There was a beetle juice 2?

He did what he could but he was clearly too old for the part. It would be like watching Jim Carey in another 10 years trying to play The Mask or Ace Ventura with the same energy again

According to an interview he apparently requested it be that way because in his opinion Beetlejuice having too much screen time would make him less impactful.

He was right

You ever notice how crazy shit always seems to happen when you put yourself into a deep meditative state where you hover between life and death?

It wasn't offensively bad, bought it just didn't have the magic of the original. You really felt the absence of the main character couple from the first one, as well as the dad who wasn't there for the obvious reasons. Too tame. Needed more whacky comedic stuff I think.

Everybody showed up and did a passible job it's just that's the spirit really wasn't there

Another? Where was this energy when Winona Ryder was young and cute?

He was. Pity they couldn't think of anything else to fill the rest of the 2 hours with but garbage.

The thought of a movie called Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice is too enticing for studios to pass up. Some exec got rock fucking hard from just hearing it.

Burton better brings Johnny and Helena this time. Turns out Beetlejuice has a twin brother or something.

it would ruin the lore if some other ghost showed up and was as skilled as Beetlejuice. I can accept that everything he does is the tricks in the ghost manual. His real superpower is excessive competency. If he had a "brother", then is brother needs to suck as much as all the other regular ghosts.

If they are that stupid then i can make them believe anything.

You've noticed that so far, Beetlejuice has always been a side threat. He hasn't been the real villain. How fucked would someone be to actually be in his cross-hairs?

I can respect Burton for trying new things at least. Could have been a rote rehash memberberries fest of the original movie, like the Zoolander and Zombieland sequels, but there were new ideas and worldbuilding. That zoomer kid who tricked Ortega into opening the afterlife door was unnecessary

It was okay

Dont care, I just wanna see Depp and Helena do one last dark, gothic, adventurous, supernatural Burton slop before he chokes to death on Bepucci

So they wait 50 years to make a sequel and now they're just gonna keep shitting them out until it becomes the next Fast & Furious?

Later fucker

Probably the only real laugh out loud moment from the sequel.

Every line Catherine O'hara spoke was gold. She's so fucking funny.

Okay I probably did laugh during that primal scream therapy bit.

S-Sir that is quite enough continue

Beetlejuice 2 was crap.

Lydia is now a paranormal investigator and tv personality

she's also addicted to drugs and it's a good thing? Her boyfriend who wants her to quit popping prescription pills is evil and doesn't care about her because pills are good?

Beetlejuice is also in love with Lydia now because...? I mean, in the last movie he wanted to marry her because she was a child and he was a creep. Why does he want to marry a 50 year old woman?

Delia is retconned from being an insufferable New York yuppie who looks down on everyone to being a wacky David Blaine style performance artist who is also somehow really successful and has art shows

Beetlejuice's wife just walks around saying "where's Beetlejuice?" to people and then killing them.

the B-plot involving Ass-turd has an obvious twist and gets resolved in like two seconds. After the climax I was like, "what about that guy?" I guess he was defeated?

remember this? Remember that? Remember him? Remember them? Remember that?

Beetlejuice makes people sing and dance even though that wasn't him in the first film doing that, that was Barbra and Adam, because they were bad at scaring people. But it was a memorable scene so it has to happen again in the sequel even though it doesn't make any sense.

everyone is overacting

the most interesting stuff was the new stuff that was unconnected to the first film, and there was very little of it.

as much as I can’t stand jenna ortega, you’re right, the movie wouldve been better with less callbacks to the original
none of the older actors looked good in this, the ghost boy switcheroo was the only interesting part

Shit I forgot that was coming out

Five foot one

Oh god my dick

Keaton and O'hara carry the film
DeFoe's character was a funny idea but really he didn't do much. Its like they took every script they had for beetlejuice 2 over the last 20 years and just smooshed them all together.
The entire Jenna's boyfriend being a serial killer ghost could have been removed all together (same with Beetle Juice's wife)

spend 90 minutes setting up like half a dozen different plots and occurances

all of them basically end in an unsatisfying wet fart or remain unresolved

Everyone was too successful in this movie
Like Lydia is a very popular tv host
Delia is a very popular new york artist
Beetlejuice is a succesful bio-exorcist

Lydia is going to marry a jerk

astrid finds out he's doing it just for money

Beetlejuice is in Ghost Jail

astrid gets BJ to help her and stop the wedding (its in Hawaii)

Defoe's fake cop character is in the movie and he's chasing after BJ

Beetle juice saves the day and marries Lydia and tricks Defoe into arresting Lydia's jerk boyfriend
