253. Beetlejuice, and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice with Special Guest Andy Ur

"I wonder where a guy, an everyday Joe like myself, can find a little action..." We have a super sized episode of the podcast, and watched "Beetlejuice" (1988) and the newly released sequel "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" (2024). This might be one of our favorite Tim Burton films,  let alone comedies, like ever.  We first talk about the original 1988 movie, which we know like the back of our gay hands - and can quote from beginning to end. The story of a newly dead Conneticut couple Adam and Barbara Maitland (Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis) who seek the help of a dead beat demon (Michael Keaton) to scare a yuppie New York couple, was a fresh take on a "haunted house" movie, and were here to say it's characters and lines are engrained in our everyday lives. We talk about the found family storyline of the Maitlands finding their surrogate daughter in Lydia Deetz (iconic goth girly Winona Ryder), 1988's Alec Bladwin's face card that could never get declined (not to mention that thick ass), and Michael Keaton absolutely crushing every line delverly as the "Ghost with the Most."  We dive into our thoughts on the sequel and let's put it this way - for a movie that doesn't need to exist, "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" is a lot of fun. This episode may be a long one, but with two movies, 36 years and a ton of iconic performances, whats an extra hour?
