Yes. I definitely got a Rupert/Travis vibe. Funnily my brother just watched both for the first time. Enjoyed them both and he and his girlfriend cringed a lot at Rupert especially.
Rupert Pupkin was one of De Niro’s best roles (along with Travis Bickle) and for me at least, The King of Comedy is criminally underappreciated.
