Over done with 'celebrity' interviews


Other than giving us a chance to hear the songs that Neil Innes composed for the follow-up Rutles album "Archaeology" there isn't any need for this retread. I finally saw it entirely on YouTube and don't waste your time.

Does anybody care what Clint Black, Jewel or Robin Williams have to say about the Rutles? Or Roseanne Barr? Or Garry shandling? Huh?

And Eric cut out some of the best jokes from the first version to cram these modern day interviews in.

No mention of lots of events like where's the part of the Rutles playing Chea Stadium? Or Ron Nasty gobbing on God? And Rutles Corps isn't even MENTIONED in the film at all.

George Harrison's cameo gets wiped away to a single frame of film and Michael Palin's Press Officer and John Belushi as Allen Decline are completely exorcised.

Ron Wood as a Hell's Angel also is missing.

Instead we get Jimmy Fallon as the narrator's bastard child. Oh well. Shangri-la
