60 of 140 · most liked firstDolemite Is My Name w/ Eddy Murphy is a fantastic watch — a biopic on the rise of Rudy Ray Moore, leading into his Dolemite film in 1975; it’s what The Disaster Artist is for The Room. Great fun double bill for fans of the 70s blaxploitation era. #filmsky #blaxploitation #dolemite #grindhouse

neutral · AI labelView post →I once made a list of 7 movies that fit this criteria. The Room, because duh. This movie is great because it is so terrible and sincerely thinks it is great. The story behind the movie is just as fantastic. If you must, get a hold of The Disaster Artist as an audio book. It is fantastic. Ignore and forget that piss tier James Franco movie that the book was based on. The book is so much better and it is hysterical to listen to in Greg's own voice + his Tommy impressions are perfect.…

neutral · AI labelView post →This weekend's watch. A double feature. THE ROOM, the WTF cult film considered one of the worst ever made, by the mysterious Tommy Wisseau for a staggering $6.5M... and THE DISASTER ARTIST, about the making of said film, with James Franco as Wisseau. Here's the former: archive.org/details/ther...
neutral · AI labelView post →My copy of The Disaster Artist just arrived and i am very excited to dig into it, i must know how a movie like The Room happened
positive · AI labelView post →Theres going to be a showing of The Room (yea that one) near me and in preparation Im trying to read through The Disaster Artist about the making of the movie and 1) This is one book I needed to experience via audiobook specifically bc the reader does Tommy's accent lmao 2) Jesus Fucking Christ
positive · AI labelView post →I have a lot of love with The Room. On top of the joy of introducing to so many people, I’m also quite obsessed with the lore surrounding it. The Disaster Artist book (or in my case audiobook) is something I highly recommend for anyone curious to learn more about this crazy movie to check out!
positive · AI labelView post →I finished The Disaster Artist and man, what a really good read. I rec watching The Room before and after reading TDA and honestly if you dont read TDA I still recommend watching TR bc itll definitely dispell any imposter syndrome u have, but TDA puts a new perspective on that awful movie lol
positive · AI labelView post →THE ROOM is back at The Frida Cinema on March 13th, with our best friend- the star of THE ROOM and best-selling author of The Disaster Artist, Greg Sestero, joining us for the fun to introduce the film in-person 🏈 🎟️: thefridacinema.org/movies/the-r...

neutral · AI labelView post →This movie pretty much got me through 2013-2014. I couldn't watch it again without Rifftrax. I highly recommend the book The Disaster Artist (not the movie) that offers a behind the scenes look into the weirdness of the movie and the writer/producer/director.
positive · AI labelView post →According to the Disaster Artist movie, Greg Sestero met Tommy Wiseau on 7/13/1998 at an acting class. That was my 15th birthday. Coincidence? I think not.
neutral · AI labelView post →In the Disaster Artist, Greg sestero said the movie moved Tommy and deeply resonated with him (prob bc Tommy has lied about his own identity). He named Greg’s character Mark after the guy he thought played Tom Ripley… Mark Damon lol
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh my lord do I love watching The Room, it's just so perfectly quotable! "Anyway, how's your sex life?" 😂 And that awkward scene where he fucks her dress? Or the sheets? So delightfully unhinged. I actually read the book Greg wrote about how he met Tommy and how the movie got made, production etc, also delightfully unhinged. And the Disaster Artist movie was great too. Can you tell I love The Room? 👀
positive · AI labelView post →Just thinking about The Disaster Artist, and how it's an astonishing book and a terrible film. And it's because the book is about power dynamics and abuse and the film is about a kooky weirdo.
negative · AI labelView post →Greg Sestero (The Room, The Disaster Artist) was in the teaser trailer for #BigShark, but he does not appear in the eventual movie. Bless him for being willing to try working with Tommy again! 😄 There didn't seem to be any grudges on either side. Maybe he had a conflict. #FrightClub
neutral · AI labelView post →If you really want to go down the rabbit hole on this one, there's a good film from 2017 called "The Disaster Artist" that's worth a watch. 👍
positive · AI labelView post →I finally watched The Room Despite its ironic popularity and even seeing the movie The Disaster Artist I just never felt the desire to actually watch it but seeing Bob Odenkirk remaking the film, i decided to watch it with my best friend and it was a fucking blast Equal parts hilarious and cringe
positive · AI labelView post →The Disaster Artist wasn't even supposed to be about bad filmmaking, James Franco just showed up and made a terrible film, so they kept it in.
neutral · AI labelView post →#TBRuary 14 This miiight be a stretch but DisneyWar. I like behind the scenes facts about movies. I'm the annoying person with little movie factoids no one cares about. If you're like that, too, I rec: The Disaster Artist, about the making of the movie The Room. The book's better than the movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Someone should make a Disaster Artist-style movie about American Movie/Coven but slyly turn it into a Mike Schank biopic, showcasing a true role model for male friendship and the way forward in these atomized times. But unlike The Disaster Artist, they should make a good movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →There was a related movie called [The Disaster Artist](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Disaster_Artist_(film)) about The Room, made by one of the Francos. I’ve seen that, but not The Room. Still strikes me as pretty fucking weird though.
neutral · AI labelView post →I talked about how I hated the Leprechaun book because the writer made it about himself. You know what did this the worst: The Disaster Artist movie. The movie uses the making of The Room to at every moment talk about James Franco and his friends and family not the actual story.
negative · AI labelView post →if you watch the Disaster Artist first, you’ll understand a lot of the lore & also be like “how bad could this movie actually be?” & then you’ll see The Room & be like “jfc” we could watch it tomorrow if you have your heart set on another film for today
positive · AI labelView post →I don't like his material after "The Room", it feels way too unauthentic and forced self-parody to me, even if he manages to make it funny bad again (but not really same tone as the movie). In "The Room" he's definitely being his authentic self trying to make what his idea of "good" movie was, you can read about it in Greg Sestero's (Mark in the movie) and Tom Bissell book "The Disaster Artist" if you doubt with what intention he made the movie. Or even listen to it in audiobok form, Greg does…
neutral · AI labelView post →The Disaster Artist is one of my favorite books, and the movie doesn’t hold a candle to it. Haven’t heard of The October Film Haunt, but it sounds interesting.
positive · AI labelView post →I don't know if I'd call it a biopic per se, but I would love a movie about the making of The Wizard of Oz in the vein of Ed Wood or The Disaster Artist. Margaret Hamilton's story is under-represented compared to Judy Garland.
neutral · AI labelView post →You see, because Room (2015) has a whole separate Wikipedia page for all of its nominations and awards, while The Room (2003) got a movie called The Disaster Artist about the making-of. Hopefully this clears up why everyone was wrong to give my joke 0 likes and 0 reskeets.
neutral · AI labelView post →It seems that the Disaster Artist movie ( or at least James Franco) might've killed off the ironic fanbase for the Room. That long reconstruction of scenes from the Room might've been the exact moment.
neutral · AI labelView post →#NovelleVague fillm: 1) the filiming of "Breathless" ("Un Boute de Souffle") mirrors director #RichardLinklater 's own indie movie shoots. 2) #JeanLucGodard is depicted like #EdWood in Tim Burton's bio, and #TommyWiseau in "The Disaster Artist". Stylish fun.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you’ve never read The Disaster Artist it’s a hoot, the filming was just as weird as the film. (The Disaster Artist movie is completely superfluous though)
neutral · AI labelView post →The Disaster Artist (2017) Do you like this movie about the making of The Room starring James and Dave Franco? My guests to discuss that film year: Matthew Anderson and Saleah Blancaflor #movies #filmsky
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched The Room (2003) with @perrupls.bsky.social, it was their first time. What a movie. I really ought to pick up a copy of The Disaster Artist book
neutral · AI labelView post →It's a possibility. I recommend the book "the Disaster Artist" written by Mark's actor, as it gives some insight on the behind the scenes stuff. They adapted that into a movie as well, but like most 'based on true story' materials it changes a few events here and there.
neutral · AI labelView post →Finished Frankenstein, thought it was ok, next book is The Disaster Artist by Greg Sestero #BookSky #cinema #film #movies #tommywiseau
neutral · AI labelView post →what a story Maddy also I recommend The Disaster Artist on audiobook bc Greg reads it and his impression of Tommy is absolutely unmatched. The book and movie differ thematically too.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Disaster Artist (Greg Sestero's book, not the Franco movie) is very good and has lots of fun "behind the scenes" trivia that makes some parts of the movie even funnier and other parts very sad. The Franco movie was just ok at best though.
neutral · AI labelView post →Greg Sestero. And of course that's not his character name (oh hi Mark), but real name. The book is called The Disaster Artist, and I think it's been made into a movie as well?
neutral · AI labelView post →The Disaster Artist is a fantastic movie about why The Room is the way it is. It elevates The Room into a bad movie worth studying.
positive · AI labelView post →i did not/will not watch The Disaster Artist (2017) about the making of this film due to the Franco of it all (Senior, not Junior) and i'm discomfited by how this cover's depiction so closely resembles Sebastian Stan to me. but I'm gonna do it!!
negative · AI labelView post →I was going to say that the only time I could remember doing that was watching The Room before watching The Disaster Artist.... But then I remembered that I watched every single Doctor Who episode before watching the movie. And while I definitely enjoyed watching it as a whole...
neutral · AI labelView post →The colorised version makes it more bearable. Also the ED WOOD film gives you all the background to it being made. It's like watching The Disaster Artist before watching The Room
neutral · AI labelView post →A good read is a book called "The Disaster Artist" it talks about the making of the best awful movie all time called "the room". Its such a fascinating and oddly uplifting book.
neutral · AI labelView post →My ★★★★ review of The Disaster Artist on @letterboxd: boxd.it/pZg59
positive · AI labelView post →Last night we watched #TheDisasterArtist and it was a fun time. It made me remember many years ago watching #TheRoom in a theatre and spoons being thrown and people running across the stage. It’s a windy day out today. Making for a chilly start to the day.
positive · AI labelView post →I'm so sad I'll skip ahead to a more recent 5-star rating: THE DISASTER ARTIST (i.e. THE ROOM memoir). If you liked the movie adaptation and/or were let down by the movie, the book is SO much more mind-boggling. Consider it on audiobook so you can hear Greg Sestero do his mom's French accent.
positive · AI labelView post →can also recommend "the Disaster Artist" book by Greg Sestero (Mark's actor), really enjoyed that one! (there's a movie about it too but i haven't watched it)
neutral · AI labelView post →It's why THE DISASTER ARTIST leaves a bad taste in my mouth: The movie is VERY clear that Wiseau is at best mentally ill and at worst an abusive creep, but then it gives him a fairy tale triumph ending anyway and trotted the real guy out for a celebratory press tour.
negative · AI labelView post →You should read “The Disaster Artist.” It’s a tell-all by Greg Sestero (the guy who played Mark in the movie) about the production of The Room and how batshit insane Tommy Wiseau is. It’s WILD.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'd settle for the Disaster Artist-style tell-all book on the making of the film.
neutral · AI labelView post →First time seeing The Disaster Artist since 2017. I love the Room - this movie is… okay. I really enjoy James Franco as Tommy Wiseau, he did a good job. Greg Sestero’s actual book is so much better tho. Still, it’s a decent enough film.

neutral · AI labelView post →anyway I think they should make a film out of The Disaster Artist
positive · AI labelView post →👎🎬Today in #FilmHistory🎬👎 "The Disaster Artist"(2017) was released. The movie is based on the memoir The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside The Room, The Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell. #OTD
