As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Post by TheCatt »

The Movie.

I was a decent Beatles fan back in the day, and had a friend who was a super fan. I've watched several Beatles' movies from when I was in college: A Hard Day's Night, Help, Magical Mystery Tour, and Yellow Submarine.

Came across a crossword clue asking who was in most scenes of this movie, and I was like "Wait, that was a movie?" How could I have never seen it? Well, the crossword answer: BEE GEES might be a hint.

This movie is bad. Sgt Pepper's band (Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees) live in a small town, and want to make it big! They go to LA, sign a contract, and their hometown is taken over.

If you want to see some Beatles' songs, maybe even your personal favorite Beatles song, get murdered, check it out.

George Burns is the mayor of the small town/narrator of the movie. Aerosmith sings a song! Earth, Wind, and Fire do, too. Steve Martin! Alice Cooper!

Anyway...
It's not me, it's someone else.

This movie and Xanadu are kind of twins, in my head.
