Of Course: "Beetlejuice 2"
— Ace

Like I said: Every movie that made more than $30 million (not a huge sum) will be remade within the next ten to fifteen years. Every. Single. One.

This isn't a remake; it's sequel. Michael Keaton will return to play the ghost that... no one especially cared about.

Can I just say the obvious thing? Everyone watched Beetlejuice on cable not because it was a great movie, or because of the ghost Beetlejuice, but because:

1. Cable was still a new-ish thing and we just watched it for no good reason and Beetlejuice was on every single day. It was the "Rocky III" of ghost comedies. We were stupid and we didn't know any better.

2. Winona Ryder was hot. Not even a little hot. But like "Oh my God that girl is so hot" hot. So hot you'd watch a full movie just to see how hot she was, even though she offered a very flat performance. You'd watch to the end, just to see her pixie-legs in those gray stockings as she levitated into the air to do the calypso dance.

This was the only reason people watched Beetlejuice 30 times, and they're not going to capture that lighting in a bottle again:

Okay well my memory failed me. You can't really see her cute gams there. The scene I'm thinking of is when she gets out of bed earlier in the movie.

But it was all about her legs and those leggings, and not about the dumb ghost you could barely even understand.

Beetlejuice was not a bad movie at all. It was kinda good, actually. Kinda.

But I think we're all pretty sick of the endless reboot/remake/sequel machine.

Thanks to Niedermeyer's Dead Horse.

7 No, Winona Ryder was not hot and she was 13 I think. She might have been hot in Edward Scissorhands when she was 19, not in Bettllejuice and her performance was so flat she might have been a pancake

23 Beetlejuice was also a Thing because Tim Burton was new and freaky and interesting. Now?

I think this sums it up:

25 Beetlejuice was released in March 1988 Winona Ryder was born in October 1971 She was actually only 16 when she filmed it in 1987. She was 17 when it was released. So, I ask the thought police, are we allowed to find Ms. Ryder attractive in Beetlejuice? Or is that the worst thing evar?

29 No offense, Ace, but I never got the love for Winona Ryder. A couple of my friends were in love with her back in the '80s and I never understood why. She's always been cute but I never thought of her as beautiful. Also, the shoplifting she did over a decade ago also showed how mentally imbalanced she is. She's certainly not attractive enough to make one ignore the crazy factor.

31 Can I just say the obvious thing? Everyone watched Beetlejuice on cable not because it was a great movie, or because of the ghost Beetlejuice, but because:

I liked Beatlejuice. I thought it was funny as hell and it was "different", breaking new ground. That is damn rare in Whoreywood.

And I have it on DVD and watch it fairly often.

34 Au contraire, Ace. The Banana Boat Song was very big when I was in grade school. We loved it. That a lone was a big draw. So was Juno's waiting room.

35 Winona Ryder is gay. I think she was 17 or so when she made the movie(born 1971, movie 1984)

37 FenelonSpoke, perhaps ace was 13 when Beetlejuice came out. That would at least make the whole thing somewhat explicable.

Some people are chubby-chasers, some people think teen Winona Ryder was hot.

But in defense of Ace, he was probably a teen at the time, too. Ryder, to a teen boy, was no doubt viewed as "not impossible to get."

Posted by: Country Singer at February 14, 2014 02:39 PM (oxjIj)

39 Movie came out in 1988. Wynona Rider was born in 1971. Do the math and you'll see she was nowhere near 13.

Actually more like 17-18... and some people on this site are not so old that she would have been "too young" for us.

Interestingly, Geena Davis, who could have been considered hot at one point revealed herself to be quite sexless in this movie, and forever after lost her hotness quotient.

I can remember having discussions about whether Winona or Catherine O'hara was hotter. Davis never came up in the discussion.

Posted by: Dr. Varno at February 14, 2014 02:49 PM (V4CBV)

95 I agree with the sentiment of this post, but disagree with all the specifics.

Winona Ryder wasn't hot yet, not in Beetlejuice. She did have that will be hot soon look, though. Geena Davis was the hot one in that pic.

Beetlejuice was hilarious. The actors all did a good job (even Baldwin, our favorite dipshit), but it was the script that made the movie a success. The writing was funny, and the afterlife that the movie created was original and interesting.

But, that doesn't mean that a sequel is just the thing that we have been waiting for. The originality that was so much fun in the first movie will obviously not be so original in the next.

We need new content, not just recycled old content.

Interestingly, Geena Davis, who could have been considered hot at one point revealed herself to be quite sexless in this movie, and forever after lost her hotness quotient.

I'm reticent to bring it up because it is a crappy movie, but Geena Davis was quite hot in Earth Girls are Easy.

107 Winona Ryder was hot. Not even a little hot. But like "Oh my God that girl is so hot" hot. So hot you'd watch a full movie just to see how hot she was, even though she offered a very flat performance.

112 I knew the thought police would jump on Ace for Ryder's age. So what's the rule, are you allowed to think your own 16 year old girlfriend from when you were 16 was hot? Are you allowed, when you are 31, to look back on pictures of your own high school girlfriend from when the both of you were 16 and think she's hot? Or does that make you a monster? Just wondering where the thought crime occurs. Do you have to burn all pictures of your high school sweetheart once you turn 20? 25? 30? Or does even remembering her and thinking how pretty she was make you a Polanski?

113 Winona Ryder in Beetlejuice was my first celebrity crush that I can remember. Or maybe that was Muppet Show-era Bernadette Peters. I dunno: my youth is kind of a blur. Though I do agree she got even hotter later, especially in Dracula. The movie itself was fun, silly and "different" before everyone had already gotten justifiably bored with Tim Burton's schtick. Doing it again 30 years later has "Ghostbusters 2"-level epic fail written all over it.

Fun movie at the time. Haven't seen it in years, so I'm not sure if it holds up.

Geena Davis was hotter than Winona in this flick, even with the frumpy dresses. Not to mention the Woody Allen pedo factor with Winona.

Best part of Beetlejuice is watching the dog step off the plank, letting Alec Baldwin drop off the bridge to a horrible death from blunt force trauma and drowning, but mostly from drowning.

125 You have got to read this Wiki. Amazing shit. Godfather was Timothy Leary? WTF? Named after the nearby city of Winona, Winona Laura Horowitz was born in Olmsted County, Minnesota. She was given her middle name, Laura, because of her parents' friendship with Laura Huxley, writer Aldous Huxley's wife.[3] Her stage name derives from Mitch Ryder, a soul and rock singer.[4] Her father chose the name on a whim because he heard a Ryder song in the background while talking on the phone with her agent.[5] Her mother, Cynthia Palmer (nÃ©e Istas), is an author, video producer, and editor.[3] Her father, Michael Horowitz, is an author, editor, publisher, and antiquarian bookseller.[3][6][7] He also worked as an archivist for psychedelic guru Dr. Timothy Leary (who was Ryder's godfather). Her father's family is Jewish (they immigrated from Romania and Russia), and Ryder has described herself as Jewish.[8] Many of her father's family perished in the Holocaust.[5][8] Her father's family was originally named "Tomchin" but took the surname "Horowitz" when they immigrated to America.[5]

Are you allowed, when you are 31, to look back on pictures of your own high school girlfriend from when the both of you were 16 and think she's hot? Or does that make you a monster? Just wondering where the thought crime occurs. Do you have to burn all pictures of your high school sweetheart once you turn 20? 25? 30? Or does even remembering her and thinking how pretty she was make you a Polanski? Posted by: Flatbush Joe at February 14, 2014 06:51 PM (ZPrif) This. Whenever I see high school pictures of girls I went to high school with or was friends with, I will think "damn, she was pretty cute in that skirt", doesn't make me a perv. Being a perv would be me following teenage girls around now and taking pictures. One of my friends has a high school age daughter. When she posted a picture of herself at the beach back during high school=appropriate. When she posts a picture of her daughter at the beach=inappropriate.

307 "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom." I love the intro sequence in Shanghai and could do without the rest. It's like the END of a BETTER Indy movie we never got to see, "Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Ashes," or something. Lao Che was a wonderfully fiendish if under-utilized villain. You can totally see him and his gang one step ahead of the Reds from Shanghai to Hong Kong in 1949, on their way to a continued life of criminal opulence.

317 Long time lurker here. Cable has been around since the 1950's. It was a way to get programming to places that could not get a signal from the city. We first got HBO via a microwave dish on our house. It was about 10 inches in diameter. That hooked up to a little box on the back of our tv. My Dad bought the stuff at a electronics store and we got HBO for free. You just had to know where to point the dish.

But thinking the same girl when she is 18 years and 1 day old is perfectly fine and normal adult male sexuality? I'm not talking about interacting with these actresses in any way. I'm talking about looking at an movie scene or picture of them and thinking how beautiful they are. Let's say 24 hrs have passed from when they filmed the two scenes. One the day before they turned 18, one on the day. Thinking she's hot the day before is disgusting, pervy, and pedo-like. Thinking she's hot the day of her 18th birthday is just normal, red-blooded male sexuality and perfectly ok? Just trying to understand your mental model.

416 >>>What, exactly is the "Woody Allen pedo factor with Winona"?

Mainly, a misuse of terms. There are those who want to redefine pedophilia from what it really means (sexual attraction to prepubescent children younger than 12 years old), to anyone below the age of consent. Of course, the idea that it is perverted for an average man to find a 16-17 year old woman attractive is ridiculous.

Through most of human history, it was common for young women to be married when they were 16-17, I guess almost all of our ancestors were a bunch of child raping perverts.

418 Hell, I'm not talking about spankbanks or anything. I'm just talking about the mental enjoyment of seeing a beautiful young actress in a movie and thinking, wow, she's so beautiful or wow, she's so hot. Scarlett Johansson was painfully beautiful in Lost in Translation. She was also only 17 when she filmed it. I watched the whole movie and wasn't rushing out to masturbate. But I still was kinda transfixed at how stunningly beautiful she was. And so were tens of millions of others, men and women. Because she was stunningly beautiful in that movie, and that movie made her a star and soon thereafter she was called the Most Beautiful Woman in the World. I guess you can call middle-aged man who found her beautiful pervy. But calling them pedo is just a bizarre misunderstanding of human sexuality.

It seemed most of the new subdivisions were prewired for cable, so the cableco's just came in and hooked up the master line and off they went. Older neighborhoods that had to have the line strung took a lot longer. We got it in the late 70's. We went from 2 1/2 channels to 15, we thought we had died and gone to heaven. Fast forward 10 years to 1987 and I move into my first apartment. I call the cableco, nope, the building doesn't get cable because the landlord won't allow it. Took another year to get it.

Barry Lyndon is a beautifully filmed movie - but slow. I get that Kubrick was trying to capture the rhythms of the 18th century, but after awhile, I felt like I was watching the entire damn century unfold before my eyes.

Also, I thought O'Neal's accent and acting were ridiculous. There's no shortage of talented Irish actors - Kubrick would have been better going with a native, but O'Neal was a big star then because of "Love Story."

But then, I've never been partial to O'Neal - I just never found him attractive. I think playing preppy ahole Oliver ruined him for me.

Like I said, you have to understand the Bushido code that was being practiced at the time in Japan. When the camp commandant took a lock of Bowie's hair, it was to take it back to Japan to dedicate to the gods at the Yakasuni shrine. Even though he was killing his enemy, he respected him as a warrior.

Rocky Horror Picture Show. Got dragged to it by peers who were into theater at the time. They made a summer of the movie one year and, I think, some of them "performed". That was about the time I guess I started associating with other people coincidentally enough. They obviously had too much time on their hands.

NO ONE watched Beetlewhateverthefuque because of Winona Rider!

She was too unknown at the time.

Gina Davis was a serious hottie during the time that film was made - tall, perky, in-a-kinda awkward looking but still kinda hot so most men thought they might be able to get a chick like that kinda way.Full lips, thin, yada yada.

Rider wasn't even on most young people's radar. Now, the unseen movie Mermaids, where she lusted after boys older than her? That might mark a start. Johnny Depp was banging her at that time.

Runner up goes to "Day After Tomorrow" which is also laughably stupid and serious, but I usually watch it if I stumble upon it, for the destruction of New York and Dennis Quaid, my own personal hottie since "The Right Stuff" which is one of the best movies ever. Dennis Quaid, Jake Ryan from Sixteen Candles and Lloyd Dobler from Say Anything, Mel Gibson, dreamy 80s awesome for the ladies.....

654 Someone mentioned they're glad they never saw Blake Edwards' "10" with Bo Derek.

I admit it's not Shakespeare, but it was my personal "coming of age" movie, as well as the first R-rated flick my parents were okay with me watching. Have fond memories of it. And there are some great moments in it... particularly Dudley Moore with the bee during Bo's wedding, and then when he backs into... a Beverly Hills police car. Yikes.

Someone else also mentioned "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer." It's gruesome to be sure, but not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

And "The Shining" took a while for me to warm up to, but IMHO if you look at it like looking at Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange" (as kind of a pitch-black comedy), it works.

663 It's unknown whether Mallory and Irvine reached the summit of Everest, and there are no pictures extant that survived the last portion of their attempted summit.

They did find Mallory's body in 1999. Pics: http://tinyurl.com/q9ak7fl

He broke his ankle in a fall, then froze to death.

Then Hillary Clinton and her Enormous Cankles conquered the summit in 1952, and history was made.

664 And "The Shining" took a while for me to warm up to, but IMHO if you look at it like looking at Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange" (as kind of a pitch-black comedy), it works.

I've read quite a few Steven King novels, Salem's Lot, The Stand, Christine, The Shining, etc., and The Shining just didn't do it for me. Shelly Duvall should've done the Olive Oil act...well, come to think of itÂ—she did!

677 Day after tomorrow: oh yeah global warming somehow causes global freezing? I only went to see that movie because I had free tickets and it was an exercise in finding how many factual errors could be introduced in a movie. My favorite was the lead character putting on snowshoes and walking from Philly to New York City in a blizzard, in like four hours. Given a good speed in average conditions would be maybe four miles per hour, he most likely died outside of a liquor store in Camden, NJ, about 70 miles short.

Posted by: Donna V. at February 14, 2014 08:35 PM (R3gO3)

I agree on "The Human Centipede." I read about it when it was released and I said that there is absolutely no way I'm watching something like that. However, I did see the remake of "I Spit On Your Grave" that was released a few years ago and it is terrible. It is about as disturbing and disgusting of a movie that you'll ever see. The only "positive" is seeing the bad guys get what they deserve but it's so brutal that when it's over you question your own humanity for watching it. I like revenge flicks where the bad guys get what they deserve (e.g., "Death Wish," "Mad Max," etc.) but the "I Spit On Your Grave" remake is downright disturbing. The same is true of "The Last House on the Left," both the original and remake. I couldn't make it through either version.

She barely even registered as female to me in that movie, and not because of her age at the time. She's actually about a year OLDER than me, making any interest she might potentially have piqued in me entirely age appropriate.

She didn't strike me as attractive in that movie because she was a mopey proto-goth. The only things missing were tatoos, facial piercings, and obvious drug use. NO THANKS.

I especially like some of his lesser known stuff. Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean and Streamers were both movies I came across flipping through the channels and was pleasantly surprised. On the other hand, I found Nashville unwatchable. Since it is so highly rated, I tried on more than one occasion, but I just did not have the intestinal fortitude to sit through it. I also agree with you on The Player.

Looking through his IMDB page, I see he also made Kansas City, another great movie. I didn't know until just now it was one of his.

725 Ryder didn't strike me as hot in 'Beetlejuice' but hot teenage actresses are dime a dozen at any given time. What was more important was that she was engaging. That is what her career was based upon. Many wouldbe actresses of the same era who solely had beauty going for them are long forgotten.

In terms of physical attractiveness, I was very surprised to see how she'd matured nicely in the Adam Sandler movie, 'Mr. Deeds.'

726 Romantic comdedies don't get much love, so to speak, but there are two that I've enjoyed: "You've Got Mail" and "Populaire". "Mail" is itself a remake of "The Little Shop On The Corner". Tom Hanks, the businessman, is treated rather nicely; capitalism and a capitalist are not treated by the writers or the director with knee-jerk disdain -and- in the end, Hanks wins the girl and the deal. Win-Win.

"Populaire' is a great film. Americans are treated with respect, another businessman wins the girl, and love conquers all. It's not so much a RomCom, but more of a love story with comedic elements.

Happy Valentines Day!

When Henry Blake was killed off the show didn't quite recover. When Trapper left it was another blow. Colonel Potter helped it a lot, though. The Charles Winchester character did what he could (and I'll admit that one of my favorite episodes is "The Giants Win the Pennant!"). But the show went on too long.

749 I'm thinking that in Boulder (or somewhere in Colorado) Rocky Horror is still a regular Saturday midnight show. The theater filled with sagging stoned hippies, doing what they have have done every week for 40 years.

750 Most of Cusack's movies didn't demand that he act, they just asked him to look cute, so he phoned it in. I haven't seen 1408, but Netflix has every crappy movie he's ever done. Maybe he just rubs me the wrong way, but every time I see "The Numbers Station" tile show up on Netflix, I can't help but wonder WHY?

754 AnonymousDrivel: if Will Ferrell's career ever takes a dive, don't be surprised if he screams and yells his way into a Jerk remake or sequel.

Seems like he'd be perfect for the role of Nevin's son, or Nevin himself.

757 Interesting. I didn't know about "Zero Hour". I'll have to watch it sometime. Even so, it was the hugely popular 70s disaster movies that 'primed the pump', audience-wise, for "Airplane!". Most of them, including me, had never seen "Zero Hour".

It was my mother who informed me I was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, so go ahead and make fun of my now deceased mother. Mom made a small mistake, and you just have to blow it up into a major event, when it was simply an old lady allowing her imagination to run.

You despicable conservatives never allow for human error, and believe you're perfect in every respect, when in reality, you're very flawed and incapable of showing compassion and understanding like a progressive.

After I'm elected President of the United States, you will pay a price never before known to man. I will make your life hell on earth. If you doubt my ability to hurt you, just remember Vince Foster and all the bimbo's who went away shamed and broke for their efforts. My dick is hard and ready to travel.

764 They're not the smartest movies, but the Pink Panther sequels of the 1970s (especially the ones with Sellers while he was alive, and Herbert Lom) were FUNNY.

765 'Head' is an interesting little curio, though it makes very little sense. Very self-important hippie indulgence, but not a lot of coherence. I'm a big Monkees fan, but pretty much everybody back at that stage was spouting pretentious counterculture BS.

769 ---: I think that was the whole idea of Head, to do something that NBC wouldn't have approved of.

Also from what I've read, the movie is kind of self-parodying. I can live with 60s hippydippyspeak in that context.

I would not want to be out there tonight.

If we're doing worst movies we've seen, hands down for me it's The Adjuster. I fell asleep and when I woke up I was dismayed to discover that only 20 minutes had passed.

Thank fuck that was at the movie theater that served beer so things got a lot better later in the movie.

Clockwork - the movie - was filmed based upon the US version of the book. The final chapter had been cut.

Original , British version, had 21 chapters, with the 21st chapter showing how as we all age / mature we tend to grow out of the wild teenage years.

837 Loved Kubrick's Clockwork Orange. Read and studied the book in high school but never really got it. The language barrier got in the way.

But Kubrick did a really good job on the stylized dystopia. I rather enjoyed the payback scenes, too. A good comeuppance flick always soothes the soul. Humble Narrator needed some kicks to the 'nads.

Both of those movies were classics, though idiosyncratic. Whatever else you think of "2001", it permanently raised the bar for realistic depiction of spaceflight on screen. As "Gravity" has now also done.

The fact that baseball will be returning warms both the cockles and sub-cockles of my heart.

Yay!!!!!!

There's a crapload of snow on the ground, but the thought of baseball season - summer and beer and hot dogs and tailgating and singing along to the 7th inning stretch and cheering and high-fiving when your team hits a homer, listening to Bob Uecker on the radio every day - yes, it's heartwarming alright. And that's despite the fact that my team - the Brewers - will probably never win a WS in my lifetime and have the Cubs to thank for not being in the cellar of the NL Central. I don't care. I still love them (well, not Braun, who really pisses me off- the team) and some of the most wonderful moments of my life have been at the ballpark.

849 440 - A freakin' men! Except for one very very very very important scene, that is. To me though, terrible movies are the ones that EVERYBODY is supposed to like, and they give awards to, but are un-entertaining, and in some cases, unwatchable. American Beauty, to me, is #1 on that list. Posted by: BurtTC Raising Arizona is one highly praised movie that sucks, IMO.

850 A Clockwork Orange was disturbing, and not a great movie, but still worth watching once. 2001 had no redeeming qualities to justify over 2.5 hours of pretentious boredom. No plot, no character development, no meaningful dialog. Nothing thought provoking. I'm fully convinced that every single person who claimed to have enjoyed it either didn't watch the movie beginning to end, or lied because they thought they were supposed to like it.

It is theoretically possible that I am drunk texting a friend outside the gray box about baseball.

She had the temerity to whinge about her Jays sucking this year and I reminded her of the identity of the teams for which I root.

Then she laughed at me.

892 "Padres?" Posted by: Grampa Jimbo The Padres have a few things going for them, Including the acquisition of Josh Johnson. Jed Gyorko is one of them. They probably won't compete in the West this season, but they have youth and talent in the minors. The talent in the West is greater than San Diego has currently, but injuries to the supposed front-runners may allow the Padres to slip into a Wildcard spot.

893 BTW, the author of "A Clockwork Orange," Anthony Burgress based his novel on an incident that occurred when he was serving in the armed forces in WWII. His pregnant wife in London was raped and beaten by (regrettably) American Army deserters, beaten so savagely that she miscarried the baby. "A Clockwork Orange" was his attempt to enter into the minds of the scum who had raped his wife.

894 Sayles also makes some great time/place movies:
Lone Star (Texas, of course)
Limbo (Alaska)
Passion Fish (Louisiana)
Sunshine State (Florida)

Sayles is very good at capturing the people of the different regions of America. Sunshine State had (the recently deceased) Ralph Waite's best performance of his career. It was a small supporting role, but he did a good job.

899 Re: Eight Men Out: For those who don't know, it was about several members of the 1919 Chicago White Sox who conspired with gamblers to throw the World Series. One of my favorite scenes in the movie concerned a pitcher who wasn't originally in on the plot. In a hotel lobby the night before he was to start a game, he was approached by two mobsters who informed him that he needed to lose. He basically told them to get fucked. The next day, as he took the mound, he looked over to his wife in the stands, who waved to him. The mobsters were sitting directly behind her with big grins on their faces. He threw the game. For some reason, this scene came to mind when John Roberts issued his ruling upholding Obamacare.

I know that Scorsese asked Johnny Carson to play Jerry Lewis' role as Jerry Langford. Supposedly Carson was set to do it... then changed his mind at the last minute.

Anyway, it's the only movie I like (or will *ever* like) with Sandra Bernhard in it. (She basically plays herself: a crazy psychotic bitch.)
