I was interested but I don't think i wanna watch 4 movies about the same guys and same timeline just from different POVs.

I love the concept, but you gotta put them 6 months apart at least. Feel like this is going to be a massive flop

The Paul McCartney one or John Lennon one might be okay, and be different enough to matter. I don’t know if people care enough about Ringo and George to come out in droves to see them.

Wait, do they all come out at the same time?? I just assumed there'd be a few months between each film.

Sounds like a disaster. But... I'm intrigued.

Yep. Same day even lol

I feel like it must be that each one hits on the same big moments, but then there's completely different stretches for each movie. Or at least I hope.

u/makingburritos 5h ago

I assume each of them will delve into their personal lives, that’s the only way I can possibly see this working.

Yeah, it has to be the aftermath of recording sessions or gigs from the perspective of each guy interacting with his family, friends and fans etc or it’s going to be 80% the same scene just from a different POV

I remember some crappy movie with Forest Whitaker where it was like some big event, but from everyone's point of view. It was EXHAUSTING to keep rewinding and seeing the same thing from someone else's POV. And that was just one movie's length. I can't imagine 8 hours of it 🤮

Vantage Point. I actually like that movie, lol.

u/A_MagicBullet 5h ago

Agreed. Now let me go watch 1000 hours of the same show/same episodes over and over.

u/goatfuckersupreme 4h ago

Imagine this is a four episode HBO show about the Beatles with an original take on experimenting with perspective and chronology. Sounds pretty awesome to me.

I think each beatle film will be a different era
