Most Jack Black-esque quote is "Taste it!" during leveling up. But I do want to hear him sing Goodles and Goats.

It is kind of weird to think of Jack Black becoming some old Hollywood type as he has just been working for a long time. Was there a Rat Pack or 70s Jack Black actor?

I caught part of Mars Attacks! on TV a few days ago for the first time in years and Black's character in that one gets some laughs out of me in his short time on screen.
