Sinister: Damn you High Fidelity, Damn you to a closed sheep pen!

[Red Geisha]

Jack Black didn't dismiss the band (as far as I know) outside of the film - 
his character may have.  And if I remember correctly the other two 
characters liked B&S. I have not encountered anyone who watched the film and 
dismissed B&S, although it's a shame they weren't on the soundtrack.  
Although, I wouldn't be surprised if the film did a lot for the Beta Band.  
In an age where we can get samples at our fingertips and download asap - 
it's rather easy to investigate new music without spending $ on something 
that may collect dust.  Jack Black's band Tenacious D is no stranger to 
horrible reviews :)
