    Well remember the episode of Goodnight Sweetheart where our hero introduces a bemused crowd of people hiding away from the Blitz in a tube station to... I Am the Walrus!

    Think about SHF forum in a world without the Beatles?! What would that be?!

    No SHF would be like that thing you did as a kid, trying to imagine no world, no universe.

    Things start to sour in the third act when he writes Dig It for a boy band named Pubescent Slags. The movie will end when he releases Carnival of Light as all his fans turn on him and his record label sues him for everything he's got. He ends up living alone, caring for an old sweet man named Mal Evans. As the credits roll, you hear his 9 minute version of You Know My Name (look Up The Number).

    Oh, and at the wedding of his best friend in act two, he sings What's the New Mary Jane, and I tell ya, the bride is not amused.

    Being a Danny Boyle movie, the film will start with a monologue which will end with All You Need Is Love, instead of Choose Life. The scene will show Ewan McGregor being chased in the streets by a Tesco employee for stealing some tea.

    Tarantino's film about Paul's gruesome death and replacement in the 60's will end that, trust me. :D

    I initially thought this was a terrible concept, but then I watched the trailer and it looks like great fun. I'm in!

    Yes... this movie COULD'VE been one of those 'quicky' satire's that Futurama used to do of "The Twilight Zone", called, "The Scary Door"!

    I'm a big Beatle fan, but not usually a fan of movies loosely based around them. This however, looks like it is going to be good.

    Saw this on Twitter last night. Interesting concept, though I wonder how many songs would actually sound too dated for the character to make a claim to in modern times.

    Disheartening to think that James Corden, Coldplay and Ed Sheeran are seen as the modern arbiters of what's considered "good music".

    I registered a story about a band from England flying to Miami to play on the Jackie Gleason show in January 1964, disappearing in the Bermuda Triangle and showing up in modern times not knowing they went to the future, just thinking America is way advanced. It was written in 1994 though.

    By the way-I just posted a similar thread-I searched for "Yesterday" at the top and this didn't come up. Maybe the gorts can merge the two.

    Maybe when it appears in theaters in June we'll get a preview of Peter Jackson's "King Paul":hide:

    Sort of reminds me of the movie Peggy Sue Got Married where she tries to teach Charlie "She Loves You" but he wants to change the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs to Ooh, Ooh, Oohs.
