‘Beetlejuice 2’ Gets New Life with New Writer (http://collider.com/beetlejuice-2-update-new-writer/#images)

Interesting that Burton said "It's gotta be right"-- which is what he kept saying during development of D'S. And they brought on Seth. Maybe this time they'll go the really ironic route and bring in John August! (Though I doubt this would be his kind of project...) Speaking of August, I keep hoping that one of these days his original D'S screenplay will fall into my hands...

From what we learned before and during production of the Depp/DS film, supposedly the story in August's script is the same. The difference is that Grahame-Smith punched up the humor, much of which was already there. But I definitely agree that it would be interesting to see how different/how similar both scripts are to each other. And part of me is actually surprised that both haven't shown up on the Internet. At least not that we know of...
