"They're creepy and they're kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're altoghether ooky
the Addmas Family!"

(Very) Early 90s live action take on the Addams Family with Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston impeccably cast as Gomez and Morticia Addams, alongside an equally impeccably cast Christopher Lloyd as Fester Addams.

The plot? Fester Addams has been missing, presumed dead, for decades until a man arrives at their house claiming to be the same, but with no memory of his childhood.

No, this is NOT the one where Wednesday Addams learns to smile (that would be the superior sequel: The Addams Family Values), but this is still an enjoyable enough diversion.

Rolling Stone's 225th greatest album of all time

For some reason I wasn't looking forward to listening to this. It became cool to hate Green Day not long after this album and I haven't tried much of their subsequent material, despite being a massive fan when Insomniac and Nimrod came out. This album was a very pleasant trip down memory lane. When September Ends isn't great but the sprawling Jesus of Suburbia and Homecoming are rock operas to rival Queen and Meatloaf. There are enough stomping diet punk anthems to satisfy their fans plus enough masterful songwriting in those songs to please any rock fan.
