People, I am so excited! This movie has the potential to be my generation's Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (not the Beatles album, the movie based on that album which starred The Bee Gees, Peter Frampton and Alice Cooper).

Yes! It wouild be hilarious!

God.. Christopher Walken as Ozzy... imagine the comedic possibilities!

I happened to watch Things To Do In Denver When You Die for my bi-monthly dose of Walken, and I'm going around thinking, "You've been hangin' out with the virus breeders, Jimmy, VB's. You in that yet? Biting the pillow? Don't worry you will be. One day you're saving the rain forest, the next, you're chuggin' cock." in my head all day.

If there's ever a movie with both Walken and Shatner together, my head will explode from the combined awesomeness.

I wasn't referring to Walken, or anything about this movie.

I meant

Is calling any "the Sgt. Pepper (BeeGees version) of its time" a comliment?

I guess it is, if you consider the fact that GKE is actually laughing about its comic potential.

The Beatles movies and the Elvis movies were pretty bad, for the most part. Although Yellow Submarine has a fond place in my heart.

But hyp, we're not talking about a Beatles movie (those tend to be kinda fun n their own way. We're talking about this disco era movie of Beatles covers.

God, I'd managed to miss that one, somehow.

Hmmm.

It's a compliment if you consider the statement "Plan 9 From Outer Space is one of the funniest movies of all time."

Dig?

The Beatles movies ... were pretty bad,

A Hard Day's Night, their first movie, directed by Richard Lester, is recognized as a ground-breaking, innovative movie. Lester also directed their second film, Help. I actually enjoy Help a lot more than A Hard Day's Night, but it doesn't have the critical acclaim of the first film. Help also stars Leo McKern, and Emily Bron, both fine actors. It is a spy spoof.
