When Exactly Did Robert Zemeckis Lose His Mind?

Now, I'm happy that Peter Serafinowicz is getting work.  Really, I am.  He's a genuinely talented, genuinely funny, genuinely nice person who deserves every ounce of the success that is coming his way.  But a motion captured remake of Yellow Submarine?  Ick.  Just ick.

I eagerly await the day that the Robert Zemeckis who made Back To The Future and Who Framed Roger Rabbit while helping launch the career of Peter Jackson comes back to beat this 'new and improved' Zemeckis about the head and shoulders with a hammer.
