Feb 5 2007Across the Universe Trailer
From director Julie Taymor comes the self-proclaimed "most original, exhilirating, spectacular, groundbreaking motion picture of the year": a musical with Beatles songs. With lines like, "Music's the only thing that makes sense anymore, man," you'll be pleased that the stoner you knew in 9th grade finally got his script made.
Seriously, man, what does make sense besides music, man? You know what I'm talkin' about. I know you know what I'm talkin' about!

Because the world needs a WHOLE MOVIE's worth of new, terrible Beatles covers.

Al, it's not like they could actually USE the real Beatles tunes.
When's the last time you saw a movie with an actual Beatles song in it and not a cover.
The rights are too ridiculously expensive.

Where are the spaceships? I feel cheated that this isn't a musical version of Event Horizon. I do like that bit with the Marilyn Manson look-alikes performing their synchronized swimming routine.

"omg, you have perfect teeth"
Only the god-damn yanks could put a line like that into a movie. Just to boost the national ego, pretending they are the model human beings. Christ Americans piss me off.
"We're in the middle of a revolution"
Errr ... No. There was no 'revolution' in the U.S. during the 60's. Just LOTS of pot-heads with too much time on their hands sitting in fields listening to loud music.
Just people protesting a war, and people making speeches doesn't make it a 'revolution' ... Grow up.

back off a bit jack! you apparently know very little then of the real unrest that wracked the country and the people who stood up and accomplished something. (civil rights anyone?) before you go spouting off about how much you hate an entire nations worth of people why dont you stop propogating the ridiculous 'hippy' stereotype: that everyone in the 60's did drugs and expressed nothing more than a lazy devotion to the idea of peace. Christ assholes piss me off, regardless of nationality.
