The Room Thread

So I just got a bunch of official The Room tshirts from the official site and I thought I'd show you guys something Tommy sent me along with them.

I told him to sign whatever he felt like and just told him my name so he'd write whatever he felt like.
The poster says
"To Clayton, may all your dreams come true!
Love, Tommy Wiseau
P.S. be good *drawing of a heart with an arrow*"

And the card says
"To Clayton,
Love is blind!
Love Tommy Wiseau"

I'm getting the poster framed soon.

I think I've been to like 5 midnight showings of The Room ever since I figured out the local art house theater does them
Going again in January
 
Damn, I need to go catch a midnight screening of the Room. What are those like anyways? Do people really always throw spoons at the screen? I'd go for that alone. None of my friends like the Room and I somehow doubt that I'd be able to convince the missus to go with me though.

it's basically everyone just kinda sits in a dark theater and yells jokes at the screen for the duration
there's certain things that everyone in the theater is supposed to do at the same time such as "what candles/what music/what sexy dress" and "the door is ajar"
And yes, bring a big bag of plastic spoons because whenever the infamous picture of the spoon is on screen you've gotta yell "SPOONS" and chuck them at the screen
I've had showings where the people in the front of the theater and the people in the back got in a spoon fight

For all the drama Kiwis here, what do you suppose it is that Wiseau admires about Tennessee Williams? He's been invoked several times over the years in interviews, but there's really no discernable comparison between the two. Williams wrote about adultery, sure, but it wasn't usually his focus. (And was usually far less wan.)

(If anything, The Room is more Woyzeck than Williams: Fragmented, incomplete, and about a man being torn apart.)

My working theory is that Wiseau admires Williams for subliminal reasons, or at least reasons he doesn't want to dig too far deep into. I mean, what else are Williams's plays about if not people who prefer the comfort of illusion than face cold hard reality?

I recall that in the Disaster Artist Greg Sestero claims that Tommy Wiseau is a huge Brando fan and that led to him becoming attached to the movie version of Streetcar.
