#john mccartney

I swear whatever these two had I cannot stop thinking about it

you're hearing a bunch of sick ass music

the fandom is alive and kicking and doing so quite well

they're from a recent enough history that you can keep learning new crazy shit about them directly from the source

you have good taste and this is a proven fact

feeling insane is entierly normal

there's an endless plethora of drama you can enjoy while being far far away from it

they made just like. so much music. together and seperatly.

cons of getting really into the beatles

there's a gapin chasm that can never be filled. i an grieving something that can never be changed and that was never for the public to grieve. i weep at night thinking about the ever changing tides of time, the ever moving present drifting further and further from fixed pains in the past. these are things i can never live through and yet the sheer humanity of them envelops me, consumes me. it bring me nothing, my hurt, it gives no greater meaning to the world and yet i Ache

Some Lady: “I’ve got one. *puts on high heels* Yes, he can talk.” Is she…a dominatrix or something? George looks very uncomfortable.

I think maybe this scene is some sort of commentary on the fashion industry…?

Okay, I’m just going to come out and say it: This movie is boring, and I can’t wait for it to be over. If that makes me an uncultured swine, so be it.

Norm: “Stop being taller than me.” Okay, that was funny, and so was Paul’s grandfather popping up on stage.

But still, these are small moments of funny in what’s overall a boring movie. Maybe it’s because it’s black and white. It’s probably because there’s no professional, human-made captioning on this YouTube video. I don’t process information very well if it’s just through my hearing. I always have the captioning on, even if it’s American English from the 21st century.

Paul: “I give her all my love” George: *hugs his guitar*

I’m starting to think the musical numbers are the most entertaining scenes here.

God, he looks so beautiful when he’s singing. Or lip synching.

Is this—“I’m Happy Just to Dance with You”—slowed down?

I love looking at the Beatles’ mouths. At their lips and teeth. Especially when they smile. Such lovely smiles.

There are beetles on the back wall. Clever. (Not.)

Oh, I definitely don’t like Mr. “John McCartney.” If someone yanked a book out of my hands like he just did Ringo’s, I might murder him.

Don’t worry, I wouldn’t actually murder him. But I would probably give him a very angry look.

AND HE’S BASHING BOOKS NOW I HATE HIM

NO, RINGO, DON’T LISTEN TO HIM!

According to Wikipedia, the book Ringo’s reading is called Anatomy of a Murder, which takes place in Upper Peninsula Michigan, where my family is from (both mom’s and dad’s sides)! It’s a small world, isn’t it?

I envy that actress. She gets to put a hand over Paul’s mouth. (I may have a problem.)

Ringo looks cute in his disguise.

Is this the scene where Ringo was drunk or hungover IRL? I never would have guessed.

His conversation with the kid is cute. “I’m 11.” “I bet you’re 10 and a half.” “10 and 2/3.” Pfft.

Later, Ringo struggles greatly to eat a sandwich.

Then he smashes a wine glass…by accident, I mean.

So I thought this was supposed to establish the four Beatles with their “one” personalities, and Ringo was the “lucky one.” How is he the “lucky one”? He seems more unlucky. On the other hand, this kind of explains his characterization in the cartoon…I think.

“Oh my God. All the Beatles are dumb as hell. Where is Ringo? Do the four of you have to keep each other on a damn leash?” -Norm, probably

Oh my God, Paul’s grandfather is handing out fake Beatles autographs. Unbelievable.

Okay, Ringo placing his coat over various mud puddles for a woman, and then she steps onto it and falls down a hole? THAT was funny. I can get THAT kind of humor.

AND THEN HE GETS ARRESTED? OMG?

I think Paul’s grandfather might be certifiably insane.

17 minutes, 15 seconds. And some of it will be credits. I can do this.

So John, Paul, and George break Ringo out of jail, while somebody attempts a carjacking. “Can’t Buy Me Love” plays.

Paul sounds way too much like he’s seriously upset as he tells off the old man.

John: “He can’t help it if he’s old.” HA.

What is with the running gag of Paul’s grandfather being “clean”? Am I missing something? Is this an inside joke?

See, I’d like to play the part of a fangirl. All I have to do is scream. Maybe pee once or twice.

Ah…Now this I can appreciate: Just the Beatles performing. Listening to their music. Looking at their beautiful faces. And…those of their fans. Come on, is that really necessary?

I was going to say it was cute that Paul’s grandfather is handcuffed to this guy and cheering with the fans in the audience, but then he has to pop up in the middle of the stage during “She Loves You,” only for George and Paul to kick him off. Ha!

And here’s where I might say, “I guess the old man isn’t so bad after all.” Nope! I still haven’t forgotten his slight against books.
