Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024): Phone Popups Clip

So I uuhhh seen a post about this scene (will reblog) that looked like it could use some HD footage for, uhm, RESEARCH.

HERE'S THE GIFs OF IT AS WELL:

AND A COUPLE SCREENIES TOO WHY NOT:

[hawkp]

the idea of this text post and audio combined with this scene has been plaguing me all day

[betelgeusesgrave]

From "It's a Wonderful Afterlife", season 4 episode 28. Without Betelgeuse Lydia would have never learned to make friends or connect with others. Because no one in Peaceful Pines would have understood how strange and usual she is. It's imperative for this to be understood--to Lydia, who was alone and misunderstood by everyone around her, Betelgeuse brings joy. He's just as weird, gross, and strange as she is. He shows her things that she likes, takes her to places she could only have thought existed in her imagination. The residents of the Neither World are her friends, the first ones she has besides Beej that help her learn to express herself and talk to the regular-degular breathers that exist around her. This isn't to put Beej on a pedestal. He's not the centre focus here. What is the centre focus here are Lydia's emotions, and how her life could be so vastly different from what it is if she hadn't ever met him. He's not a villain, so much as he's an antagonist in the first film. The Maitlands' are your main characters. They summon him to do a job that he does. Otho is the real villain in the first film along with the Deetz' matrimony and their guests. He's the antihero in the second film because Lydia summons him for help. His quid-pro-quo wouldn't matter in the end, because Lydia needs his assistance to get her daughter back and he also does that and takes care of the little shit that tried to switch places with Astrid. She trusts him, even if you think she doesn't. She moves towards him in the chapel when Rory's plans are revealed. In the animated series, he helps Lydia be more out there with her weirdness, and t helps her. He's her guide if you want to call him that. But in the end, Lydia Deetz was always supposed to meet and talk to Betelgeuse. That's it. That's the end of my ramble.

'wow beetlebabes shippers have NO media literacy didn't they see how TRAUMATIZED Lydia was by her past with Beetlejuice????!? she's literally TERRIFIED OF HIm omg yall are SO DUMB'

I mean...she literally summoned him again to get his help and then brought up marriage within 10 secs of doing that and, at worst, just seemed mildly annoyed by the idea/him. See, I think if you actually have unbiased media literacy, you can recognize that Lydia's issues don't stem from Beetlejuice specifically, she isn't inherently frightened of him (and to suggest so is to completely misunderstand and infantilize her character imo, she never was frightened of him give me a fucking break lol) so much as she is by the reminder of her inherent connection to the afterlife, which ironically she's trying to fight against despite having a successful show about it. Like, again yall, it's fine if you don't like the pairing. It's fine if it grosses you out. What is wholly unnecessary is the suggestion that people who do like it are somehow media illiterate or just 'not as smart as you' or just not getting some elusive concept that only super intelligent moral people can for not also thinking it's gross. You aren't smarter, you just have a different preference for interpreting and enjoying the story. There was a time more people understood that concept.

And not for nothing, but despite your HIGH INTELLIGENCE some of yall still don't know how to tag your anti posts so they don't show up in the shipping tag- though I kind of suspect that's on purpose to try to start shit where there doesn't need to be any, but still, show me how so much smarter you are than me by censoring beetlebabes in a hater post just once challenge (level: impossible)

boba day (lydia deetz)

hi tumblr!! went and got boba yesterday and it was super good and it inspired me to doodle this polaroid-style type piece :D hope you like it! i plan to post an extended doodle of more beeJ characters and their boba orders. i imagine lydia getting coffee milk tea boba … would beg for less sugar. she’s just quirky like that. also i’m totally going off the menu of the boba place where i’m at, so!!

beeJ totally took this picture and lydia has mixed feelings about it.

"i don't think this is how babysitting works, kid."

piggy backing on the "astrid doesnt really exist but she's the closest beej and lyds get to having an actual kid" except she is, quite literally, their kid. thats it that's the au. that burp? that's his crotch goblin you can argue with the wall. he loves his girls 🖤

Would ya'll look at this? Look how pretty and amazing it is! I commissioned my friend Elorium to illustrate a scene from my fic "Step Through the Mirror" and she did a freaking fantastic job.

Check out more of her stuff at https://www.tumblr.com/greatgaspiads/706303150505820160

And here's a link to the chapter this is illustrated for!
