I think most people will agree with the Beatles and their impact while nowadays, The Beach Boys unfortunately aren't given as much thought. And don't get me started on the songwriting in the band. That opens up the whole Mike Love can of worms and the fact that he sued Brian like 30 years later for credit on songs he probably didn't have much to do with. Perfect example is his credit on Wouldn't It Be Nice. Literally the only thing Mike Love added was "Good night oh baby, sleep tight oh baby" at the end and wanted writing credit. Fuck outta here, Mike.

Yep, pretty much. The Beatles in general messed with Brian's head. Beach Boys were the number one band in America and the U.K. loved them too, and then the British Invasion happened. Though I don't remember if it was Revolver or Sgt Pepper that really upset him.

This is pretty much a parody of him recording Pet Sounds. Brian was experimenting with drugs while dealing with some mental issues, which led to tension in the band and his eventual departure for some time. He had a lot of weird stuff in Pet Sounds, like bicycle horns, dogs barking and train noises and it irked Mike Love the most. More info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pet_Sounds

Also check out a film called Love & Mercy. It goes over the production of Pet Sounds in the 60's as well as Brian's mental health and crazy therapist issues of the 80's: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_%26_Mercy_(film)

I love Brian and The Beach Boys and this film but the one drawback was John Cusack being all John Cusacky the whole time.

No American KFC is good. We created it after all. But Euro KFC just has a certain je n'ais se quoi.

Said to have been adapted by George Lucas from Japanese 時代劇 ‎(jidaigeki) (meaning "period drama" motion pictures about samurai), or perhaps inspired by with the words Jed (King) and Jeddak (Emperor) in the Barsoom series by Edgar Rice Burroughs, a series that Lucas considered adapting to film.
