One of my friends, a big Beatles fan, just saw that and said it was shit. :(
I want to see it, but I'm nervous. If any of the songs are completely butchered I'll be very upset... Hmmm curiousity will probably win out though.

[Suzie.]

fuck your friends.

this is the BEST movie, you guys.

and i fucking hate The Beatles, too.

[Nattywba]

Ahhhhhhhhh i was gonna make a thread about this just t'other day! :LOL:

I wanna see it too! But no cinemas near me are showing it :mad:

Which means i'll just have to wait for the DVD now.......which will be ages :rolleyes: :(

[lightstarr]

Behind this movie ??...:stunned:

Looks to be that an American girl and a British boy fall in love during the revolution.. haha, I dunno, but its set to The Beatles I thinks...looks good to me.

[That Little Animal]

I am very hesitant to see this one.... I've heard good and bad things, but the trailer looks like it can't be very good.

[Mandy_]

The previews were sooooooooooooo much better than the actual movie.:LOL:

[Wendigo]

I'll just stick to listening to David Bowie's version of the song. It's fun.

[stuffitv3]

I saw it for free so paying for it wasnt an issue I had to worry about. But any how I thought it was quite good and be and my girlfriend were surprised and delighted when we saw that Eddie Izzard was in it. Though to be honest I had no clue what was going on at that point.

Random info alert: Just read an interview with Geoffrey Rush at the Toronto International Fil fest, he said he loved this movie, as well as Eastern Promises by David Cronenberg.

That is all. :$ *runs off*

[brutal]

i finally went out and got it on dvd yesterday. me and my friends have watched it a total of 5 times since then

and we've been listening to the soundtrack for weeks now.... (it is playing now)

me and the roommate are obsessed.

and I want to have Jim Sturgess' babies :$

I second that, and I'm a huge Beatles fan.

I hate movies made with the only excuse of using a soundtrack of famous iconic songs, but with a shitty storyline.
Does Moulin Rouge ring a bell?

[Ullalume]

Well that was a crock of shit...

Pft.

[Miran-duh]

i kinda liked it :(

* gets defensive *

i mean, some of the solo love song stuff was a bit cringey, because i always hate that. but c'mon. across the universe spliced with helter skelter ? that was kinda cool. and the military bit.


iunno, i'm a sucker for good choreography :$

[Ullalume]

I had really high hopes for it..and was just like..wha?!!!!!!

There was just like, no story.

Nevermind, I must've just built it up too much.

I loved it. And the whole "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" sequence was fucking brilliant. And scary.

:stunned: Musicals never do. Just enjoy the pretty colors and good musics.

[ChasingDreams]

I thought it was great :happy: Sure the plotline was all fucked up, but it wasn't supposed to be good :LOL: The whole point was the music. I think my favorite was Strawberry Fields Forever, the colors were so pretty :eek:

INORITE? Though I think my favorite bit is the very opening. Just the way the shot closes in on him, and then he opens his mouth and sings. I was just immediately captivated--and smitten. :happy:
