Jack Black discusses the demon slayer's workout on Jimmy Kimmel Live

by JC Fletcher on Oct 16th 2009 3:00AM

This week, Jack Black continued his bizarre Brütal Legend promotional tour with an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, somewhat in character as Eddie Riggs. As we watched Black upturn furniture and do clap push-ups, we started to realize that he's getting rather a lot of mileage out of that muscle suit. And then we couldn't help but wonder: what do you think that suit smells like right now?

And how do you even clean the inside of a foam rubber muscle suit? Do you use household cleaners of some kind, or does the film industry have a specially formulated solution just for cleaning bodysuits?

... Oh, right, the Kimmel segment's after the break, in four parts.

he is a god

Why can't he just use his normal voice?!?

He's kickass :D

Jack Black is the FUCKING MAN!!!

BEST INTERVIEW EWWAAA

jimmy kimmel is such an ahole for trying to get jack black to shit on his own movies he's made.... lol

Watch, Jack Black will be promoting brutal legend 10 years from now. He's just that dedicated.

this is selling out in a good way.

dude, I'd be super proud if i voiced and starred in my first video game

Yeah respecting a great mind and creator such as Hideo is nothing to be proud of, and jokingly say he's a word that doesn't exist is a bad thing.

Get off my nuts, I can have an opinion if I want.

And you can bet if idiots are giving BL more un-deserved hype, I'm gonna be right there telling them how it is.

this is fucking lame.

Jack Black is the worst thing to happen to video games since Halo, Guitar Hero, and MW.

What do all these things have in common?
Douchebags. Fucking douchebags.

you're the only douche bag

Jack Black = pwnz.

and you = http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/4386/picardinsult.jpg

Jeez why gotta be a douchebag in every article 1251? Let's see here:

Quote: "fuck chat party."
Conclusion: anger issues

Quote: "very original Valve. You fat fucks."
Conclusion: anger issues

Quote: "shows how much Joystiq knows about actual theater. Thank you for telling us who is able to write the better stories, assholes."
conclusion: anger issues

Quote: "As do I, you shmexy little Japanese dude."
Conclusion: little Japanese dudes make him horny

Need a hug? Hmmm?

With Karate I'll kick your ass, from here to right over there,
Oh yeah motherfucker, I'm gonna kick your fucking derriere!

@mgsrocks1: "Need a hug? Hmmm? "

Well, according to your established logic that'll work only if you're a japanese dude.

Why does Jack Black make his voice gruff when playing Eddie in real life? He does not sound like this in the game.

well its just to fit his muscle suit, i'm sure hes fully aware that it doesnt match his character in-game.

Dude, where do you think his genitals disappeared to ?

But he's not playing Eddie. He's just really committed to the craft.

I see at least three posts asking the same question every time Jack Black and Brutal Legend is posted here on Joystiq.

My answer. How the fuck should we know?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was thinking the exact same thing, it's probably the roadie workout schedule.

@Fine Leather Jackets
"I was thinking the exact same thing, it's probably the roadie workout schedule."

Tenacious D should re-make the "Kanye Workout Plan" as the "Roadie Workout Plan".

lol I was thinking the same thing. He has a rough voice, then it pans to the game clips and he sounds like normal JB. Personally once I realized that I thought it was a hilarious touch.

haha this is awesome. I'd be pretty pumped and willing to be ridiculous in character too if I had my first video game made and it turned out so cool also!

Im not interested in the game but that was cool of jack black,fair play

At the end of part three there was a voice in the back of his head saying "School of Rock, School of Rock, School of Rock, School of Rock, School of Rock, School of Rock, School of Rock "

Jack is completely insane and I love him for it.

People say Jack Black only plays "himself" in movies.
That is true but i wouldn't have it any other way!

I'm not Jack Black's biggest fan, but I think the role he got in Brutal Legend is a perfect fit for him. I laughed all the way through the demo, and even laughed some more on the second playthrough. Go JB!

hmm strange.. i love jack black, especially in Tenacious D but i actually found him annoying in Brutal Legend. horrible monologue & one liners. his jokes arent even funny. hmm oh well. i wasnt planning on getting it to begin with.

That's ironic because I found him annoying in almost all other projects he appeared in. Oh well, different strokes for different folks.

How much are they paying him?

Clap push-ups? I thought Jack Black's specialty was cock push-ups...

The roids made them disappear...

That was awesome... Especially when the demon was just sitting there

I saw this when he was on. Pretty hilarious. I'm not sure why he talks that way since he doesn't in the game, but the clap pushups were great. I need some of those fake muscles. :)

Anyone remember Jack Black in Airborne (1993)?

Or how about Jack Black vs. The Luck Dragon in Never Ending Story III
