DAILY CALL SHEET: JULY 17, 2025

 

Yellow Submarine (1968) The vile Blue Meanies launch an attack on Pepperland to put an end to all displays of color and music. Fortunately, Admiral Fred manages to escape in the titular vehicle which he uses to recruit help in the form of The Beatles. To get back to Pepperland, Fred and the Fab Four must traverse a number of weird interdimensional waterways, including the Sea of Nothing where they pick up a morose magical being known as Jeremy Hillary Boob Ph.D. Their forces assembled, our heroes launch a final musical battle against the Meanies. For fans of The Beatles, the 60's aesthetic, or Peter Max's psychedelic artwork, this is a must. Others may leave slightly befuddled.

TIL: The Beatles claimed all you need is love, but what kind, storge, philia, eros, or agape? Storge (familial love), philia (friendship), and eros (passion and desire) are nice, but don't seem to be sufficient to need anything else. That leaves agape , which the Modern Catholic Dictionary defines as "the most distinctively Christian form of love. Used by Christ to describe the love among the persons of the Trinity, it is also the love he commanded his followers to have for one another (John 13:34-35). It is totally selfless love, which seeks not one's own advantage but only to benefit or share with another." Yeah, that sounds like the one.
