But the movie's title is "Beetlejuice," that's all I'm saying. Nice pic. I love Michael Keaton. :) First time I saw that movie it was halfway over and I actually asked someone "Isn't Michael Keaton supposed to be in this movie?" and they looked at me like I was dumb. (Which I kinda was.)

"Here lies Betelgeuse" is on his tombstone. In the movie, when Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis first meet him they get his business card and don't know how to pronounce his name.

Hmm. Well, I know there's a star called Betelgeuse, and I know that "beetlejuice" comes from it, but I wouldn't quite put it that the movie and the cartoon character are spelling it wrong. The movie's title and the title character's name are quite properly spelled "Beetlejuice." Maybe a corruption rather than a misspelling.

BETELGEUSE is the correct spelling for the movie and cartoon character, Beetlejuice.
