We’ll arrange two round-trip domestic airline tickets, food and lodging included. I’ll send you everything else above, of course. Let’s sit on the beach and get to know each other. We can talk about BOY or anything else that’s on your mind.

Taika's making a couple of appearances in NYC for anyone who's interested:From Boy's FB page: The one and only writer/director/star of 'Boy' the Movie - yes, Taika Waititi - will be live and in person in NYC at the SoHo Apple Store (72 Greene Street) at 7PM on Feb 22nd to talk about his film and more with indieWIRE's Eric KohnAnd you can buy tickets to a screening of BOY with a Q&A with Taika on March 1 here

I don't know if this is posted yet, but I just caught it this morning. A nice video interview with Taika about Boy and way into the 21 minute interview he is asked about the Vampire movie with Jemaine and a few Conchord questions. http://ftp.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=87487

...For the 393 backers who pledged $1 in return for me thanking them at night before going to sleep. I did that last night, with all 393 of you. I thanked you all in my own special way, in my mind, and from memory I think everyone had a great time. There was a lot of stuff to clean up afterwards and of course it was messy and the walls needed wiping, but you all consented and approached it with open minds. Thank you for a night I will never forget.

Hope you're all well and happy.

Now you've all participated in a three hundred ninety four-way.

In his prior project update he listed additional cities in which Boy would be opening. The closest one to me is 3 hours away.
