Rock School
Saw School of Rock over the weekend. Had some very funny moments. (I was a little horrified when the lead character assigned odious 70s pretense-rock band Yes to a student, and specifically mentioned 70s pretense-rock-crap song Roundabout, but that aside, it was pretty good.)
The funniest to me was right in the beginning, when Jack Black has just been nagged by his roommate for back rent money at the behest of roommate's hot-but-shrewish new girlfriend: "Look, I've been mooching off you for years. And it was never a problem until she came into the picture." Jack Black then suggests the girlfriend needs to be dumped. Talk about best defense is a good offense.
The second funniest was when Jack Black is finally given his costume to wear for a performance that serves as the movie's finale, and it's a postal uniform, a la Angus Young.
Trivia question: Angus Young's brother George Young fronted what band?
