Wierd al, great actor.....


Hey i was just wondring if anyone shares my opinion on wierd al.

I don't really like his music ( well i did when i was a kid , which is what first had me watching this movie 2 times a day. ). But i just picked up uhf again a few days ago and still find it awesome. Is anyone with me that weird al is funnier when he acts than when he sings?

He took acting lessons. He says that on the DVD commentary.

I personally think Wierd Al is a horrible actor (especially with his over excessive "Funny" faces that he milks alot), maybe it was because UHF was in the late '80s and that type of humor is funny back then.

He's acutually an amazing singer. You may not like his music but some of what he does takes amazing voice control and talent.

I don't know about him being a "great actor" but he's at least fun to watch in this.

He's not a great actor, But he's REALLY (I mean really) talented and smart. Whether it's music, movies, TV, whatever, the guy gets it done!

He was pretty epic in UHF
