One of Jack Black’s Funniest Movies Is Streaming Totally Free

by

This summer, I’ve noticed a surge in the appreciation for Jack Black, largely due to “A Minecraft Movie”. It’s an excellent opportunity to delve into his past successes if you haven’t already. Fortunately, one of Black’s most iconic and personally resonant comedies is currently available to stream for free on Tubi. If you’re a fan of rock ‘n’ roll, laughter, and a dash of 2000s nostalgia, this underrated gem is definitely worth your time.

Currently, Tubi offers the movie titled “Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny“, which is a humorous fantasy featuring Black and Kyle Gass portraying fictionalized versions of themselves as members of their band, Tenacious D. In the film, Black’s character goes by Jables, or “J.B.”, while Gass’ character is named Kage, or “K.G.”. After running away from home in the Midwest in pursuit of rock stardom, J.B. encounters Kage in Hollywood. The story revolves around a legendary guitar pick that was once Satan’s property and has since been wielded by renowned rock musicians. In their quest for this artifact, J.B. and Kage join forces.

If you found it hard to believe or even absurd so far, you’re not the only one. The film Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny initially struggled with audiences, flopping at the box office and receiving mixed reviews. However, it has since become a cult classic, cherished by some devoted fans. Its distinctive plot has actually contributed to its enduring popularity over the past two decades. Jokingly, Black attributed the film’s underperformance to its intended audience, claiming that “enthusiastic stoners” didn’t catch it in theaters until it became available on DVD.

Nonetheless, Jack Black and Kyle Gass continue to take pride in their movie up until now. This film holds a special place for them since they were already well-established as Tenacious D for over a decade when it was released. In fact, old concert footage dating back to 1994 depicts Jack discussing the potential movie during performances between songs, with various ideas for fantasy tales revolving around their band. Some fans even speculated that The Pick of Destiny would mark the beginning of a series of outrageous rock comedies; however, no sequels were ever produced.

In certain aspects, The Pick of Destiny stands out as unique and exceptional. Even though there’s just one film, it suggests the potential for similar epics to emerge, and it beautifully captures the energetic character Black has developed throughout his career. Although there’s only one movie, the possibility for more naturally arises, offering fans a chance to imagine what might have been if the movie had been more successful at the box office in 2006.

You can stream ‘Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny’ for free on Tubi, with occasional ad interruptions. It’s accessible across a wide range of popular streaming platforms. Additionally, you can rent or buy the movie digitally from various PVOD stores. Over the years, it has been released multiple times on DVD and Blu-ray formats. The most recent remastered version, complete with new bonus content for dedicated fans, came out in February 2024.
