>People are very strange these days. I used to know a girl; she had a dozen guys. One of them found out about it... beat her up so bad she ended up at a hospital on Guerrero Street.
What did he mean by this?

mark is subconsciously asking johnny to punish him for his having cuckolded him. johnny laughs because he can't even acknowledge the possibility of lisa's infidelity.
>>85759028
ha ha ha
>>85759028
Nothing. It was just a story.
>>85759184
This.

The Room is literally funnier than 95% of all comedy movies

fun fact from Sestero's book:
The Guerrero Street part was ad-libbed in by Greg to give the line at least some flavor. Wiseau used to live on Guerrero street. Being extremely paranoid about his private life, he went into an absolute shitfit when Greg said that line.
>>85759028
Haha what a story OP
>>85760041
you should also mention that he ad-libbed that bit because tommy wouldn't stop laughing when he said she went to hospital after getting beaten up
I didn't realize this came out in 2003. It looks like an 80's movie.
>>85760185
Wrong. He ad-libbed the line because Tommy was saying his lines with no emotion.
>Tommy and I did the exchange again. This time Tommy didn’t laugh. Instead, he said his line—“What a story, Mark”—with absolutely no emotion at all. This effect was, improbably, even weirder than the takes he had laughed in. Sandy gave up and we moved on.
>Then it was time to do the coverage shots of our individual closeups. In an attempt to loosen Tommy up a bit, I changed the line that had been provoking his laughter. Instead of “He beat her up so bad, she ended up in a hospital,” I ad-libbed, “He beat her up so bad, she ended up in a hospital on Guerrero Street.”

Ironic, considering how soulless Greg looked when I met him
I took a picture with him, but deleted it because I couldn't handle how much internal suffering was plastered onto his face
>>85760595
I imagine he could stop if he wanted to.
>>85760595
I guess that's what will happen to you when you try to help a friend out of the goodness of your heart and you're then relegated to being a joke for the rest of your life
I feel genuinely sorry for the guy, he could've become a B-lister
>>85760288
yeah, amazing how being able to focus a camera can have such a dramatic visual impact.
>>85760626
I don't think he can. It's clear that The Room is his main mode of profit, and he tried rejecting it but that got him nowhere. Kind of reminds me of Leonard Nimoy and the book "I Am Not Spock", to which the sequal was " I Am Spock".

>when you try to help a friend out of the goodness of your heart
He only did it because tommy tempted him with tons of money.
>>85760781
Yes, he was wrong. He didn't change the line because Tommy was laughing.
>>85760804
>>> In an attempt to loosen Tommy up a bit, I changed the line that had been provoking his laughter.
>>85760784
I don't really believe that. This might be gullible of me, but I can really imagine somebody so touched by Tommy's childlike ambition and dream that they'd strive to help him feel accomplished.
>>85760912
That doesn't make you gullible.
>>85759028
He means people are very strange these days.

Fun fact: In the original script, Denny is named Billy, and in his first scene rather than asking Lisa if he can kiss her, he asks Lisa if he can kiss Johnny.
