Across the Universe

[redcannon]

I saw this movie the other day, and I cant believe how brilliant it was. Not only did it successfully tie in the music of the Beatles, but it showed various important historical people, such as Ken Kesey( played by Bono as Dr. Robert) and Tim Leary (mentioned as Tim Geary).
Granted, it did kind of beat of the SDS (represented as SDR in the movie) but, eh, it was still good.


what are your thoughts?

I want to see it desperately, but it didnt make it to my lil yahoo town. I suppose I will have to wait for it on dvd which sucks.

Well all I can say is that its a classic I mean to see this stoned just imagine.

umm...all the character names were based off of Beatle's songs....

Jude -Hey Jude
Dr. Robert -Dr Robert
Lucy -Lucy in the sky with diamonds

and such.

Can't forget Prudence.

I've seen the movie twice now and I'm bound to see it some more.

i actually didnt like it that much. it had really good music, cinematography, and visual effects but the plot was shit. it seemed like they tried to make a movie based off the songs rather than make a movie and fit songs into it. basically i liked everything about it except for the plot.
