So Shauna, since I've been gone,

22
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,920
I've heard that you actually had quite the encounter.

23
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:39,840
- I did.

24
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,840
Okay, so I have two jobs.

25
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,000
I don't know how it happened.

26
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,120
Whoops.

27
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,040
- The Academy.

28
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,360
- Technically three.

29
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,160
- Oh god, this is a job too.

30
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:50,000
- Yeah.

31
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:50,840
- Shit, I need to do it.

32
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:51,680
- Good bad.

33
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:52,760
This is my last episode.

34
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,160
(laughing)

35
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,120
So I bartend at a place in Phoenix.

36
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:04,120
And it was a chill Sunday night in this guy walks in

37
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,120
and he had a mask on like a COVID style mask

38
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,600
and just has on a baby blue like New York Yankees hat

39
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:12,880
with the stickers still on,

40
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,840
believe fucking belt.

41
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:15,680
- Okay.

42
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,480
- And these clean Jordans.

43
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,400
- Okay.

44
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,680
- And it's like, can I buy something so I can charge my cell phone

45
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,440
and I said, well, yeah, of course, you're on a beard.

46
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:25,540
So he sits at the bar,

47
00:01:25,540 --> 00:01:27,280
his plugs in his cell phone and I was like,

48
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,720
what do you usually like to drink?

49
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,200
- Bud light.

50
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,440
- Well, we don't have any Bud light

51
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:32,440
'cause we're a craft beer bar.

52
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,480
But here let me pour you like a light beer or something similar.

53
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,600
So I put it down in front of him and it came out to like

54
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,440
$6 and he puts down a 20.

55
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,280
I give him his change and he just leaves the change sitting there.

56
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,320
And after a couple of minutes, he's like, this is your tip.

57
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:46,160
- Yeah.

58
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,880
- Like, okay.

59
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,000
Interesting.

60
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,600
- He leaves the mask on and he's sitting there talking

61
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,880
to a guy at the bar and they're talking about kid cutie

62
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,280
and Kanye, like old Kanye versus New Kanye.

63
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,680
- And I thought this was the most interesting part.

64
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,440
So they're going into this discussion of music.

65
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:11,440
- How Kanye has really started to go downhill, right?

66
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,360
- He said that he does not like,

67
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,520
I haven't even said who this is.

68
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:15,600
- Yeah, no, but that's a point.

69
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,440
- Okay.

70
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,880
So he is talking about how new Kanye's music's weird.

71
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,600
He has some song, I guess I didn't listen to it

72
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,200
'cause fuck Kanye, where he repeats the same term,

73
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,400
like 23 times.

74
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,640
And he was like, seriously, you think that's cool

75
00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:28,480
to the next guy?

76
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:29,320
- Yeah.

77
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,020
- Like they were joking, riffing,

78
00:02:30,020 --> 00:02:31,760
'cause he's like, oh, I think Kanye is a matte,

79
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:32,600
a matte, a matte.

80
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,240
- I don't know, I still like him.

81
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:35,400
And he's like, he thought that was cool.

82
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,240
- He thought that was good.

83
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:37,080
- He said that's what he was talking to.

84
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,600
- He thought that was good.

85
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,280
- And I'm looking at him and I can see his eyes.

86
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,880
And I said, you look a lot like Lil Nas X.

87
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,320
And he's like, yeah, I get that a lot.

88
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,440
At this point, he still is not taking a single sip

89
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:51,280
of his peer.

90
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:52,320
- Yeah, 'cause he doesn't want to take the mask off.

91
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,200
- He doesn't want to take the mask off.

92
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,440
- And so I start putting like this together.

93
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,960
I'm like, why did he tip us so much for single beer

94
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,400
that he hasn't even drank?

95
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:01,640
Hasn't taken his mask off,

96
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:04,360
'cause he doesn't want us to see his face.

97
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:05,720
So he's there for a while.

98
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,720
He ends up buying like a can to go.

99
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,920
He only takes off his mask when he goes to the back

100
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:11,520
of the restaurant.

101
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,120
We're no one can see him.

102
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,080
And I see him dancing to the music like this.

103
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,200
(laughing)

104
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,480
And I was like, and I texted my coworker

105
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,760
and I said, dog, I'm pretty sure that's Lil Nas X.

106
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,480
Like I think that is him.

107
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:25,480
- Yeah.

108
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,320
- So he's paying, closing out on the,

109
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:29,720
he pays for the to go beer.

110
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,680
And again, tips another like 10 bucks, 20 bucks.

111
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,120
And I was like, you have to tell us

112
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,320
if you're secretly a little Nas X, okay.

113
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,000
And he just goes, oh, you caught me all jokingly.

114
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,120
A black sedan pulls up in the middle of the street

115
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,440
outside with tinted windows.

116
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,280
He walks up, gets in the back seat and drives away.

117
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,600
And I go Lil Nas X's Instagram page.

118
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,440
- Yeah.

119
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:53,280
- He's in Arizona.

120
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,120
- Oh wow.

121
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:55,800
- And he posted the same hat that he was wearing.

122
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,440
So it was 100% Lil Nas X.

123
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,400
- I love it, but he's like, oh, I'll pay for something.

124
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:02,640
It's like, you could have just been like,

125
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:03,720
can I trust my phone?

126
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:04,960
- He could have been like, I'm Lil Nas X.

127
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,200
Can I trust my phone?

128
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,040
- Yes.

129
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,960
- I would have probably had a lot more questions.

130
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,280
Like what, what's going on?

131
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:12,400
- Why am I here?

132
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,960
- He walked in through like the weird side entrance

133
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,200
on the street.

134
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,240
- Oh, maybe he has like a hook up.

135
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,560
- That's for the week.

136
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,720
The rest of the night was just,

137
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,080
all the customers, he came and all the regulars were like,

138
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,360
Lil Nas X was just here.

139
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:31,440
- Yeah, it's for the real T of it all is the opinion on Kanye.

140
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,560
- It's the correct opinion.

141
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:33,400
- It's a correct opinion.

142
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,560
- It's much better on you, God yeah.

143
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:35,400
- Yeah.

144
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,200
- And then he was very nice.

145
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,680
He was so delightful.

146
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:38,520
And then I found a lot,

147
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:39,600
'cause I was searching Reddit.

148
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,400
I was in a Lil Nas X Reddit holder.

149
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:42,240
- Yeah.

150
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,920
- And I found a lot of pictures of him wearing those shoes,

151
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,640
wearing the belt with the hat.

152
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,120
- So you really went in and there are a lot of things.

153
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,560
- Yeah, I love that.

154
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:51,560
- He was so thoughtful.

155
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:52,400
- He was so thoughtful.

156
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,800
- The one time I'm gone, I was like, damn it.

157
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:55,640
- Literally.

158
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,480
And I took that ship from another bartender

159
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,080
that she came in later to like drink.

160
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,400
And she's like, the one night I'm not working,

161
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,960
you get to meet Lil Nas X.

162
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,960
After I told him, but he looked like Lil Nas X,

163
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,800
I was like, that's a compliment by the way,

164
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,120
because I love him.

165
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:10,960
- Yeah.

166
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,200
- And I really do.

167
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:13,040
I love him.

168
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:13,880
- Yeah.

169
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,400
- So it's so meta.

170
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:16,960
- It's amazing.

171
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,280
- That is true.

172
00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:20,880
Like I bet you celebrities really look at COVID

173
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,520
so differently because they did get anonymity

174
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,960
that they didn't normally have.

175
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,640
And like I think Lil Nas X has very distinct eyes,

176
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,120
but even that's how I thought he's pretty nice.

177
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:32,960
- Oh geez.

178
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,400
- No, like who that person is.

179
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,600
And like, you know, like someone like a Harry Styles.

180
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:39,440
- Yeah.

181
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,760
- Who would normally get like stalked.

182
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,280
Like people figured out what his mass face looked like.

183
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:44,120
- Yeah.

184
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,000
- But for like a period of time, like they were able

185
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,240
to kind of go out and I exist.

186
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,480
So it's probably like a weird juxtaposition for them of like,

187
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,880
oh yeah, I can just look like it.

188
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:54,720
- Kind of lay in the--

189
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:55,520
- Someone who's like a germaphogue.

190
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:56,360
- Yeah.

191
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,360
And like when he first walked in,

192
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,600
that's what I just kind of assumed.

193
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,400
I can no offense to anyone who still looks mask.

194
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,880
Like I mean deficient to people.

195
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,040
- Do you need it?

196
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,320
- But then it became clear that he's not even drinking the beer.

197
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,160
He never took a single sip of the beer.

198
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,000
- Yeah.

199
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,280
- I guess you would have to go like up.

200
00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:11,120
- Yeah.

201
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:11,960
- And like, yeah.

202
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,640
- And then I saw one picture of him recently

203
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,200
and he had like grills and stuff.

204
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,560
- And I, then you would have really, really, yeah.

205
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,960
So I could just man with a diamonds in his teeth

206
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,160
and from a big, his diamond earrings too.

207
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,000
Like longer.

208
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,240
- I looked at him, I was like, this is a wealthy person.

209
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,760
(laughing)

210
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,200
I have my shea and earrings on.

211
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,080
I'm like, this is like rich person.

212
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,200
- I love that so much.

213
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,120
Well, while you were meeting Little Nons' ex,

214
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,200
I was actually watching the sequel, "Lives of Mormon Wise,"

215
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,440
which, to a very, very, very different--

216
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,600
- Speaking of Little Nons' ex.

217
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,600
- Oh, so, you know, the, so they were,

218
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,880
well, Taylor Frankie Paul, who's like the main character

219
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,040
on the show, is known for the soft swinging Mormon.

220
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,440
- Okay, wait, real quick clarifying question.

221
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,640
Is this a reality show or a scripted show?

222
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:01,760
- It's a reality show.

223
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:02,840
- Okay, what's it on?

224
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:07,040
- It's on Hulu now, but it started with these TikTokers.

225
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,520
And so basically like a couple of years ago,

226
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,640
the soft swinging Mormon scandal came out.

227
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,160
- It's the soft swinging.

228
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,600
But like, actually having sex.

229
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,960
- So so. - So then get that far into it.

230
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,680
But they were like swapping, they were like,

231
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,720
swapping husbands, and doing all the stuff.

232
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:25,560
- Would they do all the stuff?

233
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:26,400
- And stuff?

234
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:27,240
- The side sex.

235
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:28,480
Like, they weren't doing sex.

236
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:29,320
- Yeah, yeah.

237
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,600
They weren't doing sex, but they're doing everything but.

238
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,280
And so it comes out, but like, it comes out on Reddit.

239
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,680
And so this girl, Taylor Frankie Paul,

240
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,000
decides to just be like, you know what, screw it.

241
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,120
No one's taking my story.

242
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,200
I'm gonna go tell it.

243
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:43,040
- How it?

244
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,640
- It's on the internet and starts telling this whole story.

245
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,280
And you know, the Hulu producers were like,

246
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:50,280
we gotta get on with this.

247
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,120
- More Mormons.

248
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,880
- And so they start shooting this pilot

249
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,440
with this woman, Taylor Frankie Paul.

250
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,160
As this happens, she starts stating another guy,

251
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,880
while they're filming the pilot,

252
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,320
she gets arrested for domestic violence.

253
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,160
- Oh my God.

254
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,760
- And it is called the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

255
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,000
And it's all about this Mormon mom talk like,

256
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,080
is it like Utah, like they are very Mormon?

257
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:15,920
- Even more Mormon.

258
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,600
- Some of them are very Mormon.

259
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,600
Some of them are not very Mormon on the show.

260
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,120
- Is there they like fundamentalist?

261
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:25,280
- Yeah, I mean, most Mormon Utah's are very, very strict.

262
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,600
Just because they've grown up in that culture.

263
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,120
So it's, this is how the world got introduced to them.

264
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,120
And then you come in and it's the first episode

265
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,120
I will not lie, it's a little hard to get through.

266
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,720
But after it looked me.

267
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:38,560
- In turn.

268
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:39,400
- Oh my God, it's so good.

269
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,960
I never followed them before, but now I'm just like,

270
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,840
it's so sucked in on all their drama.

271
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,880
There's a bunch of after-cash drama.

272
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:46,720
- What?

273
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:47,560
- This one male-ciffin of world.

274
00:08:47,560 --> 00:08:50,040
- I'm really in reality shows most of the time.

275
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,040
- She wants to play the victim so bad,

276
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,760
but in turn she made herself the biggest villain

277
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,440
in the whole show.

278
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,600
And it's so good.

279
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,560
And I'm just so excited for her season too.

280
00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:04,040
So a very opposite size of the spectrum.

281
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,440
But we were having fun.

282
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,080
I was, I was in a hotel in San Francisco,

283
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,000
learned about Utah, but two very different places.

284
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,360
Let's say that, you know.

285
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,520
- So funny that like the things that we've watched

286
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,520
when we were in a hotel room,

287
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,200
pretty true amount of time, like you end up

288
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,080
rewatching old Adam Sandler movies.

289
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,320
They're always on.

290
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,080
Happy Gilmore is always on.

291
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:24,920
- Yeah.

292
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,920
- Or you find some E or was Bravo or something

293
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:28,920
and you're like, whatever.

294
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,280
- Yeah, I got all the sex in the city.

295
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:31,760
- It's always all sex in the city.

296
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,600
And I watch that in every hotel room.

297
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,480
But yeah, it's like you gotta find something

298
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,960
to kill those evenings.

299
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:37,800
- Kill those evenings.

300
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,560
- Kill those evenings.

301
00:09:39,560 --> 00:09:40,400
- Awesome.

302
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:41,640
Well, that sounds amazing.

303
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:42,480
- Yeah.

304
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,000
- Speaking of what might happen to us in the afterlife,

305
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,920
we're gonna talk about a movie sequel

306
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,640
that recently came out that was 40 years in the making.

307
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,400
(dramatic music)

308
00:09:54,400 --> 00:10:00,240
The biggest movie news this past year or so, probably.

309
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,360
Was the announcement of a sequel to Beetlejuice

310
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,480
some 49 years since the first one.

311
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:07,920
I'm just kidding, it was 36.

312
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,760
- You made me feel pretty old then.

313
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,600
- What?

314
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,440
- What?

315
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:12,280
- What?

316
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:13,280
- How did that work?

317
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:14,360
- How did that work?

318
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,640
Tim Burton made a sequel to the first movie

319
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,000
and it just came out.

320
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,880
We're gonna talk about that and have a slightly

321
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,800
spoilery discussion.

322
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,520
But let's first revisit the reason for the sequel,

323
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,240
1988 Beetlejuice.

324
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,080
- Yes.

325
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,720
And so like we mentioned,

326
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,960
we're gonna talk a little bit about Beetlejuice.

327
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,680
It came out 36 years ago.

328
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:37,560
So we are gonna spoil that a little bit for you.

329
00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:38,600
- When we were in "Spoil This Movie"

330
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:39,440
that came out in the '80s.

331
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:40,280
- Yeah, absolutely.

332
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:41,120
- Yes, yes, yes.

333
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,320
Once we get into the newest movie that came out,

334
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,800
"Beatlejuice Beetlejuice," we will kind of let you know

335
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,000
when the spoilers are so you can pause it,

336
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,000
come back after you've seen the movie.

337
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,000
- Mm-hmm.

338
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,240
- But you know, really earlier today,

339
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,200
I wanted to actually go in and rewatch Beetlejuice.

340
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,840
You know, you guys had done an episode on Beetlejuice

341
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:01,840
in the past, the trailer.

342
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:02,680
- And I was pre-elever.

343
00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:04,000
- Before I had joined.

344
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,680
So I wanted to kind of quickly give out my

345
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,440
rendition of my Beetlejuice thoughts

346
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,360
and really ultimately what I thought of the movie.

347
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,400
The first note that I have for you guys is,

348
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,000
how did I forget "Alic Baldwin" used to be so hot?

349
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,880
- He was so handsome in this movie.

350
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,880
- Yeah, oh my God.

351
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,040
- And she and Davis is gorgeous.

352
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:28,040
- Yeah, I think it's all the evil inside of "Alic Baldwin"

353
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,360
that made me forget it.

354
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,440
And then it has made him just like rapidly lose it.

355
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,280
- He just gets like saggy or

356
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,160
- Yeah. - And they're more cranky.

357
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,520
- Yeah, all the hateful and - Yeah, all the hateful.

358
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:39,360
- All the hateful. - All the hateful.

359
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:40,520
- All the hateful. - All the hateful.

360
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:41,520
- And all those things.

361
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:42,680
But really,

362
00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:46,480
the rapid succession of my note is,

363
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,800
what would you realistically do if your neighbor

364
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,760
was putting your house on the market without your consent?

365
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:52,760
- What?

366
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:53,920
- Can you imagine?

367
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,560
- Like she just comes in and it's like,

368
00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:57,640
this house is much too big for you.

369
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,160
I've actually put it on the off,

370
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,440
or I put it up and I'm already getting offers for this.

371
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,600
- How dare you live here?

372
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:03,440
- Yeah, first of all.

373
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,840
- Because you don't have children.

374
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,480
- And it's like, like what a crazy concept.

375
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,320
Just your neighbor actually putting her house

376
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,600
on the market without her consent.

377
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:13,440
- She's hustling.

378
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,440
- She's a real estate. - She's a real estate.

379
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,440
- She's a real estate. - She's a real estate.

380
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:17,280
- She has some work.

381
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,280
- It's chill.

382
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,040
- I love these just random notes.

383
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,360
- Yeah, the next one is,

384
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,920
that dog had murder in its soul.

385
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,520
- I forgot there was a dog.

386
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,440
- The dog murders them.

387
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,280
A lot of murders.

388
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:29,560
- I was like runs in front of the con.

389
00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:30,720
- Yeah, runs in front of the con.

390
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,560
- That's her. - And then they actually

391
00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:33,400
like fall into the water.

392
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:34,240
- That's her, okay.

393
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,360
- I do have some semantics of it

394
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,240
because the windows were open.

395
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,120
So realistically,

396
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,600
how could we not get out of the car?

397
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,640
- Maybe they just gave up.

398
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,920
- Yeah, they just said, you know what, screw it.

399
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,600
- I mean, at some point you just kind of go,

400
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:49,520
"It had to take me."

401
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,280
- When I was actually-- - She just

402
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:51,120
- She just took the wheel.

403
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,880
- When I was researching this though,

404
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,440
the original script for this film

405
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,600
had a much much darker turn.

406
00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,400
- Like that thing. - That they were gonna do.

407
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,760
Where it was these people from within this city

408
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,400
of wherever they are in Connecticut

409
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,760
is chasing them, like kind of like pitchfork style.

410
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:09,760
- Or what?

411
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,960
- And ultimately they're trying to avoid them

412
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,240
and they drown.

413
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,040
- So they died like the 1600s or something.

414
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,120
- Yeah, they drown.

415
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,520
- Like horrifically, like while these people

416
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,960
were chasing them and they ended up cutting it out

417
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,720
of the story to make it more of like a horror comedy.

418
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:27,560
- Yeah.

419
00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:29,440
- Ultimately I think it was a good choice,

420
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:30,120
but the original-- - A dog

421
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,520
- Reading out in front of your car

422
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:32,520
and you fall off the bridge.

423
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,360
- Yeah, it's pretty.

424
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,200
- It's pretty like, oh, yeah.

425
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,040
- Yeah, yeah.

426
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,440
- Oh, I'm in my dream house, my staycation,

427
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,960
and then they end up getting there.

428
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,200
My next no was ultimately,

429
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,400
if there are six in the afterlife,

430
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,240
does that mean that there's weed?

431
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,480
I'm asking the really important question,

432
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:50,440
fear. - I live in order to know

433
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,520
before she goes. (laughs)

434
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,320
If she can bring her Rick and Morty Bong.

435
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,640
- Yeah, it's a fair question.

436
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,680
- It's my Rick and Morty coming with me.

437
00:13:57,680 --> 00:14:00,880
He better, me seeks, me seeks, you know.

438
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,960
- And you name your Bong, Mr. Meessing.

439
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,560
- Yeah, because it helps me with so many things, you know.

440
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:07,560
Me seek.

441
00:14:07,560 --> 00:14:08,400
- Me seek.

442
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,720
- Yeah, and then my final no in this one was

443
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,080
Keaton must have had so much fun being this character,

444
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,120
and he's recently said in interviews

445
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,600
that this is actually his favorite character,

446
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,800
he's played all time, so.

447
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,680
- He just gets to be so silly in goofy,

448
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,960
and he gets that one F-bomb per movie.

449
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,240
- Yeah, I wonder if he was like,

450
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,920
channeling a specific person,

451
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,640
like, you know how Patrick Bateman is inspired

452
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,200
by Tom Cruise.

453
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,360
- Jumping up and down the couch.

454
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,840
- Yeah, I really are just the psychopaths.

455
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,200
- Just the best thing.

456
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,920
- That Tom Cruise is is like,

457
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,040
who do you think Keaton was like channeling?

458
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,440
Like, in my mind, the first thing I thought of

459
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,000
was like Harvey Weinstein.

460
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,320
- Oh my God.

461
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,800
- 'Cause Beetlejuice is a fucking creep, okay.

462
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:48,640
- Beetlejuice really is.

463
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:49,800
- He's a been the first movie.

464
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:50,880
- In the first movie, he's a predator.

465
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,720
- He's very, very touchy.

466
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:53,920
- He's like, roping.

467
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:54,760
- He's roping.

468
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:55,600
- He's roping.

469
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,200
- Real quick, we've already kind of covered it,

470
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,520
but Beetlejuice was directed by Tim Burton,

471
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,160
Michael McDowell, Warren Scar and Larry Wilson,

472
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:04,480
got writing credits.

473
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,920
Alec Baldwin and Gina Davis were in it,

474
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,160
famously Michael Keaton that we mentioned

475
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,760
and our fave here at the podcast, Winona writer.

476
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,200
The obnoxious Beetlejuice played by Michael Keaton

477
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,680
was kind of a predator.

478
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,680
He wants to marry Lydia, who is a teenager.

479
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,640
- She's strange.

480
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:24,480
- Yeah.

481
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:25,320
- And unusual.

482
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:26,160
- She's so weird.

483
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,400
- I quote Beetlejuice all the time, Andrew.

484
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,720
Whenever I, like,

485
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,400
in a depressive episode or because I'm quote,

486
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,640
"Gotha, Jason."

487
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:35,480
- Yeah.

488
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,480
- My whole life is a dark room.

489
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,800
One, dark room.

490
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:40,800
(laughs)

491
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,400
- He's like, are you doing okay?

492
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:43,240
- No.

493
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:44,080
- No.

494
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,240
- Have I ever?

495
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,840
- I do think it's kind of interesting.

496
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,800
So like the way that Tim Burton displays purgatory,

497
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,120
really ultimately is like the civil servant government office.

498
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:55,960
- Is it a shot?

499
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,040
- Like even after you die,

500
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,760
you still have to have a shot.

501
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,000
- Are you kidding me?

502
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,240
That's my health.

503
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,480
- Well, that's like the joke in the first one.

504
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,600
She's like, I wouldn't have had my little accident.

505
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,440
If I knew this was gonna happen.

506
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:11,040
So like Tim Burton's portrayal of purgatory,

507
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,000
which is where you go in religion.

508
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:18,000
If you, you know, live yourself is civil servant.

509
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:18,840
(laughs)

510
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,200
- It's kind of weird, like, if you think about Tim Burton's,

511
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,680
I don't know, concept of the afterlife, like you're saying.

512
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,520
So there's a heaven and a hell, it seems like.

513
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,960
And then in this area where beetle juiced

514
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,480
in the waiting room exists is kind of your waiting room.

515
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,160
So when you first die, no matter how good you are on earth,

516
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,360
you have to go here.

517
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:39,200
- Yep.

518
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,280
- And then they decide whether or not you go to the great beyond

519
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,640
or you burn and hell, I kind of.

520
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:50,360
- So the way that I thought of it more was Burton's idea was,

521
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,040
you are within the place that you died.

522
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,560
And if you want to try to go somewhere else or change that,

523
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,960
like you go into that civil servanthood,

524
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:01,520
but I don't know if the lore behind it

525
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,960
has really been broken down, or meant to be.

526
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,200
- I mean, I guess we can't hurt someone

527
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,600
- It's much smarter than us has done it.

528
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,640
- Right, I guess we'll get a little into it

529
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,320
when we talk about the sequel.

530
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,480
'Cause they have different levels of kind of the afterlife

531
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:15,280
than the ATES.

532
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,800
So we'll retouch that there.

533
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,600
But I would hate to think that I was like a good person,

534
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,000
my whole life, and then I'd die.

535
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,320
And I'd just like,

536
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,760
- Sean, you have to work at the DMV now.

537
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,640
Are you kidding me?

538
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,720
- Yeah, I like, no, wait, why?

539
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,840
- I should have sent more.

540
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,280
- I don't know if I know it.

541
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,000
I was just gonna be at the DMV no matter what.

542
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,400
I would have done a lot more for that.

543
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,560
- I would have had a lot more fun.

544
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,120
I would have had a lot more fun.

545
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:39,720
- Well, what's really interesting about the first

546
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,520
Beetlejuice movie, and I think a lot of people forget this

547
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,040
is this is actually Tim Burton's second movie

548
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:45,880
than he ever did.

549
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,000
- I didn't know that.

550
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:47,840
- What was the first one?

551
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:48,840
- Peewee's big adventure.

552
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,840
- Oh my God, I always forget that he did.

553
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,840
- Yeah, so he was very like fun and kind of silly and goofy.

554
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,200
And that's how people saw him.

555
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,880
And a lot of the people who took this all thought

556
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:01,920
that their careers were gonna be ended

557
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,200
by teaming this on.

558
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,040
- Interesting.

559
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,400
- But they believed in it as like an independent film

560
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,760
and something that was worth saying.

561
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,640
And most people don't know this,

562
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,080
but the studio at the last minute

563
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,520
wanted to rename it from Beetlejuice to House of Ghost,

564
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,360
which are you talking?

565
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:19,280
- House of Ghost.

566
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:20,440
- House of Ghost, what?

567
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:21,280
- That's dumb.

568
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,840
- The dumbest thing I've ever heard.

569
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:23,680
- Don't lie.

570
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,480
- And in sarcasm, Tim Burton said,

571
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,680
"We should just call it scared sheetless."

572
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,360
And the producers didn't take it as a joke

573
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:34,280
and it was almost called scared sheetless.

574
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:35,120
(laughing)

575
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:37,600
- Which I actually didn't hate it

576
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,760
because they do have the sheets over them

577
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:41,040
and the first movie.

578
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,800
And it's a little bit of tongue and cheek within it,

579
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,360
but I think ultimately like for it to not be Beetlejuice

580
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:51,160
would just be like there is a alternate universe

581
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,560
where that exists and who knows?

582
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:54,720
- The burn cut.

583
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:55,720
- Yeah, right.

584
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,000
- Yeah, scared sheetless.

585
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,840
- I love the practical effects in the original Beetlejuice

586
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,800
and they bring that a lot back for the second one

587
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,160
how it's kind of the practical,

588
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:03,680
- The practical, - The practical,

589
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:04,680
- and practical.

590
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,120
- I love that style that Tim Burton brings us up.

591
00:19:07,120 --> 00:19:09,480
- So the first movie out of all the budget,

592
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,720
they only dedicated $1 million to CGI

593
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,360
in the original movie.

594
00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:19,120
And at the time CGI was not what it is today.

595
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:21,480
So that was ultimately like nothing in there

596
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,600
and he really wanted to keep that practical element

597
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,000
and he's really done that a lot throughout the movies

598
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,200
that he's been within.

599
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,400
Actually, one of the main negotiation points

600
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,240
that Tim Burton and Michael Keaton both had

601
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,320
with doing Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

602
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,160
was they did not want overproduction of CGI

603
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,560
and that they had to continue stop motion

604
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,000
in a lot of these real aspects of the movie.

605
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,400
- Yeah, and some interesting facts that I found

606
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,920
was researching for this is instead of the iconic

607
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,200
dayo song that we all know that is persistent

608
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,720
throughout the movie, it was actually almost

609
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,920
two different songs in stead.

610
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,920
And so it's, if I didn't care by the ink spots

611
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,560
would have been within the dinner scene.

612
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,360
- I know, familiar song from 1939.

613
00:20:15,360 --> 00:20:16,200
- Okay.

614
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,960
- So don't play me if I'm not knowing it.

615
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,800
And then in the final scene where Lydia is with the,

616
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,280
like lifted up after she passed the elevetating.

617
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,960
- Yeah, it was going to be when a man loves a woman.

618
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,160
- Oh, that's kind of cute.

619
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,000
- Yeah.

620
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:30,840
- What did it end up being?

621
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:31,680
I don't remember.

622
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:32,840
- Jumping the line.

623
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:33,680
- Mm-hmm.

624
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,320
- Any of the football players and all that in there.

625
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:36,160
- Oh, that's right.

626
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,000
- Oh, man.

627
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,360
Oh my God, that scene at the dinner table

628
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:40,600
where they're singing dayo is so fun.

629
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,120
- Yeah, we really can't stop it.

630
00:20:42,120 --> 00:20:44,120
- And then, the Capitol hair is amazing

631
00:20:44,120 --> 00:20:46,040
because she puts her facial expressions

632
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,320
of just being confused, but also dancing.

633
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,320
- She's such a good physical comedy.

634
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,320
- You know, okay, I watched Beetlejuice

635
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,360
when we had our Beetlejuice episode three years ago, maybe.

636
00:20:58,360 --> 00:21:02,560
I didn't see Beetlejuice until I was in my 20s.

637
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,400
- Really?

638
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:04,240
- Yeah.

639
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,080
- I have no idea why.

640
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,120
- I think I was like nine.

641
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:08,960
- And that's a most people, like most millennials.

642
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,280
- It just escaped me.

643
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,120
I don't know why.

644
00:21:11,120 --> 00:21:15,160
- And I also used to be very sensitive.

645
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,560
I had a sensitive disposition as a child.

646
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:18,400
- To what?

647
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,200
- Things just scared me very easily.

648
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,040
- Oh, that's interesting.

649
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,480
- Yeah, and so if I saw something in a movie

650
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:24,800
or something that I thought was scary

651
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,000
or that might be scary, I was like,

652
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:26,920
I don't wanna watch that.

653
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:27,920
It looks scary.

654
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:28,760
- Really?

655
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,080
- And now I love horror movies, but,

656
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,920
and not a whole lot offends me unless it's gratuitous violence.

657
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,520
But, no, I think as a kid, I just thought,

658
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,800
oh, that looks like a scary movie.

659
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:39,120
I don't wanna watch that.

660
00:21:39,120 --> 00:21:40,360
So it took me a long time,

661
00:21:40,360 --> 00:21:41,920
but, I mean, now I love it.

662
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,120
I think it's amazing.

663
00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:43,960
- That's interesting.

664
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,680
- Well, in the original script,

665
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,520
Larry Wilson, he's one of the producers,

666
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,560
actually talks about the original ending for Lydia,

667
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,280
was actually gonna be significantly darker.

668
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:55,120
- Ooh.

669
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:58,120
- And the film would have ended with Lydia dying in a fire

670
00:21:58,120 --> 00:22:00,920
and joining her friends in the afterlife.

671
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,800
- Oh, no, that's off.

672
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,160
- They changed it, considering the message,

673
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,400
it would send to young people that death would be

674
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:09,880
a happy ending.

675
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:10,720
- Yeah.

676
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,920
- And she was dealing with suicidal ideations

677
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:14,760
throughout the movie.

678
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,080
- She's depressed the whole living room.

679
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,840
- So I think that it was good that they changed it.

680
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,640
- That reminds me of the finale

681
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,240
of chilling adventures of Sabrina.

682
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,640
She dies, and then her boyfriend ends up killing himself,

683
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,440
so he can be with her in the afterlife.

684
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,440
And I remember thinking that ruined the whole show.

685
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:31,280
- Yeah.

686
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,200
- Because she was like, so it's young people watching this stuff,

687
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,520
and they think, oh, I could just kill myself

688
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,120
to be with my friends again.

689
00:22:37,120 --> 00:22:38,120
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

690
00:22:38,120 --> 00:22:39,120
- The snow, the snow, the snow, the snow.

691
00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:43,040
- And some original script things that were changed.

692
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,560
Beetlejuice, well, first Lydia wasn't gonna be

693
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:46,560
the main character.

694
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,600
Lydia had a sister who was gonna be the main character.

695
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,360
They ended up cutting her.

696
00:22:51,360 --> 00:22:55,120
Beetlejuice was supposed to be a short Middle Eastern man,

697
00:22:55,120 --> 00:22:59,560
who eventually turned into like a bat with wings thing.

698
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,280
And Tim Burton decided to change that.

699
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,160
And the original director on this project

700
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:06,920
was actually Wes Craven.

701
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:11,280
Before he left, and they gave it to Tim Burton.

702
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,320
- Interesting, so different would it have been?

703
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,000
- Yes, Wes Craven was willing to be the main character.

704
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,840
- I think the original script would have made sense

705
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,560
for Wes Craven, because the brutal murder from the town

706
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:22,920
is people-- - It would have been a lot darker

707
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,800
and maybe not like in tongue and cheek comedy.

708
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,760
- Yeah, and up the cold toss like it is today.

709
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,880
- But a fun fact that I know about Beetlejuice.

710
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,240
Beetlejuice is only on screen for 18 minutes

711
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,880
in the Forrestville. - Yes.

712
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,520
- So he makes such an impact in that first movie

713
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,200
with such little screen time,

714
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,840
and the whole thing's named after him.

715
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,760
- Yeah, but it's like you watch that movie

716
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,640
and you don't realize really he was only in it for 18 minutes

717
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,720
like I've just said.

718
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,920
- You know the part where he like kicks down the tree

719
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,040
and he's like, "What is that?"

720
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,640
And like grabs his nuts or whatever.

721
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:55,720
That is so gross. - That is so gross.

722
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:56,560
- It defends it.

723
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,360
- Yeah, that is actually an outtake of the set.

724
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:01,520
Actually wasn't supposed to do that.

725
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,240
And he kicks it and it falls down

726
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,360
and he was doing that at the set like a designer.

727
00:24:06,360 --> 00:24:07,520
- Oh my God.

728
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,720
- And Timberlion decided to keep it in.

729
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,240
- That's hilarious. - And so there are

730
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,200
a lot of those little moments within it.

731
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,680
One of the really interesting things that I saw

732
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,040
from everyone within this project

733
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,120
and a lot of Timberlion projects is he lets people

734
00:24:22,120 --> 00:24:27,120
lead with the character they want to go forward with.

735
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:28,800
- Like let it open around with it.

736
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,440
- Yeah, and Beetlejuice is such a bombastic character

737
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,680
that you have to let him kind of riff.

738
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,280
Like you have to, you throw Jim Carrey

739
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,320
or Robin Williams in a movie.

740
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,440
- You gotta let them just be playable then.

741
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,440
- You gotta let them just be down.

742
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,560
- Yeah, and everyone who's worked with him

743
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,320
and a lot of the people who do work with him

744
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:47,920
stick with him for a very long time

745
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,440
because he has such a specific directorial style

746
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,040
and lets artists be artists.

747
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,760
And I think Timberlion, this being his second film,

748
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,600
is so crazy because he's so influential

749
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,840
and really makes Winona Ryder so influential

750
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:03,840
after this moment.

751
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,640
- Johnny Depp, eventually with his career,

752
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,800
Edward Scissorhans.

753
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,000
- Yes, that's Timberlion.

754
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:09,840
- It's after.

755
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,120
- Yeah, and Winona again, Helen a bottom-carter

756
00:25:13,120 --> 00:25:14,880
who is his wife and I think.

757
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,680
- Wife and Muse, yeah.

758
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,360
- I think probably on good terms from what I've seen.

759
00:25:19,360 --> 00:25:20,520
- I think so, yeah.

760
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,720
Now he has a new muse which people are questioning.

761
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,960
But I think it's just people just love.

762
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,800
- Helen a bottom-carter and like knowns

763
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,200
we're gonna compete with her, she's so unique and like.

764
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,480
- Yeah, the word muse just reminds me of back in the day.

765
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,320
I'm his muse, I'm Cajem.

766
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,320
- I'm Cajem.

767
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,160
- I'm Cajem.

768
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,000
- I'm Cajem.

769
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:40,160
- You know, I was, yeah.

770
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,800
- I wanna be someone's muse.

771
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,680
- You know, Beetlejuice ultimately was a movie

772
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,320
with a $15 million budget that actually

773
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:52,560
ended up grossing a $75 million box office.

774
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:53,400
- Yeah.

775
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:54,480
- And I wanted to Oscar.

776
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:55,480
- I did for Best Makeup.

777
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:56,320
- I realized that.

778
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,320
- For Best Makeup.

779
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:58,520
- Yeah, the makeup is incredible.

780
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,680
And I mean, it's really good in the sequel as well.

781
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,880
Just again, the practical effects.

782
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,240
Like you can tell that Michael Keaton is just,

783
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,280
there's no CGI on him unless silly things are happening.

784
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,320
- Yeah, but it's like I'm popping out.

785
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,760
It's head spins around, but otherwise he's just

786
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,640
makeup and a wig and looks crazy, so.

787
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,760
- Yeah, and ultimately the first Beetlejuice,

788
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:19,680
there's a TV show.

789
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,240
I don't know if you knew that.

790
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:22,640
- I never watched it.

791
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,920
- Okay, so it's funny.

792
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,680
I had never seen the Beetlejuice movie as a kid,

793
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,160
but I watched the cart too.

794
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,000
- Okay.

795
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,280
- And that wasn't too scary for me.

796
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,080
- Yeah, 'cause it was Lydia and Beetlejuice like solving.

797
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,760
- They're under a world of crimes.

798
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:36,920
- And they're buds.

799
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,240
They're kind of more like the same age and they're,

800
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,640
I don't know, like Beetlejuice is a dead man,

801
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,040
but they make them like best friends.

802
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,940
Like she summons Beetlejuice in her bedroom

803
00:26:46,940 --> 00:26:49,480
just to hang out with them and yeah, solve crimes.

804
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,240
And she's cute little Goth girl and she opens her

805
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,000
in boutique at one point, which is like my favorite episode.

806
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,600
And Beetlejuice, it's like,

807
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,280
failing 'cause it's a Goth boutique.

808
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:00,120
- Yeah.

809
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:01,520
- It's so heat.

810
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,440
Somehow hypnotizes the town folk,

811
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,880
to all go by her and become a girl.

812
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,120
Shop till you shriek at Lydia's boutique.

813
00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:10,640
And they all, like zombies, look at their,

814
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:11,720
it's pretty cute.

815
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:12,560
- That's amazing.

816
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:13,400
- Yeah.

817
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,680
- Well, ultimately, you know,

818
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,240
the first Beetlejuice cannot be beat,

819
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,880
but we're here to talk about how the sequel

820
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,160
pairs up to the average.

821
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,000
- Yes.

822
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,120
- I think it pairs very well,

823
00:27:24,120 --> 00:27:27,000
but we will take a little break and then talk about

824
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,040
our thoughts on Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.

825
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,800
(dramatic music)

826
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:37,000
- So Tim Burton said he wouldn't make a sequel

827
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,120
unless Michael Keaton reprised his role as Beetlejuice

828
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:41,920
and that came true.

829
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,160
When owner Riders started working on stranger things

830
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,120
and she warned the Duffer Brothers,

831
00:27:46,120 --> 00:27:48,560
if there's ever a chance to do a sequel to Beetlejuice,

832
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,920
you have to give me the time off for it.

833
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,840
'Cause this movie was teased for years.

834
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,240
There were so many fake posters on Facebook

835
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,640
of fan-made art where everyone would go,

836
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,520
"Oh my God, is it finally happening?"

837
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,600
No, not yet, not yet.

838
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,400
That it almost felt like a joke when it was finally.

839
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,200
- Yes, we were all like, are you serious?

840
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,640
No, no, that's fake.

841
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,080
It's actually a real original sequel

842
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,840
that was supposed to be happening

843
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,720
was Beetlejuice goes to Hawaii.

844
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:19,560
- No!

845
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,360
- Yes, yes, yes.

846
00:28:21,360 --> 00:28:22,960
- It's like Brady Bunch.

847
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:23,800
- Yeah, right.

848
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,960
- Where the Death family decides to open

849
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,600
A Bunch of Properties in Hawaii

850
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,720
and really go colonized like they love to.

851
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:37,000
- Isn't that the plot of the sequel to "We Can Do It"

852
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,000
"Bernies?"

853
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,160
I think they go to Hawaii.

854
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,400
- I don't know, maybe.

855
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:41,720
- Like, that's just a sequel.

856
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:42,480
- They said we know we're being a plotter.

857
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,200
- Yeah, and so ultimately that failed, which thank God.

858
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,440
- Thank God.

859
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,760
- And so I watched a lot of interviews

860
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,840
and a lot of press that these actors were doing.

861
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,600
Both the new cast and the older cast

862
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,800
and their biggest thing was leave it alone.

863
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,160
If you don't have something good,

864
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,280
like we really do not want to reprise this.

865
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,320
And we want to leave it as a standalone

866
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,080
and they had a history of saying that

867
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:08,800
where we're not going to just make a Beetlejuice

868
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:09,640
to make up for this.

869
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:10,480
- Just Beetlejuice.

870
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,520
- We want it to be really, really good.

871
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,360
And once Tim Burton met Jenner Antega,

872
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,960
he really like found that, you know, inspiration.

873
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:21,960
- She's so perfect.

874
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,080
So he thought he was done with movies,

875
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,680
but he directed four episodes of Wednesday,

876
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,120
which you can see his influence in so much.

877
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:29,960
- Yeah.

878
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,720
- Especially with that the main monster bad guy.

879
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:33,560
- Yeah.

880
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,400
- Like is a Tim Burton character.

881
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:36,240
- Yep.

882
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,360
- But yeah, like you said, he met Jenner Antega,

883
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,040
convinced him to reassess the potential

884
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,760
for the Beetlejuice sequel,

885
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,520
and she ended up playing Lydia's daughter Astrid.

886
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,480
Okay, so we're gonna get into some spoiler territory here.

887
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,000
- So spoilers, pause.

888
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,840
- We will see you after you see it.

889
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:50,680
- I'm back.

890
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,720
- I'll tell no thanks for joining us.

891
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:53,560
Okay, bye.

892
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:54,400
- Yeah, we love you.

893
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,640
- Anyway, spoiler time.

894
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,560
I loved this movie.

895
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:58,480
- I did as well.

896
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,400
I thought it was really, really well done.

897
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,240
I thought that they did fan fodder,

898
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,400
but not in such a way where it took away from the story.

899
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:07,240
- Exactly.

900
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:08,800
- There wasn't so much Easter egg

901
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,440
that the whole time you're like, oh yeah.

902
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:11,280
- Oh yeah.

903
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,120
- Call back, call back, call back.

904
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:12,960
- Yeah, call back.

905
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,560
- Cause those kind of sequels are just money grabs,

906
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,240
and just there's no story to tell.

907
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:19,080
- Yep.

908
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,320
- The zoo lander's sequel, right?

909
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:22,160
- Yes.

910
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,000
- I don't even remember that.

911
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:23,840
- Exactly.

912
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:24,680
- Cause they're a fierce watcher.

913
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:25,520
- Yeah.

914
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,200
- And the anchor man's sequel.

915
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,040
- Yeah.

916
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,600
- There's nothing new to cover.

917
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:30,440
- Yeah.

918
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,640
- This felt new, like they had the old cast

919
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:35,800
surprising their roles.

920
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,520
Catherine O'Hara, Michael Keaton,

921
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,240
Winona Ryder is back.

922
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,080
- Mm-hmm.

923
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:46,280
- The Gina Davis and Alec Baldwin are not back.

924
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:47,640
- Because Ghost Can't Eat.

925
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:48,600
- Because Ghost Can Eat,

926
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:49,560
which is a good point,

927
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,040
but also Alec Baldwin can't get work right now.

928
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:52,880
- Yeah.

929
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:53,920
- And they had some weird,

930
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,760
- Very insurable at this moment.

931
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:56,960
- Yeah, really.

932
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,320
- There's too many guns in fall,

933
00:30:58,320 --> 00:30:59,400
to the set of Beetlejuice.

934
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:00,400
- It's not how they're not.

935
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:01,240
- No, it's not how they're not.

936
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,160
They did have a weird kind of explanation in this movie

937
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,840
for why they're not haunting the house.

938
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,280
Anymore, and Lydia and a throwaway line goes,

939
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:09,280
- We found a loophole.

940
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,120
- We found a loophole,

941
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,200
and they rolled a crossover,

942
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:12,360
and it was just like done.

943
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:13,200
- I don't know.

944
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,040
- I was like, I wanted a little more

945
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,680
of the like, give this something.

946
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,240
- Give me like some lore,

947
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,880
some building of your universe.

948
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,880
- Because they can just like,

949
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:23,720
they're the cost of it.

950
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:24,560
- Yeah.

951
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,280
- Because they did establish in this movie,

952
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:27,280
like we talked about earlier,

953
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,480
that there are different levels to the afterlife.

954
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,880
So you go to this purgatory waiting room,

955
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,920
and then you get your passport or your ticket stamped,

956
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,280
and then you go on the soul train,

957
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:38,800
which you're actually up every time.

958
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:39,640
- Yeah.

959
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:40,480
- It's literally like,

960
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,960
"I'll vote the soul train to sell this."

961
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:43,800
- It is.

962
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,280
- Yeah, to the great beyond.

963
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,520
- And you either go to the great beyond,

964
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:47,760
but then the other one said,

965
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:48,960
"The Fields of Elysium,"

966
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,000
which is what that priest was talking about earlier,

967
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:51,840
which is funny.

968
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,240
And then,

969
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,720
you would have cracked up at that part.

970
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,720
- There's this like creepy priest in it,

971
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,160
because so basically the reason for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

972
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,960
is the Deets father dies.

973
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,080
Can you remember his name?

974
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:06,920
It's not that important.

975
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:07,760
- Charles?

976
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,200
- Yeah, Charles Deets dies.

977
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,040
- Yeah.

978
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,480
- So they're all going back to Barry-Hem

979
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,040
within the Connecticut home,

980
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,640
where everything is happening.

981
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:17,480
- Yes.

982
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:18,320
- And so--

983
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:19,520
- The actor who played Charles, Jeffrey Jones,

984
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,600
was not invited back for this movie.

985
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,320
- He has some troubles.

986
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:24,880
- He's got some legal troubles.

987
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,200
- And we'll leave it at that.

988
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:31,200
- And so they made him die of very gruesome death.

989
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,080
- Where it's like half his body.

990
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,200
- He's essentially headless in die of movie,

991
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,280
but the practical effect is so gruesome.

992
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:39,320
We're just blood-assorted.

993
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:40,800
- And he goes to that old,

994
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:41,880
as every time he talks, like,

995
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,000
"Well, and then the scene that shows how he died

996
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,440
is Clay Nation like stop motion, which was really cute."

997
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:48,280
- Yeah.

998
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,520
- I do have to say though, Clay Nation gives me

999
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,760
uncanny valley, and it makes me really,

1000
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,680
really, really, really uncomfortable.

1001
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,960
- So you unpack that.

1002
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,840
- No, it's like a human programming thing.

1003
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,480
- Well, uncanny valley, yeah.

1004
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:02,320
- Yeah.

1005
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,320
- Clay Nation, you see that?

1006
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,040
- Yeah, it's like we evolve to know

1007
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:07,480
when things don't look that way.

1008
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,440
- I mean, like the polar express movie gets me

1009
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:10,440
on candy valley.

1010
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,040
- That's mean, they're trying so hard to make them look human.

1011
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,440
- Exactly, but they died and they just can't look.

1012
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:16,280
- They don't look right.

1013
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,120
- They don't look right.

1014
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:18,520
- That's why, yeah, exactly.

1015
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:19,440
- I think Clay Nation, I'm like,

1016
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,040
this is so far removed from reality.

1017
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,120
- We could do a whole episode on why I think

1018
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,280
humans developed the ability to--

1019
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:26,800
- Let's do an episode on uncanny valley.

1020
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,120
- Yeah, uncanny valley.

1021
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:28,960
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1022
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,120
(laughing)

1023
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:30,960
Quick, quick, quick.

1024
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,480
(laughing)

1025
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,920
- But, you know, I really, really love this movie.

1026
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,160
Some of the things that I wanted to call back to

1027
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,040
is Lydia's show is called Ghost House.

1028
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:41,880
- Yeah.

1029
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:43,720
- Which as I said in the beginning was what--

1030
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:44,880
- The house of the ghost.

1031
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,440
- Yeah, what the studio wanted to call

1032
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,320
"Beetle Juice" in the beginning.

1033
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,680
So they had some kind of funny, like,

1034
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:52,520
- Yeah.

1035
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,520
- Call that, it's like, if you know you know the deep history

1036
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,040
of like "Beetle Juice" - That's cute.

1037
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,120
- That you can start to see it.

1038
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,640
- My known as Lydia was amazing in this movie.

1039
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,120
She has like the same nuances as Lydia,

1040
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,400
but she's not as depressed.

1041
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:06,600
I mean, she's definitely going through

1042
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:11,000
some "Beetle Juice" PTSD anytime she sees Black and White Stripes.

1043
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,640
She's like, oh God, like,

1044
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,800
and we, it's come to find out he's actually kind of like

1045
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,200
stalking her somehow.

1046
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,600
Like, yeah, this guy's got a heart on her.

1047
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:19,600
- I'm from the day I, yeah.

1048
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,080
- At least now she's a grown woman.

1049
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:22,920
- Yes.

1050
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,360
- So it's a little more appropriate,

1051
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,360
but the picture is framed at his desk.

1052
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,520
He's definitely of like a teenage girl.

1053
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:30,760
Just that he's like, - Yeah.

1054
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:31,600
- And a sweetie.

1055
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,200
- He's like, oh yeah, I love this picture.

1056
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,040
- Yeah.

1057
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:38,280
- And so there are a lot of new characters that get introduced.

1058
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,440
At the end of the first "Beetle Juice" movie,

1059
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,040
whenever he's about to try to marry Lydia,

1060
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,920
he pulls like a finger out of his pocket, right?

1061
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,720
And there's a bring on it and he goes,

1062
00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:50,120
sorry, it shouldn't mean much to me.

1063
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:51,080
Don't worry about her.

1064
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:51,920
- I forgot that.

1065
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,920
- And so that finger that he had in his pocket

1066
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,880
ends up being the main villain within this.

1067
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:00,400
- Yeah, she was the main villain,

1068
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,520
but I don't think she was very necessary

1069
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:04,600
to the plot.

1070
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,880
- The movie would have been just as good without her,

1071
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,240
but it's Monica Belucci,

1072
00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:10,360
yeah, she plays "Beetle Juice" his ex-wife.

1073
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,640
The scene that describes kind of how "Beetle Juice"

1074
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,880
died and how she died, hilarious.

1075
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:16,720
- Yeah.

1076
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:18,880
- And he's speaking Spanish for some reason.

1077
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,160
- So we know he started in Spain.

1078
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,400
- Yeah, he speaks Spanish at the end of the movie again too.

1079
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,520
Like, "Beetle Juice" from Spain.

1080
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:28,520
- All right, I'm gonna let go.

1081
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,040
- He's like kind of described as like a timeless being.

1082
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,840
So like, he still don't really know,

1083
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,400
but it was funny, like the traditional ceremony

1084
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,840
where we ate the chickens off of heads

1085
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,760
and sacrificed the chickens off the heads.

1086
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:41,760
- Yeah, there you go.

1087
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,280
And the heads off the chickens.

1088
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,440
And sacrificed to go drink each other's blood.

1089
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,320
- But he's like, "Fuck, what I need you this for my wedding?"

1090
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,160
- Yeah.

1091
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,240
- Blue it on the renewals.

1092
00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:52,080
- Yes, I would tell you.

1093
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:52,920
- There you go.

1094
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:54,320
- It's all gonna be just,

1095
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,520
all the cats got the codes in the air.

1096
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:57,360
- Oh, I don't know.

1097
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:58,200
I love goats.

1098
00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,040
- They're spoken for.

1099
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,040
- They are just pretend.

1100
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:00,880
- Okay.

1101
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:01,720
- Well, you sort of those collapsible knives.

1102
00:36:01,720 --> 00:36:02,560
- Okay, there you go.

1103
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:03,380
- There you go.

1104
00:36:03,380 --> 00:36:04,220
- Britney.

1105
00:36:04,220 --> 00:36:05,060
- Yeah.

1106
00:36:05,060 --> 00:36:06,360
- It's a fake knife.

1107
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:07,360
Honey, no, it's not.

1108
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,000
- We got it from Britney's prop store.

1109
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,000
(laughing)

1110
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,560
- House of Spears.

1111
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,800
- I think that Genoa Ortega was delightful in this video.

1112
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,200
She's different enough from Wednesday.

1113
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,400
I mean, she's still kind of the dark moody burrows,

1114
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:22,240
dead pain.

1115
00:36:22,240 --> 00:36:23,080
- Yeah.

1116
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,440
- I felt so bad for her.

1117
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,440
This reminded me of Wednesday a lot.

1118
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:27,240
- Did you watch Wednesday?

1119
00:36:27,240 --> 00:36:28,240
- Yeah.

1120
00:36:28,240 --> 00:36:31,800
- So in Wednesday, Wednesday goes on her first date

1121
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,360
and he ends up being evil.

1122
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:34,200
- Yeah.

1123
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:35,200
- And then in this one,

1124
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,200
Astrid ends up going on her first date, spoiler,

1125
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,360
he's evil.

1126
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:39,480
- The dead guy too.

1127
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,320
- Yeah.

1128
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,560
- Yeah, and he's dead and he wants to murder Suede.

1129
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:44,400
- His family.

1130
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,240
- Yeah.

1131
00:36:45,240 --> 00:36:46,920
- And he wants to, that shook me.

1132
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:47,760
- Yeah.

1133
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:48,600
- Because I wasn't expecting.

1134
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,760
- No, it was dark.

1135
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:50,600
- Yeah.

1136
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:51,440
- It was good.

1137
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,160
And wants Astrid to come to the Astrid for life

1138
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:55,960
so that he can steal her soul.

1139
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:56,800
- Like trade a life.

1140
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:57,640
- Like trade a life.

1141
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,360
- And go back and be a little shit on Earth again.

1142
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,800
So that leads to Lydia being like,

1143
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,480
oh my God, I can't believe I have to do this,

1144
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,000
but Beatle choose Beatle choose Beatle choose.

1145
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,480
I need his help.

1146
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:09,320
- Yeah.

1147
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,720
- We also have Justin Thoreau who plays Lydia's

1148
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:14,160
manager/boyfriend.

1149
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:15,000
- Boyfriend.

1150
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,400
- He is so greasy and comical.

1151
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:19,240
- So cool.

1152
00:37:19,240 --> 00:37:20,080
- And this movie,

1153
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,080
his little throw-a-line,

1154
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:21,920
where he's like,

1155
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,720
I just was helpfully getting boxes from the store.

1156
00:37:24,720 --> 00:37:25,720
- He's very,

1157
00:37:25,720 --> 00:37:27,800
and weaponizing therapy space.

1158
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:28,640
- Yes.

1159
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:29,800
- You guys we talk about all the time.

1160
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:33,480
But he was really like the way that they costume

1161
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,520
to sign to him and like gave him his hair.

1162
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,000
- His slick back hair.

1163
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,640
- His the creepy dude from Charlie's Angels,

1164
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:42,480
the first one.

1165
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,320
- He was sniffing holes.

1166
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,160
- His hair.

1167
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:45,000
- His hair.

1168
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:45,840
Like that was the inspo,

1169
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,000
that was all they needed.

1170
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:48,920
It was exactly like copy-place that guy.

1171
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:49,840
- He was hilarious.

1172
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,200
He was creepy.

1173
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,040
You could tell no one liked him.

1174
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:53,840
I mean,

1175
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:54,680
- Yeah.

1176
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:55,520
- Catherine O'Harrot is.

1177
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:56,520
- So funny.

1178
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:57,160
- Jenner,

1179
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:58,160
- Our Tegas character hates it all.

1180
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,160
- They all hate him.

1181
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:00,640
- And even Lydia's like,

1182
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,120
- Oh, he loves me.

1183
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:03,120
- He loves me.

1184
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:03,960
- He loves me.

1185
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:04,960
And I kinda need,

1186
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:05,800
and I don't know.

1187
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,160
I've been denying love.

1188
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:11,280
And she got a divorce from Astrid's father who then died,

1189
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,960
which adds a nice layer of Astrid's backstory

1190
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,280
and what she is depressed as she is.

1191
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:18,120
- Yeah.

1192
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,080
- She gets to reunite with her down the afterlife,

1193
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:21,160
which is so sad.

1194
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,000
Oh my God,

1195
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:22,840
he's got a little piranha.

1196
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,360
- Yeah, he's stuck in him.

1197
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,480
- That's a handsome man, no.

1198
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:26,640
I don't know what that was.

1199
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:27,480
He was a handsome man.

1200
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:28,400
- Yeah, he was, yeah, he was very,

1201
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,240
- Yeah.

1202
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:30,240
- Yeah, I really, really liked it.

1203
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:31,240
When I was a writer,

1204
00:38:31,240 --> 00:38:32,720
I kinda talked about how,

1205
00:38:32,720 --> 00:38:35,560
before she had really seen like the full script,

1206
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,200
she'd always kinda seen Lydia as a person

1207
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,720
who would never have a child or never get married

1208
00:38:41,720 --> 00:38:42,760
or never fall in love

1209
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,920
and kinda just be stuck with these ghosts.

1210
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,200
So I thought it was kind of like an interesting compromise

1211
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,960
that they came to to have the husband already be dead

1212
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,520
and Lydia,

1213
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,560
as she says in the first 20 minutes of film,

1214
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,240
sell out and become a touch of host,

1215
00:38:59,240 --> 00:39:02,160
medium and kind of betray them.

1216
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,960
And I wish they had really brought that in more to

1217
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,920
as soon as Adam and Barbara disappeared.

1218
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,840
Like she felt like,

1219
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,800
because they really became her parents

1220
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,400
and they were parental figures and her friends.

1221
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:15,400
Then she's just gone.

1222
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,600
And I wish they had kind of delvened to that part bar.

1223
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:19,840
- They couldn't have done it in Clayton Nation.

1224
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:20,680
- I would have, yeah.

1225
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:21,520
- They could have been in the business.

1226
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:22,640
- And this is them after they were gone

1227
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,400
and then I was never close with,

1228
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:28,240
Delia, her and Delia have gotten closer over the years.

1229
00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:29,560
I think they could have shown this movie.

1230
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,960
They have an understanding of each other,

1231
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,640
like a respect, but they're not exactly close.

1232
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,440
- Yeah, she's like, once I sold out in May and about

1233
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,920
and she's like, "You like me?"

1234
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:39,200
- Yeah, now that I'm loaded,

1235
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,720
you started liking me, that's weird.

1236
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:43,640
Delia is still an artist.

1237
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,520
- Are you in the movies so funny?

1238
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:46,360
- Yeah.

1239
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,880
- The feudal performance of the whole house.

1240
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:49,720
- Yes.

1241
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:50,560
- The performance.

1242
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,280
- I'm very glad she's hilarious.

1243
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,160
- I really, really liked it.

1244
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,360
I think it's one of those sequels,

1245
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,240
but definitely worth a rewatch.

1246
00:39:58,240 --> 00:39:59,080
- Oh yeah.

1247
00:39:59,080 --> 00:39:59,920
- I walked out of it and was like,

1248
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:01,000
"Man, I want to see that again."

1249
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,080
Just sort of like pick up the things that,

1250
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:05,400
you know, I'm just-- - The little minst.

1251
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,720
- Yeah, and normally I'm an avid,

1252
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:10,120
like I do not go see a second movie.

1253
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,560
If I, like I never saw Ingramant too,

1254
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,440
a girl would think it needed it.

1255
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,680
And so normally I'm like an avid,

1256
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,720
I don't go for a stupid sequel,

1257
00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:21,680
but I do really think that this was a great one.

1258
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:25,600
It was with immense respect to the story

1259
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,360
and ultimately it made it still campy and fun

1260
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,440
and throwbacks to the original movie,

1261
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,360
but not in a way where it really overdid it.

1262
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:34,200
- I agree.

1263
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,000
I think it was a good addition to the story

1264
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,120
and of the next step of Lydia's life

1265
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,960
and Delia's life and Beetlejuice looks amazing

1266
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:45,400
and he's so funny.

1267
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,200
In the end, again, we get to see

1268
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,360
Lydia's red wedding dress come back

1269
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,200
because Beetlejuice is still trying to marry her.

1270
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,620
(silence)

1271
00:40:54,620 --> 00:40:58,920
- Shout out to this movie today

1272
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:00,840
and she's looking like a fucking snack

1273
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:04,640
and I am hungover and just like at a hat and just like,

1274
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:05,640
oh god.

1275
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:09,960
She was like, you look like my femme girlfriend.

1276
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:11,880
- Yeah, I think we like a lesbian and a couple

1277
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,640
and I'm like the butch one.

1278
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,080
- Yeah, that looks fun.

1279
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:15,920
- That's fun.

1280
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:16,760
- They're gonna hear for it.

1281
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,720
- You know, I really wanted to bring Belidia

1282
00:41:19,720 --> 00:41:24,720
and so far this movie has as of today grossed 264 million

1283
00:41:24,720 --> 00:41:30,360
globally, nearly 200 million domestically

1284
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,200
and according to the New York Times,

1285
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,280
there was a time during the film's development

1286
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:35,880
when the studio tried to push it

1287
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,520
as a max streaming exclusive.

1288
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,120
- This needed to be in theaters.

1289
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:41,200
- Yeah, come on.

1290
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:42,800
- Yeah, it's worth it.

1291
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:43,800
- It's worth it.

1292
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,440
- I'm happy that they did it in that way.

1293
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,120
- No, I love going to the movies.

1294
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,920
I got the movies probably once a week.

1295
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:51,760
- Yeah.

1296
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:52,760
- I just love it.

1297
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,320
- Yeah, I enjoy movie experience.

1298
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,360
I do like the ability to pause and talk and chill

1299
00:41:58,360 --> 00:41:59,440
and chat. - And chat.

1300
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:00,280
- Yeah.

1301
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,560
- And, you know, do have my own stacks,

1302
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:06,120
but if there's a good movie coming out,

1303
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,120
what, you know, it's worth like putting your money

1304
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,520
in art you care about.

1305
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,120
- It's just like Nicole Kidman says,

1306
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:12,840
glowing pictures,

1307
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,240
glimmering pictures on a silver screen.

1308
00:42:15,240 --> 00:42:17,640
- Heartbreak feels good in a place like this.

1309
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,120
(laughing)

1310
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,360
- And, you know, ultimately, you know,

1311
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,000
before we close this episode out,

1312
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:28,000
do you think we get a third Beetlejuice

1313
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,360
or Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice?

1314
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:31,960
- I don't think so.

1315
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:32,800
- Really?

1316
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:33,640
- I don't think so.

1317
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,800
I think it took so long to make this movie.

1318
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,600
Burton had to drop the budget from $147 million

1319
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,520
to $100 million to get the film even greenlit.

1320
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,360
Keaton writer, O'Hara Ann Ortega,

1321
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:47,560
all had to take pay cuts.

1322
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,560
I mean, they still made a crap ton of money.

1323
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,360
But I think it was just such a long time in the making

1324
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,360
that I'm not sure if they need a third one.

1325
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,800
I mean, there was like some Beetlejuice babies,

1326
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:58,600
these, which were creepy.

1327
00:42:58,600 --> 00:42:59,840
- Yeah, that was so scary.

1328
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,200
- But I think it kind of, I think it ran its course.

1329
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:04,200
That's my opinion.

1330
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,760
I don't, I think if there was a third one at that point,

1331
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,240
it would feel kind of gratuitous.

1332
00:43:09,240 --> 00:43:10,160
- Yeah. - Cash grab.

1333
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:14,160
- Yeah, I could see it with the main villain

1334
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:19,160
coming back and really going after Lydia and those people.

1335
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,120
But yeah, it still has to be really, really well done.

1336
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,160
I don't think Catherine or her or any of them

1337
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:25,360
are gonna come back again.

1338
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:26,200
I don't think so.

1339
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,440
- I think you would still get Winona

1340
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:29,840
just because she's like in love with Tim Burton.

1341
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,600
I'm gonna do anything for him.

1342
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,760
- Michael Keaton's not getting it a younger too.

1343
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,000
I mean, I mean, that Beetlejuice,

1344
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,000
you got makeup covers.

1345
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:37,840
- That make up covers it real well.

1346
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,040
- It's all prosthetics, baby.

1347
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,560
So he didn't have that problem.

1348
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:41,400
- Yeah.

1349
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,320
- I mean, the cast is all aging and as other projects.

1350
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,960
So I think this was like a love letter to fans.

1351
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,880
And I think it needs to be a fan.

1352
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,200
- Yeah, and ultimately I think it was

1353
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,240
for each of the actors, a love letter to their characters.

1354
00:43:55,240 --> 00:43:56,400
- Yeah, yeah.

1355
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,040
- They all talk about them with such reverence

1356
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:00,200
and respect for them.

1357
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,920
And a lot of people have said Tim Burton was

1358
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,680
one of the most influential directors in their careers

1359
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:08,880
and taught them to speak up for themselves

1360
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:10,080
and advocate for a character.

1361
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,120
- Yeah, but he got in a block of fame star recently.

1362
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:14,240
And when one of the writers said,

1363
00:44:14,240 --> 00:44:16,080
you kind of made it feel like it was okay

1364
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,880
to be a weird creepy golf teenager

1365
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,280
because we love me for who I was.

1366
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,320
And yeah, I love that about Tim Burton.

1367
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:25,360
- Yeah. - Bring out the weirdos

1368
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,360
and all of us.

1369
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:27,200
- Yes.

1370
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:28,520
- I wonder what would happen if our listeners

1371
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,200
said our names three times.

1372
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:32,680
- Puckolder, drink a bottle of a candy.

1373
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:33,520
- Yeah.

1374
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:34,360
- No.

1375
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:35,200
- It was an attempt.

1376
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:36,040
- It was an attempt.

- She's gonna have to take a fourth job.

- I need to take a fourth job.

1398
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:35,880
- Oh my God, the minute you said I have three jobs,

1399

my soul dropped out of my ass just a little.

1400
