I would like to be cryogenically frozen until season 2 is available, thank you.
ill join you tbh
me too, pls. give me a ticket
Count me in
I’m on board
wait for me
I can't believe he just said 'It was quite genuine because we both have father issues ourselves,' like he's talking about a book he likes. Amaze
same omg
and yes, that scene DIS make me cry so a+ acting 👏👏👏👏
I cried so much at the representation in this show. No queerbaiting. Can't thank Rhys, Taika and everyone included enough ❤ So much fun ❤
same and the non binary rep. just so so beautiful and moving and wholesome
This is why your generation is terrible.
@@emiliemae2676 Seriously. The seamless transition into using they/them for Jim was a level I couldn't dream possible.
@@lolitabubbles26 and when they came out to their nana and the nana was quite literally just like *shrug* jim,,,so u killed those scoundrels yet?
😭😭😭😭😭😭
4:52 “We both have father issues ourselves”
I love how he just says that so casually in an interview lol. There’s nothing wrong with it of course I’m just saying how it’s something so personal and has affected them and he’s like “oh yeah we know what that trauma is like” in an international interview lmao
That brought a tear to my eye.
As someone with father issues myself, I can confirm the absolute casualness with which he says it is just how it be
This show surprised me so much that I still can't think about it without tearing up. It's also making tumblr users VERY ACTIVE right now with the most beautiful content and analyses of the relationships in the show. A gift I needed
Yeah
I literally deleted my tumblr months ago, and I redownloaded the app just to consume Our Flag Means Death content. I was a little disappointed the first 2 weeks because there was really nothing. Ep 7 onwards though, it never stopped trending. It was fun to watch the growth of the fandom the gayer it got. 🥰
I love how it's just exploded!
It also made AO3 very… very… hum… active.
@@killdianette omg don't say that without dropping some links 😭 what are you favorites?
Rhys was phenomenal. He and Taika deserve nominations. Nominations and awards for the whole production!!!
I'm taking comfort from Taika's tweet talking about "the first season" 😁 He seems pretty confident that HBO will be happy to OK another season...in fact he said in one interview that he feels THREE would be perfect for all the character arcs! 🤗❤
I wanna see some other legendary pirates
omg pls
how much longer will i have to live for that 😭😭😭
@@milothephoenix258 yes i want to see some famous women pirates like mary read and anne bonny!
I STILL HAVE HOPE!!!
ITS BEEN RENEWED
I love how much enthusiasm Rhys Darby has shown for Stede all throughout his interviews. He really likes and understands the character and I think that's a reason the show holds up so well. Great stuff.
that restaurant talk scene was one of the sweetest romantic moments i’ve ever seen
I am so obsessed with this show I will die if there isn’t another season
literally same
i will not die just to SEE another season
No bc the idea of there being another season is legit what is keeping me alive
yo, it's been confirmed by hbo :D
@@SteamSigun I on Twitter I know I’m so excited
i KNEW the fireside restaurant scene was improvised, it felt so natural!!! these two have such a fun dynamic, love this for them!! here's to hoping for a s2 announcement!
rhys darby is sort of like my weird uncle, when i was a little kid i watched him on flight of the concords, when i was in high school i watched him in wrecked, and now i’m watching him live my dream of kissing taika watiti (:
I am absolutely obsessed with this show. I cannot wait for season 2.
SAME, except now I'm waiting for season 3 🥲
I have never loved a series more than I love Our Flag Means Death. Ever. I've already rewatched it several times and it has genuinely made me a happier, more confident person. It makes me feel so understood and cared for in a way I've never experienced before, and I've already made so many new friends by participating in the fandom. That's just the kind of magic good representation can have on people. Thank you with all of my heart to everyone who made this show possible! I can't wait for season 2.
So happy this show has done this for you! After being queerbaited so long, I feel the same.
The scene by the fire talking about opening a restaurant with fishing equipment and a gift shop is my favourite scene! I had a hunch it was improvised lol
This show is absolute madness and I loved every second of it.
so you’re telling me that blackbeard’s bar and grill and other delicacies and delights and fishing gear WAS IMPROV?? THATS MY FAVORITE SCENE AND YOU GUYS JUST DID IT ON THE SPOT?? RHYS AND TAIKA ARE SO TALENTED FR
I did not expect to have the series hit me like it did. It was magical and I can't wait for S 2
If this show doesnt get a season 2 im going to riot I literally adore this show so much its unreal
rhys and taika have done SO MANY projects together. i’m glad this one is getting so much recognition. you guys should really check out their other stuff tho!!
Ooo can you tell me the names of their other stuff?? At least ones you know :)
@@valeriverlx what we do in the shadows is one of the biggest ones that people love. it’s a great movie if you’ve never seen it before - it used to be my favorite movie and it’s mostly improv! :)
Taika also directed hunt for the wilderpeople which rhys is in, another great movie
taika also wrote/directed a few episodes of flight of the conchords which is my absolute favorite show!! it stars his best friend jemaine clement and bret mckenzie (the three met in college and have ben friends for years, mckenzie also wrote the songs for both muppet movies!) rhys plays a big character!
they’ve also done a few stand up shows together but idk if any of those have been filmed.
hope you check one of them out! :)
@@milkman8467 aaaaa thank you so much for answering !! I'm really thankful, I've been wanting to watch some new stuff and your comment is very helpful :) just yesterday I watched what we do in the shadows and it was great!! Again thank you for taking your time to answer
@@valeriverlx no problem at all!! 😊(sorry for the late reply!)
I’m yearning for more of this show
we need more promotion of this show, it is SO SO GOOD
For real, I had no idea it was even a show until the day it came out- and stumbled onto the trailer, thinking “I can’t wait until this comes out!” I was pleased I could watch the first two episodes IIRC, but I couldn’t believe it hadn’t been promoted more
I watched this show because I saw Rhys Darby, Taika, and Tim Heidecker were in it, and I love everything any of them are ever involved with. The romance angle took me completely by surprise, and my heart melted more and more every episode. I haven't been this emotionally invested in a show in years. I'll be anxiously awaiting confirmation of another season. Hopefully soon!
i love that the restaurant scene was totally improvised, its just such a rhys and taika thing to make up
we all needed season 2 yesterday. but seriously this show is amazing already have binged it twice and am very much planning on doing it again
Please get a season two. This is a perfect show to explore the beauty and perils of masculinity. We NEED this in our lives.
already rewatched the show twice over,, I LOVE IT SMM
I cried so hard at the finale
I love how Rhys and Taika have a strong friendship outside of the film its wonderful! :D
grabe talaga di ko ineexpect yung kiss and the fact that they love each other so much, akala ko aasa na naman ako mag queerbaiting pero nope 😩 Thank youu so much for creating a wonderful show 🏴☠️🏳️🌈
Every day I wake up in tears because season 2 isn’t out yet
This show was so absolutely FANTASTIC it emotionally destroyed me and I can't wait for the next season
rhys darby is the GOAT
Rhys, you have wonderful hair and your show is wonderful and like all of your fans I also will die if there isn't at least one more season but preferably eight. And, as Peter Sellers says to James Mason in Lolita, you have a most interesting face, good night.
Preferably 8
#SixSeasonsAndAMovie
He really does have wonderful hair
Rhys deserves an award for pulling off those glasses and that lapel. He is an advanced clothes-wearer for sure
HBO needs to renew this for many, many more seasons!
What a sweet man
Rhys was the alpha werewolf in the original movie. He’s so funny. They’ve been friends for a long time.
Hope to see the second season!
This show did everything right. Hey, HBO! Make some merch, or I'll be forced to buy some unofficial stuff. I WANT to advertise it for you.
Loved hearing him talk about the filming! Is it just me though or does anyone lese get distracted a lot by the animations? There are about 7-14 independently animated objects at any given point and that is not counting the actual interview which gets interrupted by clips twice per minute.. wow.
Everyone did so well on ofmd. I absolutely loved it!
I simply can’t understand why HBO still didn’t renew the show?? It’s a masterpiece
5:29 Rhys getting the line right to the rhythm is very manifesting
incredible representation in this series! loved it so much!
THE RESTAURANT SCENE WAS IMPROVISED
I wake up every day thinking about the next season of this show and Wwdits.
His hair.... Its so nice
God I need season two so badly
It's not until you see Rhys playing Steed that you realise how rare it is in Hollywood to have someone able to convey that pure wholesome optimism.
He seems so genuinely excited about the show! What a gift this show has been.
Rhys and Taika seem so genuinely lovely in their interviews 🥺
As a lgbtqiaa+, I love this show so much. It has good representation of our community. It’s also very heartwarming with other arcs of the story (stede’s struggles, blackbeard’s backstory). I love it so much
Great interview and beautiful still images from the show. Thanks
So good! Please let there be a season 2!
Everyone should watch this beautiful show 💖
Thank you so much for this! A gem!!
Obsessed with Our Flag Means Death 🤩 🥰
what a fantastic interview!
Beautiful, funny and uplifting is the best way to describe this show ♡
He is quite handsome
This show is perfection.
I really like serious Rhys
I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH 💕💕💕
I need Stede & Blackbeard Merch NOW!! LONG LIVE LONG LOVE BLEDE or Steard!!
"Blackbonnet"
We need Pop figures, stat.
Absolutely loved this show. Well worth a watch or 2.
Or 3 or 4
We all want a season two Please!!🙂
"uplifting" like i didnt SOB in episode 10 for hours and hours

Cannot wait to watch this !!
0:56

Me: 👁👄👁
Rhys: "...heads"
Me: 🥲

The long philippines biochemically tip because july nationally encourage apud a actually yoke. meek, shrill black
fun fact black beard wasn't the greatest he was most romanticized? yes? but not the greatest.
My soul really needed this show
