Not the same Bob. The Joker's #1 Guy was shot by the Joker while Beetlejuice's Bob had his head shrunk.

[@melindakoken2397]

No the cartoon had a shrunkin head character named bob

[@MulToyVerse]

@@melindakoken2397 I thought his name on the show was Mr. Smallhead. Both of them, though was based on the hunter/explorer with the shrunken head from the first movie. He was with the headhunter who used a magic powder to shrink Beetlejuice's head at the end of the movie.

Wouldn’t exist. With that said, they need to hurry up and write another sequel. That world is so bizarre/possible that a few good writers could make it happen. This sequel felt like an episode of the old cartoon where Juice and Lydia work together.

The moment that Jeremy’s parents faces were deliberately NOT shown I instantly knew something was up with him and his family.

[@eternalbookwyrm9481]

I thought he was dead the moment they met.

[@ZekeStaright]

The second Astrid ran into the tree I thought, "Head trauma, she can see ghosts now." Kid in the tree pops his head out, "& there he is." Then there's just more things that cement it in. Astrid mentioning the fence & him saying that his parents won't even notice, not seeing the parent's faces, his collection of 90's stuff, when Lydia questions his house. Him being a murderer was a bit of a twist I didn't see coming though.

[@emmacarr7671]

Yes same 😅

[@Newhorizons4u]

Yeah I realised exactly what was going to happen the scene we met Jeremy. Like instantly.

[@CrimsonNineTail]

The book, which tried to be played as a mcguffin, the barely seen parents, the seemingly dated materials in his home. All of these said something wasn't right.

[@ftlfabrications]

Beetlejuice narrates his back story in Italian. In the first movie when he meets the Maitlands he offers to cook them food and says "hope you like Itallian."

[@FrancineL81]

plus the "i lived through the black plague" when first meeting the maitlins

[@pohjanakka4992]

And of course Dolores is played by Monica Bellucci, who is Italian. So whether that came because Burton is dating her and wanted her in, or the fact that she is Italian and those bits in the first movie gave him the idea to use the first wife in the story and have her play the wife because she happens to be Italian, who knows, but it seems a bit too much to be a mere coincidence. For all we know the whole idea for this movie could have started because she is Italian. I could imagine a discussion between Burton and Bellucci with Burton doing something like joking that maybe Bellucci's ancestor was the one who had been married to Beetlejuice, then he starts thinking that she could play that character because she is an actress, then... 😄 Well, then the rest of the story almost pushes Dolores out and doesn't give her all that much to do, but he keeps her in just because she was the seed for the story. Okay, that thought amuses me mostly because so many people are complaining her being in the movie, and think Dolores exists in the first place just because Burton wanted to give her a role. But what if she was the reason he started to think making the movie in the first place, and without her there never would have been a second Beetlejuice movie? I know, just speculating, but as said I find that possibility amusing.

[@carlosfranceschy9428]

Neat detail!

[@theuglyinsect4093]

The black and white backstory segment is done as a homage to 60s Italian horror filmmaker Mario Bava and his classic films like Black Sunday aka The Mask of Satan. Bava was a huge influence on Burton and is referenced again later in the film when Astrid is going through her parents scrapbook - Lydia mentions her and Astrid’s father going to a Mario Bava film festival.

[@iononcantomascrivo]

Another Easter egg I missed. I cracked up so hard. I was like Michael Keaton knows italian? Then I looked up and apparently it was an uncredited voice actor who did the Italian dialogue.

There was also a blink and you'll miss it nod to Catherine O'Hara's character Moira Rose from Schitt's Creek. When Lydia goes to meet her mother at the art gallery you see a few of Delia's pieces.

[@jamie1602]

I appreciate Tim Burton (and Tom Selick's) stop motion so that sequence was much appreciated. The costume and makeup is very much what I expect from Beetlejuice so the extra gross parts were just great. It was a nice way to distance from the actor while the creatives get to remind people that Charles Deetz belongs to the Beetlejuice universe. They can do what they want with him and rip off his head while still keeping him relevant. Cause... I don't want that actor back and I feel more comfortable saying Beetlejuice's name three times than saying his name once. Otherwise I'm just gonna get a bad taste in my mouth. Who wants that? Nobody.

Is it just me or did the Delores plot seem a bit of an after thought. I kinda wish the murder house was brought in earlier and explored more. Astrid's friend would have made a better villain arch than Delores. Could have spent a bit more time in the actual model like before. They didn't seem to spend much time in the house either, other than the attic... I loved the acting and of course the signature look and feel from Tim Burton. Glad they still incorporated the stop motion animation and the dead husband being eaten by a shark was great. A lot of positive from the film but the first 40mins seemed a bit "meh".

[@jamie1602]

Astrid's friend and Rory make two excellent villains. Delores was not utilized well but she's an excellent character. She does feel like an afterthought. But we had enough with the murder house and Rory trying to manipulate Lydia. Those two together were enough to let Beetlejuice cause chaos and once again have the audience asking "am I supposed to hate him, because I like the weird chaotic poltergeist demon". Delores would have been excellent for Beetlejuice three. In which Lydia and Astrid have to save Beetlejuice from his terrifying ex and we focus entirely just on Beetlejuice's backstory. Rory and the murderhouse take away from just how terrifying Delores is. Her entrance is great. The backstory is a lovely throwback to Italian horror films. She's a good actress, what little we see of her, and she is scary. The "deaths" are very Tim Burton dark comedy/horror. But it's so much in one movie. It's a "kill your darlings" moment. Delores deserved a solo film. Rory and the murder house needed the sequel. Delores needed her own movie for revenge. And that's how I'm gonna stick to it.

I don't think she was an afterthought... I think it was a leftover from the original script. I think it was the original base for the idea of the sequel and then it evolved but they didn't trim the fat. Someone liked the idea too much to let it go when it no longer had any purpose to the story. The other two main story lines tie together while the one originally introduced almost completely disappears. Hence, why I believe it was the original base that wasn't cut. I also didn't like that origin story as I thought he was always a ghoul and not a true ghost. So, it just made less sense. It's one of those examples of failed Hollywood screen writing .

Baby Beetlejuice in a way was a nod to Edward bloom’s birth in Big Fish. There was also a piano part in the score that was reminiscent of the piano part playing in Pee Wee’s Big Adventure (when Pee Wee goes to Francis’s house to confront him during his bath time) This film had Tim Burton’s imprimatur all over it

[@kish45]

I just saw the second movie yesterday and it was awesome.

[@Glitched76]

The Matlens car was still in the river and the Matlens were crawling out in the model I think it was the second time the camera went through it

Saw Beetlejuice Beetlejuice today, really enjoyed the similarities to the first movie. Surprised by the amount of gore and blood, had funny moments and all round fun movie 👍💯

[@thenexgenchurch]

I actually never noticed any of these I am glad you made this video

[@mirdja83]

Beetlejuice's head shrunk at the end of the 1st movie, so at first I thought Bob was some sort of body double for him. Haven't really figured that out yet

[@SeasideDetective2]

One thing the movie hasn't explained after all these years is why, if heaven and hell exist in this world, why most of the dead souls are stuck between what is apparently purgatory and the houses in which they died. And there's more. When Adam and Barbara found their "loophole," did they get to go to heaven? Why did Delia get to board the train less than an hour after dying? And if Jeremy was a murderer, how was he able to avoid going to hell for over two decades?

[@Mikumo91]

Unfinished business. Delia had none, the Maitlands wanted a big family so they had to stay. Jeremy probably also had something that kept him there.

[@hyenaholicproductions9033]

It seems that it just takes SO LONG. First there's that 125 year haunting wait, and then there's the endless queues, and it looks like one of their definitions of suicide is "Doing something so stupid that you were just asking to get killed" as the Actor/Cop actually performed a stunt with what he KNEW was a live grenade. With the queues, it looks like people are waiting for SO long that they give up their place and try to do it themselves. However, there IS the Soul Train, which takes you to your next destination, and we never really see what's after that.

[@jamie1602]

@@Mikumo91 Lydia and the Deetz became their extended family and thus "the loophole". So they didn't have to haunt for the 100+ years. I do love that implication that the big family was a found family with Lydia being a daughter figure they were always hoping to have. I love the addition of the Soul Train and how the stops are multiple afterlife destinations. And I also just love how fun it is.

Death is a giant bureaucratic mess. This Afterlife is a reference to the messy process of said bureaucracy, hence all the rules and what not.

[@Crystallion27]

When Beetlejuice said he was going to make the ghost couple some food he said “I hope you like Italian” so that part is another nod to the Italian seen in the new movie.

[@Hatsumomo1984]

I recognized Danny Devito immediately and Delores reattached her ring finger in the same scene where she reattached her other body parts. But anyway, I loved the movie, it was really fun.

[@dcaslick]

Something you may have missed, since you didn’t bring it up when talking about the musical is that Lydia’s mom isn’t in fact dead. Lydia mentions that during her conversation with Delia about Astrid and Lydia’s struggles with her and their relationship back when Lydia was a teen. Delia claimed to have tried to fill in for Lydia’s “dead mother” and Lydia reminded her that her mom wasn’t dead.

[@CyclopsWasRight616]

I mean, we're not even 30 seconds into this and you're pretending that a SINGLE PERSON could have watched the movie and MISSED the model town. You might as well make number one Beetlejuice. I mean, if you missed the model town, you didn't see the effin movie.

She said people may have missed a reference to the maitlands in the opening scene, not the model town itself. Did you even listen?

You missed something at the beginning of the credits. You can see a car crash and a couple crawling out of the ditch.

[@Rach-s7o]

I did pick up on all of these. BUT When Jenna Ortega said “Death is hard, living is harder” this is similar to the quote from Twilight. When Bella said, “Death is peaceful… easy. Life is harder.” There are sources floating around that Jenna Ortega is gonna be the next Bella in the upcoming Twilight release. I feel like Jenna dropped this quote in the movie to poke at Twilight fans.

[@rachaelk7866]

Lol as soon as she said it I was like wait is she phrasing twilight now ? Also didn't Jenna Ortega play Wednesday in the latest Adams family ? Her Wednesday dolls are def sought after esp in the USA

[@jessesanchez9187]

In OG Beetlejuice when he is summoned to save the Maitlands, first thing he does is approach the Deetzs. They are embracing each other out of fear of the ghost. Beetlejuice hands Charles a pair of Copperhead snakes. In the sequel, Delia dies after being bitten by two copperhead snakes. Was he letting her know she was going to die way back then?

[@wesmcquillen]

They were asps, not copperheads

[@lizlefay3262]

🛑Spoiler of the second movie🛑 I related that death more to the first movie, when they are moving in to the new house and one of Delia sculptures almost kills her she says: my art is dangerous I don't want to die by it, or something like that, and in the sequel what is the very thing that kills her? Her art

Not a callback to the original, but I was really psyched to see the dream sequence that was an homage to the 70s B horror 'It's Alive'. That was one of my earliest horror loves from childhood.

[@Spindler2007]

The dream sequence was mainly a homage to the 1976 movie Carrie as they used the opening theme music as well while also doing a nod to It's Alive with the Beetlebaby.

[@mgmlioness67]

[@lorrainecampbell6448]

Astrid's dad is a civil service worker in the afterlife. This means he committed suicide. But his death is attributed to an accident.

[@rachaelk7866]

Bit in the afterlife he looks like he's been eaten by piranhas.( The ones squirming in his body trying to bite in). but didn't he die over open ocean in a plane ? Piranha's don't live in.open water like that mainly rivers

[@floatingf8783]

Well not exactly. People who commit suicide are forced into civil service, doesn't mean other ghosts can't go into that industry of their own volition.

[@mariarmz3498]

​@@floatingf8783I noticed this part right away about Astrid's dad, but it specifically is mentioned the suicide roll leads to service, hints in the movie also point out that Lydia and the husband were going through a rough time leading to divorce.

[@Jenonymouse]

The newspaper Beetlejuice reads headlines a civil servant strike. Presumably the jobs were being filled by those who died from other reasons. Astrid mentioned her father fought for lost causes. He might have taken the job voluntarily.

[@iancowan3527]

I have to say, I had doubts about this sequel, but I'm more than happy to say ~ it delivers and is very entertaining to watch! Though ~ I seriously don't get the song in the musical sequence ~ especially with two different versions of the same song used!

[@christopherlyons5900]

Loved the movie, but now I see a possible continuity error--don't ya hate it when that happens? "I always said if I ever did it, I was gonna do it once..."--he did it centuries earlier, with Delores! But--you can make that work--though I don't for one second believe Burton had thought it out that far when making the eariler film, he probably did stop and think when writing this film, and decided it wasn't a problem. As it now plays, Beetlejuice is hesitant during the earlier wedding scene about breaking his vow to himself, which being Beetlejuice, he was obviously going to break at some point. Since he really wanted to marry Lydia, to get out of the Neitherworld for keeps, the only thing holding him back was his earlier marriage to Delores. Being Beetlejuice, takes him like two seconds to get past that hurdle. As retro-continuity goes--not bad.

[@oldschoolmatt7396]

I caught some of these, but I immediately understood the thing with the finger and the ring. Amazing callback
