I mean, there IS a LOT of CG going on there.
The difference is, this time there is actual art direction using CG as a tool, and not a budget crutch.

So I guess that the cartoon isn't cannon?
I liked the cartoon a lot more than the film myself. So I am little sad that this follows the first film and not the cartoon series.
Well, there is more content there in the 94 episodes of the cartoon series that seems to have been produced by Burton himself:

I just like this version of Beetlejuice and his relationship with Lydia better than the villainous Beetlejuice in the movie.
I totally get why they would ignore it, but like I said, for me, I would prefer that version of the character.

Maybe the TV Show will get a sequel as well if the movie succeeds?
Wouldn't mind if they leaned into the cartoon version a bit more, honestly.
Like, not saying turn back the clock and stuff, but if Beetlejuice and Lydia wound up friends? Or at least him and her daughter here?

My memory is fuzzy but did movie Lydia ever wear that Spider-Man webs poncho that cartoon Lydia has? Luv that Spider-Man poncho thingy.
You know, I was thinking, Beetlejuice got screwed! The Maitlands called on him and then walked out on the interview. He was even giving them a free taste of what he was capable of with the snake thing when they yanked him back to the model. Then Lydia made an agreement with him, an oral contract, and then backed out as soon as he fulfilled his part.
How's he the villain here? He was just trying to do his job and was getting screwed over at every turn!

Well, if you get the MeTV slate of channels, their new MeTV Toons channel will be airing it when the channel launches next month!
"Slate of channels"? You mean there's already more than one?
...Ah, it seems their parent company also runs Movies! and H&I, along with some others I don't recognize. MeTV is already relegated to a subchannel here, so I wonder if they're going to have enough bandwidth to add another one.

I am pretty sure the answer is no.
So add that to my list. Seeing a throwback to that would be great.
Meh, I hope not. A sequel would pale in comparison to the original since it will end up being toned down to avoid scaring the little kids that will be the target demographic (unless they aim the sequel at adults like Disney has done with X-Men '97).
If like the original, where its produced by Tim Burton, I don't think that would be an issue. But then I never really considered the cartoon scary even as a kid. It was always just a cool gothic fantasy. A lot of the really scary stuff was already toned down when compared to the original movie and played more for comedic effect most the time.
