It probably won't be addressed in the film but having no Beatles means a lot of songs which they did solo would also be up for grabs as well. 

Imagine

Dude to Lily James at some point because Richard Curtis: "Have you put on some stone, love? Lookin' a bit chubby these days."

I feel like the ending is gonna be him waking up in the hospital to find it was all a Wizard of Oz-like dream.

Honestly that seems too obvious. The suggestion in the trailer is that it's all in his head. Would be interesting if there is a twist and that doesn't happen.

It's Richard Curtis. Expect the most expected.

 

Also the plot synopsis is this guy who's given up on a career in music gets hit by a bus and finds himself in this weird reality.. it's so clear that the ending will have him wake up from this being inspired to not give up on music and realizing that he's in love with Lily James (his best friend).

I can't imagine living in a world without the Beatles, if only because it meant we lost this masterpiece

[dxmatrixdt]

ughh, I hope this one flops.  

(don't know the lyrics to any of their songs but I don't like any of those groups AT ALL)

wish I could travel back in time and tell them to wake up

I think this looks good, and Lily James is queen

I would definitely pay to see this. June's actually looking pretty solid in its selection of movies, what with Toy Story, Men In Black, Pets, this

Idk if I’d say June is looking solid.

 

Im definitely watching this over everything else in June, though.

I Dont want to spoil the party but i Wrote a similar story when i was seven or eight about me writing McCartneys ”pipes of peace” and my mother got so proud. In real life Shes proud anyways. Quite a lady. 

 

And i suppose the bus at the beginning took him on a magical mystery tour. Touché.

the only issue with this plot is that it is pretty much a fact that in a world with no Beatles,  Neither Coldplay or Ed Sheeran would exist. But I guess we can ignore that.

that's why this is so clearly a dream lmao.

the Beatles weren't the beginning of music. music would still exist without them. to say none of those bands would exist without the Beatles is a little crazy.

Without the Beatles, there would have been other bands. Coldplay could have in turn been inspired by someone else.

A Coldplay fan????????????????????

Well, it can't be worse then the last time they made a Musical based on Beatles music:

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sgt._Pepper's_Lonely_Hearts_Club_Band_(film)

 

It's one of the legendary disasters in film history.  Both critics and audiences hated it. Almost everybody involved like to pretend it never happened.  Boyle would really have to screw up badly to create a turkey as bad.
