It is a simple story of good versus evil with the message that ‘All you need is love.’ Indeed, the bombardment of their songs at the Blue Meanies sends them into full retreat and harmony is again restored to Pepperland. The story is about Old Fred who is sent to our world in the Yellow Submarine to collect The Beatles by the Lord Mayor of Pepperland, so that they can rescue them from the evil Blue Meanies. Rather begrudgingly they supplied four new songs for the film and it was mainly left to George Martin to compose the soundtrack. Paul hoped it would be a ‘…big Disney-type adventure story.’ Instead, it was based on the psychedelic imagery of ‘Sgt Pepper’ and includes a couple of songs from that album. The song was featured on their ‘Revolver’ album released in 1966, which was written as a kid’s story to suit Ringo Starr’s singing style and a jaunty nautical atmosphere was produced with the use of a brass band accompaniment, special effects and sound mixing. So Paul McCartney suggested using their ‘Yellow Submarine’ song as the basis for the film.

The movie would no doubt have never got off the drawing board except that The Beatles were contractually obliged to supply a third feature film to United Artists.

Nonetheless it did set the mould for further cartoon series featuring popular bands, including The Osmonds and the Jackson 5. They regarded it as promoting terrible stereotypes of themselves, and it was rather crudely animated to say the least.
The Fab Four were not keen on the project, as they had little involvement with the cartoon series.

It was at this juncture Albert Brodax head of King Features, who had already produced ‘The Beatles’ cartoon series that ran from 1965 to 1967 on the US, ABC TV channel, thought it would be a good a good idea to capitalise on its success by making an animated Beatles feature film.
It successfully mixed high art, psychedelia and countercultural ideas and sent them rocketing into the mainstream. The fruit of this work emerged with the groundbreaking concept album ‘Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ which explored different musical styles and its cover by Peter Blake and the accompanying artwork merged seamlessly with their creation of the mythical Sgt Pepper’s Band. To gain full control of their sound they had already abandoned touring in 1966 in favour of working in the recording studio, where they could develop and refine their music using innovative production techniques in close collaboration with their ever present producer, George Martin. Plans for the movie began in 1967 when The Beatles were enthusiastically pushing the boundaries and expectations of popular music. Here you can pose on the Beatlebums art installation, and recreate the iconic picture of The Beatles looking out to sea, where they were no doubt searching for a view of the weird and wonderful Yellow Submarine that saved us all from the Blue Meanies.

Updated on March 28, 2023, By Helen Ashcroft: While we refuse to believe that the 1990s ended over 20 years ago, we do enjoy reminiscing over old cartoons from this glorious decade.
We have them all in this list of '90s cartoons. Others were only relevant to a particular time and place, and some deserve more recognition and credit but somehow never seem to get mentioned. Some were lost to time because they simply weren't very good in the eyes of most. Of course, not all animation from the era is so well-remembered. RELATED: Forgotten Nintendo Games From The 90s It's often said that these years were among the greatest and most innovative periods in animation, with fondly remembered shows like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Ren & Stimpy, DuckTales, Batman: The Animated Series, and many more. It's the subject of nostalgia on television, cinema, and even in fashion. The 1990s is the decade known for bright colors, grunge music, and Saturday morning cartoons.
