Beetlejuice Bettlejuice + Tim Burton's Career Retrospective

Excuse the Intermission

What magic happens when the legendary Michael Keaton and fresh talent Jenna Ortega collide in Tim Burton's latest Beetlejuice film? Join us as guest host Erica Crouse helps uncover the layers of this reboot, from the excitement of practical effects to the pitfalls of its overstuffed narrative. Together, we dissect how Keaton's reprisal of the iconic role and Ortega's fresh energy attempt to resuscitate the franchise, even as we critique the film's jumbled storylines and tonal inconsistencies.
Get ready for an all-encompassing journey through Tim Burton's career as we unveil our top 10 Hall of Fame entries, complete with honorable mentions and surprising misses. From the zany "Mars Attacks!" to the heartfelt "Big Fish" and the hauntingly beautiful "Sweeney Todd," we traverse the eclectic landscape of Burton's oeuvre. Concluding with a discussion on why Beetlejuice 2 marks a critical turning point, we reflect on his career highs and lows while speculating on the future gems Burton might create with his regained momentum.
