Ranker source

I reverted this edit, because it fails WP:SPS. The Ranker.com About us states: Ranker lists are built by lots of people who have experience with what they’re ranking — in other words, they're based on the “wisdom of the crowd.” I added an edit summary but it didn't stick, apparently.

Thank you for the explanation. There are other sources. I’ll try to find a better one. Partyclams (talk) 20:53, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cool Stuff in the cast list

I can't get enough of the added details in the Beetlejuice section of the cast list. It really made me pop my eyes out, much like the ghost with the most. JixbyPhillips 20:04, 23 August 2024 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:240:4E80:6480:6D2D:E01A:6618:2E39 (talk) [reply]

about that release date...

"It was theatrically released overseas on September 4, 2024, and in the United States two days later on September 6, 2024,"

I didn't know it's already September 6 in the US. Europe is still stuck in the 4th. --85.253.169.26 (talk) 16:28, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I personally find it pointless to change it for two days. The reader can interpret it well enough. Just my two cents. GSK (talk • edits) 20:32, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Plot synopsis

This plot synopsis is written so poorly lol can’t wait to see it revised into something more digestible as the movie is in theaters longer. 2601:405:4003:CC60:654E:5002:907F:9403 (talk) 09:02, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Came here to say the same thing. It’s very funny how Delores isn’t introduced until later and how it’s revealed very matter of factly that Delia died. Not to mention giving no credit to Lydia for sending Betelgeuse back. And of course everything else lol 2600:1700:7AA0:A850:A571:4CDB:DD9E:B0AF (talk) 03:37, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

spelling of the name

Why was "Betelgeuse" chosen as the spelling "for consistency"? Surely "Beetlejuice" is used more often, and more obviously, given its prominence in the title of both movies, TV shows, and musicals. There are 40 mentions on this page for "Betelgeuse", but 193 for "Beetlejuice". 58.80.201.106 (talk) 08:01, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
