RW695 - Bonus - Weird: The Al Yankovic Story

 

In this bonus episode of The Rewatch Podcast, Cory and Eoghan somehow need to separate fact from fiction as they discuss the bio pic Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.

Trailer:

Our Favourite Trivia:

In 2010, Funny or Die released a fake trailer for a satirical biographical film titled Weird: The Al Yankovic Story directed by Eric Appel and starring Aaron Paul as musician "Weird Al" Yankovic. Additional co-stars in the three-minute-long trailer included Olivia Wilde as Madonna, Gary Cole and Mary Steenburgen as Yankovic's parents, and Patton Oswalt as Dr. Demento. Yankovic himself cameoed as a record producer. Yankovic would play the trailer on his concert tours leading some fans to think it was for a real feature film or encourage him to adapt it into one.

Studios passed on the idea of his biography being a spoof of musician biographies, not wanting to produce full on parodies. Yankovic and Appel played on common tropes, mostly amplifying the arbitrary changes to the true life story. They opted to retain the setting of the film within Yankovic's early career between 1979 and 1985, only going off this period for the inclusion of "Amish Paradise" from 1996 at the end of the film.


Yankovic and Appel were aware that Radcliffe was a fan of classic comedic musicians such as Tom Lehrer; for his part, Radcliffe felt that his November 2010 appearance on The Graham Norton Show, during which he sang a rendition of Lehrer's song "The Elements", was the reason for his casting.


As part of his preparation, Radcliffe learned the principles of playing the accordion, Yankovic's signature instrument, through video tutorials Yankovic had made for him. Radcliffe sang the songs live on camera while filming, but his vocals were replaced with pre-recorded ones by Yankovic in the final product. Yankovic and Appel would later express some regret over not letting Radcliffe perform his own vocals, given Radcliffe's Broadway background.


Some events in the film are based on facts from Yankovic's life: he did receive his first accordion from a traveling salesman; "My Bologna" was recorded in a public bathroom, though in real life, this was a bathroom across from the KCPR radio station offices; there has been a "Yankovic effect" in that being parodied by Yankovic helped boost the success of the original songs by other musicians, notably with Nirvana and Yankovic's parody "Smells Like Nirvana"; and Madonna did originally come up with the concept of Yankovic's parody "Like a Surgeon", which Yankovic had heard about and agreed was a good idea.


It was actually "My Bologna" that got 'Weird Al' Yankovic a record deal. In mid-1979, Dr. Demento helped popularize "My Bologna" after receiving a tape from Weird Al, whose music he already knew and promoted due to a 1976 encounter. Dr. Demento played "My Bologna" on his radio show to good response from listeners. So when Yankovic met The Knack after a show at his college and introduced himself as the author of "My Bologna", the band knew what he was talking about. The Knack's lead singer, Doug Fieger, said he liked the song and suggested that Capitol Records vice president Rupert Perry release it as a single. The label gave Yankovic a six-month recording contract and released it as a single.


'Weird Al' Yankovic really did perform "Another One Rides the Bus" for a major audience for the first time in the presence of Dr. Demento. In addition, his percussionist Jon improvising and using an accordion case also happened, just not in the way portrayed in the film with the entire song being improvised on the spot. In reality, on September 14, 1980 Yankovic was a guest on the Dr. Demento Show, where he was to record a new parody live. The song was "Another One Rides the Bus", a parody of Queen's hit "Another One Bites the Dust." While practicing the song outside the sound booth he met Jon Schwartz ("Bermuda"), who told him he was a drummer and agreed to bang on Yankovic's accordion case to help Yankovic keep a steady beat during the song. They rehearsed the song just a few times before the show began.

Al never smoked, drank, or did drugs. One of his college buddies claimed if they had got him to do any of that, he might turn "normal."


Even though Weird is a parody, the filmmakers sought to cast actors known primarily for dramatic roles. Appel believed the humor would then come from the actors playing their roles in a serious, grounded manner, as if they were in a dramatic biopic, despite the absurdity of the scenes.


Yankovic reached out to his "holiday card mailing list" to bring a number of celebrities to cameo in the film, most shown during the Dr. Demento pool party scene. While the script called for Al to be challenged by Freddie Mercury at the pool party, terms of Yankovic's agreement with the band Queen for "Another One Rides the Bus" said that Yankovic could not mention Mercury. They reached out to The Lonely Island (Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone) to appear as the other members of Queen instead, but while Samberg was unavailable, Schaffer and Taccone still wanted to participate in the film, and were cast as Alice Cooper and Pee-wee Herman, respectively. David Dastmalchian was eventually cast as bassist John Deacon. Lin-Manuel Miranda contacted Yankovic within minutes of the announcement of the film's production, requesting a role.


Guests at Dr. Demento's pool party include Devo, Frank Zappa, Salvador DalĂ­, Andy Warhol, Tiny Tim, Pee-wee Herman (Paul Reubens), David Bowie, Gallagher, Wolfman Jack, John Deacon, John Denver, Divine, Elton John, Elvira (Cassandra Peterson), Alice Cooper, Grace Jones, and Kate Pierson.


Devo is present at Dr. Demento's pool party. Though Al never directly parodied one of their songs, his song 'Dare to be Stupid' is a "style parody" of Devo's sound, and Devo's song "Jocko Homo" is the first song in "Polkas on 45", 'Weird Al' Yankovic's first released polka medley.


During the pool party, Andy Warhol (played by Conan O'Brien) comments on the future of 'Weird Al' Yankovic by saying, "I give him 15 minutes." This is a reference to the famous saying (misattributed to Andy Warhol) that, in the future, everybody will be world-famous for at least 15 minutes.


Patton Oswalt, who played Dr. Demento in the original short, had been set to play this role in the film, but he broke his foot shortly before shooting began, and due to the tight schedule, the production could not afford to wait. They were able to bring in Rainn Wilson to play the role three days before filming commenced. Oswalt was still able to cameo in the film as a heckler in a bar. Aaron Paul, who played Yankovic in the original short, had been set to cameo as the said bar heckler, but he came down with COVID-19 during the filming period and was unable to participate.


Dr. Demento's pool party draws inspiration from a similar scene in the film Boogie Nights (1997), while Al being arrested onstage is based on the 1969 incident with The Doors frontman Jim Morrison during a concert in Miami. The end-credits scene includes a parody of Carrie (1976), in which Madonna comes to visit Al's grave, only to be grabbed at the wrist by a zombified arm.


The film's soundtrack was released the same day as the film's release. Regardless of the lyrics in Weird Al’s original track “Now You Know” for the end credits, the film did not get a full theatrical release, therefore was not eligible for the 95th Academy Awards. It was, however, eligible for the 75th Prime Time Emmy Awards.


When looking at the flyers for band auditions, one flyer is advertising "Kuni's Karate School." Kuni was a character from 'Weird Al' Yankovic's The Vidiot from UHF (1989) who ran a karate school and berated his pupils for being "stupid."

RW694 - Naked Gun Rewatch - The Naked Gun (2025)

 

In this episode of The Naked Gun Rewatch, Cory and Eoghan return to Police Squad for some classic deadpan comedy as they discuss The Naked Gun (2025).

Trailer:

Our Favourite Trivia:

In 2009 it was revealed that a fourth film starring Leslie Nielsen was planned as a direct-to-TV sequel, titled The Naked Gun: What 4? The Rhythm of Evil. The script followed the story of Frank training a young rookie. The script was developed by Alan Spencer, best known for the series Sledge Hammer!, and was briefly moved to theatrical development where the Zucker Abrahams Zucker team attempted to stop it. Spencer wrote a sizable role for Leslie Nielsen, who would be passing the torch to a new generation of incompetent police, but Paramount asked him to reduce the part to a cameo for budgetary reasons, and later decided to remove his character altogether. After this last request, Spencer left the project. Nielsen died in November 2010.


In December 2013, Paramount Pictures announced that a reboot of The Naked Gun franchise was in development with Ed Helms cast in the role of Frank Drebin, while the script was being co-written by Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant. By January 2014, Garant revealed that the working title of the project was Episode IV: A New Hope, while announcing that it was intended to be a sequel to the original films. Helms was intended to portray a character that introduces himself as "Frank Drebin, no relation" so that the movie can introduce a new protagonist without contradicting what came before. In March 2015, David Zucker stated that he was offered a producing role on the project, but had declined to be involved because he felt like it would differ in comedic style and ultimately be inferior to his original films. In August 2015, Helms confirmed that the script was still being written, while acknowledging the concerns that Zucker had with modern-day audience reception, and a need for something other than the spoof genre of the previous movies.


By March 2017, a re-write of the script was being completed by David Zucker and Pat Proft, with the plot being reworked to feature the son of Frank Drebin, who would have been a secret agent rather than a policeman. The script was originally titled The Naked Gun 444 1/4: Nordberg Did It, but was later renamed Naked: Impossible, parodying the Mission: Impossible, Bourne and Daniel Craig James Bond franchises. Zucker felt that "they don't make cop movies anymore. When you do parody, you've got to spoof something current." According to Zucker, Jon Gonda at Paramount liked the script, written by him and Pat Proft that was presented to the studio in 2018, but that somewhere along the line the studio decided not to go with it. Zucker also said that he went on a meeting with Paramount in around 2019, where a female head of production complained over a "mild" joke about a "police officer having to adjust her Kevlar vest or have a breast reduction". He explained saying that a "stupid, mild joke" was too much for them [Paramount].


In January 2021, it was announced that Seth MacFarlane had been hired to further develop the project. After MacFarlane had previously expressed interest in casting Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr. in 2015, he was hired by the studio. MacFarlane and Paramount approached Neeson with a pitch to star in the movie. In June, Neeson said MacFarlane was working on a new draft of the script, with the studio additionally negotiating his potential role as director. In October 2022, the film was greenlit with Neeson in the lead role as Frank Drebin Jr. and Akiva Schaffer directing.


In April 2024, Pamela Anderson joined the cast. Anderson was originally offered the role of Tanya Peters in The Final Insult before the role eventually went to Anna Nicole Smith. In May, Paul Walter Hauser joined the cast, playing Capt. Ed Hocken, alongside Kevin Durand in an undisclosed villain role, as well as Danny Huston, Liza Koshy, Cody Rhodes, CCH Pounder and Busta Rhymes.


On a budget of $42 million it made a global box office of $102.1 million.


Aside from the still photos, Priscilla Presley and "Weird Al" Yankovic are the only actors to appear in all four films in the Naked Gun franchise.


The scene where the snowman comes to life is set to the tune of "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship. The song was originally used in the movie Mannequin (1987), which was about a mannequin coming to life.

RW693 - Scream Rewatch - Scream 7

 

In this episode of The Scream Rewatch, Cory and Eoghan know that home is where the heart is as they discuss Scream 7.

Trailer:

Our Favourite Trivia:

Both Bettinelli-Olpin and co-director Tyler Gillett previously expressed interest in bringing Neve Campbell's character Sidney Prescott back in future sequels, after Campbell declined to return in Scream VI due to a pay dispute with the film's producers.


Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett exited the project due to scheduling conflicts with their film Abigail (2024). Christopher Landon was hired in their place, on recommendation from Kevin Williamson who remembered Landon from his days as an intern on the first Scream (1996). That same month, pre-production was suspended due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.


Melissa Barrera was fired from the seventh film due to her comments about the Gaza war. The following day, Jenna Ortega was reported to not reprise the role due to scheduling conflicts with the second season of the Netflix television series Wednesday (2025). Ortega later refuted this, stating in an April 2025 interview that she left due to the changes in the creative team and cast.


It was then reported that the film would go through a creative retooling, with the intention of bringing back other actors from the franchise, like Campbell, along with Patrick Dempsey, who portrayed Mark Kincaid in Scream 3 (2000). In December 2023, Landon announced that he had officially exited the film weeks prior. He later explained he felt without Barrera the film he had signed on to direct no longer existed, and therefore there was no reason for him to continue. 


In March 2024, Campbell posted on her Instagram account that she would return as Sidney. She also confirmed that Kevin Williamson, writer and producer of previous Scream films, would direct. Dempsey said scheduling conflicts and the California wildfires prevented him from joining the film.


Although Kevin Williamson has taken the directing chair, Guy Busick and James Vanderbilt return as writers from the previous 2 installments. 


The film was scored by Marco Beltrami, returning from the first four installments. The film also features five original songs, including "Twisting the Knife" by Ice Nine Kills (ft. Mckenna Grace).

RW692 - Kevin Williamson Rewatch - Sick


In this episode of the Kevin Williamson Rewatch (or backfill), Cory and Eoghan are safe at the cabin by the lake as they discuss Sick.

Trailer:

Our Favourite Trivia:

In May 2021, it was announced that Miramax greenlit the film with Kevin Williamson and Katelyn Crabb attached to write, along with John Hyams to direct, and Gideon Adlon to star.


Principal photography was completed in mid-2021 in and around Weber County, Utah.


Sick premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 11, 2022. The film was released on Peacock on January 13, 2023.


The film has several references to the Friday the 13th franchise, including the film's primary location being at a cabin by the lake, a scene of a knife stabbing through boards, and the mother being named Pamela. Her husband is also named Jason but isn’t said in the final film.


The film also references Scream. The opening kill went to a child actor from a Spielberg production; Drew Barrymore was in ET: The Extraterrestrial and Joel Courtney was the lead of Super 8, the killer mistakenly believes that Miri is dead after her fall, just like Gale Weathers, and when Parker thinks she finds someone to help, the killer quickly strikes with a throat cut.


Between Scream and The Faculty, writer Kevin Williamson gender flipped the name Casey from Drew Barrymore to Elijah Wood’s character. He may have done the same with Parker from Urban Legend. While he didn’t write that film, the character was played by Michael Rosenbaum who was in Cursed. Also, the urban legend told by DJ about the baby and the snake was formerly used in Dawson Creek S01E11 “The Scare” written by Kevin Williamson.


Scream (2022) premiered a year earlier, produced by Kevin Williams, and also ended with one of the killers being set on fire, this is also how Halloween II ended.


The black outfit worn by the killers is similar to the killer in Prom Night.


Other isolation horror films that match this style include Straw Dogs, Black Christmas, The Mutilator, Ghostkeeper, Scream, The Strangers, You’re Next, and Hush.


The song used in the Instagram post and used by the killers as a taunt is “A Little Respect” by Erasure.

Kevin Williamson takes the directing chair to run us into a new era with Scream 7.

RW691 - Kevin Williamson Rewatch - Cursed

 

In this episode of the Kevin Williamson Rewatch (or backfill), Cory and Eoghan have a beastly appetite as they discuss Cursed.

Trailer:

Our Favourite Trivia:

The first draft of the script was written by Kevin Williamson in August 2000 and followed the exploits of a New York City serial killer who discovers that his lethal tendencies are due to his lycanthrope nature. Both screenwriters Sean Hood and Tony Gayton did rewrites of Williamson's original script during the development process.


After filming Vampire in Brooklyn, Wes Craven was attached to direct a werewolf film called Bad Moon Rising, but its funding was cut by Miramax just 10 days before filming began. Wes was ultimately pressured into signing on for Cursed, with press releases calling Craven and Williamson a “dynamic team” that would “reinvent the werewolf genre.”


Jesse Eisenberg was the first lead cast, with Kristina Anapau and Judy Greer cast in supporting roles. Christina Ricci was cast as Ellie, and Skeet Ulrich was cast as Vince Winston, a millionaire's son. The original story revolved around the 3 leads being brought together after a car accident in the Hollywood Hills and they’re attacked by a werewolf. 


Scott Foley was cast as Ellie’s boyfriend Kyle, and Omar Epps was cast as the chief of animal control, Ben. Other cast members included James Brolin as Vince’s father, Milo Ventimiglia, Shannon Elizabeth, Illeana Douglas, Robert Forster, Heather Langenkamp and John C. McGinley. Scott Baio and Corey Feldman were cast to play themselves, and Mandy Moore was cast to be the opening kill in a parking garage.


With a budget of $35 million, the film shot for 54 days, and with only 6 days left to shoot the final scene in the wax museum, Dimension executives shut down the production as they did not like the ending or Rick Baker's creature effects. 


They took the film back to the development phase and the decision was made to retool the script. They briefly considered making Jimmy and his father (John C. McGinley) werewolf hunters, but instead did more extensive rewrites; Ellie and Jimmy became siblings, Vince became the mysterious love interest (renamed Jake), and Kyle became her assistant. Scott Foley dropped out and was replaced with Michael Rosenbaum, and ultimately Skeet Ulrich was unsatisfied with his character change, causing him to leave and be replaced by Joshua Jackson. Mandy Moore was replaced with Mya, and the scene was moved from opening kill to mid movie. James Brolin, Robert Forster, Corey Feldman, Omar Epps, Heather Langenkamp and John C. McGinley were all written out from the new version of the script and could not reprise their roles. Rick Baker also dropped out due to scheduling conflicts and he was replaced by KNB EFX under Greg Nicotero.


After the extensive reshoots, and the addition of a new ending with a tragic scene of Jake begging Ellie to kill him to end his curse, it tested well with audiences. Dimension Films was still dissatisfied and ordered a new ending to be shot over 20 days to cast Jake as the main villain, and then a further 10 days of reshoots, at which point the cast and crew had shirts made that read “Cursed 4: Back for More.” The final budget was reported to be $90-100 million. 


Editor Patrick Lussier was supposed to work on the film for only six weeks in summer 2003, but ended up working on it for 19 months. He also worked as a second unit director during the extensive reshoots. All of Rick Baker's designs were cut and most of KNB practical effects were replaced by CGI, including Judy Greer's transformation. Nevertheless, Rick Baker's name was displayed in the opening credits as the sole special makeup effects designer and creator.


In the fall of 2004, Dimension Films cut the film to a PG-13 rating instead of the planned R rating. Speaking to the New York Post, Craven commented, "The contract called for us to make an R-rated film. We did. It was a very difficult process. Then it was basically taken away from us and cut to PG-13 and ruined. It was two years of very difficult work and almost 100 days of shooting of various versions. Then at the very end, it was chopped up and the studio thought they could make more with a PG-13 movie, and trashed it ... I thought it was completely disrespectful, and it hurt them too, and it was like they shot themselves in the foot with a shotgun."Jenny's death scene in the elevator was originally much gorier, her dead body shown with her belly ripped apart, although not even the R-rated DVD version included this scene. A picture of her mutilated body was, however, shown in a Fangoria article published before the film's release covering the infamously troubled production. Craven and Lussier would move on to Red Eye, and during that film's post-production they would learn that Cursed would be edited down to accommodate a PG-13 rating. A nightmare sequence featuring Jake's throat getting ripped out by Ellie was redone without Craven, instead with Joel Soisson serving as director.
