    I think its a travesty. The pop-art look and feel of the animation of the original movie was just as important as the music. Going for a hyper-realistic 3D film like "The Polar Express" seems unnecessary and completely destroys the artistic intent of the original movie. Normally sequels don't bother me - short of the fact that its tiresome when studios keep rehashing old successes to minimize risk of doing anything new. In this case, however, I think its a awful idea . . .

      WHY???????

      Doesn't anyone have any imagination or creativity anymore? Are we doomed to endure remakes for the rest of eternity?

        They remake everything anyway ....

        Nobody cares and nobody watches

        They have so much money they must feel compelled to just dump it on projects like this.

          Come on!

          Disney is already going to ruin Marvel, now they are going to ruin the Yellow Submarine. The movie is a classic and should be let go and be the classic that it is.
          How much worse will disney do to the world?!

            Sad thing is, creativity often gets way-sided for profit.

              >Doesn't anyone have any imagination or creativity anymore?

              Those people were all broken YEARS ago.

              >Are we doomed to endure remakes for the rest of eternity?

              Yup.

              >creativity often gets way-sided for profit.

              See; THERE'S the key. If people didn't pay to see them, they'd stop making them. But I'm convinced people really WANT the same old same old again and again. (Look how poorly things that are different do. Who's fault is that?)

              What I find creepy is how much the Beatles have been exploited as "product" the last few years.

                2006 is when Michael Jackson sold a big chunk of Northern Songs to Sony.

                After that Sony has been doing what they want with the songs.

                          Does Paul and Ringo even have a say in anything Beatles related today ?

                          ... or have they've been lowered to just employee's at the Beatle factory ?

                          Let's take this new film as an example ...

                          If Ringo was 100% against it, would they (could they) still make it anyway ?

                          I'm guessing for sure.

                            Essentially that is what you become after you or your band or whatever is Gone. A brand name. Elvis, Marilyn....Michael Jackson etc. It's how the estates have to pay their Taxes so we get bombarded with Celeb products on anything they can think of.........In the end it's always been about the Money.

                            Plus this is nothing new with the Beatles. Beatle Products were in abundance during the hey day of Beatlemania.
