I think the biggest thing stopping Weezer from duplicating that level of success is the fact that Rivers Cuomo just doesn't want to get that personal again. He was dealing with physical pain from surgery, being bipolar, feeling lonely and disillusioned with the rock star life etc etc, and that resulted in some really emotional material.

Good point, i never thought of it like that their later work does seem very unpersonal.
