Watching "A Hard Day's Night" for the umpteenth time.

Why are these four lads disliked so much by succeeding generations?

The Beatles were ground-breaking in their day. Everyone was crazy about them. I'd put John Lennon's and Paul McCarthy's song writing skills up against anybody's.

They were disliked?

Nobody says the right thing all the time, I suppose. Even Christ questioned His Father with this much discussed and perplexing plea - "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

What? John dumped Pattie? You may have been misinformed.

But, in researching your statement, I came across this bit of news - - I always thought there were 2 or 3 songs written about Pattie but there were actually 10!

@rinkydinkydoink Sorry, I get Gerogie's girl and Lennon's wife mixed up

Who dislikes them? You’re imagining things.

@rinkydinkydoink That’s a sign of how much they’re loved and admired, not disliked.

I’m partial to the King’s Singers.

Ok, here's the deal - I realize, on the whole, The Beatles are revered by many, many, many people but some, a few, a piddly number of malcontents (mostly metal heads, gen Z?) intensely dislike, what they consider to be, the undue praise the boys have received over the years. Or maybe they dislike those who like/love the mop tops. Whatever. Maybe it's merely a knee jerk reaction typical of newer generations wanting to dispose of the past rather than automatically revering it.

Personally, I've always liked them. Maybe not loved, though...
@RedBaron

Not bad at all :)
The movie is a classic musical, equally as watchable compared to the Hollywood type. Being fun to watch makes it great.

Pioneers. How can anyone hate them 🤦🏻‍♀
@Lilymoon

I know, eh? Hating Freddie and the Dreamers I can understand... 😁

Saw it when it was new. Stayed and watched it again.
Funny movie, love how they escape the cops at the station and evade fans to get to the studio.

Plus... Pattie Boyd 😍
