Favorite scenes?

Personally, I liked that little snippet right after "I Am the Walrus." John plays with the little kid, and then Ringo loses his mind, it's all very wonderful. That's just one of the few, "Hey, I actually know what's going on now" moments of this movie for me, and it's so adorable that I absolutely love it.

"Your Mother Should Know" was pretty good too, although now I can't walk anywhere with that song stuck in my head without having to resist the terrible urge to do that little rhythmish walk thing they did once they reached to bottom of the stairs, where they all point their toes out and sot of swing with each step. (Of course, I can hardly listen to Revolution without doing my stupid little dance when the chorus comes on, too. And "I Me Mine" leads to me waltzing across the room.)

I really love the part with everyone singing in the bus with Ringo looking quite drunk and that random footage of Paul and that dwarf on a bicycle!
Such a strange but fun movie!

The romantic interlude in which Auntie Jessie and Mr Bloodvessel enjoy each other's company on the beach to the accompaniment of a lush, orchestral version of "All My Loving" played molto amoroso!

Yes! That's the best part. Where the hell else could you possibly ever see a sequence like that? For goodness sake, he's shoveling it from the floor!

To be honest, I only like the film because of the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band's performance of Death Cab For Cutie. Although, I do like some of The Beatles' performances as well, but probably not as much as Vivian Stanshall's singing.

Never did get a chance to see this movie or any Beatles movie to be exact, I did however see the Blue Jay Way sequence which was pretty awesome. The one thing about that is that at one part, you can see a headless corpse with "Magical Mystery Boy" sprawled into his chest. I was a bit creeped out by it, that's what made me wonder.... Not to sound like a geek or conspirator....

But is that--like a Paul is Dead clue or something? It was a nasty scene. I've heard so, but I want people to wonder.

i loved when ringo and his aunty were arguing i dont know why i just thought it was some good acting from ringo. i also like the bit when ringo keeps asking where the bus is.

I love "I AM THW WALRUS" and both the wizard scenes, but my favorite is John playing with the little girl. I wonder how Julian felt about that scene later on.

Life is far too important to ever be talked about seriously.

Love John and little Nicola as well, you can tell that he was already a dad at the time.
