The legacy lives on. A recent installment of Rock Band features Beatles songs and only Beatles songs. Not quite coincidentally, the entire catalog has been remastered and was rereleased on CD the same day. And Robert Zemeckis announced a 2012 remake of Yellow Submarine in Motion Capture animation! <shudder> Maybe, if it's Beatles-approved, it'll be okay...
In 1966 John Lennon gave an ill-thought-out comment that The Beatles, had gotten "more popular than Jesus." He promptly apologized for it, but it didn't help. It was taken out of context by the press, and many modern fans take comfort that John didn't think the Beatles were more important than Jesus; but if you were the kind of "thick-headed disciple" who would burn Beatles albums over this, then the context — his thoughts on the state of Christianity — would not be much comfort. Anyhow, in 2008, the Vatican admitted that he had a point.
