   We watched "Beetlejuice" at home and then "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" in the cinema.

   The old one is a cult classic, and I Iike the story line and characters, the pacing is great, it can surprise you multiple times if you hadn't already watched it dozens of times, but the humor is light-chuckle level and often unintentionally cringeworthy. It's the best and the worst of the 80s.

   The new one is fun, action-filled, full of love for the original, I love that they retained so many of the original cast and that it makes sense, we laughed and oohed and awwed and cringed at intentionally cringe-worthy moments.

   I'm not even talking about technology, Hollywood has learned so much about writing and directing in the last 36 years. The effects are obviously better, that goes without saying.

      I enjoyed both. Kid suffered the old one and enjoyed the new one, but of course watching the old one contributed to the experience of watching the new one.
