"The Room"

Loved It!

 Tommy Wiseau is the best sounding actor since Terence Hill!

I had posted this very late last night and did not remember to comment on why I enjoyed this film.  The truth is that the film is very tragically bad, but I am enamored with Tommy Wiseau's ego.  It's fascinating and enjoyable to observe this man's complete disconnect with reality and rules of motion picture storytelling. Having known the overwhelming amount of control Tommy had going into the picture was a key factor in my enjoyment of the movie.   The closest thing I can think to compare the strange feeling I get watching the combination of poor acting, directing, script, plot,  is that uncanny valley thing, but in reverse. With "The Room", it's a positive emotional response I am getting when I logically should just turn the crap off. My mind and reason knows It's a really horribly terrible movie, but something is slightly off that makes me attracted to it.  I feel that I am about to have a long strange relationship with "The Room" experience.
