Can we talk about how well Walk Hard nailed the part in the studio where he wanted 10,000 didgeridoos? Even better that it came out well before Love and Mercy did its take on the Good Vibrations sessions. I know it was already a famous footnote in pop music history but it really looks like a parody of a movie years from release at that point.

Walk Hard and Popstar: Never Stop Stopping are 1A and 1B best comedies of the last 15 years

Walk hard is so good. It basically ended the biopic got a decade because it parodied it so well.

Every single line in the movie is a punchline and there’s so many Easter eggs in it if you’re into music history stuff

How come no one ever asks Bob Dylan why he sounds like Desey Cox?

uh, there was an ABC-TV Beach Boys mini-series that won an Emmy. It came out 6 years before Walk Hard. Pretty sure that is where they wrote that scene from

Love and Mercy


Underrated imho. I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would.

When I first showed it to a friend we had to watch it twice because she was laughing over the lines. Literally every line of dialogue is a punchline like you said. It's brilliant

It’s been one of the most quoted movies in my friend group since it came out and we still find new things that we find hilarious on rewatches now

There was an oral history about it that came out not long ago on the ringer I’d highly recommend. The amount of work they put into making the music and making the music funny is amazing. There were 100s of other songs they wrote and produced to varying levels that never made the final cut

They went on tour leading up to the release, or during the theatrical run, and that would be one of the things I would go back and do if I had a time machine
