Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information

    Yellow Submarine

    Who says 'I want me mum', when they're traveling through the Sea of Time and turn into little tykes again?The Beatles: 'Yellow Submarine' Movie (LovleyRita)

      Ringo. Ringo is the oldest Beatle, which is probably why he looks the biggest of the little tykes.

    Who is the first lad Ringo and old Fred find in the house?The Beatles: 'Yellow Submarine' Movie (LovleyRita)

      John. John transforms from Frankenstein the monster, to himself by drinking a potion. Ringo says, in the film, that he used to go out with Frankenstein the monster's sister, Phyllis.

    Who is attributed the lyrics "Sky of blue, sea of green. In our yellow submarine" in the title song?Yellow Submarine (betben)

      Donovan. Donovan's most popular songs were "Mellow, Yellow" and "Sunshine Superman".

    Who did the speaking voice of Paul?The Beatles: 'Yellow Submarine' Movie (LovleyRita)

      Geoffrey Hughes. Peter Batten did the speaking voice of George, Lance Percival did Old Fred, and John Clive did John. Actors did the Beatles speaking voices, but those are the Beatles real singing voices!

    Who always says, 'It's all in the mind?'The Beatles: 'Yellow Submarine' Movie (LovleyRita)

      George. This is said a few times by George throughout the film. It is something that the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi would say at his lectures. The Maharishi was a native to India who taught Indian religion to The Beatles, as well as many other people. George was more into the Indian religion and way of life than the other three Beatles. He would say quotes from the Maharishi a lot of the time, or whenever he thought it was appropriate. No doubt, the directors of 'Yellow Submarine' knew this and threw it in there a few times to make George's cartoon seem more like the real George Harrison.

    When the Beatles walk out of the band storage room, towards the end of the movie, they must quietly walk through the sleeping Blue Meanies. Who joyfully whispers, "Tiptoe, through the Meanies!", causing the others to shush him?We All Live In A "Yellow Submarine" (LucyInTheSky67)

      Ringo. Afterwards, one of the Beatles steps on a bagpipe, causing a clown to set off a siren within his body, awaking the Meanies. The Beatles are chased all over Pepperland!

    When the Beatles venture into the sea of holes, Jeremy informs them that there are enough holes to fill what?We All Live In A "Yellow Submarine" (LucyInTheSky67)

      Albert Hall. The answer can be found in the song, "A Day In The Life", which is not played on Yellow Submarine (although the orchestral measure is played while the Beatles are about to plunge into the sea) but can be found on the album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". Blackburn, Lancashire is a real place in England, yet in "A Day In The Life", that is where the holes are located, not what they are enough to fill.

    When The Beatles are dressed up as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, who's wearing the black beard?The Beatles: 'Yellow Submarine' Movie (LovleyRita)

      John. Paul has the dark green one, Ringo has the brown one, and George has the light green one.

    When Ringo is launched into the sea of monsters, he is carried off by a strange four-legged animal. After a while, the Beatles still remaining in the submarine spy something chasing after Ringo and the strange creature(s). What is it/are they?We All Live In A "Yellow Submarine" (LucyInTheSky67)

      Indians. After Ringo is brought back on the submarine by a calvary button, he describes the Indian encounter to be "arrowing", as he pulls a white arrow from his chest.

    When Ringo drives Old Fred around in the Beatles' home in the beginning of the movie, John is the first Beatle that they meet. What monster is he before he turns into John?We All Live In A "Yellow Submarine" (LucyInTheSky67)

      Frankenstein. "Hey Ringo, I just had the strangest dream!" Old Fred had warned Ringo not to pull the lever that was mounted near the lab table holding Frankenstein, "I can't help it, I'm a born lever puller." After Ringo pulls the lever, Frankenstein is unleashed and drinks a potion that turns in into the lovable John Lennon.

    What two colors is Paul McCartney's tie in the movie?We All Live In A "Yellow Submarine" (LucyInTheSky67)

      Red and Yellow. Paul is first seen in the movie when he walks out of a door in the Beatles' home. Afterwards, he swiftly fluffs his tie, which is the most vibrant and noticable acessory in Paul's wardrobe, in the movie. Paul is the last Beatle to be found in the house.

      "All Together Now" and "When I'm 64". "All Together Now" is played after Paul asks Old Fred how to start the submarine.

They begin to turn into children, John suggests that they move the hands on the clock forward. The clock spins out of control and the Beatles quickly grow very long beards.

"Only A Northern Song" is the third song that the Beatles sing while in the sea of science, and "Nowhere Man" is sung to Jeremy, Hillary, or Boob, after they pass through the sea of monsters.
