Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny
As we all know, the comedian Jack Black with a big belly is a rock and roll, and his achievements in movies are far greater than music. Although he did not make a name for himself in the music industry, he made an autobiographical film based on his band- " Tenacious D ", that is, this film.

I don’t think the plot is exciting
Simple plot, close-up of simple characters, characters are ordinary people, the plot is quite absurd at the end. However, it illustrates a very realistic problem for us now. Not to mention being proud of China, but abroad, rock is not as popular as we imagined, only some pop and rock will be popular. Rock, I think everyone in rock should have a rock spirit. He is the driving force of our lives, a weapon to break through the old, boring, shackles.... Everyone is the god of rock and...

The possibility of an impractical pick
The composition of the story is actually very simple. It is the story of two big metal guys pursuing their metal dreams through a weird pick.
Compared to Jack’s previous rock school, this work is indeed inferior. But there are also some funny scenes, I can't spoil them haha.
To be honest, the moment the bald man took off the wig, I suddenly felt that the wig was very lifelike, and suddenly there was no smell of the metal guy. When Jack was about to leave Kyle, I saw the light... -

I like JB's voice, and I
play the ghostly guitar well.
He is the most talented man in comedy among rock singers.
He is the most like a rock singer among comedians.
But how is this film a bit like an adult fairy tale. Early this morning, I was planning to see something interesting with my brother, so I found it. Depressed to death.
But the songs in it listen to me violently~ I haven't bought the original soundtrack of this movie yet....

Open Mic Host: We've got one spot left. You guys got any new material?
JB: What we got's gonna turn your brain into shit.

JB: [referring to tenac] I looked it up in the dictionary... it wasn't in there.

JB: [narrating in song] A long-ass fuckin' time ago in a town called Kickapoo / There lived a humble family religious through and through / But yea there was a black sheep and he knew just what to do / His name was young JB and he refused to step in line / A vision he did see of fucking rocking all the time / He wrote a tasty jam and all the planets did align...
[young JB enters playing a guitar]
Lil' JB: [singing] Oh, the dragon's balls were blazin' as I stepped into his cave / Then I sliced his fucking cockles with my long and shiny blade / 'Twas I who fucked the dragon, fuckalye sing fuckaloo / And if you try to fuck with me then I shall fuck you too / Gotta get it on in the party zone / I gotsta shoot a load in party zone / Gotta lick a toad in the party zone / Gotta suck a choad in the party zone!
[Jack's father takes him to his room and spanks him with his belt. A guitar riff is heard starting]
Jack's Father: [singing] You disobeyed my orders son, why were you ever born? / Your brother's ten times better than you, Jesus loves him more / This music that you've played for us comes from the depths of Hell / Rock 'n' roll's the Devil's work, he wants you to rebel.
[begins to tear down JB's rock 'n' roll posters]
Jack's Father: You'll become a mindless puppet! Beelzebub will pull the strings! / Your heart will lose direction and chaos it will bring / You better shut your mouth, you better watch your tone / You're grounded for a week with no telephone / Don't let me hear ya cry, don't let me hear ya moan / You gotta praise the Lord when you're in my home!
[Dad storms out, leaving only one poster: Ronnie James Dio]
Lil' JB: [singing to the poster] Dio, can you hear me? I am lost and so alone / I'm asking for your guidance, won't you come down from your throne? / I need a tight compadre who will teach me how to rock / My father thinks you're evil, but, man, he can suck a cock / Rock is not the Devil's work, it's magical and rad / I'll never rock as long as I am stuck here with my dad.
[the poster comes to life]
Ronnie James Dio: [singing] I hear you brave young Jables, you are hungry for the rock / But to learn the ancient methods, secret doors you must unlock / Escape your father's clutches in this oppressive neighborhood / On a journey you must go to find the land of Hollywood / In the City of Fallen Angels, where the ocean meets the sand / You will form a strong alliance and the world's most awesome band / To find your fame and fortune, through the valley you must walk / You will face your inner demons, now go my son and ROCK!
[JB jumps out the window and runs away from home]
JB: [narrating in song] So he bailed from fucking Kickapoo with hunger in his heart / And he journeyed far and wide to find the secrets of his art / But in the end he knew that he would find his counterpart / Rock! / Rah-ha-ha-ha-hock / Rah-ha-ha-ha-ha...
[babbles]
JB: Rock!
