Making it 17+, changing cast and visuals don’t count. Let’s say it’s live action with heavy CGI. What would be here for the main attraction, the plot, the cast of characters?

    Why vitriol towards jack black more than the others? (Genuine question.)

      He killed Tenacious D mid-tour in an act of dick-riding for Donald Trump, while campaigning for Biden.

      Also Borderlands is shit, and his role as the voice of Claptrap took the spot of two talented voice actors who have already played the character across multiple games.

        He was in a tough situation. We need to remember the extent of right wing vitriol and hate. Anyone who speaks out against Trump gets death threats. Their concerts would have had protestors outside. Continuing the tour could have been a safety risk for their fans. I’m not saying cancelling everything was the right move, but it’s not as simple as “dick riding for Donald Trump.”

        Oh no, that sucks. Wait… he was campaigning for Biden but cancelled his tour to benefit Trump? Intentionally?

          Jack Black Cancels Tenacious D Tour and ‘All Future Creative Plans’ After Kyle Gass’ Remark on Trump Assassination Attempt

          The situation is rather complicated and it’s probably best to read for yourself, as I didn’t even know they had announced the band getting back together, possibly.

          Jack Black Says Tenacious D Will ‘Be Back’

          All this is coming from the guy who just that night sang:

          People inside me are asking me to blow up City Hall

          his partner on stage made a joke about his birthday wish being that next time the trump shooter doesn’t miss, and jack cancelled the tour over that. its debatable if this was actually intended to be in service of trump or if jack is just really against assassinations but the end result is that trump benefitted and the duo Tenacious D is no longer doing thier tour

            it was supposed to point out we don’t want political violence, but you know what, Trump’s been spewing hate for 20 years at least, and someone followed his advice. boo fucking hoo, don’t talk shit if you can’t take it. I stand with Kyle and not pandering shit, stand up for what you believe in. dick move by black.
