[edit] Music video

The music video for POD was directed by Liam Lynch, produced by Grant Jue, of the Oil Factory production company and edited by David Rennie and Liam Lynch. Robert Brinkmann was the director of photography.[1] In the video, Jack and Kyle go to a movie theatre to watch Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny, but wind up disturbing the audience with their antics to the point where they are forcibly thrown out of their own movie. In addition, Robert Brinkmann was also the director of photography in Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny.[2] The version seen on TV is slightly different than the one found on the DVD. Instead of "fuckin' insane," the lyric is changed to "freakin' insane" and "flippin' insane" and "completely profane." When Jack Black is kicked out of the movie theater, he tells a man to "sniff on my booty"; on the DVD Jack Black asks a man to "suck on my boney." The TV version also has a Snakes on a Plane poster blurred out which can just barely be seen at the end of the video. Snakes is another New Line Cinema film, released three months before The Pick of Destiny.
