As someone who disliked Jojo Rabbit (plenty of critics did like it, hence why it won awards up to winning an Oscar!), I don’t think any negative review I could write could sum up why I disliked it more than the aura of his own words here.
Taika Waititi has called critics “sad lost souls” after ‘KLARA AND THE SUN’ became his lowest rated film ever on Rotten Tomatoes.
“I haven't read a review of anything aimed at me or my peers in almost 15 years. But I do listen to the people.
So this Halloween, let's spare a thought for those sad lost souls who couldn't achieve their dreams of becoming artists, and thus became critics. The same people who also hated Jojo Rabbit!
Irrelevant. Out of touch. Obsolete. In the bin.”
This week’s Sarasota area concert picks include a Have Gun, Will Travel Halloween show, “Thriller” and Jerry Garcia tributes, a reggae triple-bill, another Damon Fowler benefit, and the return of Ringling Underground. heraldtribune.com/story/ente…
