BEETLEJUICE, BEETLEJUICE, BEETLEJUICEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

 Okay so I recently just found out that for every blog post that we post this week (except for the last one) we had to research not only one but TWO media texts within each!! GAH! Luckily, it's not that deep cause I already have a list of stuffs to research but I still should've read a little closer so I could come up with titles that'll fit each post more LMAOOO

I don't wanna change my titles though I think they're pretty boombayastic so uhh Cambridge lads! Tstok! Random viewer! Whoever you are! Here's how the next 3 posts are gonna be layed out! (excluding the very first post that I made for the week duhhhhh) (its the one below this one you should read it :D)

Post 1- Beetlejuice and Dan Da Dan

Post 2- ENA: Dream BBQ and Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World

Post 3- The Amazing Digital Circus and Parasite

Alrighty! Now that we have all that sorted out let's dive straight into today's first media text:

BEETLEJUICE (1988)!

As of present day, I have watched both Beetlejuice's! (except for the new movie that came out in like 2024 I don't have any intention of watching it lolz) I've seen the movie from 1988 and the musical adaptation! :D Twice! The first time was like a year ago in Miami or Fort Lauderdale (i forgor) with my family and the second time was just last week here at my school! Both were INSANELY good, the immersion, the costume design, the characters, the comedy, Beetlejuice himself, oh MAN all of it was AMAZING!! I am going to watch this musical more times than twice that is very for sure! As for the movie, I've only checked it out once with my family after watching the musical out of curiosity :D I don't quite remember that much but I do remember laughing a lot so HECK YEAH LETS GOOO

me cause I'm literally researching my fav pieces of media rn

Now that I look back on both viewings (or uh..thrice viewings?), I decided to choose specifically the movie cause it's freaking awesome and I don't quite remember it as much as the musical, so why not learn some more about i? :D I love learning things that actually appeal to me, so let's do it!!

okay wait brb cambridge i gotta go to lunch bai :DD

Konichiwa Mr/Mrs. Cambridge, Tstok, or random viewer!! I am back for like 10 minutes cause I brought myself some free time in English class! :D Time to talk to you all about Beetlejuice (1988)!

So the plot of this movie is quite literally the same as the musical which is pretty awesome as both versions align with each other pretty well. It revolves around these two lovely people, Adam and Barbara Maitland who recently died in their own home that then a new family moves into. Driven to get their house back from these grimy alive humans, they recruit this creepy old half demon guy called Beetlejuice to scare them all away! The entirety of the film (I have to watch this again), contains a bunch of wacky antics, Lydia almost killing herself, going to literal hell, meeting Mrs. Argentina, and much, much more!
