      Right? You’d be better off asking which movies wouldn’t be better? That’s a tricky question.

        UHF is the only movie that wouldn’t be better with Weird Al as the lead, because it’s already there.

      That would be interesting. Because he’d play it completely straight. You’d be expecting the joke, but, nope, it’s just that Weird Al is Aragorn.

        No, he plays the masks.

        Obviously the, ahem, climax is an orgy of Weird Als.

    If they remake Spy Hard like they did with Naked Gun, let him do the theme song and the lead role.

    Lot of interesting answers here, but for me, the obvious choice is “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”

      On their second channel, the Epic Rap Battles guys post reaction videos to suggested matchups. One of their dream matchups is Willy Wonka vs Pablo Escobar with Weird Al playing Wonka but they’re afraid he’d say no because of the gratuitous drug references that would be involved.

      I can picture Weird Al taking basically any role in that movie and enjoying it more.
