My bad! I’m tired and thought you were mentioning Astrid’s ghost boy!Eaten by a Sandworm!
I also liked him a lot! He got plenty of laughs from me, and also had a terrible fate. He’s lame on purpose

On paper, yes, you could easily remove her without affecting much (then you're probably losing Willem Dafoe, too).Her plot line is something they could have cut from the movie completely and honestly it would have made the movie better. She really didn’t add anything and was often on her own away from the main cast anyway.
technically you could have removed her from the matrix movies too but why would you lolOn paper, yes, you could easily remove her without affecting much (then you're probably losing Willem Dafoe, too).
On the other hand, no movie is improved by less Monica Bellucci. I wish the movie gave her a little more to do in terms of interacting with the primary cast.
I take that back..... I take it back.... she did not need to be in this at all. there was another character that could have taken her plottechnically you could have removed her from the matrix movies too but why would you lol
yeah the ending is truly really terrible. it was awful, it's really is bad.Having just seen it last night, I think the last 15 minutes is where it crumbles under the weight of juggling the multiple plots.
The film is building up his ex-wife all the way until the end, and then she gets taken out rather pathetically easily. And it features another wedding between the same two characters as the first film which also ends with a sandworm crashing onto the scene. Followed up by a deus ex machina loophole to resolve everything.
I still liked the film, and would recommend it, especially to those who loved the first. But yeah, that ending is where it really falls apart…
Then every movie is good if you just turned your brain offClearly a few of you have forgotten to just turn your brain off and "enjoy". It isn't that deep.
Just remember, the original sequel was "Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian".. be thankful.
I understand the complaint but I feel like you're taking the ending to Beetlejuice Beetlejuice a little too seriously.
It's a long awaited sequel to a completely inane, over the top ride through the afterlife with bizarre characters, I'm fine with it not having some great, tense, climactic ending when everything up to it is such candy for the eyes.
I think its funny we let TIm someone who knows how to make a film a pass on the ending because its fun
I feel like this film is perfect for film students to see why its best to make a ending before filming. Literally two characters in this film don't do anything to the plot, there for they don't need to be there its film making 101.
Also even the start of the film makes no sense, so Beetlejuice can make people see him....but waits 30 years to do this? Would have made way more sense if his Ex wife came back forcing Beetlejuice to make a deal or use dark magic to try to come back.....also without the convenience of the daughter making a deal with the dead guy....Beetlejuice would have zero power, nothing to force her to marry him.
Cool if people like it but the story is a mess and not well thought out
that's kind of advice to enjoy borderlands lol. borderlands wasn't even that bad if you just don't pay attention to plot. borderlands wasn't that bad visually. ( borderlands also had a terrible ending.Clearly a few of you have forgotten to just turn your brain off and "enjoy". It isn't that deep.

When so much of the film is crafted so superbly, from the characters to the actors to the scenery to the music to the atmosphere to the laughs to the scares to the gross outs to the heart turners to the overall bonkers nature, I'm not that perturbed by the story being sightly overstuffed and the ending being just fine (I don't even think it's that bad, it highlights every character and gives them a fun or memorable send off, about what I'd expect from a Beetlejuice sequel tbh).
There were so, so, soooo many ways this could have been such a supremely awful mess of a long waited, much anticipated IP sequel to Beetlejuice that what we did get being as genuine and just outright REAL as it is, especially in the modern landscape of Hollywood and film is nothing short of a wonder.
You don't have to agree with me entirely, if you didn't like the ending or hell even the entire film that's perfectly fine. I'm just presenting my enjoyment and reasons why, not trying to prove something as reputable fact.
Movies are subjective and that's one of the things that make them great!
