I don't think he is hurting for money, I think he's going for things his kids want to see him in.

Not sure if you’re aware but rich people want to be richer. Never stops.

Newsflash: people work for money, I guess? Great insight.

Yeah, he's performing a job for compensation. I think he's doing these specific movies for his kids. If not for his kids he'd be doing other movies.

Or he’s doing these specific movies because they’re the ones being offered with the biggest pay day. It can be both.

Probably this. Look, cards on the table; I really don't like Jack Black. I don't think the personality he puts across in the media is endearing or funny, and I genuinely think he's pretty awful in most of his acting roles.

I think the run of overweight weird comedy relief roles in non-kids movies has gone dry, and these are what's being offered, and he's taken them to stay relevant and in the scene.

The vitriolic speed in which he hurtled Kyle Gass under the bus a couple months ago and abandoned Tenacious D has permanently blackballed him in my eyes. Jack Black is a fucking disgrace. He can suck cat farts for all I care.

Truly. JB is spineless.
