Beetlejuice Beetlejuice has a fast - pace , funny history carry with twists and turn that keep audiences guessing and laughing until the very end .
Thanks to all that , Beetlejuice Beetlejuicetakes the consultation to the Neitherworld and back to the mankind of the living , revisiting some of the convention and more that the first movie establish .

8Time Dilation Doesn’t Exist In Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Time Works In Much Easier Ways In Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

7The Afterlife Rules For The Recently Deceased Are Even More Unclear In Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
The Maitlands, Jeremy, & Delia Went Through Different Processes
Beetlejuicealso established some of the Neitherworld ’s rules that seemed jolly simple , but the sequel either change them or ignored them , thus creating plot of ground holes . InBeetlejuice , through the Maitlands , it was revealed thatthose who had traumatic deaths were confined to the place where they diedfor many , many old age … except that they died in a river , but were set to spend 125 years in their house , for some reason . However , inBeetlejuice Beetlejuice , Jeremy was circumscribe to his mansion and the tree business firm in his backyardas he killed his parents in the house but died in the tree house .
Tim Burton ’s Beetlejuice delivered a dark clowning which saw Adam and Barbara voyage their hereafter with some help from the Handbook for the dead .
There are also the cases of Delia , Charles , and Richard . Charles died in the ocean after being eat on by a shark , but he made it to the Neitherworld , andDelia should have been confined to the graveyard(or the home , like the Maitlands ) as she died there , yet she was immediately sent to the wait room .

The Maitlands Conveniently Found A Loophole
As note above , according to theHandbook of the Recently Deceasedand the formula of the Neitherworld stated that the Maitlands had to pass the next 125 years in their theater as ghost . It was because of that that they wanted to daunt the Deetzes away , but alternatively , they find a way to coexist in the menage . Because of that , the Maitlands should have appeared inBeetlejuice Beetlejuice , but that would have been tricky as they are n’t imagine to age , so the sequel would have to use the controversial de - senescent tech on Davis and Baldwin .
Beetlejuice let out some of the Neitherworld ’s rules when the Maitlands died , but there ’s one affair that bothers me about the Maitlands ' ghosts .
as luck would have it , Burton encounter a way to justify the Maitlands ’ absence seizure inBeetlejuice Beetlejuice – the job is that it left even more doubt . Lydia explained thatthe Maitlands found a loopholein the clausethat tell they had to stay in their house for 125 years and finally moved on . Even Astrid level out “ how commodious ” this was and the motion-picture show never explain what exactly the loophole was and how long had pass since the Maitlands leave the house .

Delia wake up in the waiting way and summoned Beetlejuice in hope that he could help her takings to the land of the living as , according to her , she should n’t have die . Meanwhile , Charles wandered the Neitherworld as he did n’t cognize where to go .
The sequel did n’t really explain the rules or requirements for disembarrass the Soul Train and going to the Great Beyond .
Beetlejuice Beetlejuiceintroduced the Soul Train that hire the deceased to the Great Beyond – the affair is that the continuation did n’t really explain the rule or necessary for riding the train and going to the Great Beyond . Per the rules established inBeetlejuice , Delia and Charles should have also expend some time in the demesne of the aliveness , but for unexplained reasons , they go now to the Soul Train and the Great Beyond after the wait way .

4The Afterlife Rules About Civil Servants Change In Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

However , this principle seemed to have transfer at some pointbetweenBeetlejuiceand the sequel , asAstrid ’s father was revealed to be work at in-migration in the Neitherworld .

Richard did n’t die by suicide – Astrid explained he was on a tripper to crusade for climate Justice Department and had a boat stroke in the Amazon , but the authorities never found his organic structure . Richard even had a couple of Pisces tie to different parts of his body , as the beat keep the appearance they had when they died . Richard , then , should n’t be a civic servant , unless now the deceased can get any job they can in the Neitherworld , which would also excuse Beetlejuice ’s job at a call center .
