Here's a place where you can discuss the great parody artist and your favorite videos of his. And if you are not familiar with the artist here's some of his work: [youtube:fqz1ojIQTBk] A parody of "Bad" by Micheal Jackson.
White & Nerdy was one of his best parodies (that actually charted). Trapped in the Drive-Thru was funny as hell. Fat and Eat It was great (especially to the fact that MJ himself allowed Weird Al to parody them, and he let him use the set of Bad he used for Moonwalker film for the Fat vid!)
His movie sucked. Some of his parodies are funny, others are just...... meh. @Sylverstone: Well, all the artists let him make the parodies. I saw an interview with him on TV a few years ago, he said that the law doesn't require permission from the original artist if you want to make a parody, but he does it anyway so he doesn't offend anyone.
The Game.
Is it after 9PM EST? You should probably ignore the above post.
We caught a ride back to Naboo 'Cause Queen Amidala wanted to I frankly would've liked to stay We all fought in that epic war And it wasn't long at all before Little hotshot flew his plane and saved the day And in the end some Gungans died Some ships blew up and some pilots fried A lot of folks were croakin' The battle droids were broken And the Jedi I admire most Met up with Darth Maul and now he's toast Well, I'm still here and he's a ghost I guess I'll train this boy

While his work is hit and miss with a 75% hit rate he has inspired too many unfunny people to try and make their own parodies. But seeing as none have ever been successful and the 'parodies' created are only on the darkest corners of the internet I don't hold it against him. Still he must be applauded for making terrible songs bearable.
