Should Tim Burton complete his trilogy of BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE?!

[wacokid]

It’s so interesting because a lot of reviewers are complaining that this movie is a mess when the original is kind of a mess lol. Like when you watch the original, it’s kind of just crazy things happening.

Didn't hate the movie, but the pacing was off. I also feel like they could've cut Monica's character and the movie still could've worked well. The practical makeup on all the ghosts was really good though and I'm glad it wasn't a whole CGI fest the entire time!

we saw it last night and all I want is justice for bob.

First off, incredible Beetlejuice voice, Greg. Second, I can't wait to see this tonight. Even if it's not as good as the first, I have no doubt Michael Keaton will give it his all again.

Everyone complains about the ending being so abrupt and resolved quickly, but forget that’s exactly how the first Beetlejuice ended as well. Once the sandworm took Beetlejuice out, everything went back to normal. The ending for the sequel is pretty much the same. Enjoy the sequel, it’s a fun time, the characters, the style, the vibes, it’s all there.

Great job on your Beetlejuice voice Greg. I hope you had a wonderful birthday and thank you and John for the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice review I can't wait to see it. I was In 4th grade when Beetlejuice came out and I've been a huge Beetlejuice fan ever since. Awesome stuff my Reject family ❤ you all take care and have a great day my friends. Stay safe and blessed ✌

[andycalmes]

Never ceases to amaze me how much analysis you guys can muster so quickly after watching something. In other words, you guys are good at your jobs. 👍

Greg is over here living dangerously. Beetlejuice, Bloody Mary, Candyman...you're not supposed to say their name their specified number of times good sir. Thems are the rules! 😂

What this movie taught me is that Burton will happily kill off random characters just for fun, Beetlejuice isn't a person as much as a chaotic force of nature, and all plot details are truly unimportant. All that really matters to Burton are the weird creative ideas and settings.

I just hope this is decent enough for a 3rd movie. I want this to end in a trilogy, so we'll have a "Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice" movie.

[bradleypowers]

I'll be quite honest. I like it just as much as the 1st one. Was surprised to see so many act like it's not even close to the original. They are very similar quality to me.

The Soul Train was the funniest part for me

[Kevmaster]

A movie doesn’t need to be as good as the previous one to still be great. I’m tired of people judging and comparing every movie based on another instead of enjoying it as its own film.

[jahiradrian]

Sometimes always in Tim Burton's works the audience has a kind of mixed reaction because they say we want the Tim Burton magic again with the strangeness that his films are but not so strange because it will become exaggerated, it is always a ping pong of reactions but In my opinion, that is what makes it unique because of the mixed interpretation of the audience.

[gorgan]

I liked the movie. It wasn't as good as the first one by far and had issues for sure (pacing was rough) but it had some really awesome parts and the movoe 100% felt just like the original. Do I think it needs a 3rd entry? Probably not, unless their is a certain premise that Burton really wants to do I think leaving it at 2 is probably fine. I could see a TV series Spin off with the daughter possibly happening.

[paradisecityable]

It's Michael Keaton's birthday today!

[Mandi_mayhemm]

I saw this right after i got off work today, and from the pov as lifelong Beetlejuice fan (literally, i was born in 88 and it's been my favorite movie since before i was even in kindergarten), I had a great time! my theater was nearly empty cuz its in a dead mall, but the other two groups of ppl also seemed to be enjoying themselves as we all had some audible laughing moments. The way i described it to my roomies was, it felt like most of the movie was set up for a lot of story lines, but it was fun to watch it and the end mostly brought all the story lines to a head at once, even if a bit messy and slightly rushed in some aspects. Ultimately I enjoyed it, and while it never really hits the same highs or stride that the og does, I can definitely see myself rewatching this each year around Halloween along with the original, nightmare before Christmas, and hocus pocus. definitely a spooky season staple for me going forward.
side note, it was nice to see jenna ortega in another burton project, because her performance really stood out to me as varied and different than her performance in Wednesday, when they could have very easily been played similarly. they are both snarky/combative edgy goth/alt teen girls, but astrid feels so different to Wednesday. which is a credit to Jenna's talent.

Watched last night and really hope we get a third!!!

They made BJ a simp for Lydia. They made Astrid mean to her mother. They made Lydia a fool and a lousy mother.
