Eagle Vs Shark

Why I heart Taika Waititi

From Bits on the side for that tingling sensation comes this funny email from the one and only Taika Waititi. Why can’t funny guys e-mail me like this?

His e-mail reads:

Kia ora,

My name is Taika Waititi, director of ‘Two Cars, One Night’. I’m a Maori. Are you a Maori? If not then please stop reading this and find someone Maori to translate it for you.

So, I’ve made a film called ‘Eagle vs Shark’, and because I’m Maori I recommend all Maori should go and see it. I’m also part Jewish so I recommend it to Jews.
I also have black hair so people with black hair will probably enjoy it too. And I have this weird rash so people with…..anyway, you get the point….
The film is a comedy about two displaced outsiders searching for romance (within the context of post-colonial New Zealand) and I know that Maori would appreciate the content (especially the fart joke).

Watch the trailer here. Visit My Space here. Win tickets here.

It starts this Thursday, August 16.

Please go and see it, and tell all your friends and whanau.

Arohanui,

Taika
