I was wondering why I suddenly got a like on this post from all the way back on page one: I’m going to laugh so hard if it’s a super wholesome family friendly thing.

Rob Zombie could actually pull that off. Even if his movies suck, he's good at writing characters you want to root for, even if they're the bad guys.

yeah, but that being said, he also cast Sheri Moon Zombie in all his films. I misread this as Sailor Moon then. Rob Zombie's Sailor Moon would be... something, alright. Somehow I see his Sailor Moon more resembling Madoka Magica. At least from Episode 3 onwards. >_>

I was talking to a friend of mine about this, and he brought up an episode of CSI Miami that Zombie directed that was visually striking. And that was after he had dropped the show, so he sought it out just to see how Zombie did as a director on a show that aired on CBS.

It's got Cassandra Peterson and Sylvester McCoy in it, and it's rated PG.
I mean, that's three things I really didn't expect from this that make me more interested, at least.

Hope he gets credited as Robert Zombie.

The tone of that teaser makes me wonder if this will have a similar tone to the two Brady Bunch movies.
Course that depends on how Zombie writes this...and if he can avoid some pitfalls he had from his horror films.

First teaser Looks alright so far. No Eddie or Marilyn? That's surprising. Part of me was hoping the whole thing would be in black and white, but I can see why not for broader appeal since this is a PG-rated thing.

This is one of the first times in a while I feel pretty confident that Rob will respect the source material, especially because it's PG. Lots of "gee gollys" and "h-e-double-hockey sticks" instead? (Watch Zombie do that as kind of a goof on himself)

Well he has the tone of the opening at least, so...good? So color, not B/W? Like The Munsters if they existed...today?

I wonder, had the internet been as prominent then as it is now, if people would have thought the same thing about the original Addams Family movie before its release. I'll wait for a trailer to make a decision to be sure. Except the original Addams comics had grim, dark humor, which was lightened up for the TV show. The Munsters OTOH were always a family sitcom. Looking back at this...I am wondering if, in 1991, there WERE complaints about the Addams movie's humor being too macabre. Which, if so, would put it alongside TMNT and Wizard of Oz as things where people remember the Lighter and Softer mainstream versions first, as such denying there was anything before. (Batman [1989] is like that, to a degree. As the Average Joe thought of Adam West when they thought of Batman, comics be damned [when SUPERFRIENDS was first airing, Bats was going back to being the Dark Knight in the comics])

Teaser looks alright for what it shows.
Herman looks pretty spot on, including how he was walking as just a big oaf and not like well Frankenstein's Monster.

I'll check it out. Think it's supposed to be on Peacock.

I'm cautiously optimistic, I guess?
If I had to nitpick, I hate that it's in color and I think Herman looks like hell, but I'm just showing my bias because I'm such a big fan of Fred Gwynne. I'm happy to see the movie looks really silly/campy and we're not getting the Munster family as redneck serial killers or whatever.

Who knew that in 2022 we'd get an edge lord Pooh Bear horror movie and Rob Zombie doing what looks like a faithful family comedy adaptation of The Munsters?
