It's called... "Rock band!"

The energy Jack Black exudes throughout this entire movie is just legendary.

"Cello, you've got a bass" is possibly the greatest line in movie history

Jack Black wasn't even acting in this film. He's just being himself all along

“Very inspirational scene” *Starts with Jack Black taking a piss* Don’t take me wrong this is my favorite movie all time

"No that's bad. It's like George of the jungle". It really did sound like it

I like how he randomly has a full set of equipment in his shady van

The way his body moves during his guitar solo is mesmerizing.

This scene made such a short work of the whole plot build up so fast. We went from him getting bored at work to full on rock band in less than 5 minutes. Cutting right to the meat of the story. Jack’s expression, energy and good natured enthusiasm just makes it inevitable that everyone is of course in a band now.

As a kid, this was my introduction to Rock and Roll. The love affair still continues.

Legend says that the van is still open to this day

0:42, love how Freddie is rocking them cymbals as if he's imagining himself at a rock concert or something! RIP Kevin Clark.

"You ever play the electric guitar?" "Dad won't let me, he thinks it's a waste of time." _casually hands the kid a flying V_

This guy kinda looks like Jablinski Games

And now Zach is out there stealing expensive guitars

Just leaving this here for reference... 1:10 "Sunshine of Your Love" by Cream 2:12 "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath 2:26 5:31 "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple 2:44 "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC 3:20 "Touch Me" by The Doors

I had a music teacher like that. He got me into the guitar and music in general. He was as crazy as Jack Black lol but he was great. Really hope music teachers are as passionate as this.

I'm a Bassist and lets Just Not Talk about the Bass scene

That energy and passion from JB when the kid plays piano…puts a smile on your face. Gosh why did we lose such a classic era!

3:38 that is a genuine smile from Lawrence as it seems Jack is improvising here.

PLAYING ELECTRIC GUITAR IS NO WASTE OF TIME!!! Who's with me Edit: jeez lueez didn't know so many people would agree.

C-hellooo You got a bass 😂😂😂

Black Sabbath-Iron man Deep purple-Smoke on the water AC DC -Highway to hell

Jack was not acting. He loves music that much

Damn that kid got to play an all white 1980s flying v lucky

*"inspirational" in the title* *SCENE STARTS WITH JABLINSKI GAMES PEEING*

School of Rock- one of the most underrated movies of early 2000s

Kids Before UKposts: Jack Black Kids After UKposts: Jablinski Adults: Tenacious D Me, an intellectual being: *NACHOOOOOOOO LIBRE*

Zakk now is in jail for stealing guitars, beautiful world!

The guitar kid (Zack) faces felonies because he stole guitars. I guess you can’t be hardcore unless you live hardcore.

Check out Katie's expressions and her overall look throughout this whole scene, and then watch Zach's song in the competition. Her transformation (along with all the others) is the best part of this fantastic movie.

This movie really inspired me as a kid in elementary school. I remember my dad saying this was the first movie he took me to that he actually enjoyed.

I love how he’s the one who gets them going, solos out, then tells them to stop messing around lmao

A favorite line: "Cel-LOOOH! You've got a bass."

This scene makes me want to watch the whole movie again

Not gonna lie this scene is one of the big reasons I play guitar now

2:26 there's always that one guy in every guitar stores

*My dad won’t let me, he says it a waste of time.* Me: YOUR DADS A WASTE OF TIME

Me and my dad watched this 2 days ago. At the end my dad cried, and I was genuinely so confused at first, but then he said it’s just amazing how a group of kids can make amazing music like this. Amazing film, my all-time favourite.

Classical music was the inspiration for many of the greatest rock songs.

“I play percussion” “thats cause you couldn’t play anything else” Says the tuba player Jk i play tuba its amazing Edit: thanks for the highlight

“What’s that thing you were playing?” “Cello” “Well this is a bass”

You can see his passion for rock music.

The Richard Linklater and Jack Black dynamic legacy will live on. Genius directing and lead performance in this film.

Who's here after knowing that Zack stole a guitar??

4:55 "play a g note" i start to cry

6:24 teacher: no it’s called... UKposts ads: raid shadow legends

LOVE this scene! Really awesome to know they put it together in like one cut. That guitar riff is so simple but so dang catchy. And especially love the freakin’ rockin’ solo by Dewey too! 😆😅 lol. Ahhh, such a great classic of a movie!! 😍❤️🎶🤟🏻🎸🔥

0:30 Omg I never realized they were playing concierto de aranjuez....which is a very popular orchestral piece that is hard as hell!

I heard you in music class, you guys can really play WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME Love it!

One of my favorite scenes in this movie. And as a fan of hard rock and Heavy metal or let alone Rock 'n Roll, I find it most *Inspiring* \m/

0:01 Wow, this is the most inspirational scene I've seen!

1:59 he seemed offended lol

My mom put this movie on when I was like 4 and it’s pretty much made me who I am today lmao

He is so funny in this movie. Its one of the few movies one can watch it over again and get something new from it. The kids of course were great.

i just love how jack black has his ban full of stuff to make a band on the spot, every movie he has ever made is in character for his own personality

THIS is School of Rock, not that piece of shit on Nickelodeon

As their teacher, he gave them the greatest gift of all-- self esteem! And praise! If you don't have it, you're not going to succeed. Love this movie!!!!

If we had such a very enthusiastic music teacher back then, I may have ended up with a career in the music industry.

0:47 To. 1:11 was the reason why I decided to spend my piggy bank money at the age of 9 and buy and learn the guitar, my family thought it was a phase and my siblings didn’t think it was a good idea, I never did learn the guitar, guess music is not in my blood, but I still love listening to it, and this scene will forever be a great memory of mine and this movie is my childhood!

damn, Just weeks after starting his channel Jablinski already has an own movie

I really love him as a teacher. That's the kind of instructor you'll want in ANY kind of class XD

Never got tired of this movie....rock onnnnn

Of all movies about creatives and artists, this scene is honestly the best display of how the creative process works

5:58 Michael Jackson

The best was at the 5:47 marker when the two girls give a silent look to each other that captures so much in that little move they do while Jack is just starting to take off into unknown territory. Kudos to those small gems they sprinkle throughout. 👍

This is the most pivotal scene in the entire movie. There Mr. S is, taking a wiz, going nowhere in life, when suddenly, as he pisses on the world below him, he hears music from above, perhaps from heaven. From this point on, his life has purpose and takes an entirely different direction.

The positivity he shows the kids is amazing!

I love how he’s rocking out to the most simplest tunes

I cant believe zach stole guitars awesome

This is just a documentary if Jack black was hypothetically a teacher.

Awesome! And so it is not lost in the mix, don't miss out on the piece they are playing at the start: concierto de aranjuez. It's so beautiful. Search for that piece plus Brassed Off for a fantastic version. Even better if you know the film.

1:04 Damn Zach calm down

4:12 "Let your fingers do the rocking keep that G CoMiNg all day long"

Always go back to this film ❤

Undoubtedly one of the best casting. One of those born to play this role kinda part for Jack

After the events of Tenacious D, JB decided to bring his talents to the next level by becoming a mentor of Rock sharing his knowledge and wisdom to the young students who will grow up to be the new generation of Rock n Roll

Seth has never played the electric guitar, Lawrence has never played keyboards, Katie has never played bass and Freddy has never played drums. No prob-blemo, Mr. S has it covered!!

RIP Drummer 😢

*5:44** is one of the best parts of the entire movie* 🤘😂

Still trips me out that he had all those instruments in his van

The first time I watched this as a kid I recognised all of the songs Jack and Zach played, Iron Man, Highway to Hell and Smoke On The Water Glad my parents let me listen to good music

I just love Zack had the Hetfield Gibson Flying V

Cello! You’ve got a bass! *Im still dead watching this scene* Jack Black is amazing.

Frikn CLASSIC! God I wish my kid a teacher like J Black! Love his passion for music! Cracking up when he goes into solo mode! Thanks for posting this scene🤟

What's amazing is how Mr. S is able to work with these kids - Zack has never played electric guitar, Lawrence has only played the piano, Katie only the cello and the drummer merely percussion. Yet he improvises and, damn, if it doesn't work.

I thought Jack was going to do jumping jacks at some point, he was so excited. Great movie!

I wish I can go to this school...

I am happy every time watching this movie. Causing tears to burst with joy And thinking about the atmosphere in the old days when he was a child and famous rock music

1:08 the eyebrows on point

Jack Black is the king of personal encouragement. I could be sat homeless and he'd come by and within 5 minutes I'd be opening for Sam Fender.

He just made a band in 5 minutes I am amazed

I love that bass that she uses

The ending of this movie was very sad, everyone got to play a solo... except the Bass girl 😢

5:43 me trying to activate star power on gh3

Why does he look like jablinski games

„Whoa! alright lets goooo!!“ 😂☠️legendary!

I LOVE him on Fallon playing the toy sax!! Its great! 😂

This movie came out when I was in middle school. It inspired me to pickup electric guitar. I’m now 30.. I still play every day.. some shows now and then. my life has revolved around music since I was a child. Because of this movie.

Zack attack is now in jail for stealing guitars and pawning them.
