Jemaine Clement on kids’ films, Flight of the Conchords and slowing down

Riley Scott2026-07-11T18:01:00.000Z

Jemaine looks knackered. Probably from carrying the whole NZ comedy scene on his back for 20 years.

Reagan Shaw2026-07-11T18:14:00.000Z

he says parents should think twice before taking kids to his films? mate that's just marketing genius, now everyone's gonna take them lol

Tom Harris2026-07-11T18:56:00.000Z

haha exactly. reverse psychology works on kiwis every time

Hana Stewart2026-07-11T18:33:00.000Z

Flight of the Conchords was the reason I got into film. Jemaine's a legend. But this movie stuff sounds mid tbh.

Hana Stewart2026-07-11T19:08:00.000Z

facts. at least he's not pretending it's some masterpiece like other hacks

River Cole2026-07-11T18:46:00.000Z

slow down? bloke hasn't done anything good since the early 2010s. maybe he should speed up.

Riley Scott2026-07-11T19:33:00.000Z

get stuffed mate. he's gold standard. show some respect.

River Cole2026-07-11T19:42:00.000Z

lol cope. the interview literally says he's tired and has a cold. read much?

Hayden Kelly2026-07-11T18:58:00.000Z

Jemaine's kids films are actually decent. My little ones watch Moana on repeat. Why's he hating on his own work?

Tom Harris2026-07-11T19:14:00.000Z

anyone else think this is just an ad for his new project? 'slowing down' my arse.

Riley Scott2026-07-11T19:27:00.000Z

dude's tired cause he's got a cold ffs. leave him alone. still more talent than most of us.

Hana Stewart2026-07-11T19:38:00.000Z

I actually like that he's honest about kids movies. Too many shill celebrities. Respect.

Reagan Shaw2026-07-11T19:52:00.000Z

maybe if he 'slowed down' he'd have time to write another season of Conchords. we've been waiting 15 years mate.

Reagan Shaw2026-07-11T20:35:00.000Z

that's what producers are for! get it done Jemaine

River Cole2026-07-11T20:04:00.000Z

getting boomer vibes from this interview. 'kids these days' energy.

Tom Harris2026-07-11T20:51:00.000Z

literally said he's 'recovering from a cold'. but sure, boomer vibes 👌
