This movie upset me. I really didnt appreciate the absence of the maitlands. That's a huge one for me. The maitlands were the emotional through-line of the original. We were seeing the movie from their perspective because they were basically playing the straight man. So they plucked the main characters from the sequel and we're left with the crazy side characters that no one can relate to. It was too weird. I agree with Winona rider in regard to lydia most likely wouldn't have had kids. I dont like jenna Ortega and shes once again infected another ip I adored. The character of beetlejuice doesnt need to be expanded upon. I dont want to see him working in an office. That's pretty ridiculous. There were way too many characters and too many plot lines converging all at once felt unnatural and forced. Michael Keatons performance was very sedate. Not once did I see him light or smoke a cigarette. He constantly kept the timbre of his voice really low where as the original his tone and inflections were all over the place. In the original film he would flip from calm to manic in the same sentence. What they did with Charles Deetz character was detestable. Either have jeffrey jones reprise his role or dont have that character in the film. It's that simple. Also beetlejuice appears when you say his name three times, so why was delores having such a hard time finding him when she had already said his name more than three times. Wheres beetlejuice?! Wheres beetlejuice?! Wheres beetlejuice?! That was pretty stupid and bad writing imo. There was one shrunken head guy in the first movie but the burnt up smoker guy was more interesting, so we now have a race of shrunken head dudes? That doesnt make any sense. Also how did beetlejuice get his head unshrunk from the first movie? I wanted to see how lydia grew up having two sets of parents. Being raised by ghosts would have been very interesting. It would have also been cool to see how lydia helped adam and Barbara cross over. And mcarthur park playing at the end? I've always hated that song. It's almost like every move this movie made was deliberately designed to annoy fans of the original film. I personally feel like I've been slapped in the face.
I disagree on almost every front, but I totally respect your perspective, and appreciate you sharing it. I love the Maitlands, but ultimately I want them to have peace, and I don't mind that this was the route they took for these characters. Also, you mention too much was going on, and I do agree with that, but if the Maitlands were included, I think this would create more chaos and subplots when the story was written to be focused on the generations of the woman (Grandmother, Mother, and Daughter) according to Burton. But, I think some of the questions you raise are valid, and it's too bad that you didn't have a good time with this one.
I don’t think burton would do a third movie lol
True... but here's to wishful thinking lol
@@LindzCzar u know original script was supposed to be straight horror to me very interested in that idea how would be like lol before burton bought the script
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was as enjoyable if not better than the first Beetlejuice. Winona Ryder and Jenna Ortega are always a joy to watch 🤩
100% agree! 🤩
