Is There Really An Audience For This In 2024??


I feel like they simply waited way too long to make a sequel to this and so long, Gen Z probably doesn't even know what the 1st movie was or who it was made by?? Why did they wait so long to do this??

You are wrong, this will be at least a mild hit.

gen z are really not that young anymore. those who were born in 2000 are now 23-24.

reply

Yes, but most will be watching to see if it is a train wreck.

There are plenty of millennials who grew up watching Beetlejuice on VHS, DVD, and cable who definitely would be excited to see this film too

I’m not sure really but I’m interested in what they will give us.. I imagine it will be like other sequels that came out long after the original - it will be moderately enjoyable with a little charm
But ultimately falls flat and just cannot compare to the original

I like Burtons style though

Yes. My kids love Beetlejuice (ages 14 - 25) and they are excited for this. We don't go to the movies often, but they've asked to go for this.

It worked for Top Gun: Maverick

I think you might be surprised.

Very surprised I might add 😲

I just bought my ticket to see it on Halloween night and I'm 42.
