Narps Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Agreed. Not sure I was such a fan of those parts of it. I did enjoy the other "artists" however..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Yeah those parts were almost embarrassing. You'd think they could find someone else, maybe one of us. :D 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I may be the minority on this one but I love Jack Black and Tenacious D. Very funny stuff. I was glad to see him on the show. As with Matt Stone. He makes fart jokes for a living too 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See his film "Bernie"--WOW!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy's Soul Patch Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) I love Jack Black in general, and I think he's awesome in Beyond the Lighted Stage. I thought he had really good stuff to say, and I loved hearing him sing TSOR haha Edited November 9, 2014 by Geddy's Soul Patch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Principled Man Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Jack Black is obnoxious He's not as cool as he thinks he is. His "charisma", for lack of a better word, is more like itching powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty Mindless Spectre Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) I didn't mind the Jack Black interview so much, though I do agree his singing TSOR was a bit cheesy. All in all, i liked what he had to say, and came away from it thinking he is a true Rush fan. I'm 99% sure he was either tripping or really high on some amazingly good weed though. Â The part of BTLS that bothered me twas when Neil said that Moving Pictures was "when Rush became Rush". As if everything prior to MP was worthless.

RushBoingo Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I enjoy Jack Black, both in the doc as a unique interviewee, and in general as an actor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicky6 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) The funny thing is these guys they were interviewing stopped listening or following rush after signals or maybe even MP. Edited November 9, 2014 by nicky6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circumstantial tree Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I wish they would have talked more about the 80s albums instead of simply casually mentioning them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky6 Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 that's because most of the quest speakers were out of rush by that point and forming their own bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I too wish there were more props to their 80´s and 90´s periods in BTLS. But I guess what made people more aware and more fans of Rush was their 70´s run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savagegrace26 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 yes they really didn't cover roll the bones at all. There's more in the outtakes.

patjnev Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Man you said it . I absolutly loathe jack black. I would rather gargle razor blades and drink rubbing alcohol then see him in anything. And Sebastian Beirk ( Bach) made a spectacular ass of himself also in the Doc. I forget the mistake he made.,Maybe it was the quote in french from Circumstances. I don't understand the appeal of Jack Black and that stupid band he has with that other idiot he works with. Just edit his peices out everytime I see him I just want to sceam .

Snyder80 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) I enjoyed BTLS but haven't viewed it twice. I look back on that time and it seems as though that documentary was simply a capstone of their at the time rising popularity. It seems surreal looking back at how popular they became there for a year or so. I even had people I work with mentioning Rush to me because they heard it coming from my speakers or commenting on a tour shirt I was wearing, etc. I still don't understand where that sudden spark of interest came from. I remember their material even showing up in some commercials around the same time. Edited November 10, 2014 by Snyder80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
