pov: you watched Our Flag Means Death, fell in love with Taika, and now you're watching every single interview with him.
I've seen a lot of interviews with Taika, and this is one of the very few that I've seen where the interviewer is actually able to connect with him and make the most of the interview.
Yeah, he usually runs rings around them and is way too quick-whitted for them to keep up. This was lovely.
They have great chemistry
Taika seems incredibly relaxed around the host.
True, reminds me of Richard Ayoade, not many can interview him without being seriously overrun by quick wit.
yeah, it just seems like they're hanging out
That chair could not contain him.. it was his personal rollercoaster the whole way through. Bless them both, it was a hoot to watch.
It's a bisexual thing lol
He's sliding down which is making his pants ride up and strangle his crotch area 😂🤣😂
So we all just kind of fell in love with Taika Waititi just now, didn't we?
Oh yeah!
New Zealand’s been in love with him for a looooong time and now he’s being recognised by the world I love it 😍
Yeah. Yeah, we did. Totally.
haha been in love since What We Do In The Shadows, but happy to see even more love coming his way :D
I've been smitten for years now, but being able to see so much more of him lately has really deepened my love... The man is awesome!
NZ’s national treasure. Like, as in, he was voted New Zealander of the Year for 2017. New Zealand got together and were like, “yep, Taika’s the best we’ve got”. And you got him drunk and interviewed him. Brilliant.
Abbey Suyker If he’s the best we’ve got then we are pretty damn lucky! Brilliant man.
Abbey Harrison peter jackson has been forgotten and from the ashes taika rises
Yep
Ugh, what a lad...how is he this cool. This is the loveliest chat. I wish all directors would scoop me up like a little duckling in their films. A better world for all, that would be.
He's a legend
Hazel’s gotta be a guest TRYer, Sean! We’d all watch it! It’s not as though alcohol shoots are new for the gang!
Someone find the interview he did after this
My theory is that it's this one: kzhead.info/sun/h7SDgZFsb3OCpIE/bejne.html
@@ilurvsharrypotter I'm thinking this one definitely happened while he was still drunk too, lol. But then again he's Taika and Jeff is Jeff, o who knows? lol. He is wearing the same outfit though. -- kzhead.info/sun/ptOrfc18gV-AYHk/bejne.html
@@BriannaBanana1 yesss he’s wearing the same socks 😂
I can't remember the last time I saw a video title and clicked faster. It did not disappoint.
Patrick (H) Willems Glad you liked it! He was such a delightful guest 😊
SAME. I love this dude so much.
You said "It's interesting cause I was talking to Guillermo del Toro" like that's a normal fucking thing. I really want to be in a place when I can say something like that so casually.
Well yeah, but if I'm being honest I'd have to say "it's interesting because I was just freaking out AT Guillermo del Toro"
Taika is one of the few celebrities that make me feel that stupid, giggly teenage crush feeling.
Agreed. Whenever I watch an interview with him, I feel like he’s flirting with me and I get very dopey and have a stupid smile plastered on my face the whole time.
If you had told me that this was just Hazel interviewing an old friend, I 100% would believe you. This is really all aspects of Hazel, jokes, in depth move talk, and lots of alcohol.
i like her chill attitude. all the other interviewers are hell bent on sticking to whatever script/questions they have
yes! and maybe thats why Taika enjoy this one so much, compared to his other interviews. Taika was always like, "i know this is a job, but lets enjoy this", and other interview was like "no, i know we should enjoy this, but this is a job, my job.". and hazel just like "alrighty mate! Cheers!"
This is also why I like DP/30.
Yep, sort of reminded me of Craig Ferguson interview. Hard to get better than that. Also Taika is just perfect for this sort of interview, due to just being bloody hilarious
This is fucking glorious. It genuinely just feels like a chat between good mates as they get smashed and I'm loving it
“Camp chic” finally an adequate description of my aesthetic
Katie K same lol
Thanks Hazel, I'm now slightly in love with Taika Waititi. He seems so chill and down to Earth and hilarious.
He's absolutely bloody lovely
same
HE'S AMAZIN
me too! I also kinda ship them, is that weird?
We Kiwis are very chilled out☺
I would do anything to see you interview him again about Our Flag Means Death
same!!
yess
Or maybe with Rhys Darby!
@@waywarddeee ooh, would also love that
@@waywarddeee both of them at the same time!
you have this fluidity to your interviewing style which manages to put the interviewee at ease. Even though I know you would have done a lot of work to make your interviewing style look so effortless. Brilliant as always!
I honestly haven't. But I appreciate that you think I have :)
:) xx
just a natural conversation.. the best type of interviews!
Are you sure it's not just the alcohol?
I appreciate the use of alcohol
I love that this was less of a tipsy talk and more of a trollied talk 😂
We got through a few drinks alright
Mr Waititi has impeccable style. He never, ever looks unkempt. His clothes always seem to just work for him.
CHEMISTRY!!! Such good chemistry, the dynamic of this interview is great. Hazel has a a talent for bringing out the human in seemingly out of reach celebrities/artists/directors.
Taika is a character himself though
HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE, WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS - legit best director i am soooo keen to see Thor EEEEE
What we do in the shadow, my favorite movie!! He's awesome in it
i watched these for some film classes and it was my intro to taika waititi and now he's my fave!
The most underrated and wonderful films! I love WWDITS!!
Isabella Parker Thor with the humour of What We Do In The Shadows. It’s so perfect.
What bout boy
He's such a good boi
This is the most drunk anyone's been willing to get. That's cause this is the first kiwi 😂
yeah that was about 1/2 standard drinks for kiwis
ahaha exactly what I was thinking
Standard procedure ma bro 😂😂😂
Kate Murray I feel the Irish & New Zealanders have a similar appreciation of alcohol 😁😁
waheyrayray I'm not Irish or Kiwi, but I've been both places and your assessment is spot on!
I still can’t believe he went from the 24hr film festival here in NZ to doing a blockbuster so fast just shows with real talent an Oscar nomination can still be a huge launching point especially with a little local funding to help out. I hope our new government increases arts funding so we can create more Taikas
This feels less like an interview and more like two mates having a good time :)
this was unintentionally the cutest tipsy talk, and I love it
I adore this interviewer. She's so relaxed and funny and it really works making Taika comfortable. He's usually so bored with getting the same lame, generic questions over and over. I've rarely seen him so at ease just talking without a script and having a good time. Brilliant interview!
help im obsessed with him after ofmd
This was beautiful, this is my first exposure to Taika but I couldn't have asked for a better introduction and I'm a bit more invested in seeing Thor after this
If you want to see him as an actor I would really recommend "What we do in the Shadows" it's hilarious!
He did a movie called Boy. It's a kiwi cult classic so I don't know if you will understand most of the obscure references? It's excellent
He’s made some awesome movies, Hunt for the Wilderpeople is one of his more recent movies, he made it and acted in it as the minister, and it’s bloody hilarious
I love how the replies to this comment are literally "watch all his movies" But yeah Taika is great, I recommend starting with Hunt For The Wilderpeople!
omg yes it is. I also have his other movies Boy and Hunt for the Wilder People .
This was hard to watch because of the jealousy.
Jazza John Do you mean when she talked about other directors?
You made me LOL IRL
I've been watching a buncha interviews with Taika in a roll (just cause I love him) and, I've got to say, this one is the best I've ever seen. You are so genuine and so engaged and casual, it really transpires how much you admire him and, at the same time, it looks like you guys are friends just shooting the shit. Also, I think this is the most laid back, comfortable and "off" I've seen him in an interview (that may have to do with the alcohol a bit) and it was just great. I'm in. Subscribed.
Pedro Capusso Thanks for leaving such a lovely comment! And welcome 😊
love seeing a new zealander break into hollywood
Guys, if you haven't seen What We Do in the Shadows. It's classic NZ humour. It's hilarious. It showcases this mans genuine talent. Get thai food, drink rose and laugh and laugh and laugh.
I am becoming more and more attracted to Taika Waititi with every interview I watch
He’s pretty fit though isn’t he
Ailis plenty of maori's here in Auckland
He is the complete package.
I really enjoy watching your interviews with celebrities. I think it’s because you approach them as people instead of as a celebrity - it really calming and refreshing to see these people that get glorified and put on a pedestal really down to earth and opening up about what that experience is like. Cheers hazel 🖤
elonnabettini also Taika is really genuine and down to earth.
Taika can do deadpan so well in this interview. All it took was a few drinks to make the deadpan come to life.
Emmanuel Alejandro In this case, it definitely wasn't the drinks, it was the person.
HE IS SO ATTRACTIVE
As a New Zealander... this makes me very happy.
Laura Nixon sameeee
Laura Nixon yea same
@@abbie5416 and so the four new zealanders formed and everlasting friendship and vowed to fight the forces of evil for the rest of their lives. the end
TAIKA
I feel the same!
Vita Annie feel so proud right :')
Me too :)
I had the exact same thought!!!
Kate Small New Zealand represent?
5:00 is one of my favourite moments on KZhead. Hazel taking the opportunity to ask a big name like Taika such a basic, everyday question on this online platform is so important! And Taika’s response is just classic. This video is very wholesome. Thank you Hazel.
"nobodys telling me to stop, so ill just keep talking." "thats how I live my life." love that
I've really fallen in love with Taika over this press tour as he is so talented, self aware and genuinely funny. This is the best interview I've see with him. I mean, I love all the Tipsy Talks because they're an amazing way to do an interview and get the interviewee comfortable. Taika seemed completely in his element here. Loved it.
Thor 3 was such a breath of fresh air is single handedly DRAGGED me back into the marvel movies and after a decade of movies (most of which I had skipped tbh) I suddenly gave a shit and now I've watched and rewatched like every single film because he gave me new favorite characters to root for.
Taika Waititi is my favourite director alive. So fecking funny. Boy, What We Do in the Shadows, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, just some of the funniest films to come out in the last few years. I'm sure the new Thor one will be gas. I appreciate that he actually did the interview with you to begin with, Hazel (no offense intended). He's just such a big name in my mind. And I appreciate you Hazel for this great vid.
Just realised he directed The Hunt for the Wilderpeople which is now in my top 5 favorite films. Love him.
"And what's behind *that* door?" "Vegetables?"
I can't even... This is the best Tipsy Talk everer. You're a natural interviewer!
I've never seen or heard Taika Waititi before but I like him now :-)
you need to watch his other stuff!
hunt for the wilderpeople did
I saw Boy and What We Do in the Shadows before, but to be fair, I do live in Australia xD
Who else is on a Taika Watiti interview binge?
i love how comfortable he looks in this interview. you nailed it ❤
I am genuinely interested in Taika Waititi after watching this. I had no intentions of seeing this movie until now. I didn’t even know who he was. I know alcohol is involved, but he seems so down-to-earth. I love the conversation. Professional but so chill. Great interview, as always, Hazel!
Thats pretty much how most Kiwi's are. Probably part of NZ's tall poppy syndrome/cuture though. So is it good or bad? probably both.
You should check out What We Do in the Shadows. He stars in it as well as directs it. And it is a hilarious movie.
Trust me, it's not the alcohol. This seems to be what he's like all the time.
Tiffany Love did you watch Thor? What we do in the shadows is also good.
You gotta see "Hunt for the Wildepeople" and "Jojo rabbitt"
Oh shit, it's Viago! What we do in the shadows is one of my favourite comedies ever!! This guy is a genius
He also directed that movie!
Taika makes me so proud to be a New Zealander!
The fact that Taika is smashed at the end of this actually makes me crack up
This is still one of the best Taika Waititi interviews. You hit it out of the park!
I think what I love most about this interview is, A, How easy it was. It seemed like you two have been friends for years. B, HOW enthusiastic you both are. The look on his face when you said you cried at the scene on the bridge, he looked genuinely so happy by that emotive response. And C, the questions and atmosphere. Was a really interesting and funny watch. Thank you.
I have never never adored a director as much as Taika, ever
Wish I knew which interviews he did after this - also he looks like an absolutely lovely person to get drunk with
This is my comfort video
this interview was so delightful to watch
Love watching tipsy talk, it’s the best way too procrastinate x
This honestly might have been one of the best interviews I’ve seen with anyone ever. “Just open your stupid face and have words fall out” made me almost fall out of my chair 🤣
Better than every late night appearance he’s done. So so good well done Hazel
good god he's adorable, and this has to be one of my all time favorite interviews, all the jumpcuts make me want outtakes it looks like you both had so much fun ahhh
I can't believe I'm watching this shit two whole ass years later. This was AMAZING. One of the best interviews (in general) I've ever seen.
Same,2 weeks after you,what a novel concept,getting drunk in interviews,love it!
Glad to hear others also had a strong emotional reaction to the bridge scene with the Led Zeppelin song..I didn't exactly cry, but I definitely got teary and got chills through out the whole sequence, almost felt euphoric. I remember telling myself while it was happening "this is why I love the MCU". We need more awesome scenes with even more awesome music like that in the MCU.
this is by far the best tipsy talk you've done with a celebrity you guys had such a great dynamic i love itttt
I still love this interview. Watching it 3 years later it's still so much fun to watch
Taika Waititi is hands down one of my favourite director's, soo happy you did an interview with him, really made my day.
Taika means magic in Finnish
And Taika means Tiger or Tank in Māori, which his main ethnicity is.
Magic tank :)
He IS the Magic.
Means 'peace' in lithuanian
Peaceful tiger/ magical tank
The best line in this is yelling a a siren “stop doing crimes!”
Wait I remember hazel and tipsy talk from the videos she did with my favorite youtubers back in like 2012-2014 and now shes here interviewing taika margot robbie and saorise ronan?????? That’s amazing!!!
Was thinking the same thing! Hazel and Taika is so unexpected
taika must just leave people a little in love with him after every interaction, i wanna be hazel so bad now lmfao, this looked like such a lovely time ahhh
This. Is. Glorious. Hazel always manages to humanize these massive celebrities, which makes this series so amazing!
As soon as I saw the thumbnail I KNEW this was going to be a match made in heaven. So cool when you can tell that interviewees are genuinely having fun during a press tour lmao
😂😂I love how the ending just kinda fell apart... lmao I’m dying hazel😂😂😂
If Taika has a reality show I’d watch the shit out of it
When I was in high school we had to analyse BOY for exams and even after the traumatic experience of re-watching and interpreting every damn frame i can still laugh and love the movie now, he is so bloody great at what he does
The commentary on the DVD is excellent and it's just taika talking the whole time.
YES! I love Taika Waititi, this interview is the highlight of my day
so i've just come back to this video after roughly 2 years and after discovering more of taika waititi's work and becoming obsessed with everything he does. now i need both of them to teach me everything they know about making films and just life in general honestly. also the amount of chemistry between them was great. they talk like they have been friends for years
"Hey man, I'm Korg. We're getting out of here. Wanna come?"
this is how interviews should be done, just a genuine lovely chat!
honestly the single best promo interview i've seen.
He’s so chill and charismatic :P
I come back to this interview every few months or so, when I just need a guaranteed giggle, and I love every bit of it! Especially the freedom that Taika, and Hazel get to talk about non Thor subjects😊 Need more Tipsy Talk!!
I'm instantly in love with him
What we do in the shadows is my all time favourite film!
„Stop doing Crime!“ - Hazel Hayes 2017, Philosopher But seriously he seems like a very cool guy! This is an amazing interview
Honestly one of my favorites yet 😂 love watching the guest embrace the tipsy talk style and it was a really cool and unique insight into the film, I can't wait to see it!
As an Australian I feel like it’s a natural instinct to mimic/giggle at every Kiwi accent I hear. Whispers ‘Jiff’ to myself
I do that to the Aussies at work here in Perth,i say," opps,hang on,i'll speak Australian fo ya". :-)
The title page bit killed me!! It's so cool seeing New Zealanders out there in the big wide world making a serious name for themselves. After watching Boy when I was younger, to now seeing him direct a big bloody crazy superhero movie, it makes my heart happy.
A proper tipsy talk :D Love the tipsy part! Proper made me laugh. "Stop doing crime!" This is by far the best one, and I loved the one with the girls from Pitch Perfect - loved it, but this was gold. I think we all want to be scooped up like ducklings now.
This is my favourite interview, I love how during your interviews whoever you are interviewing is so relaxed because you always create such a nice atmosphere
This is the BEST Tipsy Talk yet! Even though the conversation was all over the place, I'm genuinely gonna go see the film in theatres now.
Best interview, it's 10 am and I suddenly have the urge to get drunk and talk about movies with somebody
What We Do In The Shadows; one of Taikas brilliant kiwi comedies, go check it out. Its so damn good. Not to mention, so damn proud of him getting into hollywood.
I've never seen someone struggle so badly to sit in a chair
I think this is my favourite tipsy talk ever. it's so natural but so engaging and interesting. it's so funny yet so informative and enlightening. also I want taika as my new best friend
That was amazing! I loved every second. I was laughing in disbelief.
i related so much when he said that he related to sunspot from the new mutants because he was brown. as a kid growing up with little to no proper representation in any sort of media, hearing him say that struck a cord with me. love this man
