I love this damn movie… Apparently at some Q&A they held after a screening, a person asked Tommy Wiseau how he came up with this comedy and how they were are able to act it all without laughing. With a dead ass straight face, he responded "it's not a comedy." He was serious. This is all supposed to be serious, which makes it even funnier.
kspooner26 It was during their first couple of smaller, private screenings once the movie was finished. I think Tommy's rolled with it nowadays since it's more hilarious how bad it is.
Lisa's mom will forever and always be my favourite character of all time in any movie. And her famous line _"I got the results of the tests back. I definitely have breast cancer."_
Man, I love Pewd's paused Intro... The Gratest... MOVIEEEE... of ALLLL... TIME!!! Girl, this is deep. But I ask to myself if Felix is sick... Yes, mental sickness like depression or sort of it. The last videos are so boring, so void, so... whatever.
That's also what I'm wondering. It lacks of the studio, of other people getting involved. It seems like he is just publishing old stuff. Poor Pewds. I mean I wouldn't be bothered if, I don't know, the content seemed new or whatever, but it doesn't feel so, that's why I need to see something else than Pewds and his computer...
@user deceased Nearly but then I felt ill on Halloween night so I couldn't leave my dorm (I was in twelfth grade in boarding school last year, when I made my original comment)
If I went this route I would make a movie about a love octagon.. Me and 7 women. 137 love scenes, because why not. Now that I think about it why even have any other dudes in the movie. I'll start a go fund me campaign right away..!
The greatest scene of all time 1:00 "Hi" "Can I help you?" "Can I get some roses?" "Oh hi johnny I didn't know it was you" "Here you go" "That's me" "How much is it?" "18 dollars" "Here you go keep the change. Hi doggy" "You're my favorite customer" I TRIED SO HARD NOT TO LAUGH
I put this in cause I had to just so you can hear it again and again and again and again. Then people at school will haunt you with these lines. The meme will go to far to world domination. Or I'm just stupid
I enjoyed kissing 40 year old men in my early twenties, the award is more of a Tommy-specific thing tbh. Must've been like making out with a lump of warm mumbling plasticine.
One of my favorite things I learned about this movie is that Tommy Wiseau apparently wanted to do a sub plot where Johnny is a vampire and wanted to have a flying car scene(?) but dropped it when he realized they didn’t have the money to do a flying car scene. I would give anything to see it.
I got the most hilarious ad during this: Me: **Looks away** Lisa: “what do you think I should do?” Pizza Hut add: “Eat a stuffed crust pizza backwards!”
Bought this film from Tommy's site. Not only did I get the DVD, but ads for his underwear line. In a baggie that itself was an ad for his underwear line. And an autographed headshot that reads "Love is blind." And the pic was printed on the back of an ad for his underwear line. Genius.
Yea I ordered a pack of boxers from his site a year ago in December and they finally arrived 4 months later with ad for his movie and a personally addressed headshot saying love is blind. I thought the reason it took so long was that he does this all by himself and just has a room full of boxes and packaging and he can’t keep up, and when I received the package it was so sloppy and goofy with his handwriting on it too I realized that I was right that’s exactly what he’s doing. An all around lovely experience though
nazi, satanist and drug dealer, what a shame, I'm going to watch Jacksepticeye now. The only thing that embarrasses me in the guy is the fucking green hair
Uhhh, I'm pretty sure felix just demolished your head... I am no meurosurgeon, so just take down Tommy instead, so he will have no choice but to keep you his right hand man!
6 years later and I’m coming back to thank you, Felix. 😂 You convinced me to watch this movie and now I have it on dvd and got to experience seeing it in theater. It’s so funny and has brought me so much joy. Thank you for introducing me to this horrific masterpiece of a movie. 😂
thanks to you I watched the room, watched the disaster artist, and bought the disaster artist book and being a part of this fandom is a joy. BLESS YOU PAPA PEWDS
I just stumbled upon this Pewds classic in my YT recommended just a mere 3 days after watching "the room". I can tell you Pewds is spot on when summarizing this movie, you can't just appreciate it once. It takes time to marinate.
emmebugg Yeah you're right. Just trying to give an example of how little most dudes care about someone watching. As the eminent scholar MC ride says "FUCK WHO'S WATCHING"
Tbh, going to a cult screening / midnight screening of this film is genuinely really enjoyable and its really fun to throw spoons and scream Go go go go go go go go go when the camera keeps panning every 2 seconds
I’m convinced this movie had to be a front for some kind of money laundering scheme. I can’t comprehend how anyone could perceive this as a serious film
conspiracy theory: Tommy wiseau is the future version of pewdiepie, who buys a time machine with all his ad revenue cash and makes his own favourite movie
pastel blue coco Literally was thinking that while watching the video. And that's why he makes the room in the first place. Because he knows it'll be successful
The thing with bad movies is, they're trying to get things right but failing on a few key points. The Room succeeds in getting EVERYTHING wrong. And watching Q&A with the cast, they explain how precise Tommy wanted their lines to be. There is no improv in this film; nothing is haphazard. This movie was crafted. Three love scenes in the first 20 minutes, ludicrous blocking (the scene where all the gents stand in the room in their tuxedos is brilliant), bad dialogue, new and irrelevant characters appearing out of nowhere, the final scene where he closes the box and then opens it again... Too many nuggets to list. People didn't know what to make of this movie at first, because we're used to being spoon-fed everything (we ask questions like, 'Is this supposed to be funny?'). More people seem to appreciate it now, which is great because it means art and subtlety are still alive. Apparently the bulk of the film's 6 million dollar budget was spent on a billboard ad by the LA freeway. I think the ad was up there for 3 years or something. That alone is inspiring. Unbelievable creativity and balls :)
Demonyk Productions; that or they'll just call him sexist for "objectifying women"...cus some feminist can't grasp the concept that people find other people attractive
At least people finally see what we’ve been talking about for 20+ years. It’s so bad it’s actually good. He, almost single handed, started an entire new genre of film making.
