Recommend me a very funny film on any major streaming service

[Mrs Miggins]

The Room is frequently on (in normal times) at the Prince Charles in Leicester Square, sometimes with Tommy Wiseau there in person. I saw the films there in a double bill and it is truly godawful.

There's a load of audience participation stuff too -- like people throwing plastic spoons and quoting the dialogue. Astounding that loads of people have obviously seen it multiple times.

Oh wow! Thanks for that. Well when lockdown is over, I'll look out for it being on again. I love the Prince Charles cinema.

Honestly, you won't thank me...

Oh but I will! I really want to see it in all its horror

 

[Sue]

Hah. Seeing it right after The Disaster Artist showed up incredibly clearly just how bad the quality of absolutely everything in it is.

You need to report back when you've seen it. .

I knew you'd have seen it as you're a film person.

I'd love to see the actual film within that film. Any idea where it can be found?

I saw it on a cheeky torrent. It looks like it's not on any major streaming platforms, but you can buy the DVD, or follow Sue 's advice - though fuck knows when the cinemas will reopen again

It took me two gos to watch it - alcohol and weed help! It is appalling but I'm glad I watched it as it made me laugh so much
here's a sample of its glorious awfulness:

Oh hi Mark!

I've only read the book of The Disaster Artist and it's the type of book which made me laugh out loud on public transport. It's one of those cases where I didn't watch the film because I couldn't imagine it living up to the book. After I read it, I made the mistake of watching The Room sober and on my own. It probably works far better with a drunken crowd, somewhere like The Prince Charles. It feels like it was made by aliens who once encountered humans and who have no idea how they function. Once you've seen 20 minutes of it, it just stays bad in the same one-note way.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Sounds like the story of the film is way better than the actual film

Yes, I was astounded to discover it's not that long (99 mins apparently) because it felt much, much, much longer. Probably because it has no redeeming features at all.

Reno, I too was sober and marvelling at all the people quoting along. Astonishing.

Definitely.
