the details (via Variety Magazine):

Kyle Gass, true heart of the poster, put the tenacious in tenacious d, Jack Black, true pants of the pisser, put the money in his mouth and his whole ass in front of the camera

Since he appeared at the Biden fundraiser, I bet the biden staffers personally called him and threatened him until he gave in. Not that it would require much threatening.

yeah clearly someone threatened to cut off the gravy train

alexa, play ‘friendship’ by tenacious d

Friendship is rare
Do you know what I'm saying to you?
Friendship is rare
My derrière
When you find out much later that they don't really care

foreshadowing the payoff decades later

I know hypocrisy mongering is goofy, but 15 years ago Ted Nugent would go on stage and personally promise to shoot Obama. Also, surprisingly, people were still going to see Ted Nugent of all people

Based Kage, what the fuck JB

I gave up on Jack Black when he gaslit me into thinking he was doing arcade game content and it turned out to be an ad for Jumanji. It's a little embarrassing, but that shit hurt me.

Hollywood Jack betrayed the Rage Kage, just like their song

I saw them once, it sucked. Everybody else loved it, but it just felt incredibly... mechanical? Had a friend who worked backstage who told me they had a massive clock and whenever they ran off stage they would look at the clock to see how much of the show they had left (and also where in the show they were of course).
Very professional and very very very inpersonal. Doesn't have a whole lot to do with this, but just gotta say I've been disappointed by Jack Black since that concert years ago.

[-] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 32 points 3 months ago

To add to this, Jack Black just feels so early 2000s, South Park kinda edgy. The uncharismatic, unsmart white guy who ROCKS is so fucking tiring now.

Dude has huge youth pastor energy and somehow everyone eats it up

sorry to defend the lib but did the venue happen to have a curfew? I have had to do this before because I didn't want to get my band's set shut off mid song. some places are ridiculously strict about this (even giant places like Madison Square Garden can do this.)

What a fucking baby lmao

[-] Guamer@hexbear.net 22 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I think (at least partly) it's also cuz he's probably the biggest he's ever been in Hollywood rn with stuff like the Mario movie and doesn't wanna risk it.

I'll probably always like Black, he's made too much good stuff. But if Tenacious D truly dies over this, this is the biggest L of his entire career.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
