I look for good directors mainly because if you do enough of movies where there's not a real creative vision behind it, you start to turn into a robot and you want to jump off a bridge.

More quotes by Jack Black
I always feel bad for people getting married and spending upwards of a hundred thousand dollars. It just seems so absurd to me.
Jack Black
I'd just like to be in films that I would like to see. I think of myself as an entertainment arsenal. Like I have my acting bazooka and my music machete. And you don't know what I'm going to come at you with.
Jack Black
I don't really think differently of making a movie for grownups or making a movie for kids, if it's boring it's boring, so you want it to be entertaining and I think funny is funny whether it's for kids or grownups, the only real difference is language.
Jack Black
When I was a kid, I thought I was the strongest man in the world. Then, the fastest runner and then the smartest person in the world. One by one my delusions got shut down. Now I just see myself as the lamest guy in the world.
Jack Black
Seems like every other day there's somebody on the news, somebody gets killed or does something crazy and all the neighbors and everybody says, I can't believe he did that, I can't believe she did that.

You must never underestimate the power of the eyebrow.

The real challenge is if you don't look super sexy, like a Brad Pitt, you're going to have to try harder. You're going to have to make up for it in other ways.
Jack Black
My parents were very supportive of me and my artistic endeavours. My father and mother came to every school play I ever did.

It's a mistake to just go make a movie where the whole thing is talking down to the kids like, Ok, we gotta bring the IQ of this movie down because it's a kids movie You don't have to do that, kids can laugh and parents can laugh at different parts and that's fun, and you see that with all of the great kids movies.
Jack Black
I just remember the early days of Tenacious D. There was no talk or thought about doing a TV show or a movie.
Jack Black
You only have to go hardcore humiliation on the first film. On the subsequent sequels, you can coast.
Jack Black
If Beethoven and Bach hooked up with Mozart and made a band, they could be a distant runner up to The D.
Jack Black
I don't think of myself as a great improver. A lot of times there's long periods of silence when everyone in the recording studio is looking at their watch and waiting for me to say something. And I'm searching desperately in my brain for anything before something dribbles out.
Jack Black
Part of the acting gig is when you're let loose some improvs and put stuff into your own words every once in a while. That doesn't get you a writing credit or more money. It just makes it more fun.
Jack Black
Buddha is pretty funny. Buddha is the coolest, though. If I had to go with one, I'd probably party with the Buddha.
Jack Black
Tenacious D loves Auntie Em's. Her delicious nutrients are always energizing and indie-fresh. Where does she find those unbelievable recipes? Somewhere over the rainbow?
Jack Black
Every movie presents its challenges.

I'd rather be the king of kids, than the prince of fools.

Habit is the strongest thing in life.
