I might watch it, but is anyone else getting tired of people using biopics as cheap shots for awards recognition, especially in acting?

[ginainabottle]

Even when I like the person the story is about, I usually hate biopics.

I was just ranting about biopics last night to my best friend so yes haha

[mhfromnh]

I mean, this is a parody biopic

[zoaster_toaster]

I was talking more in general but I'll allow the Al one because I expect nothing less than a Walk Hard-style movie about his life.

I'm very tired of biopics and it kind of makes actors look desperate bc they're all obvious awards bait.

That being said, this biopic is the only one I care about and want good things for.

[zoaster_toaster]

Yeah I was talking more in generalities, not about Al.

[lcganlerman]

yeah but also this one isn't award bait, it's a parody so I'm hoping it's fun and fresh

[pin_stripe]

yeah, i'm sick of them

Yes! It feels like it’s either a bio-pic or a war movie and if we’re really unlucky a bio pic set during war time
