Lolz I know what you mean, My Oc Scotty is an exaggeration version of everything I hate in a guy. But with Chad, I wanted to ring out his neck, but that doesn’t stop me from being entertained and immerse when reading those Fics and all your other great works at https://archiveofourown.org/users/RT_Fice 😉
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice (2024)
Just some Amaro doodles

After rereading this, This comes off more of an Essay than a rant.
As with any fandom community, being a part of the Beetlejuice fandom can be a wonderful experience. For many fans, like myself, it's a way to connect with others who share their love for the quirky characters, unique humor, and funny catchy songs of the cult classic movie. The Beetlejuice fandom is no exception, with fans of the iconic 1988 film and the more recent Broadway musical(That’s gone now)) coming together to celebrate their love for the quirky and supernatural world of Beetlejuice. However, as with any community, there are also flaws to be found.
The flaws and issues that arise, particularly when it comes to the behavior of younger generations who are new to the fandom. In the case of Beetlejuice, some fans who were introduced to the world through the recent musical adaptation may have a different perspective and approach to the fandom than those who have been fans of the original film for many years.
One issue that has been noted by some long-time fans is the fetishization of the character of Beetlejuice by younger fans. This can involve sexualizing the character and viewing him as a Trans Man for example. Some people would actually claim that’s he can’t be a desirable figure if he’s not one, rather than as the chaotic and mischievous spirit he is meant to be portrayed as. This fetishization can be concerning and uncomfortable for some fans, particularly those who have a deeper appreciation for the character and the world of Beetlejuice beyond just surface-level attraction.
Another issue that can arise in any fandom community is gatekeeping, or the idea that certain fans may try to exclude or invalidate others based on their level of knowledge or experience within the fandom. This can lead to a toxic environment where new fans feel unwelcome or discouraged from participating, which is not conducive to building a positive and inclusive community.
Despite these challenges, there are still many reasons to love being a part of the Beetlejuice fandom. The shared enthusiasm for the unique and imaginative world created by Tim Burton, as well as the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals from all over the world, make the community a vibrant and exciting place to be.
Ultimately, it is important to remember that any fandom community is made up of individuals with their own perspectives and experiences. While it is important to acknowledge and address problematic behavior, it is also important to focus on building a welcoming and inclusive community where all fans can feel valued and appreciated. By working together and respecting each other's opinions and perspectives, the Beetlejuice fandom can continue to thrive for years to come.
But, of course, that’s easier said than done.
I know it’s not Valentine’s Day but I might as well reblog this still.

Beatrice Spoon is a 19-year-old woman who would describe herself as a Romantic Goth and who’s a bit too much into Literature as a whole. Beatrice moves into a small town called Miracle Pinewood, Michigan with her parents in pursuit of fulfilling her music career. When trying to ignore the plain ignorance of the towns people around her, Beatrice will continue to write her music or go out searching for anything that she finds fascinating. She is also known to do gardening and observing insects in her free time.
Beatrice has never felt uncomfortable being called a lonely person. Mainly because she has never had anyone to count or rely on through her childhood to make her feel lonely. So being isolated is what felt more natural to her.
Beatrice is not a violent person and usually keeps her emotions under control when dealing with a lot of stress, but that doesn’t last long until she is pushed way past her limits. Beatrice will try to see the good in everything, and occasionally, everyone too.
No matter how bad things may seem Beatrice will try to work out the situation and try to find a resolution that will benefit everyone in the long term.
Just another artist who’s trying to get her art out there. Mainly Oc stuff but If you'd like to get to know me just hit me up in the DMs. BeetleBabes (That’s me))and NonBeetleBabes are always welcomed!
