Taika Waititi
Oh the dork who recently signed this letter and who is a staunch supporter of Israel?
Sucks that such a gifted and internationally-acclaimed Māori has to be such a shithead when it comes to Israel’s crimes against the indigenous people of Palestine. I’ve seen plenty of small-time Māori content creators being bitterly disappointed in him and I sympathise with them because that shit’s really gotta suck - the worst I’ve had to deal with is some artist here or there whose work I appreciate but I haven’t had to deal with one of the most prominent members of my community and someone who was viewed as an inspirational figure turning out to be a disgrace. Never meet your heroes I guess?
Is there Māori word like gusano?
I’m not sure but if there is one I’d put money on it being hella poetic
The child actor who plays the lead is named Kal-El Tuck. In Kryptonian, “El” means “Child”. “Kal” means “star”. Quite literally, Kal-El means “Star Child”.
I thought that was strange until I saw Nic Cage named one of his kids that.
No, it’s not the same kid.

MAKE. NEW. THINGS.
Ah. I can say with almost utmost certainly that it will be completely dogshit. Look at the Amazon LOTR - absolute garbage.
As someone else said, make new things, but also - can we stop turning movies into TV? I’m pretty sure it’s not because it will be better artistically, or because it needs the extra time. However, I don’t know the exact reasons that TV could be a better investment… Is it because it brings viewers weekly? Or just because TV is hot right now?
even if Taika wasn’t a zionist this still has Lisa Kudrow
someone really named their kid Kal-El
