Apparently two guys from Weezer are portraying members of The Velvet Underground for a new movie.

Seems like the Weezer boys are feeling pretty good about their try at "Heroin". "[Moe] Tucker did have an amazing feel," Bell said, "but she was no Pat, and Pat pulled out an ‘Only In Dreams' type crescendo that I think makes that aspect of the song better."
*falls over laughing* How egotistical can one get? Let's just say "Our version's even better than the original!" about a cult-status art-rock band. Idiots. I have to hear the new version of the song now so I can laugh even harder, but I can't find it. It's probably not released yet.
I'm with him. I like what Lou Reed had to say about the whole thing:
Patrick Wilson weighed in on the film's potential on his blog, stating, "the script is sweet and confidence is high that this movie wont [sic] suck."
Apparently the real Lou Reed thinks otherwise. "I read that script," Reed candidly told the New York Daily News. "It's one of the most disgusting, foul things I've seen - by any illiterate retard - in a long time. There's no limit to how low some people will go to write something to make money."
