#Taika cohen

[handlebarstiedtothestars]

I fell down a OFMD rabbit hole which led to a Taika Waititi rabbit hole and then somehow came full circle to OFMD again when I discovered Taika being held back by David Fane in the dreadful looking 2002 show “The Strip”

It’s literally homicidal baby Ed being held back by baby Fang I can’t

[3majorursaminor77]

Just thought I'd post this in case anyone hasn't already seen it. It's a TED talk about art and creativity that Taika did back in 2010 after Boy was released and it's one of my favorite videos to watch because it really does inspire me to get creative, plus it never fails to make me laugh because Taika is in peak comedic form here-showcasing his typical dry/goofy sense of humor. Also want to point out that he apparently has loved the name Jeff and/or Jeffrey for years.

[hang-on-lil-tomato]

many thanks to emi_rose, the fan who waded through this awful show to edit this Taika Supercut!

glad our boy has had some acting lessons since then! He’s come a long way!

nice view of Taika bum, and his real life tattoos, before the bird in his chest. But Jewish star on left arm, tribal ring on right, mandala on back.

Don't believe everything you hear and see on the internet, that's all I will say. There's lots and lots of misinformation that gets started and then spread around on the internet, mostly by ai bots and such. So y'all are basically listening to what an ai bot tells you and then spreading that information around like it's actually real and valid truths. Damn that is fucking embarrassing for all of you lol haha LMAO OMG that this fucking hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like, do y'all even have your own opinions or do you just follow what the rest of the internet does because like I said that shit is embarrassing, spreading around ai lies like they are real and shit. Get a life outside of spreading hate and lies about real people sharing their art with the world. You ungrateful little twerps. Have you ever created anything? I hope you have, but if you haven't I'd highly recommend it instead of wasting all your life on the internet. For real. Even his ex-wife seems to have started believing what the internet says and has also thrown him under the bus.

ANyone should be able to clearly see that his sense of humor is a typical Maori/New Zealander dry-tongue in cheek sense of humor but that generally seems to go so far over peoples' heads it's not even funny. No wait, I take it back, it's fucking hilarious. And he applies that sense of humor to a lot of his interviews which, again, goes way way over a lot of peoples' heads to the point where everyone constantly talks about how narcissistic and self involved he is. He is self-confident and all that which is actually a good thing I know people find that hard to believe but that is way different from someone who is a narcissist aka a person who only cares about themself and no one else. That's just typical Leo behavior, they have a lot of self-confidence and self-love but they equally dole out that love and affection for their loved ones as well. I know this from experience because my older sibling is a Leo rising. Trump for example is a textbook narcissist. Taika is definitely not.

ALso, OMG about this fucking public letter thing AGAIN. This happened last fall and I am still fucking hearing about it. Literally hundreds of celebrities signed that thing yet he seems to be the only one getting all the flack for that. Hmmm I wonder why. *cough* racism! *cough cough* Virtual signaling at its finest y'all. Maybe spread some actual information about Palestine and Sudan and Yemen and Congo and all these other countries that are in crisis instead of shitting on some celebrity because in your eyes he's not doing enough. He's doing so fucking much for indigenous folks for real, working to make a platform for them to use through his own platform. But there's only so much one person can do and he is clearly burning out over the amount of projects he keeps piling on. Seriously, you guys need to really get a fucking life already. One that doesn't constantly revolve around the fucking internet.

I don't know enough about Lin Manuel Miranda to say, although I liked him a lot in Dark Materials, I believe that's the only thing I've actually seen him in though. He seems like a real good egg too though.

as a pacific islander taika waititi is so fucking embarrassing he's like our lin manuel miranda. so much of the genocide in palestine reminds me of america's nuclear testing in the pacific & military occupation of hawaiʻi (and that's just the start of the comparisons from palestine to the pacific) and it not only breaks my heart but makes me even more determined to fight for a free palestine. for him to say "why should I care about their issues when they don't know about mine" is fucking disgusting. I can't believe how self-centered he is, his indigenous identity is apparently only meaningful when it comes to movie deals. mai i ke kahawai, a i ke kai 🇵🇸🤝🌺

"he's like our lin manuel miranda" HELP 💀💀💀 LMAOOOO

and yeah you're so right. his ignorance is really on another level. i'm sorry he's one of the big pacific islander faces in the celebrity world. obviously he does not represent all of you. thank you for standing with palestine <3 inshallah we will all be free together

It took an IRL-decade, several hundred canon-centuries, new names, and different Taika-verses, but ed teach finally avenged himself from pop-pop.

Love that journey for him.

you're telling me taika david cohen and rhys montague darby fucking kISSED UNDERWATER?????????? YOU'RE TELLING ME THEY STILL MANAGED TO LAY THE AFFECTION ON THICK AND DO ALL THAT ROMANTIC ACTING WHILE THEY WERE UNDER-FUCKING-WATER??????????????

[jaskierx]

Amazing! The comment section for Taika's post lamenting the snubbing of his butt is full of nothing but positivity! There's fans and other celebrities alike coming in to congratulate Taika for the WWDITS and Rez Dogs nominations and condolences on the buttsnub. Samba! Cohen! Antony Starr! Anthony Carrigan! Rhys liked it too! Taika's even replied! It's a lot of fun and positivity right now just like old times and I hope it lasts.

yes i noticed that! not a dickhead in sight. just people coming together to enjoy taika’s ass. nature is healing ❤️

[hang-on-lil-tomato]

wow, taika is on fire!

Dismissed.

[strawberryqueen00]

Hell no we are not letting this OFMD finale distract from that THIS LETTER.

Had a signature from Taika Waititi. I understand the sensitivity here this issue with Taika being Jewish(and that’s not my place as someone that’s Not Jewish or in those regions to condemn him on that perspective’s behalf) but this letter is directly bastardizing the situation.

Now, when there is a major production from a major figure in this platform that did this, is when we can make the most impact. Remember our values, even when those values involve a show that is strengthening the LGBTQ community.

Because this letter tore down the strength of the movement in support of Gaza. There are going to be so many people that saw this letter and take it completely uncritically, unchallenged.

Standing up for our values means sacrificing our interests, holding accountable the things we enjoy.

And also. I don’t want to see ANYONE. Being fucking antisemitic or racist towards Taika here. That is never appropriate and absolutely inexcusable behavior. You should he ashamed if you think that’s okay even after Taika’s actions.

[Text of Letter]

October 23, 2023

Dear President Biden, We are heartened by Friday's release of the two American hostages, Judith Ranaan and her daughter Natalie Ranaan and by today's release of two Israelis, Nurit Cooper and

Yocheved Lifshitz, whose husbands remain in captivity. But our relief is tempered by our overwhelming concern that 220 innocent people,

including 30 children, remain captive by terrorists, threatened with torture and death.

They were taken by Hamas in the savage massacre of October 7, where over 1,400

Israelis were slaughtered - women raped, families burned alive, and infants beheaded. Thank you for your unshakable moral conviction, leadership, and support for the Jewish people, who have been terrorized by Hamas since the group's founding over 35 years ago, and for the Palestinians, who have also been terrorized, oppressed, and victimized

by Hamas for the last 17 years that the group has been governing Gaza. We all want the same thing: Freedom for Israelis and Palestinians to live side by side in peace. Freedom from the brutal violence spread by Hamas. And most urgently, in this

moment, freedom for the hostages. We urge everyone to not rest until all hostages are released. No hostage can be left behind. Whether American, Argentinian, Australian, Azerbaijani, Brazilian, British, Canadian, Chilean, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Eritrean, Filipino, French, German, Indian, Israeli, Italian, Kazakh, Mexican, Panamanian, Paraguayan, Peruvian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, South African, Spanish, Sri Lankan, Thai, Ukrainian,

Uzbekistani or otherwise, we need to bring them home.

Sincerely,
