Tung oil (pronounced the same as tongue) is a natural oil finish that can be applied to any wood product and without any additives it is a body safe and food safe finish, meaning it can be applies to wooden spoons, bowls, plates and other dishes and contains no harmful substances that could transfer to food. It's also a great oil finish for furniture and tool handles.

      author Sir Terry Pratchett had done something similar in his novel "Eric", which was a parody of the old story "Faust". in it you discover that Hell had been taken over by new management who had replaced the fire and brimstone with an office building. All the demons walk around with name tags and work out of cubicles. the traditional tortures like pushing a rock up a hill, or having your kidney eaten by a bird for all eternity, etc being replaced with filling out tax forms, or being read accounting manuals.

      I definitely agree. I think one thing about Burton is that occasionally, things lean too heavily into his style and the movie, while gorgeous and unique, feels hollow. Not enough of an interesting story or character work to be worthwhile.
      Something as comedic, classic, and slapstick as this, combined with his dark style creates something powerful and fun. It’s kind of the same reason Pee Wee’s Big Adventure worked well.

    The fly screaming "help me" is a reference to the 1958 The Fly movie. During the finale when Beetlejuice says "Who do we have tonight, kids" and does the golf swing, that is a Johnny Carson imitation, who was a late night talk show host during the 80's. I love this move, and have watched it 40 to 50 times. This is the first time that I've ever pieced together that Barbara gets the idea to possess the Deitz dinner party after being possessed by Beetlejuice, and how much it freaked her out.

    fun fact. The whole part where Michael is looking up Geena's dress with the stick, Michael improvised the line "oh yeah". Also in the script his character was not meant to use a stick to lift up her dress, but was supposed to blow her dress up with air to have a look. Using a stick was Michaels own idea. A line that was in the script at the graveyard that he did not say in the film was, "She got good legs? God I love a young leg". Air then blows up Barbara's dress, exposing her legs. He leers. HAHA That's what it said in the script. They were going to use something to blow Geena's dress up, but they were short on time, so to save time, Tim told Michael that he should just pick up Geena's dress himself. Michael suggested that he lift her dress with a stick as he thought it would be funny. which is what he done in the scene at 32:25. And like i said when he lifted her dress up, the line "oh yeah" was improvised by Michael, not scripted.

      I was around when this came out and then i heard he was picked to do Batman, and I thought the choice was great. Actors are ACTORS and they need to make each project different from the next one. People act like they ARE the character and cannot do diverse things. That is ridiculous. Just look at Dustin Hoffman. He was in Midnight Cowboy and the Graduate. Then he went and did Tootsie and won an Oscar for it.

    Actually you guys are not that far off as in the original cut of the film the Deats did go back to New York and Lidia was unofficially adopted by the Maitlands with Charles and Delia checking in once in a while by phone call. The movie ends with a phone call from the Deats as well as the realtor seeing Lidia walking home from school and being very confused why Lidia is living in a huge house by herself (bookending the beginning of the film where she thought the house was too big for the Maitlands. You can find that cut / scene on RUclips if you look for it. For a person who grew up watching the film it is a fascinating alternate ending and it fits the theme of a ‘found family’ the movie was going for very well.

    3 Beetlejuice Fun Facts:
    - Tim Burton originally wanted Sammy Davis Jr. to play Beetlejuice. But Warner Bros thought he'd be too expensive. So producer David Geffin suggested Michael Keaton.
    - Alyssa Milano was almost cast as Lydia Deets. Before Wynona Ryder
    - The song they originally wanted for the dinner party scene was "When A Man Loves A woman". But that was too expensive and "Day-O" by Harry Bellifonte was a lot more affordable.

    From what I recall, these movies were considered family-friendly despite the more mature/horror elements (similar to how Labyrinth and Ghostbusters have mature themes but are still considered family movies).

And, honestly, I was the kind of child who got scared very easily (was afraid of the dark and that kind of thing). This movie was just so off-the-wall and comedy-ish enough that it wasn't scary. Also, I had seen the Nickelodeon cartoon already with Beetlejuice, so maybe in my mind it was already a "safe" non-scary thing. I remember my sibling and I comparing how different the original movie was to the cartoon episodes we'd already seen, when we saw the movie the first time as kids. (In the cartoon, there's no Adam and Barbara, and Beetlejuice and Lydia were BFFs). So yeah. But we loved this movie lol

    A giant snake swimming through sand is not an ownable concept. And the concept is not original to Dune. For instance, the original Outer Limits was before Dune was published and there's an episode where shark-type monsters swim through the sands with fins poking up -- much closer the Beetlejuice snake than Dune sandworms are. And nobody cares because monsters swimming through sand is a simple concept and probably quite old. That Outer Limits episode 100% inspired Tremors, by the way, but nobody owns getting up on Rocks to escape things that swim through the ground -- a feature of Outer Limits, Dune, Tremors, etc..
