| 1:13 | Interesting, you think of the Addams’ as being weird but not particularly futuristic. |

| 9:59 | I don’t think road trips are ever the solution to a problem. Fun, not fixing. |
| 12:11 | Love Wallace Shawn, his voice work is great. |

| 43:20 | They’ve only JUST noticed the changes in Gomez? |
| 46:36 | I mean, who hasn’t stood and looked at the Grand Canyon and wished they could blow it all up?? |
| 51:01 | Wednesday is too smart to fall for this. |
| 57:00 | Oh come on, Lurch doesn’t sing like that. What is this film doing? |

Thoughts
I don't know why I wanted to watch this one, as the previous animated Addams Family did nothing for me. But I am drawn to these kooky characters and wanted to see what they were up to. This is a weird film, the other one never felt like it needed a sequel and all this one does is stretch the limits of the characters, making them do things they would never ordinarily do. It's okay, but not worth seeking out.
