The Beatles’ classic 1968 animated feature film, Yellow Submarine, has been digitally restored for DVD and Blu-ray release on May 25. The film’s songtrack album will be reissued on CD simultaneously.
The film has been out of print for sometime and you will now have a chance to own your very own copy. Here is a refresher of the storyline ;
"Once upon a time... or maybe twice, there was an unearthly paradise called Pepperland, a place where happiness and music reigned supreme. But all that was threatened when the terrible Blue Meanies declared war and sent in their army led by a menacing Flying Glove to destroy all that was good. Enter John, Paul, George and Ringo to save the day! Armed with little more than their humour, songs, and of course, their yellow submarine, The Beatles tackle the rough seas ahead in an effort to bring down the evil forces of bluedom."
Interestingly the voice overs for the Beatles are not the voices Beatles but actors. Still, the Beatles do appear in the last scene. The animation is awesome and the colours pop. Check out the unrestored version below and just imagine how juicy and delicious the digitally restored one will be.
