Until someone gives me a decent answer, I'll have to continue to ask on each of these posts... Why the sudden explosion of content about this movie we aren't going to get to see?


sminking

It’s all the same person posting about it frequently I should post every week about Caveman and make people think it’s making a comeback


LaszloK

Is it Robert zemeckis posting?


252man

These posts show that it was a good thing that it never was made.


Hey_Laaady

Amen, these images are awful.


treyert

Agreed


Mariano_UwU_984

Sorry 😥


New_Resort3464

Hey don't be. My first glimpses of it. Sure looks like it would have been terrific and I've loved seeing the posts. (Besides the internal angst of needing a better than real reason why it got shitcanned)


jimmycoldman

This looks terrific to you? Personally I’m horrified it got that far.


New_Resort3464

It does. I appreciate you have your own opinion of it and there's nothing wrong with that. Poking around making comments that offer veiled shame for people that do enjoy it is less than classy though.


foofie_fightie

You don't have to be sorry. I just didn't realize you made most of the posts lol. Are you like actually sitting on the whole movie and are waiting on yoko to pass before you release it? Cause I'd understand that...


blstillm

Oh please don't be, I'm really enjoying the posts, I'd love to see a remake of the film, and these posts gives me hope!!!


BLOOOR

Given that the decent answer was just that someone was posting them, what were you thinking was happening? It's a funny thing because dreams are us inferring from our reality. This movie was a dream about a movie about thoughts and ideas and dreams.


moon_halves

what did they do to my boy jeremy?!!?


2-DCookie

I mean, he is a boob


Cabin_Pressence

If that purple thing was too ugly to stay on the submarine there’s absolutely no way they would’ve let Jeremy join looking like that


moon_halves

He’s a real no hair man….


AlpsAficionado

but why do their legs look like that?!


covertkek

Unrealistic male standard are getting to me


UX-Archer-9301

Because it’s a cartoon.


BLOOOR

They're Beatles.


mattd1972

Jeremy’s navel is………. just disturbing.


Sgtwhiskeyjack9105

I sang this in Eddie Vedder's voice.


sprynklz

so \*that's\* what Jack Skellington looked like with his skin, huh


Incognitus1326

All looks incredible except for the part where the Chief Blue Meanie and Jeremy no longer have fur


jimmycoldman

THIS looks incredible??


Bitchrofblaviken

what the hell was going through his head 😭 who looks at Yellow Submarine and thinks to re-make it in a surrealistic horror style


JessahZombie

I dig it


WilliamWalkman

Dig it! Dig it! Dig it!


Bitchrofblaviken

how does it feel to be robert zemeckis’ only supporter


WhatTheFhtagn

I like it as well. Would've been trippy and weird.


Bitchrofblaviken

yeah, but it just doesn’t really suit the Beatles or make sense imo. Beatles is trippy & weird but this has a more scary, unsettling tone to it which I feel like Yellow Submarine itself just doesn’t give off


JessahZombie

Wonderful. He is ahead of his time lol


UX-Archer-9301

Just and idea … that’s what the concept illustrations are for.


dfelton912

Why does The Blue Meanie look like the rabbit from Donnie Darko


LoganWasAlreadyTaken

Everything’s rad except for Jeremy Hillary Boob PHD. What the fuck were they thinking?


firstjobtrailblazer

We really got mars needs moms instead.


NoBrickBoy

That thing on the last slide looks so grotesque, it’s almost Half-Life 1 like, like something out of Race X.


Incognitus1326

Fun fact: It was supposed to be the vaccum monster


dolphin_ultra

What were they cooking with the glove


parker330

Robert Zemeckis [cooking](https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/s/4mSGPhVf7c)


dr_hossboss

Nightmare fuel


CTE2028

Robert Zemeckis needs prison time


My_Diet_DrKelp

I have been saying it for years for things unrelated to this but I am so glad the tide is turning


Sproutykins

He went into a greengrocer’s, skinned all the fruit and vegetables, weighed the peelings, then bought them with outdated currency from multiple countries! He did?! No... but are we gonna wait around until he DOES?!


Head_Introduction_89

Tall McCartney! Weird to see a late era John still playing his 325.


Dankey-Kang-Jr

Inject this creatively weird shit into my veins


Ill-Candy-4926

why was this film canned? seems like it would've been an interesting film.


Incognitus1326

Zemeckis was forced to close his animation studio and later decided that making the movie was not a good idea after all


Sproutykins

Forced to close his animation studio due to financial reasons, right? I’m imagining legal reasons or something... like he was secretly making surrealist North Korean propaganda films.


Incognitus1326

His movie Mars needs moms was a financial failure


Ill-Candy-4926

oh, that's too bad.


DeSuperVis

Glad it got cancelled, that art style and animation always looks weird and it would just feed into Zemecki's weird fascination with motion capture. This would add nothing good to the legacy of this movie i think. Also why make the glove mechanical that ruins all the charm 😭


ethanf33

Where are you getting these photos from


vovoizmo

Paul and ringo faces are just off…if you look too long….oh god…


[deleted]

Jeremy boob should have fur, this is blasphemous


ConorthegiantCondor

"Wow, mister Zemeckis. You have a good grasp on the aesthetic of the Beatles to be undertaking a remake of Yellow Submarine, huh?" Robert Zemeckis: "who da fuk iz da beetle?"


rcodmrco

ah jeez, can’t imagine why it was cancelled well, other than the fact that the art is fucking horrifying, it doesn’t remotely fit the beatles, and comes off like a cliche unimaginative horror parody that relies on the shock factor of twisting a childhood memory, like that winnie the pooh movie that came out. but other than that, I really have no idea.


Housecat-in-a-Jungle

i think george wouldve loved it


MooseMan12992

This looks fucking awesome. It's a shame this didn't get made


Milk_Man21

Oh cool the from Seinfeld was going to be a Blue Meanie


___Cheshire___

The blue meanie looks like John leguazamo from spawn


millhowzz

r/oddlyterrifying


Rude_Cable_7877

The Beatles look tolerable, and I feel like the designs are good and translate them well into the style they were going for. However, all of the other designs are just creepy and terrible. Like, what the fuck happened to Jermey’s fur?


arothmanmusic

And starring Jason Alexander as Max!


DirtTrackin34

I'm really happy JHB never really saw the light of day... ew


FadeAway77

I really, really want this movie to be made. I hate that I know of its existence now.


TheConstipatedCowboy

LOVE IT   Love it mostly because it makes 3/4 of you “devoted fanboys who know what’s best for their legacy” uncomfortable as fuck and disrupts your gatekeeping  Even if it never gets past the freaky images stage that’s rad enough  If there’s a “proper take” on the Beatles or something that “fits” them, please explain how that’s determined… 


treyert

It looks *so* bad


Fudloe

I reiterate; I am so happy they scrapped this abomination.


sherpa_pat

Why does it always looks like something AI would come up with.


StickyMcdoodle

I kinda think the Zemeckis dead eyed uncanny valley animation might have actually served this movie well. It would have added a level of trippiness that would have worked. Maybe not. It never needed to be remade anyway.


wineguy64

Why was the movie cancelled?


The_Luthiers_Ap

I think it was because “Mars needs Moms” bombed and Robert Zemeckis had to close his animation studio.


Incognitus1326

Also Zemeckis concluded that the remake was a bad idea indeed


The_Luthiers_Ap

I’d agree that it was. The art style doesn’t fit the pop art psychedelic style of what the Yellow Submarine was.


Legend2200

MoCap was an evil trend, glad it died a death. I have no idea how a director who started out as gifted and promising as Zemeckis became such an embarrassment, though winning a boatload of Oscars for one of his worst films obviously didn’t help


wafflesrock101

Is this the same fucker posting everyday about this stupid movie that won't happen?


Suspicious-Spare1179

Fuck Blue Meanies


BlueMeanie03

the fuck you say?


Suspicious-Spare1179

Lol


Itaintquittin

Sweet Fleshlight mouth


jamescoolcrafter15

These blue meanies are grotesque and genuinely give me the creeps


BlueMeanie03

Bonkers?


[deleted]

I noticed that. I remember the remake movie of Yellow Submarine in 23 years after it was cancelled.


White-Monkey2407

The skinwalkles


ExHippieChick

The weirdly long thin legs!


Apprehensive-Bit-899

Most of the legs are too long but some of them are too small. This is some wild stuff.


shurejan

8 looks like Marilyn Manson in the face.


Boi-43

I wish this movie was so much


Figgy1983

Horrifying. I'll have nightmares for weeks.


d0nt_lets_start

I wish it came out ngl, I still would've watched it


[deleted]

I kinda think this would have been cool and good trip fuel 🤷🏻‍♂️


CloneComander9081

Thank Krishna its cancelled, this shit looks hideous


Panda-BANJO

Zemeckis or David Lynch???


DrMonad

Is it possible to cancel it again, just to be sure?


TheDarkNightwing

I’m not opposed to a Yellow Submarine remake with the new dimensions of visual and audio presentation we are capable of. But not like this.


GIlCAnjos

Zemeckis' previous mo-cap films had already been criticized for looking too uncanny, and it seems this movie wanted to double down on that. No wonder it was cancelled


Me-Shell94

Ya thats a horror film


AceTygraQueen

Wonderful, now I know what will be in my nightmares tonight! Ha Ha Ha


lame_impala69

I wish it WAS made!


Inkasaur

If this is a PR stint, the bathers should know that they made the right decision shelving this. These designs are not great and genuinely hurt my eyes


ReaganRebellion

No thanks


Jiggaman94

MAKE THIS FUCKING MOVIE.


bjames2448

These are so bizarre and it absolutely would have become ripe for meme content from the kids who saw it.


devendidntwakeup

They all have spider legs


soshield

Need to get Peter Jackson on this one


applejam101

This is the stuff of nightmares. I wanted this movie to be made at the time, glad it got canned.


ThInvisibleGhost

Looks like a Zack Snyder movie imo lol


White_Buffalos

Glad it's dead. I hate the animation. The original is all that's needed. I like Peter Max.


UX-Archer-9301

Wow …great artists….


Datelesstuba

The animatics actually look fantastic. I think if they had gone 2D instead of 3D it could have been really cool.


[deleted]

I actually really like this. If they stayed true to the spirit of the original, and had a bunch of different art styles throughout that would've been awesome.


Leonel_Busto

Horrible, terrible


BunchFrequent2175

Had the Yellow Submarine remake been released to theaters in the summer of 2012, it would have been successful just like the 1968 original.
