[@missugh1890]

[@onepoundofcheese8356]

Movie was WAY too convoluted with no real payoff to any one of the many pointless stories. Not enough of Beetlejuice, characters that were resonably eccentric before were now just outrageously cartoony at best and superfluous. there was absolutely NO REASON for a 5 minute uncomfortable and boring musical piece at the end. You know they had NO ideas for this movie as they ended it exactly like the first movie.......with Beetlejuice getting married and the antagonists being eaten by a sandworm. And it KILLED me that they had Elfman's score and didn't even use it beyond the pre-credits.

[@HazeyCazeyTv]

I hated that dance scene at the end 🤦🏻

[@thoriasunlimited4053]

Yeah, they were repeating a lot of the same beats as the first film. The dance scene in the church felt especially derivative.

Well, apparently they'd all been stuck together in that house for the last 20 years. Not much of a choice but to try to get along, I suppose.

[@infinity_flair]

It really did feel like a collection of subplots stitched together.

[@NathanNavarrete-r5m]

In a really bad way

[@jeggsonvohees2201]

Did anyone else feel bad for Beetlejuice at the end? He's nothing but helpful to the Deetz's, helps Lydia break away from her manipulative boyfriend, keeps his end of the bargain with tricks or loopholes, but gets screwed over because of a lazily written rule in the death book that he would have already known about given how old and experienced he is.

[@showreel2]

yeah i said that to my son and having the beetlejuice baby was waste of ending. just wrap the film and go

[@Lvestfold4143]

Yeah because he wasn’t just as manipulative and fawning over a woman for 35 years starting when she was 14…

[@jeggsonvohees2201]

@@Lvestfold4143 If anything he's barely manipulative in this one. In fact he's completely straightforward with Lydia. He doesn't lie to her, he's completely upfront with what he wants, and he doesn't try to trick her. He's the one who gets Lydia into the afterlife, he's the one who saves Astrid from death, and he follows the deal to a T. He even does helpful things for Lydia outside of the contract like making her manipulative fiance tell the truth. He is 100% beneficial to Lydia this time around, even if he's doing it for personal gain.

[@Lvestfold4143]

@@jeggsonvohees2201 he has been stalking her for 35 years, only wants to marry her so he can return to the land of the living, and tried to force another marriage knowing he made the contract null and void for breaking afterlife laws. He’s a sleaze ball. Yeah he helped her but only for his own gratification. His only saving grace is that he’s not as big of a sleaze ball as Rory and Delores. Which shows that he’s not a villain, he’s more of a Loki archetype. Which you don’t want someone like that constantly around either.

It sure misses the Maitlands. Monica Belluci, Justin Theroux and Willem Dafoe (who is great, normally) were not needed. Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, her daughter and Delia were more than enough. Catherine O Hara can be funny, def not her fault.

[@Bow-to-the-absurd]

Agreed. Most of the new characters didnt do anything for the story, really.

[@thoriasunlimited4053]

I was missing the Maitlands, but I understand them not being there. You'd have to use de-aging tech on them, and that can be pretty hit-and-miss. The new characters were no substitute for them though.

[@reginaphalange9417]

Totally, the cartoon was great (I still remember watching it when I was 5-6yo) and the friendship between Beetlejuice and Lydia the best direction to take for a sequel

[@spndusk2362]

[@michaelreich4827]

The movie had its good moments, but something felt.....off, the entire time. At least it stayed out of pushing "the message". And I know they had to find a way around Jeffrey Jones, but I'm surprised his character was focused on so much.

[@spndusk2362]

Lol no it didn't. Notice how it doesn't like fathers, boyfriends, or men in general? They're either evil, incompetent, pathetic, or adsentee. Not to mention, it's another feminist wetdream for wine moms; praising them for rejecting love for men and embracing singlehood. Yeah, that's not woke at all 😂😂😂

[@lametrieousp]

what about jeffrey jones?

[@caspearious-ghost]

Jeffrey Jones played the father in the original movie... apparently, the actor is still alive but I guess he didn't want to come back or was never offered the role to come back.

[@ilanzosainto4584]

This sequel gave me the same incompetent uninspired vibes Jeepers Creepers 3 gave me when I saw it in theaters 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@kingslayer2999]

To much Jeffrey Jones references in this movie they should just killed him off and never spoke of him again. This movie was disappointing I went in wanted to like it but I didn't something felt off. Delia is to over the top cartoonish in Fact most of the movie is cartoonish and toned down and not Gritty like the original. I can count on one hand number of scenes I liked and they were to many plots going on at once. It was a narrative mess.

You've pointed out everything I found wrong with the movie. Thank you so much for putting this together. 🔥

[@thoriasunlimited4053]

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@ZeroFreeze]

The biggest comparison I can give is, this whole movie felt like a hill climb on a roller coaster where you are hyped the whole time and this movie is that the whole time and by the end it ends with nothing happened just the climb to the third movie. Only thing that happened was the daughter learned she can see ghosts, the two villain types are pointless. This whole movie is just a safe sequel to get to their third movie that rather have

[@timkinss]

Burton has no intention of doing a third, he joked about how old he'd be by then if they did

[@mithroth6703]

I felt somewhat the same. Nothing much happened the first hour, then it started picking up and then it was at the end. There was so much unnecessary plot lines that just went nowhere. I liked Keaton, Ryder and Ortega.

[@thoriasunlimited4053]

Well, they'll probably be getting a third movie with how well this one did over the weekend, and I'm fine with that. The problem with this one was the script. If they can just get some better writing with the next one, that fixes most of the issues I had.

What the movie truly misses is the script writing genius of Warren Skaaren one of my closest friends in Austin till his untimely death at 44 years. The narrative structure, and especially dialogue...that was what Warren brought to all the movies he worked on... including his linchpin role in Batman (Burton's).

[@craigmacdonald7764]

I didn't like it the performances where good but that fucking script was really bad

[@thoriasunlimited4053]

There were a lot of holes in it. Like how Monica Bellucci spends the whole movie hunting Beetlejuice when he's mostly just hanging out at his place of business, not even hiding. Or how Astrid's dad says he often checks in on her and Lydia even though they can't see him when he does; why can't they see him? They can see other ghosts, so why not him? And they can certainly see him now, so what gives? Never explained.

[@carlosr1176]

I don’t really see what all the hate is about, I’ve loved the original and do think it’s better. But Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, was great in my opinion, sure, I do think they could have done better, some scenes felt cringe and unnecessary, but overall I’d give it a 7.9/10. It genuinely made me laugh at times, and I felt it was really fun. Yeah the ending was the same as the original, and Beetlejuice being banished at the end was a little rushed, but I don’t think Tim Burton wanted this movie to be any big any award winning film, I think he just wanted a little creative fun. Also I do think it came 36 years too late.

[@AbrasiousProductions]

in the immortal words of Ed "I FUCKING KNEW IT!!!"

[@zebare726]

Hollywood used to create new original ips which they could rely on for income, of which when that ip had done its job, the ip ended up in a vault with the aim of making room for the next ip. Then when the time was right, they bring out their older ips, with the aim of making new movies, which for us movie goers was a treat, as we usually had to wait 10-20 years for a classic ip return. example the return of Star wars with ep 1 was some massive news, same goes for Terminator 3. Nowdays it seems that Hollywood only bets on their older ips, which means that they will not have any new ips to build up in their vault, but they will only have their already milked ips.

[@ladypool1404]

I agree that there was too many plots in this movie; Lydia and her marriage, Beetle's ex, the ghost kid, the cop. Too many characters and not all of them are developped except the ones we know. Lydia is more brave, the aunt is empathic and tries to comfort her, Beetlejuice is less evil than before... i guess working during years made him realise what a jerk he was with Lydia? At least, he helped her to save Astrid which is nice. He didn't forced her to marry him too 😄 Bob was funny, the music was nice and i like that we explore more the underworld. This was fun! Dolores is not there often! Her power is scary but she never did something to the heroes. Why this character was there if she did nothing important? The movie is fine, not amazing but not boring either. I give it a 6|10 🙂

[@JumpingJack6]

It is a convoluted mess, too many subplots winding around each other, I agree with that assessment and I am disappointed as well, but IMPORTANTLY to me, it was a Beetlejuice movie, it was still fun and not woke.

I've long maintained for myself that a sequel to a good story should only be made if there's a WHOLE NEW story to tell using the same characters, that PROGRESSES them from where and when they were when we LAST saw them (NOT REGRESS them to what they were where and when we FIRST saw them), and not be a re-tread of the original story. The vast majority of sequels don't really fulfill these requirements and are therefore unnecessary. If I want to see the same story told again, I just go back and watch the first film. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice just rehashes the first film, has no clear direction, and appears to have been made solely because nobody had any better ideas and wanted to do something before Michael Keaton truly becomes too old to do it.

Honestly could have kept the boy in. He would be a reason to for Lydia to go into the after life as she does in the move. Have the story revolve around Ortega/ Astrid and her relationship with him. Lydia trying to manage with these weird visions of beetle juice stalking her. All while we cut to a second/third plot where juice’s ex comes into play. Giving a motive for juice to even help. The Boy convinces Ortega/Astrid to go into the after life after the realization of his ghostly existence. Somewhere along the line Lydia’s mom goes through the wake of her husband. Setting up a reason to be there. Lydia now has to turn to the main man juice. Have “the juice is loose” scene. Though juice is the antagonist yet again, he is willing to help for a price. Keep the man as his character. No need to change him up that much. He’s a scam artiest. That’s his whole thing. All you need. We don’t need feminist Shakespeare in there. We keep bob. Bob is good.

I enjoyed the movie,but I agree with you about certain things. The best part of the movie was the relationship between Lydia & Astrid,the relationship between Lydia & her boyfriend wasn't needed especially when he made Beetlejuice look good,the ending was just confusing. Outside of that,it was good

[@chromosomeboo]

The movie with overstuffed with characters and subplots. They focused on Charles Deetz who should have been written out completely to focus on Lydia, her daughter and perhaps, Delia and of course Beetlejuice. After years of potential, this was massively underwhelming.

I agree with everything he says, but I liked it. Yes there's a lot going on, a lot of stories but I think it all comes together at the end. Yes the first one was better this is a sequel to a movie about a decade old, and the same with a lot of sequels these days. If Ghostbusters and Beetlejuice came out in the 90s or early 2000s it might have been well received. I think the story, yes a lot going on but I still liked it. I wasn't expecting an amazing sequel from a movie that came out decades ago but I still had a fun time I did laugh about as much as I did in the first one I wasn't rolling on the floor with the first one and I wasn't here and I liked the practical effects. I just don't know what happened from the trailer everyone was on board till seeing the movie and hating it.🤷‍♂️ I give it 6🪲out of 10👍🏼

To me this was like an episode of the cartoon. Nowhere near the vein of the first

[@TCook-d3s]

Have no desire to see this movie.

Saw it with a friend on Friday. Honestly, it was a good, fun, ride in a sea of super serial preach-a-thons.

[@liljairis]

just watched and i fucking hated it. what a pile of garbage. tim burton has hit the wall of filmmaking.

[@Stop_Gooning]

I have to expect things to be good before I can be disappointed by them being bad.

I needed the vector completion on Day-O

[@thoriasunlimited4053]

I almost got a copyright claim for using the clip that's already in there. I had to cut it down from a longer version. And by "longer" I mean like 1/20th of a second longer.

@@thoriasunlimited4053 Jeepers. YT is a pain...

[@turboturkey]

valid points. I liked it just fine, not as strong as the first one for sure. Some jokes worked for me but some didn't;. I liked Dafoe in this. maybe his character wasn't laser focused but I enjoy a lot of his bits. I agree on Justin Theroux he was just kind of there and I knew he was up to no good and Monica belluci just gets all this build up and then gets eaten by a worm. I liked that Lydia had some issues with constantly seeing dead people, it reminded a bit of Laurie strode in Halloween being traumatized a bit. Jenna ortega was fine, she made some mistakes but she is a teenage girl. I still like Michael Keaton in the role, I will say I can;t quote as many funny lines as the first one, but a lot of his stuff was riffing off the cuff, so 36 years later maybe he isn;t quite as sharp at it. Overall, I liked it, not a perfect movie and I can acknowledge some flaws but still better then other cash grabs sequels, at least there was some genuine effort put into it. The writing just seems to be a problem for a lot of Hollywood. When is comes to critiques most of it usually comes down to the writing. At least it wasn't the crow,

Just going by your review here, Top Gun: Maverick is the needle in the haystack of classic movies (30+ years) that meaningfully carry the story forward. I remain curious about it, and would like to see it for myself.

[@dragunov815]

Complete afterthought.

[@dannyd.9932]

Wait wait when did they do this? WHEN? I heard nothing about this

[@DaveDoran]

[@KLunzX51]
