Yeah, that was very strange. I think Justin Long and Jason Schwartzman were pretty damn good as George and Ringo, actually, especially Justin (holding the sitar was a cool touch, and he seemed to have George's accent and phrasing down).



But Jack Black never even sounded like McCartney (forget even looking like him). That was just odd. He went from a posh British accent, to something that sounded more Scottish, and then back again (and even something weird in between that was very ???). He never had that familiar Beatle-y/Liverpool thing that the other three - Rudd, Schwartzman and Long - were doing.

Very odd. I did like the little Yellow Submarine-like cartoon they all became as they ingested the LSD.



I also noticed that a lot of things that were in the trailer didn't make it to the final cut (the Cox sausage commercial, John mocking Ringo's "octopus" comment, disco-skating on the TV show, punching out Patrick Duffy, calling Eddie Vedder "Eddie Veeder", etc.).
