Tool Plan Band Movie

With Tool entrenched on the road in support of its latest effort "10,000 Days," guitarist Adam Jones says the alt-metal act is tossing around ideas for a band movie.

"It has to be a collective thing as far as the band members," Jones told Billboard.com. "Everyone has to be very happy and it has to be done in a way where people would see integrity and hard work and not just something thrown together or home movies or some shy filmed live show.

"It's a selfish thing," he added. "There's that selfish quality of what we want versus what everyone else wants. But I think at the end of the day if we get what we want, it's reflective in what other people see in that."

Jones, the visionary behind many of the group's music videos, said movie discussion is nothing new to the Los Angeles-based band. If the right financial backer entered the picture, it could become a reality sooner than later.

"We all have ideas about it," Jones said. "If I had my way, it would be a narrative story in a surreal fashion with as much money and special effects we could throw at it. I think some of the other guys would like to do pockets of all of that or something that's live or we're playing. It's just talk right now."
