    The Beatles recorded 213 songs from 1962 to 1970. 188 of those songs were originals. The Beatles still stand to this day as the most important and influential band in the history of popular music, a global phenomenon unlike any other, and agents of cultural change unprecedented in modern history.

    When you know someone long enough, especially before one might have romantic feelings and just like each other as friends, the transition can be difficult. At what time does one say it's time to ask her out? If she says no, does that end the friendship, since it can? When she was his manager, then there's the extra complication of mixing work and pleasure/romance. If she said no at that point or even yes and it didn't work out, then many possible negative outcomes could arise.
    It's easy to say he's foolish to miss the signals and opportunities when viewing from the outside, and even a person seeing themselves in hindsight can easily spot that, too. But as it happens a day at a time, it can be much harder. Sometimes it takes such a situation to get better at spotting it in one's own life to avoid it happening again or happening for very long again.
    As a movie, I loved the movie. The concept and the music were both great. The relationship had a tension that leads to the kind of reaction on display in this video.

    The Beatles have the records to prove how good they were. The first few years of the early 60s were mostly copy cats or covers of 50s hits until they came along in late 62 with a sound that was different. Even they covered a few older 50s hits early in their careers. The Beatles were good but also very lucky and came at a perfect time and jump started a new period of music creativity that lasted until the end of the 60s. Just little more than a few years. It was a very short period of time but an amazing one. The best band ever? Today? I seriously doubt most people under 30 would think so.

    It makes you wonder, would the Beatles be this popular if they came out today. I'm not so sure. The style was quite different back then. Even the lyrics "I want to hold your hand" meant something more back then. These days I think girls would reply "OK, then what?".

    The movies alright and a bit of fun, but I really feel there was a lot of missed potential. Regardless of how much you enjoy their music, theres no denying their massive influence on culture and even history. To have a story where they never existed would be cool for seeing what they impacted. Alternatively, in having someone else claim their songs, you could show how much other influences impacted their success (What the members themselves were like/how they were presented, the culture they emerged in, what else existed alongside them at the time, etc). To have it just another claim to fame that couldve been told any other way is a little disappointing. (Yes, I also watched Elliot Robberts' video on it) Like I said, still a fine movie, but Id *love* to see what someone else could do with the concept

    This movie was a slight disappointment to me. The approach was a bit too simplistic. A Star rises, has trouble with his girl, fails a bit, and gets her back. It was not really a tribute to Beatles music at all. It could have been anything. Sorry, one guy with a guitar is just not going to wow the audience, even with a song as heart-stopping as 'I Want to Hold Your Hand'. Also, it was the chemistry of the Four and the social setting which propelled them to such heights. And the music of course.

      I like some of AC/DC’s stuff but they’re basically johnny one notes. They’re just a riff band with no variety. In no way are they, in any way, comparable to The Beatles.

    “Not the best band in the world” …..in your opinion!!

      I honestly don't think I could say who the best band in the world is. Just every ten years or so that would be a drastically different conversation. It would be an interesting chat for sure.

    Why are you so obsessed with the relationship?
    Who cares?
    And i do question your lack of musical appreciation.

    It didn't live up to the hype, or my expectations really. It lost it's way and didn't know where it was going. A few interesting ideas in the second half of the film, but they seemed in isolation. It all got too thin. Good odea to start, but after that I don't think Danny Boyle knew where best to go with it. I was disappointed. Rocket Man was the same.
