>>85192416
Yeah, the book is hysterical but at the same time I think there's emotional levels to it that Franco and Rogen probably won't be able to convey in their film. Tommy Wiseau seemed like a very troubled and complex person, I hope they don't just play him for laughs.

It's there, but not cartoonish. I'd rather him be a tad more conservative with the impression than going overboard.

Franco always seems like a douche, I can only see him as "actor guy" and never a character

>>85192792
Apparently it has the heart, they're all capable dramatic actors as well.

>>85192799
Yeah, listening back, I can vaguely hear it, his lines are pretty short and sporadic here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fqAFCb4-ec

>>85192207
Maybe it's just me but he 100% nails the way he came out through that door. His vocal impression and line delivery were way off though. I expected better in that department.

You also have to keep in mind that Tommy dubbed over so many of his lines in post-production, including the scene recreated in the trailer. Movies that have recreated music or film scenes from real life are always so hit or miss for me because its hard not to reference the source material.

Tommy had to dub most if not all his performance because it was mostly wrong or incomprehensible.

>>85194236
... so James Franco secretly makes his lines sound wrong with the wrong expressions due to Tommy redubbing it?

GENIUS

>>85194271

Maybe they will actually show that the dialogue had to be dubbed.

I applaud the make up department for the work they did on James Franco. They made him look just enough like Wiseau while not trying to make him look too much like him where he'd look absolutely ridiculous on camera.

You're going to sit back and call this a film adaption of the book? That's fine. Have fun. It just seems kind of stale and cringey to me. It's like when you here someone talk about memes in person or say OMG out loud. Not going to end well. The movie was made in 03. Even the late bloomers were done in 2013. I'll give anything a chance but this is by no means ahead of its time of clever.

... what's so funny? That is one of the lines from the movie

What else did you want them to call it? The death of Tommy? Too cliche

I hope there's a scene that shows his childhood in Poland.

i think that he's intentionally not doing the accent in the scene because IIRC tommy dubbed over the original lines and i think that will be something covered later in the movie. so it'll fit, but it's not 1:1 right now to the finished movie

>>85195924
Why do people keep spamming this? That's his natural accent, it's not like Tommy sounds like James Franco in everyday life and only put on a different voice for the dub.

>>85195385
here's a piece Franco wrote about the book when it came out

the only people who will like this are redditors who thought the interview was funny and worth watching

>>85196080
The book goes way deeper than that.
The man talks about Tommy as a person a lot.
The movie production was about half the book.

>>85196084

It's a meme movie about a meme movie.

Double the memes, double the reddit

>>85196080
Nah the book isn't really about the movie at all. It's about this bizarre friendship tommy strikes up with the author/best friend actor in the movie. The vast majority of the book is an exploration into the weird, messed up mind of tommy. Any scenes about the actual movie always end up relating to how weird tommy is. Hell, the book is worth reading for tommys "backstory" alone.

Coming right up

Fucking plebs. He's not trying to do an impression because then it would seem like he's making fun of Tommy. They want to communicate his heart and passion and not have the audience distracted by him just doing a silly voice.

This is the same reason Phillip Seymour Hoffman didn't do an exact copy of Capote because then it just turns into caricature. This is not meant to be Room 2.0. It's a movie about outsiders trying to make it in Hollywood. Hamming it up and trying to do a silly voice would just cheapen the movie. This is why Franco is a successful and accomplished actor and you're all just talentless cucks.

Fuck, I still can't believe you idiots haven't figured it out yet. Every time I think you morons can't sink any lower as filthy phillistines who don't know anything about movies and every time you exceed my expectations.

Go back to shit posting about DC. You don't deserve kino like this.

>idiots still think this movie is trying to be a remake of the room.

>>85197521
I've never seen TW not be TW. You're not making sense. This is about the making of the room. Not the room with franco and company.

Face it. Franco can't do TW unless he is mimicing scenes from the room. That would require talent.

>>85197521

Tommy Wiseau is a finantial genius. He's going to release a 3D edition to keep the rights some more years, just like George Lucas

YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE CITIZEN KANE OF BAD MOVIES?!?
How can you claim you've seen a bad movie when you haven't seen the worst movie ever.
YOU CAN'T RATE 1/10s until you watch this movies, and this movie will be the only 1/10 approved. So you can't rate 1/10 after seeing it also.

And in my opinion just the fact that this got release is a monumental feat. So, I don't even rate it that low.

Is it not true he dubbed over his lines in post?

>>85221869
He did. Most of the audio recorded during filming ended up being unusable, so most of it had to be dubbed over, including that scene. It's almost a given that the need for dubbing is going to be addressed in the movie because it's another source of comedy.

The way Franco gives the line is probably a lot like Tommy gave it after hours of failing to get the take right: weak and somewhat confused. The angry, more confident speech we're used to was the result of dubbing, which was probably easier to get right because Tommy didn't have to follow direction or remember the lines.

I can't tell you, it's confidential. Anyway, how's your sex life?

Tommy Wiseau is unironically one of the people who inspire me in life

guy goes against all the odds and made his dream come true

also I really like "unique" people like him. Like someone already said ITT, he';s complex

Anyone else still suspicious about where Tommy got all his money from?

The way the book just said "yeah he started out with literally no money but then sold cheap toys to tourists until he could afford real estate" just sounds too unbelievable.
Greg made some good points against the money laundering theory but it all still seems fishy, like the old lady and the dead guy that were listed as producers. Does Tommy really seem like someone with enough social skills to convince two rich people they should give him millions of dollars for an amateur film?

>>85223402
>sold cheap toys to tourists

sounds like child prostitution

>>85223162
Unironically a good scene.

>>85223402
>sounds too unbelievable.
It's basically how Arnold Schwarzenegger got rich. When he moved to the US, he had a job managing a gym, then he quickly started mail-order fitness and bricklaying businesses and funneled that money into real estate. He became a millionaire long before he ever got into movies.

Tommy didn't even get by purely on luck and work. Greg hints heavily that his wealthy benefactors (Drew Cafferty and the dead lady listed as a producer of the movie) are what got him started in the real estate business. Considering that he probably had support along the way, the story is pretty believable.

>>85198637
Yes, since New Line Cinema is backing it and A24 usually distributes in normal theaters

Is The Room worth watching? I enjoy the Nostalgia Critic's review of it -- yeah, I said it -- but I'm not sure I want to see it.

It's directed by James Franco, his other directed films are indie dramas.
It's not just going to be AYY WEED OH HI MARK LMAO. I genuinely believe Franco has respect for the source material, and the extremely positive reception from SXSW might be indication of that.

Seth Rogen has no hand in the writing of it so there's nothing to fear there.

I can't wait for the sissy faggot scene. Shit's gonna be hilarious.

How is it even possible for them to make this movie?

The original has to have some kind of copyright protection. Did they sell all the intellectual property rights or something?

>>85225515
It's based on a book about the movie written by the actor that played Mark. Tommy Wiseau knows they're making it and even has a cameo.

>>85225515
Do you know what a parody is?

>>85225386
I'm with this anon, Franco seemed to really connect with the material at the SXSW Q&A. He read the book before ever even seeing the movie and spoke how strangely inspiring it was. Which makes me happy to hear, because I felt the same exact way, the novel is one of my favorites of recent memory. I hope they include Greg's internal, familial and financial struggles as well. Everyone's worried about Tommy being done right, when really, I think Greg's character deserves just as much attention.

Overall the majority of the movie looks like parody, but it looks like they're also copying scenes straight out of the movie, which would violate copyright.

>>85225586
Even if it's based on the book, which is based on the movie, you can't recreate identical scenes without the copyright owner's permission.

If Tommy Wiseau gave them permission then that's a different story. I guess he's standing to make some bank off this too so that makes a lot of sense.

Making a """"parody"""" of something, and that thing you made being a "parody" under United States parody law (and thus Fair Use) are distinctly different things which I won't bother going into. You can google it or go take a class in intellectual property law.

>The Disaster Artist is an award-winning 2013 non-fiction book written by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell. Sestero reveals the troubled development and production of the 2003 cult film The Room while detailing his own struggles as a starving young actor and his relationship with the mysterious Tommy Wiseau. The book focuses on the difficulties and odd experiences Sestero had behind the scenes and his unlikely friendship with Wiseau.

The concept of parody law is literally too difficult for your pea brain to comprehend and it's making me laugh. Seriously, google Fair Use and Parody.

You think IP attorneys just go to court and say, "Your Honor, I know we copied the scene word for word and made millions off their work, but it's just a parody!" "CASE CLOSED!"

No, you fucking retard.

>>85226002
Nope. There are a few auition tapes that have popped up, but that's it. Weirdly enough, most of them have much better acting than the final movie. Here's Tommy with black Lisa:

IIRC, according to Greg, all of the footage still exists, but Tommy won't let anyone use it. Which is a shame, because it's probably amazing.
