Keaton said in March 2014 that this was the only sequel he was interested in
Line of Events
After a family tragedy, three generations of the Dietz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by the Beatles, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her teenage daughter Astrid accidentally opens a portal to the afterlife. Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Kathryn O’Hara, Justin Theroux and Monica Bellucci share why filming Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice was an experience they’ll never forget. Tim Burton said he would only make this movie if Michael Keaton came back to reprise his role. The film makes references to a “French physicist”; Maria Sklodowska-Curie; she is actually one of the most famous Polish scientists in history, often considered second only to Copernicus.
The special effects were amazing
Beetle Juice: I think Dostoyevsky said… Later, damn… SPOILER: The end credits have a tribute to Bob, Skinner, who died in the movie. Late Night with Seth Meyers: Michael Keaton/Connor O’Malley (2024).

It’s really unfortunate
The acting was good. But there were so many stories. And none of them had enough time to fully develop. Either story could have been the focus of the entire film. Every story was rushed and ended so quickly.
It added nothing to the film
And they focused too much on Lydia’s father. Honestly, they didn’t even have to deal with the fact that he wasn’t in the movie. The real-life actor is a sex offender, so why discuss his character? There are also a lot of ghosts from part 1, which I think should have been in this sequel – just use makeup and special effects like they did in Beetlejuice. Or reformulate them if you don’t want them to look dated.
It was boring
I almost passed out in the first hour as well. The movie started only in the second hour.
