The ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ Trailer Is Getting Wild Reactions Thanks To ‘The Juice Is Loose’

The first trailer for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is loose, and fans of the classic 1988 film starring Michael Keaton as the raunchy poltergeist are freaking out on social media. Once again, Tim Burton is back in the director’s seat for the highly anticipated sequel that also brings back original cast members Winona Ryder and Catherine O’Hara. Wednesday star Jenna Ortega is also along for the ride.

While the first trailer doesn’t reveal too much of the plot, it does lampoon the trend of doing slow-motion covers of classic songs. In this case, “Day O” by Harry Belafonte, which was featured prominently in the original film. Burton took the gag even farther by having a literal children’s choir sing the tune in the trailer, and Beetlejuice fans are here for it.

“The Juice is Loose” tagline also prompted some O.J. Simpson jokes, and of course, Lauren Boebert is practically stuck to the character now thanks to her recent hijinks.

You can see some of the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice reactions below:
