| "Disney and director Robert Zemeckis are negotiating to remake “Yellow Submarine,” the 1968 psychedelic animated film based on the music of The Beatles. The studio has been quietly brokering a complicated rights deal that would give Zemeckis access to 16 original Beatles songs for a movie he will direct in the performance-capture 3-D digital production format he employed for “A Christmas Carol.” Disney opens that film November 6, with Jim Carrey playing Scrooge as well as the three ghosts who haunt him in the Charles Dickens tale. The hope is to have "Yellow Submarine" ready to premiere around the 2012 Summer Olympics, which begins July 27 in London. Disney would not comment on the negotiations or the project. Zemeckis’s ImageMovers would produce." Read the whole article here: http://weblogs.variety.com/bfdealmemo/2009/08/disney-zemeckis-board-yellow-submarine.html ![]()

| I am not sure I like this idea all that much. I love the Beatles . . . but it just seems like yet another way to make money. The only way that I will be OK with this is if all they are doing is taking the old artwork and tracing it to make it 3D. lol I hate it when "classic" things like that are taken and remade/retooled.

Also, I read on Wikipedia that they're hoping that by doing the remake, it'll pave the way for a "Broadway-style Yellow Submarine stage musical, similar to "The Lion King" or "Love", as well as merchandising." I guess I just miss the days of being able to make a movie based on an original idea.
