One of my all-time favorite Tim Burton movies is BEETLEJUICE. Actually I can easily say it’s my favorite Burton movie by far. So the thought of a sequel leaves me with some mixed feelings…
Why am I talking about a BEETLEJUICE sequel? Well because Tim Burton is! You see the director recently chatted it up with MTV about a couple of his upcoming projects – DARK SHADOWS and FRANKENWEENIE – but the question just had to be asked: Is it true that you’re considering doing another “Beetlejuice” film?
“Yes. I love that character, and Michael [Keaton] is so great in it. I always think about how great and fun that character was, so I just said to [“Vampire Hunter” writer] Seth [Grahame-Smith], “If you have some idea about it, go for it, and then I’ll look at it freshly.” In the past, I tried some things, but that was way back when. He seemed really excited about it.
I told him to try some stuff, but he hasn’t come back to me yet. Michael was so great in it. I’m sure he’d strangely tap right back into it.”
So there you have it folks! I’d say it sounds like a BEETLEJUICE sequel is more a possibility now then it’s ever been. … How do you guys feel about that? Spit some bullets below with your opinions and be sure to keep it here for more on anything and everything Tim Burton as we hear it.
