This weekend, the 28th and 29th of November, there's a huge Beatles convention taking place in Stamford, Connecticut. Amongst all of the merchandise sales and other such typical expo shenanigans, there's also set to be an open audition for Beatlemaniacs wanting to try out for casting in what they're calling "The Fab Four." Of course, that the film "will be shot as a motion-capture feature...

When I was about ten years old, I was listening to the Beatles' song "Hello, Goodbye" on a jukebox in an Italian restaurant. As was my custom in my youth, I took a pen and started drawing on the extra napkins at our table as my parents finished their after-dinner cocktail. In my mind I was constructing an animated film to accompany the song. Heavily influenced by the " All You Need Is...

Robert Zemeckis has a slightly worrying performance-capture fetish. He hasn't made any live-action films since 2000's Castaway and What Lies Beneath, and it doesn't look like he's going to be making another one any time soon. His remake of The Beatles' Yellow Submarine is set to be a 3D motion-capture adventure, and Rodger Rabbit 2 is leaning heavily in that direction too, the current idea doing the...

There I was, forty years ago, calling in requests to KIMN radio at my brother's behest for "Yellow Submarine," when I heard the news. Oh boy. Paul was dead. The round-faced guy who wrote all the songs was dead. How could this be? From where I was sitting, the Beatles ruled the world. The king of the world was dead. How could we be sure? Well, he was the only one barefoot on the cover of "Abbey...

As bathroom décor often tends towards aquatic themes, a Yellow Submarine Shower Curtain isn’t an entirely surprising idea. The curtain has been designed by Dutch designer Jan Habraken rather than using illustrations from the Beatles film, but the design is...

Yes, we all know that politics is a bloodsport in Illinois. But it's worse than that. Forget the ends justifying the means: In recent years in the Land of Lincoln, all there has been is means. And meanies. And of course the Democratic kind, Blue Meanies. Yeah, just like in the Beatles movie "Yellow Submarine." Which is why Illinois is one of ten state the Pew Center says is facing "fiscal...

The Yellow Submarine exists. It’s not a mirage, or a mind game. Someone, inspired by the Beatles, built the Yellow Submarine, and it exits to this day. Yellow Submarine, the movie, is a great, great film for children and adults, and, in its own way, is as good a Beatles movie as A Hard Day’s Night. Released in November of 1968, the same month that The White Album came out, Yellow Submarine...

Robert Zemeckis is keeping Christmas on the brain, if a new report from Pajiba is correct. The Christmas Carol director - who is working on a Roger Rabbit sequel and a remake of Yellow Submarine , both performance capture experiments - will make a new version of The Nutcracker . It won't be based on the Tchaikovsky ballet but rather the novel The Nutcracker and the Mouse King by E.T.A. Hoffman. According...

It was bad enough that he seems to have been sucked so deep into the Uncanny Valley (look it up) that he's confused it with real animation (you know, what Pixar and Brad Bird do). At least when Zemeckis made Roger Rabbit , he had the rare good sense to hire the incredibly gifted Richard Williams to do the animated parts of the film. You'd think that would've taught him an important lesson, but apparently...

Robert Zemeckis' latest CGI feature, A Christmas Carol, is currently playing and seems to be bringing in the cash, as expected. Whereas Zemeckis used to be an amazing filmmaker, he's now become our bi-yearly deliverer of a fantastical 3D CGI version of some beloved holiday story. First it was The Polar Express, this year it's A Christmas Carol, so what's up next after that? Pajiba claims that Zemeckis...

From the White Album to Yellow Submarine modern releases of the Beatles present their music in stereo sound. But this Christmas, hard-core Beatles fans will eagerly unwrap "The Beatles in Mono," an 11-CD box set designed to be played through only one speaker.

ANAHEIM, Calif (Reuters) –Walt Disney Co is to remake the zany 1960s Beatles movie "Yellow Submarine" in 3-D in a deal with the band's company Apple Corps. Disney Studios chairman Dick Cook said on Friday the new "Yellow Submarine" will be directed by Oscar-winning director Robert Zemeckis using the same motion-capture effects he employed in the family movie "Polar Express." It will incorporate the...
