Tenacious D goes on hunger strike
November 4, 2003
Taking a page out of magician David Blaine's playbook, mock 'n roll group Tenacious D are planning a hunger strike for 45 days to help sell copies of their new DVD Tenacious D: The Complete Masterworks. Clad in superhero costumes sporting their trademark D [see the pic I added below] the portly twosome Jack Black and Kyle Gass vowed to lock themselves in a plexiglass box above Times Square until their DVD went platinum, world hunger is solved, or peace prevails in the Middle East.
The Complete Masterworks features live performance footage, HBO shorts, TV appearances, concert videos and footage of the duo in the studio recording "Wonderboy," "Tribute" and others. Jack and Kyle are also planning a full-length Tenacious D movie Tenacious D In The Pick Of Destiny due late next year.
The Complete Masterworks is available on DVD now. Of course, no one happened to mention to Jack and Kyle that DVDs don't go platinum!
The Jack Black Appreciation Thread
I have been a Tenacious D fan for a good couple of years now, and in that time, Jack Black has become a bona fide star. In this thread I wanted to talk about Jack, Kage, the D, Jack's movies, whatever.
Personally, I think that Jack is one of the funniest, cutest, and most talented performers out there. And his voice...incredible!
Any other fans out there?
😄
Total Jack Black fan here! Have you seen the trailer to Envy yet? Go to www.budweiser.com/1 You can watch it here. Jack Black meets poo (and Ben Stiller). Looks hilarious.
Yep Caballera, have seen the trailer for Envy a while ago, and I gotta say that it left me decidely underwhelmed. I love the idea of Ben Stiller and JB together, but for some reason I don't feel that this is the right material for them...I may be wrong, I just hope the trailer is misleading, and that it is better than the trailer suggests. Gotta dig Jables' wardrobe and hair in it though...😄
I can't wait, however for Tenacious D in :The Pick of Destiny, coming August 2005...am foaming at the mouth for that one!!!!! 😱

Tenacious D are brilliant! I get critiscised by my friends for playing Wonderboy and Tribute too much (and singing it but thats not the point)
Hate to say it, but if your friends do not understand the power of The D, then they are losers! 😄 You keep playing it as loudly as you want, and singing louder- I do. If you want to annoy people, Lee is a great one to pee people off with... 😈
I bet they don't listen to anything as good as the D- am I right? Are they Blue fans by any chance? 😱 😆

No, they love Tenacious D but they don't like to hear it over and over again.
