Saw a bit of an interview with Keaton and he said it was the most fun he (and also Burton) had had in years shooting it. Essentially he said it was nice to have full sets, practical effects, and almost no green screen nothingness.

I’m really looking forward to this, love the original and really hoping that they do a good job. Have to say, just that moment when she sees Beetlejuice at the end, Winona Ryder’s look is pure Lydia. If she’s managed to recapture that character that’s a good sign.

Rewatching the trailer, his face is on the gravestone.
Of course, it’s Beetlejuice, so someone being dead doesn’t mean they aren’t in the film…

No, but the child porn convictions do.

Bloody hell, I was not aware of that.
The objective of the game is to win. The point of the game is to have fun. The two should never be confused.
I was never the biggest fan of beetlejuice so wasn’t particularly interested when they announced the sequel. But when I realised that neither Alec Baldwin nor Geena Davis were returning I lost all interest.
I hope people enjoy it but I doubt I’ll see it. Maybe once it comes to streaming if there’s nothing else on I might give it a shot.
I have to admit that "I only watch Beetlejuice for Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis" isn't a take you hear that often. I have to imagine at some point their characters were able to move on to the afterlife. If they were still trapped here that would be kind of sad.

For me it’s not so much that I only watch beetlejuice for Baldwin and Davis, but rather of the characters in the original, they are the ones I’d be most interested in catching up with 40-50 years later. Also, I’m a big fan of Alec Baldwin in 30 Rock and would be interested in seeing him in a more comedic role in beetlejuice 2 rather than the straight man from the original.

It isn't an attack or mockery just that it isn't what you normally see when people discuss Beetlejuice. I'm currently re-watching 30 Rock a few episodes a night to wind down in the evening so I understand.
