Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007) - The Devil's Music Scene (2/10) | Movieclips

[@hejin57e77]

I love how this movie is so relevant to music biopics it predicted the future even with the new Elvis movie. Truly comedy movies like this are once in a lifetime.

[@N313GrayFox]

Or music biopics usually just follow a lot of the same tropes?

[@skinhead-ej8ff]

Disnt predict the future at all 🤣 it's a parody of walk the line?

[@underthetrees4780]

This was a parody of the Walk the Line, Johnny Cash biopic starring Joaquin Phoenix which came out a year or two early, but with the recent run of biopics it's returned to relevance, they're all the same.

[@danielhudson5186]

The Elvis movie pretty much had this very scene, when Elvis makes his debut.

[@nignamedmutt7270]

@@underthetrees4780 It's a parody of the whole genre. Every second of the movie is parodying a different biopic. Walk the line is the most explicitly parodied, but there's so much more to the movie than just that one film being parodied.

[@Gibbypastrami]

Walk the Line was really good, but that was PURELY because of Joaquin Phoenix' performance (well, the majority of the cast was good/great, but Phoenix is, well, he's one of the best actors in hollywood right now IMO) without him the movie would be completely forgotten because, its true, it fits the music biopic mold perfectly, didnt switch it up enough imo Straight Outta Compton is pretty much the best music bio tho
