Just watched it on my SW flight last week. Really liked it.

Deleted scene. Apparently the woman there was meant to be the third part of the love triangle (his temptation), but they completely cut her out. So this scene had to go.

They put Ana in the trailer and she wasn't in the movie, so there's a lawsuit.

This suit is ridiculous. But count me in if there's a class action suit against Rian Johnson for The Last Jedi.AgHawkeye said:oragator said:

5 million dollars because an actress you like did not appear in the film. Man I really try to give people the benefit of the doubt and believe most people are general decent but damn some humans really make it hard.

That looks incredible. Came in prepared to privately roll my eyes at all of you, but damnit if that doesn't look amazing. Also, Lily James.

Been said before, but the thing that took biggest suspension of disbelief in a movie where the history of the Beatles randomly disappears overnight is that anyone would put Lily James in the friend zone. Especially this character.
I found the main character to be completely unlikeable, and not just because he friend-zoned Lily James.
Yeah, I wanna hold your hand and yellow submarine are among the worst songs I can think of.taxpreparer said:
My dad was very anti-Beatles. In 1975, we were together in my car and I played Yesterday from my 8 track. I asked what he thought of this song, without telling him who the group was. He loved it and admitted they did have some good music. I cannot say he ever liked I Wanna Hold Your Hand."
It's a good song. But hearing it for the first time didn't change my life. The reaction in the movie really is extreme and kind of cringe. Greatest of all time? You do realize others have different taste in music, don't you?TXAG 05 said:
If Yesterday, the most covered song of all time, and considered one of the greatest of all time, is "just ok" I'd love to know what songs you consider worthy.
They cut the romance aspect to it.Moral High Horse said:
This is a movie that could have been much more than a rom com. It had a great premise that was wasted. I thought the movie was well shot but the story towards the end got a little corny. Being chased down by a movie exec? Really?
I propose it should have been soley about a man coming to terms that he was never going to being a rock star. The end. The love interest deal should have been well in the background.
Needs a Snyder cut of this movie. Who knows.
You mean a song that is just changed lyrics of Hello My Coney Island baby?aTmAg said:
I'm sure "happy birthday" is performed way more often than Yesterday. That doesn't make it great.
And to answer your question: The Aggie War Hymn.
Yes. The lyrics make it the greatest song ever.Rudyjax said:You mean a song that is just changed lyrics of Hello My Coney Island baby?aTmAg said:

The first time I heard Time, I was actually floored by the lyrics and they still have an impact on me to this day. But I wouldn't assume everyone in the world who hears Time would feel the same as I do. I also didn't react to that song the same way they do in the movie to Yesterday, even though it is probably the one song that has had the biggest impact on me of any other song. It literally was a catalyst to me making a big change in my life.
Exactly. Not sure how anyone missed this point.AgHawkeye said:DallasTeleAg said:It's a good song. But hearing it for the first time didn't change my life.

I felt the point in the movie was this is your friend who you have been supporting for a long time trying to make it in music. Sure he has some decent songs that you like more than you should because he is your friend but you probably know deep down he is not going to "make it" and then out of nowhere he throws down Yesterday while missing a tooth and you are like I have been listening to all that other crap when you had this.
I enjoyed the movie and that scene actually just for trying to put yourself in the place of the characters. The song by itself doesn't get that reaction but your friend who you have known trying to make good music busting it out does.
Meanwhile Richard Starkey is wondering who this Ringo Starr guy is.MW03 said:
One thing that did make me laugh was during the big reveal when he told the truth and identified the real song writers, and I'm wondering if he just ruined their lives because you know someone is going to hunt them down and want to talk to them about writing all these famous songs. Meanwhile, McCartney is somewhere living a blissful Mr. Holland's Opus life as a middle school band instructor somewhere and just absolutely getting hounded with interview requests and whatnot.
