With not much else to go on, the only reason I am interested in the upcoming romantic comedy Eagle vs. Shark is because the film stars FOTC's Jemaine Clement. The guy is hilarious, making me curious to see how well he performs in a feature film.
Eagle vs. Shark One-Sheet
Eagle vs. Shark, directed by Academy AwardŽ-nominee Taika Waititi (the short, Two Cars On Night), is a wry comedy that chronicles the quirky romance of two awkward misfits, Lily (Loren Horsley), a shy fast-food restaurant cashier, and her crush, Jarrod (Jemaine Clement, HBO's One Night Stand: the Fight of the Conchords), an electronic store clerk. On the day Lily gets fired from her job at Meaty Boy, she musters up the courage to attend Jarrod's annual "come as your favorite animal" costume party. The dressy affair sparks the beginnings of a romance as well as a small journey for the pair to Jarrod's quiet hometown, in which Jarrod plans to seek revenge on an old nemesis and where Lily unwittingly finds herself stranded amongst Jarrod's family of eccentrics.
