What’s not to love, he’s amazing❣️🥰

So smart, versatile, quick-witted, handsome and a fashion icon. He's got it all!

I thought that it was hilarious that Taika decided to play Hitler himself in "Jojo Rabbit", so as to spare that awkward casting call. No one else could have played imaginary Hitler quite like him! 😂🤣

The studio only agreed to green light the movie if Taika played Hitler

Love his recent interviews where he diverts the topic to talk about ofmd XD. You can tell he loves it so much and talks so positively about its representation

He is the first and so far only Director that I have ever watched everything he has done. Honorable mentions: the Thor interview with Jeff Goldblum, the Directors Guild panel, The Wilderness People & his first Oscar screenplay nomination 💯👍🏼👏🏼

I absolutely loved him in Free Guy - there’s a small moment in the film when he makes a ridiculous request of the art department and gets their attention by bellowing across the office ‘oh ART NERDS!’ I don’t know why that makes me giggle so hard, maybe his delivery like a medieval spoiled prince summoning a courtier, but it’s one I absolutely love

I love Taika … He’s incredibly funny and talented

What we do in the Shadows is one of my favourite films. A spin-off from this, I would also recommend 'Wellington Paranormal' (not Taika but similar mockumentary style and hilarious)

I’ve watched that film so many times, love it.

You have the glorious movie The Hunt for the Wilderpeople to show for his pride in New Zealand but you pick a friggin Moana clip? choices

The vampire murder trial was the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time. ‘Pre-meditated vampicide!’

Hitler would be SO angry to be portrayed by Taika Waititi, a Māori fulla from New Zealand. That's part of the beauty of it.

A Māori AND Jewish fulla

He is not dancing in "Boy". It is his Haka to Michael Jackson. Hakas are not just done before sporting events, but at Weddings, Funerals, and to honour someone.

He has the biggest personality of anyone I can think of

Anything Taiki does has a sweetness and humanity to it.

Taika is a sassy, beautiful treasure.

Hunt for the Wilderpeople!! How could it not even rate a mention? Taika and Sam Neill (plus Rhys Darby). My god, brilliant.

Taika is filmmaking goals - I am a super-indie filmmaker (my budget is donuts for the cast and crew, most of the time) and I absolutely want to work up to his level of skill and talent. He has an eye for film that I can only aspire to

Love him hes hilarious! And i Loved the new Thor movie love and thunder

I loved it 2

Taika's best work was "Our Flag Means Death", which was really groundbreaking. But all of his work is good, even the ads.

This man is purse chaos and I love him.

I remember watching "What We do in the Shadows" awhile back and thinking wtf did I just watch? Well I better watch it again and find out. That's the first I heard of Taika Waititi. I think he's a funny guy with a great sense of humor. I look forward to more of his work.

Love, love, love this man!

That lip sync was the bestest had me in stitches

I just love him ☺️

Recently, Chris Hemsworth had a mail-in signing through SWAU, and when Taika heard that he was signing stuff, Taika decided to tag along, and sign some stuff.

I have a very soft spot for him reading a letter about a guy getting a speed ticket (you have lots of letters that are emotional or hilarious read by Benedict Cumberbatch, Jude Law, Olivia Coleman, and lot of others but the one read by Taika Waititi was very much hilarious AND read with NZ accent). One of the best ways to start your day with a laugh if you ask me. :)

One of my favorite writer director I love all of his stuff

I've loved him and his work since the WWDitS short. Everything since then has been great. And the personal appearances on TV shows have been the gravy on the fries.

Taika has to be one of the most brilliant comedic minds of our time

He even married Rita just earlier this week!!!

If you have never seen Hunt for the Wildepeople, you have not lived. I saw Sam Neill talking about it on Graham Norton show and got it as soon as possible. Loved it and never realized that he did " What we do in the Shadows" movie. Then I searched out all his work and have never been disappointed until Love and Thunder. Hope that is just a blip PLUS DEFINITELY LOOK UP HIM ON SUPPORTING RACISM. Only he can make such a serious subject funny and thought provoking.

boy is my fav taika movie

He is awesome 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🦘👏🏼🦘🇯🇲🦘🇯🇲

OMG LOL the over pronunciation of his last name.

Tsunami (taika waititi): let's shake on it. 1...2...3... GET BACK TO WORK

And I can’t stop watching free guy which has the added benefit of pairing him with the delicious joe keery

has he done HotOnes?

Who is he and what does he do?!

Our Flag Means Death is my all-time favorite. It's brilliant, funny, inspiring, both heart-breaking and heart-warming, and it's so unbelievably unfair that it was canceled just before its last season. I hope the industry corrects that mistake soon enough and gives that story its proper ending.

Disney already ruined Star Wars

He transformed Thor into a very fun and watchable character, which fits into Marvel’s style. In previous movies Thor was way too serious and boring! Love Taika! He makes everything fun, with heart!
