Addams Family Values (1993) dir. Barry Sonnenfeld

the child is so funny to me because he’s a weird little gremlin with unimaginable mystic powers but he’s also basically a toddler. He can pick up a giant furry space rhino with his mind but can’t climb stairs. His only article of clothing is a dish towel that’s way too big for him and people just keep picking him up and putting him places because he’s the size of a rotisserie chicken. He gets plunked down in a cockpit or a classroom or a shrimp farm and he just goes “well, guess this is my life now.” He has killed a man but if you get tired of him you can stuff him in a sack. If you leave him unattended he wanders off to eat baby cave spiders. He has witnessed 37 murders and his primary caregiver is a heavily armed religious fundamentalist whose face he’s never seen. This kid is gonna be soooooo weird when he grows up.

angler fish mating customs “If you were a like a female anglerfish you wouldn’t have to go looking for a date. Instead, you’d release a chemical trail of pheromones into the water and the guys would find you. Unfortunately, male anglerfish are 40 times smaller than the females. However, they can give the ultimate love bite! If we were like an anglerfish, the male’s body would start to degenerate. His jaws would fuse into the skin and his internal organs would disappear.”
