Just finished watching "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", the movie, on YouTube. Well, I skipped many, many parts, the whole thing is like a huge collection of music videos. Needless to say, I can see why it's rarely mentioned. It's an odd film, some of the covers are good but the rest really don't work for me; most interesting parts of this movie, for me, were George Burns (yes, even the "Fixing a Hole" cover), Earth Wind & Fire, and Billy Preston.

Speaking of Billy Preston, here's something that I noticed, as a Star Wars fan: when he's shooting lasers out of his hands, the sound is unmistakably that of a lightsaber being turned on:

and earlier in the film, towards the beginning, I've heard the sound of Luke's speeder a couple of times:

the same sound is used with the machinery in Mr Mustard's van, along with a couple of sounds from the Millennium Falcon

what in blue blazes??
