Life returns to normal after three consecutive Sunday night throwbacks for the original Star Wars trilogy.

We have a Beatles theme this week: Beetlejuice2 tomorrow, One Hand Clapping on Thursday.

Looking forward to the second one a lot more than the first.

We watched the original Beetlejuice last night to refresh our memories before going to see B2 today.

The original is very 80s. Some of it has not aged well at all (e.g. Beetlejuice trying to upskirt Geena Davies) and there's a surprising amount of swearing and smoking going on.

I rather enjoyed the sequel. It's bonkers Tim Burton fun with a few more plot strands and gory jokes.

Including us there were seven people in a giant cinema. There was one other couple and a mum with two young kids. Girl about 9 or 10, boy of 6 or 7. It might be a 12A but it's definitely not a film for kids.

We saw the original on Throwback last year. Thought it was over-rated when it was first released. Nothing much has changed.

Thanks for the positive review of the sequel, McDL. That's cheered me up about tomorrow.

Philistines! I'm afraid I've always been a Beetlejuice fanboi! Scared to see sequel! :-) G

There are a lot of callbacks (calls back?) to the original. I don't think you *have* to have seen it but it certainly helped

I love Beetlejuice. I feel a double-bill coming on at some point.
