Chronology
After a family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River
Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life is turned upside down when her teenage daughter, Astrid, accidentally opens the portal to the Afterlife.. Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, Justin Theroux, and Monica Bellucci share why filming Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was an experience they’ll never forget.. Tim Burton has said that this film would only be made if Michael Keaton would return to reprise his role.
Beetlejuice: I think it was Dostoevsky who said
Keaton said in March of 2014 that this is the only sequel he’s interested in doing.. The film makes a reference to "French physicist" Maria Sklodowska-Curie; she is, in fact, one of the most famous Polish scientists in history, often considered second only to Copernicus.. Later, fucker..

SPOILER: There is a dedication in the closing credits to Bob the Skinner, who died in the film.. MacArthur ParkWritten by Jimmy WebbPerformed by Donna SummerCourtesy of Island Def Jam Music GroupUnder license from Universal Music Operations Ltd.. If you know the original then you will very likely be disappointed with this film, which suffers from a poor storyline and chaotic script – it&# 39;s a big, high energy mess of a film.
The biggest problem is that unlike the original it lacks any sympathetic characters
Adam & Barbera were established early and were the catalyst for what was to follow. The 2024 version has no such characters meaning that the catalyst is missing along with any reason for the audience to invest in and care for any shallow characterisations, with the possible exception of Bob. There are no "moments" in the 100 minute long presentation, nothing with the potential to become classic quotable scenes unlike the original which was peppered with them.
You may get something from the movie and I genuinely hope you do, but lower your expectations before the lights dim
Keaton, Ryder and O’Hara are all criminally under used and struggle with a poor script which left my cinema quiet throughout and with an equally quiet shuffle as people headed out the doors.
