00:34And here we all are.
00:35I didn't do this one.
00:36No, he didn't do this one.
00:38But this movie so has the same spirit as the first one.
00:42It's as if it is a new, it's not a sequel.

01:09Wow.
01:10Beyond talented.
01:11Just really very cool, very playful and loose and collaborative.
01:16Yeah.
01:17She more than fit in.
01:19I think she inspired this movie.
01:20I think Tim working with her on Wednesday really pushed him to do this.
01:24Really.
01:25Wow, that's huge for his knee.
01:26It's true.
01:27What was the first moment like when you saw Michael back in the suit?
01:31Well, when you first see him, he's just talking as himself.
01:34But he's in full hair and makeup.
01:36He's got the mold growing all over his face.
01:38And he's going, hey, do you believe we're here?
01:40We're doing this movie.
01:41Isn't this great?
01:42It's like, do you know what you look like?

01:45It's exciting.
01:46And just finally then, why should people go and see Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice?
01:49Why do you think?
