A Long Time Ago in a Pool Far, Far Away

In DC it shows at midnight on the third Friday of the month at the E St Cinema. Pregame at Hamilton's across the street, then grab a couple beers at the concession stand. Remember your spoons, sit in the back, and have fun!

I started watching this one night, when it was being played on TV (Adult Swim aired it, I think). It was absolutely terrible. I couldn't even watch it long enough to make fun of it.

The Room must be seen to be believed.

The Room is available on DVD, by the way.

Plastic spoons? I guess too many people were being injured with metal ones.

I seriously love this movie and show all of my friends. Thanks for the spotlight, Neatorama.

This movie provides enough ridiculus quotes to keep you and your friends laughing for weeks after you watch it. I convinced my wife and brother to watch it when I found a drinking game for it online. The rules were many but a couple gems were:

Drink everytime:
- you see Lisa's gross boobies.
- you see stock footage of the golden gate bridge
- Jhonny tells mark that he is his best friend.
- during all "I love you's"
and so on and so on. Awesome!

That unknown character that catches them kissing, those are the lines of the lawyer with glasses who disappears halfway through the film. The actor quit and Tommy just had a new guy read the rest of his part.

This is a huge hit among my friends - we own it on DVD and have watched it at least five or six times. The kicker was that Wiseau and Greg Sestero (Mark) came to do a Q&A at my school - I got to meet them and take pics, it was awesome. That night, they screened it at Coolidge Corner Theater in Boston along with another Q&A - i hope they screen it again there, it's as much fun as rocky horror if not more

My favorite part is at the end, when Denny screams "Tommy" instead of "Johnny" and no one really cares or even notices that he messed up. You know, just leave it in there, no one will notice.

Sadly, "The House That Drips Blood On Alex" isn't nearly as Wiseau-tastic.

Wow, sorry neat, but this is really old news. This went viral like 2 years ago.

What are you sorry about, Randi?

We published an article about Pearl Harbor with 60-year-old news. We published an article about the Rocky Horror Show, and that went viral about 35 years ago. And according to this article, The Room went viral in 2004, which is, hmmm, almost seven years ago.

@Randi - Not viral enough! This is the greatest post ever. I'm downloading the movie now and planning on doing a screening for my friends. Thank you Neatorama. It's never too late for the awesomely bad.
