To Disney

You might find my new movie marathon irritating, but I'm fairly sure that I'm not stepping on your toes, and that none of this IP is Disney IP. I know you want the world to think you produced Get Back and the Eras tour; you didn't. Imagine isn't just a lark: all the rights holders to these films agreed. The BBC were just covering their arse over Surviving A War Zone. Why? Because people like you are sniffing around. The Tribal Eye fits in perfectly; the UK government is just pro-war in the Middle East. - To be blunt about how you've thrown your weight around: even if this music rights crap were true, it would only give Sony the rights to use Beatles songs for a movie, not Disney. It doesn't give you the right to prevent the Apple films from being used this way. Mr. Iger isn't richer than God: he's just a movie executive. Unfortunately for the war machine, promoting another view isn't illegal. - I'm not playing Paul. Please give up. Even if I didn't fluke it and become as wealthy as you on the back on an AI movie, I've got every right to refuse to act or sing for Disney because you're unable to find talent. You've ruined my life in so many ways that I'm not interested. Your idea of 'being fans since forever' was to kill the international release of my first film: Portrait of a Knight in 2018, even though it didn't legally infringe on Kate and Leopold. Why? Because it was better, and not just by a little bit. If Sondheim hadn't plugged it, nobody would have seen it. Perhaps you should have sought out classical and jazz musicians who could act? That's what we did to make musicals that worked. You can't guarantee my safety: the original lead actor was killed in a revenge scheme that you fully endorsed. The insurance premiums are probably insane. Fold your production; it's the only option remaining. Peter and Fran didn't put an ad in the trades on a lark

Stop using illegal methods to threaten me. Breaking into my room isn't legal. You can't justify it under 'I smell cannabis' - that cannabis could be medicinal. If it wasn't, then why am I not in hand

You're not getting, Mr. Iger. My voice is supposedly unique: I truly sound like a Beatle. We're relying upon it. I can overdub all the parts (if necessary) for our movie. I can't act. I can't master a Liverpool accent, and a bad version is worse. I'm only useful for the scripts I'm writing. If you'd come up with the tech, you'd have done it. One of our main objections to your vision is the use of AI to do 'new' Beatles content. This would destroy the initial context; all of us agree that the marathon is more important.

I've set a very clear wero: Mr. Iger and his Wellington allies must sit in a room with me. They must allow one opportunity to persuade me, and accept the result if I refuse. After ruining our lives for years, come to New Zealand and actually listen...
