Can Someone Give Me a List of Parodies in Walk Hard: Dewey Cox Story?
Question by Showstoppa: Can someone give me a list of parodies in Walk Hard: Dewey Cox Story?
Okay, the Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash parodies are pretty obvious. But can someone list the rest? For instance when he was tripping on LSD and made the song Black Sheep, who was the parody based on? I really love classic rock music, so it would be awesome to know. Thanks.
Great movie by the way!

You know, I saw the movie when it first came out and thought it was hilarious.
One of the funniest movies in a LONG time.
I remember thinking,
“Man, they’re making fun of eveyone!”
But it’s been so long…
I gotta get a copy and watch it again.
Just to refresh my memory.
Then I’ll get back to you.
