Weird: The Al Yankovic Story REACTION - I'm no "Weird Al Historian".... But... this is SO ACCURATE! 

In reality, Al's parents were actually supportive of his music, and they even got him started on the accordion.

how could a movie about weird al NOT be a parody? Also dan radcliffe was perfect for this roll and i love him.

This is not only a parody of Weird Al's history, it's also a parody of music bio-pics.

RIP weird al. He was the greatest. This is one of the most most accurate biopics ever made. In seriousness the more you know about Weird Al the funnier this movie is. Al was born to a loving family in Lynnwood California. He doesn't do, nor has he ever done any drugs. And is a Vegetarian. Hes still alive and well, and I have heard hes one of the nicest people in the music industry. He is extremely well spoken, and has a great sense of humor.

Madonna quitting the music industry to run the cartel is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen in my life.

John Deacon plays the bass in Queen and wrote 'Another one Bites the Dust.'

I remember the day Weird Al died. Nearly 40 years later I still feel the pain.

LMAO. I just watched it yesterday and as soon as the mom made the comment about him not being himself, I was like, okay so this is a parody. Got it! So funny for no reason. hahaha.

I started off not knowing it was a parody of a biopic either, this movie was so fucking stupid, I loved it

I nearly busted a rib watching you react to this! Never knew this movie existed 'til now!

One of my favorite parts of this is that they filmed the entire thing in 14 days.

If you like this and walk hard, given your love of 99, Pop star Never Stop *Never Stopping has got to be on the list.

I actually thought Radcliff was really good. Dr. D was a show I used to listen to on Sunday nights as a kid in the 80s. I was allowed to listen it on AM as I went to sleep. This movie is SO silly and awesome.

The movie is largely as accurate as most biopics about famous musicians.

This is a documentary filmed in real time

Weird Al does Parodies of Songs....this movie is a parody of both Weird Al's life AND a parody of the biopic genre. Patton Oswaldt was supposed to play Dr. Demento, but broke his foot a day or two before filming. They called Rain Wilson in to do that part literally days before shooting started.

The urban legend you thinking of wasnt wired Al... it was Tom Leher

I remember when he sent a cassette into Doctor Dimento in San Francisco. He was playing his Accordion playing in the bathroom.

I'm not sure if you noticed, but when he was playing the Acordian at the polka party, every time it zoomed in on his hands, his arms were suddenly thicker and hairier 😂

i saw this last december shortly after it came out. this was so wierd Al. pardoy of his life, parody of movie biopics, parody of movies in general too.

16:46. I saw an interview. Al trolled us with a super long "unlikeable" song. Joke's on him!! 😂😂

It only just hit Prime over here in the UK. "Where is the line?" There was no line.

Conan looks like Edna from incredibles

"Madonna is still at large" line killed me.

Al was not a rocket scientist but he was and is very smart. He skipped a couple of grades, graduated valedictorian and got an architecture degree but his music career was taking off by then and he never became an architect

I love that the kids mock Al's cowardice by playing the Chicken Dance at him.

Albacurque wasn't recorded til the 90s great song but comes later

Wolfman jack was a dj for years then had a show called the midnight special he was known for that voice and his look

Fun fact, Al Yankovic isn't the first Al Yankovic to become a well known accordion player. No relation. But do look it up.

It’s a parody of a biopic! His parents were very supportive

No where near how he met Bermuda Swartz the drummer he met him on a TV show he beat on the accordian case while al played and sung

This movie is awesome. I love how most everything is a parody itself except for a few things of course like recording my bologna in a bathroom that was real and oh yes of course we all know Eat It Al’s first every totally original song made by him. Still feels weird having Michael Jackson parody it with beat it !!

Prince was adamant in not giving so permission to do any of his songs and am said he will honor him after his death and never do one

Well, he did record My Bologna in a bathroom.

He did get his first accordion from a door to door salesman. That much is true.

Did you know Florence Henderson, who played the matriarch Carol Brady on The Brady Bunch, plays the woman Al sings to in the music video of Amish Paradise?

he graduated with a degree in Archetecture

I was disappointed that there was no end-credit-scene showing him come down from that guacamole L S D trip.

Am was validictorian at his high school at 16 has a degree in architecture but that's a previous life

Beat it was the real song and eat it was the parody.

Hogan never gave out a Grammy either so why let the facts get in the way

I have only 1 problem with this movie, which is that they didn’t go back and show Michael Jackson parodying Fat.

Harry Potter who? This is daniel Radcliff defining role

WILD!!!! 😜 THANK YOU FOR SHARING 😊

I live in Lancaster, Pa. and we love Amish Paradise

True story.

Movie time

About 10-15% reality.

If you can't make when your record expec is you then you can't ever make it

Such a shame that they made the last minute decision to put this in the theaters. That decision caused the song in the closing credits to not be eligible for an Oscar.

kind of relevant but if you haven't seen The Resurrection of Jake the Snake just on your own chill time you should check it out one day

Have you seen UHF?

Locking daniel Radcliff in a closest ain't cool it might lead to a franchise but not cool

Evan Rachel Wood plays Madonna

Martin short is playing Salvador Dali

RIP to the greatest living creature that ever was or will be. Al "Jesus on Steroids" Yankovic, father, author, philanthropist, intergalactic explorer, medical miracle, godfather to thirteen squirrels, and the best d@mn cribbage player this world has ever seen

I just want Al and Madonna to become besties irl and stage secret performance act public sequels to this, and one day you just see one of them running down the street and the other one chasing them with a hammer or w/e, and Madonna has the eye patch. Everybody's living their lives and then you see Madonna just booking it
