Just went to a special showing of The Room with a Q&A with Greg Sestero, and along with learning that Mr. Sestero is lovely man who has a lot of heart and a great deal of care for his friend’s work, I also learned these tidbits of lore:
- During production, the placeholder music in the sex scenes was Bon Jovi
-apparently there is a production cut with the Bon Jovi music and even longer sex scenes on a VHS tape that Sestero has, but is currently misplaced
- Greg Sestero has seen Columbo
- The “Oh Hi Mark” scene took 36 takes
- The Chris R scene took 3 weeks to film, and the one scene that was cut from the film was an alley scene with Chris R, which would have introduced the character earlier in the film
- The movie is 99 minutes long to meet a “hollywood standard.” Apparently Wiseau told Sestero, upon hearing that his new film Miracle Valley was 88 minutes long, he told him that he was making a big mistake
- Tommy Wiseau likes ham sandwiches
- Sestero and Wiseau are still friends. Wiseau also talks to Sestero’s mother at length on occasion
- The screenplay for The Room was written while the two were roommates in LA. Apparently Wiseau was quite an eccentric fellow to live with!
-When Sestero first informed Wiseau that he had landed a lead role in a big project and was being flown out to Romania to film, his first reaction was to ask for candy
It was an honor to meet Greg Sestero in person, and his dedication to his fans and to his friends is admirable. I look forward to seeing more of his films in the future!

On June 27, 2003, The Room premiered in Los Angeles at the Fallbrook and Laemmle Fairfax theaters. The Room is the vanity project of the mysterious Tommy Wiseau (how old is he, where is nationality, what is his net worth, where does his money come from... only the shadow knows) who wrote, directed, produced, and starred in, as well as distributed when no one else would. He intended it to be an emotional tragedy classic, but instead created what has been called the Citizin Kane of bad movies. The only tears on the premiere were tears of laughter, at least of those that weren't already at the ticket booth demanding their money back. The film was repackaged by calling it a black comedy. Tommy paid to keep it in a theater long enough to make it eligible for the Oscars. Even though the movie only ran about two weeks (with a sign warning "no refunds"), he paid to keep the bill board promoting it up for five years. Towards the end of its run, it started to become a cult classic of people coming to mock it. This lead to it becoming a midnight showing interactive cult film, like Rocky Horror Picture Show, including throwing spoons and footballs. The movie, the making of it, and the strange friendship with co-star Greg Sestero inspired both the book and movie "The Disaster Artist". Robyn Paris gathered the rest of the main cast and made (in my opinion) a hilarious mockumentary "The Room Actors... Where Are They Now?" (Real Life Event)

THE DISASTER ARTIST- 2017 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Based on Greg Sesteros book of the same name, The Disaster Artist is the story of how Tommy Wiseau (James Franco) and Greg Sestero (Dave Franco) became friends and went on to make "The Room".
The Room was a critical and commercial flop with it being frequently referred to as one of "The worst movies ever", but it then gained a huge cult audience and started screening sold out shows to fans all over the world.
One of my favourite movies.
Tremendous movie. Definitely the best of any of the films James Franco directed and he is absolutely brilliant as Tommy. He won the golden globe for best actor and had an awkward moment with the real Tommy onstage.
10/10 soundtrack and excellent cast. Dave Franco, Alison Brie and many others.
Its fascinating seeing how well they recreated the scenes from The Room. And hilarious watching A List actors like Zac Efron appear to play Chris R. Surreal.
Movie is both hilarious and heartwarming.

Retro Puppet Master
Ok, let's address the big thing first; yes everyone, playing a younger Andre Toulon in this one, is Mark from The Room himself, Greg Sestero! That's one of the main reasons this one has gotten a bit more attention in recent years, especially since Sestero included a couple of chapters in his book The Disaster Artist, about this one. Now the question is, which is actively the worst of the two films; The Room, or this? Well, this one is certainly a lot less active Incel-y than The Room, has some more endearingly silly ideas, and it wastes a lot less money (Tommy Wiseau infamously blew six million bucks on his flick!), but The Room is more funny-bad and gives a fascinating look into the mind of its creator. I would say, it would be quite the endurance test screening the two in a double bill.
As for the film as a whole, hoo boy, the previous Puppet Masters weren't really great, but this one is a true mess. Now the reason for the "Retro" concept might be down to marketing; Full Moon did licensed action figures, just as the adult market for that really became a bit thing, and they were big sellers. In fact, some say that the reason the company kept going at all was because of how well those things sold in Japan for some reason. So they needed to refresh the line, hence this one having the young Toulon first getting the magic, and with early versions of the Puppets, the 1.0 versions if you will. Of course, all this makes a mockery of the fact we already had flashbacks to this in 2 & 3, and not only does this wreck the continuity again (we've had like three different explanations for Blade's look now!), it looked so much better than this.
Yeah, the previous Puppet Masters were far from blockbusters, with that on occasion peeking in, but none of them feel as cheap as this one does. It mostly takes place around one building, and a train carriage that's clearly just set up in a different bit of the building, it has really tacky cinematography, and there are some horrible early 90s video toaster effects early on. As for the Puppets... oh dear. No David Allen, he already left the series and sadly passed away in 1999, and boy is he missed here. There are moments like at one point, if you watch the version in 4:3 aspect ratio, you blatantly see the hand lifting up one of the puppets! (Hey, since it's Sutekh behind events again, maybe it's Doctor Who's infamous Hand of Sutekh!) There's a lot more I could go on about, like how the Servants of Sutekh (sorry lads, that position is filled!) are complete knock-offs of The Strangers from Dark City, but I think I've said more than this film deserves already to be honest.
Thankfully, there is a way to watch this and actually enjoy the experience; over to you Rifftrax crew!
