I love Weird Al...
- Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.
I LOVE UHF
I just got it again and surprisingly unlike a lot of the movies I loved as a kid it really holds up in adult terms too! It's awesome!
"Now it's time for...Wheel of Fish!"
"Oooooh, red snapper! Very tasty. Now, Miss Weaver, will you take the red snapper...or do you want to go for what's in the box that Tana-san is bringing down the aisle?"
(shouting from the audience follows)
"I'll...I'll take the box!"
"Let's see WHAT'S IN THE BOX!"
(box opens, it is completely empty)
"Nothing! Absolutely NOTHING! YOU SO STUPID!"

UHF was really funny, and I think he should stick with visual comedy like actoring, instead of his usual albums. Fine, the songs are technically funny, but there only so much that a song can do in terms of comedy. Stand-up is the only audio-only form that comes close, but even then, it's sometimes better to get the visual gags/expressions along with it.

Rosalina: You sure that's right?
Robert: I was going to HAVE told you they'd come?
Rosalina: No.
Robert: The subjunctive?
Rosalina: That's not the subjunctive.
Robert: I don't think the syntax has been invented yet.
Rosalina: It would have had to have had been.
Robert: Had to have...had...been? That can't be right.
