I find that the Beetlejuice make-up suits Michael Keaton's face even better now that he has a few more years on him. One could say that he's gotten beetlejuicier.
While other actors may have mixed feelings about that sentiment, something tells me that Keaton would be at the very least amused if not pleased to hear someone say that he is 'beetlejucier.' Haha.
You ever think about how weird it is that someone saw the movie and thought "We should make a kid's cartoon about Lydia being super into him"?
As a kid who grew up watching that show first it was definitely jarring to watch the movie second. lol
the thing the play got right was calling the marriage proposal creepy.
"The logo's desaturated, that's not a good sign." That's Tim Burton.
Yup
"That's Tim Burton." That's not a good sign.
Micheal Keaton said he been wanting to make a second movie for the longest time
I heard Burton say that going back to stop-motion and practical effects reinvigorated his love of film-making. That gives me hope.
This has definitely interested me more than I was originally. I’m glad Lydia is in the sequel
He IS how you describe you want him in the musical. He’s fun and the bad guy.
At least listen to it if you aren’t going to try to see it.
Yes! Right on the money. The popularity of the character made people forget that he was the bad guy. I too loved that the trailer was played for scares.
Every time I see Beetlejuice all I think about is him getting shrunk and the pitch of his voice going higher and higher. I laughed so hard at that
I suppose we can presume he stuck his thumb in his mouth and blew hard on it to get his head back to normal.
It's good to see you genuinely enthused about a sequel. I liked it but as with most teasers there isn't enough to judge more than that. I'd say the reason why we love Beetlejuice and think he's fun is because we're safe, we're behind the protection of our screens. An in-universe Beetlejuice is evil, he isn't fun to those who suffer by him.
"The Juice is loose." That's how juice is suppose to be. 😁
Lydia's body language entering the room said it all for me. The two close ups were the icing on the cake. If the whole movie handles the tone as well as the trailer I'm looking forward to it.
my favorite part of the teaser...the first thing Beetlejuice says to Lydia...."THE JUICE IS LOOSE!".....so corny yet at the same time, it sounds like Beetlejuice means business....he's back and ready to go
I'm so looking forward to this sequel. It will be good seeing where this goes.
Not only have we got most of the original cast back including Michael Keaton back as Beetlejuice but also Willem Dafoe, Monica Bellucci and Burn Gorman who I will always remember as Owen Harper from Torchwood lol.
My thoughts on seeing this was like "Here's the bridge, here's the original characters, here's the house, here's the model. Aside from Lydia's daughter, there is nothing new here."
Now, it is just a teaser and not a full theatrical trailer, but still. I'm very iffy after seeing this. It looks like nostalgia-bait, and until I see something that suggests there's more to it, I'm going to be on the fence.
Well, I mean... if it's supposed to be a direct sequel, don't you kind of _want_ the locations and characters to be the same? It's a continuation of their story. 🤷♀️
Even the teaser poster is of his hands holding that long paper of his waiting room number, with the release date 09,06,24 between his thumbs. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where the movie picks up... his number FINALLY being called. lol
I grew up with the animated show and only watched the 1988 film much later in life. I was shocked at how little screen time Beetlejuice actually has in that movie. He isn't even an antihero (which is kinda how he's portrayed in the cartoon), he's purely an awful person LMAO
Was waiting for this. Thanks, as always!
And in the 2060s, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
I remember watching the animated series all the time when I was a kid so I am stoked about this. lol
I haven't finished the video yet to know if you mention this/know about it, but Tim Burton actually refused to use CGI for this in favor of the OG stop motion animation for the special effects specifically so it would have the same look/feel of the original movie, and that is just AMAZING to me. Actually if you look at the title card and pay attention to the title itself splitting into two, it has that slightly jerky feeling of stop motion animation which is just such a cool little touch, imo!
Very very excited. Everything I've seen and heard about this so far looks promising as hell. 😎
I'm glad You didn't keep pausing it.And just played it all the way through and then commented on it.But I think they did great.
This does have potential. I'll be interested to see what they do. Now I need to go back and rewatch the first one again. Also love the shirt
Very excited about the movie!
I've seen the original so many times as my girlfriend's kids had it on over and over on VHS in the early 90's. A great film as we all know. This follow up looks great. I'm gonna go see it! You're smiling. I'm smiling. Everybody else is I bet. Yeah!
at the end of the day, I'm intrigued
Beetlejuice is definitely the villain in the musical, its just the plot between Lydia and her dad that everyone talks about, but the rest of the musical Beetlejuice is the bad guy. But that is neither here nor there.
So far this teaser has me excited, I'm really happy that they got most of the actors to reprise their roles. I think maybe the Maitlands have been recast or aren't in the movie because I couldn't find mention of Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis returning anywhere. Alec I can understand why he isn't there, but I would have liked to see Geena Davis return at least. Maybe we will get a cameo explaining what happened to them? Because they were there at the end of the movie. But Keaton looks amazing as Beetlejuice, and I think he looks even more menacing than he did in the original movie in fact. Also Winona Ryder looks awesome as Lydia Deetz still, its like she hasn't aged much since the original. And Jenna Ortega seems to have been type cast as a goth, but she is a good actress and I'm sure if the writing is good, she will be great. I'll certainly, have this on my radar when it comes out.
I am so glad they didn't de-age Keaton for this. They could easily have justified it since he's a ghost, but I'm glad he looks so nasty. The aged face suits the character so well.
Apparently Tim Burton made this movie with the same techniques (stop-motion and whatever) and it made him remember how much he loved it.
Yaaaaaas. At the very least, he appears to be The Villain when he first appears, rising out of the diorama, but will he remain a villain, or will he get redeemed, or...something else? Either way, visually it looks right, the writers are GOOD writers who I believe CAN "nail" this character, so like I am with The Acolyte, I am cautiously optimistic for this project. Thanks for sharing!
I loved the cartoon and want to see the musical next time it comes to town. Having said that there’s room for different interpretations of the character. The movie is a classic and this feels like a direct sequel to it. I’m in!
I do have hope for this. 2 of the writers are the showrunners of Wednesday. I think they also wrote Spiderman 2. And Burton has said in interviews that working on this film has reinvigorated his love for film making. Keaton has said that there's not going to be too much cg. It will be mostly practical.
And they are using the same stop motion animators.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂 🥳 🎉
I like Jenna casting but it looks like she isn't playing the goth/emo. Lydia still is, and Jenna is the opposite of her mom. Which, usually how kids do
I'm really glad they included the AD, I might have tried to show up to watch the movie 2024 years before the birth of Christ.
It does look darker. I never thought the Beetlejuice premise got used to its full extent. So much you can do with it
And like you said, he’s only in the original a few minutes
If they do a third one, the world will have to say his name three times
Yes
The teaser gives me the vibes I want for a sequel. I love that Catherine O'Hara and Wynona Ryder are back. I wish we could have Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin as well, but I don't think that's realistic at all. Lydia's sheer horror at seeing Beetlejuice again was perfect. No clue what the plot could be, but I'm very interested to find out more.
I grew up on Beetlejuice, both the movie and the cartoon (my parents probably shouldn't have let an elementary schooler watch the movie, but I'm pretty sure we mostly watched the "edited for TV" version). And I adored it growing up. I watched it with my wife, who'd never seen it, a couple of years ago after I'd gotten into the musical soundtrack, and... there are parts that really, really don't age well. I love it, but it's problematic.
The musical is really fun. Beej is an anti-hero, and he's on stage for most of the show, but he's still rude and crass and dangerous. He hides it better from Lydia than he does from Adam and Barbara, and the show lampshades some of the really uncomfortable parts of the movie, while also fleshing out his backstory to make him likeable enough to headline a Broadway show. And Alex Brightman was so freakin' good in the part! I saw it just after it opened back up on Broadway a couple years ago (delayed birthday present from my wife - she bought the tickets for my birthday, but the show was like 5 months later - worth the wait), from the very back of the house, and it was so much fun! There's a lot that the soundtrack doesn't cover, and even several vocal interludes that aren't on the soundtrack ("The Whole Being Dead Thing" has a couple extra bits scattered throughout, but they didn't want to spoil certain plot points on the soundtrack). If you go into it knowing it's an adaptation and can separate it from the movie, I think you'll enjoy it. The musical, the cartoon, and the movie are all separate takes, and I love each of them for what they are.
Fun in a villain way? Like Professor Rattigan. A fun and charming character but is 100% the villain.
Love the birthday present shirt! Excited for the movie.
To be fair to the play, Beetlejuice is moved into camp villain category. There is nothing good in him but a ton of charisma
I always saw Beetlejuice as an anti hero.
What was his even slightly redeeming heroic quality in the original? Please enlighten me.
I mean, he did save the couple from their exorcism at the end... for purely selfish reasons of course
@@BreakRoomofGeeks Lydia asked Beetlejuice to save the Maitlands from being exercised and he did. Beetlejuice didn’t have to do it. He could’ve just as easily lie to Lydia and let the Maitlands enter death for the dead.
@@saulmgm1217 Given that there's a bunch of obscure rules in places (the name three times, he can't stay out if he's not married, etc.) I don't think the assertion that he wasn't bound by his deal is on very firm ground.
@@BreakRoomofGeeks It’s true. Beetlejuice committed a heroic act for nefarious reasons. Which makes him an anti hero instead of hero or villain.
Even though the cartoon painted Beetlejuice in a much more positive light, he still lied, cheated, and stole, plus committed some mental torture. Still, Beetlejuice saved an infant from being eaten by a Sand Worm in my favorite episode of the series. And I do believe Michael Keaton’s Beetlejuice would do the same thing.
This looks darker. I cant wait for it!
Yeah, she should look terrified. Dude tried to marry her, and he's dead.
Great b-day present!
This is how you do a teaser!
The the original 7 times on its original release in cinemas...and many times on tv,vhs,dvd and TH-cam since🎩
I did see many movies before i was ten so i missed both Beetlejuice and Ghostbusters but loved the cartoons for both, watching them on a13 inch tv in my parents bedroom (same tv my nes was hooked up to).
It's "Jenna" Ortega.
Yeah I had a brain fart.
Consider me teased!
Jeffery Jones and Alec Baldwin can have a watch party together for the sequel they weren’t called about.
To be fair to Alec his shooting schedule just wouldn't allow an appearance.
Idk if you saw but Burn Gorman is in the movie 😁
Honestly I don’t know how to feel about the funeral plotline for Jeffery Jones character. On one hand it’s a good way of getting rid of him, but on the other hand having characters grieve and mourn him feels like something JJ does not deserve in the slightest. Plus having his face on stuff at the funeral means he likely would have gotten paid for his likeness rights to be used
I didn't see his face so that's up in the air. And honestly as long as they don't show his face I see it as mourning the character in isolation.
@@BreakRoomofGeeks sadly you can just about see the top half of his head on a picture as the coffin is being lowered, I’d recognise those eyes anywhere
Aw dammit.
He can't be denied royalties after being convicted?
@@mrcritical6751 Your talking on the headstone right? Its so obscured and styled that I think they might be able to go with a look alike and get away with it.
Speaking as someone who doesn't enjoy the movie, I love the stage show. It has far more interesting characters and plot in my opinion. They are very different, and might as well be barely based on the same thing.
I just saw a new Doctor Who trailer just dropped. No rest for the weary
He's the bad guy? 😮
FULL LENGTH trailer next? Pretty please with a cherry on top! I just found it on YT and am dying to know what you think.
I love Tim Burton! He’s one of my favorite artists. However if I’m honest, Beatlejuice is a film I’ve enjoyed less and less as I’ve gotten older. I know he’s the villain I know he’s awful and gross and that’s the point. I think part of my problem is, for years and years now, I’ve seen so many people idolize the character of beatlejuice. In such a way that it becomes clear they’re actually full on rooting for him, and that makes me uncomfortable. But perhaps this film will help remind people that he’s the villain. I hope so and this teaser does look fantastic! I’m definitely sold on seeing this, I hope I love it more than the original! It will definitely be interesting to see a 65 year old Tim Burton build upon a film he made when he was 29.
Confession: Ive never actually seen Beetlejuice. Time to fix that I think
I haven't been able to put my finger on what bothered me about the broadway musical-ization of Beetlejuice, but i think you nailed it. Actually, my sister is a lighting designer on the touring show, so I will be seeing it when it comes around to my corner of the country. But otherwise it wouldn't normally interest me. This movie looks promising though!
If you can accept it as something separate from the movie (one of the opening jokes of the musical is that the beginning is "such a departure from the original source material"), you might enjoy the musical. I feel the musical wastes Adam and Barbara (since they're no longer the protagonists, the musical makes them way too lame), but explores Lydia's grief over losing her mom (in the musical, Delia isn't her stepmother yet, though Charles does propose to her) as well as her father's distance from her and how that affects her. Charles is, in fact, a much more interesting character in the musical (and I'm not just saying that because I played him in an amateur production I was in... lol). Regarding Beetlejuice himself, yes, they do ultimately sort of redeem him, but he spends most of the show being a mischievous fiend.
Oh no. They got Seth Grahame-Smith. His books are great, but...he can't even adapt his OWN stories well.
Eeeeeh, i dont think hes as watered down in the musical as you might think? Hes no longer the main bad guy but hes still a threat that must be dealt with.
But then, im comfortable taking the musical as its own thing. The opening song even acknowledges this, as beetlejuice notes "what a bold departure this is from the original" its NOT trying to just adapt the movie, which im glad for as straight movie adaptation musicals tend to be kind of meh to me.
the beetlejuice musical misunderstands the film's intent. beetlejuice is more like the joker, where he is extremely fun for an audience who is safe, but an extremely bad time for anyone in his immediate vicinity. i have a feeling the marriage subplot is going to come back, given we know monica bellucci is playing BJ's wife, and lydia was almost wed to him. interesting how female-centric the cast is, i wonder how that will arc the narrative.
"[I]nteresting how femal-centric the cast is…."
Oh, I didn't even think about that. I can hear all whining about "wokeness" already. Ugh.
what happened with the actor? did he commit the cide?
If only! The bastard was arrested for possession of csam and trying to solicit a 14 yr old boy for immoral purposes.
oh i thought the actor committed the cide worse then i thought @@gozerthegozarian9500
@@gozerthegozarian9500 For some reason, don't know why my brain went there but I thought the reference in the teaser was to Alec Baldwin, because of all the gun stuff going on. Now I realise it's Jeffery Jones's character. Cheers for putting me on the right track.

This looks like every other nostalgia-bait trailer. An AI could have edited this.
I have a feeling it will be another memberberry-nostalgia-milking fest
It’s promising even though I don’t think beetlejuice needs a sequel but I don’t think Jenna Ortega should be in it cause she was terrible in anything I saw of Wednesday cause they didn’t seem to understand the Addams family cause Wednesday isn’t a mystery solver even though the Addams family did appear in an episode of the new Scooby movies series an I consider the beetlejuice animated series expanded universe cannon where it expanded on the world of beetlejuice but the movies don’t have to mention it cause it was clearly aimed at kids and I loved the series growing up but in a way it’s nice they are addressing charles with what has gone down with the actor and I never understood the new trope of taking a popular movie that’s not a musical and turning it into one when the movie isn’t designed to be one like beetlejuice and waitress for example
I love beetlejuice and Jenna Ortega. Ortega is perfect at Wednesday Addams
