I “met” Jack in Charlotte while he was filming Shallow Hal. I was a fan of The D at this point but he was still little known. I went to a hornets game on a weeknight. Quarter ends and I go to get a beer. I’m standing in the long line (yes NBA had long lines back then, and I turn around and he’s standing there. I did a double take and caught his eyes. He recognized that I recognized him. He put his arms up in a TRex pose, hissed at me then glided off to another line.

It's really moving to me that Jack uses the present tense when he speaks about Robin Williams and Jumanji. It's a small thing but it feels large in the sense that it's like he's keeping Robin at the table with us, right now, and always. Classy and heart felt.

Of course, if they're fortunate enough to see him in Bernie or even that _single_ episode of X-Files he did (with Giovanni Ribisi), it begins to become clear that...much like Robin Williams..there's much more to him than just varying degrees of spasmodic intensity.

Jack Black is like Robin Williams to me. The guy embodied every role he was ever in, made it his own, had so much fun with it, and was himself. I feel like Jack Black is always humble and always striving to pull the best out of his characters.

I went to see Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny at the cinema twice when it released, and then bought the DVD as well as a set of POD guitar picks. My friends and I would always sing the songs with each other, and I've been to see the band a couple of times too. What a legendary cult movie. Love you Jables.
