WEIRD: The Weird Al Story

[Grom]

That was one of the greatest internet things ever. EVER.

[Big Spoon]

I was half-expecting the "No touching!" guard from AD to come in when Al and Nick hugged.

[Nerd42]

Aww man, for a second there, I thought Al was gonna make a parody film of the Michael Jackson movie from last year about himself. For probably 1.7 seconds.

I thought this was absolutely hilarious! I hesitated about posting it on my Facebook page, though, because most of my friends are not into Weird Al. I wondered if they would actually think this was for real, and get the wrong idea about Al's past. I posted it anyway, keeping my fingers crossed that my friends will "get it".

It was hilarious for me because I thought he would be poking fun at "This Is it" as well, with almost the exact same opening, but then, among all the other notables, they drop the real can'tbelievetheygother: MARY. FRAKKING. STEENBURGEN. I mean, HOLY CRAP! How was everyone signed on to do this????

And I love how it really takes you a second before you realize that Al is that agent! Props to the hair and makeup folks!

Wow! This was epic! I wish that it were real but alas, it was just a made up trailer. Great job, and I loved the sheer fact that Al made a cameo in this. Wait... did I read somewhere that people on facebook thought this was real?

[NMRodo]

This video just about made my night...Patton had the Dr. Demento VOCAL impersonation down pretty well also...I sort of doubt Al had that big of a hand in writing this, but still, great job...

Of course he did, Casey. Who else could create such an accurate portrayal of Al's life?

Olivia Wilde is like the last actress I would ever expect to take part in a mock Al biopic trailer (ok, besides Meryl Streep). She somehow managed to make herself even hotter by doing that.

That has to be, bar none, the best mainstream tribute Al has ever received. I loved it. And I actually thought it was the real Dr. Demento at first; I couldn't recognize Patton Oswalt at all.

[annacanada]

WOW! haha I love this! I wish it would become an actual movie!! I love the guy who plays Al- he's so unlike him. That deep voice gets me every time.
