Ringo and I are gettin' married to each other. But that's a thing you better keep a secret. People’d probably think we're queers.
-George Harrison
Full quote:
GEORGE: Ringo and I are getting married.
RINGO: Oh? To whom?
GEORGE: To each other. But that's a thing you'd better keep a secret.
RINGO: You better not tell anybody.
GEORGE: I mean, if we said something like that, people'd probably think we're queers. After all, that's not the sort of thing you can put in a reputable magazine like PLAYBOY. And anyway, we don't want to start the rumor going.

I've never seen anyone collect different Beatles resources all in one place, so I thought it would be nice to create a masterpost for newer or less research savvy Beatles fans looking for where to find them and learn more
Included below are Beatles movies, autobiographies, biographies, magazines, miscellaneous files, archive sites, and much more
This is by no means a comprehensive list of Beatles resources, as there is an often overwhelming amount of sources relating to and informative about the Beatles; this is simply a post to gather more important, prominent, and larger Beatle related texts and media together, as I would love for the online Beatles fan community to be more organized in its research and archive efforts
This is an extremely long post, enjoy!
*PLEASE READ DISCLAIMERS*
This post does not include links to Beatles music videos or where to listen to their music; however, I highly recommend listening to the updated remasters of The Beatles' albums done by Giles Martin, George Martin's son (the remasters done AFTER 2009) instead of the 2009 remasters when possible
There is a plethora of misinformation online about The Beatles so PLEASE do your own research, using reliable sources
Some sources have disclaimers attached, in case I believe they may to any degree be misleading or require additional context
All sources have been listed within sections chronologically, not in order of importance
If at any point any of the hyperlinks are broken or are not working, let me know and I’ll try my best to fix or update them
Some of the literary sources here are no longer being published, which is why I’m happy to supply the links here to read them online. However, if they are still in print and you’re able, please go borrow them from your local public library! Some of the movies and documentaries linked below can also be found on streaming or bought online; they are linked below for those unable to easily access them or for whatever other reason
There are some other important sources I could not find reuploads or scans of, but are still listed below in case someone is looking for more important sources
If I come across links to said sources I will edit this post and add them as hyperlinks. Additionally, if someone finds a working, safe link for anything listed without a link or for something they believe should be listed, they can message me and I'd be happy to add it

NOTE: Many beginner Beatles fans tend to read books written by authors Mark Lewisohn and Philip Norman as introductions to the Beatles; however, both of these authors can be incredibly biased for and against certain figures in Beatle history and require often hefty amounts of context to properly analyze them in an accurate manner, Norman in particular.

I LOVE RINGO STARR!!
YELLOW SUBMARINE (1969) Dir. George Dunning
just silly photos for the atmosphere of "help!"
and other days
The sketches I did during exams. Beatles were probably the only thing that helped me not cry so often. (sounds sadly but now everything is okay, it was my first exams and no one around knew what to expect then, that was stressful)
Learn about Paul is dead theory, about Pattie Boyd, she so pretty! About George leaving and his "left the beatles - went home". And old Paul and Ringo, my favourite, i love them so much...
two birds and two boys because i can
and some sketches
inspired by that photos of kakapo on drums!!
49 yo George said "hehe"
from Interview at Royal Albert Hall (April 6, 1992, MTV footage)
rewatched yellow submarine again in my sad mood about exams as i remember

My silly funkos sometimes bring them with me to my study, idk love them so much
translation: (look what i got...THIS!!! :³³)
