Tenacious d: pick of destiny
 
I dunno, wasn't as great as i thought it would be but the duel with the devil was great, opinions?

sleepy jack 01-21-2007 02:23 PM

Overrated, their first album was better and even that got boring after a bit.

littleknowitall 01-21-2007 02:25 PM

I thought you said you liked it? :S

sleepy jack 01-21-2007 02:30 PM

I did for about a week.

ArtistInTheAmbulance 01-21-2007 03:28 PM

aha.
i logged in just to vote on this.
hatehatehatehatehate.
i would have voted for "overrated" cause it is.
but more than that, it is just ****.
if i want to laugh, ill go to tv, or to other things that are actually funny.
not jack black, clearly past his prime now, making awful jokes with awful music behind him.
blah.

littleknowitall 01-21-2007 04:26 PM

i dunno, classico was alright and beelzeboss made me chuckle, it wasn't great, far from what i was preying to god it'd be like but still.....it was ok if you ask me.

gottaSCREM 01-21-2007 04:55 PM

Over Rated it got boreing after a while.

swim 01-21-2007 04:57 PM

Jack Black isn't funny.

gottaSCREM 01-21-2007 04:58 PM

He was in Nacho Libre.

tdoc210 01-21-2007 05:52 PM

... not funny

Sparky 01-21-2007 06:33 PM

i think jack black is funny on screen, or when he's busy jumping around making an ass of himself. And i like his bald friend that always wears the cacky-shorts an plain t-shirt, he makes me laugh.

But honestly, the music bores me to tears...Mabey its all the 8 year old fans, or the non-stop advertising for it..but i just don't find it funny.

Jack Black actor=good


Jack Black anything else=bad

gottaSCREM 01-21-2007 06:55 PM

Agreed

littleknowitall 01-21-2007 07:50 PM

Heh, the jubs kyle gass pulls through the showdown with the devil are picture perfect, you can tell he's loving it.

_Alizer_ 01-24-2007 09:32 AM

Still can't decide what I thought of it. It was entertaining, and I enjoyed watching it, but whether that makes it a good film is debatable...y'know what I mean?

Urban Hat€monger ? 01-24-2007 11:23 AM

Jack Black has this amazing ability to make me want to slap around that pudgy face of his & scream at him 'WILL YOU JUST SHUT THE F*CK UP YOU ARE IN YOUR 30s FOR F*CK SAKE , START ACTING LIKE IT'

If you didn't laugh at that part in school of rock when Black asks that kid "You play bass?" "No, I play cello." "Well, turn it on it's side and cello! it's a bass."

Then you are simply not human.

DearJenny 01-24-2007 01:24 PM

^rofl(to Urban)

I liked it a lot. I thought it was pretty funny, especially the sasquatch part. oMg, "You already are JB, you're my little baby sas. Lets go for a dip in the Strawberry River!" HAHAHAHA. And the duel with the devil was pretty damn cool.

Sneer 01-24-2007 01:31 PM

jack black was funnier in 'the holiday', that speaks volumes about the pick of destiny.

DearJenny 01-24-2007 11:11 PM

^Ouch, yeah it does. I've just always liked him. A certain boyish charm.......or something. lol. Kyle Gass is funnier though. He's like the "silent bob" character of the duo, always in the background but good nonetheless.

Frances 01-25-2007 12:14 AM

Bah! Not funny. I used to live with a guy who played the first cd a lot, and laughed everytime. I have to think a joke is real funny to laugh at it after the 4th or fifth time (and I thought that was generous). It wasn't even very funny the first time.

littleknowitall 01-25-2007 06:17 AM

You can't consider a joke ****e because it wares off after it's been said over and over, everyone gets bored of comedy songs after a while...

blackTshirt 01-25-2007 08:04 AM

jack black is great
well i dunno what it's like for all of you who live in the states and you're probably gettin bored of him but i know that when i see him on tv i get really happy
and i like their music A LOT, never got bored of it
not only cause it sounds good and he's got talent but because it does make me giggle even after i listen to it like 10 times
and if you want jack black to act like he's 30 that's pretty sad really
this shouldn't even be discussed, it's a matter of taste and no one can convince anyone of anything

Sneer 01-25-2007 08:39 AM

he doesnt really have talent. He has an ok voice and some (not me) think he's a funny guy, they sell records by being idiots and making people laugh. I wouldnt call that talent.

DearJenny 01-25-2007 12:04 PM

^They're comedians! Thats what their aiming for. They're not doing this for artistic recognition.

ArtistInTheAmbulance 01-25-2007 01:02 PM

...but theyre not funny.
i dont mind the guy when hes acting. but when hes doing his own thing, i just want to smack his face in & shove it up his fannyhole, hes just NOT funny. >.<

even if they were funny, which their not, that wouldnt constitute to having talent, anybody can make people laugh, they just make a living off of it.

Merkaba 01-25-2007 01:59 PM

Good on them I say. The first time I heard Inward Singing and Drive Thru I nearly pissed myself. Now it's not as funny but the initial effect was still awesome. A couple of the music pieces weren't half bad either, and at least they mixed things up a bit. Variety on an album is a plus.

Although in saying that, Pick of Destiny I've listened to once, and I actually didn't really think too much of it. Perhaps I just wasn't in the mood for it or they really didn't pull it off this time around. I still think JB is pretty good, whether it's on the t.v or the stereo.

That's a matter of opinion, if you prefer more slapstick humour or dry humour and so on, Lee Evans is ****e if you ask me but i know plenty f people who think he's fantastic....i can't see how anyone would want to smash Jack blacks face in though, seems a bit over the top to me, just like your desperately trying to make sure everyone knows how much you hate him:confused:

I saw holiday with my English class, none of us could buy Jack Black as that sensitive romantic all we (at least I) kept thinking is the the guy from Tenacious D.

I did, but i saw it at the premiere up in Charlottesville. I was so fascinated wit the fact Morgan Freeman was there, laughing at the jokes, and any movie with a laughing Morgan Freeman in the audience is a winner in my book.

hardly, i've said i didnt find im funny twice, i dont think that constitutes me 'desperatly trying to make sure everyone knows how much i hate him', i call more 'responding to posts' and 'engaging in discussion'. and im well aware of the concept of personal opinion thankzzzz

DearJenny 02-06-2007 12:16 AM

Oh, and by the way, the BESTEST BEST part of the movie were the cameos by Meat Loaf and Dio. I mean, IMO.

skaman27 02-09-2007 04:18 PM

This albume is awesome. beelzeboss is the best

And the concept of sarcasm too so it seems, and it's not like i was having a go at you or anything, i just thought what you posted was a bit of an extreme.
