      i agree, but in fairness here most aussies actually agree with kyle and fuckn hate trump - this is just Jack Black throwing his friendship of 30 years under the bus for that sweet Nintendo/Illumination and DNC money

        If Nintendo broke ties with everyone that praises assassinations they would have no employees because the vast majority of Japan thinks Shinzo’s assassination had a positive effect and he’s seen as a hero. People fucking cosplay as him lol

          i’d say its more the illumination side of things, considering how many fingers he has in the animated film industry - and especially since he’s a public face, rather than rank-and-file

            I reckon it’s more to do with him being directly involved with the Democrats campaign via Rock the Vote. But yeah it’s definitely not Nintendo lol.

            Either way Jack’s a hack.

          because the online statement is from him directly (not Tenacious D socials together), states he entirely disagrees with Kyle’s actions and unilaterally says all creative plans for the D are cancelled (again, not in a joint statement)
