Last night Brugos and I saw an advanced screening of Tenacious D's “The Pick Of Destiny”. The first 6 minutes are AMAZING. The end is also pretty damned good. The stuff in the middle? Eh. The opening scene is all sung, rock opera style, and features Meatloaf, Dio, and a little genius who plays a SPOT ON Jack Black (and who also apparently played young JB in Nacho Libre). When they sing, it's hilarious and engaging. When they stop singing, it looks like a crappy little low-budget comedy. I don't know why they didn't just go with a full-fledged rock opera. It could have been genius. Instead, it was mediocre. But I definitely recommend watching the opening scene, and then sneaking into another theatre to watch Borat again.
