Beatles yellow submarine cartoon movie movie#
When George Dunning and Al Brodax, who directed and produced their cartoon series, asked the Beatles for permission to make a cartoon based on "Yellow Submarine", they agreed mostly because the cartoon would help them finish their movie contract. They did not want to appear in another movie. (The band themselves were not involved in the making or writing of the series, and did not like the series very much.) The Beatles had a contract with United Artists, to make three movies for them, but had not liked the way their second movie, Help!, had turned out.
King Features Syndicate, a cartoon publisher (who were also famous for Popeye the Sailor), produced an animated series featuring the Beatles's likenesses and songs. Both songs became popular, but "Yellow Submarine" was especially liked by children. It also became a single, with " Eleanor Rigby" as its flip side. The recording appeared on their Revolver album, released later the same year. It shows how animation can be different at the time, when animation was marketed towards children.īeatles John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote " Yellow Submarine" in 1966, with help from another singer, Donovan, who also performed on the Beatles's recording of it. It is also the title of two soundtrack albums, featuring the music used in the movie.
Yellow Submarine is a 1968 animated cartoon movie, based on the music of The Beatles, and was inspired by their song of the same name.
