The Big Rock Off!

September 12th, 2007 • Barry's Imaginary Publisher

Dr Sharl and I got to see Tenacious D & The Pick Of Destiny on DVD last night. Good times, and funny as hell (eh heh heh):

Jack Black’s a genius! Must buy the soundtrack.

    You should see ‘em LIVE… it’s awesome. And reasonably similar too - starts off in their apartment, ends up in hell!! :-)

    There are complete live shows by Tenacious D at Archive.org
    Many of the shows are in the SHN format, but there are mp3s of some, too.

    In my opinion, God Awful Trash.

    Then again, Barry, I like “Billy the Mountain” so what do I know?

    Do you know that the evil is actually Dave Grohl? in the movie there is also Ronny James Dio, comin’ out from the poster, and Meat Loaf, father of young Jack Black, that - by the way - has a great voice!

    “Master exploder” is THE anthem, dudes!

    The album was pretty funny and catchy.

    This movie seems 4 or 5 years too late and seems pretty rushed and wildly unfunny. Lots of wasted opportunities.

    HOWEVER. Live, The D are fucking phenomenal. They can just stand there, not talking and be funny.

    Ew. I think this was a Tenacious D wipeout. BIG time.

    Not a great comedy, but it had it’s moments.
    I’m not really crazy about Tenacious D’s music
    and Jack Black is not a favorite of mine, but the
    songs they did in this movie were kind of funny.

    “The Complete Works” DVD is your best value, when it comes it the D.

    Balint, just withdraw your Testic… ( just like the Roman soldiers way back 2000 years ago).

    There’s more in the offer than this.
