DVD Reviews of Tenacious D - The Complete Master WorksDVD Review: Very Different Summary: 4 StarsI purchased a new DVD set mere for nothing and I am amused with what I first time heard and saw.
Good DVD to broad swearing skills and some knowledge of g-culture while listening to professional tunes.
I would say second disk with short movies is even better.
A set rocked me hard.
DVD Review: Everything but "The Pick of Destiny" Summary: 5 StarsThis is a great DVD from the greatest and best band in the world. As the title states, this DVD includes every single Tenacious D publication that I can think of other than their latest movie, "The Pick of Destiny." It includes older material you may have seen, and much more material that you probably haven't. All of their music videos, HBO episodes, HBO short films, TV appearances, and even a full length concert at the Brixton Academy. Comes with 2 discs, one labeled "for fans", and one labeled "for psycho fans." Both are great discs - as long as you can stomach the D's humour!
DVD Review: Excellent Portrayal of the D Summary: 5 Stars People always say Jack Black and the D are hilarious, but you dont really know either of them until you've seen this dvd. This is Tenacious D at their best. The concert, the show, the skits, all are funny as hell. The Complete MasterWorks is totally worth buying.
DVD Review: Love it... Summary: 5 StarsI love this DVD... This is what Tenacious D is all about. Gotta love it...or be very disturbed by it.
DVD Review: this dvd rocks, so hard. Summary: 5 Starsa must have for those tenacious D fans who used to stay up until 3am just to see a couple 15 minute episodes of the D on HBO way back in the day.
it will rock your socks off.
Description of Tenacious D - The Complete Master WorksWith pitchfork and shovel, Tenacious D has labored to finally unearth the first ever Tenacious D-VD from the fragrant bowels of Hades. For years, this turd has been spit-polished, massaged, and finally sanctified by both Jables and KG, and they are now ready release it to the world. This highly provocative DVD contains the legendary and epic recital at London's Brixton Academy that was by chance recorded on November 3, 2002. Watch as Jack and Kyle slay the mighty dragon and treat the British public to a phenomenal performance that includes the now classic D melodies; Wonderboy, Explosivo, Kyle Quit The Band, Friendship, Kielbasa, Dio, The Cosmic Shame, F#*! Her Gently, Tribute and the ever popular Live Short Films that have been screened during The D's shows. The Complete Masterworks also contains the groundbreaking, hard to get (legally), HBO episodes which tell the tale of The D in their early days on the road to stardom. But that's not all! Act now and a bonus second disc will be gifted to the first twelve million loyal Tenacious D apostles, included is an intimate portrait of Jack and Kyle and their life of carnal debauchery on the road. Lucky owners of the DVD will catch rare and gruesome behind the scenes glimpses of the making of the Tribute & Wonderboy videos as well as never before seen footage of The D as they perform their secret backstage rituals. TENACIOUS D: THE COMPLETE MASTERWORKS is truly a harbinger of the good times ahead as we all await the coming apocalypse. If you're not a Tenacious D fan already, The Complete Master Works might make you an instant convert (or scare you away; it all depends). One thing's for sure: If you thought "the D" were nothing more than a novelty act, this two-disc feast will set you straight, proving that classically trained guitarist Kyle Gass and fast-rising comedy star Jack Black (School of Rock) are a bona fide acoustic power duo, scorching the pop-cultural landscape with their satirically scathing lyrics while qualifying as legitimate musicians with awesome chops and just enough insanity to make them dangerous on stage. Disc 1 ("For Fans") is all meat and potatoes, consisting of a brilliant concert (taped at London's Brixton Academy, November 3, 2002) in which Black casts himself as an abrasive provocateur, daring to offend "KG" and the audience alike with barbed taunts and spiteful attitude (all faked, of course, but convincing enough to sucker the gullible). The musicianship is first-rate, and Black's vocals remarkably spry, a deft combination of rapid-fire scatting and heavy-metal worship. The HBO episodes chronicle TD's early years as their popularity was still mostly an L.A.-based phenomenon, and without exception they're wet-your-pants hilarious. Disc 2 is aptly dubbed "For Psycho Fans," offering a potpourri of TD ephemera for true devotees, including three HBO short films that are gross enough (and funny enough) to make any Farrelly Brothers comedy look positively tame by comparison (in other words, this definitely isn't kid's stuff). The TV appearances are somewhat redundant with the concert material, and the "On the Road" video diaries are perfunctory but fun. The best is saved for last: two music videos paired with "making-of" featurettes, including Spike Jonze's fantasy-oriented video for "Wonderboy," and a devilishly adult-oriented video for "FHG" (salacious "D" fans know what that means) from the animators of Ren & Stimpy. If you're offended, don't blame "Kage" and "Jables"--their Tenacious DVD has "Parental Advisory" clearly stamped on its cover, and prudes are well-advised to stay away. --Jeff Shannon
