with the right attitude.
Yay, you noticed Harmony this time 😂 and Debbie's actress was the principal in School of Rock, as well. This movie is amazing. Debbie would've been a great Addams if only she hadn't tried to oppose them so hard lol.
She was great as the secretary in Grosse Point Blank with her brother John Cusack too.
The Addams family is the perfect family. If everyone was like them the world would be such a interesting place.
I want to see that alternate universe!
@@nickreacts6394 :)
The Addams family are pretty much _the_ picture of a happy and functional family. I love them so much.
Also, someone calculated Gomez's wealth at ine point, and it is *_vast._*
I remember some of the critics of the Netflix show lamented that it was too edgy, too dark, the Addams family is supposed to be quirky with a dark sense of humour, but they'd never resort to torture, violence, or murder, especially not Wednesday!!! etc.
Apparently, these people watched different Addams movies. In no specific order, Wednesday would have let a girl drown for being annoying, was ready to burn her at the stake, tried to kill a baby multiple times, the family was ready to douse a group of carolers with hot oil at the opening of the first movie, a stripper is cooked alive inside a cake and they find it hilarious, Debbie is electrocuted to dust, people are buried alive in the first movie, Morticia has no issue with Debbie abusing and manipulating Fester as long as the interior design of a home that isn't hers matches her taste, Pugsley steals a stop sign and is praised for causing a crash...just to name a few incidents.
The Addams family doesn't go out of their way to commit violence and murder but it's a welcome side effect, it's welcomed when the opportunity presents itself, and the accidental death of innocent people is funny to them.
I do love the movies, I love the Addams family, love the humour but looking at the franchise objectively, the Addams, and specifically Wednesday are much tamer, less violent, and more condemning of violence and murder with a stronger moral code in the Netflix show. If 90s Wednesday had sicced a bunch of piranhas at her brother's bullies, her father would have offered her a cigar after they smooth-talked her out of consequences with the principal and Morticia would have reminded her to not release delicate, precious, cute fish into chlorinated water, it's unhealthy for the poor things 😁
The camp counselor guy was the keeper of the Vigo painting in Ghostbusters 2. Also, the main antagonist girl at the camp was the Girl Scout selling cookies in the first movie
And the female counselor was from the grinch and Leonards mother off the big bang.
He was also one of the lawyers in the Alley McBeal TV show.
He’s in the Mr Bean movie too, that movie is hilarious and it would be cool to see Nick react to it
It's funny actually, Peter Macnicol has done a few spooky movies. Ghostbusters 2, Addams Family Values and Dracula: Dead And Loving It.
Also, it's interesting that the Mr Bean movie is mentioned - MacNicol has starred in both that and Ghostbusters 2, two movies where he works in a cultural institute like an art gallery/ museum and is in charge of a painting. Random fact I know 😂
That actor's name is Peter McNichol
This is one of the only films that I love the sequel more! The extra boost of "camp" (and the camp itself) add so much more to this one. Plus Joan Cusack (Debbie) is a great addition to the cast. It's just really sad because if she had actually loved Fester she would have fit right into the family, the Addams' actually really liked her and it def hurt them when she stabbed them in the back.
That’s so true! The Addams were probably her best/ only chance at being accepted for who she truly is… if only Debbie realized the real wealth of the family all her dreams might have been realized…
Debbie going “so you can make sure I’m not a homicidal maniac” and Gomez going “of course not! You’re too young” do you know how thrilled they’d have been to claim such a young homicidal maniac as part of the Addams clan?
If you have not seen Casper, my favorite movie w/ Christina Ricci and a fantastic movie. It's my go to movie for Halloween when i have the chance.
That's the 1st movie with her I've seen. Then I saw the 2nd Addams movie and then the 1st. I got a Benjamin Button experience with her!😄
We had Casper on VHS. We watched it all the time when I was younger. It made me cry every time too lol
@@deadsetondreams1988 I have the VHS too!😊👻🤎
I’ve never seen it (added to my list now) thanks for the recommendation!
There's another movie with Ricci worth a watch - "Sleepy Hollow" by Tim Burton.
So many great lines. "I'll play the victim!" "All your life..."
Yes it was the Actress who plays Harmony in Buffy lol she was also the Girl Scout selling Cookies in the First film
A surprise cameo is tony shaloub (taxi driver on wings, detective on monk, and the alien who's head keeps growing back in mib 1 and 2) he played one of the drunk sailors
The rich girl was Mercedes McNab, and yes, she was Harmony in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. However, she was also in the first Addams Family movie. She was the girl scout that tried to sell cookies to Wednesday and Pugsley at the motel.
Man, I miss Raul Julia. Dude was brilliant.
Fun fact: Pubert was actually supposed to be Pugsley’s name when the comic was originally made! But since his name didn’t sound family friendly enough it was changed. Really nice to see the directors and writers make this nod to the source material!
That absolutely is young Harmony (Mercedes McNab.) I love this movie as much as the first. Adding Joan Cusack and the camp was brilliant.
Joan Cusack was perfect a Debbie, but then she's perfect in everything I've seen her in. She played the corporate villain in Its A Very, Merry, Muppet Christmas Movie. And she even got to play the sister to her actual brother in Martian Child, opposite John Cusack.
She was one of my favorite character actresses during the late 90s early 2000s. Anytime you see her name; you know you're getting a first class performance, as she really commits to the role. Or is it should be committed; in this cast, i can't remember
5:30 That is the always amazing Joan Cusack.
21:06 That is the also always amazing Nathan Lane.
This is definitely a rare sequel that is FAR and AWAY better and more iconic than the original.
Joan Cusack owned this role.
110%!!
Wednesday was a really good series and along the same lines and it was actually done by Tim Burton. The actress was different, obviously, but Jenna Ortega does a great job as well. Christina Ricci, the actress who actually played Wednesday in this movie, is also a character in the Wednesday series. she plays One of the teachers at the school.
Sadly the show had to go woke/inclusive and change things up for no damn reason.
@@ItApproaches I know what you mean. I find it hard to believe Wednesday would care about "misogyny and white settlers". There was more but can't remember now.
@@ItApproachesit’s funny how inclusiveness triggers so many shit lords
@@leestirling4623 I didn't personally like the writing of the series, But as far as the white settler-thing goes, Wednesday directly calls that type of thing out in the play in this movie, and I think directing misogyny or similar at her, would result in a classic addams-oneliner or comeuppance. It might be harder for a story trying to do serious plot threads revolving around it, as opposed to "as it comes" moments as in this movie, since the Addams function much better as dark comedy than anything serious IMO.
God, I wish they had brought Joel Back though. I hate the loveinterests they di bring on and Joel honestly would have been the only acceptable one. I mean, I still maintain that Wadnesday feels very AroAce to me, but if you insist on giving her a love interest, at least give ehr someone on her level!
Joan Cusack was nominated for an Oscar for “Working Girl” and “In & Out”. She’s the sister of John Cusack.
I love the lighting on Morticia’s eyes in every shot. The woman counselor was Christine Baranski. She was on “The Good Wife” and got her own spinoff. She’s originally from Broadway. He comedic timing is impeccable! Christina Ricci knocked it out if the park again. Waiting to see if you’re going to do the Wednesday series.
I dare say this is my favorite Joan Cusack role.
Same! (At least so far, even though her role in School of Rock is also awesome)
@nickreacts6394 Yes, especially the scene in Dewey's van telling him she remembers being fun and the burden of her job.
And one more thing, I loved that the whole family was the exact same cast as the first except for Grandma. In this one she was Carol Kane whom I love. She was Miracle Max’s wife in “The Princess Bride” and the ghost of Christmas present in “Scrooged”
She’s from the Princess Bride?? Wow I love that
@@nickreacts6394 yeah, she was miracle max's wife who convinced him to help bring back westley from being mostly dead. the one who kept saying "Humperdink!"
Good therapists have recognized Gomez & Morticia as the ultimate marriage goals 🖤 Debbie is played by Joan Cusak & is the perfect one to marry into that family. If course she couldn't appreciate that they embraced her & she had to go because of the pastels. & you are right. Amanda is Harmony in Buffy. So glad you enjoyed this iconic movie.
21:01 That's Nathan Lane. He's been in tons of things, but nothing in your channel's archives immediately stands out as one of them. . . Many your age know him as the voice of Timon, the meerkat in the original animated version of The Lion King (1994). He's also known for The Birdcage (1996) with Robin Williams and Gene Hackman, and The Producers (2005) with Matthew Broderick and Uma Thurman. And some might recognize him from a small cameo in Austin Powers Goldmember (2002).
The cop you recognized was Nathan Lane. He starred with Robin Williams in The Bird Cage and with Matthew Broderick in the Mel Brooks' movie "The Producers".
My favorite role he was in was Ernie in The Mouse Trap
@@calvinwcox1990 mousehunt? With Lee Evans?
@@leestirling4623 Mousehunt that's right lol mousetrap??? My bad lmao
Nathan Lane was amazing in The Birdcage, he was a comedy riot.
Wednesday's smile that scared the campmates is one of my favorite core memories from my childhood. She basically helped me develop a big part of my personality. I love being creepy and dark. ^-^ Debbie is awesome and I agree with others she actually could of found a very welcoming family in the Addams. They would appreciate her psycho killer personality. In fact in the end she was getting their approval. But she was doomed to die. Dementia is a better soul mate for Fester though. Fun fact of one of the camp counselors, the man. He was the bad guy who got posessed in Ghostbusters 2! I am so happy you saw this sequel, now on to the tv show to see how it fits!
My favorite joke in this is:
"He has my father's eyes"
"Gomez, take those out of his mouth!"
5:25 "I feel like I know this actress." You do. She's been in tons of things, but you're probably remembering her from her role as the Principal in School of Rock. She's Joan Cusack (sister of John Cusack).
"Harmony" was in the first Addams Family movie as the girl scout. the cop is Nathan Lane from Mouse Hunt, The Birdcage and The Producers remake.
It was definitely the actress who plays Harmony. And she was also in the first movie.
I loved any film with Christina Ricci in it when I was younger definitely one of my childhood crushes
This is one of my favorite comedies of all time. It's so tightly written and made, both in terms of visuals, writing and acting. A true level-up from the first film (Carol Kane as the grandma is an especial glow-up), I can't praise it enough. It's just a fantastic film, so confident in everything it is.
To this day, I still shout 'Get out the way!' angrily like Debbie does when she's having road rage 😂 In fact, so many of my favourite quotes come from this film, including;
'Yor husband iz a verry lucky maaaaan!'
'Give me a kiss' 'Give me a twenty!'
'They had sex'
'I'll be the victim!' 'All your life'
'Bachelor's beware!'
And so many more 😂
Such an iconic childhood film of mine 😂
So many great quotes 👌
As people have told you, Joan Cusack playing Debbie was inspired. If you want to see her play basically the same role (faux sweet but terrifying and murderus), but be truly evil in a very dark, real world way, the thriller Arlington Road is a really great movie for that.
nick : "the baby is protected by the gods..."
the baby is an addams
Festers love interest is Joan Cusack. She was the teacher in School of Rock. The one Jack Black fell for. She’s been in other movies too.
Honestly, Debbie found her perfect match. If Debbie didn't cross the family the way she did, she'd be living high on the hog while Fester spoiled her. I bet she and Morticia would've been besties finding new victims. 😅
Morticia and Granny giving Debbie some lessons on how to commit homicide cleanly and never get caught. And Fester would happily be the undying test subject.
@@tranatkikomi6873 Right? She totally screwed the pooch on that one.
21:06 - "Don't make me call the Ringling Brothers."
It was a famous circus - "Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus"
The actor that played Debbie is familiar because she also was the headmaster in School of Rock
One of the very very few SEQUELS that surpasses the original! LOVE this one!
love how he realized it was harmony from buffy in this one.. but not the first movie lmao
When they made the formula for the baby with the egg in it... That was a hangover cure called a "prairie oyster". It explains the babies sunglasses. I only know this from watching "cowboy bebop"
21:07: The Ringling Brothers are known for founding the largest circus in the U.S.
"Oh no! He lives.😔"
So many good lines.😂
29:48 In that exact moment Debbie was turning into Angelica's doll Cynthia from Rugrats I knew that doll was possessed
'I'll be the victim' 'All your life' is one of my favourite burns ever.
I think you know Joan Cusak from School of Rock, she was the school's director. Brillant acctress, hilarious!!
Christina Ricci is great as Wednesday, I'm glad they cast her in the new Wednesday series, there might have been plans for a second sequel but the actor playing Gomez was suffering from ill health and later died
There was a sequel (Addams family reunion)
didn't feature any of the cast from this movie to my knowledge, they brought back John Astin from the 60's series
@@joecrammond6221 the guy that played lurch came back
With a different cast, It was more of a reboot that paled in comparison.
Oh dang! Sorry to hear that he passed, Raul Julia was just perfect as Gomez
I feel cheated that I got around to watching these movies after Wednesday the show. They are so enjoyable.
I was so happy you noticed Mercedes McNab (‘Harmony’)!! You didn’t catch her in the first Addams Family movie (the girl scout), but that was understandable tbh. Even though these 2 films were only a few years apart, changes in appearance around those kids’ ages can be quite significant.
[I recently watched an older true crime show that had filmed a reenactment of the known events - Mercedes played the young woman who goes missing. That was INCREDIBLY random.]
And how funny that the summer camp “detention” center was called Harmony Hut! I didn’t remember that. It has clearly been a long time since I last watched it, because I also didn’t realize the one camp counselor was played by Christine Baranski!
Oh, I almost forgot the best one yet. Granny Addams was the on stage wife to Miracle Max in The Princess Bride as well as the Ghost of Christmas Present in the Bill Murray film SCROOGED.
The male camp counsellor was also Renfield in Mel Brooks' "Dead and Loving It"
5:31
"I Feel Like I Know This Actress"
That Actress is Joan Cusack, Nick
I was 12 when this came out, it was great then, it's still great now. Fun reaction!!!!!!!
Joan Cusack was the actress playing the killer. (Joan Cusack was the principal in The School of Rock.) There were a ton a famous names in this movie.
Debbie the psycho is played by the gorgeous Joan Cusack, she also is in Toys with Robin Williams rip and LL Cool J, a favorite of mine!
Also stars Sir Michael Gambon who we lost on 9/27/23 rip Dumbledore 😩
@@AprilLaRae My Dumbledore will forever be Richard Harris...R.I.P. him too.😭
Now *that's* a movie that needs more exposure!
When the television series was being developed, "Pubert" was considered as the name for Pugsley, but it was considered too risque for 1960's network television.
Awesome reaction, but Lisa Loring was Wednesday on original The Addams Family from 1964 to 1966, before Christina Ricci ;) That said, i love Christina Ricci in this role and the character of Wednesday is well highlighted, more than in the original series !
It's great that you liked these two films, they were both terrific feature films for me when they came out in theaters and I love watching them on Halloween
It's Christopher Hart who does The Thing
And what cast, Joan Cusack join Raul Julia and Angelica Huston, with David Krumholtz, Christine Baranski, Peter MacNicol, Nathan Lane, Cynthia Nixon, Tony Shalhoub, Harriet Sansom Harris, Sam McMurray...and Mercedes McNab and many others
No it is not Christopher Lloyd that does the thing in this the guys name is Christopher hart
@@thomasdavis5675 You're correct , I checked after posting the message and saw my mistake, I changed my initial post, thank you for noticing anyway ;)
You’re right absolutely stellar cast, especially in this sequel! Also, I hope Christopher Hart had fun playing his role, it was awesome 👌
It's funny that the Addams Family sitcom was actually considered the best family sitcom of the time. They were always loving and always got along and always stuck up for each other.
i love how there is constantly a light illuminating morticias face lol. also you may recognise the nanny from the School of rock. she plays the headmaster
Love Joan Cusack! This one was always my favourite of the two, mainly for her performance and Wednesday. I always get distracted by Mercedes (Harmony) McNab too. 😅
Plus Mercedes Mcnab (Harmony) was always great at playing mean girls
So a couple of cast notes... The cop was played by Nathan Lane (best known as the voice of Timon in Lion King) who also co starred with Christine Baranski (who played Counselor Becky) in The Birdcage along with Robin Williams 3 years after this. The main sailor in the bar Debbie goes to is played by Tony Schalub (best known for playing the titular character on Monk)
The police officer was Ntahan Lane. You would have seen him opposite Robin Williams in the Birdcage and He was also a lead in the Producers.
She was on School of Rock, also the girl from summer camp was the girl scout in the first movie.
Dude! I had to look it up! That is Harmony's actress. I have never once made that connection!
The reason why you know, her voice is because she’s in toy story, she plays Jesse
21:05 That's the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus, also known as "The Greatest Show on Earth." It's the most well known U.S. circus, active since 1871 (though with a recent 6-year hiatus).
“But what, about, Debbie?!” 😄
That girl WAS Harmony from BUFFY & ANGEL (and as mentioned below, appeared in a cameo in the first movie).
And Debbie was Jesse from TOY STORY 2+.
And the hippie babysitter was Miranda(?) from SEX IN THE CITY.
And the cop was Timon from THE LION KING.
And the horny sailor was Tony Shaloub.
This movie has a ton of talent & current/future breakout stars in its background actors. And is one of those rare sequels that improves upon the original. Was a summer hit when it came out. And that camp subplot… perfect!
The cop that you said looked familiar is Nathan Lane he was in the remake of the producers and was on the tv show modern family
1:06 - "the original Wednesday". Actually no, not even close. Th Addams Family (including Wednesday) has been around in various media forms since 1938. They have been newspaper cartoons (which is where they started), Movies (as seen here - and else where) as well as TV show characters. These two movies aren't even the only incarnation of the Addams Family to appear in the 90's, there were 2 entirely different TV series that also aired in the 90's.
Interestingly I've noticed a lot of reactors who've reacted to the new Wednesday show (which is fantastic) complain that the depiction of Gomez - at least appearance wise - in that show isn't like the one in these movies (which is all many of them seem familiar with, Addams Family wise). But actually this representation of Gomez is the odd one out. If you react to Wednesday (or indeed the animated movies or old TV shows) you'll see what I mean.
Obsessed with your content and vibe!!
Just got caught up with (almost) all of your reactions and I feel like we’re friends already ❤❤
Thank you so much from Israel 🇮🇱
The police officer is Nathan Lane (The Birdcage) and one of the guys in the bar with Debbie is Tony Shaloub (Galaxy Quest).
Without irony, I consider the script for this movie one of the best for dialogue ever.
8:55 - The actor playing "young Harmony's" dad is Chandlers boss in a number of Friends Episodes. I can't remember if you've seen him yet in your watch through.
I didn't expect the sequel(AKA the best movie)so soon!🤩🖤Let's see if you'll recognize Baby Harmony this time...🤭 08:43 - 08:47 *YES!!!FINALLY!!!* 😄
05:26 - 05:27 You do. You saw her 10 years older in"School of Rock".😁💗
In Italian they say 10:14 - 10:15 "Nice seal costume/swimsuit(in Italian we use the same word)." "Nice walrus teeth." 10:18 "Can I be the drowned one?!😁" "Yes:FOREVER.💀"
12:29 - 12:41 OK,this one is better in English 😅 but we changed it because _fortunately_ I think not many of us would have understood the joke.👃
14:45 - 14:47 Honestly I never understood _that_ joke.🤨❓ 16:16 - 16:20 In Italian he says"father"..I always thought it made no sense. 18:23 - 18:25 😆👍🖤
22:10 - 22:17 And what I hate the most is they made us hear *none* of the movies they mentioned!Only stuff I had never seen so I could not sing along!!>^
22:16 What Gary and Becky forgot to take into account is that while the movies are upbeat and happy, some of them also had protagonists that rebel against what's expected of them and refuse to conform(Ariel/Annie/Maria), Wednesday, Pugsley and Joel got the message loud and clear, the conditioning worked but just a little too well.
23:23 Someone else in another video asked why they were doing a Thanksgiving pageant in the middle of summer.
25:44 "We Gladly Feast On Those Who Would Subdue Us"
28:10 People wondered how trying to take out the family achieves when they do stuff like this everyday for fun, i imagine it's about intent, this time it's meant to maliciously harm them so it might actually work.
29:06 I like that at first it was that her husband didn't have time to spend with her cos of his job(fair)and then it's back to expensive stuff again with the next marriage.(nope! ya lost me)
31:09 Never question Wednesday.
Debbie is played by Joan Cusack who was the principal in School Of Rock
Also yes Mercedes McNab is Amanda & Harmony, I was curious if you'd recognise her
School of rock, you saw her in school of rock, im also pretty sure she played jessie in toy story 2 and onwards
