About Leslie Expertise I am a total movie and celeb nut, so I know about all the movies in theaters, such as actors, shooting places etc. I want to be an actress, so I take an avid interest in movies, and if you have a question on whether or not to go see a movie, I can also tell you the good and bad points of each, so please ask away!
Experience My mom, my best friend and I are all celeb and movie nuts, so we know lots of things about even little-known celebs, and we love to watch movies. I also am making a film for the Toronto International Teen Movie Fest, and I am going to be a famous actress someday soon!

Question Hi, my name is Jordan Lawrence from Lee's Summit West High School. I am doing a project on what ever I want for my English class. I have chosen Jack Black. I saw that you like movies, and Jack Black is one of my favorite actors. So I have ten questions to ask you about him. Now I don't know if you like him, so just anwser the best you can:
1. How much do you like Jack Black?
2. How much do you like him (if you do) compared to Jim Carrey or Adam Sandler?
3. Has he really been any different from other comedic actors?
4. Have you ever heard his band Tenacious D?
5. If you have heard him in Tenacious D, did you like it, or does he go too far with the language?
6. Do you think he will be around as long as most of the other comic legends?
7. If you like him, what is your favorite movie of his?
8. Do you think that Jack is funnier with his physical or verbal comedy?
9. Did you think Orange County was funny?
10. Also did you think that School of Rock was funny?
Like I said, just anwser the best way you can, and thanks for your time.
Sincerly,
Jordan Lawrence
Answer Cool project, I'll help you the best i can.
1. I think he's pretty adorable.
2. I would say that I like him less than Jim Carrey and about the same as Adam Sandler. Jim Carrey has just really proven himself to me in roles like man on the moon and eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. I don't think Jack Black has reached that point in his career yet.
3. In terms of outrageousness, I would say no, he's not completely different because many comedic actors tend to act really outrageous, like Robin Williams. However he has carved out a niche for himself because he's really the only stoner type comedic actor. (sorry if you can't put that in your paper)
4. Yea, I've heard of them
5. Some of the songs are hilarious, some are kinda risque, but as long as there are no 12 year olds listening to it i think it's pretty funny.
6. I think he will probably be around for a while, he has quite a following.
7. I think besides Dead Man Walking (he was only in there for a bit) i like Shallow Hal.
8. I think he is a much funnier physical comedian, his facial expressions and his gestures are what make him hilarious.
9. I thought orange county had it's funny moments, but it's not my favorite jack black movie.
10. School of Rock was pretty awesome. Richard Linklater (the director) is super talented. It was a pretty good match.
Hope this helps ya. If you need anything else, just ask.
