The way [Bret McKenzie] and I work and the way [Taika Waititi] and I work are different. Bret and I, we don’t like the same movies. We like the same music but we don’t like the same comedy stuff often. He would rather watch Sex and the City (1998), whereas I could not sit through that. He loves Knocked Up (2007) and things about groups of friends having babies and stuff, whereas I look around at the audience in total confusion. But he walked out of Step Brothers (2008). At the time, I thought it was one of the funniest movies I’d seen in years. So we have to work on a subset of what we both find funny. I think sometimes that raises the quality because you get rid of all this crap. Me and Taika, we’re more similar in sense of humor.
