I did notice that he really relied on his eyes to express emotions and it kind of helped tie in to the cool mystery of Blackbeard at first. Like he came across as seeming bemused by everything Stede did bc he wasn't showing a lot of lower facial expressions.
i really they release these flags as merch or whatever.. i'd love to put them up in my room... this feels like back when game of thrones was a thing and people went around buying flags of the houses :)
I didnt see “creator” under David’s name and just thought he was the weirdest interviewer I’d ever seen. Like he kept slowly talking about his views while the other two listened politely xD
I so appreciate their easy and flexible masculinity. Kissing your buddy? Just another day at work. I love that it's not even a thing they necessarily talk about much. Just what you do as an actor. And also, they're so easy with each other, it's not even much to think about at all. Seeing yourself reflected as a queer person in media... man. It does something to your heart
I think it was an excellent idea to have two actors who know each other and like each other play strangers just meeting. Bc then onscreen, the easy chemistry and knowing each other from a long time comes off as an instant connection between two strangers. It worked perfectly for Stede and Blackbeard bc now you have two people who shouldn’t mesh well become basically friends within the first few minutes of each other. Suddenly these two strangers have this special connection that leaves the other characters scratching their heads to how in the world it happened. (Spoilers) and also makes it believable that they could fall in love so quickly
Honestly blows my mind how they hadn't done much drama prior to this, because I thought they pulled off the dramatic/emotional scenes REALLY well. Like, my god.
hearing david describe how he wants the show to build on itself and be truly heartfelt and meaningful while also being funny just warms my heart. that’s exactly how i feel about TV as well so it’s amazing to see that there’s a creator out there making the exact sort of stuff that i feel the industry has been missing. this show is probably the best i’ve ever seen, no joke.
the funny part is if he had said boat it would not have narrowed down what the shot was. I guess we could assume that meant stede went back to sea but that's not exactly shocking.
7:15 With hindsight I'm pretty sure they're talking about when Stede takes a rowboat to get back to Edward at the end! Taika sounds like he's stopping himself from saying he helped Rhys into the boat.
'its gonna be one of the coolest things on TV right now' I'm still in a state of absolute shock (in a a good way) over it tbh and would absolutely say he's coorect
Their on screen chemistry is so good. Honestly, pretty much everything about this show is top notch. And it has the one thing that's necessary to making a good story for me: it gets me invested in the characters.
Aww, Rhys has The Wes Anderson Collection on his shelf! I saw in a GQ interview that The Life Aquatic is his favorite film; Stede Bonnet and Steve Zissou are kinda similar in a way. I'd love to see Rhys in a Wes Anderson film!
@@k4eru20 no quite succession, but nearer that than OFMD tone wise. it's a drama with comedic moments, and a healthy measure of self-awareness. the writing is insanely good imo, it takes a lot of notes from classical greek tragedies!
@@k4eru20 black sails is genuinely one my favorite shows I’ve watched. it’s very dramatic but has comedic moments too. gay-pirates wise, it’s pretty good!
We need more interviews from these guys now that all the episodes are out. I want to see them talk about everything past episode 5... especially the finale!!
I love absolutely everything that's been done with this show. I'm so SO happy to see their wonderful chemistry on screen. Hilarious, heartbreaking, and one of the most enjoyable shows I've ever watched. You can feel the fun & heart of the actors bleeding through the screen.
I think Taika is possibly the funniest person currently living. Its like three in the morning and I'm making a sound that would work as foley for a seal.
It’s interesting how people curate the collection of things behind them for video interviews. I imagine them asking their family in advance, “I need things that make me look FUN!” - “But you are fun, Dad!” - “Books on finance and fixing things don’t look fun! Help me now, obedient child!”
This video warmed my heart ❤️ I really appreciate all the work they did to make Our Flag Means Death possible! Truly, this show means a lot to me. And we need season 2!
It's the confidence that sells it for me. I'm pretty sure it's meant to convey the over the top theatrics of being the infamous Blackbeard. I mean, the full leather macho biker outfit SHOULD be ridiculous. But he has such swagger that it's hot.
This makes me appreciate Taika's acting even more. His face was so goddamned expressive and he didn't even use half of it! Unreal
I did notice that he really relied on his eyes to express emotions and it kind of helped tie in to the cool mystery of Blackbeard at first. Like he came across as seeming bemused by everything Stede did bc he wasn't showing a lot of lower facial expressions.
This show is so good and so sweet and so good. We need a season 2 ASAP!!
Season 2? Season 1 is done?
@@rc8s yeah, episode 10 is finale
it comes soon :D:D:D
Season 2 in october😊
are we gonna talk about that David has a flag with a cat behind him? that's so sweet
It looks like THE flag to me!
@@elizabethlensky6616 YES IKR
i really they release these flags as merch or whatever.. i'd love to put them up in my room... this feels like back when game of thrones was a thing and people went around buying flags of the houses :)
"Yeah, cats are terrifying! Because they're witches, and they've got knives in their feet."
My next sewing project is to make a replica of the cat flag. Possibly with the bloodstains... I think my feline owner would approve!

omg lmaooo
lmao saaaaaame! in another interview i was like who is this guy he's a very odd interviewer

“Helping Rhys get in the bo- the thing”

This show is honestly SO good, underrated as hell!!! So pumped for the rest of the season, I hope it gets renewed 🤞
Honestly blows my mind how they hadn't done much drama prior to this, because I thought they pulled off the dramatic/emotional scenes REALLY well. Like, my god.
Ahh, Taika and Rhys in their cute cozy sweaters talking about their sweet, sweet show. What lovely guys 😌

I love this show so much and I wish my friends would LISTEN TO ME and watch it too because I don't want to shut the hell up about it
Sameee
Same 😂
SAME
Twitter, Tumblr, & A03 are *flooded* w/fans. Come play w/is!
SAME
the show takes you to unexpected places, and its such a cool journey.. taika's acting was amazing
I like how Taika catches himself spoiling the last shot of the season at 7:16
the funny part is if he had said boat it would not have narrowed down what the shot was. I guess we could assume that meant stede went back to sea but that's not exactly shocking.
i'm really gonna need some post season interviews now that the finale's aired!! i wanna know!!
Yes please
It’s so wonderful to see Rhys get a real shot at something tremendous like this show
7:15 With hindsight I'm pretty sure they're talking about when Stede takes a rowboat to get back to Edward at the end! Taika sounds like he's stopping himself from saying he helped Rhys into the boat.
This show is amazing?? Taika and Rhys' chemistry are off the chart and I can't stop rewatching it. I hope season 2 comes soon 💕
how are all three of them so good looking i literally don't know where to look
'its gonna be one of the coolest things on TV right now' I'm still in a state of absolute shock (in a a good way) over it tbh and would absolutely say he's coorect
This show is INCREDIBLE and Taika’s acting actually broke my heart - phenomenal! Gosh season 2 can’t come quick enough
1:24 this part when David talks about new zeland accent and try to imitated IT WAS SO TAIKA.
i just noticed the cat flag behind david

0:14 that's so cute i love that he thinks i'm gonna watch more pirate shows because of this and not more character-driven comedy dramas
only gay pirates from now on for me
Maybe black sails
@@kay-jay1581 been hearing black sails has a similar tone to succession, all things considered gay pirates-wise,, would u say this is accurate
@@k4eru20 no quite succession, but nearer that than OFMD tone wise. it's a drama with comedic moments, and a healthy measure of self-awareness. the writing is insanely good imo, it takes a lot of notes from classical greek tragedies!

"Welcome to Jumanji!"
Love how Rhys has got the Jumanji box on the shelf there.
We need more interviews from these guys now that all the episodes are out. I want to see them talk about everything past episode 5... especially the finale!!
I love absolutely everything that's been done with this show. I'm so SO happy to see their wonderful chemistry on screen. Hilarious, heartbreaking, and one of the most enjoyable shows I've ever watched. You can feel the fun & heart of the actors bleeding through the screen.
The fact that he has a cat flag in the background for this interview is just... * chefs kiss *
these guys are absolute legends, what they did with this show is just TOP TIER. I am obsessed and I can't wait for more!
david jenkins looks like he could be in his late 20s he looks amazing
I think Taika is possibly the funniest person currently living. Its like three in the morning and I'm making a sound that would work as foley for a seal.
No because why does this metaphor go so hard
SO THE USE OF THE KIWI ACCENT IN A PIRATE SHOW WAS INTENTIONAL
i could sit and hear them talk about this show for hours
Can't WAIT! Love Rhys SO MUCH!!
I just finished binge watching this show - there's nothing else quite like it. I loved every minute of it!
I’m dying to hear what their fave parts were past episode 5 now that it’s all out
watching them try so hard not to spoil the last shot is my fav
we need more interviews of them!!!! ones where they talk about fav moments from the last 5 episodes more
A show that is full of beautiful people and beautiful accents cannot wait for the next season ❤❤❤
This show is pure joy.
It’s interesting how people curate the collection of things behind them for video interviews. I imagine them asking their family in advance, “I need things that make me look FUN!” - “But you are fun, Dad!” - “Books on finance and fixing things don’t look fun! Help me now, obedient child!”
they both amazing actor!! love em
Definitely believe it's one of the best tv shows that's been made
Rhys’ hair in this interview makes me feel so many things 😭
I binged watched the whole season and it’s SO GOOD. Can’t wait for season 2
They are adorable ☺️
Aw, I love that Rhys has a Jumanji game in the background! 👀😁
I fiend for more interviews by this whole crew!
It's honestly unbelievable they didn't give them 3 seasons. This show is so good
LOVED THIS SHOW. PLEASE GIVE US MORE
Wow I need season 2 so badly...all three of these guys are genius
THE FACT THAT DAVID HAS THE CAT FLAG
this show is so funny and has so much heart
We love the scene you weren’t allowed to talk about too!
6:30 the sunset scene .... u r all not slick
god i love this show so much, i can't wait for more!!!!!!!
Love this show so much!!
The cat flag in Davids background🥰🥰
This cast aaa i love them so much
I didn’t have my focus on the screen, but I heard something fall and immediately thought Taika… then looked and saw that his face was like 😳
This video warmed my heart ❤️
I really appreciate all the work they did to make Our Flag Means Death possible!
Truly, this show means a lot to me.
And we need season 2!
Great interview about an amazing show.
We all want season 2 let’s face it
Is Taika drinking water from a wine glass
omg the club penguin music. love that
best show ever i'm completely obsessed
I see Rhys is a Catan fan, excellent~
lmao taika is so me in the first minute of this i cannot sit still
we need a seaon 3
It's when he takes a shot from a wine glass for me
Goddamn, Davis is so beautiful
So, New Zealanders are down under Canadians.
David kinda looks like Jacksfilms mixed with Brendon Urie doesnt he
"The sound of kindness!"
Yes, or Lord of the Rings. 😅
sound track is inspired and if I was Taika's wife I would ask him at least once to dress up for me in his Blackbeard costume (hot, hot, hot)
It's the confidence that sells it for me. I'm pretty sure it's meant to convey the over the top theatrics of being the infamous Blackbeard. I mean, the full leather macho biker outfit SHOULD be ridiculous. But he has such swagger that it's hot.
He’s not married any more, but I’m sure Rita Ora is taking advantage! 😜
Rhys's tag should've said Gentleman Pirate instead of Stede Bonnet
is that shot at 2:59 of Pete playing tennis or whatever in the show??
Yeah, it's in episode 1 I think..
Rhys was the alpha werewolf in the original movie. They’ve been friends for a long time.
I need taika's sweater, does anybody know where is it from?
I don't know, but I want Rhys's jumper because... flamingos.
the wine glass for water
nooiiicee
It’s a great show
PAST EPISODE 5 !!!!!!!!!!!!
Is that the cat flag?
❣️❣️❣️
