The Beatles Rock Band: A Sweeping, Magical Dreamscape

“The Beatles: Rock Band,” the animated introductory sequence for the upcoming “Beatles Rock Band” video game, is simply stunning. The animated short tells the career-spanning, mind-bending story of the Beatles in 2 1/2 minutes, seamlessly blending well designed 2-D and 3-D styles of animation. The sweeping animation highlights the band’s floppy early years all the way to their rainbow-colored psychedelic phase. The film follows their journey from playing at Liverpool’s Cavern Club, to their triumphant appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show and in Shea Stadium, to the swooning, magical dreamscapes of their psychedelic era. Watch this stunning short animation and prepare to have your mind explode!

Includes a number of marvelous pictures from the film, as well as the stunning (HQ) animated short, “The Beatles Rock Band.”

    • Hi numinant,

      Thanks for clarifying. Yes, my posting is about the animation, not the game. And I agree with you, the animation itself is pretty amazing.

      Best wishes to you, disembedded.

      ETA: Okay, that was my kneejerk reaction. The sequence is actually pretty amazing, especially the handrawn (flash?) animation.

      I still despise everything this game stands for.
