I didn't read that. But just the headline had me interested in this movie and this is the first I'm even hearing of the thing.

[LoathedVermin72]

It’s the most insane twist I’ve ever heard...who let this movie happen

Must. Not. Read. Spoiler.

Snyder is doing a zombie movie. I'm on board for that.

“There are no handcuffs on me at all with this one,” Snyder told The Hollywood Reporter. “I thought this was a good palate cleanser to really dig in with both hands and make something fun and epic and crazy and bonkers in the best possible way.”

Oh my god I’m going to cry

OOooh


New Film Project
We are proud to announce an exciting new collaboration between The Beatles and the acclaimed Academy Award winning director Sir Peter Jackson

The new film will be based around 55 hours of never-released footage of The Beatles in the studio, shot between January 2nd and January 31st, 1969. These studio sessions produced The Beatles’ Grammy Award winning album Let It Be, with its Academy Award winning title song. The album was eventually released 18 months later in May 1970, several months after the band had broken up.

The filming was originally intended for a planned TV special, but organically turned into something completely different, climaxing with The Beatles’ legendary performance on the roof of Apple's Savile Row London office — which took place exactly 50 years ago today.

Peter Jackson said, "The 55 hours of never-before-seen footage and 140 hours of audio made available to us, ensures this movie will be the ultimate ‘fly on the wall’ experience that Beatles fans have long dreamt about."

“I was relieved to discover the reality is very different to the myth,” continues Jackson, “it’s simply an amazing historical treasure-trove. Sure, there’s moments of drama - but none of the discord this project has long been associated with. Watching John, Paul, George, and Ringo work together, creating now-classic songs from scratch, is not only fascinating - it’s funny, uplifting and surprisingly intimate”.

"I’m thrilled and honoured to have been entrusted with this remarkable footage - making the movie will be a sheer joy.”

That sounds amazing.

[LoathedVermin72]

Is he going smear all the footage with DNR and colorize it like in his dumb WWI documentary?

[dimejinky99]

I was hoping it was a secret project for him to restore the Beatles Lord of the rings film.

They tried to film it at some point

The Criterion Channel is launching on April 8. I’m gonna try it out (despite never using FilmStruck).

John Boorman was going to direct. I’d be very curious to see that.

Of course I’d much rather have Jackson’s trilogy, so

Not happy to hear this but I trust Snyder fully
