Fun Fact: the "Beetlejuice" dialog is ME! I didnt want to get nailed on the music so I stripped the sound, stuck in some YR free music that was "close enough" and sound fx, and rerecorded the lines myself. As for the sodas, the Fanta wasn't nearly as bad as Reddit would have one believe (I think most posts there were people who never tried it but wanted to shout "Yankee Candle!" into the Void.) The "Spiced" I had ro go back and watch my review from months back...I didnt find it spiced at all, just mildly berry-candy flavored. I was surprised it was still out there to be found.
