Two rockers meet up in Venice Beach and take on an epic quest to claim the Pick of Destiny and become the greatest rock band the world has ever seen. This movie has the coolest songs that I ever heard and the funniest final battle in film history.

An annoying film that really only would play well to core fans of Tenacious D. Some of the rock references and cameos are fun, but the whole film is too self indulgent.

"JB" (Jack Black) runs away from home after being spanked by his father (Meat Loaf). Years later, he finally makes it to Hollywood and comes across the greatest guitar player he has ever heard, "KG" (Kyle Glass).
After a little squabble, the two decide join forces and perform at an Open Mic Night at what appears to be a less than popular bar. To their shock, they don't do that good.
Back at their less than spectacular apartment, the two are trying to figure out what the legends of rock have that they don't while looking at some old magazines. It's only then that they realize that the guitarists on the covers have the same guitar pick.
While trying to look for a similar pick, an employee of the music shop (Ben Stiller, who is also the film's Executive Producer) tells him the …
