- Here is the complete filming session of another Magical Mystery Tour scene, with the Beatles dressed as wizards. I have combined all of the outtake footage with the clips used in the film, and sequenced it all accurately. I have also dubbed in audio as the original video was silent. Enjoy!

Rumour has it that Paul wanted Jimi Hendrix to appear in the Magical mystery tour film. But it clashed with the Monterey pop festival which made Jimi a star.
Monterey Festival was in June. MMT was filmed primarily in September.
George had the easiest dialogue... only one word 😂🤣😆
2 words actually - “A song” lol
@@MeeMee-gz5vp This song's just six words long!
He actually only speaks four words throughout the entire movie. "Thank you" and "a song".
@@markzappasodi 😂🤣🤭
“i spent half an hour lookin for that sugahh” HAHAH
I do not need any drugs to love this. A trainwreck? Yes. A bloody beautiful one at that.
Right? I can see why the general public didn't jive with it as a traditional film with traditional acting and editing, but for what it is, and especially for the time, i think it's fantastic. I love the bizarre choices and sort of "grungy" homespun quality of it. That's part of what makes this whole period of their career so fascinating to me: it feels homemade, low budget, and it just works for them imo
This is just wonderful. MMT is my absolute favourite. Super trippy
I like George saying: a song and Paul saying: and they're having a lovelly time
How paul tries to say it in a posh accent... it makes me laugh so much!!
Even in this little silly scene, you can see who the best actors are. Ringo coming in first, John at a pretty close second, George gets third because he doesn't care enough to be awful at it, and Paul is dead last. (thank heavens because he's infuriatingly good at everything else)
Ringo has had a bit of an acting career himself. He and John are always the best in Beatles movies in my opinion. Idk if it’s just John’s charisma though
I thought that was the rankings too, ringo is hilarious, John’s funny at playing characters, George is disinterested and Paul is just - well...
Ringo was pretty good. His role in the Magic Christian is great, very good film even if it wasn't critically acclaimed. I've read that either Richard Lester or Victor Spinetti said that George was a natural actor and it was a shame he wasn't in more films, but you wouldn't be able to tell given his minimal role here. Paul and John on the other hand... Lol brilliance in music doesn't always translate to brilliance on film i guess
@@rivereuphrates8103 hahaha yeah they can't be good at everything! I LOVE the magic Christian!
Paul is terrible in HELP
Gold.....pure alchemy
Wish there was audio on all of this.
TWO WORDS: ACID &A. CROWLEY
And Billy's Here Have You Guessed
2:28Ringo:WHERE'S THE BUS!?
This is weird❤❤
John and Ringo are so good in these scenes.
Both had natural acting abilities-"How I Won the War","Magic Christian" etc.
Thank you for uploading!!
The Beatles The Best
i bought this when it was on VHS ... i watched it ONCE - and threw it away ... THE GARBAGE CAN THREW IT BACK AT ME !!
My favorite Beatles film (maybe ... LOL... they all are LOL). Still astounds me MMT was ever anything but loved! ❤️ I think folks on Boxing Day might reconsider this gem.
You have a great channel!
You have to take MMT for what it is. Wish I could have been there. You know they had fun.
My Husband was there in West malling at the time as an extra. He said they had a lot of fun.
Paul, George, and Ringo are Gryffindor house.
John....Slytherin 😁
Interesting - that 'The Who's "Magic Bus" was circulating as a demo (1966); was recorded - by 'The Pudding' (1967); 'The Beatles had a bus - based on a "Magical Mystery Tour" (1967), which pre-dated 'The Who's issue of their own "Magic Bus" (1968). (Oopsie!) ✨😄✨
Is Ringo wearing that pink shirt from Get Back here? You can see the collar pulled-up past his wizard’s robe mid-way thru this. Same shirt!
Looks like it. One of the 1966 US tour shirts!
He can also be seen wearing it on the Penny Lane picture sleeve.
I would definitely buy The Beatles in wizard character action figures. Ringo's with a inquirer special feature.
There are russian words written on the blackboard I can see: БИЙТЛСЬ = BEATLES, ПАЛ МкКАРТНЙИ = PAUL McCARTNEY, ЖОН ЛЕНОН = JOHN LENNON, ГЕРГИ ХАРИСОН = GEORGE HARRISON, РИНГО СТАР = RINGO STARR.
I’m I supposed to be tripping on acid to understand wtf is going on in this?
Acid helps ... yes.
Rubbish.
Are you a yank? Just kidding. I wonder if you like Oasis.
It’s called camp comedy look it up
Easy: Ringo the Wizard wants to know where the bus is
I never noticed the jackolanterns and cats on John's wizard hat. A very groovy Halloween 1967 was in store.
Those wizard hats!! Where did we see them turn up magically again soon after? Thank you for posting
Their Satanic Majesty Request...fashionably always tad behind...Thank you for posting
@@danielcruz8347 bingo!! Their Satanic Majesties Request album was released in December 8, 1967.
@@danielcruz8347 Not exactly... ONLY Mick is wearing a similar sort of hat - and it's not any of the hats in MMT.
Just shows that acting isn't as easy at Hollywood makes it look. This has the acting sophistication of a grade school play.
Actually if you watch some of ringos movies he really isnt a bad actor.
The acting doesn't matter, the occult agenda of the film does
Wish there were more wizard scenes!

Amazing catch my man.
Wow and I thought living in a yellow submarine was weird.
*This "AdamBound" channel is one MARVELLOUS WONDER AND MIRACLE of a Beatle channel let me tell you !... And here is a question to the people in charge of the Beatles' releases in box sets, dvds, blue-rays, streamings and so forth : about this incredible, unbelievable, almost surreal bunch of Magical Mystery Tour outtakes of the magicians scene for instance, WHY ON EARTH didn't you guys release these as bonuses in that big 2012 Magical Mystery Tour DVD box set ???... Just why ???... And by the way, you can clearly see with these outtakes that if the Beatles had given it to a professional editor for editing purpose, the film could have been much better and would have probably been longer than 50 minutes !... Because they DID have enough material as one can see here to make that scene a way more complete and compelling scene than it actually is in their finished self-edited final product !... Kudos anyway dear Adam Bound for this magnificent archival work of yours, well done mate !*
On that note...for "Flying" - they used aerial footage from Stan Kubrick's "2001"-movie:

- czcams.com/video/ou6JNQwPWE0/video.html (around 6:59-etc.).
I've often wondered why was Paul's nose red?
Not sure but theirs an old trope of red noses being associated with gluttony which they might have been playing off
And Ringo has a dark circle around one of his eyes.
Blood from the crash
True to the album and song, they just dash this out -tongue in cheek. It does reveal manic energy (especially John breaking into song @5:25). The floor reminds of a break/snack room at Abby Road. Either that or Westminster Abby.
This feels like one big acid trip
I NEED to know what the burning of the magicians’ lab was for
same
I wish it was in the movie because it is a great shot!
Maybe it was ment for Blue Jay Way, some creepy deleted scene (very unlikely) or just an easy way to get rid of the set. Only Paul and Ringo know for sure....
Great to see Mal! Otherwise, it’s awful. But it IS The Beatles!!
John Surrey Mal Evans along with Neil Aspinall were with the FAB4 from the beginning. I didn't know that Evans died in 1976. Same year as my best friend in Chicago. I was 12.
George really wasn’t enjoying that experience
and they're having a 💅lovely time💅
0:12 John Lennon doing his best Zach Hadel impression
No matter how much I love the Beatles,this scene will always show why this movie was a flop.
Did Mal lose a bet or something?
I wonder if all the extra music used in the movie will ever come out. Sounds like them messing around mellotrons and random stuff.
Grazie per condividere queste outtakes ne hai ancora molte ?
It would be better if there was no movie, but only videos related to the songs. No script would be necessary..
I kinda wanted this whacky little snippet in the movie being a lot bigger element of the whole movie. Like maybe the Wizards were behind the tour, and how they intended it to be both magical & mysterious but it wasn't so much because they were really a bunch of bumbling amateurs who were drinking too much of their own potions/ brew. Reference: "Ringo Starr wraps a Christmas Present".. If done well it could have been quite an interesting and funny element, and a way The Beatles themselves could save face -"hey don't blame us, blame them wizards!
John really should have done more acting. He’s so good at it.
It's interesting how George Harrison is hardly in this British television special!
Heck! Mal Evans is in this scene more than George Harrison!
George looked the coolest as a Wizard!
Like I've said many times before, if George Harrison isn't involved, it just isn't THE BEATLES!!!
In the entire Magical Mystery Tour film he says about four words .... aside from singing 'Blue Jay Way' of course.
@@Tom-hk6ub
You know the old expression, "He was there but not there."
This was another hair brained Paul McCartney idea!
In retrospect, I believe George's classic "It's All Too Much" should have been released as a "B" Side to "All You Need Is Love" instead of the dreadful "Baby, You're A Rich Man" that contains an obnoxious McCartney chous. It would have been perfect for the "Summer Of Love."
Instead, after being recorded in June,1967, it was shelved and not released until January 17, 1969 on the dreadful "Yellow Submarine" soundtrack which was another McCartney brainstorm!
What the hell were The Beatles thinking?
@@Tom-hk6ub well, he was the Quiet Beatle..
@@raulmacias1311 Why do so many of you George stans hate Paul so damn much? Paul is the only reason your boy ever *became* a Beatle in the first place, and -- unlike John, who apparently gets a pass via the "OnlyGoodBeatleIsADeadBeatle" trope -- actually participated in the recording of George's songs on the later albums whilst John gaily fucked off to be with Yoko. And it was John, *not* the evil Paul, who famously if accurately observed that George did not get more time and space on the Beatles albums simply because "he just wasn't in our league."
@@raulmacias1311
Wadya talking about man!?
Baby You're A Rich Man is a good track, I wouldn't describe it as dreadful or obnoxious, I think it's sound describes the summer of love perfectly.
I like the original Yellow Submarine album too, even the George Martin side.
Although an EP set with a booklet similar to the Magical Mystery Tour U.K. EP set would have been cool.
That music when the studio was burning… finally I’m able to listen it completely. Was it composed by the Beatles? Who knows
John and Ringo, so I read.
@@AB.BABY. What's its name? :0 where else do I find it?
@@AdrianRojasF there’s a very long version of Flying which is basically the song as it is on MMT but with a different ending on the mellotron. Then this music fades in and it’s performed several times with different variations. It’s on a bootleg but I’m afraid I can’t recall precisely what that bootleg is called. But look for a long version of Flying and you’ll find it.
Edit: found it:

George was the only sane character in this film.
Hey man, realized I used some of your uploaded Melbourne color video for my newest Melbourne colorization, want me to link you in the description ? Sorry I usually ask beforehand and just forgot 🤦
8:31 did the wizards drink their drinks ? The sugar is no more
Where did you get these
George to finded Jerry Adrianni,
a singer brazilian .
Is George Harrison.
Absolutely crazy that you can barely seen anyone’s face lol. Fellas …
This video brought to you by LSD!
07:31 Extended backwards mellotron ending of "Flying"--where did you find this?
Anyone expecting something like a normal movie needs to just forget it! Absolutely bizarre from start to finish and you will occasionally laugh out loud as you simply won't believe what you're seeing. The brilliant music speaks for itself but there is no plot and poor George often looks like a man who's had no choice but to be dragged into this nonsense because his mates are doing it. Not really counting this crazy movie but In my opinion, John should have done more acting in his career as I think he's the best one out of the four.
Pauls nightmare...lol

Is this how the movie is actually cut??? Paul what were you thinking?
This is raw footage.
Why the break in the sound?
Where is the busss!
*a song*
The Beatles excelled at music but not film. Why would you stage this with the actors spending so much time with their backs to the camera?
Well, their music is clearly of better quality than the Fab's adventures in film-land, although I have a soft spot for A Hard Day's Night: The Motion Picture. Spiceworld: The Motion Picture was better though.
The greatest band in music history made the biggest piece of crap in cinematic history😂. As John once said, if Brian was still alive this never would have happened. Good job, Paul--Ed Wood would have been proud of you lol.
George Harrison, IS, The Beatles. He is the band. If you can be bothered to look. Hanging around with them egotistic bellends, apart from Ringo. Must have been hard. George and Dhani.❤
Nah, the four of them were, as per Lennon 1970 interview
And where is the sound
You mean WHERE'S THE BUS
Ahora entiendo xq decían que la película era mala xd
🤓 nerds 🤓
You’re called travis. You’ve lost
I hate copyhight!!
Not even the magic of the Beatles could overcome this dreck.
Agreed. The album is pretty good but the film is dreadful. Paul's idea seemed a good one ie grab a camera and a bus, drive through the countryside and see what happens, unfortunately nothing did.
@@staceykeeley4219 the music is fabulous, but they had some good experience doing that. I think Paul bit off a bit more than he could chew here. You do have to admire his chutzpah though.
@@staceykeeley4219you should take it for what it is - an acid infused monty python-esq sketch show
it's meant to be MAGICK and it works, ask Aleister
Masonic
With more money, a good director etc this could have been a good film. It looks so cheap and amateurish. Too bad !
MMT had a lot of great music, but OMG the "movie" is garbage that hurts to watch. As John Lennon said, if Brian was still alive it never would have happened.
But it did happen and because it’s The Beatles.. it’s alright.
@@fretboardmaster70 Even heroes/idols make mistakes. MMT was a mistake. The Beatles created music that will be listened to possibly for centuries, A Hard Day's Night set the stage for every music video ever made...and MMT gave us some great songs. The "movie"? Crap.
the best LSD movie ever
Which is why ole Bri was gotten rid of.....
This is better than the entire film.
As much as I love the idea beatles.. Magical mystery tour was a poor film really
Just take it for what it is - an acid infused monty python sketch show
Worst movie ever
The best LSD movie ever
I think it’s hilarious, it’s like a monty python acid infused sketch show
In the Magical Mystery Tour British Television Special, Mal Evans is in the Wizard sequence more than Beatle George Harrison!
