Have you seen The Birth of the Beatles?? it's awful & the way it's
made is really shabby!   I find the movie so hilarious, it's that bad.
and the guy who plays Brian Epstein reminds me of Tony Blair!

There are no good movies based on the Beatles. They need to make a trilogy. The early years, Beatlemania, and the break up years. Like Star Wars!!!

This is a great idea! I'd see it.

Just don't let Lucas make it. Paul will turn out to be Yoko's brother.

It's a tie between Hard Days Night & Help for me!
Even though my fav fabs movie is Help, i would choose
Hard Days Night as they were all quite tight performances with
Spinetti, Brambell, Junkin & Rossinghton.

Many years ago I saw this movie on TV about the post-Beatle years (can't remember the name of the thing) w/ some unknown actor playing John Lennon (by then living at the Dakota) and AIDAN QUINN (of all ppl) playing Paul McCartney... does anyone remember this one? I dont recall it being that good, I know I sure wouldn't buy it.

Yes, it was called Two of Us, not bad as they go. Backbeat really was the best movie made about the boys. You'd think a fairly decent movie about the most popular band in the world could be made, wouldn't you? Why can they not get it right?!

Ewww, that movie creeped me out. Plus why were the other Stones only in it for like two seconds. I think they had a little more to do with his life than that! I guess it was mainly about the guy who confessed to killing him though. Ick anyway.
