It makes me so incredibly mad that Thor Love and Thunder being kinda bad has made the internet think Taika Waititi is a terrible director or refer to the various corny lines that plague thr mcu as "taika lines" when like, Taika is genuinely such a fucking amazing director snd you only have to see his other movies to know that.
Like yeah Jojo Rabbit was fantastic, it was nominated for best picture for a reason but i think his earlier, more kiwi stuff is really his peak.
What we do in the shadows (the og movie) is probably one of the funniest films ive ever seen, its really well done.
Hunt for the wilderpeople is a fsntastic mix of funny and sad.
But my favorite will forever and always be Boy (2010), a movie that will never fail to make me genuinely weep. It's probably my favorite movie of all time, such a painful ride but also such a joyus one. He also plays a main character in this and gives imo his best performance by far.
Like look, besides love and thunder, all of his other films have been hits, so dont act like hes a shit director just because he had one miss.
(Also dont act like yall didnt love ragnarok, yall fucking loved ragnarok because it was great)

[orv spoiler - tw // suicide ]
no but like kdj thinking himself the source of all his loved ones misery and trying to end his own life to end the oldest dream and bringing his own sword up to fucking kill himself. and its like a grand opening, the final build up of all his self sacrificial tendencies as the curtains are shoved aside and those acts are now plainly revealed to be what it truly is - suicidal. repeated and desperate. attempts. him trying to kill himself. 15 years old and jumping out of a window. 28 and dying over and over again. because kdj lived as if he was living on borrowed time and had never valued his life compared to his loved ones, trading it easily as if his death was an easy bargain.
but of course it isnt.
yoo sangah says, "we're friends."
jung heewon says, "that man is the world i wish to save."
han sooyoung says, "this story is just for that one reader."
and yoo joonghyuk and kimcom reach out and say, "you're kim dokja."
there is no value to a human life because you cannot assign a value to it. the idea of human life being "worth" something is antithetical to orv's anti-capitalist message. so kimcom does not go save him because he is "valuable".
so why does kimcom go out of their way to write the story? why does yjh and biyoo spend countless years scattering kdj's story?
they still dont know him fully, they never can. you cannot know another person entirely even if you read everything about them. they and the world has already been saved, they can move on to a peaceful future. they almost did too. they can let go of grief and someone who probably brought them more pain than anyone else. so why? why for the one they don't know, the 1% they don't have memories of?
because it matters. every bit of him matters. because he is a human life. his story will always matter.
there is no saving someone just because they saved you. there is no transactional value or a simple you did/can do/will this for me so i have to. they are at peace and they will still choose him, to reach and save him. it is unconditional love and endless devotion and it is enough.
kim dokja, you deserve to live. kim dokja, your happiness matters. kim dokja, you are loved.
