Taika Waititi on His Surprise Trip to Shrek's House and His Movie Next Goal Wins (Extended)

[@Arii_h]

Taika is always so fun in all the interviews, I could listen to him talk about anything, he's never boring!

Great interview! Should’ve asked him about Our Flag Means Death tho

Greatest show ever!!! Him as black beard is brilliant.

[@nintenmetro]

We need Jimmy and Taika to do a Mad Lib Theater. That’ll make me crack up for sure.

[@b-meaker99]

Because he puts love into his movies and his actors in his movies is why all of his movies are so damn good!!! ❤❤❤

[@SX1995able]

Except Love and Thunder

[@PhillyJakes]

Love and thunder was worse then quantumania by far. Terrible. It made me feel bad for living Marvel.

[@Akash-ng7ue]

​​​@@PhillyJakesi like love and thunder as a movie but it butchered Thor's character arc and was sooo silly. I was hyped up at that time because of taika directing love and thunder because i liked ragnarok a lot but taika took humour and sillyness too far and even made thor dumb at times. I thought he could redeem himself by making a great thor 5 but he seems like too stubborn to change and learn from criticism and he already admitted he won't be directing thor 5

[@SX1995able]

@@Akash-ng7ue He's just grown lazy and let himself fall back on what's worked and it's firing back on him. He admitted in an interview to being lazy,not doing research but "I'm successful" and if you look at the reviews for his new movie Next Goal Wins, it's getting mediocre to below average reviews, plus the hate L and T got

It's not Thor 5. Marvel Studios said "Not after last time.." He was trying to out-Ragnarok, "Ragnarok"...didn't work. And Chris wants to come back IF he can be more "BRING ME THANOS!!" and less "You..y-y-ou got any beer in there??"

Ask Taika if he'll be producing/directing any more programs like "Reservation Dogs"? That show left a lot of us hungering for more of rez life on the screen. It was like being home again.

[@Jackferrett6781]

Honestly that movie was probably the lowest effort he's made thus far. The documentary it's based off is orders of magnitude more entertaining and endearing, and honestly Taika's replication fell far short.

[@afrinkhatun9632]

Delighted he was dropped from the Thor movie directing and writing. He turned Thor and Hulk into sideshow idiots....His mandate seems to be "How many smart arsed gags can I get into a scene...."

You need to expand your pallet. Maybe try "what we do in the shadows" or "our flag means death..." Even if you don't like the two shows I just mentioned, we'll at least know that you just have bad taste. 😂
