Synopsis

Fans of the one and only ""Weird Al"" Yankovic have banded together to get the Grammy-winning funnyman one honor that has eluded him: induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Campaign organizer Greg Method traces the career of the parodist, talks to fans from around the world to see what makes them tick, and follows the development and economic impact of the Cleveland museum. It is equal parts exposé, tribute, and a call to arms in this unauthorized look at the MTV generation's greatest rock humorist.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
