It wasn't that "they" didn't "let" the Beatles use their own voices. "They" would've given their eye-teeth for real Beatle voices.

It was the Beatles themselves that didn't want anything to do with the film. It was a "contractual obligation" thing. Later, when they saw what a quality job the animators had done, the Fabs agreed to do the film sequence at the end, and be more visibly associated with the film.

[/quote]

I always heard that they were just too busy and travelling too much to actually do the voices. Ria's response makes the most sense and i'm sure its right, but its just another little tid bit that I should have known and didnt.

Yeah, The Beatles had a 4 film contract with United Artists and somehow Yellow Submarine meant they only had to make one more film... Let It Be!

I voted Help! it's very funny and A Hard Days Night is good but it's kind of cheesy.

I never knew it wasn't them doing their voices until a few years ago! Shows how stupid I am!! Needless to say, I was very dissapointed!

That was an extremely hard pick between Help! and a Hard Day's Night, I picked AHDN though because I can't help but laugh no matter how many times I've seen it.

A Hard Day's Night
Yellow Submarine
Magical Mystery Tour

Help!

Help! is really popular with some people I've met....I don't really understand it's appeal....it has some decent music videos, but the humor and the band's effort is a big letdown when compared to AHDN.

I think Help! is funnier than AHDN for some reason. It's just so stupid it's funny. I love AHDN too, but it takes itself a bit more seriously. Help! is like one of those great campy movies. But I think the one I've seen most is Yellow Submarine. That has to be the best non-Beatle involved movie. I love it. Magical Mystery Tour is horrible. They're barely in it! Hey, why isn't Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band on the list! Bah Hah!! Just kidding. Aerosmith did a cool version of Come Together though.

I remember Alice Cooper in the Pepper movie too. Didn't he do Because the World is Round it Turns Me On? Or whatever that song is. Does anyone remember who else was in the movie? Come on, admit it, you saw it too!

yeah, I forgot about Billy Preston. I can't remember what he sang though. Maybe I am the only one who saw it!! That's part of my Beatle obsession. If a movie has the slightest thing to do with them I have to see it! I'm even ready to watch Cheaper by the Dozen because it has a cover of Help! in it that I'm curious to hear.

Help! is a great movie, everyone has seen a hard day's night...or not. I saw ahdn first, then I saw Help!. AHDN captures the spirit of the 60's, but Help! is funnier. AHDN was a movie with 'in-jokes' (if you know what I mean). I really didn't understand the scene where John says this 'She looks more like him than I do'.

I've never actually seen it (honest!), but I think Peter Frampton was in it too.
