The Disaster Artist (2013)

from Giant Geek vs. Mega n00b Hosted by Eric Johnson and Emily Jones

Up-front caveat: If you haven't seen "The Room," go watch it. Then come back to this post. In case you ignored that instruction and are still reading ignorantly, "The Room" is widely considered to be one of the worst movies ever made -- and it's wonderful. Also, insane. Even more wonderful was the fact that one of its stars, Greg Sestero, wrote a tell-all book in 2013 about everything that happened behind the scenes; "The Disaster Artist" shows that the insanity captured on the screen was only a glimmer of everything happening behind the scenes. This week, Emily and I read "The Disaster Artist" and discussed what its revelations mean for our shared fandom of "The Room." Can't listen right now because you're very busy right now and have to go? Then subscribe to Giant Geek vs. Mega n00b on iTunes! You can buy "The Room" on DVD or Blu-Ray, and "The Disaster Artist" is available pretty much anywhere you'd find books. To share your favorite Tommy Wiseau quotes or weigh in on anything else we discussed this week, email us at [email protected]. And you should follow us on Twitter and like our Facebook page. We'll be back next week to talk about "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" with two special guest n00bs. See you then!
