Revealing mistake: When Wolf Jackson touches a headstone as he and the police are about to raid the church, you can see the headstone wobble when his hand lightly touches it, revealing it to be made of a soft, perhaps Styrofoam-like material and not a real headstone.
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)
1 revealing mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Tim Burton
Starring: Michael Keaton, Monica Bellucci, Jenna Ortega
Continuity mistake: When Lydia introduces the guests on her show at the start of the movie, the way the woman is holding her dog "Taco" changes between cuts. (The dog goes from facing Lydia to facing away between cuts.) This sort of mistake happens several more times over the scene.
Beetlejuice: The juice is loose!
Trivia: When Delores is reassembling herself, you can see she is missing the ring finger of her left hand. If you recall, Beetlejuice had this same finger adorned with a ring in his pocket when he attempted to marry Lydia in the first film.
Question: Why is Beetlejuice so intent on marrying Lydia? Why not just find someone else?
Answer: If he marries a human, he can leave limbo and become human again. He needs to get away from his wife, who needs him to complete her blood ritual.
If he just wanted to marry a human, any human, he would not have waited for Lydia. He kept a picture of her on his desk.

Answer: Why are most people so intent on marrying someone? He loves Lydia. In the first movie, she was a teenager, and he mostly needed a wedding to get out of his punishment. In the years since, he appears to have developed more respect and appreciation for her. He stopped her wedding to Roy, exposed Roy's fraud, and transformed their almost-wedding into the smaller, "private" ceremony that she really wanted. He doesn't want to "just find someone else" for the same reasons that many people don't.
