4. Master Exploder Tenacious D In The Pick Of Destiny
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80DtQD5BQ_A Another Jack Black film, but on a different key to School of Rock. Also starring Kyle Gass, Tenacious D In The Pick of Destiny is a 2006 musical comedy film, about two down-and-out musicians who team up to find a legendary plectrum made out of one of Satan's teeth. The film features numerous musical performances and cameos from famous musicians Ronnie James Dio, Dave Grohl, Meat Loaf and more. The focus of the film is on the two central protagonists JB and KG, played by Black and Gass respectively. Their musicianship, friendship and search for The Pick of Destiny forms the story for the film, and there are some hilarious moment throughout. One of the funniest scenes is a dream sequence, in which JB imagines an extremely well-received performance on stage in a bar. The scene is based on the song Master Exploder, which Jack Black and Kyle Gass genuinely wrote and performed (and released), and makes a brilliant impromptu music scene. Notable moments include a literally blown-mind, a six-armed KG, bizarrely shaped guitars and Jack Black turned up to 11.
