Robert Zemeckis circles "Yellow Submarine" remake
By Borys Kit Borys Kit – Thu Aug 20, 3:25 pm ET
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Robert Zemeckis is in negotiations to direct a remake of the 1968 animated Beatles feature "Yellow Submarine" for the Walt Disney Studios.
Disney had no comment on the deal. Still being sorted out is the acquisition of rights to the film's music, which includes the title track as well as "Eleanor Rigby," "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," "When I'm Sixty-Four" and "With a Little Help From My Friends."
Like all Zemeckis' animated productions -- among them "The Polar Express" and "Beowulf" -- "Submarine" would be done in performance capture and would be a digital 3D endeavor.
The original movie, produced by United Artists and King Features Syndicate, was a hit. Its story involves a soldier called Old Fred who meets up with the Beatles and travels in a yellow submersible to Pepperland. Among the creatures the group encounters are the music-hating Blue Meanies.

Not too excited.
Modern films that try to recreate the Beatles seem to fail horribly (aka across the universe).
Hope I'm wrong though, I'd like to see it done justice.

Oh, I completely agree. I could never watch "Across The Universe". But the "Yellow Submarine" remake should be good because it's animated. However, if they don't use the original Beatles music, then I will not watch it.

Anything about the Beatles that doesn't actually involve the Beatles isn't something I care about, which includes the original Yellow Submarine. The only reason they're doing this is because of the 9-9-09 "Beatles day" thing which will hopefully get all these little kids off the horrible music they listen to and let them hear some classics.

I think this is going to be a travesty. That movie is perfect as it is. The remake will inevitably be a disappointment. Why not just rerelease to theaters? Or come up with new ideas?
I'll still probably end up checking it out though

How could you not like the "Yellow Submarine" movie? It's hands down the greatest tripping movie ever. And The Beatles were in the movie (at the very end), so it did involve them. Also, I don't think this has anything to do with the game coming out on 9-9-9. I do think it's cool that they chose that date in reference to "Revolution #9".

It'll be good dude. I'll bet that it's going to be just as trippy, but in a 21st century, digital way.

From what I've read, none of them liked the movie or wanted to have any part of it. And it's not only the game on the 9th, it's an entire re-release of their catalogue, so I'm sure it has a little to do with that. And I can't watch movies while tripping, so I don't know

I'm simply saying that without the 9-9-9 thing going on, I don't think they would have ever even thought about making a new movie, I'm not saying they're directly related.
The Beatles themselves were not enthusiastic about participating in a motion picture at the time. They were displeased with their second feature film Help!, and were further discouraged by the disastrous reception of their self-produced TV special Magical Mystery Tour. They did, however, see an animated film as a favourable way to complete their commitment to United Artists for a third film. (Ultimately, due to their relatively small roles and the fact it was animated, United Artists still considered them to owe another movie; Let It Be would be the third film to complete their contract with the studio.) Voice actors were hired to imitate the musicians' voices in the film.
The Beatles were impressed after seeing a draft of the film, and agreed to make a live-action cameo appearance in the final scene, which was filmed in early February 1968. The cameo was originally intended to feature a post-production psychedelic background and effects; but due to time and budget constraints, a blank, black background remained in the final film. While Starr and McCartney still looked the same as they did after they modeled for the animated characters, Lennon and Harrison's physical appearances had changed by the time the cameo was shot. Both Lennon and Harrison were clean-shaven, and Lennon had begun to grow his hair longer.
In The Beatles Anthology video, the surviving Beatles (including Harrison) all admitted that they liked the film. For many years after its release Starr was approached by children and asked "Why did you press the button?", referring to when his character curiously pressed the panic button ejecting him from the submarine into the sea of monsters.[citation needed]
Hell I guess I'm wrong.

 I knew it, because how could anyone in the world not like "Yellow Submarine"? I have cried so many tears of joy watching that movie on acid. It's the perfect trip movie because not only is it the most trippy movie ever made hands down, but it makes you laugh and gives you a really positive vibe. You get the feeling that everyone involved with the film were really groovy, turned on cats at that moment in time and that they wanted peace on earth. Also, I like the fact that the movie seems to be a metaphor about the government crackdown on the hippie culture. The government is the Blue Meanies. They try to turn everything gray and try to wipe out the people who are colorful and full of life. The Beatles come to the rescue and triumph in the end with love. What a great message.
