In 1999, Heat Vision And Jack was created as a pilot for Fox TV. It was directed by Ben Stiller and stars Jack Black as astronaut/nighttime genius Jack Austin, and Owen Wilson as the voice of Heat Vision, Jack’s talking motorcycle/ex-roommate.

Some of you may know all about this, others may have no idea, and others still (like me) will say something like, “I think I heard of that once… somewhere… maybe in college?” when you ask them if they’ve ever heard of Heat Vision And Jack. Whoever you are, if you have about 20 minutes to spare, watch the pilot in its entirety below.
