Tommy Wiseau's "The Room"

DON'T TAHCH ME, MATHERFAHCKER!

YOOAH TEARING ME APAAAHHHHT.

The bit where he trashes the house and tosses the TV out the window had the entire cinema screaming with cheers like a rock gig. I was crying with laughter because suddenly the bed was downstairs instead of upstairs, whaaaaat the fuck.

LOL even that trailer is as all over the place as the actual plot! Like the Denny vs Chris-R thing - what the heck happened? WHERE DID HE GO?

And at the party - who the fuck was that guy who started lecuturing Lisa. WHO THE HELL WAS HE. No introduction, nothing.

TVs behind couches. Endless continuity gaffes. Bad green-screening. TERRIBLE SEX SCENES. Whats not to love.

He and his pals play with a football in a manner that I've personally never seen before.

loooollllz

Has anyone else here been to screenings? I am curious to know if the BJ thing was just a Melb thing or not - it was hella gross (and once you thought it you couldnt un-think it!)

I didn't notice it at the SF screening.

Australians be dirty.

lolllllll @ Patton <3

I've been to 3 or 4 of the portland screenings. I don't think that joke is over here, but I'm usually too drunk to notice.

after seeing Tommy Wiseau and his fat, flabby ass banging away at some barely-legal skank not once, but TWICE, in this film w/ some generic R. Kelly-clone slow jamz blaring in the background -- i knew that this film crossed SOME sort of line that should never be crossed.

you're a chicken CHEEP CHEEP CHEEP

Eisbaer, I can't believe you called Mladen Milicevic and Kitra Williams's immortal classic "You're My Rose" a generic R, Kelly clone. Shame on you.

YOU ARE MY ROSE
YOU ARE MY ROSE
YOU ARE MY ROOOOOOOSE

Well it was once technically seeing as they blatantly just re-used the footage from the first time around, lol.

Oh god the sight of his butt scoured my brain forever.

and yes, mike nelson and the rifftrax crew had some fun at the expense of the room:

lol @ the flower shop scene.

"How much is it?"
"It'll be eig---" "here you go! keep the change."

Oh hai guyz

Haiiiiiiii you mean

Does anyone else feel like the underwear story guy is a huge ham and maybe the only actor who realized how awful the whole production was? Every scene I see him in, he seems like he's super hamming it up.

His face during the blowjob is incredible.

Might go to the Red Vic midnight showing next weekend, I haven't seen it except for the clips above. Bringing some friends but worried they might hate me after...

Get ready for a highly participatory experience.

Presented in FeelAround

And do other screenings shout out implications at the end that Mark and Denny are giving Johnny's dead body a blowjob!?. Because they did here. Eww.

Yeah, this happened...
It was lots of fun! Love the underwear guy so much. And the scene with Tommy setting up the tape. And the line "your point of view is so different from mine!".

Oh I forgot about the tape thing, that was hilarous.

The film was *so consistently bad and incoherent* that I couldn't help wondering if it was deliberate, though people who worked on the film insist he really is just crap, so...

I came out completely baffled, like surely it takes quite a lot of effort and money to actually make a film yet to not give a flying fuck what anyone says in it or does or what it looks like...??

I love this movie so much.

Oh it's obviously real. There's way too much hurt shit in the flick and the guy himself is that cracked in real life to fake it.

And the line "your point of view is so different from mine!".

I was the only person at my showing who said this along with the movie.

You know what they say. Love is blind.

This movie is amazing at creating a very surreal atmosphere by trying to mimic everyday experiences (playing football, talking with your parents, having lots and lots of unfortunate sex) and failing in a completely unexpected way in every instance. I love the little details like the magical appearing vase, things that demonstrate a vision driven enough to continue on in the face of continuity issues. And the characters are all hilarious and tragic at once. A classic.

I want to see him and Christopher Walken in a buddy cop film. It would revive the genre.

call it Creep Out

i think the only actor who was aware of how awful and absurd the whole thing was was the "i feel like i'm sitting on an atomic bomb waiting for it to go off" guy.

Holy shit this is the best idea ever someone pls email Walken.

Meh. Just mean and not imho in the spirit of The Room and the joy it has brought my life.

zora and mortar?

my favorite scene

My fave part of that scene:
"I had a 2,000 dollar check I couldn't cash."
"Why not?"
"Because it was an out of state bank."

Ignoring the fact that not being able to cash an out of state bank check is preposterous -- it sounds like Tommy was writing the script, got to that part and thought -- hmmm, this won't be believable that he had a check he couldn't cash. I'll need to explain it. This is a good explanation!

Yeah I remember laughing hard at that!

My beloved DDR game shouts out random phrases including "Youaahhh tearing it up" but each and every time I think it's gonna be "Youahhh tearing... me apart lisaaa!"

So how did you meet Lisa?

Well, there was this out-of-state check, you see...
