Hilarious Faux Trailer for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story
Funny or Die usually has some flops on their websites, but sometimes they can pull something out of their talented hat and create something spectacular like this. If this was a real movie, I would definitely be purchasing a ticket. Weird Al Yankovic was probably a big musical influence of mine back in the days of elementary/middle school, who knows why, but the man can parody like nobody’s business. Aaron Paul stars as Weird Al Yankovic in this imaginative biopic. This is pretty much genius and if only this could actually turn into a real film. Gary Cole as Mr. Yankovic just puts the icing on the cake. Keep reading after the jump to watch the trailer for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story!

A creative enthusiast, who didn’t even go to school for film, can attribute his ridiculous hobby of film to spending too many hours watching horror and superhero flicks. A degree in advertising has lead him into a path toward film/film news/film reviews all in a short period of time post graduating. With the push to randomly start a blog, thanks to the help of his friend Megan, due to his consistent posting of film news and fun videos he joined the blogging world. Keeping updated with all the latest film news and seeing as many movies as possible, Tyler has developed a knack of knowing way too much in the film world and probably annoys his friend with his insistent blabber of his love for movies. Joining SoundOnSight, Tyler hopes to share his film opinions and criticisms out to the world.
